Here's my update for this week. Had one of the busiest week ever..! Had 2 assignments due..! meaning not attending much classes on Mon. and.. tues was a holiday which i spent finishing the assignment, and wed had a 3hour lab.. that was it. And thurs was the usual. 9-5 class.. tiring! and the fun part begins..!


first event : Bush Dance!! ok, when i first heard that, i thought that it was like dressing up in grass skirts. Like indians.. or something like that.. apparently Not! it's a more of a cowboy thing. So what's more cowboy than flannel shirts??


Here are some photos:


That's Daddy Shae, Cheddar Yedda and Me! All from block 5!


That's Carmen and me. We both have the same shirts.. Got it from BigW. From the lil boys section. Yes, i repeat, the lil boys section. Not exactly the cheapest thing in the world though.



The regular trio.



My secret fantasy.. beating up ppl! I'm tough ppl, don't mess with me!


2nd Event: Road Trip to Hunter Valley. Actually, Newcastle is in Hunter Valley but, we went and visited the vineyards.. And it was winter. Never quite think that there will NOT be any grapes there!


See! It's completely BARE. Even my uncle's porch got more grapes than that!


but oh well.. it was fun anyways, wine tasting rocks! besides the fact we drove the most awesome car i've ever driven. It's soooo smooth, that you can't compare it to smooth peanut butter or ice cream, or even milk..! it's amazing.. and SPACIOUS.. and NEW! just 18km on the meter. We rented an absolutely new car. sigggh.. it was gooood. My new baby. Which i parted with the next day. sadly.. i'll miss you.



See! All of us love the car.


Wine tasting was fun too of course.. And we took the breathalizer test after to ensure safe driving. And me and my friend drank the same amount and somehow she had 0.000 while i got 0.016! but anyways, it's a good thing.. i got to rest and relax as the driver fussed over directions.. keke..


The Breathalizer


and i bought this awwweesomee dessert wine! it's the best i ever had. (actually that's not saying a lot cause i don't drink alot.. but still....) The view around hunter valley was really good. Here are some photos.

The day didn't quite end there. Since we had the car for the day. We decided to make full use of it. Driving it to the grocery store, gym (yes we DROVE there to walk, and the gym was less than 10 minutes walk away) and we drove to Evatt House (which was just across the road) to meet some friends. And of course, we drove to the beach at night too! A bit cold, and had my first Hokkien Mee in..... 7 months?!! it tasted good but the noodles are the thin type. Sigh, Malaysia serves the best food ever.


Event 4: Next day, was soooo bummed, but had to wake up at 800 to return the car, took a bus to develop some photos to find the machines not working. Took another bus trip back and slept til arvo. Had a meeting with friends. And then... went to a drive-in theatre!! It was my first ever and it was EXACTLY like in Grease!! It was supppper awesome!! and i'm not kidding!I felt as though i travelled back time. It was gravel road, and there was a small old but well-maintained building selling food. it was friggggggiiinngg cold though! thank god i had a blanket but still, i was shaking.


Price wise, 40bucks for a car. and three new movies! the simpsons, die hard 4 and knocked up! what-a-deal! but i kinda slept through knocked up, cause i've seen it before.


And sunday came, and i had another meeting with friends, and i TRUSTED my housemates and left my room door un-locked. And guess what? BIG mistake. Evidence as shown below,


They TP my room! aiyo.. and guess what, my RA(shae) just watched!! and did not stop them!.. Thank you very much guys! i appreciate it. But honestly, it was done pretty neatly (the knots at the side). Doesn't mean i'd allow it again though!

Well, after that whole scenario, we had a unit dinner!! and it was Pizza Night!! Shae rolled up some doughs, and I put toppings on mine!! Mine was The Best! well, not really, actually, shae's was the best. Olives do make a lot of difference! And we had Apple Crumble with Ice cream for dessert.. yumm.. And now here i am, supposedly doing my lab report, but here am blogging. Ok, back to work.. sigh. Will look forward for the next weekend!
