despite the fact that i clamied i enjoyed brisbane life a lot, meeting new friends and everything in overseas, the truth is i still miss my home deeply and especially my old friends back in Malacca and my 'family' in intec. i miss so many things around me that sometimes i wish i can turn back time. to feel all those moments once again. but i know i am getting older or perhaps wiser those are the things that i must leave behind to look at the future. emo emo emo.

i miss spending time with my family, fighting with my dad on who has the right to lay on the lazychair, eating my mum's dishes, quarrelling with my sister on who gets the internet connections.... everything on my family seems so surreal now.

i miss my best buddy back in malacca. seeing her so worried of her love life, her studies and looking at how she swear upon a reckless driver, and go drop dead shopping with her. i do miss her a lot.

i miss mary anne ng wee lyn too.. i can even still remember her full name, the ginseng cup that she uses, how she likes to eat eclipse, not a fan of mamak, comparing prices in supermarkets, crying by the balcony, listening to not so new songs, her brown covered sandals.. i just remembered her so well.

i miss my canberra classmates especially carolyn and connie. i miss how cute connie was fighting with logesh screaming safira's name. how hafizi makes everyone laugh with his lame jokes. mariam and atiqah.... i miss victor too. i totally lost contact with him and i hope he is doing well.

i miss the car destroyer team too. nah i miss my bunch of friends in malacca. how wacky they are especially eunice on how she can crap non stop, li lin on how she defend herself on being tall, on jyi on how she claim she looks so alike like jay chou, on siang on her extremely loud laugh, luah as ikan buntal, pin with her cute cute hair style, cherylyn on her creative drawings and wacky ideas, onn onn as our love guru and bee fang on how we tease her with somebody and everyone in malacca.

i never thought i will miss intec but i do miss my life in shah alam scrambling around with the cool people in intec, akasia and cemara. i miss how crazy everyone was and how we defend the legacy of ausmat as the best programme in intec.

i miss carolyn too the person who loves to camwhore with me and how i play with her love keychain putting in crazy pictures. on how she woke me up when i fallen asleep during lectures and how cute she was that she holds the title of tweety bird. hope you are doing fine in melbourne.

i miss my room mate a lot. despite her mood swings, i do love her a lot on how she would be there for me when i am down or crying on how she motivated me to study and on how crazy she was over japanese entertainment and on how she offered me tissues when i was crying while watching japanese dramas.

and i miss you too. the cheesy fan. i hope you are doing fine with your owner. i still could remember the times i spend with you and on how we study together back in my classroom. stay alive cheesy fan. please don't die. hahaha.

the sentimental shen

australian drinks a lot a lot as in a lot.
clubbing pub bars are everywhere in Brisbane town. and get really busy especially during the nights.
so last Saturday, the three ladies went to southbank and ended up in a winery shop. that's simply the coolest wine shop i ever seen before. maybe not because i am not a drinker so i won't really enter at wine shop unnecessarily.
p/s: we did not went in by ourselves. we went there together with xiang xiang's aunt and uncle. parental guidance is strictly wanted.

mesmerized with the whole range of wines collections.

and that winery shop just gives me the feeling of elite and exclusive which utterly means underdogs people like me can never suit into such expensive shop.

prices of wine ranges from the cheapest about aus 20 to the most expensive which can costs nearly hundred just for a bottle.

and some wines or beer or tequila or xo or whatever alcoholic drinks come in really adorable and fashionable bottles. which actually increases my urge to taste it. but definitely i did not. to even taste those wines you gotta pay for it just for a sip.

and the bottle of wine that attracted us the most
is definitely
this EGG WINE BOTTLE
on par with the easter day celebrations.

xoxo,
the so not drunk shen.

neglecting my blog was the last thing i would do back in malaysia but ever since i was in Brisbane, i totally lost interest in blogging. NO WAY! that's should not happened. i must maintained my blog so called legacy... my very old blog. i can never possibly leave it to rot and die. no way!!!.
so my mission for now is to revive my poor blog.

i should have posted on my trip two weeks back but laziness has gotten the most of me.
so yes i went to gold coast specifically wet and wild world and movie world.
one word - FANTASTIC!!
and the best part we bought the promotion ticket worth AUS 70 for three theme parks with unlimited entry which means we can return to those places for free. F.O.C. and seriously no kidding.

despite the blazing hot sun and sweaty body and long journey from city to gold coast by train, the journey to gold coast is indeed worthwhile. we arrived there even before the ticket counter was opened. that's how excited we were. we even woke up at six just to get there as early as possible and ended up snoring in the train.

i won't really describe what we did there cause i feel it would be best for you to experience it yourself. theme park is the only hint i can give but trust me genting highland is nothing compared to this.

never ever go those theme parks by yourself. bring a group of friends cause that's only how you will enjoy to the ultimate.
and never go during winter too. you can't play those wet games.
and despite the long queue you have to wait, everything is worthwhile.

and i definitely can't wait to go there again and again and again. oh boys, hols please do come asap. i do really need a break from my boring pharmacy studies. oops not being bad here but just spilling out my frustration.

the best part, in two weeks time my sister from melbourne will be visiting me for easter break. and i would be going to SURFERS PARADISE (the famous beach ) and HARBOUR TOWN for drop dead shopping. now i am counting the days till Easter arrives.
hyaku!!!!

xoxo,
the excited shen.

i might have possibly freaked out my loves one with the shoutouts in my facebook and for the abandoning of my poor blog which i used to update it every day every hour.
sorry for all those misconceptions.
i am doing fairly well in brisbane except for some certain trivial issues which do not really even concern me.
what the hack i am crapping about? perhaps that's what you're wondering.
for those who are in brisbane or within the group of friends i hang out, i bet u guys know better than me. or maybe not.
for those who are away from me, the whole matter doesn't really concerned me though but being the friends of both parties it gave me the responsibilities to smoothen out everything.
perhaps if you have read the blogs of my friends or the shout outs from my other friends, you will have a rough idea of what is happening.
i will not say out here what happened for it is not necessary as it will not make much difference.
i do not put the blame on the three of them for it wasn't their fault. things happens and sometimes it is fated.
but i feel it is time for everyone to accept what had happen and look at the future instead.
ok maybe i crapping way through.
but i just wanna claim
i wanna quit as a middle person.
it sucks.

two weeks have gone by.
yes i am two weeks old already in university of queensland.
the weather over here has finally changed into something which i shall call less summery more windy. perhaps because it is autumn and due to the attack of Hamish cyclone in queens land. worry not for everyone out there cause brisbane is far away from the northern queensland. except that it gets really wet these few days in brisbane with endless rains and no sunshine. =(

classes are getting kinda fun certain times depending on the lecturers. since it was my second week already, most of my lecturers have been changed and i missed my old lecturers a lot. now i am loaded with tonnes of assignments which even at times i can't hardly understand. -_-.

for even statistics, i was assigned to do some research, conference and presentation on hypothesis testing which i utterly hated during my days in intec. i can never get away from statistics even in brisby.

for biology, i was supposed to write a personal response of 750 words on one of the 8 topics in the cd distributed to us. believe it or not i fallen asleep several times while listening to the cd. gosh and i still haven't listened all yet.

for pharmacy, i got so confused with all the pharmacy reference books in library. having my tutorial test next week even further coarsened the whole situation. and some pharmacy calculations which we are supposed to read on ourselves as it is tested in exam but not being taught by lecturers really at times make all of us wonder:"omg pharmacy is so damn freaking complicated."

i had my english screening test and i totally screwed it. haha let me announce my stupidity in my whole life.
in one part of the test, we are supposed to continue the words in the blank. they will give us the first two words and the rest we have to figure out ourselves and guess what i did? instead of leaving blanks like most of my friends did, i made the greatest humilation of myself.

A vol______ person changes his mood easily.
( as my vocab sucks the answer should have been volatile.)
but guess what i wrote???

A voluptuous person changes his mood easily.

wkakakakakaka...laugh at me... i can't believe i wrote that too. >_<

ok enough of fretting for this whole post. . just updates on my busy hectic life. till then, i shall be signing off.

xoxo,
shen.

everyone got so absorbed into our chef master gabriel cooking.

and yes the food tasted damn freaking good. i am sorry for being greedy that day. hard to control when i am served with good food.

city cat ferry rides.

which eventually turns out to be our weekly ride to city or anywhere due to the addiction of koo is having. she even made us ride the ferry from the first station till the last station in Apollo road to and fro and that took us nearly two hours. and that night i felt so giddy due to sea rides. lol


the excitement koo displayed when she is on the ferry.

the morning before we left for sunshine coast.
squatting by the roadside playing cards. yes that's us.
so crazy in gambling games but no money is involved for sure. we are still innocent.

positive attracts negative.
inseparable.
