Moving again

Saturday, February 28, 2009

Moving day again. But it's to my own place so I can't complain. Plus, it's nearer to shopping places :P

I actually have to buy my own groceries now. The thought of cooking by myself gives me this huge adrenaline pump yet totally terrifies me at the same time. I feel like taking that frying pan and cooking up an awesome omelette. Thats the best I can do OKAY. I'm sorry not sorry if I feel that in 5 years men will be staying at home cooking and women will be out playing with stocks in the market. Not that market. It's not chicken stock either. Men will be grocery shopping in that market. Fine, supermarket if you wish to call it.

I've been okay here so far. Trying out new things has made me realise how much I have been missing out on living in my little cocoon of comfort back home. I mean, I've never walked to so many places in my life before. Well, can't exactly compare cause the weather here is much better for walking purposes. I've never so much as wanted to take public transport unless someone was with me due to certain reasons. I have my reason okay. Don't call me a brat. Now, taking the tram doesn't terrify me. I haven't tried the train but I will soon :) Getting lost here is not so bad. My boyfriend, M, is with me all the time, helping me get to places so all I have to do is look at him to know where I am going. If he can't tell me, people here are friendly and nice enough to help :)

As I said, I've been okay. Now that I've got the most important things settled here, I'm just waiting for classes to start so I can get busy again. I hope I've joined enough societies as well. I'm contemplating getting a job. Maybe. Possibly. I know if I have too much time to think and ponder, I will miss home badly. Not too sure what will happen when the cousin leaves but hopefully this fille who has been itching to be independent will be okay. I'll be okay :)







p.s.: Yes the boyfriend is my MAP.

Melbourne :)

Getting lost in the city is such fun sometimes :) I don't feel stupid getting lost. People here are so friendly!

Okay I miss the family dearly. I'll admit it. All the things I'm buying are for them. I can't imagine them not coming to see me in June :( :(

But keeping busy with uni stuff now. Plenty to do. So little time. I'm out everyday and there's plenty to see here!

Oooooh I went to the State Library :) And I traveled to Phillips Island to see penguins! The cutest things ever :)

I'll update soon once I've settled down in my new place. Now I'm a nomad living with a friend. Toodles.

You people at home, don't forget me ya hear? I'll be back so fast you'll wonder how fast time flies :)

Busy busy busy!!

Been busy okay.

Sorry I don't have time to update much these days unless you wanna hear me grumble about the amount of things I can't bring with me. Packing is such fun.

Add in a splash of last minute outings with friends and spending time with the family and I hardly have time for myself anymore. Oh but I'll have plenty of it soon I suppose. In Aussie, I shall become anti social :P

Just joking. I don't even like to eat by myself. I feel this huge sadness tugging at my heart whenever I see people eat alone :(

I'll catch up with everyone once I've settled down :)

Pictues shall be sparse for the time being although I love my new cam to bits :D

The Funny Thing About Human Beings

Sunday, February 01, 2009

So here I come to impart some words of wisdom. Hear me and listen well.

"What is the human being's funniest characteristic?"

A:'Our contradictories. We are in such a hurry to grow up, then we long for our lost childhood. We make ourselves ill earning money, then we spend all the money on getting well again. We think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present nor the future. We live as if we were never going to die and die as if we had never lived.'

- Shamelessly plagiarised from the book Like The Flowing River by Paulo Coelho. Give the book a flip. It only takes a few things to give us that boost of self confidence we are lacking these days.

I know my blog lacks pictures. Its just because I am practically handicapped when it comes to editing pictures and lately I haven't taken much either. I shall lose the weight first okay? BUT here's one halfway decent picture of me. No comments unless you mean it. And I accept negative ones as well. Maybe that will get my butt to the gym. But no one has been commenting anyway.

It's blurry la. Webcam sucks. But it covers up the pimples and the bright light helps tons. I don't know how to use photoshop. It's not even installed in the lappy. Teach me when I ask you to.
