i cannot believe it's been almost a year since i moved out of home O: this year has flown right past; it feels surreal. everyone i've met this year has somehow influenced and shaped me... so so so glad i made the decision to move :D i feel more motivated now that my future is truly in my own hands (although i am very lucky to know that my parents will still catch me if i fall). these holidays

once is awhile is ok, but i get annoyed with people who constantly post on fb statuses like 'gave a hobo 5 bucks today- feeling great about life!!!11' and 'helped a blind lady cross the road, somebody give me a trophy!!!111!!11' get over yourself. do it because you want to help and not so you can brag to your friends. in other news, i just paid rent for the place i'm moving into soon! it's

meila took this photo on her iphone when we were walking pongpong at the carlton gardens! the boy jumped up a massive tree to pick a flower for his lover, and when he was up there she nervously called out "be careful!... what would i do with a broken you?" we thought it was so romantic~ the flower had huge white petals arranged in a rose-like dome pattern. let's see... i don't actually fully

people have left and left and no matter how many times i'll have to go through this as a non-local student... i'll never get used to the feeling. you never meet a person knowing how close you'll get or realising how long you've got with them ): which makes me realise how much we should all appreciate our friends while we've got them here! last night was dan's farewell since he's back off to KK (

30th nov, wednesday i guess exhibitionism and narcissism are slowly evanescing from my list of character flaws; hence why i haven't felt the need to blog everything i've done in the past coupla weeks. lately, i've been having so much fun with a close group of friends-- something i haven't committed to in the longest time! before this year, i've always felt more inclined to float around between

working four days in a row drained my life bar down to about 30% i helped N out with his shift on wednesday cuz he had exams, and D out on saturday cuz she hasn't been feeling well. working late nights means i end up only falling asleep at about 5am (the buzz from running around for 8-9 hours doesn't die down for a coupla hours after work) and waking up at midday. i've been running more (on the

i think that the kids of gen Y have a very powerful ambition to be 'anything but ordinary'... i should know; i'm one of them. many times i've found myself having conversations with my friends about seeing the world, trying new things, and going on wild adventures! i guess it's something all young people go through- none of us want to be stuck in the same city for the rest of our lives, '

here is a disclaimer for a wanky post. have you ever considered that life is a giant placebo effect? as a person who is agnostic, i don't believe that there is a one true God in this universe. i *believe* that there may be a higher power somewhere, but also that all Gods are essentially that same being described in a hundred different ways for each culture to relate to. it's possible there is a

only ONE exam to go! i had accounting this morning and it was ok... haven't slept all day. well, 2 hours last night hardly counts (before waking up to cram again).  add 'lost in translation', 'the ice storm', 'dazed and confused', and 'little miss sunshine' to my list of movies to watch this summer~ can't wait for it all to be over.  i had lunch with sam, martin and lisa today! we went to hare

photography used to be a HUGE part of my life. i would find every chance i could to 'make art'... but slowly over the course of this year, life caught up to me and (after splitting it between uni, work, friends, and boys) time became sparse. i've so far only been able to shoot in melbourne TWICE out of the 2 semesters, but have squeezed in a couple on my trips back to brisbane.  yesterday, i got

it was comforting to my ears to hear so many heartlanders around me last night~ it was SG's 46th birthday, and melbourne celebrated by holding a parade of our own in the nice little venue 'Billboards', on the corner of russell and little bourke st. i hung out with callum and watched Extras for a coupla hours or so before i went back to my room at 9:30 to get dressed and 'put my game face on' *

charles is such a lovely boy. i called him up yesterday to ask if he was interested in accompanying me for a shoot; he ended up driving and picking everyone up, lending me his amazing D700 PLUS 85mm lens and his new tilt shift lens (which cost $1.8k) AND he also let us shoot in his backyard. sarah is a family friend of ours (sam is my little sis) and is only 13 years old (: she has gorgeous half

a coupla nights ago i was snuggled up in bed with person x, watching a great sci-fi flick about the splicing of animal and human DNA. the movie (Splice by Vincenzo Natali) featured a cute little beast child who quickly evolves with disturbingly human features, then regresses back into a barbaric hybrid-animal form. the story follows two scientists (in a relationship) who are trying to develop a

last night i went to Eurotrash with tash, ben, sonal, sasha and hayden~ it was my first time going clubbing on a non-asian night and, honestly, all in all it was just... plain ol' mediocre :\ the upstairs d-floor was closed, and so i'm sure everyone downstairs felt like canned sardines (i was struggling to move around between very-drunk-people and drunk people). the only redeeming factors was

asos is pissing me off a little... this is the second zipper they've sent me that malfunctions. the first was a high waisted skirt, and now it's a black sweetheart dress (wanted it in olive green but sold out before i could order it. damn!). anyhow and irregardless, there are other things i can focus my attention on... such as the 2 items of wide leggedness i now own (: my first pair of 'withered

the past week was one filled with sealed tears and many goodbyes~ sam came home from singapore and we had a lovely day together to make up for the past month of her absence. we actually slept all day (like the little pigs we are) and woke up for dinner at Shanghai Dumplings (highly recommended for students [cheap food]) on little bourke st. i had xiao long bao and she had prawn and spinach

everyone around me is leaving or gone... people i've bonded with so closely for one semester are flying back to their respective countries and it just hit me that it will be years before i'll see them again. in that time, we would have all finished university and gotten jobs, a couple of us taking our masters somewhere across the universe~ it scares me how quickly time has past! recap the past 4-

saturday night was fully sick, bro! my friend emily came down to melb from the golden coast and i took her out with my neighbour, zy (from glasgow). it was kinda hard to decide where to go since there are less 'asian' nights on saturdays than fridays (when i work). i ended up settling on bass lounge, as cliché as it may be... but not once has it managed to disappoint me (: anyhow, a friend of a

but not really... just to us it was. we're so used to wallowing in our own goon/beer filled dorms that last friday night's limo party was a huge step up from our standard of partying. there is a certain allure in extra long cars with sparkling roofs... the girls dressed up in their finest frocks and the boys in their handsomest states~ i think it's sweet that we've seen every single one of each

interesting logic concerning chastity and marriage. i watched a coupla (2... 5... ok... 12) episodes of Freaks and Geeks from last night till this morning, and a very memorable thing the good Christian girl, Milly, said is"why should they buy the cow when they can get the milk for free?" i don't have much of an opinion when it comes to (extremely) personal stuff like sex before marriage, but i

yes i've been meaning to share this for two weeks now, but haven't gotten around to it! since the last time we spoke, i managed to land a job AND started studying for my end of semester exams which are coming up next month. i'm thrilled! anyways, my birthday was on star wars day, and i didn't really get up to much... but the day after, i caught a cheap-as tiger airways flight to sydney to spend

For the rest of the day, week, month, year, life. Have you guessed who I am? Sometimes I think you have. Sometimes when you're standing in a crowd I feel those sultry, dark eyes of yours stop on me.

is paratha a bad meal to start your day with? D: i got up at 4:30am again this morning cuz i slept at 8+pm (which is terribly/insanely early for me). i wrote a short draft for a group assignment that's due soon, but no one else seems to be posting anything on the facebook group. there was supposed to be a meeting at 9:30, but i checked the wall just now, and apparently it's cancelled. cool story,

last night i left home at 9 for some friends' housewarming party in chinatown. on the way, i stopped by chi lounge and chatted with willie, who was trying to convince me that everything always works out in the end and that i shouldn't stress (about looking for a job). it was my first time going out in about 3 weeks, and things it felt ever-so-refreshing! i missed socialising with people and being

i woke up later than i'd hoped because i stayed up late last night on the internet. isaac called right after i came out of the shower and reminded me about lunch (bad memory!)... i got dressed and met up with him and his friend (bad memory! what's his name again?) and ate at Ying Thai 2 on lygon st. the food was amazing, as usual-- i had the chicken and cashew nuts and we all shared a pot of

i've definitely ranted about this topic before (not this situation though), but this is a fresh cut. there's a guy who lives in the same building as me who is one of the most enthusiastic and (i guess) friendly people you will ever meet! not saying it's everyone's cup of tea just how excitable he is, but if i'd have to gauge on a scale of 1-10, he would be a 12. very loud, approachable and warm/

camwhoring in my new coats from asos cheered me up a little... i left for a jog a coupla hours ago and hid my keys in my locker... came home, heated up my food and skipped the routine of going to my room first. ate, washed up my bowl and put the lock back on...

So it's been more than a month since I arrived in Melbourne, and I still end up smiling to myself whenever I'm walking along the street and thinking about it. This feels so surreal; just last year, I was sitting across the table from Deena at Shanghai Dumplings, talking about how much I'd love to move over... yesterday, I was in her position, talking to a friend from Brisbane about the same thing
