"Why never update?"
My bad.. haha.. Ive just not had the time to! Honest to god... Time here just flies right by... Juggling between uni classes, tutorials, housework, running, playing with Russell, talking to my parents on skype, shopping for food, ice-cream by the time I start to wind its already almost midnight!
Crikey... dont get me wrong, Im loving my time here.. my gargie (diane) who always makes me laugh, our house mates Avril and Ah Kong Low who are always up for ice-cream, where dear Avril has 2 spoonsful and says Im full (says Diane) hahaha.. couldn ask for better company! *winks*
Here's a little update...
Spent the weekend in Syndey (as you would)... Gotta thank Tian Li and Ines for giving me an air-conditioned room and bed to sleep in! hahah.. I still love my bed in the garage with my personal fan (:
Kelvin had an interview in Sydney on wed and stayed on so I had a "not to experienced tour guide who did try his best" haha.. (: Oh and congrads on getting the job!
Well typical touristy pictures... the harbour bridge and Opera House in all its glory...
Took the chance to meet with Ryan for dinner.. always a pleasure Partner.. (: Pancakes on the rocks.. amazing place!.. 
Oooo Krispy Kreme.. walked past it.. swear I didn walk in! hahah... had a weird craving for bubble tea that day.. odd..
Oooo one more OOoooo ahaha.. Kelvin and I were walking along Darling Harbour, exploring the place and we came across this! hahaha... Bollywood movie in the making! hahah I thought I recognised the actor (not that I watch a lot of Bollywood films haha).. Alistair gets to meet James Mcavoy and Kiefer Sutherland, I get to meet a Bollywood actor.. (:
Darling Harbour, Sydney Opera House at night... I know my photos are rubbish haha.. I forgot to bring my camera along so had to make do with my phone camera haha.. *doinks*
We went to Huntervalley for a day.. wine tasting.. new experience for me haha... bought a bottle of wine for the house.. on our way back we stopped at this Aqua Golf place.. very interesting place hahah...
Right see how there are boards bobbing in the lake, well under those boards are nets.. and if u hit into the net, you win what ever is on the board. Say your golf balls falls into a Subway board, you win Subway vouchers! haha... this poor soul was trying so hard, but his ball were always way off haha... better luck next time buddy...
We went for German food at this place with some of Tian Li's friends from Uni.. reminded me a lot of Germany.. food tasted just as good.. sausages and beer haha.. they had entertainment like Beer drinking competition and all.. loads of ppl were having celebrations there.. there were like 3 birthday celebrations, at least 2 Hen Nights and 1 Stag Night... good night...
Our taste buds were put to the test one night.. Sichuan extra spicy soup! wohooo... awesome.. haha
Bondi beach on the last day where the boys helped themselves to a deep fried mars bar each with me cringing while they eat.. reiterating to them that each bite is probably a gazillion calories haha...
I had the BEST Jap sashimi dinner that night.. avocado chawanmushi, fresh sashimi.. awww if only I can have that everyday... yums...
Not to mention our little visit to the fish market where I had super fresh sashimi.. arghhhh Well that was my trip to Sydney in a nut shell.. not much of a picture taking kinda person as you can tell.. haha... but I had fun.. (:
But while I was away, I did miss my gargie, and the lovely couple and of course Russell (who Bryan calls my bf now..) who wouldn want such a cutie haha.. (:
Oh and I hand-carried home an entire passionfruit cheesecake for the house! hahaha I did take half a day out in Sydney to study and do my tutorials so that work will not pile up...
QUT gives you so much work! and people have been telling me that Australians are very laid back people.. sheesh.. If I dont do work everyday, I dunno how to get everything done. So much more compared to what I do in Glasgow.. Im actually enjoying the work.. it doesnt feel like a chore eventhough I do complain abt it when my eyes gets tired from all the reading haha..
Anyways.. speaking of work, Ive yet to finish my tutorial... long day at uni tmr.. wheee... and I'll have my long weekend! (:
