i haven't really had alot of time to come and blog... but this is wat has been happening so far... i've been studying doing my last few assignments for the semester and calculating the % from my various assignments and quizzes or tests that i've accumulated... and i must say it hasn't been very impressive.. but i've not failed anything thus far based on my percentages.. but i know i haven't done great either... haiz... and sianzzz... uni has been a blast.. but i seriously can't stop thinking about assignments when are they due and how much more marks i should need... sometimes just really scary when i think about it.. the past week other than going out for dinner with Jeremy, De Xin and Peggy for dinner there hasn't been much else happening... other than going to cottessloe again on sunday.. but it was more fun this time as more people came and brought other stuff with them.. hahaha.. i just hope and pray that i can get through this semester unscathed and go back to singapore a happy happy person.. ohhhh.. one thing i forgot to mention.. haha.. during our last cell as just a cell we made a video.. hahaha..
Till next time...

Just stuff....
Hey everyone... been pretty busy lately.. don't really have alot of time to post.. exams are coming.. and i still have assignments to do... god save us all.. omg.. just last sunday went down to cottesloe beach and the weather was so good.. the beaches here are sooo nice.. the sand oh so fine that its a little hard to walk and the water was soo good, it was clear, but so cold compared to the temp out of the water.. everytime i went into the water it was so cold haha.. the temp out of the water was abt 33.5 deg.. nice and warm.. but u don't really feel the heat when ur in the sun, and i think that can be the worse u don't realize you're gonna get burnt.. hahaha..

Just went out with Amelia, Kershia, De Xin and Gaby. Gaby brought along her boyfriend and his sister to dinner with us at freo a place called Clancy's.. thought we could have had crabs but was dissappointed that they didn't have it.. but there was something called Mango beer over there.. it was so interesting and tasted good.. in the end we had food like a seafood platter, seafood paella (Dunno if its the right spelling..) anyway its a dish served with rice in a tomato based sauce with all the seafood ingredients.. and also the Geraldton whiting fillets basically pieces of fish.. The food was good.. but the company was better... :) after dinner Gaby and gang went home and the rest of ust went to watch a movie.. called my Best Friends girl..
Its a pretty nice comedy.. though there weren't alot of laughing parts.. i thought that the show was pretty decent.. i just love katehudson.. don't u think she's hot?

random thoughts..
Hey all..
i guess its been a while... maybe just almost a week.. but haha.. just felt bored so well.. anywayz.. as i spend my time here in perth.. i can't help but be thankful for the friends i have over here.. cuz i think without them my life would be a total bore and i don't think i could survive uni.. they are also my family away from home.. i couldn't thank my dad more for giving me this opportunity to be able to study here.. if not i guess i'll probably be working back home.. but since i've been here i think i've learnt really much more independence.. though i would have been able to do it in singapore but i think being here has taught me so much more.. i can't wait till my exams are over and i can go back home to see me gf and family... and also food !!! lol.. Oh yeah.. and read on at your expense if u haven't watched The Duchess..
I went to watch The Dutches because i saw it was based on a true story.. and who doesn't love to watch a show based on a true story? because everything is very real.. this show was really about a girl at such a young age got married to the duke of devonshire and her sole purpose from the start was to bear him a male heir.. and it just didn't happen.. till many many years later and then she was rewarded by her husband.. a husband because rich and powerful could just do anything he wished and pleased.. i think the movie was pretty well done.. i just love true stories.. i'd say give it 3 stars.. but thats just me..

The past week...
Its been a pretty good week.. haha.. best of all there was no test to worry about... so it felt so good not having to really study harder for anything.. anywayz the exam timetable is out and i think that is is pretty crap.. First of all its like the first week just after the study break.. and Secondly i finish within the first week.. lastly.. is the 10th 11th 12th and 14th.. its total crap.. On tuesday i went out with de xin and my cousin amelia as daniel was unable to go because he needed to finish his assignments.. lol.. and we had some really good nachos.. it was in Freo, called Zapata's... on tuesday nights this place is really crowded.. so i believe there is a need to make reservations... we didn't but we were lucky to get a table.. haha..Beef Nachos with GuacamoleBeef and Chicken TacosThis was the burritos
This was the food that we ordered... it was a very good meal actually... at the end of it i was so stuffed but as it was a tuesday.. there was a gelare's just below the restaurant and we were still able to down some waffles.. and only other thing i can think of was yesterdays spring feast.. it was a good thing organized i think by the international student services in UWA where it was a foodfair... so many people from all over the uni and out of it were selling mainly food and desserts.. and drinks too.. it was so crowded and it was so lively.. it was a good night to enjoy.. i bought a sennheiser cx300.. maybe a little pricy but still cheaper than the aurvana from creative that i had before.. but i think its so worth it.. the sound is so good.. and there is a 2 yr warranty..

one of the highlights of the day was in the night.. and it started at 8pm.. they were called the v6 hylux heroes or something.. it was a group of 4 in the toyota hylux vehicles.. and they performed some really cool tricks.. just look above see how close they were travelling next to each other without even touching.. it was awesome.. the end of the day of course ended with fireworks.. and i for one really will never get sick of watching fireworks..

This was probably one of the coolest things in the show.. there was this ikea booth and they too sell the showbag which included a stuffed toy of a tortoise and some other things as well.. but it also included a photo to be taken that would go onto the cover of the latest ikea catalogue.. lol.. de xin bought the show bag and then we went to take the photo... looks damn cool right? hahaha...

Love..
Just today i was watching the news.. and i saw this story on a famous tv doctor who came down with cancer.. and i think his story was pretty touching.. he was actually diagnosed to have between 6 to 12 months to live.. and 2 yrs later he still lives.. and in that journey that he has been fighting the cancer tumor when it reoccurs and such he still fights on.. and in the 2 yrs since he was diagnosed.. the thing that has kept him going is the love from his wife and family.. i think love is such a powerful thing that it can overcome most things.. especially when you have the support of those that love you.. over the past few weeks i've also watched things with really good meanings.. Like recently i wastched the movie penelope and though i knew that the show was like a chick flick.. i kinda enjoyed... why you might ask?? well you can expect it to be about the usual things but the end of the story was all about people realizing things about accepting things about themselves and not hiding from themselves.. live life to the fullest no matter what you may look like no matter what others may think of you.. A person should always just live life the way they want it to be..
Till next time..
