so far so good

A lot has been going on since I got back here. Up till now, every weekend is filled with fun stuff with the people I love so much. It’s only been a month but maybe after the Easter break; everybody would be busy which means less outing. But I still have Lia and Bean. ☺

So, here’s a few stuff that happened so far.

**MASCA welcoming BBQ
Great food by the famous UQ Lake, reunion, fun activities, poco-poco dance! =p

**Confessions of a Shopaholic
Chick-flick get together (+ 2 boys, sibuk je), late supper of pancakes, good ‘ol girlie time =)

**SeaWorld, Gold Coast
Random trip, cute dolphin and seals, awesome reef wildlife, ice cream on hot day, yum!

**PPMQ picnic
Delicious nasi lemak, pulut kuning and other stuff, great day to take pictures, reunion, a fun day out in the sun.

**Chicago The Musical
Wonderful stage show, awesome dancers, great songs, two thumbs up!

More events to come. Most looked forward to: Easter break road trip!













and that's that

Big win LIVERPOOL

I woke up this morning and opened my FB page. Looking at the new status of my friends, I knew that Liverpool won last night’s match against Man U. Some of them are happy about it and of course, Man U fans don’t like it at all. These people are the strong supporters of football.

Before the match, my friends and I went to dinner. The boys have been talking about the match that night and wanted to make sure that we get back before the match started. Some people that were coming in and out of the restaurant were wearing their favourite team jerseys. Then I thought to myself, this is going to big a deal to these people.

So after we got back, the boys went to their ‘football lairs’, which are houses of people with Foxtel. One is for Man U supporters; the other is for Liverpool fans. As for us ladies, we didn’t even give any attention to what the boys were chatting about, let alone trying to find out what channel the match will be on. But I do understand the boys’ excitement. I live with an Arsenal fan since childhood.

On the bus on our way home, a girlfriend of mine asked a guy friend of mine, what is so great about watching football? The guy friend explained the rush you’ll feel when a goal is scored. They will talk about how beautiful the goal was and will cheer along with their fellow friends. I looked at my girlfriend’s face and she was making a straight face. Which means, she doesn’t understand or she doesn’t even care. Haha. Then I told her, it would be the same as if a guy asks you, what is so great about shopping and dressing up. Then she said ok, fair enough.

There are female football fans and there are shopaholic guys. So it is a matter of what interests you in life that makes you happy when you do it. And if you’re in a relationship with one of them, or any other form of fans or hobbies, the best is to give and take and respect each other’s interest. I know a lady who doesn’t even know how football is played but would stay up with her hubby until the dawn to accompany him watching football match at home. Some people would say, she doesn’t have to do that, but to me, it is sweet. Well, different people have different ways of showing their affection to one another. Ok, out of topic here. My bad.

So, to Liverpool fans out there, bravo! Your favourite team had a big win last night. I knew the first few goals were good as I can hear the cheers from my neighbour’s house, the Liverpool lair. =)


and that's that

p's: my fav status msg was from Ajiep, "Arziff Fardlullah rasanya hartamas tengah sunyi sekarang ni. haha" =p

Getting started



Saying goodbye was hard last Saturday. I left home with a heavy heart. It’s not like I will never go back again but the summer break was awesome. But as soon as I saw my friends again, I knew that things would be ok as usual. We arrived in Brisbane late at night so we ended the night early. The next day, first thing that we did was filling up the empty fridge. Hard labour shopping is back.

So the new semester started last Monday. I can say it started off pretty good. Seeing familiar faces, lecture halls and refracs somehow made me feel better and prepared. But the first lectures were intense. My ‘3-month-idle’ brain was suddenly switched back on and forced to work twice harder than usual. The lecturers are serious this time.

Halfway through the week, the old habit of ours started. Lia and I went for the movies after Wednesday classes to catch “He’s just not that into you”. May I say, that movie made me feel depressed. =(
The next day, a trip to Ikea with a few others was worth the long trip and cash flowing out. We’re excited to re-decorate the house. =) But I like Ikea Damansara way better (because of the meatballs =p).

Today, we went to the city to get some stuff. Tomorrow, MASCA will be organising a welcoming BBQ and as usual, we are the servers. Sunday, factory outlet shopping maybe? We’ll see. Looks like the whole week’s been great and I hope it continues.
