currently cannot study for 131! why? because all this programming codes are turning my brain into mush. so i thought i would take a break and get back to writing blogs.. which i don't think ive written in since my last exams...sucks.

thought id post all the random things that you may or NOT know (mostly not) about me.

- when i eat pizza, i crave Big M's iced coffee

- when making jam & butter on toast, i use about 3 knives

- i love baking cakes, but i don't get how people can eat the bowl after = raw mixture = yuck

- i am really picky about my mango

- i get annoyed when i talk to people and they're not listening, so i have to repeat myself

- i love italian style eggplant parmigiana

- i think i am a little alergic to eggplant, but i love it

- i get itchy after eating prawns too, but i love prawns

- when eating fish, i seperate it into 2mm pieces, to be extra sure there are no bones

- oyster is divine in soysauce and rice

well over the past 2 weeks, felix has been helping me build my very own gundam figure. and ive nearly finished it, just eneds more finelining and tweeking up by flux, then i should be done =D im excited to see if i did it right, and if its up to standards. i had heaps of fun building it, although, i prolly won't be building another one for myself for a long time to come. why? well, its very tedious. lol.

the one i built was Wing-zero. my fav lookin one, since i think most gundams look pretty much the same =P shh. the next one i wanna see built though, is the sumurai gundam. it looks interesting. so maybe felix will build it n il watch next time =D

Adelaide

2008-07-16T01:07:00.000-07:00

well ive been in adelaide past couple days. and ye..was ok. our first day [sunday 4am] we drove off to adelaide, flux & myself drove. tookus 8 & half hours exactly to get there. which was pretty good considering it was my 2nd drive and flux first drive there. we took a break when we got there, and then that night we went to this amazing restaurant that served such nice food. the gnocchi melted when we ate it, the calamari was soo tender, the deserts were so unique, and the risotto = yumm!

on the second day, we toured a couple shopping centres in adelaide, very different to melbourne, in a snese that people follow the speed limits, and their very very carefree. but the shops were the same, that night, we had people visit us. three little kids, wonderful kids, the littlest one was a laugh, coz she was very tempremental, and she ate heaps, and drank half a glass of vino. LOL

on the third day, was crap, we had to drivve home, and that was kinda boring, and very intense. i drove first, and i cudnt see a thing at first [eagles cliff] coz of the fog. the furthest i saw was about 2 meters infront of me. and now, exam marks come out tomorrow, not very excited. but also uni is back, which sucks, but i guess im excited to see everyone again.
btw. this is a picture, of a bottle of port that a friend gave to give to another friend here in melb. i found it funny. coz its the most random thing i saw there. PS. today [wednesday] the highlight of my day: seeing an old man put on skate shoes at a mini iceskating rink for kids, in epping plaza. the guy there was holding his arm, and teaching him. LOL

that all for now.

What ive learnt recently.

2008-06-26T05:19:00.000-07:00

Wow, its true you learn things everyday.

Today:
i learned that this guy is a model and that he used to sell BALUT (that's this egg with chick still inside, boiled and eaten, yes its gross.) It's just fascinating how simple people become ultra famous. ha! i also recently learned how to pronounce ISUZU, it's said as "ay-su-zu". I also learned heaps during exam period, but thats all gone now, my brain has formatted for the holidays.
Enjoy that pic! haha [O_o]
