this is a food post

remember that i said i have 4 papers spread within 4 weeks? after every 1 or 2 papers, my friends and i will have a small celebration. in fact, we celebrated thrice, lol, and each celebration consists of food, of course. lol. 

for our first celebration, which is after biochem's examination, sarah and i had nando's ! the nando's here taste the same in msia but the price..? TOTALLY DIFFERENT! a quarter of a chicken cost aud 10++ , which is equivalent to rm 30+ . omgod rite? lol. but sarah and i craved for nando's that day, n also after exam ma..*excuses* so.. we ordered the meat platter. =-= i forgot wat's it really called la. in short, the meal oni have meat la, chicken wings, half of a chicken and tenderloins. lol. it's really a lot. but the two of us manage to finish it. hoho! carnivores!!! i used my hp to take the pics de.. hence the small pics :)

after:

2nd celebration, me, sarah, junior and cindy went to eat at Sitar, a Indian restaurant. 4 roti canai cost around  3 dollar. lol. okla.. but the curry is very pricey. aud 10-15 for a small bowl. VERY SMALL indeed. we ordered a few dishes only, just two curries, 8 roti canai (prata n something spinach*not bad* lol) , starter platter, and a bowl of yellow rice.(very nice taste wan). the roti canai also very different lo. bigger n a lil soggy. not crunchy. prefer crispy ones. my fave is the curry, the rice and the start platter. oh oh n we have complimentary papadum also!

last time calvin used to cook papadum n curry for me wan... missed those timess..

sorry ah dun have my face...i looked terribly horrible. lol :) okla gotta stop typing n

get some sleep 1st.. going to work at 10pm till 6am tonite. lol. i know.. siao. :)

omigod it's finally over~

2 weeks of exams. well it's actually just 4 papers =-= but the exam dates were so messed up. so exhausting, know? sort of wanted to give up after the 3rd paper. but nola... i'm not that easily defeated. umph! :) 

now that exams have finally ended, i can switch back to my relax mode that i yearned for months. this sem has been very hectic! no kiddin. it's a total whirlwind semester . and i foresee another one in next semester. cos next sem's subjects are mostly science subjects, which means more memorizing.(formulas, freaking absurd drug names, mechanisms n etc) i am so not looking forward to all of those nasty subjects. i am however, looking forward to 3rd year's subjects, mainly practicals related to nutrition, for instance, women's health n professional practice for community nutrition. less science subjects, more of managing nutrition projects. wee!!!! :) so much fun~

anywayz, holidays have started and i only have less than a month to enjoy em. like so unfair. y those students in sg have 3 months of hols wan? T_T how can like tat? sob sob! so how am i spending my hols? well, nothing much really . lol.  was supposed to go melbourne. but  i changed my mind n will be staying here and work instead. prolly some other time. maybe at end of the year, okay? sorry cindy and bel :) hugs!! u peeps have fun alrite? 

oh btw, i bought a red dress for my sis's wedding already. happY!!! quite expensive for a simple dress though. will only show it to u guys on my sis's wedding ~~ :P ohh less than 6 weeks. can't wait can't wait.!!!!! can't wait to c calvin oso!! :P 

must be wondering y this post only consists of words. =-=''the  problem lies in my stupid internet connection. so slow that i can't upload a single thing with it. it was supposed to be refreshed like eons ago, but it didn't. the landlord said it was due to some unforeseen circumstances.. blalaalbala excuses la i really can;t live without the internet. and i'm hostile when my internet is unusable. like i have pms or sumthing. speaking of pms, u know i was so freaking stressed bout my exams that my menses came twice during my exam period. that twice within 13 days. =-='' n it diminished just a day after my final paper. absurd. =-=''

 i think i'm really pressured bout studying here in aussie n really trying my hardest to achieve good grades. no time to have fun n etc. just study study, no fun. it's a like a responsibility for me to get good grades, as i would not want  my parents to be disappointed in me. n since they have spent so much on my studies, how can i fail them, rite? n for my family, a pass is not enough. hai... n just the other day, my father told me that i can continue to study another year if i want to. (sounds unwillingly) initially i was happy but after a few moments, i was thinking, if i could go on like this for another 2 years and a half. not that i dun like the course that i'm doing, i love it. but.. like.. is it worth it? my parents have never wanted me to study this course. but because of my passion for it, they give in.. hai..so many frustrations, u know? n let's say i want to swap my course to dietetics, i will need to wait till early next year to know if i got in or not. wtf . and a lil bird told me that the GPA to enter dietetics might increase next year and looking at next sem's subjects, i might not be able to maintain my gpa. omgod. it's like as though God does not want me to study dietetics. it's like a sin or sumthing. maybe He wants to challenge me. wants to c how much i really want this.... haih.

anywayz.. just a few hours ago, due to boredom, i started blog hopping and a particular blog grabbed my attention. this gurl is really rich. i mean superbly rich. till the extent that she can have her very own HUGE (read: massive) collection of prada, gucci, lv and burberry bags. ok, i think everyone will surely say that i'm envy of her. but i'm actually not. instead, i despise ppl like her. mainly because she's unemployed( she's 21 n currently bumming around doing ntg) and she's using her family's money on those branded stuffs. i will not criticize her if she actually used her own money( as in work) to buy those branded stuffs. i felt that she is quite spoilt lor.' dunno la, for me, just does not seem rite to me.

okay better stop typing now~~ ~:) will update another post asap with pics~~ till then~

it's that time again..

yeap . exam's around the corner and i've been studying my arse off lately..yea just lately.. lol... damn. i procrastinate too much already! hai.. and i'm actually hoping that this sem's results will be better compared to last sem's. which is quite terrible. *finger crossed*

so many unhappy events have been happening in my life lately. just got to know that i won't be able to do another year here *that i yearn for so much*  as the fees for 2010 will be $10500 a sem. like omygod rite? that's like a whopping $21000 for a year. O.O

 friends have been telling me that it's worth it cos studying is like an investment and with the dietetics qualifications, it is easier to get job, the pay is higher n etc... but i just feel bad about it. it's just too expensive. well, i said to myself that after i graduate at the end of 2009, i will get a job n after a year or two, i might do masters or sumthing. prolly that's a better idea...hm..

doing dietetics is my ultimate dream.... but.. sadly, i can never achieve it..

actually wanted to cry so badly when i know about the bad news. but was in the city..tried very hard to hold my tears till i got into the toilet... and cried n cried. haven't cried like that for such a long time.. tears just kept falling ... whenever someone brought that subject up, i just can't help it..i will cry.. eventho i try not to....hai.. life goes on. :) be posimistic! a word that learn from tv. :) 

enough of the depressing part, gonna put some photos from my hp, during my exam preparation. lol

This is the Garden Point's library and i study here most of the time. i just can't study at home.

lol

dun be shocked. this pic was taken a few days before my physio midterm exam!

yesterday's group discussion on epidemilogy. omygod the heated argument! lol

so frustrating...

oh btw,  this song really made my day.. :) such an optimistic song. :) 

it's natasha's Pocketful Of Sunshine. :)

outing with sarah part 2

so the next morning, we walked to the bus stop to go to uni and i realized that the 10 minutes walk was short. hmm.. weird rite.. that nite, the walk seemed forever yet in the morning, i felt it's quite short. anywayz, it was that day we were informed bout Dr Ron's brain cancer. :(

guess it actually dampens our mood a lil.during our journey to the Indooroopilly's shopping mall we were silent most of the time. we did however,  ended up talking bout ghost n supernatural stuffs... which is sarah's fave topic. she really like ghost stories/shows! can be best buddies with my bf already. hehe. but nah.. i cannot.. i very takut of these stuffs.. *goosebumps*

upon reaching the mall, we went to grab something to eat. n that day, i craved for chinese food and so i got myself this!! 

it's like economy rice la.. but very pricey indeed.. 8.50 dollar for a small plate.. but i think the ppl working there were very generous. i mean, look at my plate! it's overflowing with food. like mountain man..some of the food were falling off from the plate as well. but they didn't charge me extra wor.. :P n needless to say, the food taste awesome! well, not all chinese food in aussie sux. :)

oklaaa.. will just upload the pics . lazy to blog liao. :)
