space exploration

Phewww....

Been quite busy with MASA past few weeks, but due to exams, ive not been attending any events and lucky thing dragon boating was 2wks before my exam if not i would have missed out! am so going back again next year! and it's such a coincidence that International Markets Day got cancelled so we got a free week! boy, wasnt it good to have the free week? My exam was the following week and I totally need a break from events. Just as well, Makan Makan Night is the friday I finish my exam as well, an awesome way to start my holiday...so im glad everything fell into place, yet again :D

THANK YOU GOD!

its only with you, things like this can happen :)


So ive been using the free week to study, abothen....plus, the wknd was spent at home with my books...how wonderful isnt it? Little did I know, I got to experience and explore around Kingsford that weekend! hahaha, i knowww...exam is on monday and Im going out to explore...how nice isnt it? seeee what I meant by Sydney being a distraction?? well well, I told myself I could only go if i studied enuf and feel its okay...plus it was only dinner...since I had the whole morning and arvo to study, so why not...I couldnt take it being cooped up at home studying the same thing over and over!! was almost driving me up the wall =X

It was a good thing Varsha's family friend, mum's family friend infact came to Aussie for his sons grad on friday and so was free to take us out for dinner on Sat....I was totally looking forward to eating at Hurricanes, one of their famous places for steaks and beef ribs...unfortunately, the placed was fully booked...and Sat being a wknd, not a surprise to me honestly...last time my friends went there, they had to wait like a crazy 2 and a half hours just to get in =X So since tat was full, he took us to the entertainment quarter, where fox studios is which is in Kingsford...not technically but its nearby la :) haha fox studios near my place! damn cool yo ;)

at least we went somewhere nearby so i wasnt complaining, besides, i expected to be having a big feast that night, so wherever was fine by me XD i finally got to meet the family, whom Varsha was telling me about as they were the ones who helped her move around Sydney and stuff so yea, we went to this place which had mango beer! hahaha omg, seriously...this is the first time in my entire life, yet again, drinking beer :P BEER! OMG, i never ever tot ill drink it, but this was heavenly! Mango is mixed inside of course, but it still has the taste of beer...but hey, first time so abit jakunfied XP i din have any other alcoholic drinks that night, so i was purely sane! only thing is, the food portioning is just out of this world! Varsh & me had like 3 dishes to share, and obviously we couldnt finish! felt quite bad though, hate wasting food :(


thats our starter, caesar salad

that's my dinner, mixture of pork belly, sausages, mash potatoes and salad

that's varsha's giant pork belly dish! tat was seriously GIANT! :O

that's the mango beer we shared! haha ;)

one of the desserts

sticky date pudding, pudding never tasted this nice LOL

what a feast I had that night, omg! but it was fun meeting the family...a husband and wife with 5 sons and 1 daughter who is in form5 now and only coming to Aussie next year after SPM, wow! but all the boys are wayy older than me! felt weird at first, but this made me think bout how I used to hangout with Leon, Kenny & the gang who r around these boys ages as well, so there's no reason for me to feel different...yes, i admit they r way older, but hey, what matters is they r really nice boys and being older, is an advantage...having them around, 4 bodyguards around me hahaha XD and they told me to find them anytime wen i have nothing to do, since I know where they live now, i can just walk over...speaking bout that, the uncle invited us over for dinner the nex day to his place...his wife was gonna b cooking and so he wanted us to come over...

and thats how i found out where they live, and also got a chance to see those apartments...always passed by but have never been inside...what a huge balcony they have...its so beautiful and romantic to sit outside at night wen the sky is so dark and see the pretty stars in the sky, what blisss :D din mind just sitting out there and staring at the lighted city and the starry skyyy :) too bad my balcony is a sun room, so cant see anything outside LOL oh well, next time wen im bored and want to catch a movie, i know who to find hahaha ;) and that night, their whole family knew i had exam the next day, and so everyone wished me good luck...hahaha, such a fun bunch...i can imagine how CNY would be like for them, lots of $$$$ though :P

what else has been happening??? oh oh! i cant wait to watch 17again! yes, abit outdated here *sobs* exams r such a burden i tell u! practically everyone has watched it already...mayb i shud just dwld and watch at home by myself since i have the wonderful internet speed lol...wat else is nice? atm, nothing really nice showing though...cant wait for Harry Potter 6 in july!!!!!!!!! the trailer is just oh-so-awesome! hope the movie wont b much of a disappointment, have read the book twice! LOL and omg, hav u guys watched star trek yet??????? its the best movie man!!! the best thing is I got to watch it 2wks before the release date! haha beat that :P thanks to greater union, being a cinebuzz member! woohoooo....its free to be a member, and I simply entered the competition just for fun, little did I know, varsha & me got a email saying we have both won a double pass each to the screening! like wth??? hahaha omg, thats also my first time watching a pre-show...see how many things ive experienced in the 4 months ive been here? amazing i tell u :D
