Finally.... an update!

Well it's almost 2 months now since i first came here. Finally celebrated having internet at my place 2 days ago. With internet available at my fingertips, i finally decided to start updating this blog.

Time flies.. as it's nearly 2 months now. I realised that time are spent if you fully use it. Like when i just arrived, the 1st week was the week before uni starts so each day was spent walking around sightseeing, taking pictures, and buy stuffs. So that one week actually went by slowly and boy was it like i was in vacation.

Then uni started. Orientation, lectures, tutorials, lab sessions, suddenly everyday just went by so easily because there is a routine. Today do this, tomorrow do that. Then time just flies.

Well, things are going well at the moment. Passed up assignments just very on time, except the recent one with 8 minutes passed due time but thankfully, still counted.

There are lots of stuffs here in Melbourne. But i guess i'll blog about it in separate posts with pictures.

What a post!

Man.. it's been so long since i've posted in this blog.. had been very lazy.. lazy to do the tag thingy.. and was kinda malas to type..

now that my laptop's being sent in to be diagnosed 'cause the speakers are already erm.. 'bao ying' in chinese and in english would just be, having some problems, and the internet line's much better now and i finally think i have the time for it as i'm using my sis' computer once again, i'll blog for a while and do the tag SOT - Some Other Time..

Today's exactly a week before i finally fly to Melbourne on my own.. it'll be the first time travelling on my own.. the thought would normally excites me, but i'm having mixed feelings about it.. one more week in KK before i go.. yeah i'm coming back by the end of the year but it'll be quite some time later.. it's this kinda period where i would stop and look around and observe even more at the people and stuffs around me.. it's this kinda period where i would appreciate more of the people and stuffs around me.. man.. this kinda feeling ain't doing me any good..

It's really still a surprising thing for me, that i'm going to Melbourne.. studying in a university that i thought i would not be going.. RMIT.. when i applied with my lousy UEC results and A-levels forecast with 2 Ds i wasn't expecting i would be accepted, unconditionally.. and it's the only university to do so.. others would require me to get average C in my a-levels (which i so easily have acquired and even slight better(haha)) or can't offer me Civil Engineering but something else.. So i dragged.. i received the offer letter on the 6th of january but i've only sent in the acceptance form slightly more than 2 weeks later.. the offer's subject to availability of place there.. i've been told that there still is.. and now visa's done, accomodation's paid, ticket's paid, stuffs bought, i'm still a bit worried.. am i really going there? am i really accepted? i'm like, waiting for a big "YOU'VE BEEN ACCEPTED! JUST COME ENROLL YOURSELF ALREADY!!" which will be obvious enough.. but i'll continue to pray.. if this is God's Will i should not worry one bit.. but just miss everything back here though, haha..

oh well.. that's it for now..

From The Inside Out

Well i've been tagged by my Gen2 (not the car, haha), so to be fair i've considered all the songs i listen to. I put them all into my Windows Media Player. Except Chinese ones, to prevent any problems. There are a few non-english songs but their titles are in english.. except one. But well, in my list there are 612 songs and it says total 48.2hours long. Crazy.. imagine having to take slightly more than 2 days to listen to all the songs -.-. And for the 1st question i don't really know how to begin since though shuffle is turned on and repeat turned off it will still start from the 1st song (01 Your Name High, haha) in the list, which i have sorted according to title. But oh well, i'll just press next to begin and boy i can write a novel about this thing already so here we go!

I. Put your iTunes/any other players on shuffle.
II. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
III. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS!

Happy Birthday, Ronan!

Yea.. someone turned 20.. the age doesn't really matter. It wasn't really blast of a birthday but what surprised me was the number of people wishing me. Facebook helped a lot with the reminder thing and i received a lot SMSes, which is good, i think. And so fast the day is over, partly because i slept till noon.

Tried onlining but Streamyx has been very very bad these few days. The line kept breaking down -.- and only now when it's after midnight the line is better. Really gotta call them and have this lingering problem fixed. It's really riddiculous since my neighbour's internet line has been fantastic all these years.

Well here's some pics of my birthday cake, just 2 candles, haha..

Gotta blur up the name since it's TradeMarked. But i suppose some will do recognise the name.


Using my mind to blow out the candles. I really did it, no kidding. I used my mind to think of blowing the candles, and then my mouth reacted and blow! So the candles got blew out, haha.

And just now at night went Salim and treated a few of my friends yamcha, which is my favourite past time (not the belanja). The pics taken are not with me here.

Well i've been tagged by my Gen2 and i suppose i'll just gotta do that later in the morning since i can't stay up any later. It's not that i can't but i'm not allowed to as i've been up till 6 in the morning twice in a row using the computer, haha..
