Happy Anzac Day

The pressure is finally over. Mid-semesters finished. RElieved. Few days worth of hard work paid off. Think i'll do alright.

Today's a public Holiday. Anzac day. Australia remembering soldiers who died from the war in Gallipeoli (shucks, might be wrong spelling). Dear Jasmine whom wanted to go for the Anzac memorial service for years couldnt wake up at 5 am to go. heee heee heee... Couldnt stop teasing her about it.

Made pancakes for breakfast. Yummy pancakes with honey and jam and peanut butter!
Conclusion: Yummilicious and satisfying!

Assignment day. Two assignments due end of next week. Weekend gone.

Friday: Working at night then going for Rice (this huge clubbing event!)
Saturday: Morning (hangover from friday night), afternoon (iss meeting at 2 plus grocery shopping plus photoshoot for lighthouse... sighz... stupid chris hee hee)
Sunday: Morning (church), afternoon (work)

Oh yeah, and did i mention i plan to go adelaide, tasmania and melbourne during the winter break? ITs in mid july. for all my spore peeps, if you could come, join me for my aussie trip! It'll be loads of fun!

Thinking of Travelling to London and Hk as well. Jing promised accomodation in London. Lucia and my cousin promised to take me around plus i could prob stay with my cousin.

Haiz... so many travel plans... got the time for it but no money...

I need a sugar daddy... any takers?

... wouldnt go away... neither will ....

The mounted pressure to do well for tomorrow's exam is getting too much for me...
The stress wouldnt go away... neither would my headaches that i've been getting for the past few days...

If I dont do well, this wouldnt justify the other things that I do. Be it joining ISS or working... Trying to cut down on every other thing and focusing on my exam... i hope you understand that studying is my no one priority... sorry if i spent less time cooking...

On the other hand, fear wouldnt go away... neither would my insecurity...
waiting... when the feeling came so strongly for the past few days... the feeling of getting into one... deep inside knowing that it wont happen.... just waiting... when i dont know how long i can stand it anymore... waiting... when the desire to go back to spore is so strong... when i can just pick up a phone call and i know my good friends be willing to spare me a few hours for dinner... waiting... when i know that my good friends will be there to hug me...

Thanks wan'er and mag... I feel so much better just because u cared to ask how i was and offered a hug...

1 min per line...

I only covered half of what I was supposed to cover in my study plan for the easter break. I tried, but somehow nothing seems to go in.

Been having headaches for the past few days. The more I think about it, the more painful it gets. I feel stressed thinking about my CFP mid sem on saturday.

The desire to do well in studies is mounting. So much so that I cant breathe. I wanna slack. I feel so good when I do other things besides studying, ie watch hk shows, chat on msn, check e-mail, grocery shopping etc.

Even my FATP tute is halfway done.

I need a day's off. To unwind the whole day.

I know time's not on my side but can I have a day off pleassseee?

One week gone

I didnt go ice-skating.

But watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles made up for it. The long-awaited movie.
I lurrve Michalangelo. He never fails to crack me up! My fav ninja of all times!

Out of the list of 6 items, i did 3.

2) Go ice-skating (x)
5) Ktv (x)
6) Go eat Ciao Italia (x)

I have been wanting to go Ciao Italia for the longest time. Its supposed to have the best wood-fired pizza in the world... and Jeremy, a friend told me that I have to try the Tiramisu...

I did do some shopping at Morley. Bought a long sleeve white shirt for work (winter's coming and I havent got my spotless uniform yet) and Printer cartridge. I could shop forever... Almost every shop I went into seem to have clothes that I wanna buy. Luckily I was stopped by Limin.

And yeah, work's tomorrow.

Not much studying done this week. I wonder what I was doing. Other stuffs seem to take priority. Not good. Gotta get my butt back into studying mode.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to all!

I am soo happy because i have a week's worth of holiday. Well, not exactly a holiday. More like a studying catch up week. Mid-sems are next week! =( But anyways, I plan to do a few things while I can during the week:

1) watch Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
2) Go ice-skating
3) Go shopping
4) working at subi & hopefully somewhere else
5) Ktv
6) Go Ciao Italia to eat


The last week has been my many "firsts"


My first time sitting in a Volkswagon Beetle! ITs a 1970 beetle somemore! Its soo cool! The boot is actually at the front of the car. And the windows are just soooo cute! I forgot to take pics of the beetle. Hopefully I'll get a chance to take a photo of the car and post it up!

My first time going go-karting. Went for an outdoor go karting. I love the speed which the go kart moves. Exciting, heart pumping, and near adreleline when you feel you will hit the kerb.

Good friday is the first time I am off my 'p' plates after 2 years of getting my license! Now what's left is the conversion of my license to my spore one. Hee hee..

Yesterday was my first time watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon! I know this sounds so stupid, but yeah, i havent caught it yet. And I finally did when I watched the DVD at Kaori and Rob's place.



Yeah, that about sums up what i was goin to update. Catch ya guys sooon!!


On a side note, I feel that all my spore friends have disappeared from msn.. Hmm... How are all of ya? Give me a shout out to let me know you are still alive!!!!

preventive measures

Have you ever been in a situation where you knew you had to prevent something bad from happening to your friend but you dont know how to?

I have.

As a friend, if i see something bad happening to you; and i know that it will get worse, i would wanna take the step out and prevent it from getting worse. I know as a friend, i'll be there to give my time to listen to you, to hug you and accompany you when things hit rock bottom; when the person decides the worse has just happened and relies on you for support. I'll be that friend to my good friend, but I find it sooo hard to take that preventive measure. No matter how hard I try preventing things from getting worse, I cant seem to make that happen.

Esp with regards to relationship problems. I'm not the best person to talk to or even give a talk about preventive measures as I've no experience in the relationship field. All I can give is my friends' past experiences, which I take on board. But often what I always get is "you dont know how it feels like, nic." Sure I dont, but all I can offer you is this. I accrue it all to my inability to talk to my friends from preventing it from happening. I could be more tactful or i could be more persuasive (which I am usually not). I am usually the one that would give my time to comfort my friends when the relationship could not be salvaged. But in my heart, i thought, i could have done something more as a friend to not let you get hurt even further. Because deep down in my heart, i know that you are gonna suffer more. So how can sit down and helplessly let you sink further?


So peeps, tell me, advise me, what should I do prevent all these bad things happening further to my friends?

Dont mind me.... I'm just frustrated at something I cant do, and which I know could have been done. This has happened more than once....
