Uni group found out about my blog =O

Sorry folks, there's nothing interesting to see/read here. Move along. =P

I realised that I haven't blogged in a while haha...hmm Finished exams! Only one week to play before clinicals *sigh* ><"

In other news, am still haunted by the photo of a friend in what appeared appeared to be a tight, extended boob tube thingy. Not so bad you say? WELL IT WAS A GUY. @____@

*ahem*

Moving on: dead baby jokes are terrible, am watching Angel season 3 (yaaay), getting to sleep in (yay again), and may possibly try to paint something this week. =]

H O L I D A Y S !

A quick rundown of how I've been spending my [questionable] well-earned break. =)
  • 28.06.08 TSA meeting and then bummed with Louie and Shu in the city eating icecream from Passionflower and chips drowned in Peri-Peri sauce.
  • 29.06.08 Packed my bags...
  • 30.06.08 - 03.07.08 UNI PEEPS ROAD TRIP TO ANNA BAY!! =D 16 of us went and it was pretty cool. We didn't really do that much, but it was quite relaxing and lotsa fun. ^^v We played Mario Kart and Big Brain Academy Mind Sprint games on Wii, and Naruto on XBox. At night we watched Australia's Got Talent, The World's Got Talent, The Ventriloquist, The Illusionist, State of Origin and Mr. Bean. We hit the beach, went sand boarding, watched the sunrise, and hiked up some small mountain and had a LOT of BBQ. When we ran out of hot water after 6 showers we boiled water in pots and poured it into the bathtub for people to use. And then when we ran out of gas for the BBQ we took our empty tank and swapped it with the one next door. XD
  • 04.07.08 Max Brenner meet up, except that we were kinda split up into 2 different groups and Bethany was working the whole time. Bumbo, Weasel, Kathy, Jack, Louie and I bummed at EB, JB and MYER afterwards while the others caught a session of Kung Fu Panda.
  • 05.07.08 Present hunting for Dango in the city with Jo and Dodgy Man, except I ended up buying jeans ehehe...
  • 06.07.08 Failed dinner for me and Dango... *tear* =(
  • 07.07.09 DOTA (yes, I went to play) in Burwood with Baldy, Steven, Subin, Simon, Sheung, Daniel, Michael, David, Dodgy Man, Thien and err I forgot who the last person was...Got presents from Baldy, Michael and Simon aww... XD Afterwards I headed to Helary's place and joined the Stratty gang and ate while they stalk-booked ahaha...
  • 08.07.08 Watched Kung Fu Panda with Kathy and Jo at Burwood. Bumped into Bumbo and Louie! =O Plus I finally got to 'meet' Whoosh muahaha... >:]
  • 10.07.08 Hot pot at Zhi Wen's house! Also played Mario Kart and Big Brain Academy Mind Sprint on Wii haha
  • 11.07.08 LJ DAY! aka Lewis and Jack wo Produce Day. Went to Chatswood with and we got them trying on several shirts, none of which they ended up buying. In the end Louie and Jack got a haircut and we tried the 'Happy 7-11 Day" thing but didn't get free slurpies.

FREEDOM! =D

26.06.08
After the CPR refresher course at uni, Baldy, Jo and I made our way to the city where we obtained free coffee from a big orange tent in the hobo park =) Naturally we went for sticker photos, but we somehow spent too much time at Capitol and missed our session for Get Smart...ahaha...^^"

So we went present hunting for a while then concluded that we wouldn't go watch the movie as I was meeting up with Bumbo and Louie later. Baldy and Jo kept me company on a bench outside World Square as we waited for Louie. It was so cold and windy there but we were too lazy to move ehehe...At some stage a random was trying to cross the road (coming towards us) and was bouncing his basketball across the road trying to look cool when it rebounded off the curb and rolled back the way he came, forcing him to turn around and run after it ahahaha...XD

Louie came eventually so Baldy left while Jo waited with us for the others to come. Jack and Bumbo came but Kathy didn't, so Jo went home after having waited in the cold for her aww... ><"

We went to maccas for a bit then sang at Greenbox Plus for an hour and then had dinner at Star City since Jack wanted to play poker. Finding a table in Star City took forever since there was a high demand. I tried the 'big or small' game thingy with my $10 voucher after I signed up, but I lost... =( While Jack played poker, Bumbo, Louie and I went in search of shots since Louie felt like drinking. Turns out that Star City does not do shots, so we ended up buying and sharing a lemon lime bitter, sex on the beach and some other drink with lime and grass in it...

Anyway, we listened out for the name called for the cash grab but predictably it wasn't any of us. So we sighed, continued drinking and taking photos and then went home. Well, actually only Bumbo and Louie went home. I stayed over at Bumbo's house keke...XD

T'was my first time at Star City heh heh.

27.06.08
Well, we woke up a little late but we still ended up meeting Louie and Jack at Stratty to shop for ingredients. It took us a while to find everything since Woolies had undergone some renovations and we didn't know what type of meat to buy from the selection at the butcher. Anyway we got all the things we needed and then waited at the bus stop talking about things like Louie's P fail, Jack's gastro, and Bumbo's courage fail AHAHAHA...XD

Bus came and we all scabbed off Bumbo's travelten ehehe. When getting off the bus my plastic bag broke and the orange juice fell onto the floor in the aisle causing Bumbo to laugh at me
-_____-"

Arriving at Bumbo's house we alternated between playing Mario Kart on Wii and slowly making the Beef Wellingtons and Creamy Mushroom Soup. It took us forever and we were starving before the Wellingtons were done so we drank some soup first and resorted to eating packets of instant noodles while we waited. ><" When they were done, the Wellingtons tasted pretty good. =)

Having eaten at last we hit the sofa and drank our homemade drinks (sex on the beach) and watched Love Actually. Jack got to see lots of happy time ahaha and Louie kept giving spoilers and then laughing at me when I tried to quote something from the movie to explain to Bumbo bleh...

I didn't recognise Colin Firth at first and was slightly disappointed with his character. No where near as good as Mr Darcy from the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice teehee~ <3

All in all, a pretty good two days post-exams =)

Double J Bday

30th May: Jo's 19th
Cindy picked me up around 4:30ish and we made our way to *stab stab* Campsie, Cindy being the driver and I the trusty navigator. It took us a little longer than expected to find some parking because the one way streets were REALLY narrow and we kept missing them. Plus it was hard to read the map because of the lack of light...

As we walked toward the station and the shops we bumped into Sai who was also early, so together we bummed around for about an hour until Jo came to fetch us and lead the way to the Korean BBQ place. We talked with Kathy and Katie while she went back and forth fetching people, and we all saw something we didn't need to see...guy sitting on floor with back facing us and jeans that were just a little too low cut... *shudder* =S



Eventually everyone arrived and the next two hours were filled with eating, talking, laughing, eating, taking photos, present opening and more eating. I would've taken more photos but sadly I was stuck on in the middle of the table against the wall and couldn't get out. So instead, my camera circulated around the table. =[

We finally realised that the staff seemed to want us gone so we relocated outside to say our goodbyes and figure out who was doing what. In the end only Kathy, Katie, Lynette and I stayed behind to bum at Jo's bro's place where we decided to play Wii Mario Kart because there wasn't enough time to watch Shutter. Kathy was Yoshi, Katie was Mario, Lynette was Donkey Kong and I played as Toad (naturally, heh). It was really fun, and even though we were all noobs, only Katie and I kept screaming and exclaiming...ehehe... XD

Anyway I got a call from home so I had to go, and Jo was really nice and offered to ask her parents to drive me (plus Lynette cos she was staying over) home. =D


31st May: Jax's 19th
Got to Central pretty early so I took my time walking to Broadway, then checking out the sales until I noticed it was almost 2pm and started heading towards Cotton On just as Louie was on his way out. Good timing. =D

Ate lunch at Tomodachi (yes, no one else came. Kathy was nerding and I didn't know Jack was free the WHOLE DAY omg...I was so nigel afterwards) and the lady sitting at the table adjacent to ours randomly asked us what we had ordered (hot pot and ramen). Louie paid but he still owes me money ehehe...

So Louie went back to work and I went back to window shopping, but got bored of Broadway and slowly made my way to Market City. Man the wind was COLD. =S Finally got to Market City and I still had like, 3ish hours until Bumbo and Jack would get to the city T_____T I slowly browsed through the shops and had to sit down on benches cos my feet got so tired. Some random came up to talk to me and started asking me all these questions, but he was a nice person I guess.

Being nigel for three hours in Market City was not fun especially since I was banning myself from buying anything, so I was compleletly bored out of my mind. Finally Bumbo and Jack came, and THEN I was told that Jack had been free the WHOLE day and omg they should have told me sooner...I didn't have to be nigel the whole day!!! T______T

Anyway, they showed me the present that we got for Jacqueline (a PJ dog) which had a 'sus' part near the tail ahahaha...O.o" Jack and I tried to persuade Reanna to let us go to GJ's but she refused, bleh, so instead we went to EasyWay (where we met up with Louie) before going to Capitol instead to write the card.

Man, the card was so blank. =S

We hurried off to Seoul Ria after that and found that some people had already arrived (but at least we weren't last, yay). There was a couple of people I didn't really know and neither did the others, so we kinda just talked amongst ourselves instead. When we finished dinner and took all our photos we headed to the skill testers in Capitol and bummed around there for a bit. Jack won a tiny dog and Kathy really wanted this set of three dolls but the machine was really hard. =/

They went to line up outside Passionflower afterwards and so Reanna, Jack and I decided to leave because it was already 11pm (I was staying at Bumbo's house, otherwise I would have had to have left a third of the way through dinner =S). Even though we were pretty tired, Bumbo and I still managed to chat until like 3am when we decided we should sleep ehehe... XD

A Very Long Day

What was supposed to be just a 'meet-up' turned out to be quite an eventful long day. We organised to meet up in Burwood at 11 but, since public transport sucks, I ended up getting there closer to 11:45...ehhehe ^^" Not my fault since I was waiting at the bus stop since 10:10 and TWO BUS SERVICES DID NOT COME. Then there was trackwork, so services to Burwood were few and far between -but enough about transport woes and on with the more important details.

Not much actually happened to begin with. Baldy, Louie, KTF and I (Bumbo had work and Dango dogged me) ate lunch in the Westfield Foodcourt then we went to watch Indiana Jones (Louie had to go home for his driving lesson) which wasn't too bad. =) The whole 'crystal skull' thing was a little over the top and a bit too far-fetched for my liking (if they wanted to go Sci-Fi I prefer the Stargate version of the crystal skull and the 'giant aliens'), and there were certain scenes reminiscent of The Mummy. They had visual references to the previous Indy movies which I thought was cool, like the whole quicksand-and-snake thing, showing Indy lecturing students, and the statue of Marcus Brody.

Yeah. Good movie. =)

We parted ways after the movie and I caught the Rail Bus to Ashfield to visit Bumbo. Was just about to say hi to her when Louie messaged telling me to wait cos he was coming too. I thought he wanted me to wait so we could go see Bumbo together, but it turns out he thought KTF was there and so didn't want us to leave cos he wanted to see Bumbo's reaction. Oh well.

Louie finally came and we dropped in to see Bumbo who was quitesurprised/confused to see us ahahaha...and Louie was cut cos she kept addressing me mostly lol. We bummed around and waited for her until she finished and were invited to her house to bum some more lol. We didn't stay for long because Louie had dinner waiting at home and Bumbo's family were going out to eat. I was invited to join them and oddly enough Katie's family also went to eat at the same place we were eating. TP and I started speaking like fobs, saying stuff like "You know, me? I know, you." "This one, you know?" ahahaa we must've sounded so retarded...

Bumbo's family is cool. =) [ahaha I just realised NONE of them got Louie's Michael Jackson joke...they all needed to have it explained XD]

I got dropped off at Stratty and I made the mistake of waiting an extra minute for the express train instead of getting onto the all-stops. The express was UBER SLOW (and I froze my butt off because the train carriage was cold) and because of that I missed my bus. I was like, going up the escalator to the bus stop, only to see my bus leave. T_______T Nooo....*spirals into oblivion*

Stoopid buses come hourly after a certain time -plus it was a weekend.

Then, cos Louie said he was going to Max Brenner with relos, I asked if I could join, but they weren't there yet. Louie asked me to try get a table for them so I headed over to the bustling, cramped shop. Geh, waited ages in a line that didn't seem to move while constantly checking if there were any spare tables. I wondered what I should do if I happened to see a spare table -should I leave the line and go hog the table? or should I continue to wait in line? In the end I reasoned that I'd have to stay in line because it'd just be plain dodgy if I hogged a table without ordering anything -not to mention that I'd be sitting by myself. -_____-"

As I neared the counter I realised that I needed to think of something to order. If I bought a drink they might not give me a table number since they could make it on the spot, so I scanned the menu for something more affordable. I couldn't see anything cheap so when it was my turn to order, I pointed to a plate of waffles, strawberries and a chocolate lick that was on the counter waiting to be served, and said "Can I have one of those?" Whew. [Gahhh it cost me $15.05 including 10% surcharge since it was a weekend! ><"]

Then I had a most pleasant experience standing around nigel holding a table number and hovering around the tables waiting for someone to vacate a spot. =S [Once I looked outside to see if there were any outside spots available, and saw an asian woman by herself looking in my direction, waving and smiling. I didn't recognise her so I turned around to see if she was waving to someone behind me but didn't see anyone so I turned back to the woman who was STILL smiling and waving, double-checked to see if she was waving to someone behind me, turned back around and slowly pointed to myself with a confused look -to which she shook her head and I turned around again and FINALLY saw her friend waving back at her and making her way outside to the table. OMG how embarrassing].

Eventually a nice couple offered me their table which I accepted gratefuly. A minute later the couple next to me vacated their seat also so I quickly joined the two tables and sat there looking like a nigel hogging much sought-after tables and seat [luckily I was sitting facing the window and not the line of people waiting to order and find a table O.o"]. Inevitably I was asked by two different people if I needed BOTH tables, and yes, I replied, I did because there were more people coming soon sorry. Felt like such a hog... >___<"

Luckily I didn't have to wait long as Louie and relos came soon after, but after a few minutes half of them decided to leave because they were fed up with waiting (they waited at a different Max Brenner earlier and weren't served, then drove all the way to Parra only to find it similarly crowded). Anyway, food finally came and it was super sweet @_@ and I saw (or rather she saw me) Celine! Very unexpected ehehe... ^^

Louie got owned by his younger cousin who fully snubbed him when he was trying to bag him out and I talked a bit to one of his uncles who has also lived in Canberra. =D Louie made me ask one of the waiteresses if Bethany was working, but apparently she'd already gone home. =( Oh and we were asked TWICE by different waitresses if we had finished eating when it was quite obvious we still had food on our plate. Talk about good business O.o"

Finally finished the waffles and Louie walked me to bus stop and I thought it was really cold -couldn't even keep my finger steady when pointing to the timetable bleh. He kept laughing at me but was kind enough to lend me his jacket. Bus came on time for once and then I was on my way home
[it was kinda strange when I got off the bus because none of the streetlights were on O.o" ].

So yeaaah. Quite the eventful day. ^_________^ v

Shutter -___-"

Yesterday after submitting portfolio; eating with Dory, Jack and Carl at Ichiban Boshi; fixing Carl's phone; and shopping at Cotton On, we saw Shutter and IT WAS CRAAAAP.

Carl was hiding behind her jacket and was pretty scared and Louie had his hoodie up and full covered his face with his hands ahaha...pretty funny. It was soo not scary, and yes while I do look like I'm scared, it's just a natural instinct to cover most of my face, so that in the event that I AM scared I can quickly hide.

Most scary bit? Hmm..not so much scary as it was freaky, but it'd either have to be the part when he was in the darkroom and Megumi was humming and caressing his neck (except he thought it was his wife), or the part when he was in the darkroom developing the photo and Megumi appeared in the picture and the chemicals splashed onto his face. O.o"

Afterwards Baldy opted to go Capitol to try his luck at the skill tester machines (and omg he ended up winning so many O.o") while we met up with Mandy and her boyfriend (can't remember his name...oops...was it Kevin??) and re-visited Cotton On then bummed in Market City Galaxy World.

I BEAT LEWIS IN BASKETBALL! muhaha...XD

We split up afterwards and Jo and TP joined us for dinner at B,B,Q City (yes, it does have commas). We had to wait ages for a table but eventually got to order Korean Rice Cake Hot Pot and err...some beef soup thingy...

It was yummm ^____^v

There were two tv screens playing Korean mvs, one on the wall behind Jo and Baldy, and another on the wall diagonally to the right. At one point I was discussing the Korean mv playing on the screen with Baldy and Jo (who could see the one diagonally behind me), and after Jo said something Louie exclaimed incredulously, "How do YOU know?!" AHAHAAHA he sounded so amazed me and Jo cracked up so much... XD

Had to leave around 9:30ish to meet my brother at Railway Square then bused it back to where he parked his car at work and drove home.

What Happens in Vegas

After Oral Viva yesterday (geh, just my luck to have gotten that lady as my examiner...), and finishing up the Physics assignment with Jo, we headed out to Burwood. Fi drove and the first thing we did was grab some food from the food court to smuggle into the cinemas =) [Parking was interesting too, but I shall make no comment seeing as I don't even have my P's yet.. T___T ]

We watched 'What Happens in Vegas' because we'd missed the sessions for 21 and Shutter. It was actually better than I had initially expected and the good thing was that the cinema was completely empty (except for one guy who came in a little later) so we laughed and talked as loudly as we liked~ xD [though the poor guy must've suffered through the whole movie listening to us laughing... ^^"]

One of my favourite parts was when Cameron Diaz was demonstrating how to put the toilet seat down. Dressed in her nice work clothes she held the toilet seat up with a pair of tongs and lifted it up and down saying "Look, it goes up....and it goes down" aahaha so hilarious man~ along with other bits too. XD

Jo couldn't stay for the whole movie due to work commitments and afterwards Fi went home and Michael had to go to work too. I wasn't nigel though cos Carl had come to find me. =) We walked around Westfield for a bit before Louie joined us and we headed to Bello's. They decided to shout me cos I was feeling emo after the Oral Viva~ aww they're such good buddies ehehe ^_______^

As usual we chatted about a lot of random things and laughed a lot (especially Carl, but that's normal haha) so by the time I got on the bus to Parra I was feeling quite cheered up and not so emo anymore. =)

So, in summary:
  • Stoopid examiner
  • Stoopid assignment
  • Hilarious movie
  • Great friends
Oh, and I am so not catching the bus from Burwood anymore.
Bleh. -____-"

De-stressing 2nd May

Started off the day with a cervical cancer shot before heading off to TownHall with Kyoya. Louie came from JB to join us in waiting for Jo (who was half an hour late =P). Upon Jo's arrival we set off for Norita and played a few rounds of Tumbling Monkeys until around 3ish. I barely got any monkeys muhaha...^^v Tumbling Monkeys lost its initial challenge after the first two games and afterwards we were pretty much playing simply for the sake of playing. When we got really bored of it we started pegging the monkeys at each other when the staff weren't looking hehehe...

Afterwards we headed to Capitol but Jo had to leave =( I shouted Carl and Louie purikura [because I lost that stoopid bet -___-" geh...] and then we went to Greenbox Plus.

Al finally shouted me K, yay~!! XD keke...

Kathy came around the end of K and we went to eat Korean BBQ at City Potcha. It was kinda expensive and the service wasn't really that great but the food was good and I don't know about everyone else but I enjoyed it. It was my first Korean BBQ experience! =)

When we'd eaten our fill we wandered over to Passionflower and carefully analysed each item on the menu, trying to get our money's worth and being the cheap, tight-ass asian uni students that we were:

Louie: OMG! The pancakes here are so cheap! 2 stacks for $7!
Me: No...look they have 4 stacks for $10!
Louie: Oh how about this one? 3 stacks with one scoop of ice-cream for $12
Us: Oooh.... *scanning the rest of the menu for even cheaper items*
Louie: Or how about the...
Me & Louie: *both point to the picture on our respective menus* CHOCOLATE!
Kathy: Jinx! *looks at the Chocolate description* It's only got one scoop of ice-cream...
Louie: Ok then how about this one? *points*
(pause)
Kathy and Carl: Tha'ts not ice-cream! THAT'S CREAM!! *pointing accusingly at the blob of cream in the picture next to the single scoop of ice-cream*
Louie: *looks at it closely* Oh.

Ahh...I'll never forget that. It was such a classic tight-ass asian moment ahahaha....XD

Anyway Carl's uni friends came to join us and waited for us to finish eating because they wanted to go to Maloney's and see Carl get drunk ahahhaa. While they chatted about plans for their friend's birthday, Kathy, Louie, Kyoya and I continued eating and started our own conversation.

I still reckon that the guy at Passionflower had Sasuke-like hair. =P

At Maloney's, Carl got an expensive but interesting-looking purple drink which had 4 or 5 different things in it. Louie broke his self-imposed "no drinking" record. =O Kathy and Kyoya declined to drink and I was prov so Al shouted me a B52. It burnt my throat and I started coughing so I had to put it down when I'd only drunk half the shot...ehehehe....but yeaaah when I recovered I finished the rest of the shot and hoped not too many people had seen my noob-ness. ^^" Louie accused me of ruining it though because I'd failed to knock it back all in one go.

Afterwards I had to leave and meet up with my brother who was still in the city and getting ready to leave so Kathy, Kyoya and Louie decided to leave as well. While I waited for my bro, Louie bought Kathy her lollipops and some random lady came up to us and asked us if we were Chinese or Korean. O.o"

My brother finally came and I waved back at the others as we ran for the bus.

Quite an enjoyable day. =)

Deception!

Thursday May 1st
Watched Deception with Jo after uni and it was pretty good (except for certain explicit scenes...O.o"). The plot was quite interesting and it kinda remined me of something else I've seen, but I still can't think of what it is. =S

They could have done so much more with the storyline instead of showing all those scenes -__-"

I was kinda disappointed when they didn't follow up the thing with the kevlar and the tennis racquet. The bit with the old asian lady in the hotel was funny: She was slowly handpicking cubes of ice from the ice bin in the hallway as if she were picking individual pieces of fruit at a market. Then, when asked by the main character if she needed help, she stopped, turned around, glared at him and said slowly in English I can manage thankyou, before turning back around to finish her selection of ice cubes.

Soo random. XD

Taronga Zoo!

Friday 25th
When I got to Circular Quay I bumped into ShiShan who was also early and we didn't have to wander around too long before we spotted Sheung and Andy. Fi and David came late and the weather looked pretty gloomy, but we decided to head off to the zoo anyway.
It was a pretty fun day and we saw practically all the animals and even watched a seal training show- though I was satisfied after I saw the penguins. =)
One of the seals was really cute, on the trainer's cue: These animals need to watch out for their natural predators... the seal started swimming in circles, leaving only one flipper above the water. XD
At one point Fi was attempting to take a photo of an emu, but it started defecating so I said Fi, you scared it! She didn't get it until afterwards *sigh* ahahaha...
After we left the zoo ShiShan went home and we met up with Jo for dinner at a Burmese place in Stratty (I also got to satify my fortnight-long craving for Korean rice cakes XD).

Prom Night

Watched Prom Night with Jo, Baldy and Michael on Thursday 24th after uni and it was VERY disappointing. Waste of time and money. =( The stalker guy was pretty freaky, but it wasn't really that scary and most parts were quite predictable. The funniest moments were probably:
  1. When it was all silent in the cinema and the girls sitting a couple of rows behind us suddenly squealed in fright, LOL
  2. Baldy constantly saying "stab, stab".

So yeah, pretty crap movie.

>>emo day<<

Monday was Pon and Zhi Emo Day! Physics was more like a tutorial instead of a proper lecture so we ended up taking more photos than actually doing work ahaha...

Pon and Zhi emos under the desks...

Pon and Zhi emos against the wall...
Group of emos and not so-emo emos...

So extra...

Helped out at the TSA Harbour Cruise Stall at Main campus on Friday from 11-12ish. Handed out flyers with Andy along the walkway and we tested out our marketing skills. I finished handing out all my flyers before Andy did, but then again he had more than me to begin with ahaha...At some point Al joined us and helped us hand out a couple of flyers and we had a few competitions to see who could hand out their flyers the quickest.

When we had no more flyers we said our farewells to the rest of the TSA committee members present and went to join Reanna and her group for lunch to celebrate a birthday for their friend Sherman. We caught the bus into Townhall and headed over to Ichiban Boshi only to find there weren't enough tables -if we ate there we would have to split up into three groups. So we left and tried Full House which, true to its name, was completely full. Someone noticed there was a booking under someone called Marilyn, and I joked that we could pretend I made the booking and go "You spelt the name wrong, it's Mary Lin, not Marilyn."

Having no reason to linger in the restraunt we left and discussed where we should go. Eventually we decided on Seoul Ria since it always has plenty of space and Sherman preferred to eat either Korean or Japanese. After we'd eaten, cut the cake and they had taken photos to their heart's content we all went our separate ways. Some people had to rush back to uni for lectures, some had work, others wanted to go shopping and some just went home.

On the other hand Lewis, Andy and I decided to go K. =D

For some odd reason we were given a really huge room even though there was only three of us -not that we complained. We sang for 2 hours and continued to sing for an additional 14mins even after our time was up ehehe... It was fun though and we were pretty surprised it took so long for them to kick us out.

Longest record so far muhaha...XD

Free sushi and Nice Bus Drivers

Rocked up to uni early today and saw two fire engines parked inside Gate 2. Not quite sure why they were there, but I suspect something may have happened down at JDV because all the workers were sitting outside.

Went with Jennifer to JDV during common lunch to join the line to redeem our Campus Rewards vouchers for a free sushi roll and bottle of water. We both chose salmon sushi which tasted horrible -the rice was soggy, the seaweed was soggy and the salmon wasn't very fresh.

The rest of the day at uni was pretty average, BACH was boring and Rad Prac finished early. As always Lynette, Jennifer and I wrote stories to pass the time during lecture.

STORY 1:
Dango sat down and a million voices cried out in pain. She had sat on
[insert insect] a giant cockroach. Mary was so hungry she thought it was a
[insert food] cheesecake. They moved onto something a bit more kinky, this was a
[insert food item] pickled ginger. Dango secretly took a photo of
[insert name] Sheung. Andy was jealous of the relationship between Sai and Sheung. He wanted him back so badly he even
[insert action] kickboxed. Andy was watching on the sideline. He then planned to
[insert action] stalk
[insert name] John (lecturer). He was blabbing on about the C-spine. Lyn was keenly paying attention, not because she thought it was interesting, but because she secretly believed that he was Santa.
Because of this she...was totally bored in the lecture
she was attending the afterparty celebrating Jo kun's achievement in
[sport] lawn bowls. Mary was practising for the future where she'd play lawn bowls 24/7 with her significant other
[insert male name] Michael. Lynette in the meanwhile was sitting in the lecture with the story looking at the others wondering why they were taking so long with the next line.
Silly silly Lynette. Lynette was so silly that she mistook Andy for
[insert male name] Daniel the Olympic powerwalker. He got mistaken as an illegal immigrant and got shipped back to
[place] Townhall.

When we had all finished for the day, Denise, Lynette and I decided to walk to Lidcombe since it didn't seem like the bus was coming. We got past the TAFE when we spotted the bus coming on its way to uni, causing us to start exclaiming and waving our arms to the driver. The driver stopped to let off a few passengers and was kind enough to wait for us to cross the road and hop on before taking us back to uni where we picked up other students wanting to go to the station. We gave the bus driver a tip and he honked the horn at us after we got off the bus ahahaha...

Once at the station we immediately set off in search of food. Lynette bought Korean sushi and I bought cheese and bacon bread. =)

We got to kickboxing at around 6:30pm, and by then it was quite dark and gloomy outside. Today's session wasn't so bad, it was less intense compared to other weeks but my shoulders are sore now and I kind of died during the last few excercises.

I'll sleep well tonight. xD

Bludging in Lectures

Jennifer, Lynette and I were bored during Rad Prac so we decided to channel our boredom into something creative -yes, we wrote stories. xD If you don't know what kind of story I mean, it was one of those ones where you write a sentence, fold it over and let the next person continue the sentence. So anyway, here they are, unaltered in all their random glory (although I fixed a few spelling mistakes I didn't correct the tense).

Key: Me, Lynette, Jennifer

STORY ONE:
Jo kun needed to go to the toilet but the line was too long so instead she resorted to crouching down behind a
[insert object] pink polka dot underpants. Dango thought this was extrememly sexy, so sexy that she
[insert action] hugging Sheung just to feel his tank arm. Mary got jealous on the side, her ears were fuming with smoke and eyes were angry looking.
[new sentence] Dango was feeling hungry so she rummaged around in the bin and found a half-eaten
[insert food] dog food. Mary thought it was so delicious she went back for
[insert number] 20016 of serves.
Mary had a little lamb...but there were too many ethics involved and Jo kun was so confused she decided to seek advice from her secret love
[insert name] Steven. Mary was so turned on that she started to
belly dance. She liked to shake her booty like a salt shaker.

STORY TWO:
Dango had an unusual habit of staring for hours at
[insert name] Sheung. Mary was checking him out on
[insert place] Mary's house. It was all very exciting and
[insert name] Andy decided to bake a chocolate cake just for
[insert name] Andy Ip. Andy finally realised that he had a rival for Sheung's love so he decided to win him back by
[insert action] jump up and down. The glee could not escape his face but alas he knew his time was up,
[new sentence] Jo kun woke up late and came into the lecture
[insert action] picked her nose, wiped it in a book, then returned it to the library. Unfortunately Mary had reserved this book next. She saw this and was
[insert emotion] happy and sad at the same time. How could this be possible?
How? The only answer: because Jo kun stinks and Dango is lame.

March

Soo... here's a brief rundown of what I did during the month of March (lacking a lot of detail unfortunately but I don't have time to write about each and every event as a new blog entry):

  • 06/03: Michael's Birthday + Mono Reunion! Our last lecture was cancelled so around 20 or so of us headed to the city at around 11 to celebrate Michael's birthday. We ate lunch at Sussex Thai before getting three rooms at Greenbox Plus for 2 hours. Karaoke was pretty fun because you could run over to the other rooms and see what they were singing if you didn't like or know the song that was playing in your room ehehe... Afterwards I met up with my Mono peeps (who I haven't seen in YONKS) at Starbar for dinner (I dragged Lewis and Reanna with me haha).
  • 07/03: Visit to Usyd! Met up with Angel and Lewis outside Fisher before checking out Blackburn and bumming at Broadway. Angel, Reanna and I crashed Bethany and Lewis's linguistics lecture which was heaps interesting! "You're missing out on a great spoon" Ahahaha...XD The tables there are the perfect height for you to rest your head on and sleep -wish we had them at Cumbo haha. For lunch, Angel, Lewis, Reanna and I trekked over to Thai Times Nine, and we invented a singing game to pass the time. After Reanna left for work and Lewis went to his lesson, Angel and I bumped into Waisze and we went for coffee at GJs then took purikura. Heh.
  • 14/03 - 16/03 TSA Vision Valley Camp! Met up with Jennifer and Andy on the train and we were one of the first people to arrive at Hornsby station. The bus ride to the camp site didn't take too long and we had dinner before performing our play. It was based on Harry Potter and I was given the role of...Quirrell. -___-" I couldn't even remember my lines properly so I had to improvise on the spot. I shared room 19 with Jennifer and Angela and we made several references to the "fourth" person in the room in an attempt to freak each other out. The next day we had Wacky Olympics and then Andy, Jeffery, David, Angela, Peter and I sat around playing Spoons for around an hour while the teams practised their skits. That night seven of us crashed room 20 and told ghost stories before eventually falling alseep in the early hours of the morning. The next day we had dodgeball and a big waterfight before we had lunch and left.
  • 18.03.08 First Kickboxing lesson! 'Nuff said.
  • 21.03.08 Basketball! Tina picked Mario, Shu and I up and we alternated between playing Donkey and 2 vs 2 for roughly 2 hours. It drizzled slightly but none of us minded.
  • 22.03.08 A Thousand Spices! Randomly bumped into Teresa and Aditi at different times and places. Went shopping with Denise in Parra from 1-5pm. We met up with Lynette after she finished work and then headed off to Homebush to eat with 11 other people from uni at A Thousand Spices. There was a whole table of Singaporeans, and the rest of us sat at the "multicultural table" which was dominated by the Sri Lankans, Indians etc. The cheese nan and buter chicken were delicious and I attempted to copy everyone else by eating with my hands. First time I've tried Indian food properly. =)
  • 24.03.08 Royal Easter Show! Went job hunting in Parra with Reanna and Lewis and ate lunch before bumming around MYER until Andy showed up. We ate at Hungry Jacks and regretted it because our burgers were literally SWIMMING in mayo. It just oozed out and dripped onto the table which wasn't too good for our appetites. When we couldn't eat anymore we met Theresa at Lidcombe and made our way to the Easter Show. Once we got there, the first thing we did was find the toilets ahaha... We walked around the place and eventually decided to go on some rides! We went on the Crazy Rollercoaster and some Worm thing. The rollercoaster ride was REALLY good -it spun and tilted and swerved in the rain. xD Geh, I saw the biggest Kermit ever hanging up as one of the prizes! Throughout the course of the night I tried three times to try and win a Kermit of some form but failed. The first time I got a bear which I named "Overflow" haha =P. On the second attempt we won a pack of giant playing cards which we persuaded the girl to exchange for a skinny pig which we called Lewis. On the third and final attempt I didn't win anything. T___T
  • 26.03.08 Long Reef Beach! Dot was kind enough to drive Denise, Zhi Wen and I there. While Denise and I took photos and mucked around in the back, Zhi Wen navigated and Dot drove. There were around 25 of us from uni and another 10 or so people from Baulko who didn't really mingle with us. Jennifer, Denise, Fi and I ventured out into the waves and held hands to support each other (we weren't really between the flags ahahha). Afterwards we crowded around the stoves volunteering to be guniea pigs in the quality control process. The task was long and we were all very careful and meticulous with our sampling. In the end it was widely accepted that the meat was ready and we took some over to the table where everyone else was sitting. xD We also played beach volleyball with a human net and a soccer ball.
  • 27.03.08 Easter Wii! Bummed at Bumbo's house with Kathy, Lewis, Weasel and Jack. The day consisted of Wii, DS battles and random games at the park. As always it was another fun filled day: TP stuck a "OWNED" label on Lewis' forehead; we took group photos; TP and Weasel forced me to eat wasabi beans; we ate lunch with rabbids yelling in the background; and I stayed over for the night. ^^
  • 28.03.08 Bumming in the City! We woke up a little late (oops) and so poor Waisze had to wait half an hour for us at Strathfield before we headed off to eat lunch at Poporo in Market City. Afterwards we dawdled for a bit before gettng KEEKI from 85^oC which we smuggled into Greenbox Plus ehehe... We had a lot of fun and set ourselves the task of finding a song that Waisze knew how to sing: "Ok, you HAVE to know this one" "Omg everyone knows this one" "This one, this one!" When our time was up we ventured into Fujiya (yay~) where Helary joined us for dinner. The food was gooooooood~ hehehe
  • 29.03.08 James comes to visit! Haha my "godbro" finally found the time to come visit me after so long yay~ The day was spent watching episodes of Stargate SG1 on dvd and combining our efforts to make a delicious and filling lunch xD

Ahh...yeaaah that's about everything I did in March in a nutshell. ^^

Thien's Farewell (March 1st)

Uhh I can't remember exactly what happened anymore but basically I met up with Andy and when we got to Granville we had just missed our connecting train. The next train was in 30mins so we chatted about this and that and exchanged interesting stories about our clinical experience.

When we arrived at Cabramatta we looked around for people we knew and finally spotted them at one of the station exits. We joined them and chatted while we waited for Sai to arrive as Kim and Jennifer would come a bit later. Once Sai came we headed out to catch the bus to Thien's house but Sai and I were given a lift by one of the other girls. ^^

Fi, Simon, Cheng Dong and Steven were already there and after most people arrived we ate lunch. It was really good, there were so many yummy dishes to choose from we all just pigged out haha. Some of us started to sing karaoke, play Wii or other console games while the rest of us opted to play Ugly Dolls, Articulate!, Apples to Apples, the Bean-growing game and Zeus on the Loose. I think I did pretty well in most of the games ahahaha...


A few of us had to leave early but the majority stayed for dinner and it was pretty cool. We joined all the little tables together into one long row and sat in tiny chairs eating our delicious steamy bowls of Pho. Kinda felt like a little restaurant haha.

All in all it was a great day. =)

Weekend in Sydney 15th-17th

All I remember on Friday (err..15th of Feb?) during clinical was that I was in a really good mood and the day seemed to go by quickly. Andrew, Mei and I made origami when there was nothing to do and we mucked around a lot [omg sometimes the staff call me Mei instead of Mary -_-" It's like "Oh hey Mei, uh, Mei-ry"]. I also learnt some of the abbreviations used in the workplace and found this site with a whole list of them. Here's a random selection:
  • TRO - Time ran out
  • TFTB - Too Fat To Breathe
  • SHA - Ship His Ass (when patients refuse to be discharged).
  • RT - Room Temperature (dead)
  • PITA - Pain in the ass
  • Peek and Shriek - open a patient surgically, discover an incurable condition, and close the incision immediately
  • LOL - Little Old Lady
  • Hammer - local anesthetic
  • Code Yellow - urinary incontinence emergency
  • 45C - patient is one chromosome short of a full set (thick)
  • Thank You For This Interesting Consult - this is complete b*llsh*t
  • YMRASU - Your Medical Records Are Screwed Up
  • FLK - Funny Looking Kid
  • WWI - Walking while intoxicated (and fell over)
  • VIP - Very intoxicated person
  • VBT - Very Bad Thing
  • UPF - Un-Passed Fart (gaseous distended abdomen)
  • Urban Outdoorsman - Homeless person
  • Two beers - the number of beers every patient involved in an alcohol-related automobile accident claims to have drunk before the accident.

Anyway, my auntie picked me up after work and I hastily packed and ate a light dinner before Celine came to pick me up at 6pm. Half-way we stopped over at McDonalds and had something to eat. It was so cold outside...><

When she dropped me off it was around 10pm and I chatted with my dad and sister, organised some of my things and hopped online. My brother called and told me not to go to sleep before he got home ehehe...

Had the best sleep in AGES! Nothing beats one's own bed XD

Then the next morning my brother came in and woke me up. *sigh* Some things never change...

Met up with Angel in Parra at 11:30am and we quickly visited Lynette and Bethany at work. Unfortunately both were too busy for us to chat to, but at least we got to see them. Both looked very pro haha =) After realising we'd be late we called and smsed around to apologise. We also rang Royce who totally forgot. Gah, and he didn't even know who I was at first! -_-"


Soo Angel and I were the last to arrive at Central where Kathy, Lewis, Justina, Justina's cousin, Stephanie and William had been waiting ahaha oops... But yay! Got to see everyone again after so long keke~ Was really glad peeps still came even though I organised it kinda late and didn't have enough time to plan the outing properly...^^"

And of course, I was glad to see him. Heh. He was sporting a nice new haircut too! XD [I've missed you~ keke].


Anyway we stopped over at the Greyhound coach terminal, so I could get a ticket for Sunday, before heading off to Poporo in Market City. While deciding whether we were hungry or not someone (possibly Kathy?) noticed the CNY Performance dancers on ground level were REALLY, REALLY OLD. O.o" We couldn't tell until they looked up at us and we spotted their wrinkles and tell-tale signs of age. Bad sight. Yet kind of funny because we were wondering why on earth they were performing instead of the typical younger chinese dancing girls...


Not all of us were hungry, so while one end of the table ordered delicious looking goodies and drinks, the rest of us on the other end sat around talking and drinking cups of water. [For the record, your story was NOT scary Lewis. The only reason I lost was because you shouted so loudly and suddenly it made me jump!! Bleh -____-"]

Headed over to Galaxy World for a bit, and while the others waited in line to play Deal or No Deal, William and I had a quick go at the bball game. ^^ I think the mode we selected was "continuous", which meant that the net would move backwards or forwards depending on whether you were getting them in or not. I won, but only cos at some point William disappeared, then returned a moment later with more basketballs ahahaha... It was fun though ^^ [Were you even trying? =P ]

We returned just in time to see the people who were playing Deal or No Deal win 200 tickets. =O Then it was our go, and despite having 8 people, none of us could keep track of the cases. In the end Lewis picked a random case and started playing. Interestingly, all the cases Lewis chose to open had high amounts in them whereas the ones Kathy picked had lower values ahahaha...

We were down to the last two cases with possibilities being 2 and 3 tickets...the bank offered 2 tickets but without hesitating Lewis hit the No Deal button and the case he'd chosen was opened...

Inside was 2 tickets. -___-"

Anyway, we headed off to Greenbox Plus for two hours of karaoke plus a free drink. They didn't have enough bottles of Mount Franklin so some of us ended up with room temperature bottles. Poor Stephanie was given the bottle that had been in the display case, but luckily she managed to persuade the guy to give her a fresher one...ahaha. One of the songs wouldn't play when selected, and we spent a couple of minutes trying to work out why before we asked the guy to come check it out. He didn't know why it wasn't working either, so all we did was end up wasting our precious K time. Though, at the end, Justina managed to talk them into giving us an extra 5 mins. ^^ [Yay~ good work Justina! =D]


We met up with Jennifer and Andy who were waiting for us on the couch (looking bored and slightly tired) just outside the elevators then headed off to Capitol for sticker photos! Machine was quite crowded so we didn't get to move around a lot, and the pics were miniscule.

Still lotsa fun though. ^^v

Using Andy's money, Lewis managed to win a male turtle plushie for me and the matching female turtle plushie for William keke~ XD [omg Andy I can't believe you said "I should have centred higher." It's too early for your study-related jokes!]. It was around this time when Stephanie, Justina and her cousin had to leave, and with nothing to do for another hour and a half we decided to go K2 ehehehe...Reanna also came to join us (too bad she wasn't wearing her work clothes ahahaha). Since I'd promised, William chose the song "Perfect Interaction" and we got up and danced. Or rather, William danced and tried to show me how to dance, and I just did my best to copy whatever he was doing ahaha... [Next time go slower! I can't keep up trying to copy your movements... ^^"]


Afterwards we went to eat at Chat Thai (instead of Pancakes on the Rocks) where Lewis had kindly booked a table for 10 people. While waiting for a table I first played chopsticks with Jennifer, then "A, B, C, D" with her and Lewis. William had to leave just as we were being shown to our table. =(


I sat at the head of the table ahaha and what we ordered included Pad Siew, Green Curry, Red Curry, Emerald Duck and Fried Rice. Andy's fried rice came first, and it contained huge pieces of red chillies in it which he and Lewis decided to eat. Don't know why they did it, but it looked like utter torture, so I was like "Eat the lettuce! Eat the cucumber!" Seeing them eating the chillies reminded me of this clip on youtube. Dinner was good, a little bit on the spicy side though.

We would have played "A, B, C, D" for longer (by now it was me, Jennifer, Andy, Reanna and Lewis playing) but there were people lining up for tables and so we left for icecream -at Passionflower! I shared with Jennifer and we got a scoop of durian icecream and a scoop of lychee rose petal icecream in a cup. =) Then, somehow Jennifer decided that if Lewis ate a SCOOP of our durian icecream he wouldn't have to owe me K or 40 cents. I never agreed to those terms!! Ahh! >.<


So Lewis was trying to get some of the durian icecream while I was trying to prevent him and somehow he managed to grab Will (the turtle ehehe) off me. So Lewis was clutching Will in one hand and trying to get icecream with the other, while I was holding the icecream with one hand, and trying to get Will back with the other. Meanwhile, Jennifer just kept eating the icecream.


Now that I think about it, we must've looked like retards...O.o"


To conclude, I got Will back and Lewis didn't get any icecream muhaha... XD


While we were eating our icecream we found out that David needed help carrying some stuff from K2 to Townhall and since Andy had offered to help we all decided to lend a hand (we were going in the same direction anyway). Though in the end they only needed Andy's help. =/ Soo the rest of us walked back to Townhall just in time for Kathy and Jennifer to run for their train. The rest of us had 29mins until our train so we went into Woolies and bought stuff.


It was really funny listening to Reanna and Lewis laughing like retards the entire time, and Lewis showed us his "Finger" routine, which was basically him holding his index finger up with this expression on his face saying "Finger" in this really funny voice.


Also, while in Woolies I managed to prove the existence of Cocoa powder muhaha...


When we got back to the station we'd missed our train, but luckily we didn't have to wait long for the next one. Once we got on the train we chatted about various things and then I had a game of Slaps with Lewis. Omg..I seriously need to practise more -__-" [Stop assuming you're going first Lewis!! Gah!! @___@]


At Strathfield we parted ways, Angel went to get the train to Parra and Lewis went to get a train to Burwood. Reanna's mum was already waiting for us so we quickly hurried over and got into the car. Arriving at Bumbo's house I got to work and Reanna and TP helped me occasionally [Bumbo -remember "silently ___"? ahahaha XD] Aww and Mimi came to say 'hi' to me hehe. [Thanks Baldy for the call! ^^].


We slept late and I think I was the first to get up. Anyway, Reanna and her family were going out and they were able to give me a lift so when I finished getting ready I played with Mimi who came over to me and made these wierd sounds. O.o" TP drove us and she's not bad -omg makes me depressed. -_-"


We arrived in the city and William's train had been delayed so Reanna and her family insisted I join them while I waited. Reanna's dad is funny~ [Know what I'm talking about Bumbo?? *wink wink nudge nudge* ahahaha].


I spent the rest of the day with William in the city until I had to catch my coach. XD


[Yes, I'm leaving out a whole lot of detail. Think about it though. If I elaborated more, you peeps might start to feel lightbulb just reading it. See? I'm being so thoughtful ehehe...]

Soo I sat in seat 3D (window seat yay!) and left Sydney at approx. 4pm. The trip was pretty uneventful: I drifted in and out of sleep and the person next to me either read her book quietly or sent text messages. About an hour into our journey the driver put on The Longest Yard, which kept everyone entertained for most of the way. Surprisingly we arrived at the Jolimont Centre in Canberra at 7:30pm so I had to wait around for half an hour before my uncle came to pick me up.

And that concludes the events of my trip up to Sydney. =)

Tuesday~

Besides the whole doctor CXR and palpating patient, Tuesday was actually quite eventful.

In the morning it suddenly started POURING and Lauren (friend from work) and I shared her umbrella [Hmm...I wonder why I don't have an umbrella? *cough cough*] and walk in the rain to work from her car. My jacket got drenched and I was kinda wet and felt a little sick in the morning, but by the afternoon I was feeling better. =)

After lunch it was soo draggy. All of us Rads were walking around aimlessly, constantly checking the box for something...ANYTHING to do. We would've killed to have a whole bus-load of HSAs at that time. Lauren and I were so bored we cleaned the rooms, refilled the gowns, checked to make sure the change rooms had no used gowns in them and got more red envelopes.

We were so bored that by the time we had the last appointment for the day in screening, the doctor took one look at my face and said,
"You look terminally bored." [Ack! >.<" Since then I have resolved to be more enthusiastic whenever he's around]. Anyway that last appointment was really boring too..the doctor had to inject some local and steroids into the patient's knee and he kept putting the needle in in the wrong spot. Poor patient kept letting out short cries of pain. O.o"

Lauren gave me a lift home and I literally only had time to change before I had to head out with my Auntie and Uncle to go to the Chinese Embassy for the Chinese New Year Celebrations. We met up with the two ANU students Lauren (a different one) and the guy (he has no english name and I dunno how to spell his Chinese name >.<" ). Afterwards we split up, Auntie and Uncle went to chat with all the people they recognised and so the two ANU students and I went to exchange our coupons for dinner ^^ We all picked the one with rice, pieces of chicken and asparagus. The chicken was so chili man..

When we'd eaten our fill we browsed the stalls and amused ourselves by taking random photos. After we'd taken enough photos we watched the performances from off the side near backstage and were blinded by the lights. @_@

Us three~ Lauren insisted I try the hat on

Fool's Gold and Concrete

Yesterday my auntie returned!! We all went to pick her up at 5pm from the Jolimont Centre and she was wearing a large, warm jacket because she had just come back from Taiwan. On the other hand I was cold because the wind was quite chilly and I didn't bring many warm clothes down with me [having not properly been back in Canberra for so long I'd forgotten how cold it can get. Bleh].

Sarah came by at 6pm and we shared a bowl of wedges [it cost $9!! @___@] from Babar Cafe and Bar [yes, it was named after the cartoon elephant!] before we made our way over to the cinema to watch Fool's Gold. It was an average movie with a few laughs, a typical storyline and 'miraculous' events. By miraculous, I refer to those situations where things always seem to turn out fine, even when the odds are HIGHLY unlikely. For example in one scene, the main character HAPPENED to find an ancient sword while underwater taking apart a dynamite grid, when one of the charges is accidentally set off, sending him flying up several metres into the air and causing him to land ON HIS BACK on the roof of the neighbouring vessel. Meanwhile, he manages to throw the sword and it lands point-down on their boat right between the overly cutesy and attention-seeking girl's legs. -_-"

Some quotes [probably not exact wording but oh well~ haha]
+Gemma: *acting clueless* Oh! So what are they looking for?
+Tess: *unimpressed with her behaviour* Do you seriously not know the answer to that question?
+Gemma: *eyes widen and she makes some odd choking sounds of protest before stomping off*

+Finn: *running through a quick check*...flaps, engine, altitude -check!
+Tess: *surprised* How do you know all of this stuff?
+Finn: *grinning* Playstation 2!
+Tess: ...

+Gemma: *trying to rebel* I'm going to cut myself off from you! I don't want anything from you anymore! Except for food...and clothes and and transportation! I'm serious!
+Gemma's Dad: *calmly* Yes, and that's what scares me.

Anyway, after the movie we went to eat concrete hehehe... I chose Butternut with a chocolate custard base and it was pretty good! ^^ Sarah made her own concrete with a chocolate base, chocolate syrup and two toppings. When they were handed to us and we sat down I couldn't resist turning mine upside down and witnessing what the concrete was famed for -defying gravity. XD muhaha...

Lookie Lookie~
