Chocolate Temptations

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIXIA!!!!



(gosh, you have too many favourite colours!)


A few weeks ago Harvey, Ai Vyn, Seok and I met up for mid-evening dessert at Max Brenners Melbourne Central.



I was the only non-prefect there! It was good for us to meet up after so long, and we talked about school days (this was the part that Seok stared blurly into space), and about the absolutely fascinating food that Max Brenners had to serve.





This is what I shared with Seok...Chocolate Waffles, highly recommended by both MB regulars :


And Harvey's concoction in a milk bottle : I want the bottle!


After that, I cooked dinner for me and Seok : Cous Cous, beef curry, and Itallian meatballs.


SHE DIDN'T DIE!! AHAHHAHAHA...more pictures on the meal later, when I get it from bandwidth-stingy Seok!

Deadlines!

Aaaahhh...My phone bill for the month is $330...almost RM1000!

Damn.

________________________________________________________________

My aunt N was leaving for Japan, and so she was giving away most of her stuff. I was supposed to get her PS2 or X-Box, but her husband had also promised it to my other cousin! Eeesh. So nvm...I already got tonnes of stuff from her anyway - I'm really grateful to all the things she's done, and I think I'll miss her and my little cousin being in the same vicinity.

Aunt S threw her a farewell party, and I had to give a speech! Here are some pics!

Apparently during the party N's husband offered his iBook free of charge to anyone who wanted it, and no one said anything - NOT EVEN MY MOM. AAAHHH...I would have loved an iBook! Finally another cousin of mine said she would take it. Yeesh. But again, I'm satisfied with what I got!







A few weeks ago, Sara and I met up to study Econs during lunch time. I wanted to eat somewhere along Collins Street and finally we decided to eat at Society - also because Sara really didn't want me to make her walk anymore.






The environment was great, but the portions were so small! My bill came to $25 - for a few mouthfuls! Officially my most expensive meal in Melbourne yet.

The last pics of this post are of another cousin's birthday - the sister of the one who got the iBook. It was held at their house at Mount Waverley. The 16 year old birthday girl made the cake!







Here's to clearing up posts :D

Sydney Family



So, I stayed at my uncle's place in Glenwood when I went to Sydney.









I stayed in my cousin's room (she's married and so shifted out) - and that's officialy my room if I ever go to Sydney. THE STARS THAT THEY PUT UP ON THE CEILING 7 YEARS AGO ARE STILL THERE AND GLOWING IN THE DARK!






When I brought back some to KL those many years ago, they all stopped glowing or fell off after a month or so.

My family's got a new baby! A Spitz by the name of Mimika. She's so cute, but SHE'S SO SPOILT! I made it a point to train her as much as I good while I was there...she improved so much, but once I left I knew she would just go back to normal la. Haih.








Our house is near Hillsongs!



When I got back my long lost cousin visited. I've never met her before, but they're really so nice! My uncle came down to Melbourne for a night to see my apartment, and so she offered to take him to the airport. She has a daughter as well, who's ambition is to do a Seok! Medicine at Melbourne Uni.




I was so glad I got the chance to fly up to Sydney for Easter - it was well deserved and just felt so good. So, I'm happy :)
