I just realize how utterly dead and abandon my blog is... It's been 3 months + since I last updated this lonely blog... Gosh, I'm such a terrible blogger X) I guess I won't be updating much anymore. I've sorta lost interest in blogging :\ what with assignments, work and homework pilling up in my tedious college life. Tata blog, it has been an incredible 4 years spent with you, updating you, sharing my stories to my beloved friends. Thanks :)
Vynnie, me, Sherenna and Estee
Shopping in Melbourne is sure fun. The clothes here are cute and sweet and it's exactly the same price as Malaysia if you convert it. Though Harbour Town in Docklands is much better. Mom and I went to eat Asian food for dinner on the 20th of feb.
Rice with chicken and egg
My wantan noodle yum~
And Albert House had an amazing race on the 19th of feb. Almost everyone staying in Albert House participated. It was truly an amazing race. My team (Snorlax) came in first -thanks to my leadership- just kidding. We won thanks to every member in the team who participated and initiated in every task we did. We didn't quarrel or bicker but help and throw in our ideas and also work together as a team. So thank you all members which are, Steve, Jasmine, Xiao Wee, Qian Ping, Jia Xiong Joshua and mua.
By the time we reached this side, we were all so exhausted
Last but not least, there's a very good ice-cream here name Freddo's Ice-cream. It'll leave you wanting for more and it''s truly and undeniably better than Hagen Daaze. :)
What more can I say? I'm enjoying life in Albert house, the people here are relatively friendly. I've meet a couple of new people in the dinning hall which is a great start. Ok, I guess I should stop spending my time in my room blogging and go downstairs and socialise with people. Urgh, there're still a lot more things I'm no sure about in the house... I need a tour of this place XD
The place was pack filled with people!
After that, we went to Ikea to buy more supplies for my room and they dropped me back to Albert House. I took a short nap and got ready to go jogging. Despite being 5.30p.m, the sun was still glaringly hot and starring down at me. I didn't care and just jogged in the park near my house. It was quite a good work out, I didn't know time flew so fast until I glanced at my watch and it was 6.35p.m. So I walked briskly back to Albert House and changed for dinner with my family.
We ate pecking duck and mostly chinese food for dinner at Pacific Seafood Restaurant. XD Don't ask me why, my dad has a craving for chinese food despite it being only the second day...
The rice came in a bucket :D
My sister's a dish! :D
The airplane food my sister and I had, mom and dad had satay and some other luxurious food as there were sitting business class
Our dinner on the first day of Melbourne :D I MISS 24/7 MAMAK STALLS!
One moment it was bright, then sunset...
And pitch black when we touched down Melbourne

Us single non-married teenagers and children waited anxiously for ur red packets of ang paus from the adults. After the delicious and luscious breakfast, my cousins, aunties, uncles and I gambled. We payed Black Jack with the poker cards. I managed to nabbed about Rm12!!! woohoo!
Before we know it, it was time for lunch. After lunch, my cousins and I went to 1U to watch Homecoming. And man! People these days sure don't leave PJ anymore as they do it the previous years. 1U was jam packed with people! They were all congregating at the cinema and the lane was snake like longer than public holidays. Fortunately, we managed to grab the last few tickets for Homecoming. That show was sure entertaining. We went back to grandma's house after the movie and ate dinner. Yes, I didn't shower the entire day until I went back.
And 2nd day of chinese new year was the same. Woke up, ate breakfast at grandma's house again. The roaring lion came into the house and perform. The little kids were all angst when they were waiting for the lion to come. When the lion arrived, they stared at the performance with glee in their eyes and saccharin smiles. My little cousin hit the lion's ass X)
Then, we went to visit our relatives. We only went to one relative house this year. After the visit, we went back to grandma's house and gamble some more. We gambled with jimramie this time. I lost to my cousin!!! We ended the game around 5.20p.m and went back. I got a chance to drive my cousin's car for the FIRST time :D We went for dinner at Unique.
After :D
Chicken
and of course more desserts! There was shark fin soup as well, unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of that as well
The ambiance there was so lively, jubilant and euphoria. There was a karaoke set and my aunties sang their hearts out to some of the oldies song. Even my grandma sang a song!!! She sang, yuan liang dai biao wo de xing. My cousins and I enjoyed singing a good few songs of our own. Mostly emo and depressing songs, for some unknown reasons. The little ones enjoyed themselves with chinese new year songs. And we -or I- managed to take a good few pictures. Hmm, maybe that's why I forgot to take some of the pictures...
My cousins :D
Thought I find her annoying, she's still cute
The night ended with me following my cousin back to grandma's house where we gambled some more with Jimramie. I'm currently feeling crestfallen as I lost the money that I won the day before... Urgh, life's unfair.
