heart is sinking

Annnddd its the last day of orientation. Technically. Well technically there's the Monash Dash at Clayton tomorrow, but for one I'm not even going to be in Clayton, and for another I'm too lazy to run. Not that I'm not athletic (actually, I think I'm turning to be a real lazy bum, but shhh. :P), but I would rather hike/climb/swim/bike rather then run around like a headless chicken. I like treasure hunts, but only when I'm organizing it. I rather like watching people running around frantically. *sadist*

But anyway! Clayton campus is huge, I can't iterate that enough. Its massive! I swear I almost got lost, except the map is pretty easy to read. But after three days there, I only know my way around Building 63, and the Campus Centre. Anywhere else and you'll see question marks appearing above my head. If I were to go there and had back to back classes, I'll lose weight in a month, I swear to you. I don't know how do people get from class to class here without either running madly or getting a bike!

On another note, I think I've lost my picture taking mojo. I can't be bothered pulling out my camera anymore, and most of the time when I do end up taking pictures, its just with my Ipod and those photos usually end up on instagram. Speaking of which, follow me! Its at kittykits! :P

Last day of orientation and i took the public transport back myself, which surprisingly isn't as complicating, even if it is tedious and long. Bus from Clayton to Huntingdale, Pakenham line to Parliament and change to Sydenham line at Flagstaff all the way to Watergardens, all in all took me an hour to take. Then again though, I'd rather do that journey then study at Gippsland, which is a twenty dollar fare to the city via V-line. *sour face* but meh, I don't have a choice anymore. It rained on my journey back though, and I did like just sitting by the window with my earplugs plugged in contemplating the problems of my world. :P

Crossing fingers for an awesome O-week next week and a fun semester for the next six months!! ^_^

whoah. O-O

Yeahhh. Figured I should just keep a blog during my six month stay in Melbourne, partly because I doubt I can remember everything and just want to keep stuff as memories, and partly because.. well Gippsland is a hella boring place. There's really not much to do here! Literally. I'm back in Syndenham now at Uncle Eddy's place, thankfully. But that's only because there's the Abroad orientation going on in Clayton this week. Next week is when I move back to the land of wild bunnies roaming around my not-so-big-but-complicated campus. Meh. ):

Life through instagram! That seems to be how things are these days, and while my Ipod is only workable with wi-fi, i'm semi-addicted to that app. I update like crazy when I get wi-fi. :P But either way, Uncle Eddy's food is amazing. Its like I never left Malaysia! Curry, char koay teow, nasi lemak, you name it he makes it. And in Gippsland I have to make a ten minute trudge to Hazelwood in the next village to get my groceries. Meh. I'll survive on bread and butter.

Totally does not help that v-line tickets are so expensive too! Fortnightly trips to the city it is, I can't afford to make one every week. Psh. But oh well, I'll be the asian kid who sits in her room and stares at her computer all day, school-shooter tendencies and all. xD Fingers still crossed that I'll make awesome friends and have an awesome six months here, but I'm all resigned to being friendless and sticking to my room.

That said though, Melbourne city is an amazing place. I love the culture and lifestyle here, and had my campus been closer to the city, I have no doubt that I would have had an amazing time here, friendless or not. I'm quite fine with adventuring by myself, and I can walk for miles alone had my campus not been so far.

But ah well, life sucks that way. Loneliness, here I come! xD

OKAY PICTURE DUMP. Though forewarning, I might not be updating my blog as often as before nowadays, cause uni is just impossibly busy, plus I find it easier to just dump everything on facebook and caption everything there, hence... yeah, just go there. xD

CUTES THING EVER OMG MEMORY LANE'S NEW RANGE OF PLUSHIES. SO CUTE. Their microbacteria actually, but they're so floofy and cute and lskdjksj.

AND CUTE BOTTLE. Bought it from daiso, it contains milk. So darn cute. klsjdlksd

Went out to meet Farah and Sophia the other day! At Full House at pyramid, where the mashed potato is omgsogoodlksdksjad.

And that meeting ended up leading to another one of a gathering of all of us at Snowflakes on Friday! I haven't seen this people in 2 years, and though we're missing some people, its so fun to see everyone there!♥

Also, went home during first of May for grandmother's birthday! The cousins there got a new puppy omg its a cute little fuzzball!

Its always like a family conference whenever all of us congregrate back home. The sofas are never enough so some people eventually end up sitting on the floor. Somehow, I prefer sitting on the floor though. xD

This is what happens when there's too many girls in a family. Lack of mirrors when an event is going on. xD

BIRTHDAY CAKEEE♥

AND MIKU OMG SO GOOD♥ I only ever eat the ones at Penang, because the ones sold here is disgusting. D:

The cousin bought me this omo so cute!

The day before I went home, cousin brigade headed out for lunch together in the plus ones car! If you guys are wondering, plus one is one of my cousins' boyfriend, who has yet to gain full approval from all of us. Pending. xD

We went to Mae Salong! Its a place that apparently sells really good green curry in Penang.

I'm not food entrepreneur, but the surroundings were gorgeous!

I couldn't resist taking 90829038123 pictures. I'm sparing you with only two. xD

The really good green curry, which I guess is actually pretty good since its really creamy and stuff. But the rest of the stuff we had was major spicy. And most of us can't really take overly spicy food.

And that is the end result, everyone sweating like mad as they eat. xD

Also, we finished three jugs of water. Ice cold water. xD

I hate saying goodbye. ):

But once home, the sisters brought me to roller blading!

2 out of 4 of them anyway, since the other two was busy. D: but roller blading is always fun with more people!

We found the canopy walk to pyramid from college! Omg it took a while too!

Its a five minute walk, but the view is actually quite pretty as you walk. You can see Lagoon as you walk too! You come soooo close to the roller coaster rides.

Lunch date with the Meis! Creme bruleee~

Of course, we always have our Kindori. Is that even a question? xD

We all wear slippers to school! Because we're all too lazy to wear proper shoes. xD

Also, I think I beat almost every single one of her high scores on her Itouch games. :P

CCF after rehearsals! Ahhh, dance concert just ended. I hate it when an event ends, it feels so empty. D:

Well hello there, remember the horrendous finger from last week? It sorta got popped and bound so it could heal. That was how it looked last week though, since its all fine now. so lets jump to my barrage of food pictures and what I've been up to, shall we?

Went to Ikea with the sisters last week! omnomnom, they call this the Princess cake, and its awesome♥ Sweet and creamy.

I can't decide between the Princess cake or Daim cake though, since both are equally good♥

Of course, a meal in Ikea is never complete without Meatballs! Its meaty goodness with the jam they serve.

I think I found a new favourite though. Their vegetarian pasta is really good! The pasta itself, is chewy and soft and ... just all round omnomness♥

This was dumplings from the Saturday me and Mei was studying and decided to kidnap Lei and go for Snowflakes. yes, I can never resist dumplings. xP

Dimsum breakfast! This is what I always have when I go for dimsum. salad prawns, HK chee cheong fun...

... and har gao! I usually get the spare ribs and some other stuff too, but I had a craving for glass skin stuff that day. xD

Made mashed potato to bring to uni the other day, last week I think. Because the sisters have been bugging me about it. xD Its like I'm their unpaid cook!

Crisis in the uni! We couldn't get the locker door to open. D;

Oh, and Mel brought her new polaroid camera that day! its so pretty, if the film wasn't so expensive I'd definitely get it. D:

We spammed on it. Sort of, not really since the film is expensive. But we made the most of it!

Even changed it to all of our wallpapers! xD

We surprised her on that day for her birthday too. :P

The brother has a new BB, and i love this wallpaper!

This silly thing came and pick me up from uni the other day! Stupid fuzzy monster stole my passenger seat. D: *cuddles him*

Bought a set of keychains for the sisters!

And also the stepdaddy's birthday last week! Spammed on Mahathir's memoirs for him. Which btw, I find entirely uninteresting but he was enamoured with. *shrugs* Grown ups. Aish.

Lamb date with Mei! Our lunch consisted of shepherds pie, and lamb shank!

Yes, we both be humongous lamb eaters. It was so good♥

Of course, its never complete without cake! Her chocolate indulgence and my strawberry mashmallow cheescake, epic win♥

Wall of Hated Food in Monash. Its the students protest against the cafetaria food, which is horrendous and expensive. Its why the sisters and I have been bringing food to school instead of buying these days. Dx

Was baking again the other day! Why, you ask? Because its for the sleepover we had of course!

Mei and I gave out the stuff we had for the sisters. xD Cute towels omg♥

Chicken! Kokkokai~

Why yes, we did have our dinner at 10:30 pm that night, any problem? xD

Again, polaroids are ♥

Its been raining a lot these days, and its such a hassle if I was in uni and need to go home. but if I happen to be at home while it rains, I can't be happier. Its such a comfy weather! Except, I really don't like the lightning and thunder. Dx
