LALALA!

I feel so productive today! J I slept around 2am plus after talking to Mr. Chan using Skype. I love my Skype since my phone provider gives me 4000mins of Skype call free and I can use it via my mobile. My mommy has learnt how to use Skype and she is quite happy because she can save on phone bills. She talks to daddy using MSN and Skype with me. Why am I promoting Skype? Haha. Anyway, I woke up about 10am this morning because I needed to pee badly and I kept waking up in between my sleeps. Took shower, and got ready to go out to city to do register for my IELTS and print some pictures. When I reached the IELTS office, the queue was so long that I figured to go print my pictures first. Nixon called for lunch at the same time, and I thought why not since I have not eaten and needed to kill some time before I go back to the IELTS office. Long story short, I managed to register for the IELTS dated 21 November and second choice of 5 December. Now, I need to study and arrange for my driver's license. Weeeeeeeeeeeee! I can start driving again! But I think I will need some time to get used to the roads here and their rules. In addition, will be driving a slightly bigger car here compared to Malaysia and that is why I need to get use to everything!

Did I even mention in the previous post that I got a job? :P I found a job with the South Australia Jockey Club as a waitress mainly for function and banquet. Luckily, for me that I have previous experience in banqueting with Hyatt back at Perth so this job should not be that challenging for me. The pay? Quite a fair bit, but it's only a casual job so good pay but less shift moreover, I'm only limited to 20 hours a week as a student. So far, I'm only working 1 shift a week but it's better than none at all!

Oh well, I'm feeling hungry now. Gonna reheat my dinner and make 'lap cheong tan with onions'. Oooooo! YUMMY!! Will be back soon J


 

Note: I AM BACK ON TRACK PEOPLE!

GUILTY

Yes, I know I have been missing for quite awhile since my last blog post. Quite a number of things came up, I was troubled, and I just did not have the mood to write up an entry post. I just don't know what to write. Currently, I have been feeling a lot better because I have decided not to resent over some small matter that has been caused by some B**** who called herself a friend to me. PRETENTIOUS! I better not go into the whole emo thing now…

Let's see what has happened during the last 2 hiatus months. In short, I cleared my previous semester and now I'm onto my final semester until I graduate in December. Oh! My sister got engaged too in September. I got a haircut and highlights too. Besides that, I can't really remember what other significant stuff that happened for the last 2 months… memory problem (I'm not joking!). Probably small events which I can't be bothered to type or think.

I got myself 2 new gadgets to replace my old broken ones. I bought a Canon Ixus 100 in black and got an upgrade for my phone. I took the Samsung F480 in 12 month plan, nothing else appeal to me so I decided to take the 1 year plan so I could change in a year! I'm not against the iPhone, although I could have gotten it for free but it just doesn't attract me to get it. I'm all good with the current phone and it's so girly because I got it in PINK! With the whole hands free and leather casing (which I bought separately). Ooo! I baked some cupcakes yesterday as well, ever since I came to Australia I have not baked at all. Plus, Harris Scarfe is such a good place to get all the baking utensils because they are always on sale! I bought a spatula, tray, paper grease cups, all for less than AUD 15. I baked 2 batch because I bought only 1butter and I thought just do a try-out since ingredients here might be slightly different such as the flour (the contents are slightly different as it can be seen when I was creaming the batter), the vanilla essence (the terms of flavor), size of the eggs, and the butter's taste. At the end of it, the cupcakes turned out delicious! I did half with raisins and half plain and gave out to my friends. I will make more the next time when I have more time and butter! I shall end this post with some wonderful pictures of the engagement, my camera, new phone and the cupcakes!

the happy couple. Toby and Yokey

Since this is my blog, I'm allowed to Brag

My boyfriend of 5 years finally lost weight after promising me year after year that he would lose it off. I'm not expecting all bones covered with skin type of boyfriend, just losing the 'baby fats' would do. sorry bout the late updates due to the time i was admitted in the hospital..

my darling graduated and now is a working man!
That's my MAN.. on the left not the right.

weeeeeeeeeeeee... now I can finally live off him! ahahhaha. that was my evil plan *wink* and recently he was asked to do some modelling for his company! we all did not expect that coming.. ahahaha. he's on his company's website too *SOGO*
there are other pics too, but they are all in my FB's album... he does look different from before. a lot of my friends were shocked because he looked different and because I'm not around so they rarely see him. I can't wait to see him in December.. miss him so so much.

note: stop blogging and work on assignment now!

Cute Stylus!

I saw this really cute stylus the other day and told myself that I must own it!!!! but I need 2 2 dollar coins for it.. it is actually from those machine where you must insert coins in exchange for the egg. for as far as I can remember, I never did indulge myself into these machines when I was younger. I would say this is my 1s t egg?? ahahhhahaha. It's only AUD4!!! not that bad.. :) this stylus has a better grip than the original 1 because it's thicker hence easier to hold. just like a pen! and i wanted this star and pink one.. i was so scared that it will be mario or the mushroom which are blue and green respectively. Lucky me

it came in 2 piece which you need to attach it together


TADA! so cute right.

I'm actually not feeling myself lately, I've got no idea why. But getting something for myself did cheer me up a little. I get contented pretty easily.. not sure if it's a good thing a not. Anyhow, I need to do some chores, my room is in a mess!!!

note: clean, clean ,clean... work, work, work!

Ahhhh..it's nice to back to blogging again.

It is nice to be updating myself more on my own blog thesedays.. I've been thinking of getting a new blog for a fresh start.. however, I've got so much memory on this blog.. I think
I might just gonna revamp it! plans have been made on the new layout and I just need the time to sit down and do the design and editing, not much on the real design... no super softwares like the adobe photoshop, just using paint and picasa3 plus my creative mind. I'm thinking about doing something simple yet attractive in a way, though I'm keeping the title WONDERS OF PHUI WAN. anyway, back to the present.

did not sleep much last night cause i was rushing my Law tutorial for today... now I'm having a massive headache!


another thing that i'd like to share would be me appearing on the Uni's website! hahahahaha. this is how i got in there.firstly, someone from the Industrial Placement Department in my Uni suggested me and Lim to the Marketing Manager. i'm not sure about the details, but we soon got an e-mail from them saying that they want to interview us. so they did, and this is the end result. the 2nd thing is that, they have another intention on having the interview with us as well. they want to feature us in a education Magazine that is circulated in Malaysia nationwide in tertiary education institutions. It's call CourseNow/ DoctorJob, something like that.. so we both had to answer some questions and they will pick either me or him... i still do not know the result yet. thirdly, they are going to use us to promote the Uni, Le Cordon Bleu throughout Malaysia during their promotions by the Marketing Manager. last but not least, i was contacted by the Graphic Designer of Le Cordon Bleu to do a photo shoot with them next week! this is for the international promotion or something like that! oh well, it could be me standing behind being a cameo though. not too sure about the details... anyway all this sounds like fun and a good experience. this is a once in a lifetime experience and something that i can brag to my kids about! :) this is the webpage of the Uni.. *Le Cordon Bleu*
oh well, my work load for the coming week is terrible. I've got to hand in a group assignment on Tuesday, Law tutorial on Thursday and CITI Friday. ARRRGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!! i better start on some now!!! maybe i should sleep first then start tomorrow... hehehe.

note: stop procastinating!!! ooo, i need to go to the market tomorrow :)
