Sorry for the lack of updates!!! Been kinda busy since I got back to Brissy! Arrived on Friday night, met up with Tazis on Sat, Sun and Mon nights while going over to Gatton during the day to buy furniture, clean the house and whatnot. Man...it sure is expensive to get everything. =.="

Thanks to Joe, Hao and PC for the company these few days ya!? Had loads of fun...^^ Oh, and for helping me out with the enrolment stuff.

ANYWAYS. Notice to Tazis:
-------There will be a lack in connection on my mobile for this week as I am still on pre-paid and the coverage kinda sucks for over there in Gatton. I will be getting my home phone line connected tomorrow, which is Tuesday, and I will be calling one of the Tazis (Yang Hao probably) so that you guys have a number you can call if you need to contact me. (Call between anytime after 4pm...). If it's really urgent, I have left my mum's mobile number with Hao, then you guys can leave a sms there so that I will be able to get back ASAP. Or you can sms my mobile but I might not receive it. My internet connection will probably on be up on 27th Feb or later. ---------

Will be back in Brisbane city on Friday morning or noon, which is when I will be signing up a 3-Mobile plan and maybe headover to Chinatown and get some foodstock. Will be returning to Gatton like Saturday evening. Staying over Kit and Hao's place...I think.

About the house, it's quite good actually. The size is just right (maybe a little big, but any smaller and I will get no dining space. 0.o"), the bedrooms and bathrooms are decent and the kitchen is really roomy. Haven't tried walking to or from the bus stop, but I think it will be alright.
It will take me maybe like 20 minutes or so to walk to the town area or Gatton Plaza to do some shopping so I might get a bicycle. It's also a rather quiet area with LOADS of greenery so my mum reckons I won't fall sick that easily due to all the fresh air. XD. Saw loads of cows and horses there...And a golf course is like 5 mins away from my place and the sports center 10 mins (walking dist.).

CLASSES START on 25th!!! EEKS!! My timetable is kinda decent, except for Wednesday and Friday whereby classes start at 8am, and the bus only runs at 6.30am or 8.10am from my place so I will reach school at like 6.45am or 8.30am...So I am either gonna be late by 1/2 hour or early by 1 hour. Riiight...=.=" Starts at 9am for Monday and Tuesday and 1pm on Thursday. Ends rather early except for Wednesday (6pm).

I don't reckon the timetable is confirmed yet cause my contact hours don't match the amount I am supposed to have. So I guess I have some things to ask during Orientation...

Will be uploading photos ASAP!!! Bye for now!

Don't know why, but I just don't seem to want to talk to anyone one the phone for long nowadays. But whenever I feel this way, there is only less than a handful of people whose calls I will pick up.

One of them is that stupid ass kuku head! Even though the conversations are meaningless, they manage to pull my mind off things that are bothering me at that moment.

Yes Kuku Head, I doubt if you even know I am talking about you, or that you even read my blog. =P

Thanks for being my friend all this while, and even when I am down in the dumps, just thinking of the times with you will cheer me up a considerable amount, and everytime I get over something, somehow or another the process will involve your help. There always happen to be time on your hands when your friends need help, and that's one of the many good traits you have.

I ever thought that distance or time will take this friendship apart, but I guess I thought wrong, and I am glad I am wrong cause it would be a HUGE loss to lose a friend like yourself. Heh... I appreciate all that you have done since the day that I met you. Even though you might not know it, your craziness has always been the best medicine I can get my hands on, be it whether I am depressed or angry. You might not give the best advice, but your crazy ideas are the what matters more.

You kept me in check, never letting me get ahead of myself. I was never afraid to be me whenever you are around cause I know that you will understand and accept me as crazy as I am.
I am glad that we are simply good friends, no more, no less. Thanks for that you idiot...=P

BLAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

*Yes, I just wanted to "show off" that I have a friend like kuku head. =P*

Count Down - 23 Days to End-Of-Year Exams!!!!

Exams are in 3 weeks time my friends! Let's all JIA-YOU~ and work hard to achieve our dreams. Even if things don't turn out the way they should (which they almost never do), at least we know we have done our best and we know that we have no regrets. ^^

It's time to give my THANKS again!!

Thanks to Kin Fatt and Kit for their company this week and all those previous weeks when I was feeling down/frustrated or just plain upset. Those trips (to South Bank and Starbucks) with you guys helped me out quite alot. Thanks for being there my dear "grandsons"!! Hahas...Thanks for listening to me vent my frustrations and all my ranting and whatnot. Also for the awesome company you guys make, you guys almost never fail to make me laugh.

Thanks to Jess and Vanessa for listening to whatever crap I was ranting on all this while. ^^

Thanks to Ping Chiuan. He might not know, but some things he said gave me motivation to actually try my hand at Physics again. I was already giving up on it, and even though his motivation method is like reverse psychology, it works for me.

Thanks to YANG HAO!!! For just being the joker and making everyone happy.

Thanks to PAUL for lending me the Basketball these 2-3 weeks!!! ^^

Thanks to David and everyone else who was my pillow this week. Eh heh...

Thanks to anyone else I owe thanks to, be it whether you lent me stuff, heard me out, adviced me or anything. I feel that I owe you guys BIG TIME.

Introduction

Hi! Welcome to my blog.

This is the area where I rant and rave about everything and anything going on in my life.

If you are looking for recipes, the links to each single recipe will be located before the archives, just scroll down a little.

Usually, I talk about what's been going on in my life, my cooking, or my latest buys/holiday trips.

Time to time, I will introduce new websites that I find interesting, and online shopping haunts.

I make my own blogskins, and I do submit them onto blogskins.com. You can find them HERE

Thats about it!
