1 year have yield such an outcome... i have been officially accepted into medicine in Melb Uni which is like my dream for this year....
should been feeling ecstatic and all... and yes i do feel that. but still there is a tinge of disappointment as many of my friends did not get the course that they want. and well, frankly, it is sort of depressing. it's like if i get in, i hope my friends get the course they want to. after all, who would wish their friends fail miserably in their courses....
still, for the next 6 years, i will be happy... really happy doing something that i have dreamt of for years... 6 years of hardwork will be worth it....
and thus this brings me to my christmas wishlist of the year:
1) enough money to build a hospital specially equipped to treat AIDS patients in Africa and enough AIDA medications for the nation
2) a pair of overalls (yes, i really want one as my old comfy one has been give away)
3) lifelong 50% discount for Borders, Kinokuniya and MPH (i don't ask for much...)
4) an iPod engraved with the words "Veni, vidi, vici"
5) a PSP player (yes, i DO love games)
6)flood victims in Johor will get sufficient help and funds to rebuild their homes
7) a cure for both cancer and AIDS
8) an end to ALL wars
9) a crate of cherries
10) a pair of ballet flats (have been searching for the perfect ones for ages)
it is one mix-and-match list for this year and i DO hope that i will get every single one of it... LOL

albert house 2006
darn it...
how many times must i tell myself that since i'm staying in JB, i can see the singaporean gals anytime i want??!! it's just across the causeway right??
but what about the KL people and that terengganu boy??!!
sigh....
albert house 2006 ended yesterday....
am still in my room no doubt sitting in front of the laptop but now... i strain to hear noises from the tea room (during exams, it used to drive me nuts) and when i come down the stairs, it's like silent, no slamming fire doors, no clatter down the stairs in flip flops... even the usually noisy laundry room is dead silent...
will miss the albert house people lots....
we had fun, didn't we??

Queen Vic Market Shopping Trip
had the bestest time in Queen Victoria Market today!! it was so much fun..
what can be THAT nice about grocery shopping?? well, for starters, you need to go to a super bustling, super happening place like Queen Vic to get the goods. and when i say goods, i do mean literally anything under the sun... yes, even clothes and sour sticks (yes, me and yi yu saw these super long sour sticks that you can chew on for ages till it melts in your mouth)....
but most of all, i love the organic section for fruits and veggies. for organic stuff, the price range is really cheap man, considering that it's the freshest and least harmful of all foods.... and not to mention ,the gourmet ready made food section that has Greek dips, German bratwrust, marinated baby octopus, exotic coffees, never-before-heard sausages and bread rolls..... it's like a foodie heaven man..... it's been a long time since i last went there and boy did i miss it!!
so my Safeway green Eco friendly shopping bag contained these when i came back:
1) 5 nectarines (they are so darn cheap...)
2) 4 peaches (again, darn cheap too)
3) 1kg of cherries (again, half the normal price and they are sooooo sweeeet *happy sigh*)
4) 2 boxes of blueberries (a good source of antioxidants)
5) 2 Don Viennese frankfurt (it looks tempting in the window display and it's cheap)
6) 1 chicken oregano long sausage (again, it looks tempting)
7) 1 slice of baked cheesecake for Janice (it's her Econs exam tomorrow so a little encouragement for her as i know she LOVES cheesecake) and it's rumored to be the best cheesecake in Melb (that's what the display said anyway)
8) a small container of baby octopus (this is for Shaleen...she can't get enough of the octopus entree we had at Stalactites that day) from the greek gourmet food section....
for me, it's just fruits, fruits and more fruits for me... yums... can't wait to start on my nectarines.....

a mixed basket of life...
oh heck, it's the end of the 1st and worst week of exams and boy am i G-L-A-D!!
yep, it's 4 subjects down and 1 more to go and that one more is only on 4 Dec... yay...
still it's freaking bio so memorisation is the key to score and Mel so does not like to memorise. she does better by understanding stuff... wonder why i took up the subject in the first place. probably because i THOUGHT it might give me a headstart on my probable career in medicine and not to mention, i THOUGHT it was so darn easy to score....shucks... i GUESSED wrong then....
anyways, to celebrate the end of chem finals today, we had a sort of impromptu girls shopping trip to Safeway.... yeah yeah yeah, it's only the local supermarket, not some super huge departmental store.. but hey, i haven't see the outisde sunlight in such a long time and can barely remember what it looks like... it's like *open door, blink, blink, blink* "wah, outside look like that one arh??"... okay, i'm exagerrating, but exams can do that to you man... sreiously... long term effects....
and since i'm taking a break from bio revision, shall just put up wacky pictures of the shopping trip where i only bought one HUGE bar of Cadbury Black Forest Choc (my favourite, my only obsession i will NEVER give up), some Lindor Thin Milk Chocs and Who magazine with Tom Cruise and Katie's wedding as the front cover... her reception dress looks so prettyful, designed by Armani and hand made with thousands of Swavaroski crystals... check it out man... absolutely classy and stunning.... still i'm wondering whether Suri, their little baby daughter (some weird name i must say, named after the African sun or something like that) is REALLY the offspring of Tom and Katie. sure, she resembles Katie but definitely NOT Tom.... i smell something scandalous here..... oh well.... celebs and the goss about them.... hmmm... entertaining...
me and qiqi both in our white white white pure white hoodies...
our other two shopping partners, yi yu and shaleen along Drummond St where we live...
qiqi in her "hmmm...." mood.... she was so darn happy today after chem exam was over... i was too....
and courtesy of qiqi , who actually demanded me to take this stupid, pathetic picture of the christmas tree in QV... it's quite pitiful compared to the HUGE on standing just on Swanston Street, around Collins Street.. qiqi was exclaiming all the way about how pretty it was and stuff... but qi arh, ic an find better ones for you rather than waste my MB on this pathetic tree man...
anyways, tomorrow, shaleen promised that we will go out to eat dinner!!! yay,.... finally, after two weekends of take away food..... this girl will go crazy at the sight of Toto's pasta or pizza....shall consult my Foodies' Guide To Melbourne tonight and look for any Japanese restaurants as requested by Shaleen.... that book is seriously good man....
and can't wait for tomorrow when i can go to Queen Vic Market to get my cherries, peaches and nectarines. this will be my second last week to taste such nice fruits man.... after that two weeks, i'm flying home where peaches, nectarines and cherries are bloody expensive... must stuff my face tomorrow. just taht night, shafiq bought some cherries from St Kilda, the local ones and jin sern gave me some. you could see my whole face lit up the moment the cherry MELTED in my mouth. it was so sinfully sweet man and oh-so-refreshing. you can literally see me swoon man. it's that amazing. alright, at least it is to me... as i LOVE my fruits....esp the above three. during the beginning of the year, i bought nectarines and peaches by the armloads. it was in season and so dirt cheeeap. now it's back in season so *goes off dreaming into the distance*...... *happy sigh*

of othello and pictures...
rhetoric is divided into 3 types, mainly logos, pathos and ethos. the first one appeals to the logical and reasoning side of humans, the second is the appeal to the emotional state while the last is an appeal to the character and credibility.
now that is what i learnt from Eng Lit... didn't know the powers of persuasion is so complex. oh well, now i know how to get my way around things because different people need different rhetoric techniques to convince them of something. like say a military figure like our dear Othello can be manipulated using both logos and pathos at the same time....
ok, enough of Othello... shall just post pictures instead.....
me, janice and shaleen at our annual class picture day.... love these two girls... they are the two closest friends i have in melb....
the girls from Albert House. it's like one big family portrait man....
more pictures of the girls....
chris, qi and me....
tiana and me!! she along qiqi has tonnes of earrings man.....and they are both trying to convert me into wearing dangling chandeliar earrings which i absolutely detest!!!
me and shaleen in colour coordinated black and white outfits for the day....

now or never...
oh well, am in the Leeper library now checking my email and stuff and yes, also waiting for my turn during drama exams... argh, am still darn pissed that my group is the second last to perform in the whole freaking Trinity College!!!darn it.... i hate being last man... it's like you see so many other performances and let me tell you that they are so darn good man!! it's making me feel so inferior and it's not doing much for my stress level!! i'm supposed to cry in the drama and seeing other people cry so effortlessly in their scenes is so not fun lah!!!
but heck, shouldn't be complaining coz my group is really good and they are tons of fun... and not to mention, drama itself is fun... you get to be someone else for a change and for once in your whole life, you get to live the experience of being watched... it's like the spotlight is on you for once in your life and i do mean it literally... and when you get up there, you feel gazes on you and when you hit the right spot with the right lines and right emotions, you feel the collective suck in their breaths, waiting for the next action....i guess it's the desired effect every actor on stage wants.... it's like we live for the moment, like we are living for the 8 minutes and then, it's over and there's nothing you can do about it....
but for me, the moment i'm on stage is like i get an adrenaline high... yes, i do get the jitters and i can see my hand shaking... but heck, you take a risk and put all your feelings out there and you know that you will be fine....
all i can say is that i'm thankful for my drama group coz without tze, nick, sujana and tiok nee, drama wouldn't be THAT fun...
so cheers to you, guys....
it's now or never....

5) The Green Mile (now this is WAY out of context here but heck, it's a great inspiring movie, makes you weep like hell!! maybe this should be an after prom movie, after all you don't want smudged mascara do you?)

T-B-N!!!
prom fever is seriously infecting trinity man!! like just today, 3 different people asked me to go for the after prom party. then in chem lecture, i overheard (i'm no evesdropper man!!) 3 girls going on about pedicures for the "BIG NIGHT"... yes, i shall term prom as "THE BIG NIGHT" from now on... TBN for short...
oh well, i'm just glad that i don't really have all the hassle of buying dresses and shoes and accersories here in melbourne. i took the chance when i went back for the june holiday to get all my stuff. besides, it's cheaper there and not to mention, i know which shop has the prettiest dresses or the cutest bag. and my fashion consultant, my MUMMY, was there to give her advice. in fact she picked out my prom dress for me!! i was nearly giving up buying one coz i either looked fat in them or i looked too short in them or.... whatever lah. in the end, i got this really simple cream gown from Daniel Yam. super simple and super me lah...anyways, it's my mummy's thought that matters and not to mention, my daddy said that i looked pretty in it too!! hehe..... p.s. it was cheap too!!
oh well guess everyone will look their best during TBN... and one word to Qi: just be comfy in whatever that you wear okie, girl?? you're already very pretty and the dress is just going to accentuate it alright?? and tiana, can't wait to see you in your super hot dress lah!!

shoes fetish!!
oh gosh.. i went shopping just now to find gold flats to go with my after prom party outfit at Myers and i saw this gorgeous sparkly gold ballerina flats and it cost AU$500!!!! waaaah, instantly my dream fantasy arriving in those gold shoes vanished!! it's by Marc Jacobs!! sobz...
so i had to settle on a pair by Mosaic. gold shoes nonentheless. but i want Marc Jacobs!! sigh... wish i had more money...
then i saw another pair by DKNY i think and it's gold too and i wanted that one... and it's slightly cheaper... but still around AU$400!! geez....
oh well. looks like i have to settle on the cheaper and not-so-pretty version of them then...
and i had Sumo Salad again for lunch. Lemon and herb chicken salad!! absolutely delish!! and a cup of Superjuice. i feel so healthy now... hehe... maybe i should top it up with an apple and nectarine.... must slim down before prom you know... or at least have glowing healthy skin....

*IT* & *HIM*
i wonder if i would go back to when i was born and reverse everything whether *IT* would make a difference in my life...
but then again *IT* made such an impact on my life that i can never imagine myself without *IT*....
hmm... maybe that's why you can never live a day twice, much less live your whole life ALL over again...
and *IT* did save my life after all...
i should be grateful that i'm alive that is...
anyways, on to happier thoughts....
i finally saw him for the first time yesterday and well, let's just say that i was surprised by how he looked....
for a guy that is him, my expectations of "him" is this really nerdy and starbucks-going guy with a notebook under his arm and his head in the clouds but well, don't judge the book by its cover.
and then i saw him today again and suddenly he looks like a nerd all over again....
what can i say?? i'm just one confused girl... my perceptions of people are as constant as the moon cycle....

anyway, back to prom... the most unlikely people are going to the prom together and there are really weird couples.. "merely friends" huh?? hehe....
well, wil be going out with the albert house people and will be sitting with them... so it should be the most boisterous table in the hall and it is after all the last event of the year and not to mention, the after prom party at ember or hush.... so need to buy a new top or something for that... because i'm so not going dancing in my long dress.....

dad even said that he wants to walk his "little girl" to college.... hehe, guess he does miss me after all... i mean, the intelligent conversation in the house will have definitely decrease after my departure....
so yes, i will make a list of things to do and eat (the eating part is especially for my bro) so that i won't waste anytime thinking of places to bring them....
1) of course, a tour around albert house (this is for my dad's benefit since he has never actually seen the place yet) note to self: clean up room.. or maybe not coz mum will do that for me without me asking coz that's what mums do best!! cleaning!!
2) a trip to the whole family's fave greek restaurant!! stalactites!! mum's been craving it since last time
3) pancake parlour!! yes, it's like a hidden treasure tucked away on swanston st taht makes the most awesome, buttery pancakes. yums!!
4) DFO, chadston for my mum and dad for all their shopping needs and for daddy to exercise his wallet a bit... hehe and then smith st for my bro, the sports freak.
5) and the national gallery of victoria for bro!! he always wanted to see the paintings and i just bought a whole book describing each piece fo artwork and i finally have someone to go with me and go gaga over the art!! yaaaay....
6) and st kilda!! the ultimate beach getaway... hopefully, it will be warm enough then we can play in the sand and sea and eat all the yummy seafood... coz i just got this foodies' guide for just $2 at myers' sale and they have like all sorts of cafes and food places in st kilda!!
7) some salads from sumo salad in QV for mum... she absolutely adores them... she's such a health freak man...
8) sofia.... the nicest and cheapest restaurant in camberwell.
9) and that brings me to notturno, where friends meet on lygon.... the most heavenly cakes on earth and the most sinful caesar salad i have ever tasted....
10) great ocean road and if possible mornington peninsula for daddy... he always wanted to go there....
11) all the surf shops on swanston for bro!! he loves his boardpants and hopefully it will be hot enuff for him to show them off. but then again, even if it is chilly, he would still wear them, he has skin THAT thick... liek a polar bear can keep warm in minus 0 degrees in his boardpants.
12) max brenner's!! my fave choc bar!!

adults only please....
oh well... it is the 1st day of college....
and it is well... like college-ey...
we had this field trip to melbourne musuem for our bio practical... a great way to start a college term i would say. we had a great time investigating evolution of life on earth and DNA.... and we had a sidetour into the mind and body gallery where me and sanny had the chance to view a tastefully and artfully done tape of sexual reproduction of humans!! hehe, there was like a man and a woman who was kissing and they were having sexual intercourse and there was this weird background music.... erotic even i would say... hehe....and then there was a VERY graphic demo of the ejaculation of sperm (with the sound effect of a very majestic "whooooosh" in the tape i must say) and the formation of the fetus....and pictures of very pregnant women... me and sanny were like grinning all the way through the tape and after it finished, we looked around and we found similar grinning adults standing in a circle attentively watching that very video.... hehe.... didn't see any lecherous old man.. or women for that matter.... (feminism being the debate topic for this HOI term).....
and when we came out of that particular "restricted" section, i saw mummies and daddies reading the sign outisde that section and then they immediately led their very small and tiny children away from that section... it was hilarious hearing this small boy going "mummy, i want to see this section... can i???" and then the mummy went, "oh no darling you need a very special pass to see that..." it was like this adults-only section....

and also the maths lecture where Bell my maths lecturer would emit strange noises at intervals with his "cool maths show" and his Star Wars language....
well....

I'M SO PROUD OF IT MAN!!!
AND MY TEAM MATES ROCK!!!!
yes, it was so darn nerve wrecking but still, when i got up there and did my scary monster of a mother thing, nothing else really mattered and the audience was great and they being there gave me a boost of confidence... yea, the bigger the audience, the scarier it is but hey... i work in mysterious ways man!! hehe....
and have to say a big thank you to my team mates man!! THEY WERE AWESOME!! we didn't miss one word and everything went like clockwork i tell u... and they were even more gret than usual.. more enthu and more serious... and we didn't laugh the whole time AT ALL... hehe, thanks to sujana and his "better be serious arh.. last time already..." he always did grill that into our brains man.... coz everytime during practice, we ALWAYS crack up... but this time, when the audience DID laugh, we didn't... hehe... so thanks sujana....
oh, that's the first group... "the yakuza vs the mafia: the battle" with all the gun scenes complete with dancing choreography too.... yi sheng, tze, bryan, stephan, rachel and michele....
but they are even more bimbotic than me and rachel right?? geez...call yourselves guys somemore... and the two pairs of legs in teh background belong to din's and his mysterious girl.... hehe....
yes, "whose baby is it anyway?" tiok nee (super scandalous martial arts warrior), me and li sher (One of the bad guys in the 3rd performance "whose baby is it anyway?") and not forgetting tiok nee's baby ak doggie... hehe.... the girls are really funny in their drama.... complete with killer moves, great soundtrack and balck heavy eyeliner...
yeap, that's the evil bad guy in the 3rd piece, din; tze and me.... yes, din is ALL READY to strangle tze in his super nice black tank top... tze, you cannot compare to him man... look, he's so buff... and you have a long way to go man....though i must say the super cute mini leather tie is niiiiceeee......
yes, now, tze is admitting defeat to din.... hehe... guys will always be guys...

yes, that's my plumber husband there.. that's our happily-ever-after portrait in the drama... what we wore for our drama... so its our pre drama pose...
but nick is MUCH MUCH cooler than that.. so of course, i will include the post drama pose too... when we changed out of our malu-fying costumes... btw nick is extremely self conscious... even before we took this shot, he had to look into a glass to see whether his reflection was alright and that one drama practice, he came skulking in and wailed that he ahd a bad hair day. and me and rui xi looked and looked and looked and pronounced him still as shuai as ever but NOOOOO.... he INSISTED that he had a BAD HAIR DAY!!! geez... such luck to marry a man like him..hehe
yes, that's nick at his coolest. all black and hair wax....
and not forgetting nell who is my youngest cutest son who loves football... but in real life, nell doesn't play sports at all so sujana had to coach him like for soooo long to get his part right... poor sujana and poor nell... but i must say that he's great coz he made the audience laughed like mad with his footballer impersonation and nell had to endure the pain of getting carpet burn on his healing knee... poor guy... nvm.. the huge plaster that i give you will help..heh... thanks for everything and for the brilliant ideas that you gave.... it was great to work with u...
and of course, not forgetting RUI XI!!! the grandmother of the family who wants to get control over the family... she's so sweeet and cute but she managed to do this grandmother who is quite the conniving lady and manipulates her way through.... thanks for everything girl!!! we all love u loads, especially your son...hehe... i think nick prefers you to me loh... darn it...hehe...
that's rui xi with her white ah-ma hair.... doesn't she look grandmotherly??
and to tze meng: hugsie!! thanks for the music and stuff.. you did great and right on time too... and you were hot on the dance floor too with your moves and groove.... especially the last part... walau eh!! so shocking man!!hee....
yep, that's him and his super cute mini tie, looking darn glam and me at most mature look... skirt and ruffles for the mother....
and here's the rest of the pictures of the other groups... i'm so lucky to have a drama class that is really sporting and the people are so funny and stuff... real easy to work with them...
yes, that's my whole family... a happy portrait....
that's the whole gang here with stephan...in our drama stage... stephan has like one gold hoops in each ear, very pirate-ish.... tze meng said that he looks very actor-ish....hehe... go get your own gold hoops then, tze....
nick, tze and me...
me and chandra... i think the baby is yours chandra... he really does have YOUR eyes.. and i think that you fight better than your rival...hehe... very nice guy...
the whole gang in acting mode with stephan... our mentor.... he gave lotsa ideas...
oh, that's the first group... "the yakuza vs the mafia: the battle" with all the gun scenes complete with dancing choreography too.... yi sheng, tze, bryan, stephan, rachel and michele....
me and rachel, the japenese yakuza head... hehe... she's darn funny... very bimbotic poses i know
but they are even more bimbotic than me and rachel right?? geez...call yourselves guys somemore... and the two pairs of legs in teh background belong to din's and his mysterious girl.... hehe....
yes, "whose baby is it anyway?" tiok nee (super scandalous martial arts warrior), me and li sher (One of the bad guys in the 3rd performance "whose baby is it anyway?") and not forgetting tiok nee's baby ak doggie... hehe.... the girls are really funny in their drama.... complete with killer moves, great soundtrack and balck heavy eyeliner...
yeap, that's the evil bad guy in the 3rd piece, din; tze and me.... yes, din is ALL READY to strangle tze in his super nice black tank top... tze, you cannot compare to him man... look, he's so buff... and you have a long way to go man....though i must say the super cute mini leather tie is niiiiceeee......
yes, now, tze is admitting defeat to din.... hehe... guys will always be guys...

*screams*
breathe in breathe out... freaking out is not gonna help mel....
i hope people like our drama man... coz ours is so darn serious!! not likt tze meng's and tiok nee's ones... theirs are hilarious man!! can laugh till cry.... but ours is like *frowns* serious all the way coz we wanted to send the message that we should accept our family members for who they are and that the obsession for perfection wil cause the break up of our family. and yes, i'm the super control freak, super perfectionist mother who is so darn aggresive who later has a super break down... and nicholas is my poor hen-pecked husband....hehe... but at the end, he is like ultra scary with his shouting... i always jumped whenever he shouts even in practice.... and sujana is soooo funny man.... and nell is...well, nell.... he's teh cute guy in the drama.... my youngest son... and last but not least, rui xi is the cunning grandmother who wants power of the family....
well, it surely does SOUND serious in my blog....
well here goes man.... tomorrow....

drama...
so these few days have been busy practicising my drama group devised performance and let me tell you that just 2 hours of acting can make my energy level go kaput... and when i get home, all i can do is just turn on the shower and just bathe and then check my email and then do 2 to 3 maths questions and then stoned.....geez.... didn't think that it would be THAT tiring man.... but i must say that my group rocks man... they are really great people and really enjoy working with them.... luckily, i got quite a good-to-work-with group and we all think on the same wavelength so hopefully, it will go allright... and hopefully, my tears can come out on that day man....

date dress style?? HUH??
| Your Style is Sassy |
 |
onto happier things...hee...
i never did know that they had such tests to gauge your DATE DRESS STYLE too!!
sassy.... i like....hehe... not sure whether this is accurate or not man...
i never did like...
there a few types of people that i never did like...
1) the really demanding ones... (can't you just freaking be contented with what i can give you? coz if i do it your way, something's bound to go wrong.)
2) the really obnoxious, i'm-so-talented ones... (We know that you are talented but there's no reason to BROADCAST it... subtlety and modesty is the KEY!!)
3) the really ungrateful ones... (Those who do not even acknowledge my help is NO LONGER on my "to help" list....)
last of all...
4) the ones that think that they are being funny and having the time of their lives at the expense of others... (just because you are happy and having fun, it doesn't mean that others are... be considerate and think of others. people have feelings and emotions too. and think of the consequences please... put yourself in that person's shoes, for goodness sake!!)
i put up with them but one day, i might blow...

C-L-U-B-B-I-N-G!!!
oh gosh, my clothes and hair stink of cigarrette smoke last night man....
nah, didn't start smoking lah.... i never did like people who smoked anyway...
but yea, i went to a club-cum-bar yesterday night till 3m in the morning.... hee... had a great time man...danced till my legs hurt this morning. and the music was like still pounding in my head man...but the songs were really cool and the whole place was super happening man... it was an event specially organised for trinity students at Hush Bar in Melb Central but there outsiders there still...
and saw so many trinity people there man. and my collegemates who i never thought i would see them clubbing were there tossing back alchohol like H2O.... geez, it was like a different world for me but still now, i know why clubbing is so addictive. it makes you want to club even more. it's like never enough. you just want to keep on dancing and drinking till the closing time. your friends are around you, they are laughing, you are joking around, talking and the music blaring in your ears. and everyone so glammed up for a change. and suddenly, the music changes and this really cool song comes on and you drag your friends to the dancefloor and danced your way through every song.... it's so darn H-I-G-H.....
and not to mention, the amount of people watching i indulged in when i was resting from dancing and drinking. couples were all over each other. girls in their short skirts and skimpy tops dirty dancing with guys they barely knew.
hehe... new experience for mel man... and the drinks there were nice and fruity... quite low in alchohol content so was sober... but had to be coz had to look after some people....
and guys were coming up to us, me and my girl friends, to dance with us and buy drinks for us... hehe.. but we just ignored them. it was like a girls' night out and stuff and we had a great time dancing with each other so what the heck. and the guys looked kinda creepy and dodgy too. this guy even pulled me to dance with him and i stopped, stared at him then walked back to my friends. and he wasn't like the first man. geez... i don't mind dancing with guys that i know but definitely not guys that i don't know. coz the next min, i saw that particular guy dancing with this young girl and had his hands all over her....
so all in all... it was a fun night out and tiana, you owe me one ya??? hehe....
XOXO mel who just had her first clubbing night....

old times sake...
omigosh... am still darn surprised by everything that has been going on back in m'sia man.....
1st, ai chen is going to take her balck belt.... hee, never in my wildest dreams would i think that she would go on training till so long, not to mention, hold on to it for soooo long. i still remember her saying that since me and yi xian gone already, she would prob quit it, in fact she said she'd DEFINITELY quit!! hehe, now she's gonna be a black belt like me.... oh gosh, this is so surreal...
2nd, xin nee just has her 1st boyfriend. still don't know who the lucky guy is but he better know that with us girls by xin nee's side, he better not mess with her.
3rd, all my primary and sec school friends are getting together, as in in a relationship!! geez, it makes me feel so old. no specific reason, but it just makes me feel like i'm 60 going on 70 or something like that. maybe i'm still clinging on to that image of all of us being in secondary school, playing and laughing our way through life. but now, we're like young adults with our university courses in front of us, careers to think about, new friends to get used to and in some cases (actually it's most cases) my friends have special people that they can relate.... this just makes me more nolstalgic about the past....
but as my HOI essay question says about futurism, it's no use dwelling on the past. the preent and future is more worth your time and effort.
heck, i just miss the old times man...
but i'm not going to trade my college year to relive secondary school again... coz i enjoy my time here in melb...
i guess life just goes on whether you want it or not....
and time is ticking... so i'd better get back to my HOI essay....

well, a girl know when she's wrong about something and she's not afraid to admit it....
hehe, yep, i've been wrong about our drama going down the drain... in fact, i think we accomplished quite a lot in 1 and a half hours.... well, we did a lot of playing (stephan always say we have to play warm up games... so sujana here goes, "es ca do es ca do..." yep, suj, the game was pretty lame but still, it's been pretty cool to see rui xi been whacked by you... and rui xi, i know it's so not fair right??hee...) , planning and a fair bit of teasing each other....hehe....
we all have our roles and i get to play the domineering mother and nicholas is my poor husband and i have two sons... suj and nell... and nell, next time eat dinner before you come lah..... tell you so may times already lah....hehe next time i buy fries for you lah....nell's this guy from macau and he's really nice and darn talkative... always teasing my chinese.... and rui xi... sweet, cute rui xi is the grandmother...
then after talking about the roles for a few minutes, we realise that rui xi who's the absolute youngest (bday being in november and going on 17) is playing the oldest character and nell who is like 20 is the younger son....hehe... irony man....
still , i must say my drama group rocks.... yes, even sujana and his imaginary girlfriend, isabelle.... they are such funny people....

peace rally....
met up with maddie, jasmine, pooja and crystal for "choc by the bald man"... yes, that's melbournian slang for max brenner's... and i got souffle which was awesome yet again and never ceases to amaze me with the rich texture....
then as we were walking out, there was this peace rally thing for palestinians, israelis and nuclear power... something like that.... and maddie, being the human rights activist out of all of us, stooped to talk to some of the people and we ended up staying at the rally infront of the state... it was really hyped up, i must say... speakers from diff levels of society and there was even more people milling about distributing flyers, talking to people and selling buttons and newsletters and books.... the whole enchilada... so many people passionate about something is really something to see and experience... and this was my 1st time at a peace rally....
but then again, i was thinking and jasmine was saying something along the lines of this: "so what if we organise a peace rally in melb when the suffering is happening in israel or palestine or whatever??" i mean would the politicians really care about what a group of people with placards and microphones are chanting?? would they really change their minds about policies and decisions?? would war stop just because we are chanting "stop the war!! no justice, no peace!!"??? or is it about the emotional support that the demonstrators are showing??? or to garner more attention from the media??? but can the media really influence what the top people are thinking and doing??
i guess i'm much too under informed and young to know how rallies work... but i must say that i have to admire their passion, courage and determination for doing what they are doing....they do it oh-so-tirelessly and without losing steam.... for going up to random people and talking about topics taht are sensitive to some....
well, i guess people do what they believe is right and they do all that they can to live life to the fullest. if they think that doing this peace rally thing is their thing, then go ahead.. after all, tehy aren't hurting anybody... it's a PEACE RALLY.... and it IS a free world.... anyone is free to express their beliefs and opinions and passions...
if they don't cross the boundaries that is....
souvenirs from the rally.... and yes, pooja, i'm a green person.. i can recycle all these flyers....hehe
i got all these from the millions of people who came up and talked to me about the war....
women for palestine... i love the flower emblem on the flyer.... it's so pure and... so fragile...

PQA....
just had my PQA, this med admission test into uni of adelaide...
and omg, it was so darn funny, the questions....
they ask questions like whether children crying is a sign that something is wrong or whether it's just their need for attention and you should just ignore them...
and they ask like whether you're a leader in your group... so of course, you would say yes lah... that's like standard lies to get through to the next stage... classic lie i would say....
and the Mel that i put down on the answer sheet is a bit unlike the Mel that's me... honestly, they are never even honest to goodness answers.. just some make up answers to make yourself look good or something.... it's kinda pathetic that you have to resort to something like that to get into medc... but then again, the next stage would be much much much much tougher... it's the dreaded interview and i have to go all the way to adelaide for THAT.... sigh..... worth it???
hmmmm... and just had donuts from that small shop in melb central... it used to be soooo good, but now it just tastes dodgy and kinda yucky....sigh, there goes my fave donuts....
now, am off to the gym to work off all those extra calories....hehe.... luckily i had two only, the jam and nutella one and qiqi had the other 4 and she treated me... probably because she finished like two rows of my lovely lovely lovely cadbury milk choc yesterday night and took up my beauty sleeeep hours....hehe.... and i had to practically drag her out the door from albert house on the phone to the PQA thingy coz she still happily eating her lunch....hehe... you owe me lots, qi...

I'll Be
I've always love this song as it brings back fond memories of the past that i can never get back anymore.
But i'm not regretting the choice i made. in fact, i'm darn proud that i had the courage to do it. it's not entirely for myself, though it is a large part of it...
i guess life goes on... and i'm loving every day of it.
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
I'll Be love suicide
I'll Be better when I'm older
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive and not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
I'll Be love suicide
I'll Be better when I'm older
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on, remembered the things you said
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
I'll Be love suicide
I'll Be better when I'm older
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
