Hi bloggie! hahahaha, being one month i came to Newcastle.. Tt's really fast. and i have more or less settled down and trying to get used to the momentum of studying, living and adapting this foreign land.
my blog was on a long hiatus and it should be back into blogging action. i hope (cross fingers)
so to summaries the period of absence, exams was underway, as it will be my last exam taking under PSB academy and because the underlying deadline of the end of the exam would mean arrangement to come over to Newcastle and the numerous farewell dinners i subsequently attended.
Hong Kong
after the exams, i flew to the Pearl of the Orient = Hong Kong. A memorable trip for me, with my childhood favourites of disney characters enchanting the place and atmosphere and not to mention the familar sights and scene that is frequently shown in the Hong Kong Drama i love. and not long after, i went to bintan for a short getaway =)
and i worked for the government once again, under Media Development Authority (MDA) and the work was enjoyable, and enriching. and working under Mdm Tan made the work even more enjoyable =) and was thankful for the job, to keep me and my pocket occupied while i took a break before coming to Au.
1E5 10 years class gathering
One of the major highlights of 2009 definitely have to be the class gathering that took place in feb. Thankful for the commitee that worked with me and definitely the attendance of those who attended on short notice. it was great to see the class that grew up together! times change, people change, but the bond will never change.
Sushi with UON classmates
and the little imps at PSB (and not so little ones [*coughs* eugene *coughs*]) gave me a farewell. was supposed to have it jointly with my classmate cum housemate TRIANNA CHEW, but she flew as aeroplane, as usual. lol. this bunch of classmates made Uni in PSB more lively than it would otherwise turn out.
and my poly classmates gather together for a catching up chalet session at East Coast Park. Unfortunately, there is no photos to be displayed here, coz i am still patiently waiting for DeDe to post them somewhere =) the meetup was great and i missed everyone, esp my proj partner, Gracia, who always went missing. Dene, who is the first among us to get a degree and went to Queensland the other time, gave me lots of advice about Au. Esp the clubbing part =.=|||
Rayne and Me
Rayne Lee, probably is one of the few people who attended the numerous farewell gathering. haha.. well, she is my Bestie Best afterall.. but a heartless one. called her last night, to ensure she is still breathing. hahaha. missed the times we chat on the phone, and this bugger rarely uses MSN.
Me; being 2 weeks since i got internet, and i have nv see u online
R: aiya, i will online de
Me: 2 weeks will turn into 1 month, which will turn into 6 months and then a year, and i am back.
R: ...
hahaha.. ok moving on (Rayne, if u are reading this, u know wat u need to do.)
WineHut
and one of my fav place was visited for my farewell, and it is WineHut. I love this place. Jas was there to help us with the wine, and it was Karen's first visit. hahaha.. hope she liked it too! =) the evening was wonderful, with, Jas, Kel, Siang and me chilling at Yello Jello Bar after the wine. Kel Daddy loses too much in the finger guessing game, that he goes a lil tipsy (Opps!) lol. Kel and Siang is also the another 2 who attend so many farewell gathering with me. hahaha. as if they are coming along with me.
Manchester United Cafe Bar
like i said, Siang and Kel attend so many gathering. the gathering with Wu Meiyi and Jen was at the cafe that uses the World Greatest Club's Name = Manchester United. Lol. Love the ambience and the fact that Manchester United is the LOGO of the place! lol. thank u gals for meeting me before i fly.
Dinner with the Bosses
one of my last gathering was with my various bosses at GV. lol. Vanny, Kristin, Amber, Christina Jiang and Jeslyn ( who we just went to Vivo to take photo with her). lol. different boss, different Era, common bond. =D thank u all for attending!
University of Newcastle.
and when i flew to Newcastle, this is the reason why. where i have to undertake 5 modules this sem =( the campus is like a school in the forest. hahaha. something i thot was quite nice.
and with school, these are unavoidable.
Housemates with Joanna!
the pace at Australia is slow, compared to Singapore, and the activities to do at night is so limited, that most of the days we spend it at home. but some nights, we will be out, to the beach or the harbour. and the drinks are cheap but don't worry people, i know i am here to study, not drink!
Australian Reptile Park
and just last week, Aamir drove us to the reptile park, that Chubby got kissed by a Gecko and have a snake around her shoulder. the reptile park visit was great! i see Taz Devils and Koala and i like how Mike the presenter when he present the various shows and animals.
nando's
after the reptile park, we went to Nando's and grab our favourite Peri Peri Grilled Chicken and a group photo of my housemates and me.
kk, a long enough post!
agu
i got a mailer! and i was so elated!
