It's 4.44 am.

I'm typing in the dark, trying to stay awake to wake him up to continue working on his stuff. He tried to pull and all nighter but was slowly falling sick. I'm supposed to make sure he only sleeps for half an hour and make sure he gets up and continue doing. I'm going home tomorrow. I'm so sad. We don't even have time for each other on my so called 'last day' here. I know technically it's not like we'll never meet but still.

Tomorrow I need to go pick up some stuffs from Vic Market. And then Priceline. And maybe Zuza. He has class almost half the day. The only times we'll probably get to see each other are before his class, after his class which is when we should be on the way to the airport, and also most probably eating McD in the airport while waiting for my time to leave.

Emo, emo.

Ok let me go continue checking out what are my studying options here in Melbourne. I cannot take this any longer.

I don't wanna go home :'(

No matter how many times I do this, it's still hard :'( This whole meeting again and parting again thing.

Breakfast yesterday. Cheese Omelette and Italian Herbs Potatoes, and Hazelnut Latte.

This was a week back.

Bought this Philosphy Cinnamon Buns shampoo/shower gel/bubble bath cos it smelled like the most divine thing everrrr. If you love the smell of cinnamon buns, cinnamon or Cinnabon (the shop which sells cinnamon buns), you'll absolutely love this.

Forgot to pack my perfume with me so in the duty free shop, I saw this (duty free of course) and bought it without thinking cos I've been meaning to get it. Smells like pineapple and I absolutely adore it.

This is by now my favourite lipbalm to use.

And my favourite nail colour, the one on the right.

Ok bye! Thanks for reading people.

First week here in Melbourne

Ok time for some update.

Watched Cats the Musical. I'll talk more about it in another post.

What's Melbourne without eating my favourite Cheese and Potato Pancake at the Pancake Parlour, my favourite place to eat at?

 Lalala that's me.

Mapo Tofu (his favourite), vege and ABC soup (his new favourite haha).

At Koko Black. We had the Iced Chocolate Mocha, which was ok, and a new dessert in the menu for fall - which was the reason we were at Koko Black - the Chocolate Moelleux. It's almost similar to chocolate lava cake - both have runny hearts - except that lava cake is usually flourless and a chocolate moelleux is a rich chocolate brownie-like muffin with a runny heart. As for the runny 'interior', I'm not entirely sure if it's made of uncooked cake batter, or melted chocolate cos it tasted like the former. Either way, it was still good. The best part of the moelleux was the brownie-like muffin. So rich and so soft, it melts in the mouth. And that pinky orange thing, I dunno what it's called. I know it's made of raspberry and it's foamy.

Don Don Box at Don Don! For only AUD 8++ you get teriyaki chicken, sukiyaki (beef), salad and half a kiwi! It's super filling.

Tried making pineapple fried rice today. Didn't realize there's no curry powder in the apartment so I had to innovate a little. Turned out not too bad but not what I expected it to taste like. I think it could have been better.

He loved it though =D

Ok that's all. Time to sleep it's 4am now.

Blue Sparkle

So yesterday, we watched The Bounty Hunter which was ok. Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston are in it, can't go wrong with that. I found a Lush store! I've always wondered what's it and all that hype about. Went in yesterday but didn't buy anything, still don't know what's all the hype about. I might pay a second visit and buy something to try. Today was a lazy day. Stayed home through the day by the computer. Will be meeting Maggie in a while.

❤

Did my nails yesterday. Clap for my effort la you think very ezi ah?

It's not showing clearly (trust me the real thing looks so much nicer *proud) but the base is a cobalt blue (LOVE IT) and there's glitter at the tip faded into the blue, sorta like a gradient. I wanted to do glitter french tip but cos my nails are so short it won't look nice at all so I went with the gradient effect. Wk said it looks like shimmering blue sea! I like that description =)

Mmm loving the sparkles and the edgy cobalt blue =)

Just to keep this blog more alive haha

Today I went to dad's shop. Boring. But good thing is there's a broadband so I can bring my laptop over and go online when I'm bored =) It was my dad's birthday. We had Japanese buffet to celebrate it. Gorged lots of fresh oysters, salmon and tuna belly. Mmm. I hope my tummy will be fine tomorrow. On the way back, my grandmother spotted this crazy woman in the car right in front of ours who was banging her head crazily like she's dancing to some crazy music. She had all the actions along with her hands, just like how people dance in clubs to fast music. I laughed so hard cos it looked so freaking stupid ok. My brother said she probably took ecstasy pills or something. Ok bed time.

Anyone still reading? Lol

I used to feel like blogging every single day, sometimes every few hours in a day. Now, I somehow cannot find the mood to blog anymore. Not that there's nothing going on with my life but strangely I don't see the point/need to blog about them anymore. Is this a sign of aging? T__T

I obviously tweet more than I blog (so follow me! =]), cos twitter is just so much easier. Whenever I come online, my browser consists of only a few tabs: Gmail, Hotmail, Twitter - these are the compulsary ones wtf. Then sometimes, if not, most of the time, I'll have Youtube opened. Oh and of course, Skype and MSN with Wk whenever he's around.

Ok just a couple of updates. I'll be flying to Melbourne next Tuesday for about 2 weeks. I brought forward the trip a lot earlier this year cos I don't want to be missing in action once again when my music students' exams are near. Since I'm not in Uni anymore, I decided that going now is the best option. At least when I'm back, I still have plenty of time to work with my students for their exams. At least I won't feel as guilty.

I'll also be going there again this December with Wk's family. Main reason is to attend his graduation - he'll be graduating with a Masters of Architecture! Yes I'm damn proud of him =) And then we'll be going to Gold Coast for a few days before returning to Malaysia. I've even informed all the music centres of my one month's leave this December. It's gonna be fun =)

Ok what else...

Oh and final-freaking-ly, my dad asked me to go help him out in one of his shops. Paid one of course, dad knows me too well lol. I know he cannot stand me doing nothing for so long already. It's not that I can say no anyway, he's my dad and I know he needs someone to help him out since one of his assistants just left. I'll be going there tomorrow. Oh godddd no more waking up at 11am T___T 

And if you're wondering what's gonna happen to my practice plans, I think it's gonna be screwed.

Oh and I was soooo hoping I can attend Lady Gaga's concert in Melbourne cos she'll be there when I'm there!!! But too bad T___T no chance. But I'll most probably catch either Cats or Mamma Mia the musical when I'm there next week =)

Ok time to sleep. Thanks for reading people.

Thank you, my inspirations and motivations.

Here's to say a huge thanks to everyone who commented, and even personally sent me messages in Facebook about this post.

When I wrote that long, whiny and rambly post, I've never expected people to actually read through it and be interested in what I have to say cos I'm that kinda person who wouldn't really care about long and rambly blog posts unless it's written by someone I personally know, someone dear, or just close friends. What shocked me was one of the people who read and thought my situation mattered, was a lecturer in Uni who I have a lot of respect for. 

Mind you, there are a lot of lecturers in a university and there are ONLY a few whom I think deserve to be respected. And when I say I respect them it's not because they gave me an A ok? I respect them for their knowledge, enthusiasm, passion, dedication, transparency and most importantly, impartialness. And all these quality have to come TOGETHER to deserve my respect. I especially hate lecturers who're biased. And sometimes, old AND gay. I'm saying this because I've had enough of crappy experiences with old and gay lecturers.

Sorry I digressed. So that lecturer sent me a message in Facebook telling me he read my entry and that he understood and wrote lots of nice things to support me. Honestly, his message alone was enough to make my frustration flip 180.

Thank you all for you wise and lovely words of understanding, encouragement and support. You all have no idea how reading them just made my day. It inspired and motivated me to work even harder each day.

I'm still not sure if it's for the Master studies that I've been planning to do all these while, or is it just for myself. Either ways, I'm gambling now and I can only do my best. I would rather take a shabby boat which takes a longer journey to a destination that I want to reach, than taking a safer boat which goes to somewhere I don't want to be.

Ok time to practise. 

PS I've been reading Eat, Love, Pray for a while now. Oh fyi, I read very very slowly cos I only read at night, when I feel like it. I'm currently at 'Eat' and I have reached a part where I'm feeling inspired already and it's not even half of the book yet =) Hope it'll get better as it goes on.
