yes i have had better days

well anyway today i went swimming wif sam, i think we did 1 kilometre..and we were both so buggered...then we went to watch rally australia which was actually quite interesting, i want a car of that sort one day. then we went to nb grab some bubbletea and jus chat..yeah..haven't chatted to my budd for quite a while..took my mind of stuff for a while, which was good..

exams are finally over..FA was a killer, apparently some guy was crying in the exam..well i can understand him..it was..impossible..lets just leave it at that..

im off for now
ta

2005-11-01T19:42:00.000-08:00

3 more days and it all begins..FARKKKKKKK...
then again..9 days and it all ends too..
Jez man reckons his car can beat my car..man you WISH..your car doesn't even show how many revs u are doing..and no power steering..imagine if..we had to race on a meandering road? you would be STUFFED..but yes..we shall see eh..but you listen to classical music..and hence u have CLASS so i will..go easy on you :P
hmm..melbourne cup yesterday..makybe diva won..no suprises there..
anyway josh got his exam deffered to next year...don't know why..but he's still studying now..dude..WTF..take a break man..you're like studying harder than i am..and i've got exams in 3 days..
yes anyway these few weeks have been most stressful, it all comes down to how many HDs or Ds u get, such is our way of life where people are judged by what course they do and what kind of results...GPA must be high or employers won't even look at you..this is what the Dean said...perhaps i was more suited to a career in music where everything was so much more subdued..and everything depended on your performance, which lucky for me i enjoyed..anyway speaking of music, last night on ABC classics they played the Grieg Piano concerto...made me remisnce of Concerto night last year..i didn't really like the way the performer interpreted the music but none the less it was a good 30 minutes well spent listening to it..
i will be back in malaysia/singapore from 4 december to 4 feburary..i guess i don't really wanna be back there for so long, but thats mainly cos i'll miss somebody in perth heaps..but i guess i'll get to see my friends who i haven't seen for more than a year now..
well i guess its back to economising again..macroeconomics is a KILLER..
Lord have mercy

Right to terminate a contract in the event of breach of contract;

Innocent party has a right to terminate, it is not automatic
Innocent party has a choice between termination and affirmation. Guilty party cannot compel the innocent party to make one choice or another; it is entirely up to the innocent party.
If an election is made to terminate a contract for breach, the parties are discharged from all their future rights and obligations, but any rights or obligations that have already approved prior to termination will remain.
Termination does to render a contract void.

Yes, contracts 102 study is ongoing. So is macroeconomics 102, statistics 160 and financial accounting 101. Stressed out, i am. I need a 75.25 average this semester to keep my average over 70 and keep my scholarship. Perhaps too much slacking off in semester 1 has paid its price. Work hard, i will..
ASIA agm coming soon, stilll unsure who to vote for..
Sick of my mum's nagging, not helping my study one bit.
Missing somebody alot too..
btw like my blog? decided to spend the early hours of this wonderful day of the sabbath finding it.

kk back to study now
ta

yes.

2005-10-04T07:19:00.000-07:00

september was a very eventful month.
firstly there were a heapload of birthdays, all the parents enjoying their new year, forgetting their protection.
then there was the MSU ball and ASIA cocktail.
speaking of cocktail.. w00t .. 2600+ people?
a DAMN good ASIA committee dance?
downside was no matter how much i drank i nv seemed to get pissed
drink queues were massive.
but knowing i was part of the event..and helped make it possible was..icing on the cake
september was also our 1 month anniversary and tina's bday..
which i hope she enjoyed as much as i did.

holidays are over and uni's back.
SIS started yesterday, though i failed to follow up my effort to study today. perhaps tmr.

eyes hurt..gonna shower

ciao

im sure you'll get over it

2005-09-05T07:04:00.000-07:00

yes.
no.
i don't care what others think.
im sure you'll get over it, approving or not.
not gonna let em' take away my happiness.

btw.
this poem is for tina, when u do read this, hope u like it :)

I love the way you touch me,

Always sending chills down my spine.

I love that you are with me,

And glad that you are mine.

strawberry cloud lollies

2005-08-28T07:42:00.000-07:00

yes, believe it or not, strawberry cloud lollies, they could be the best thing that ever happened to Mankind. They're red, and they look like clouds. Simple, yet simply amazing. My obsession with strawberry cloud lollies, started today. I had one and it struck me like pen through paper (ok not the best analogy, but yeah), they were the bestest tasting lollies i had ever had. The sensation one gets from such lollies are beyond words.

ok i'll admit it, i've never actually tried a strawberry cloud lollie in my life, but, that won't stop me from blogging about one, will it tina? :P

well anyway, today was, to cut a long story short, lovely. Just as the past 10 days or so have. And with that, i shall end my blog for today.

yes, i will also take this opportunity to advertise for ASIA cocktail. its on..sept 30th (i think), tickets off me yeah? :)

A New Era

2005-08-24T08:09:00.000-07:00

Yes, im finally updating this blog. For those die hard Nic Fans (ok they're probably none of those), well sorry for not updating for so long, my life has been pretty hectic and busy lately, notwithstanding the fact that i've got 3 exams in the span of one week.
Well, ever since i've turned 18, my life seems to reached a new era. Its like i've all grown up now, i can do almost anything now, which really gives me a sense of elation sometimes. Nevertheless, work goes on, i got this piano student who lives in city beach, get 30 bucks for 45 mins, which is more than what i would've got working for kumon for 3 hours a week. But more importantly, something lovely happened on the 18th of this month. Something lovely also happened on the 23rd of this month, and yes, they both occured in the presence of somebody really special to me.
I dare say both days would be right up there, to be my happiest days of the year so far (im sure they're many more to come).
Back to macroeconomics study for now...
Circular Flow model = ZzzZZzzzz

2005-07-17T23:11:00.000-07:00

yes thats right..uni has reopened..and my first day, was more a day to catch up wif frenz i hadn't seen for a long period of time - the holidays. first lesson at 9 am such a waste of time, some dude called nizam khan for stats 160 telling us stuff that..we had all heard b4, but at least he's cool..and not boring like nandita rath we got for maths 165 last sem. anyway after that met up wif the eng people and had lunch wif them at broadway, and basically chilled at uni all day, handing out "pretty" invites to my bday :D thats right...my bday is this saturday the 23rd of july :D finally 18, and can go to liquor shops,clubbing, well do anything and its legal.

well anyway the past week was pretty eventful...ended up spending most of my weeek out of the house wif the guys..i think...if i remember correct. friday we had bowling, and i must say i fared pretty well despite having not played for a few years. yesssssssss...spin those balls..and strike them :D so skillful, jkjk. then after bowling we went for dinner wif the asia peeps, then played pool wif felix and josh.
saturday had lunch wif the guys, and played soccer wif some random arabs who wanted to challenge us...we won the game, but we had more players. we had some drinks after the game, and jus chatted...yeah...i realise we talk abut the most random stuff...darren makes up all the rumours..lol..i spread them..jkjk i don't, i don't have a big mouth, though many people would beg to differ...and the eagles won that night.yeahhhhhh..own those brisbane lions.
sunday, amy n anne came over to discuss our birthday celebrations. my mum says they're very polite and talk...alot...more than my sister...lol..they are really nice though..and funny...always arguing wif each other..they gave me some minty chocolate...mmmmmm so nice :D well we decided that it shall be held at luk fuk in northbridge and drinks later at my house :D:D:D

yes well a short blog for a man short on time.
DOTAAAAAAAAAAaaa...
ok maybe not

unfair dismissal laws

2005-07-10T07:43:00.000-07:00

it seems that those antibodies that kept me in good condition till last night have gone on strike.
perhaps all that sport whilst unwell has taken its toll.
or perhaps its time to sack these antibodies and find some new ones.
government has passed new laws that gives excutives more power over workers, its time to exert that right.

cough cough

2005-07-09T04:22:00.000-07:00

ni hao.. ( :

yes well i hope you are good. cos im not...kinda crook..like headaches,fever and flu...very tough, think i'll have to take a break from stuff for tonite and tmr. i got bored and decided to go through my old year books. very interesting.

today, well, i woke up at like mid-day, don't ask me why, cos i don't know :S anyway darren called around half past 2 asking us to go play tennis at ccgs at 3. i thought i would be like the last person to reach there, but then, turns up i was the first...and i got there at like 3.10..everyone else came around half past. asians...pfft..
yeah anyway we jus hit the ball around for like 2 hours then we played some ball, tennis and bball, such boring sports...haiz..but i've been playing them for like the past 3 days. now my wrist kinda hurts. crap

anyway last night we went to nb, played some poker, darren had to go sit in some random room with some girls for 30 seconds, they were pretty friendly, didn't like chuck a huge sad or anything. infact they invited us in, but...we declined..hahaha then on the way to play pool we suddenly see them coming out of the karoke place, and Lee reckoned the pink one was hot..jason was like "are you serious?? she's horrible!!"
lol

yeah we played like 4 games of pool and as usual we had those dares that come along wif each game. haiz won 2 lost 2, sif.. im very...inconsistent : (
so anyway we Lee had to give eric a hug and I had to well i won't say what i had to do. But it involved going into the karoke room and saying something. Everyone was drinking in the karoke room, and shit man, alice and bwee looked kinda...out of it..so red..

at bball yesterday, we lost, again, no suprises there, but mannnnn..this blue shirt dude, got sooooo pissed off at me, wth man, must be my close checking techiniques, or my illegal screens on him..*hmmm*

thats pretty much what i've been up to for the past few days.
18th's coming up, amy,anne,xiang,me,bwee's birthday all fall like in a 4 or 5 day period...wonder if we're all gonna have something huge or...seperate

so troublesome. oh...naruto 142 is out...its crap though

to anyone affected by the London bombings, (if by any chance u read this), our prayers are wif you

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
Lean not on your own understanding,
In all your ways acknowledge him,
And He wil make your paths straight. "

introduction

2005-07-06T03:58:00.000-07:00

dear mr weather,

I write to complain about the chilling 0.5 degrees morning you made me wake up to. I have lived in perth for quite some time now and I must say one of the best things about Perth is its weather. Such absurdity of weather will not be tolerated. This is not Melbourne.

Yours sincerely,
Nic

haha anyway aside from such randomness, my day was rather interesting. I woke up being bored and wanted to go out, but everyone wuz busy, sif. So anyway i finished off my ironing which took me one hour rather than 4, i must have developed some skill for the profession. So then my mum suddenly reminds me, oh you gotta go to Hale today for some music thing, they sent a letter some time ago. WTH man, I needed to prepare like 5 pieces to play, cos they were getting last yr's music students to perform for this yr's yr 12 muzos. And as usual I was the first person to perform, ALWAYS me who's first. so gay. so i thought i'd brighten up the atmosphere with some jazzy gershwin, followed by the famous brahms intermezzo, and the chopin nocturne, a chopin etude and finished off with a beethoven sonata. Quite pleasing considering i hadn't played most of those pieces for like 2 or 3 years. All that music repetoire building has paid off. Im sure Faith would be proud of me. too bad it was so cold i needed like 30 mins to warm up my fingers

So anyway it was good to head back to Hale again after so long. Meeting old pals and old teachers again. It was formal dressing so i wore my suit wif my old haleian tie cos, i figured it suited the occasion. Mr Bushell suprisingly remembers that I was always the one who never buttoned my top button up, and wore white ankle socks wif black shoes and had colored hair. Today was no exception. lol
Saw Stroudy and he was organising the old boys v present waterpolo team for next year. my name was down. time to tear some trunks, since mine was torn the last time i played the old boys. revenge is what they call it

Got home feeling all musical, so i decided to attempt to write a song. I managed to get an introduction which sounded quite good (to me at least). Drop me a message if u wanna hear it, erm...i'll find a way to play it to you.

Had the weirdest epiphany today, wuz chewing some gum and i suddenly thought about Felix at mandurah, when he tried to kick his gum, and his shoe fell into the river. LOL.
Makes me ponder what my most memorable moments of camp.
What are your favourite moments of camp?

i hate kumon

2005-07-05T09:04:00.000-07:00

thats right, i hate kumon
im sure blair ward agrees wif me, i saw him write it on the table,
anyway i got my paycheck today. feel slightly richer, but not much...
cos i believed i've been cheated, some people call this child labour.
i know my rights... i should be getting paid 12 dollars an hour not 9
sif..

anyway my mum has left like half my wardrobe unironed, so i plan to spend like....4 hours tmr ironing my clothing, what would normaly take my mum like 1 hour or so. so slack man...she says "oh this isn't a hotel, i don't have to iron your clothing for you, you should be happy that i even wash it"
sif...if i was a girl i'd do my own washing and ironing, but wth im a guy and i gotta do all the HARD labour, like mowing the lawn and changing engine oil, so much for justice

anyway i wonder what i'll be doing tmr, maybe i'll catch up wif some old hale friends or go swimming training

laaaaaa deee daaaaaaaa

no idea...we shall see when the time comes :

this time....

2005-07-04T04:04:00.000-07:00

so there i was, taking a stroll down empire avenue when my eyes set sight on the horizon.
some people would describe what i saw as beautiful, personally, im at a loss of words.
i crossed chipping road and west coast highway, climbed the sand dunes and found myself on the beach they call city beach. there were people taking their dogs for a walk, some were fishing, others were just... walking
sunset struck, and what a truly breathtaking sight, a mix of crimson and scarlet lit the horizon as the sun went to sleep. dazzling.
there i stand, reminiscing, on the good times, and the bad, as the evening breeze sets in.

well anyway aside from my descriptive writing, i bumped into my neighbour who lives right behind us, mia, on the way home. she wuz taking her doggie for a walk, she says her mummy and her admire my piano playing, very beautiful and elegant. i wuz speechless, nobody ever said that about my piano playing before (thats prolly cos im crap)

had laksa for dinner, which was very fulfilling (for my stomach that is), and here i am.
shall leave you wif a stupid joke :P

knock knock,
who's there?
little boy blue.
little boy blue who?
little boy blew michael jackson

if only she could understand

2005-07-03T09:39:00.000-07:00

sunday, the day of the sabbath
woke up late after clubbing last night, was really scared some booze bus would pull me over and suspend my lisence for drink driving, some random chic danced wif me though i wanted to dance wif somebody else :(
didn't happen, but im sure i'll get over that
had some deep thought about stuff as i lay in bed this morning, asking myself questions...
i wonder how many people know what a wonderful and beautiful person she is, both inside and outside...or maybe its just me.. nv told her that cos she'd prolly not believe me anyway
so anyway i spent the early arvo helping my mum around the house, playing an hour or two of piano which was very relaxing, then i came online for a while and tina finally watched russel peters, bet she laughed her head off...
then i went for a jog, jus to keep fit, and mannn..it was windy as..
after that we went to uncle bob's birthday dinner at some chinese place in freo, he loves that restaurant, always takes us there for dinner, gotta admit the food is nice...
im feeling happier today..don't know why.. C:

off the mark

2005-07-01T05:15:00.000-07:00

woke up today, feeling like i was gonna die, my nose was blocked and lost my voice..haiz my beautiful voice :P
anyway well i sent my car to get the aircon re-gased cos it wasnt cold enuf, then had HJ's for lunch....
after lunch i went to uni to get some exercise despite my pitiful condition, hoping that some exercise would cure the common cold, obviously not.
well anyway me,mike,darren and jason played some badminton, tennis and indoor soccer, then had MSU basketball later in the evening, kinda gay cos we lost again, as usual and some blue dude chucked a huge sad at me cos i kept shepherding him (not screen, shepherd), he gave me like an elbow in the tummy and wanted to pick a fight then eric stepped in...what a loser...but he was okay at ball, better than us, then again almost everyone is better than us
haha then before that we played baddie and like i brought along some like super old shuttlecocks, which no matter how hard we hit it, would only fly like half court..lol so i thought i'd go buy a new shuttlecock, turns out they didn't have any in stock, only plastic one, so i bought a $3.20 plastic shuttlecock, we hit it and it flies a mile, and it breaks after like 10 mins..so we played soccer indoors, 2 v 2, that is so the wrong thing to do hey, soooooo freaking tiring, we became so buggered...so we played tennis, i pulled off a few forehand winners, missed like almost all the other shots, haha i suck so much at tennis..
anyway changed the layout of my blog...and my freaking tag board doesn't work anymore, had to get a new one...sif...i know my rights...
haha jkjk, i think i've been using that phrase way too much...

tan out

im homeeeeee

2005-06-30T18:23:00.000-07:00

im home from A.S.I.A camp, and its been almost like half a year since i last updated this blog...makes me wonder why i suddenly jus felt like updating this blog...guess there are some lingering feelings i need to get rid of.

ok, since i haven't updated my blog for THAT long, you probably don't know what A.S.I.A is, its an asian club for students based in curtin and uwa that organises fully sick events :D haha like camp which i jus came back from. anyway briefly, this is what happened at camp, we (a group of 50 close friends) went to bussleton (which is in the south-west division of western australia) for 4 days and went sight-seeing and bummed around getting tipsy and doing stupid things, and to cut a long story short, have a great time, well i did..though marred by a particular incident details i won't go into

i'll leave you with a song by david tao - pu tong peng you, which describes how i feel :

等待,我随时随地在等待　
做你感情上的依赖
我没有任何的疑问　这是爱
我猜　你早就想要说明白　
我觉得自己好失败
从天堂掉落到深渊,多无奈
我愿意改变 (what can I do)
重新再来一遍 (just give me chance)
我无法只是普通朋友　感情已那么深　叫我怎么能放手
但你说 I only wanna be your friend 做个朋友
我在你心中只是 just a friend 不是情人
我感激你对我这样的坦白　
但我给你的爱暂时收不回来
So I 我不能只是 be your friend　
I just can't be your friend no,no,no,
我不能只是做你的朋友　
不能只是做普通朋友

hope the chinese appears not as some squiggly random characters (:

2005-03-08T06:58:00.000-08:00

ok seriously...i've got a weird math teacher. she's indian(not that im being racist or anything) but her indian accent is just...shocking..i can't understand a WORD of what she says! oh and she gives too much homework everyday..which of course i do being such a studious and conscientious student.

anyway on the brighter side....I GOT A CAR!!!! its a honda prelude and its awesome (:

oh and erm....everybody please keep me updated on free food or BBQ locations, im saving up for something...*hint hint*

2005-02-25T05:52:00.000-08:00

ANYWAY...
law host day was well...extremely boring...we walked around the who university..like twice...with like 2 other people. wow so much for being a time to meet new people hey? well anyway the other guy in my group is like this wierd dude..and the other was erm some chic called lisa (i think?)..then on thursday it was commerce host day which was better i guess cos i my group had more people and i met 3 other malaysian chics doing law/commerce as well. haha they asked for my number!! too bad i forgot to ask for their numbers but thats cos i couldn't remember their names and i spent like the whole day with them ): im honestly trying my best hey...but too many names flowing through my brains...at least i can remember their faces..
then came O'day.
that was fun,besides getting a tan line on my face for wearing my sunnies under the sun for like 5 hours. not to mention my red burnt face and i quote my friend.. "nic are you drunk? your face is so red!!" well anyway O'day was fun..well maybe cos we got heaps of lollies (:
it started off with this speech we had in the morning in some auditorium i never even knew existed cos it was like....in the wilderness...hahahahaha im serious
an we got our class of 2005 key rings then it was time to head off to the O'day events on James oval. i spent like over 150 bucks today man...I joined the blackstones society, AIESEC (which i have no idea what it is), SABAS (sausage and buns appreciation society), MSU, SSS, ECOMS, the co-op bookshop and PROSH! I had no idea i joined that many.
well anyway i got heaps of show bags, lollies, chupachups (had one in my mouth all day). way too many fliers,way too burnt, way too many stickers which were all stuck on my shirt (: and i did meet somebody new from china who mysteriously knew my name??
lol.

2005-02-21T07:22:00.000-08:00

2005-02-02T07:43:00.000-08:00

jeez its feels like ages since i updated this blog...thats probably cos it has been ages..haha anyway err..sorry to the people who actually read this blog (im doubting many people actually do)..i shall tell the imaginery people who read this blog about my trip to melbourne =P
firstly i spent way too much money on clothing..cos u know..the shops are nice there..and its chinese new year so i need new clothes right?? ok other than shopping melbourne was a very dull and wierd place. the population in the ct is like 90% asian..and all the girls stare/look at you all the time so its so wierd..maybe i look like some guy from the small city of perth..anyway i went to this rialto building which is the tallest in the city where i had a very good look at the entire melbourne..which to say the least isn't THAT big...i mean compared to KL or singapore..its like...small..but the food there is nice..VERY nice..or maybe its the just the restaurant my uncle brought me to..
ok more about my uncle...he is an eye specialist who told me NOT to become a doctor cos its 13 years wasted...he has 3 children - natalie, ethan, amelia. Very naughty but...cute.
then after 3 days with my uncle i came to stay with my cuz in the city..he has an apartment which looks like a hotel room.so i explored the city for the next 3 days...and obviously spent alot of money...
we went to the crown casino for dinner and we saw lindsey davenport...apparently she is 6'2" and she sure looks TALL...and old...and she refused autographs..maybe cos she jus lost her finals match...THEN..when we tried to enter the casino we saw roddick..who looks very different when he's not wearing a cap and sports wear...and obviously i got bounced..cos oh.. "im sorry do you have any photo ID cos you don't look 18"...

i am so tired from work.. i had to work from 2pm till midnight last night, and from 2pm till 10 pm the day before ):..im so tired lor...anyway work was really funny yesterday cos like i was walking around the office area then i stumbled upon amber's(this lady who works at the place) lollies!! so being the sweet tooth i am i decided to take one...so coincidentally...she was working overtime too(it was around 6pm) and she tapped my shoulder...she claims i turned around with this guilty/shocked face..now that was really embarrassing..LOL..ANYWAY i was watching tv today..some american tv show and OMG..the jumpers they wear there are like..exactly the same as our leavers jumpers this year..so i guess i can wear that jumper and not feel embarrassed by its atrocious looks..lol anyway i read the newspaper and apparently the price of ipods are going DOWN..which means...i will be getting one really soon.. (:

hmmm its been pretty damn long since i last blogged...im at work now so i guess i can't slack off for TOO long =P...so anyway...today i went shopping for a pair of jeans and erm..a new pair of sunnies..after all i am working and there is a steady income going into my bank account..i bought this mossimo sunnies but i dun really like them now that i wore them home so perhaps i will return them later in the week...i think sometimes im too kind cos i always follow the girls shopping and carry their stuff but man...my legs get so sore after shopping with them hey..considering it takes them years to choose what they want..this is the difference between guys and girls

guy : find anything he likes,finds his size, approximate whether it will fit...buy...total time...15 mins

girl : walk into every shop, walk around the whole shop, touch all the clothing feeling the material, find something they like (after 1 hour) , try it on, make sure everyone think she looks good in it, then buy...total time 2 hours.

haha but i guess thats why i didn't really like the sunnies i got so maybe i should start listening more to girl opinions..
and perhaps spend all my free time shopping....lol.....IN YOUR DREAMS...

anyway my driving test is tomorrow which totally sucks...hope i pass...really hope i do..its daunting knowing that 7/10 people take more than one try to passs their driving assesment. anyway i want a toyata celica but my mum wont buy..how gay is that..she says i'll speed and smash it...as if man..

this year's christmas was fun..well first and foremost..i got quite a lot of presents..so im happy =) i got a new labtop,a book which i'll never read, a simpson's DVD collectors edition,a huge quiksilver pencil case and a pair of playboy pyjamas..lol..i tried them on today and they're actually quite nice..
anyway well this year's christmas was more of a movie marathon and non-stop eating and laughing than an actual celebration of the birth of Christ. we watched 50 first dates, the incredibles, trading lives, the exorcist, starsky and hutch, some really old but funny jackie chan movie...and erm..something else which i currently can't even remember the title of.
everyone played mahjong, or swam or watched the cricket and we've been doing this for like the past 3 days...lol and with new year coming up..im guessing this trend of lazy but fun days is gonna continue...lol...fire out man
anyway im setting up the TAN foundation...so please be generous and donate some money to support our foundation. All proceeds will go towards the purchase of a new ipod for me =)

i seriously do not understand the purpose of having a blog but anyway i'll try to update this as often as possible,my guess is this won't last more than 2 weeks but i'll still give it a try. Anyway TEE's over, school's out...and like every person i see or meet in the city is like ohh...how was the TEE? like seriously, how irritating is that? well anyway its like a month to go b4 we get our results back and honestly im not looking forward to this. Need like 99.4 TER to get into law/music at unimelb and i missed my auditions there. At least i know i passed the UWA music auditions. lol anyway im starting my third music diploma on monday, seriously im not a music freak, i jus love music.

Anyway this is what i've been doing for the past week.

Last Friday : Applicable Exam, lol such a waste of time finished with like 30 mins spare and then went for a haircut and left for leavers. Seriously leavers was such a waste of time, jus a mass orgy of drunk people partying like crazy. Well sorry but not my place, i mean i enjoy dancing with friends but with strangers, especially drunken strangers is not cool. Anyway leavers ended on tuesday for me, came back with like super tanned after spending all mornings and arvo's at the beach in the water...it was freaking 36 degrees for crying out loud...anyway thank goodness for after sun creams..
Wednesday : went KTV with friends and hahaha we wasted 3 hours of our life singing, but i enjoy singing so i guess thats cool. well anyway i stayed over at gerald's place that night cos he's was leaving for singapore and i wouldn't see him for like another erm..2 months?
Thursday : went to the hairdressers in the morning and got brown tips on my hair...haha the guy was like yeah i know your friend so i give you discount..i was like..why..thankyou =) seriously the girl who washed my hair was friendly..and hot!!
Friday : went to hand in scholarship forms for UWA then went LAN with my mates from school and then went to pot black..ah..the interesting days of my Perth life. hopefully i do well and get away from this place...

Im starting work next week..im a piano teacher...hopefully earn myself some cash. enough to cover for my spendthrift self...i mean i hardly ever buy anything but each time i go out i spend $50...im seriously going broke...
