Dfo Jindalee

shopping is finally alive again. in dfo jindalee.
the second dfo in brisbane and somewhere near my staying place, indooropilly.
and perhaps it was on weekdays and during school hours, there were few people in the mall which i totally love it. as if, i own the whole mall.

after continuous of rainy days, finally there is a clear view of sun for the whole day

direct factory outlet (dfo)
dfos in brisbane are always located in remote areas or at places that are far from residential areas and towns unlike the one i went in melbourne which is located in the middle of the city. going dfo is definitely a huge problem in Brisbane for you need to find the right bus and route to take.

before we started our shopping mission.
empty hands and shopping mode alerted.

omg and that's the first mng outlet i spotted on the information board in brisbane too.
hahaha weird but first in brisbane surprisingly.

no matter where i go, searching for a place to eat and dine in is essentially important.
you can't survive shopping without eating first.

and that's where we spotted 5 bucks hollister shirts. cool.

spare us for cam whoring for a while.
hard day of shopping gotta have some rewards like these for sure.

that's all for this post. short yeah i know. but when i arrived home, i ended up with a headache, backpain and neck ache. hahaha resting resting is all i need now.

xoxo,
the exhausted shen.

Dim sum Feast

after mid sem exams, enjoyment has became our main priority. in fact i had this weird feeling for not doing anything concerning studies or assignments. being a pharmacy student is undeniably a tiring one. once we completed one assignment, here comes the other and unfortunately we are the first to commence the exam and the last to stop it too. at times, i could get really frustrated with loads of work but now i began to feel the itch of not doing anything.
it feel weird to sleep without worrying anything.
but i should be appreciating this life now cause in future, it ain't gonna be easy.

my favourite picture from the three of us.
swee kee's innocent face, shen in the condor of hero hat and koo the shocked face.

fedora moments are really fun.
yeah but i didn't bought it. currently in a credit crunch era.

me and my craziet roommate i ever had.
jun-jun is her blankie name.
haha but i love her for being crazy.
it makes my life less miserable.

dim sum feast in brisbane city.
the portion of food wasn't that pathetic as in, in a plate, there would be 3 or 4 pieces.
unfortunately when th0se plates meet shen, the pieces got lost immediately. don't blame me please. there are many great eaters on that day.

for instance, them. well maybe not kuan chuan. he had a hard time finishing all his custard buns and vegetables. lol.
that's like 50% of the amount we ate.

and went sparkling clean in a few minutes.

and eventually we headed to the market in the city.
it is not really a wet market more like the whole market in west end transported here.
operates every wednesday selling grocerries, cookies and food.

and even this.
sorry for posting up the non halal picture.

the nutmeg and the nutcracker.
reminds me of the movie barbie and the nutcracker. i know it's a lame movie but honestly that was the first barbie movie i ever watched and not the last one too. =)

the picture proclaimed by miss koo to be the most well displayed and most handsome picture of all. you know who i meant. lol

sucking on water jelly. delicious but look at our tired eyes.
blame it on exams and maybe too much sleeping too during the swap week.

shen shall be signing off for now. will be posting more on my commencement of my holiday pictures and also birthday parties that i attended. apologies if i tend to ignore my blog at certain times and those are the times when i am emo. i promise not to be emo anymore until perhaps mid semester results are released. >_<

HOME MADE CHOCOLATE DIPPER

The most delicious and expensive looking and simplest dessert is made by us, the three little piglets.
yes we made dessert and we ate them, happier than ever.
those are our dessert.
chocolate dipper using super sweet strawberry.
and those whole box of strawberry was only AUS 2.50 and they are sweet.
when strawberries are sweet, they tasted hell of good.
and when you dipped it in dark chocolate, could anything get better than this?

to melt a chocolate using indirect heat.
place the chocolate in a bowl and put the bowl on top of a pot of boiling water.
dipping chocolate is one of most fun part to cook.

that's us. the happy kids dipping our fingers into chocolate at home.
try this at home
you will have lots lots of fun.
and delicious dessert in return.
=)

xoxo,
the dipper shen.

Do Miracles Happen in Life?

"DO MIRACLES EVER HAPPEN IN LIFE?"
cause that is something that i really need now in my life.
to create that smile back on my face.


I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Life is Unfair

As i grew older i eventually knew life is never fair. it is so absurd to claim life is fair.
perhaps i am miles away from my parents and my family that i start to hide all my feelings.
i find it hard to spill out for i know everyone would said i am being stupid and fussing about trivial matters.
my first semester is coming to an end.
yeah i do look fine in facebook or in real life but deep down i know i wasn't fine.
maybe i am just being oversensitive and thinking too much. but it wasn't my fault when things refuse to go smoothly in my life in queensland.
i claimed i was doomed then i took it back.
but now i won't say i was doomed i would claimed that i am totally doomed.
SUPER DOOMED.
i do not know how to tell people what happened in my blog cause there are too many of them. clarifying that it has nothing to do with my friends and my houses....
just something concerning my studies.
no matter how much effort i put it from waking up at three till studying till eleven at night it just wouldn't work for me. no matter how much effort i put in my lab report, doing a much more precise than the others, i would always remain with a B. no mattter how much effort i put in my oral presentation and no matter how well i spoke, my tutor is always stricter than the others. no matter how much i want myself to be lucky again, i am always in the puddle of unfortunates.
i do not want to make my parents worried bout me.
i know i will somehow survive with these ordeals just like how i did previously.
the problem is that i am only tired of surviving over and over again.
i just hope sem 2 will be a better one.
