Barely a month away and I've lost my usual routine here. No more daily moisturising after shower, no more breakfast in the morning, no more many things. I must get the hang of things soon!

Heard news that Brent's coming down to sunny Singapore (or should I say rainy since it's raining season) in December, probably around Christmas so hopefully I'd be back then. I'm torn between spending Christmas here with Amanda if she hasn't done her convocation by then or going back to bring one of my very few friends around my area. Then again, I'd probably be exploring with him and his friends as proven by my last trip, 3-4 months in Aussie is enough to mess my up whole 'routine'. Pray I don't get lost end year.

Let's see. I've caught Mama Mia and The Forbidden Kingdom since I came back and I love the cinemas here since it's perpetually empty =D. Played at the arcade and took neo-prints with amanda as well and do I love the neo-prints here or what. IT'S IN ENGLISH!!! Why do we have japanese machines when most of us don't understand what's going on. Of course this is with exceptions to the young teenages who seem to have taken so many neo-prints in their short lives that they can do it with their eyes closed. Hmmm...

Still the machine here's way better since you can choose pearl effect for your skin. A little tanned yet flawlessly bright. Sweet. You can also add in other photos in the one you're decorating so I got like 4 photos in that one photo, if you know what I mean. I shall post up the photos the next time coz I've been busy settling my stuff I haven't scanned it in yet.

I forgot how heavy groceries used to be and $50 worth is enough to kill me for the walk from the busstop to home. Apparently they do delivery service for $12 on mon, thurs and fri. Shall try to psyco valancy so that we don't have to carry our groceries =p

Feeling particularly 'chatty' today. Mostly because there's no one to chat with me online these few days and I was too lazy to walk to amanda's for dinner which resulted in me eating maggie mee again. 6 packs definately isn't alot at the rate I'm eating.

Oh yea, and the arcade, it's huge man. Seriously the biggest timezone but they don't have those street fighter etc type of games. Lots of basket ball, there's a mini bumper car (which seems really popular here in aussie), deal or no deal, shooting games etc. Was playing this particular exciting shooting game and some guys scared us by screaming suddenly in the midst of the game. Didn't help that it was pretty much a 'box'. Played lots of basket ball and we've found ways to 'cheat' to earn more token. i.e. play the children basket ball. Lol. We can just reach in and drop the ball into the basket. Then again, the normal ones seems rather okay and surprisingly I did manage to get quite a few shots in. I totally sucked the last time I tried playing and I got no where near the board so maybe I haven't lost my touch. heh.

Shan't bore you guys any more. Take care and please tag so I know you're alive =p

So I'm back from the little sunny island and back to the dark cold nights of Gold Coast.

I guess it happened around last week where I met serene and her friend for dinner at vivo. It was rather fun. Met yasin, aw, boon, ivan, weiqi and kaiwei on friday and thanks to dearest daddy, I got to spend more time with them whilst he watch The Dark Knight with mummy. Had my advanced birthday celebration on sat and it was perfect. I loved the place and the food and definately the company. Many thanks to my relatives and friends who turned up and I hope they had fun. Birthday cake was childish, I know but I love it so there =p. Watch The Dark Knight on tues with favourite mentis aaron, charles and xiao hui. It was rather fun, couple seats were comfortable and the movie wasn't as bad as I thought. Felt that it was a little too draggy but nonetheless good. Had fun teasing aaron who insisted on staying through the credits and of course I had to head home to pack.

Made a new pair of specs and together with my new clothes, it was definately not my usual style. Lets hope changes are for the better just like my eye sight going down. May I not need to wear specs one day haha.

Rather exciting trip heading back with amanda and we were greeted by cold and rainy brisbane. After what seem forever, we reached home and it feels oh-so-familiar again.

Did random stuff since we came back like going to the movies, to my friend's place to sing karaoke (how cool is that to have a ktv set in your own home), played with her flatmate's guinea pig which made me miss my babies, went to brisbane and it was a really exciting ride since the tracks were closed and we had buses to bring us to the nearest available station. It was coordinated rather well I must say.

School's starting tomorrow and I'm not looking forward to it lol. Why no back to school dinner this time round?

I miss you guys back in sunny Singapore. Meet ups when I'm back k?

Busy week, met up with many friends, Gerard & Aisha's wedding on Friday. Congrates. Met many familiar faces. Made me wish I were back there with everyone again, I guess I could try working part time end year if they want me.

Met Teddy, Kai Wei, Yasin & Ivan at Arab street after dinner. It was fun catching up with everyone again. I miss you guys loads. You have no idea how much I look forward to meeting you guys again. You guys are just a special group of friends.

Leg's full of blister. So not used to heels.

Date me out ppl, I want to go sing k & sentosa!

Been back for a week and just so busy meeting up with friends and family. Finally met up with serene for tea; ting, pam and janet for dinner yesterday. Let's go sing k soon!

Then again I went K on monday with amanda, beavan, raymond/joseph, eve and vincent. It was fun but I was so tired I ended up stoning towards the last hour. Lunch at Tonkichi with amanda was good. I so miss the food there. Ex-colleagues still recognised me so that was good =p

Got a nice dress yesterday, tho I feel it's kinda pricey but it's nice and I wont get a chance to find such clothes in aussie.

I don't dare to get used to sg too much coz I'm worried I can't adapt back when I head back for studies. I mean the weather for one is so different and I've to learn to be independent again. I can't go out as and when I like with the various groups of friends or just hang around. 1.5 more years!

Didn't do as well as I expected, shall buck up next semester especially since I only have 2 days week. Shall find a job though.

Kinda lazy to blog now. Cya

Results are stated to be out 7th July. It is 7th July already so where are my results???? Don't give me the 'technically they have till 2359 to publish the results'. That's the type of excuse I'd give to get out of doing my work. bleagh.

Met up with so many ex colleagues yesterday. It was fun! Aisha looked so pretty, I wish I had pretty eyes like her =p.

Met up with my relatives last night. The youngest was so cute, she actually let me carry her and she spoke so eloquently for a 5 year old. sweet =D She's just so adorable.

Party's set on 19 July. Shall go early for a swim and maybe some pool. Ang bow's would be good, I promise it'll go for a good cause - "Let Estee go backpacking at the end of the year cause" haha. But of course it'll be good if my wishlist could be fulfilled. No obligations tho, seriously.

Apparently it's youth day today, so plans to go Sentosa has been postponed. You know, it would have been better if you like told me yesterday so I won't need to wake up so early today. lol

Meeting Amanda later and going k this evening. Can't wait =D

well i'm back, just kinda lazy to blog. My body's still getting used to the weather and the time difference.

It was quite an experience getting on the plane and coming back on my own. I think i did a rather good job haha. And of course, if i had a dollar for each time a person thinks i'm japanese, i'd be rich by now. Apparently i look jap/korean/mixed blood to the custom officer in aussie.

i'm still getting used to home. even my room and bed feels weird. my parents thinks it's just me. but apparently thea and thumb had the same thoughts during their last visit. i guess you need to experience it to know how it feels.

anyway kinda sleepy now. shall update soon.
