Christmas In Winter

~Turkey Ham~


~the Peas Soup~


~ Our Ginger Bread House ~







It was christmas in winter on the last friday (17th August).

In the afternoon, I was helping my neighbours to make the ginger bread house in my residential tutor's room which is just opposite my new room.

The walls of the ginger bread houses needed to be holded to let them to be stick to another piece of bread...
We used the icing sugar to stick everything together..
We used some piece of colourful chocolate, green sticky candy, and smarties to decorate the ginger bread houses...
Actually the gingerbread bread houses were made for them to compete with other blocks' ginger bread houses other than eat them up.

The college had special dinner that night at the dining hall of the college.
The food was nice. they have some chicken salad and peas soup for entree, rice with salmon and turkey for main course, and pudding with mustard for dessert.

During the dinner, all of us were needed to stand up to sing the "Twelve days of RMC Christmas", "the Silent Night", and etc..
The "Twelve days of RMC Christmas" were composed by our chapelain and the lyrics was really funny.

Alex and Wendy were the judges for the ginger bread houses.
Some ginger bread houses were funky ones, nice ones, and well decoration ones.
In the end, some guys from B Block won the third prize, girls from A Block won the second prize, and the first prize went to the D Block girls.

Around 9.30pm, the dinner ended and most people who went for dinner enjoyed it.


Some party people went to "The Ranch" to have fun.

Malaysia Night at UNSW...

* Heman *



* they were discussing where to go for dinner *



* Sarah *



* evening view of main road of UNSW *




It was thursday night...

Heman invited me to the malaysian food which was held at the UNSW.
I went there with my friend...
It took us about one and a half hour to reach UNSW by bus.

I met liying, joshua, adrian, and liying's friends (mike and denise).
At first, me and my friend reached the UNSW and called heman cause he was in the library.

Actually we thought that we were late for the malaysia food. It was because when we reached the city, we both needed to walk to the other bus stop at Elizabeth street to get to UNSW. In between, we both still went to the Ripcurl to buy things.

No matter what we are still earlier than others.
When I called liying up that time, she was still in the city with her friends.
So, we walked around in UNSW for a while to wait for the rest to come.

After a while, joshua came and he thought three of us were already in the uni bar. But, we were not. So, he paid 3 dollars and got the entry stamp on his hand. Due to not enough food issue, the rest of us didn't pay for the malaysia food.

The funny thing, was after joshua got the food, heman wanted to taste a bit of it but joshua refused to give him and both of them were fighting for it.

So, ended up all of us had to go out to have dinner. But, joshua and liying decided to go to Kingsford to have Indonesian food. Unfortunately, me and my friend didn't manage to follow them to have dinner, we went to the city to have our dinner and went for shopping.

In the end, we went back around 11pm and reached our college around 12am because we went shopping and missed the bus to get back...

Beading lesson...

~ Double tears Earrings ~



~ Tiger Wire Earrings ~


~ The new collection of earrings ~


It was 9th August.

There was a beading lesson in my college.

They taught us to make our own earrings. I've made few pairs of earrings.
The person who taught us to make the beadings were Alex Paige (one of he officer) and Nicole (one of the Res Head).
They taught us 3 types of the earrings : tiger wire, double tears, and pin head.

So far, I've learned to make 2 types of them which is double tears and tiger wire...

It was fun and interesting.

In the end, seems like I have the most pairs of earrings ~~~

Room Changes in the College...

In the end still have to change to another room which I don't really it...

Cause it's very sunny and hot during daytime. Even now is winter time, I still have to on my fan to the medium speed.
Still, in winter, the temperature during the daytime was 21 degree celsius. Really hot. Some more, my new room will have sunlight come in through the window in the morning, that is when the sunlight will somehow wake me up from sleeping. Stupid sunlight and stupid college!!!

Plus, when I first came in to the room, it had a smell. So, I went to Woolworths to get the air freshner to make my room smell better.

Damn college~~~!!!


Finally I've done with the shifting and arranging the things.
Really tiring...

Freedom~~~

freedom...

Who can give me back my freedom??

Why can't i go to my friends' house or rooms as I wish?

Why must some people stop from doing things?

I don't understand...

I want my freedom back~~~

I like to have more freedom than before~~~

Why are guys be the most benefit ones?

It's unfair...

Why guys always be be the first ones for the adults to think of , why not girls ?

Just because that there are more boys applied to stay in the college so the officers just gave and the officers just asked the girls to shift rooms? This is really unfair for girls. Plus, the officers cannot because that they want to earn more money so just asked the girls to change to other rooms, some more it's in the middle of the semester and it's the time that some students going to have exams.

Other than that, the officers said that the fees will increase for those future students if the girls insist to stay in their current rooms. In fact, the college does increase the fees every year.

So, what's the point asking the girls to change their rooms (actually the girls are forced to change their rooms)?


Stupid fire alarm

It was Tuesday night...

The stupid fire alarm rang!!!

It was already 1.15am which on the next morning...

By that time, quite a lot of people were sleeping...


Just because of the fire alarm, everyone woke up...

Everyone thought that need to evacuate from the buildings but in the end the announcement said " The fire alarm is being tested, no need to evacuate from the building."

Everyone was kinda speechless.

In the end, my neighbour didn't go back to own rooms to get back to sleep, we were discussing the stupid e-mail from the residential college officer that asked us to shift room problems which we thought is unreasonable during the middle of the semester.

Taylorians' Day

~Me and Kuan~


~Night View of the Harbour Bridge~



~evening view of the Harbour Bridge~


~At Darling Harbour~


~ Taylorians at the East Ocean Restaurant~




Saturday afternoon...
Called Erin and Herman up to talk about the Sunday "surprise" which was for liying...
Talk about Herman side first...

It was at the Central station about two weeks before the meet up. Herman and Joshua just simply shouted at me in the public. At first, I thought i heard wrongly. Seriously, i was very surprise that they are in Sydney. I didn't know that they are here in Sydney. And, by the same weekend, i asked liying whether want to go for shopping on one of sundays. After that, we confirmed about the day already then i called herman and joshua up. I told them that I'll be meeting liying up so asked them whether want to give her some sort of surprise..then Herman was quite excited also..So, here our plans came...

Then, until the day before the outing, Herman asked me to call Erin up and ask her about the outing on sunday. She agreed to come out as well. So, four of us (me, Erin, Joshua, and Herman) were supposed to meet up earlier before we met up with liying. But me and Erin reached the city first then Joshua and Herman were late..In the end, three girls met up in front of queen victoria building first then the guys just catched us up. Actually, the most important, was my present!!! (Liying forgot to bring them~~~)(Never mind, even though it was disappointed.)

We went to chinatown to have our brunch or lunch. We were chatting about lifes while we were waiting for our number to be called. Anyways, the food was nice.

After that, we went to Darling Harbour and Circular Quay(the place where we can see the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge)

We went to The Rocks for the pancake. The food was nice as well. But too bad that time just left me, liying, Joshua and Herman. (Unfortunately, Erin didn';t manage to join us for that )

Around 8.30pm, it was time to go home. Liying spilt with three of us to get to the bus stop. Then I went to the World Square to get some stuffs.

I went to find my classmate after that as well because he's staying at the World Tower. And we went to the Chinatown to have supper. But, before we went for supper, me and Kuan were waiting for one of his friends to print some lecture notes and tutorial work from the uni website. It was very late already. Luckily I managed to catch the last bus to get back to my residential college. (Actually one of my friends was very worry about me and kept on calling me to ask me when am i coming back to the college. It was around 12am)(Sorry friend to keep you waiting, i didn't mean it to let you wait until so late!!!)


So, looking forward to the Taronga Zoo trip~~!!! It should be after 2 weeks time...
