Sleepover

After coming back from my clinical coaching session for which we waited for the ~20 mins and discovered, thankfully some doctors stopped by to tell us, that our tutor was actually on leave for three weeks. It had taken a half-hour by bus and another 10 min walk just to get to the place. I then dropped by coles to get ice break and some mini-muffins and then to kar & cyen's house to hang out. The hangout went on longer than intended plus i was lazy to go back home and so slept over at their place. Its nice to have someone to watch tv and sleep with. Hehe. Thanks kar & cyen. :)

Tomorrow's plan is to travel to Gold Coast and probably have a picnic at the beach. Its been a long time since i've seen the beach. Can't wait for tomorrow! I'm not sure what the plan exactly is. We're all broke from all the shopping in the past week and so I'm trying to stop spending more money if i want to have enough to last til the end of the month.

The cold weather is sure making me eat a lot.

Goats etc..

On the way back from Chinatown we stopped by Toowong for a while to drop off some books at the library and borrow some more (i went to the library whereas hana and elle window-shopped at K-Mart). Near the library, there was a small caged area filled with hay and animals. Cute small and medium-sized goats (brown, black, black & white) and sheeps (white), hens (black and brown), white ducks and even a baby brown pig. Entrance was free and it was only a dollar to buy some feed. And so, many kids just sat down with the animals. One boy even got his shirt chewed on by a brown goat. The amazing thing about the animals was their feathers/hair fluffed up due to the cold weather. And elle said there was no stink either and i was saying maybe its because they hadn't pooped a lot. Hrhr.

I then went off to indroo to meet up with others and then we all went back to the city to do some more window-shopping and to accompany the people who were going back soon and were actually shopping.

Today we're going to Garden City's Westfield mall to accompany them buy a lot of popcorn for their family back home since the one at indroo was closed. Laters.. :-)

Ice-skating

We went ice-skating on saturday. It was fun trying to balance on slippery ice using a blade which is stuck at the end of a boot. Some people fell a lot (i'm not going to name names here). Some people got it easy and skated like they've been doing it all their lives. Some people, like me, scared of falling down, took the easiest route of just hanging on to the edge for life. I did fall once, early. The thing with my skating was that i made small steps but i did manage to go to the center and skate with the flow of people. This was my second time skating after all. We skated as singles, doubles and triples. Others as a train. Awesome fun. It was freezing inside that we felt warm coming out of the place.

We had a sleepover on saturday night and the next morning hung around, watched tv and later took the bus to Indooroo to watch 'Blades of Glory' which was uber-funny. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to laugh their head off! Today, we shopped around at Stone's Corner where i bought track pants and a cool pair of bronze slippers.

I will post some more pictures at my fotopages or blog later.

Yesterday

We went to Chermside's Westfield mall yesterday for a bit of shopping. It's a massive mall and shops filled almost every corner of the building. The shops had everything you could possibly want and need and ranged from cheap, discounted places to designer wear and boutiques. Plus grocery places such as woolies AND coles. And the usual Myer, Target and K-Mart. In addition to all that, SALES everywhere!! My friends and I had walked for almost six hours without noticing. I indulged myself with an uber-hip jacket, a smart blouse for cc and some jewellery for people back home. I was also tempted to get some books from Angus & Robertson but refrained myself because i could easily borrow from the library ('but its not the same, i know..'). Maybe i'll just get one book next time i visit a bookstore. I also tasted the fabulous Greek Yoghurt there. Yummy double choc crunch yoghurt.

Today, they're going to the direct factory outlets near the Brisbane International Airport but i declined from joining as i was lazy and wanted to just chill out at home. So i've been watching tv all day, surfing the net and eating choc cake. I feel like i've got so much going on next semester. Hopefully will cope well with everything.

Congrats to Ka'Itri for passing all her exams!! :-)

Holiday!

So i'm currently in the middle of my week-long holiday before everything starts all over again next week. Hopefully i'll get some nice people in my next pbl group. I thought my last group was fantastic. I'm staying at kar and cyen's place for a bit. Hehe. At least i'm not alone during the week. Its been great so far here. And i'm kinda dreading moving back into my place cause my housemate's parents are here so its kinda awkward with them around. Oh well.

Sat: I had fun looking at stuff at ikea and eating the awesome-ly cheap food there for lunch. Plus i did buy this contraption you hang and store stuff in. Heh.
Sun: I went to the city, bought some junk food and had a movie marathon; while you were sleeping, nacho libre, deuce bigalow
Mon: Had lunch with nora and the girls. Nando's of course and did some window shopping as well.
Tues/Today: I spent the whole day at home, watching tv and eating my junk. Hrhr.

I really like just being there and doing nothing. But i know, i'll be bored soon.

Ciao, amigos! Have a great holiday! xxoo..

Exam over!

Exam was one word, hard..
