im back in australia! the feeling is somewhat mixed, im glad to be back, the weather is beyond fantastic, i spent 2 weeks in singapore feeling constantly sweaty and sticky, it really ruins ur mood sometimes! anywayy wasnt a bad holiday. i got to spend time with guoming, everyone was in jc but i managed to meet up with my favourite people :) even ting... at some point for like 5 seconds, who wont let me hug him anymore, aww all grown up i guess. its so nice to see all the boys in their school u, no longer in secondaey school but in jc, makes them seem a tad little more grown up! joel in his pink shirt! daryl too. ting still looks the best in the uniform and the cutest, then again. hasnt he always!! :)
school has been ultra tiring, eric says ive been trying to do it all on my own. i guess i have been
anyhows
ryans back
hh ry n i hung out today

its been a good what three weeks since my last entry, ive been really busy with school, i was a BIG fool to have taken four subjects honestly, but i couldnt help it cuz adding the subjects i wanted to take and the subjects that i was forced to take, TADA, i got myself a full schedule. i honestly hate fulldays, 9-5 on tuesdays straight four periods, this week i nearly fell asleep in my last two lectures and its not the lack of sleep cuz ive been trying hard to get sufficient sleep and ive been getting about 8 hours a day! so its 8 am everyday wake up for classes except on monday n friday when i start at 11, then ill be home around six just in time for dinner and by then i feel so tired out to do anything and this is only the second week of school. i promised my parents results and that ill enter into melbourne U, told myself four isnt bad, i mean its only a year right? then itll be better after that! hopefully. i realize now what aunty jessie means when she says we'll eat more, ive been eating so much recently, especially since the change of management, ive been eating even more cuz the food is getting really good. and after ALL the walking i do in a day, im so hungry, yesterday i had kfc TWICE!! cuz i had breaks during lectures and HH insisted on eating KFC! and i mean its KFC right? how can u walk in and smell it and NOT wanna eat! hopefully all the walking i do balances out the eating, LIKE CRAZY.i did a count. ill be back home in 20 odd days? and i honestly cant wait to see everyone, especially my family and my sisters. now i understand. long distance is hard, be it relationships or friendships, i barely have time for myself sometimes, let alone anyone else, and sometimes i feel so bad when im unable to be there like i was before for many friends, but i guess it really hasnt been all that bad, ive cut down on shopping. the only thing i got this time is jack johnsons new cd :) which is seriously fantasticka. if i can find the cash, evan and i are going to watch him in concert next weekened.cant wait.at least something to look forward to! okay. honestly, everything isnt that bad! okay. i had drama class today which i really dont like cuz i cant act for NUTS! sometimes im a little too conscious maybe? i have a dramma exam next week, gotta do a 2min mime, hopefully it all goes well! *crosses fingers.media and comm is really interesting too, we spent the past two lectures talking bout scandals and the secret life of the royal family, it sometimes barely feels like a subject, then.. i got my first examination essay assignment, analytical essay, which i dont know how to write. it counts for a ten percent of my average. thing that is quite cool bout melbourne is that not everything is based on the final exam, its spread out and other things like performance in class counts too. psy isnt bad either, my lecturer is psycho, but shes pretty good and psy is really fascinating, you know!! 90 percent of disorders start in the USA cuz there are SO many people! yepp! psy has essays too. i havnet been writing in sooo long its hard to start again!my accounting teacher is fantastic, hopefully if im consistent i can get a 100 percent for the exam, two studnets managed that last yr. i REALLY wanna be one of them this yr. i figured it would be good if i started to make goals for myself earlier! so yeahhenglish for academic purpouses is kinda boring, basically going to class each time to find out that everything i learnt in singapore is irrelevent here. nice, makes u feel really good honestly. histoy of ideas is DEAD boring, okay the tutorials arent bad but the lectures, i didnt get a thing.that sums up how classes have been and everything
i like it here cuz the way and style of teaching is very different from singapores, the emphasis is not totally on studying, its about character development and also about having fun at the same time, the weather still really irks me. it was COLD all of last week, there was a mad rush to go shopping to get winter clothing tho its only autumn! then today it went up to a blasting 35degrees. it amazes me how people dont fall sick in this horrible weather. i like the weather in singapore loads better! gawsh speaking of singaporei really cant wait to get my ass on that plane and back home, i know im like a freakin spoilt brat for going home sooo often in this year, some people tell me that im not givving myself a chance to settle in properly if i keep going home, but i think inm more or less settled in. i can say that now.im used to it all, i know my way around but its only still normal to think of home right? :) RIGHT!
so there. i blogged! HAPPY RYAN ? :)

AH! im back in singapore
singapore ROCKS!
the plane ride was kinda run
ryan hh shauna and i squised together on four seats
though we could probably have taken entire rows for ourselves
cuz it wasnt a crowded flight
we watched movies together
had a pillow fight
ate an obscene amount of packet things they give out with the drinks
we found out after its 500 calories per little bag
and i had what 15?
ryan insists i eat like a man.
thankyou very much
:)
its the first time that ive traveleld without my parents
the guys kept callin me mummy
cuz i handled passports n immigrations cards
HEY i wanted all of us to get into singapore without any trouble
and they kept fooling around
plane food was bad as usual
i thought shaunas was bad at first
so i ordered the other
and it looked unidentifiable
we promised each other that we wouldnt sleep!
and.. we ended up.. sleeping
:/
we weree sooo excited bout getting back to singapore
we kept checking the screen to see how far away we still were
RYAN!
SWITCHED ON HIS PHONE ON THE PLANE
for that
he got twacked on the head by all three of us
i seriously wanted to make it back to singapore ALIVE
thanks ry.
really
okay so the plane eventually touched down
and we had this LONNG discussion bout hard n soft landings.
all in favour of SQ landings
that was how bored we were :)
we prayed HARD
that our mangoes didnt get squished
and whoohoO!
they didnt
i was daydreaming n looking out for my family
i nearly forgot my luggage!
it probably went two rounds
and i had to chase it before it made its third
everyones family was there on time
BUT MINE!

i nearly melted
it was such a kodak moment!
everynoe was soo glad to be home

it amazes me really how time passes so quickly.
it seems just day ago i was starting school
but our bridging course is ending in like.. a week!
okay. i am HALF relieved.
half.. SIAN as everyone else wouold put it
cuz it means the main programme will be starting
and that means 9-5 classes.
the past few weeks
have been like a holiday for me
three hours of classes a day
and nothing else.
ive wasted ALOt OF TIME.
in melbourne. everyone is so relaxed
its almost hard to just watch them
i think i actually prefer being pushed!
anyway
i convined my parents to let me come home for CNY!
whoohoO! i miss my parnets
but my tickets kinda screwed up
long story
so ill know tomorrow if i get to go home..
i reallly hope so
its been the only thing on my mind for the past few days
after schoool heading to the travel agency and all that
theere was a messup with our names
but these dates are perrrfect
mum says to keep praying about it
this situation is so not within my control anymore anyways..
today i woke up too late again
ryan shauna and i headed once again to vic market to buy fruits
more mangos
i bought strawberry mangos! to try out
it looks pretty good
if its good
and i get to go back
il get a big box for my dad.
and cherries too!
mummy promised me BAKUA! whoohoo
i can already smell it
AND THE EXTREMELY GOOD PINEAPPLE TARTS.
i had a dream last night
of the plane ride home.
ryan shauna hh and i
all sitting together
on the plane
irritating each other
but still! on the way home.
it was such a good dream
that when ryan told me to wake up
i wanted to sleep n carry on dreaming.
i miss home sooo much
espeically now
since AL moved a few houses down
and rina moved upstairs
im all alone
and its kwite sad really
i told AL i might start talking to the walls.
i had to endure two days of a room smelling of paint fumes
and then construction IN MY TOILET!
came back from going out with debbie today
we walked town n did nothing basically
we talked bout old times
primary school was soo super duper fun
:)
it was good
and i tried jap food!
yep
then we headed for bible study at jessie and joels place
which was a more get to know u session
wasnt too bad
we had a debate on stars and candles.
candles won
SHUCKS!
i swear we were GOOD anyway!
")
hopefully it all works out
if it does
ill be home on the 11th midnight..
and ill be leaving on the 20th.

One Last (Album-Blessings)
by Taufik Batisah
Album
:
I never could imagine, life without you
From the moment you walked into my world
Never knew how long a loving flame could burn
But losing you has forced me to learn
That we cant change the way we feel inside
And every try at love never turns out right
We both know its better if we just let it go
So lets have
Chorus:
One last kiss
One last touch
One last tender moment between us
One last dane
To our first song
While pretending theres nothing wrong
Lets stay here for awhile and
Cherish every moment we're in denial
We both know
Its better if we just let it go
Everytime i try to take a stand at all
I see your face again and I fall
In the middle of the night theres the scent of a rose
The smell of your perfume I suppose
But we cant change the way we feel inside
And every try at love never turns out right
We both know its better if we just let it go
So lets have
Chorus
Baby if we met each other under a different sky
Maybe then things would be much better between you and I
We could always hold on to this one special thing we share
But it would be too much for us to bear
So lets have
Chorus
We both know
Its better if we just let it go
TAUFIK
ROCKS!
despite everything kelvin says :)
liz blew a kiss at 1/14/2005 06:23:00 PM
its been a week of school so far
not too bad
ive survived!
im slowly learning to do things on my own
washed my own clothes
cooked my own food
walked there n back from school
i know how to go to the supermarket and town now :)
so okay
its definately a start
its getting alot easier
classes are still goin pretty slowly
its the aussie pace of life they call it!
hookay! well . i guess being in singapore aka the pressure cooker ur entire life
this feels like a perpetual holiday
okay its cuz its still part orientation week
so itll get better
i hope
yesterday nisha rina and i decided to go to town to do a little shopping
melb weather is very unpredictable
it was a horrible 30plusplusplus degrees in the afternoon
and after we walked out of the mall
it was.. 15?
we were all in skirts
and freezing out butts off cuz we were too lazy to carry a jacket
we went to QV to get a fan after that
shivering trying to make our way there
cuz our room really heats up in the afternoon.
esp since theres NO fan
and NO air conditioning
but i like palmerston
despite all this
aunty jessie and uncle joe are REALLY nice
they do singaporean food
so i wont be THAT homesick
im getting more n more used to staying here
AL next door
and rina a couple of doors down
last night
AL and i went out for dinner at this chinese restaurant down lygon street
AL takes forever to eat
actually
forever to do anything
he dosetn wake up in the morning
he made me late for math class
so i left without him and he couldnt find his way to school
:/
anyhows
we walked n talked after that
to borders
he got so many new books
which i am going to KOP! when hes done with it
i wnana read the iyliad and the odessy!
just for the fun of it
knowing me
ill prob not get thru it
but ill try anyways
AL reads poetry.
we were discussing poetry.
it was hilarious
haha i was telling him bout the melancholy death of oyster boy
and he was telling me bout shakespere!
we eventually made it back round 1030
and i was sooo tired by then
so much walking here
really tires u out
mom went to qv market today
and got me LOADs of fruits
got cherries mangos apples peaches and grapes :)
YAY!
so now i have enough food to last me a long time
counting my secret food stashes all over the room
my yougurt tops and yougurt!
soup and ONLY the best potato chips in the world!
going out for meals is reallly reallly irritating
which reminds me of the leftover food AL and RINA left in the fridge
pizza
yummy
its saturday
and my moms going home today
then ill really be alone now
ahh think im going to cry
the whole time it was easier with mom being with me
and teaching me what to do
AH i miss my family
eve and her retarded way of talking
ethel YAAAARRRRR! =p
my daddy
:/
anyways
al and rina are still knocked out
prob nursing bad hangovers now

since ive got so much time on my hands today
FOR ONCE!
decided to give a lil MORE detail on the trip so far
yesterdaY! went strawberry picking, its really FUN!
strawberries blueberries and cherries are all in season right now.
dad knew some guy in the industry so he told us which variety to pick
ULTRA HUGE
and ULTRA SWEET
amazing!
the sun was pretty bad
weather went from 15degs the past few days to a horrible 35
sunblock is a must no matter what
cuz it dosnet totally feel cold
so u dont really think about the sun
so u just turn red and u wonder why
!
anyways
halfway to the farm
we stopped by this little town in borneo
they were having a fundraiser for their fire station
I LOVE STUFF LIKE THAT
little stalls put up by the people who stay there
tried their scones and poppyseedorangecake with icing!
it was super good
it reminded me so much of GILMORE!
whih reminds me i havnet finished downloading season 5 yet
and im not done watching season four
anyone who hasnt watched gilmore is CRAZY!
its one of my FAV shows EVER!
anyhows
after that it was to uncle drew abercrombies hse!
his summer pad is AMAZING!
its huge
by the sea and just so comfortable
it has a pool a tennis court and a HUGE KITCHEN and fire place
we went out on his boat
water was really choppy
but despite being so far out
amazingly clear
u could see nearly to the bottom despite it all!
very salty water tho
left a sheen of salt on my body
got a pretty bad tanline
but waddaheck!
it was fun
hes got two sons james n bayles
and its so cool
how james is fourth is aussie for competitive stunt skiing
and bayles is the first for obstacle skiing!
they are pretty cute!
very friendly boys you got there!
his wife reminded me so much of darlene
which might have daryl jumping up and down exclaiming how pretty she is
SHE IS!
and its so cute how they have their little couple fights!
poking fun at each other
we got a lil history lesson on portsea
and he was saying how a shed by the beach today can cost up to 200 000!
woahwoahwoah
he has like i duno. 6 cars
and the bently and porsche is REALLY nice looking!!
they took us to dinner after that
the boys and us had a lil competitoon to see who could get the highesrt in this game!
IM SECOND!
whohoo
bayles got first :/
came home EXHAUSTED
but woke up early for church today
swanston street church of christ
right smack in the middle of town
it wasnt too bad
except for the horrible cramps i was getting
the aunty n uncle who r taking care of me at palmerston took us there
an deveryones realy warm and friendly
i met the youth pastor for international students
and hes setting me up with the cell grp people once i get over
he says fitting in will be NO PROBLEM :)
what i need are friends who know how to have fun
and yet are serious about their relationship with Christ
exciting exciting
sometimes i feel excited
other times just plain afraid
but its too late to do anythign now!
i guess
january its just me and my roomie for a month before my cousin comes over
!
THEN CARMEN AND JOELLE AND ANDREA
ah
familiar faces
at least i know im not alone in this
wer all staying at differnt places
but schoolings the same!
so it isnt too bad i guess!
im kinda near to the victoria arts centre
since i LOVE musicals
dad agreed to let me watch those that i wanted here
yAY!
im gonna work ultra hard here
realized it takes so much money to come n stay.
living expenses, allowance and everything
it appalls me and how some people can come here n play around
and not feel guilty about it
i definately would
many people rthink coming overseas is running away
but somehow i dont feel so
melbs like the top20th university in the world
and i hope i get in!
i need an average of about 89 percent over a hundred per subject to get into the course i wanna get into
*crosses fingers
im going to be a POWER SUITED WOMAN ONE DAY!
=p
anyway!
i get back in 2days!
first few things im gona do!
meet up with the girls!
GM!
and the boys!
I MISS ALL OF THEM SOOO MUCH!

Oceans apart day after day And I slowly go insane I hear your voice on the line But it doesn't stop the pain If I see you next to never How can we say forever Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you I took for granted, all the times That I though would last somehow I hear the laughter, I taste the tears But I can't get near you now Oh, can't you see it baby You've got me goin' crazy Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you I wonder how we can survive This romance But in the end if I'm with you I'll take the chance Oh, can't you see it baby You've got me goin' cRaZy Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you
i started listening a lil more to the lyrics
currently
very attatched to richard marx n bryan adams.

in aussie right now
its summer and its a frigid 15 degrees
can you just imagine what the winter will be like.
staying at uncle thomas's house
and its kinda nice and cosy
been doing... all sorts of things
saw trinity
its so cold n gloomy here it feels sorta like england
but i guess its cuz everyone is on holiday
shops here close at like.. 5pm?
so theres pretty much NOTHING to do after a while
we;r getting the new jag and csi ny seasons here
and the OC
tho i havnet managed to catch any of them yet
its three hours ahead of sg here
but ive seen to lost track of time n date now
moving here in about a month
been doing LOADs of thinking recently
about the next few months.
im going to miss sooo much about sg
the cost of living in melbourne is just sooo high
and the food here is prettty horrible
i guess nw im beginning to appreicate singapore
somehow. im excited about what next yrs going to bring
:)
new campus, new friends, new subjects new exposure
i guess i should consider myslef lucky cuz im given this chance to do all this
im going to miss so much
playing upwards with joel
giving darly big hugs n listen to him go on and on and on about orange and being the iss champ
yewtings cute smile and him aweing at everything
shirleen and simin :)
CHARLOTTE!! omg.
guoming arguing with me over riding his bycicle and going downstairs to .eh buy ice cream :)
larry and our occasional little talks on the phone
so much adjusting to do!
four years is a LOONGG LOONG TIME!
the roads feel so foreign now
not for long tho!
i learnt how to read the melway! directory
next ill learn how to cook and wash my own clothes
a real growing experience they say
well maybe!
yeah definately the next few years will be tough
esp with all my bestest friends in the world right here in sg
but some of them have been extra supportive
sometimes u just need someone to tell you that you can do it and not to be afraid
and it just makes ALL the difference in the world
the place wheres im staying at, palmerston
is kinda cool. cuz sarah and i get our own BIG room with an attatched bath room and a balcony
auntie and uncle cooks singaporean food for us
so homesickness will be cut down definately by the BIG amount
its an excuse tho
to go on a major shoppign spree!
new jeans sneakers shorts berms! tees and ALL THAT! :)
WHOOHOO
THATS ONE GOOD PART
and whats cooler
on sundays
they bring us to church with them
and the pastor this pastor from wesley methodist in sg
and theres lotsa international students
so i guess it prob wont be that bad
today i tried walkinf from palmerston to melbourne u and it isnt THAT far
i didnt count being extra lethargic n freezing cold tho
but anyways!
i have 14 days with evryone when i get back
i cant WAIT to get backk

poor lady kept havin to wipe off the mascara smugdes on my foundation cuz i kept blinking
told aunty jenny to do whatever she wanted with my hair
pointed to eve and told her i loved my sisters fringe
and she cut me a little one
!
mad rush to change after that cuz clara was ultra late with the keys
the usual stuff
dinner icebreakers the prom king n queen contest
prom queen was very unexpected!
we all planned on voting clara!
somehow we all got so preoccupied trying to saboh daryl that we forgot!
crappers

felt like star search
he did a pretty lame version of the catwalk!
and got kicked out after the first round!
sigh! :/
anyways
everyone decided to wear black with strappy shoes
so everyone going up n stage
was in black n strappy shoes
it was weird cuz it gave me the feeling the same girl; was winning over n over n over again
spent the entire night taking pictures with everyone
camera didnt work so i had a personal; camera man ! JOEL ASOGAN!
:)
thanksboy
we didnt stay for the dancing
oh yeah n char came! sat at our table
lied to the teacher that she was from 4e3
free food!
spent the rest of the night in the hotel
after buying about ten bottles of water from 711
and bags of chips
after spending eons removing the makeup!
and figuring how to use the shower
(we ended up bathing in cold water)
guoming helped me remove the million pins in my hair
and after that
it stood up in a thousand different directions cuz of the hairspray
mandarin dosent provide conditioner
so i emptied the entire bottle of shampoo in my hair
we had 6 more bathrobes n towels sent me
all of clad in bathrobes
under the sheets watching tv n talking nonsense!
so it was mostly joel kenneth guoming shir n i up talking all night
the view from the room was amazing by the way!
we talked about how the boys used to get punished at home!
hilarious!
somehow we all fell asleep all over the room throughout the night
i dnt know how shirleen found the chair comfortable!
the next morning
shir n i woke up hungry
so we went down for breakfast
in our pyjamas and hotel slippers
food was pretty bad
