Although I dont want to be here, I still like my accommodation(except some housemates).

Last Friday there was a residential party organised by the management and there were free food for more than 241 residents. There were roasted chicken + chips, kangaroo curry + some rice similar to chicken rice, braised chicken wings, sushi, sandwiches and dozens of pizzas.

Then yesterday, there was a flat meeting for I think 6 flats. Then they fed use pizzas and soft drinks too. Like so nice loh. Dont need to cook for dinner! Then they organised a paintball trip this Sunday which I am not sure if I am going yet. Then one of my housemates told me that they organised some outdoor breakfast(free food again) during Easter break earlier this year. I heard there is another bbq coming up!

Like… so nice loh. I know we paid a lot for this but but… have friends renting a room outside(unfurnished) paying slightly more than I do weekly loh. So yea.

I lazy post pictures now lah. Later lah, kay? I need to get ready for class.

Ta!

Oh. Heres a video showing how windy it was.

Tour

Filed under: Fun, Pictures, Trips — Valentina July 22, 2007 @ 7:26 pm

So the uni’s international office organised a one-day tour for us. We had to assemble at 8am and leave at 8.30. I think I fell aslep at about 5 something in the morning. When my alarm rang at 7am, I battled against my will to stay in my warm, cosy bed. After 3-4 snoozes, I finally got up, brushed up, grab whatever I laid eyes on, slip on my flip flops, and left.

It started to drizzle while I was on my way to the uni and I didnt have an umbrella with me. =\ Luckily I was wearing the hoodie Wendy bought for me. So I walked to the uni with my half my head covered my the attached hat(if I had a basketball, I would have looked like Lucas from OTH).

What a lousy day. First I did not have enough sleep and then it had to drizzle. But the rain stopped when I reached uni and at 8.10am, I was one of the earliest. I thought after I left Malaysia I did not have to take in the famous “malaysia timing” into account.

It was frigging windy too and I was wearing my flip flops! Was freezing my ass off waiting for the students and the stupid bus to arrive. Stood in the wind for a good half an hr. Stupid one. Then the weather decided to change and popped the sun out after we got into the bus.

We went to a wildlife park, a chocolate factory, the nougat(supposed to be pronounced as “nuga”, not “nugget”), a winery(I did not go down…napped in the bus instead) and a harbour which I cannot recall the name.

The next stupid thing which happened was it started to pour when we were half way touring the wildlife park. I was drenched while looking for a shelter. *sigh* It just wasnt my day. I was then stranded in a hut with some pythons and lizards for about 10 mins before the rain stopped(crazy one right) and the sun popped out again. But then it started to rain again for the rest of the day soon after.

Luckily I brought along with me a another piece of clothing(wont call it jacket cause it did not keep me warm at all) to change into. okay. Let me tell you what I was initially wearing. I was wearing a spaghetti-straps(wore this only because it was damn hot the previous days and the internet was down in the morning to couldnt check weather) underneath the hoodie and a pair of woolen pants with my flip flops.

Hrm… looks like a lot of words in this entry. SOrry arh. Its 4am. Brain refuses to shorten sentences with alternative words.

Anyway, the chocolate factory was cool although it was really small and simple compare to Willy Wonka’s. No oompa loompas too. Then it was the nougat factory. We got a sample each. It was really small too. Nothing much. I stayed in the bus and napped for half an hour while the rest toured and wine-tasted at the winery since I dont drink, at all. Some came back to the bus half drunk lol.

Finally, it was the harbour. IT WAS FREAKING WINDY I TELL YOU but it wasnt raining lah. I even took a video of the trees swaying. But I like the harbour. There was a mall there which we all grabbed a quick bite. Saw lots of gulls there. You know, the ones that go “mine, mine, mine, mine, mine” in Finding Nemo. Took a group picture, then went off. It was damn cold the whole day. More so to me cause I wore too little and also the flip flops.

Thats all! Pictures of myself below. Pictures of other things tomorrow.

If my baby was there, he would have taken a lot of pictures for me :(((((((

Btw, I am currently listening to John Mayer’s Slow dancing in a burning room. Damn nice song. It doesnt have a decent mtv, so :

Email me if you want a copy. The proper one is much nicer :P

I am meme-ed

Filed under: Meme — Valentina July 19, 2007 @ 3:45 am

Justanothertragedy meme-ed me. She has been a very, very loyal reader and commentor. Sometimes I actually feel like she is a friend of mine in real life. So, how can ignore her meme?

Meme from Justanothertragedy:

Post up the FUGLIEST picture of yourself.


Tadaaa. Okay. This might not be the ugliest picture of myself but I think its pretty scary. Sorry arh June. I normally delete ugly pictures of mine straight from camera >.< This is the best I can do!

As for who to tag… I’ll do that later!

Ta!

Midnight update

Filed under: Pictures, Rants — Valentina July 18, 2007 @ 6:04 pm

I am quite grumpy at the moment.

I got sleepy at about 8(right after dinner. oh, I cooked curry today and housemate said it tasted really good!) and got to bed at 9 something after talking to The Guy. I was like, damn happy cause I could adjust my sleeping time a lil. Then I had to wake up and pee at 12 something and have been up since then :( Now dont know what time only can sleep.

Woke up and saw Suan’s msg in msn saying she was at airport, flying home soon. Felt bad for not able to reply her. Have a save flight home, Suan! Had a great day out with you :D

Shyt lah. Feeling hungry now. How? :(

Going for a Twillight tour later in the evening. Another full-day tour on Saturday(I actually typed ‘Saterday’ just now wth).

I have no idea why they had to make the orientation lasts two weeks since we practically do nothing much during these two weeks. make me come here so early for what?! Damnit.

Sorry. I am still grumpy. :(

Hora!

Life here is urm… not very interesting so I havent been updating. Nothing unusual has happened, yet.

Have not felt homesick yet. Only miss The Guy and The Mum. Other than that, I am settling down pretty okay. Besides the absence of the two most important person in my life, I dont feel like I am in a foreign country at all. It just feels like I was in an air conditioned apartment and Mum was in Taiwan and The Guy at work. I dont know. I think I get used to new situations too easily that its scary.

Surprisingly, I dont miss the food(yet) back in Malaysia. I dont miss 1U(my fav shopping mall) too. I dont even miss driving! I dont know. I am scaring myself. Am I turning into a boring lil woman(I think I am too old to use “girl”) already?! *sigh*

I dont waaaaaannnnnntttttttttttttt………

Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow

Filed under: Depression, Pictures, The Guy, Trips — Valentina July 7, 2007 @ 7:53 pm

Yesterday was our “last” date before I fly off. He told me that we were going to somewhere but he was not going to tell me. It turned out to be Bukit tinggi. It was day. Sunny but windy. It was a nice place too. I especially like the Japanese garden. Very relaxing. We proceeded to take pictures while “paktok-ing”. Then we got home, each showered, and fell asleep while snuggling. It was a wonderful day. Pictures will be at the end of this entry.

Today was a happy day too. The Guy and I and Carol went off for lunch, a rather luxurious one, and we all had a good time. Walked around the mall for a bit before we went home and fell asleep while snuggling again. Mum’s called woke us up and we went off to Mid Valley after freshen up. While waited for mum and bro to reach, we did something mischievous but that might be another entry. Then we all went to have another luxurious meal. Went back to The Guy’s place and continued snuggling until he fell asleep then I went to watch tv. Here I am not, at home, typing away.

Tomorrow will be a sad day. I have been dreading this day for so long. It has eventually arrived. All I hope now is to not cry at the airport. I really wont want to cry there. And also hope that they wont charge me for the 5kgs excessed luggage weight.

*sigh*

I still dont want to go.

Anyways. Here are the pictures :













See you.

The other day

Filed under: The Guy — Valentina July 4, 2007 @ 6:12 pm

he fetched me from my place for dinner.

I got in the car and he asked me if I had any plan. I told him my plan, which was nothing special at all.

He then told me that we were going somewhere else and he wouldnt tell me where. A Surprise he said.

We chatted during the drive and somehow, I cried. The mixture of feelings was too overwhelming.

With the trace of tears on my cheeks drying up and a half blocked nose, I guessed the destination, correctly. Heh.

It was a place he promised to bring me to, quite sometime ago.

That day, I felt really happy but my face showed otherwise. I was, at the same time, really sad because we wont be able to eat together for months.

There was once when I told him that we only had two weeks left.

Then he said, “True. But we have many decades ahead”.

We will have many decades ahead.

We will.

That piece of paper

I got my air ticket today.

I hesitated before paying. But there wasnt anything I could do.

Paid for it and left. The journey back home was quiet. My ears and my eyes were not listening. My mind was quite blank. My heart was getting lighter by the moment. I just didnt want to go. I wish I could turn back time. How I wish…

I DONT WANT TO GO
