Is it winter all over again?

The weather in melb has taken a drastic change over the past few days! It has been raining, dark, gloomy and very cold! Just when i thought winter was over and spring's here! I thought flowers will start blooming and sunlight will finally peek through my windows in the morning. Oh wells, thats melbourne's weather, its always unpredictable. And it definitely looks like its gonna rain today. Yet another gloomy day!

Anyway, its the last day of the hols today! I've had one of the best mid sem breaks in such a long time! The highlights were the roadtrip up to sydney, yarra valley, philip island and dandenong.Thanks to the parents who came down and made the holiday so much more meaningful! Photos will be up later! Now its time for some serious studying! five weeks to exams and about one and 3/4 month left to going home! =) For now, i need to complete my law essay which is due tomorrow and start on my MFI assignment due on wed! 'No pain, no gain'...i shall hang in there for the next few weeks!

and my thursday so far...

And i've finally handed up my constitutional law assignment!! Not sure how its gonna turn out but just glad that its over. I'm tired, stayed up till 2 yesterday and got up at 730 to drag myself for a 900 class. But yeah it was not that bad after all. As usual classes are pretty fun cos of friends in it. There was Vella in my constitutional class and had Olivia and Harry as great company for Qm. As usual Harry (my korean friend) is heaps of fun to have in lectures. I realise that i meet him about four times a week cos we are taking two same subjects. But he's great to have in class. =) QM lectures are fun with them, we are always sitting at the same place, right smack in the middle of the lecture hall! haha. Such conscientious students we are =P haha.

Anyway, i just came back from lunch with nat lee!! I havent met her for like two weeks plus and i totally missed spending time with her! IT was awesome catching up today, just talking about everything under the sun. WE had good thai food at Ying Thai. Nat ordered roti with green curry which was not bad except that we think the roti was undercooked considering how elastic it was. And i had chicken fried rice. We shared both and we managed to finish all! Hurray for us! haha. we must have been such hungry people. After that we took a nice walk to Boost to grab our fave all berry bang. We were all set to drink a medium size but apparently there is some promotion today cause its thursday. So every large drink we buy if we top up a dollar we get another largee drink! Pretty awesome and worth it except both of us have to struggle to finish this large cup which apparently im still drinking from now. So the day has been pretty good so far=) good start for a thursday! I've another class at 415. Meeting my good friend Brittany later for class. WE decided that we are going to go crazy today since our major assignment is over. I bet she is going to make me solve puzzles that she always gets from the newspapers she subscribes. Holidays are coming but i guess i'll miss going to school to meet my friends! anyway its just a two week break and im sure ill catch up with them during the break! anyway i shall rest now before my next class!

Those kind of days...

So its the kind of day i wake up feeling absolutely tired, grouchy and sian. Its just one of those days when ur head feels heavy and yet you know you have an assigment due in two days which you so desperately wanna get it over and done with, and yet produce a good piece of work. The sky is dark outside, its one of those rainy and gloomy days. The day i decide to slip into one of my fave three quarter black pants is the day the weather decides turn cold on me. Plus i've a long day today. I end at 615.

But im not complaining cos the next two classes i've, i've great friends for company. Hopefully they'll make the day better. I realise the importance of having friends in ur classes, it really does make the day alot better or alot easier to get through. Honestly, the worst feeling is to sit in a class, and know absolutely no one and no one talks to you for the entire two hours or so. Thank goodness that hasn't happened to me at all these entire year and i cross my fingers that it will stay this way. The next two classes are management of financial institutions and dispute resolution. For mfi, i've wai ting from hong kong who is an awesome friend to have in class. We are always talking about food and places to go in HK. Of course this takes place before and after class and not during class! haha. For dispute resolution, there is my sweet girl brittany, and the guys matthew and patrick. Although dispute is pretty interesting on its own, they do make class alot more funn =)

And so its pouring outside and now im frantically looking for a brolly. an hour more to the next class! Ok back to the essay now!

Sat Night At St Kilda!

The entire day yesterday was spent slogging away at my law essay. The progess was pretty average, as usual i take a long time to think about issues and all, but i guess thats just the style i write my essays. Anyway, so the bro went to RMIT in the afternoon with tris to take a look at some boooks in the library. At night, we decided we all needed some time off, and as usual we took a long time to decide on a place and then someone threw the idea of going to st kilda and finding a random place to eat. We walked around St Kilda for quite a bit, there isn't much food there except Osaka of course (awesome jap food) which we felt was way beyond our budget for yesterday. Finally we settled for Fish and Chips. Tris and the bro ordered the family pack which was HUGE portion. In fact it was so large that we had quite alot of leftovers. I guess they didn't expect the portions to be so scary. But then again, this is aussie and the portions are always so exagerratedly large! and needless to say it was so oily! haha tris said he needs to detox the whole day today because of the obscene amount of oil we consumed yesterday!!





Anyway, the lovely sun is out today , but i can still feel the chilly wind. What a lovely day to be out there, but the law essay is at the back of my mind constantly haunting me. The bro is still sleeeping and once he's up we'll head to the supermart to stock up. He requested i cook rice with soup tonight. I guess our dishes will be sze chuan vegetable soup, chicken and brocolli (our all time favourite). I do miss eating home food, and rice with dishes. haah i cant believe im actually talking about the food i cook! Oh wells, lets hope it all turns out right tonight! =)

the first half of the semester is ending...

Yet another week has passed! thats the end of week 7!! my goodness, its prettty amazing how time really flies! so im done with two mid sems, got back the results, and all i can say is im pretty happy with it =) but for now, ive to slog away at my law essay, or rather High Court SUbmission!! and after that its a two week break! And i've about three assignments due after that! haha. i guess uni life is like that, work is never ending! But then again, im not complaining, i guess thats just the pains that one has to go through to get a degree!

on a totally different note, it was been pretty sunny the past few days but somehow the weather is still pretty cool! Not Hot and Humid like the weather back home! I do prefer cold weather to hot weather anytime!! anyways its back to the books, hope everyone is doing good back home! =)

Friday at Chadstone =)

On friday, we decided to drive down to Chadstone for lunch and a bit of relaxation. It was good, maybe cos its been a long time since we've gone to a shopping centre. Chadstone is HUGE and we practically walked non-stop and yet we couldnt cover the entire shopping centre. Lunch at some jap place wasnt good, but the place was great. i do love chadstone, i shall make that my shopping haven in the future!

ok short post for now... =)

Pics on the way and at chadstone.
