Blah's

I cried.

Or at least I was in the middle of crying, about 3 weeks ago, when Wei Xiong called me and said he was in the neighbourhood and wanted to drop by. So 3 sobs was all I could let out. I felt cheated : 1 year of no emotion, and when release finally came, 3 sobs was all I was afforded?

But I was glad as well, cause it meant company. We went back to his place (cause apparently bigger is better) and we made the Max Brenner's hot choc that I showed before while watching the Olympics. I slept over, and woke up only at 5pm the next day, and though I had homework, we went to watch a movie with Ching, Khong and Wei Xiong's friend Alvin.

Side note :


THE MOVIE WAS HILARIOUS. I normally hate documentaries, but this one was so good!

Then we went back to my apartment and it was his turn to sleep over. And I realised how nice my couch was to sleep on. In fact, I've been sleeping on my couch nowadays...hahaha...it's so fun to have a change!

One day when I was bored, I tried to cry again. 3 sobs is not enough. But I'm empty. Nothing. No water works for me...another year perhaps?

Anyway, the timing was so great, it could only be God given. I've noticed that God doesn't allow me to feel depressed nowadays. If I start getting a bit mellow, something will come up which will keep me busy.

I'm so much better now.

Last week was emotional hell. I woke up and straight away felt it wash over me. I didn't want to leave my bed in the mornings, because getting out of bed, and my feet touching the carpeted floor, meant that I was going back into my life. That I had to live my life. And last week, that was not something I felt like doing.


I'm better now. :)

Keat's 18th

The things I really want in my life, are exactly what's missing.

____________________________________________________________________

Seok, you are not gonna fail. And Mun Yee, I just had to do this :P I'm too OCD :P

Also, I've updated my blog song FINALLY.

Keat's birthday was on the 11th of August, but they planned to celebrate it on the 9th since it was a uni day (for everyone other than me :P) on the 11th. Around this point of time I also wanted to try out a new hairstyle, and so I decided it would be a good excuse to do it for the dinner. Tse Han straightened my hair - it was more like he burned me, and my hair sizzled etc, but he did a good job nonetheless, and managed to make my SHORT SHORT hair look a bit straight.

Omg, I just realised it was exactly a month ago, but it feels like AGES ago "=.= Anyway...

Since it was an 18th, the dress code was formal. As my mom said, lucky I took my jacket with me! On the night of the dinner Yi Ping came along to Tse Han's make-shift salon to tell me what to wear :P Hahaha...thanks ping :P



We ate at VicHarbour at the Docklands.


It was opening present time! Anselm, Shin and Sara shared a Liverpool jersey...




What's in the wrapping?!

What's so funny?

Steadddyyy.....

Oh NO, you didn't!

Sara's ears get pink when she's excited, and so she decided to try and cool them down with the water glasses :P



Cake time!



They did this same pose for Sara's birthday! Heheh..



Blowwww....Brunetti's!


And kids will be kids :














We decided to go to Crown after dinner, and while there I really felt like dessert and so I decided to treat Greco's cause I felt guilty that I was making them spend on dessert just cause of me...AND ALSO SINCE MANPREET IS NOT COMING TO MELB ANYMORE SO I DON'T NEED TO BELANJA HER...hmph...TOO BAD PREET :p


We then headed back to College Square for some CS, while Sara slept!






After that Tse Han was kind enough to invite me to stay over at his place, so I crashed there. And that was that :)

Sigh. Class in 7 hours. Gotta sleep.

My Firsts

My first movie in Melbourne was courtesy of Vyn : we watched Mamma Mia!

Desmond, Yi Ping, Vyn, Kelvin and I headed down to Hoyts Melbourne Central, and boy was I excited. The movie itself was...a funny one, not a good one, but I FINALLY WATCHED A MOVIE! WOO HOO! Can't wait for the next one!


We went to Nando's after for dinner, where Kelvin noted that I eat a lot. Hah! See see everyone! It's proven!



Vyn

Desmond & Yi Ping

Another first of mine was the legendary Brunetti's. Wei Xiong, Yi Ping and I went there after dinner one day, and I was over the moon! I had such an overdose of coffee man!







Yi Ping's tea

2 shots of espresso + ice cream + whipped cream = heaven

my Afagato and killer Tiramisu

Wei Xiong's...chocolate thing

Brunetti's has become a regular occurence since then! Hahaha...here's to a whole lot more firsts to come! Oh by the way, I had my first kaya at an Urbanlife potluck at Noelle's house. Su Lin made it for me - I know there's a photo, but I don't have it :P





I'm becoming more Malaysian by the minute :(
