A Short Breath

Finally I have a short sneak for break after the whole unbreathable week. Right after we had enough rest during the easter break (frankly we had fun almost everyday throughout the week till the very last few days we realised we were running out of time) we have been locking in room for most of the time, no breakfast no lunch and no dinner together, and for once I missed the presence of Siang and Zhi whom we normally have dinners together, it was like - I haven't seen there for a long time, though it was only a few days' time. Everyone's meal time was seriously crap, and there were times where we only had 2 meals per day. Rarely I had a proper meal, cereals milk yoghurt toasts and oat are my favourites, they need not much time to prepare. That's how I passed the whole torturous week.

Anyway this sad week has come to an end, partially. We rewarded ourselves with consecutive dining out. :)

The one that we've been longing for...



Extra thumbs up for this Pumpkin Patch pizza, it tastes really good! Things never go perfectly, upon finishing the dish, Cien found there's one sorta flattened baby cockroach underneath the pizza on the plate. The manager, of course, apologised for the presence of the dead creatures and replaced with anything we like without charges.


But when we were about to pay, the manager actually billed us for two dishes only instead of three or four, impossibly five. I will definitely drop by again, neither they charged us generously less nor the case of cockroach is the reason, they are friendly and service service is good! Uhhmm.. customer loyalty :) although this is only my first visit.

Last week I was indulging in lots of fun and laughters in Sydney, sijglm isdjfliajhenlhalskf sghlkadfkxae the tortures are over, I'm now a temporary free bird again but I've gotta remind myself this shouldn't last for long, only days I would say. Better than no? :)

I'm happy.
I'm satisfied.

Dream beyond..

Darn. Why this came into my mind! I've my bad habit back again once it's time where I need to bury myself in notes and digest those unfamiliar stuffs. I've been browsing through food blogs for hours again!

"I always dream of having a private party with bunch of nicely dressed buddies with lots of yummilicious looking finger foods and various creative designed desserts served in a glam environment or home decorated with light colors ribbons and balloons and most importantly I shall be one of those preparing the mouth watering creatures. 
The atmosphere would be so awesome."

Because this is a wrong timing. That's why I've been thinking on stuffs beyond the boundaries, of what I should do now.

It's just a dream.

halfway revising

It's actually quite funny to find that there are actually some notes left by your friends on your paper maybe weeks ago for the corrections need to be made.
And it's sorta like a conversation.


And I only realised it the day before the test :)

I'm poisoned

This shit thing happened this morning when Hua was cooking rice by using the microwavable rice cooker, because - 18 mins for 1 cup of rice, which is supposed to be 10 mins only. Hehehhe =p The burnt smell was so strong in the house and we hardly could breathe.

We laughed instead. Now we know, things could get burnt by microwave! :D

But soon I found it smells like the chicken pot rice with the slightly burnt rice at the bottom. @@ Crazy or not.

Fyi, the black hole thing is the burnt rice :) 

My Easter break has been so wonderful, functions and outings almost everyday. Firstly the updated beach outing, followed by the 3 days 2 nights trip in Sydney and the Easter Show, and the scenic view early in the morning at Port Stephens right after the day I came back from Sydney. Continuous fun, fun and fun! I'm exhausted but who cares, it's the fun that matters! For the first time, I dozed off at 10.30pm last night.

And.. we will be having steamboat at home later at night.

I'm busy again, or I should say continue busying! Lots to update after next week, with uncountable photos I hope :) stay tuned.

I LOVE THIS EASTER BREAK, except the upcoming days. Poisoned with joy and the burnt.

XOXO :)

Easter Break!

SO FAST and 6 weeks has passed! Here comes my Easter break, which everyone has been longing for since the start of the semester. And I guess after the break I will be looking forward to the one-month-winter-break! I skip the tests, skip the piling up assignments and skip the finals because they are so dull! Their only purpose is to depress us students.

I love our outfit :) although no bikini or sun dress, but we are colourful!

Random shot of the kids playing with water-splashing =)

The wave. High wave.

The group photo of the whole bunch of Asians at the beach =) which I only know few lil kittens of them. =p When Adrian said HEY COME FOR PHOTO! I just hopped in without second thought hehehhe

They went at 12pm but we went at 2pm - when the sun was hiding. Oh well well because we woke up late!  I love to go to beach with the sun hiding himself =) Else you would see me wearing long sleeves and cap while everyone is in as-least-as-they-can. 

A mediterranean cuisine dinner at Beaumont St before heading home. I love the pasta! It might look oily but I think it's olive oil which made me don't feel guilty at all for finishing the whole dish! Teehee.
Easter show in Sydney, I won't miss it! :)
Happy Easter!

Something. Some thoughts.

Time flies - this 2-word phrase has become more than common for me since the transition stage of my life, everything seems to pass in a glimpse and not to say whether I did appreciate the past or not. There were times when I came across to think of what I had been going through and what I had and have, it's sad to to say my mind went blank all the while. Is it too much or too little that couldn't even flash through my mind? There are heaps of stuffs I would never face or experience if I am forever a pampered one and  I feel great for being through what I've been through.

It's fun, or rather mesmerizing, to see how people around us deal with the word starts with M. Not that I'm involved in the M conflict, but the recent incident widened our insights I would say. Somehow it seems ridiculous and the worst part is this challenges friendship. I'm lucky I'm out of it, but sad to say this involves my close mates. But duhhh... this is unbelievable. I think I should not elaborate more on this.

I'm wondering would that be offensive for me to say something which might indirectly point to someone else, whom he/she might read it one day. But come to think of it, it's my right. If I've to privatise my blog just to have my freedom of speech, I don't wanna be like that. Why should I bother with what people think while I'm always the one tolerating and doing the best to serve people. I think I have to make some improvement here, not to care too much.

I was learning and I'm still learning.

And it seems that serving people with the best doesn't give you good return. I learnt this.

I'm told to stay out of something a moment ago because I don't have to get myself involved with that something that doesn't need too much of my concern. And yes I think I've been worrying too much for the sake of others, so I think it's the best if I'm out of it. So I'm quit then. I would say this is part of the learning process.

I'm not afraid to tell I'm lack of confidence and sometimes I don't even trust myself for my ability. I hardly could think of a field or an aspect that I'm confident in. This probably should be ashamed of but instead of being so I think constructive efforts should top on it. Hmm I shall think of it.

Be more confident, a reminder.
