Updates!

Hellooooooooooo all, guess you have been staring at the same post far too long to continue visiting XD

Weeks leading up to the break were hectic but let's skip those parts. Highlights of the past week or so:


Tuesday - Buka Puasa with Azy

Took a train to North Melbourne where Azy lives and was introduced to her housemates =) Buka-ed puasa at 6 pm and ate Finaz's signature dish - Ayam Malas (Lazy Chicken) XD. Sedap!

Then had some girly session with Azy before leaving her place at 8 pm! Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, hope you're enjoying yourself back home now! And thanks for your gift =) Can't wait to see you again!

That night led into an unforseen travel "adventure" on trains and buses due to railway tracks repair. Travelling time = 2 hours hohoho. Witnessed verbal vulgarities on the way home, resulting in grimaces and big-eyed listeners on the bus. lol. Thanks to adventure LIVE update on facebook mobile, my trip felt shorter!


Friday - Work, KFC and Peeping

After work, met Boon and we ate KFC!! I've been craving it I smell it on the train! Cravings not satisfied though, ain't as finger-licking goood as imagined.


Boon




Boon and I went to Melbourne Central to buy her sim card but ended up buying my stuff instead paiseh. She then brought me back to Melb Uni gym to do some "peeping" haha. =X



Hope you're enjoying yourself in Adelaide with family now!



Friday Night - Download Craze

As we had some leftover internet qouta due that night before 12 am, bro asked to download as much as possible. So spend the entire night thinking of songs to download, raced against time! Thanks to those who recommended me songs! 75 new songs wheee ~ =)

Did a fair bit of Google Earth-ing too :D Thanks to YOU!

Saturday - Sleepover

After work rushed to the bus stop only to realize that I left my handphone at home lol. Which explained my (and Chen Hao's) tardiness for Andrea's Sleepover! Sorry!

Joined Jia Yen, Pei Wen, MC and Audrey at Andrea's mini sleepover :D Her new house, located in Tarneit (along Werribee line) is gorgeous. Luxurious yet cozy home. The night was spent away watching Bewitched and The Terminal, (on her oh-my-god 50 inch plasma TV !!!) and some of them played MahJong and Chor Dai Dee :D


Only pic in my camera. Sweetnya. XD

Had a mini girl talk later wheeeee XD No idea what time we slept.


Sunday - Volunteering at High Vibes Music Festival, High Street Northcote

The next thing I knew, it was 7.30 am. Thanks to Andrea for fetching me to the train station to catch the 8.16 am and I left to the city to meet up with my cousin.

LEFT my handphone at Andrea's house, I seriously can't believe myself. Reached Flinders and used the public phone to call my phone and bothered Jia Yen to use my phone to sms my bro, Xia and my cousin to tell them what's happened, and to meet as scheduled. Thanks Jia Yen >.<

Met up with Peggy and we took the tram and bus to Northcote!

As her shift was from 11-2pm and mine from 2-5 pm, I roamed around myself in the morning. The weather was awesome!


Northcote Municipal Office (also Kidszone for the day)



Mini brass band :D



Working on a design with used lighters :D (morning)


Saxophonist!! :D



Such convenient prams!




Peggy

Witches?


I even shopped for abit, how can one resist beautiful blouses and jackets going for AUD 5 each? haha then went back to take over Peggy's shift at 2 pm.

All afternoon we collected donations, calling out "Gold Coin Donation for OXFAM" and I also gave out the programs for the day. Xia joined shortly and together we worked till 5.30 pm. Sheer joy :D Most people were very generous =)

After others took over our shifts, Xia and I walked around, by that time, the crowd has built up in tenfold. The ambiance was all merry and gay, with street jazz bands, staged rock bands etc. Some even danced to the music :D


Some horn-like instrument


Lighter guy!!! (evening)



Rock band! :D

Jazz like band


Drinking on the roof? hehe



All huddled for a good beer in the evening



Xia with hers :D haha (Tasted like tea!)


Me, Ally (Coordinator) and Xia

Went back by train to City with Xia. Then went over to Jia Yen's to collect my hp >.<

Reunited with Peggy for dinner at Hungry Jacks! Cravings was once and for all - satisfied. The burgers tasted heavenly. So yummy I feel hungry now XD


Monday - Karaoke Session
Met up with Jia Yen, Andrea, Pei Wen, Mao mao, MC and Jian Hao to sing sing sing at Party World. Party World looked like a 5-star lounge and we had a whale of a time! Listening to beautiful voices, watching MVs adorned by lengzais like LeeHom, enjoying sensational lyrics, topped with good drinks + food, what's not to love? hehe

We then had dinner at Coconut House :D Yummy chicken rice!

When going home, I took the wrong train to Epping. OMG. Was engrossed in bro's friend's Archie comics (Jughead Double Digest!!!!!) when I looked out of the train and thought, hmmm Rushall? Nope, definitely not my line. >.<

Got down at Merri when it poured heavily! Waited for train back to city for 20 minutes, then stopped at Clifton Hill. Waited another 5 minutes for my ACTUAL TRAIN. haha reached home nonetheless, tq to bro who picked me up :D

Then Skyped with mum, sis and a little of dad for 2 hours. Engaging!!!! :D

LOL..you said this place was dead, eh yours also! =p

Yamehhhh.. I was thinking, KFC here can't beat the one at home..the chicken is smaller and less tasty, unlike the chicken skin back home, omg *drools* and the mash potato here is so tasteless, unlike the ones back home. Maybe because they use more MSG back home haha

hahah but yea then again, maybe we have grown out of it since it's been a long time since I last ate KFC.
