a cold, windy and wet day

Now i'm sitting at my desk, wearing my thick purple jumper, track pants and covering myself with a blanket. It's such a cold cold night tonight. It's currently 9 degrees celsius and somehow today it just seems exceptionally cold. I'm boiling water now to make a hot drink for the bro and myself. I didnt even open the sliding doors today cos i think it will get alot colder then, and i had rather try and retain the heat inside my home instead. I can't believe the weekend is ending. Time is passing a bit too quickly! Tomorrow will be week 8 of school already! 5 more weeks of school and one and a half weeks to handing up my property essay! I've been trying to slog and do it over the weekend. The only consolation is i've finally started writing, but sometimes its just so hard to put all ur points and plan into words. Oh well, i pray that the Lord will give me wisdom and determination to do my property essay.


On a different note, I'm saddened by the news that Uncle Kum Seng passed away last night. But on the other hand, i know that he is now safely in God's hands and that he does not have to suffer all that pain anymore. I'm really glad that he converted into a Christian a few weeks ago. It's truly a miracle and indeed a testimony of God's greatness and God's timing. I take consolation now that he is back home with the Lord. I will always remember him as an extremely nice, soft spoken and good natured uncle that always put others before himself. I remember his last words to the bro and i when he talked to us on the phone the other time 'study hard and take care'. I can't believe he's gone already, but all i know is that he is in a better place now and i should be happy for him. And one thing is for sure, he will never ever be forgotten and that memories i had of him are all happily stored in my head. Goodbye Uncle Kum Seng, thanks for being such a blessing in my life and everybody's life, you will never ever be forgotten =)

Victoria set for cold, wet week

That is the title of one of The Age newspaper's article. Okay, i must remember the brolly and to wear thicker the next few days. Ironically, its not cold at all today! Its like 22 degrees now! How strange. The article says:

"Get out your winter woolies - Victoria is in for a cold, wet and perhaps even wild weekend."

"A series of fronts moving across south-eastern Australia over the next four to seven days is predicted to bring rain, hail and even snow to our tinder-dry state."

haha. how exciting they make it sound but usually its really not tt eventful! But we'll see!!!

7th week of school!

I'm in the midst of my seventh week at school for this semester! Time does pass pretty quickly, another 5 more weeks and the semester is over. So this week is the first week back after the easter holidays. Biggest problem that the bro and i face? Waking up early! haha. After all, we were used to waking up late over the holidays and waking up at 730 was quite a challenge, especially on monday. So its the 7th of week, which means work load is getting heavier. I'm trying to catch up with readings, do my essay, and trying to absorb and remember all the important principles in each case. It just isn't getting any easier. It's the busy busy part of the semester. Anyway, i cooked last night, quite a sumptuous meal. I cooked carrot and potato soup, and tried to cook fried beef with kailan (although in this case its chye sim), brocolli and egg omelette. I think i succeeded since the bro said it was good! =) While eating that, we watched a jet li movie, once upon a time in china III. We've officially completed the trilogy. The three parts were good and enjoyable. This friday i think we are going to play soccer again! That's after taking a break for three weeks. Maybe its time to do some exercise since the last time i actually exercised was also three weeks ago! haha. Anyway, i'll post two pictures of the bro eating my food, one is tomato spaghetti and the other is the meal that we had last night! Okays, back to work!

why is timing running so quickly?

Its friday alreadyyy!!! Why is time running so quickly? Its just pure scary when i think about how many days of my hols have already passed. All i've been looking at the past few days were just body parts material and more body parts material. I'm pretty sick of it already, so much so that last night i had this throbbing headache. I've decided to take a break from my property essay and do something else, like criminal law. But three more weeks to handing up my prop essay and im still planning and wondering what is the best way to write my essay. I've decided that i should just start writing soon and edit along the way.

Three more days left of the easter break and then its another 6 weeks of school, exams and then the semester is over. Time is moving on a little too quickly for my liking. Okays, i need to read my criminal law notes now. Will update soon.

THE "HOLIDAY"

So this week is supposedly easter break, but other than the privilege of sleeping a couple of hours more, this week is more like catching up on work week. I've been trying to read all the property essay material the past few days, and its really alot, since i went to the lib the other day and photocopied quite a bit. I've been reading so much about property law in body parts the past few days that i can only say im confused! This is definitely not an easy area of the law, and i dont even know why i chose that topic. Maybe its out of interest but once i've started, there is no turning back. I need to formulate my argument soon! ah! This is stressful! =( I pray that God will guide me throughout this essay! 3 and a half weeks more to handing it up. It may seem like quite alot of time but trusts me it isnt at all! I've 3 other subjects to juggle with at the same time. Okay, i need determination and strength to persevere!!!

Okay, on a better note, the bro and i are going to eat 'the lot' at crown tonight. That is our new steak sandwich place. We decided that we should eat somewhere different since its the holiday. But since we arent doing anything exciting this hols, the only excitement we can find is to eat good food. Hopefully the place doesnt fail us tonight. Okay, back to more reading!!! INSPIRATION INSPIRATION WHERE ARE YOU?!?

Easter Holiday

The one week easter break has officially started. But once again, mid semester breaks are never really a break. I've loads of work to catch up on, and a property essay which is due in a month's time! Sigh. Oh wells, but at least its good to have a one week break, to catch up on much needed sleep, and to gear myself up for the second half of the semester. Anyway, last night the bro and i had quite an eventful night. We went for dinner at some greek place. It was quite good, but a bit too oily, so we got full very quickly after eating just a bit. After that, we went for dessert at St Churros, where we drank hot chocolate, some malt ice drink and ate churros with chocolate dipping. Chocolate never ever fails to make people happy and i would have enjoyed it more if i wasnt so full from the greek dinner we had before that. We went to catch a movie after that. We watched the new jackie chan show, called Shinjuku Incident. It was a surprisingly good show. Maybe i was impressed because i went in with low expectations since the bro said he thinks its probably more drama than action. Thats partly true but overall i thought the storyline was pretty interesting. And one good thing about watching movies here is that the theatre seats here are way more comfortable than in Singapore. So last night was a good night, with good entertainment and good food. I guess this combination never fails to make me a happy girl. It was a much needed fun night, since both of us were slogging away at our assignment for the past few weeks, and its truly exhausting.

Today is good friday, which means alot of places are closed. I guess we just have to source for food later. Anyway, this week is going to catching up on work time! This is the only time where i can try and keep up with the readings which are by the way --ALOT! haha. anyways, HAPPY GOOD FRIDAYYY to everyone!!

Daylight saving is over!

Melbourne is currently TWO hours ahead of singapore, no longer three.
