first off i'd like to give a massive hello to one of my blog readers, sarah lee! your big brother joel is a really great guy (which i bet you already know by now :D) and talks about you and sandra like crazy ;D i don't think i could have survived these past months away from home without him. he misses you guys loads and i apologise in advance if anything i say or HAVE said publicises his weirdness for all to see... ;p
also a shout out goes to ANOTHER sarah... my 16-year-old cousin-a.k.a-other part of my brain has come down with chicken pox! so if you've managed to prop yourself up to your laptop to read this... just know that i REALLY REALLY hope you get well soon! i'm praying for you! and rest please! hug hug :D
okay so... been a little while since i last wrote up. not that i haven't had much to say... trust me... i have LOTS to write about. but with trinity winding down, time hasn't exactly been kind to us all. never thought i would say it... but i'm going to miss it . the teachers. the classes. the hours. everything :( but to quote one tree hill, "every great song has an ending... but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the music" ;p so i'm taking everyone's advise and just going with it. enjoying every second i have left before the real world beckons.
mom and hafiz, along with uncle mel, auntie peng, sarah and sophie came done to melbourne 2 weeks ago and spent raya with me and ridwan. it was nice NOT to have to spend my first raya away from home alone. i moved to toorak for the week so i could stay with mom and fiz... at the consequence of being no earlier that 30 mins late for class everyday (stupid toorak road traffic!). mom cooked up a storm and we had a open house on tuesday. though i miss kl-raya like crazy, it was great to not miss out. jacq, joel, kevin, mark, eugene and allynna came by and had mom's sprawling menu of roti jala, rendang, brownies, etc. lesley allen (the lady who recruited me to trinity ;D) came too! so yeah people... i raya-ed! ;D sadly, my family had to leave on friday (on mom's birthday no less!)... but they're coming back for my graduation, so all's good :D
let's see... prom is on friday! after months of worrying about it and getting all excited, it's finally here! my dress is hanging in my cupboard. the makeup has been all picked out. and i've finally figured out what 'trimmings' to get kevin ;p but all the hype aside, i know prom is our final celebration. for after the glamour, dancing and laughing, the evil face of finals shines above us. truly the deciding moment of our futures. either we make it. or we don't. and for the life of me, i DO NOT want to be in the second category! so after prom and our make-shift after party (on my rooftop with ice cream and hot chocolate watching the sunrise in our suits and dresses ;p) and joel's birthday the next day, books will once more be my best friends... and scruffy too :D!
since loosing my necklace, my focus has been all over the place. my mind's been playing all kinds of tricks on me! weird stuff pop into my head at awkward moments... things i don't want to think about the MOST become the things that occupy the MOST headspace... argh! i don't have ALOT of headroom to begin with... so girly-unimportant-ridiculous-random thoughts vacate for chemisty, psychology and maths 1 please! QUICKLY!
spring is here... and in typical melbourne fashion, it's freezing outside! though i would be more than happy to walk around in my hoodies and jeans, there will be a photo-op for the graduating february class on thursday. looks like i gotta dig out all the girly tops now :( how annoying is it that it's already 8pm and the sun is still out! someone shoot the people who condone DST!
so yeah, everything's okay. just tired and lethargic as usual. hmmm... tummy hungry but massive pile of dishes sitting in sink... decisions decisions :D
