been sometimes to update my blog. Recently been quite busy with my assignments. Yea, i m currently on my 3rd week of semester, but this week, get to have 4 days public holidays. 21/3, Good Friday ma...then Sun n Mon are Easter Day. What a easter day, everywhere is close. So no second choice, home is the oni place can be. ANyway, i spent a great nite ytd.

I found a second home! Been asking by Valerie-housemate to join her to the buddhist lodge for some times d. However, dint able to make it. Finally, i spare out my nite ytd, n went to her lodge fren's house and had dinner with them. THey are really nice n lovely peoples. Just like ppl in my buddhist lodge back in Msia. its alwiz nice and comfortable to be with these ppl, they give their full love n concern to other without asking any return.Its my first meeting with them. They give me a very good impression, and i guess i will be going again nextime. They cooked us Vegetarian dinner and after dinner, they prepared some chinese teas for us. Lasnite we brewed 4 teas.We brewed tea but chit chating about pregnancy and labouring..funny n weird huh? Yea. cz there is a pregnant woman there, n she is giving birth 2 weeks later..so , the whole nite was surrounded by Child+Labour's topic. kind of disgusting n scary when heard they talk bout. but, few experienced ladies there seem very happy n enjoyed when talking bout the process.Maybe tats wat we said, oni mum will understand the feeling. oh ya, just get to know ways of labouring in aus is kind of strange n diff from our country. THey even have water birth, toilet birth, shower birth here..its kind of odd...baby wont die in water meh? haha...tats a stupid ques..baby been surviving in water for the past 9 months, how can they die just for seconds in the water? Its oni when they started breathing thru nose. anyway, topic off.

here some pic, on 13th march 2008. his birthday. i organized a surprise dinner for him with few of my housemates n ex housemates.

But soon..2 weeks more will have first assignment in every subjects to due...n there will be 3 assignments to be done by end of March.. Gosh.. taking Forensic Psych, Issues in Criminal n Justice, Health Psych, n chosen Spanish s my elective subject. The 3 Psych papers sound pretty hard, n they are. Dono why they come out with these subject... Forensic n Criminal Justice should leave them to the Politician or the Law students to study...what to do with Psychology? hmm... but i will answer this when it come to the end of this sem, hopefully. hopefully i know what im studying in the coming days.

Been away from blog for like 3 weeks..Reason 1: Worked during the past 2 weeks. Reason 2: Away for Brisbane trip for the last week. Reason 3: I just move to a new place, currently the house has no internet to access. Lets began my Diary from 20th Feb 2008, which was my 3rd visit to Brisbane..

Wednesday, 20th Feb 2008, As planned, me, mp, jacob n joseph, we had our vacation at Brisbane. We planne the whole trip by ourselves or i shod say, I did all the planning.. Those 3 just followed. We had a 5 days vacation at Brisbane, and we were staying at my cousin+aunty which i have longtime never seen them, Aunty Loraine and Renee. I only met this Aunty once which was during my visit to Brisbane when i was 5years old, attended Renee's wedding..This aunty is a local, which mean an Australian Ah mo. My counsins Renee, Aaron n Nathan are half chinese + Ah Mo..

First day, i met my niece-Laila(Cousin-Aaron's daughter)at home, as she just finished her class and went back to her grandma's house.The very first n lastime i saw her was 5 years ago, when my second visit to Brisbane (attended sis's graduation).She was jus 3 years old tat time n my nephew-Naoh was just 1yrs old tat time. So since she was swimming, i swam with her tat day. Never really get to swim after i get here, n this consider s my first swim in the pool. exhausted.
First nite, i went to Nathan's bar n we had a quick dinner with him. Emm met him 7yrs ago, when he went Msia to find a job. He has always like to travel n person who cant really settle down. He used to work as bartender at the cruise, worked in Uk n etc. Finaly he is back to Brisbane n now he has a Gf! Business running well,n he is also planning to have a second bar soon.

21st Feb 2008, Thurs, We spent our whole day at DreamWorld. Those 3 cant wait other day for the theme park, so just make it this day to DreamWorld. Gosh, its a teribly hot day, 40'c..What would i comment on Dreamworld? emm .. quite disappointing, its not s fun s i expected. ALwiz tot the among all the Worlds, this wil be the biggest n greatest. BUt i don see anything special there. Besides 6 thrils Rides that currently cant get in Msia.. Among all the rides, i prefered the tower of terror. this ride with the speed of 140kph, get u strait up to the top like 38 storeys high.. in just 10 seconds (we actualy counted).. fast til u cant realize the speed. besides that, nothing much i would advise.

22nd Feb 2008, Fri, spending our whole day at Toowong, sumore around UQ St Lucia campus. Met up with my another uncle, to have lunch with him n get $$$...haha.. Went to St Lucia campus to visit YiYee..my Dear fren..she is now studyin in UQ.. UQ is still that huge...Just walking in the campus from one end to another will take u like 20mins..more or less...so tiring.. but its a nice Uni..My sis was graduated from the same Uni. Thinking of getting my Master there...still deciding..evening we went the City, Queen St mall...just like rundle mall..nothing special.. beside having more choices of restaurant compared to Rundle mall..haha..

23rd Feb 2008, Sat, we were back to Gold Coast.. this time its Sea World.. n i think its the best park i have been.. Dreamworld..Movieworld..Wet n Wild(haven been there)..Sea World..n there is another new world at dreamworld which is the WhiteWater, i bet its just like Wet n Wild. Sea World, as the name stated... Sea...get to see lots Sea animals n aquariums there..n lots of Watersport perfomances lo.. they also gt those rides in the sea world..so u cant watch, n play... so i think its worthy la..Unfortunately, its another sunny n hot day..40+'c in Brisbane..so after tat day, i bcm O Lang now...Tanned..haiz..

24th Feb 2008, Sun, Its another shopping day. We went to Harbour Town. As we know, Brisbane has the biggest Harbour town in Australia..there got lots factory outlets, its the best bargain place to get those branded stuff like ripcurls, billabong, addidas, nike, esprit etc..stil i don find them are cheap...ya, maybe for the locals but not for us Msian- try to convert, stil every dollar gt to *3.. but stil, i gt somethings, not much..as almost out of budget d..
here come the last nite, Its Renee's bday soon on 27th Feb..so we decided to cele earlier with her. so got her a bday cake, n brought it over to Aaron's house.

25th feb 2008, finally i m back to adelaide!

who care.
