just realise how unpredictable my life is. Never in the same place for more then a year. Just made an important decision in my life. I just hope it will be worth it. (:

p.s: almost there Avril Phua!

Any excuse for us girls to dress up, and boys to drive their toys around.. well mid terms just ended and hard mugging sessions are just round the corner. So we thought we would all give ourselves a treat before that happens... so 4 cars in total made their way from Brisbane to the Gold Coast for some Tepanyaki @ Benhimama.. with an added twist that is.. (:

When I said with a twist, this was no ordinary fry here, add a bit of soya sauce there.. haha prawns were flying at us, fried eggs were being thrown about, volcanoes made up of onions were erupting that kinda twist... (: everyone was to engrossed no one bothered with videos Im afraid haha...

The whole lot of us

... and the damage.... thats only half the bill mind you... >.<

Ahhhh the infamous catching food without your hands pic.. best one of the night... (:

Snip

SNIPPED

My feel good song.... ♥

Let there be you

Let there be me

Let there be oysters

Under the sea

Let there be wind

And occasional rain

Chili con carne

Sparkling champagne

Let there be birds

That sing in the trees

Someone to bless me

Whenever I sneeze

Let there be cuckoos

A lark and a dove

But first of all, please

Let there be love

♥♥♥

Long day at uni today.. remember how I said life will throw you a curve ball once in a while.. well it kinda threw me another one today haha.. talk about turn of events.. Had a tutorial this morning, and after that the lecturer started talking to me after class. Asking what my plans were and all (prrffttt... ). Told him that I had to go back to finish my hons year first before I can consider doing anything else.. what Im trying to say is, my lecturer offered me to do my phd with him at QUT. Apparently, QUT wants to double their student intake for their Masters and PhD programme by year 2011, plus they are offering scholarships..

Talk about perfect timing...

Soon after he said there's a seminar by current 4th year students.. so I went to check that out.. see what 4th year is like, what kinda topics Sports Science students here do and I must say I was truely impressed (:

Uni ended at about 5 today and slowly made my way back home.. which usually takes me an hour and 10 mins... As I was waiting for the ferry, the sun was just setting, the colours were reflecting onto the brisbane river (been here what 3 months now.. haha dont even know what that river is called haha)... then this song started playing on my ipod and it just put a smile on my face.. like literally haha... (: so easily pleased.. my feel good song for the day..

AKL made dinner for everyone today, Ben and Jon were over to join us for dinner and we ended up at LDV again haha... Affrogato there is amazing! (:

I gotta thank everyone for their words of encouragment... ♥

tmr will be an awesome day cos its friday and its weekly Poker Night~!

♥ good luck AV LAV (AMP) ♥

Running out of steam....

Thats exactly how I feel, or have been feeling... People are constantly asking me, is this your last semester? Have you graduated? No, Ive not and Ive got a year to go... the usual response I get.. Wah still so long ah? sometimes it just makes me feel dumb.. Asking me how old I am and saying so old still doing an undergrad where everyone else is working, getting married and just living the dream... I must admit Im not the brightest spark, having taken the really long route to where I am today.. still dreaming the dream...

In college, the motivation was to make it to uni. Year 1 was to prove to myself that I can be university material. And by year 2, I wanted to prove to myself and others that me, the one who's been failing subject since primary 3, can get onto the Dean's List, which I did. But what happens when you have achieved all your goals that you have set for yourself thus far... set more goals??

Honestly, Im tired. I am. Im not gonna sit here and say that I'm not. And I'm struggling to keep afloat. Every year it just gets harder and harder. Maybe Im having a quarter life crisis, heaven forbid... Not looking forward to getting back ANY of my mid-term papers... none at all.. absolutely dreading it. ABSOLUTELY. I dont want it back, dont wanna know how badly Ive done, dont wanna know, dont wanna know.

Arghh.. gets really frustrating when you're so near yet so far away from the finishing line.. I love what Im studying dont get me wrong.. but just not knowing what's gonna happen after I graduate doesnt really help.. Do I go back to SG? Do I stay in Glasgow? Do I wanna come to Australia to work? Only I can answer these questions and I dont have the answers to them. What annoys the hell out of me is, I use to have the answer to those questions. I knew where I wanted to be. Things change, life is unpredictable, life throws you a curve ball every once in a while and this one has already hit me in the head... hard.

I need to find that motivation, that inner belief that I can do this. Its been downhill for a few weeks now, if only wings that redbull gives were real, would make that climb back up that much easier... (:

I can do this
