Life is good here! (:

Internet here is terrible. I guess this excuse is good enough to explain the lack of entries from yours truly.

Ipswich is a boring place. In fact, I think the whole of Australia is a boring place. Shops close real early (okay, I know it sounds familiar, but I just can't accept this yet). If you miss the bus, be prepared to wait for an hour at the bus stop and get sunburn. When you step out of the house to empty your bin, be ready to attack frogs or moths intruders. When you are walking to school, be careful not to step on dead snakes and HUGE (I MEAN HUGE HUGE) lizards. When you are complaining about living in HDB flats, think twice, because you can shit and pee in peace without worrying that there might be snakes and toads in your toilet bowl.

Talk about glamour.

But well, I'm still glad I came. Met the funniest people who are always ready to do the most unexpected things, planning spontaneous trips and gatherings, coming up with weirdest pranks, doing silly parties and celebrations.

They are the people you will be dying to hang out with.

I went jogging with Perlin, Jing Ting, Qiao fei, James, Lawrence, Tian Chuang and Yu Jin on Friday. After jogging, we gathered at Lobley Park for games. HAHA. Simon says, lao ying zhua xiao ji, crocodile crocodile may we cross the river, 123 mu tou ren.........

and Lawrence the Hong Konger didn't know how to play these games. HAHA. So we got to teach him every game. zzz. and I have no idea why halfway through the game, we started planning summer picnics and weekend steamboat. For summer pinic, all the girls must wear picnic dresses? HAHA. Stay tuned for updates on these events. I'm pretty sure they will make it come true.

So after staying in the sun for an hour, we went back to Unilink. Just when we thought we can bathe and rest, Yu Jin and James suggested swimming in Unilink's Pool. And everyone jumped into the pool in their jogging attire.

They are crazy people.

Lawrence and meeee (:

Jingting and Law Lai

Perlin and Law Lai

the craziest people.

My Sister's Keeper movie is out! I went to the movies yesterday with Jing Ting, Gabriel, Poh Suan, Perlin, Qiao Fei and Wing Him to catch this show. I think we were crying throughout the entire movie (except for heartless Gabriel). But beware, those who have not read the book, the movie might be slightly confusing for you because they kept having lookback scenes. Had lunch at Subway after the movie. Poh Suan was complaining about the depleting toilet rolls during lunch. HAHA. she said we are using 1 toilet roll per day on average! Then everyone started to discuss about how many 'squares' of toilet paper we should use, which greatly turned Qiao Fei, Gabriel and Wing Him's appetite off. HAHA. Went grocery shopping (again), bought chicken breast at $8.99/kg which was achievement of the day (I doubt my readers are interested in grocery sales so I shall not elaborate), and Gabriel drove us back.

Today = thumbs down. We spent like, 3.5 hours to get to Sunny Bank? When we finally got there, we ate at this 'Little Singapore Restaurant' which serves really lousy food. I wanted to order Assam Squid with Rice, but succumbed to peer pressure and ordered Curry Chicken instead. Regretted like mad please. The curry was so salty and oily. zzz. For beverage, I ordered Crushed Ice with Red Bean and Milk. Huge mega disappointment also. I was expecting sth like the one I had with Patrick and Doreen in a hong kong cafe. But in the end, they blended ice with red bean and milk. I can't even chew any red bean because it was all blended into powder. It tasted like, watery dou sha bao. zzz. sad lah.

We took 2.5 hours to get back to Ipswich. So we spent 90% of the time travelling, 5% of the time eating nonsense, and 5% of the time trying to make sense out of the whole place. ahhhh. There goes my Saturday.

The only funny thing that happened today was photo taking session with the girls.

BUT,because today = thumbs down, the internet refused to let me load the photos! zzz. FINE.

okay, shall upload the photos asap once the internet is up. Need to read up on my Business Law already. BYEEEE.
