haven been updating for quite some time and many are starting to complain. ha! sorry abt that. i've forgotten those tt were way back, so i'll just update you guys on things that i can remember. so be prepared for a really LONG post.a wk or 2 before the mid-sem break was qian zi's 21st. so aft our lessons, we went to have dinner at Verve. a modern italian restaurant. you might find it familiar, cos when chai and bernadette were here, we ate there too. ha! we only had a simple dinner cos there's still sch the nxt day.  click here for all the photosa few days later was hui ying's 20th. we had dinner at a korean restaurant, then we headed to their hse for part2 of the party. the purpose of part2 was to get her drunk. ha! of cos, in between, we tried getting each other drunk too. and can see from the pics below that many of us are turning pretty red, especially me. ha!       click here for all the photosthen the mid-sem break started! one of the plans was to go to Australia Zoo! well. it's not that bad, pretty fun. managed to rush to almost all the shows. but the tiring thing is that the journey from Brisbane to Australia Zoo is almost 2hrs!! well, tts if you're taking the train. but if you're driving, i guess it only takes an hr or so.            click here for all the photosthen came another friend's birthday. 24th birthday if i didn't remember it wrongly. had chinese food for a change this time round. but it was pretty far away, and my friends and i took the birthday dude's car there. but before the dinner, we had to lure him out of the hse and delay him for some time before going to the restaurant cos some other friends wanted to decorate their house for the 2nd part of the party. there wasn't as much drinking though, but still very fun!  60%!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaam seng!!   the next plan for the mid-sem break is whale-watching! we've been talking abt it for ages and we finally get to go!! it was magnificent!! but there weren't as many whales as i've expected. probably because their migration is almost over. so i guess we can go again next year during the mid of winter where many of them will be migrating together with dolphins too! but here's a warning to those that have sea-sickness. get ready to puke like crazy. HA! cos the boat actually shakes pretty badly and many ppl on the boat are puking. of cos, im NOT one of them. =)            \  anyway, aft whale-watching, we went to a friend's place for BBQ. BBQ here is diff. no charcoal needed. haa! they're using something like teppanyaki style.      teochew style!! HA!! click herefor all the photosa few days later was the last of our mid-sem plan, that is to go to Wet&Wild!! wohoo!! it's actually pretty fun!! but we spent quite a bit of our time just to queue. that's probably why we didn't get to take all the rides available. but it was really fun! and one advice to people planning to go - go with even numbers! luckily there were 8 of us, which is a pretty good num. cos the rides were either for 2 or 4. i guess we'll be going again to make sure we've played everything there.           dinner was at a korean bbq restaurant. cos we were there pretty late, so we were worried that there woudn't be food left, we took quite a bit of food and we couldn't really finish!! the waitresses kept asking us if we're able to finish the food cos they really do charge for wasting!! gosh. we went thru alot of finish everything. part of the plan was to stuff the mouth with alot of food and puke it all out in the toilet. HA!this is pretty much what happened. and how i spent my 1wk break. the days just passed like that!! omg. and in 1mth, i'll be having my finals!! URGHHHH!!!! but then again, it means i'll be going home!! heh. but that's something bothering me. that is, house hunting!! yea. im most probably moving out of my current place and stay with my friends next sem, but we haven found any suitable house yet! grrrr... we'll see how it goes then.
