It’s been ages since I last updated this… meh. Exams are finally over and after days of staying up late, studying, it’s great to finally be able to relax and laze around! It’s hard to believe yet another year is almost over.
If things go well, my sister and I will be back in Malaysia by the 16th of December. I can’t wait to go home; being away for a year sucks but I guess it’s great that we’ve only got a little more than a month to go. As much as I hate it, I’ve to sit for my full license test soon. It’s yucky to do a test (one hour! yeesh) after slaving through exams but looks like it’s better if I get it over and done with.
Tales Of The Abyss is finally out in the US! Granted, the graphics aren’t that great but I can’t wait to play it anyway. Final Fantasy XII is out too; amazing to think the series has gone this far already eh.
My sister and I are currently obssessed over Fullmetal Alchemist. Not bad for an anime, but the manga seems to be way better.
Laters!

So I’ve been quite a blog monster lately… I’m just bored… Nyeh… The Physics and Math tests are finally over; now I’ve just got Engineering this Thursday! It’s a 10-question multichoice thing… Hopefully it won’t be very bad but when I saw the past tests… 0_0
Thinking up food to cook for dinner is always so hassling, but I’ve decided to maybe have some chicken cordon bleu tomorrow, yum. It’ll take some time to prepare but I reckon it’s all worth it cuz it’s just so yummy!!! XD XD Crumbed, golden-brown chicken breasts filled with overflowing cheese and ham (plus maybe some other random stuff I’ll chuck in?!?!)… Need I say more…?
Xenosaga Episode III is finally out! Well, it’s been around for a couple of weeks, I think. It looks really good; they made KOS-MOS cool again! I swear, she looked and sounded so terrible in Ep. II… It’s such a relief that the same voice actor from Ep. I will be playing her again.
Exactly 30 days til Tales Of The Abyss is released in the States! (Unless they delay it?!?! >_<)

It’s Father’s Day here today, and also Soon Yie’s birthday! We got her the carrot cake she wanted so much; it was pretty good, but the lemon icing’s a little too sweet for my taste. Anyway, Margaret, our flatmate, got her some drawing kits– a couple of sketch pads, pencils, etc… Well the presents are supposed to be from the both of us… (I really should pay her back soon…!!)
Term 4 of uni starts tomorrow and I’ve got a Physics test in the evening!! >_< What a mundane life I lead… Can’t wait to go back in December… I miss ol’ Kaiser and everyone else (not to mention the food?!) This term is going to be busier than usual, with all the tests and exams coming up.
The weather’s getting warmer these days and I must say it’s easier leaving the clothes to dry outside than using the dryer. Winter’s technically over; we didn’t get much snow this year, which is quite a shame.
Approximately 39 days til Tales Of The Abyss is released in the States! *crazed hungry look*

Yay, I’m on study break now… Have been for a week already, actually, and I’ve been doing Physics for 6 bloody days. Term 2 of the semester is always the busiest, and I’ve still got to study Math and Engineering! It’s nice being able to sleep in and wake up at 2 in the afternoon, though, and it’s nice being able to bake yummy sultana scones for breakfast (granted, the ones I baked just now turned out like uncooked batter but hey… XD)
It’s Soon Yie’s birthday this coming Sunday! We’ve ordered a carrot cake for her already… I’m actually quite surprised she didn’t prefer a chocolate cake but apparently she liked the carrot one our flatmate got for her last year. She’ll be able to get her learner’s license next year already, and come to think of it I can get my full after next week…!
Tales of the Abyss is set to be released in English on the 10th of October; I’m SO looking forward to that. I’ve actually got a month holiday between the end of my exams and the time we go back home, and I’ve been thinking of maybe volunteering at the SPCA. Hopefully that turns out alright!=D
Laterz.

Man it’s been ages since I updated this but I guess it doesn’t really matter… XD XD I’m supposed to be cutting broccoli for dinner but… got side-tracked… We’re having roast chicken tonight and I popped the chicken into the oven anyway even though it was still slightly frozen… Hmm, wonder whether it’ll come out okay..???
Ok talking about frozen roast chicken suddenly was quite random… =P I can finally breathe a sigh of relief! The 1st semester of Uni is over and half of my exams are done too. I had been worrying about my Biology results but they turned out surprisingly well… yay for that… Damn bio complexes…
… …
… My flatmate just came back and so I rushed to cut the broccoli…
Anyway… I’m back in uni for the 2nd semester… Boring lectures as usual… I want Christmas to come… Usually my sister and I would have been back in Seremban a couple of weeks ago… Not having good chinese food for a year is hard….!!!
I’ve been playing Tales of Legendia recently; such a hilarious game. Now my object of obsession is Tales of the Abyss… So unhealthy…?! Whatever.

It’s 2.30AM but I felt like posting… =P I’m staying up to finish studying for Math cuz we’ve got a test next Tuesday! I think it’s worth 30% of our final mark… There’s also an Engineering Mechanics Test on Thursday (Horrors!) and I haven’t started studying for that one yet… XD Hopefully I’ll be able to get it done during the weekend.
Term 1 holidays ended on Friday and since I’m well into the uni year already, I must admit I really miss high school! Uni lecturers can be sooooooooooooooo boring… >_< I miss the teachers back in school but then again, I really enjoy the freedom we have in uni as well.
Got the results for the Bio test I sat a few weeks ago; 62.93%! Ahhh~~ That’s a B-, but I guess I’m quite glad I passed since I absolutely hate Bio and studying for it was SO hard and annoying… >_< and the test was a bitch… On the other hand, the Chem test I had last Monday was ok so hopefully things go well for that one.
It’s starting to get cold here; we’ve been having highs of 14-15 degrees these days. It’s especially uncomfortable at night and early in the morning! Brr… Thank God for heaters! ^_^
Mum and Dad will be coming in about 3 weeks’ time – can’t wait to see them again! Laterz.

I know it’s been ages since I last posted; just didn’t have the mood to write anything! My sister and I have been on a renting spree for a couple of weeks now. =D We’ve been renting movies and I must say it’s so much cheaper than going to the cinema… here, at least… XD I managed to watch The Notebook–such a sweet film!! I love it to bits. At first I thought it was gonna be a cheesy teen flick but it turned out really sweet and sad…
We rented Underworld too… Awesome movie! Once again I thought it was going to be a cheesy movie after reading some of the reviews online, but I reckon it was really really good! The plot was just fantastic and Kate Beckinsale was awe-some… and that other guy… so hot… XD (Never trust online reviews ever again!) I went to the cinema to watch the sequel yesterday and it rocked! =D I’m in such a good mood now…
Well uni life has been really tiring and annoying at times, but it’s great to have so much freedom. I’m on holiday now… study break, technically, since term 2 is gonna be full of tests. Can’t believe 7 weeks of uni have already passed! My parents will be coming over at the end of May; can’t wait to see them again!
I’ve to do heaps of studying this 3-weeks, but nowadays the only thing I do is slack off. =P Better get the momentum going soon, I guess! Laterz.

Can’t believe I’m back in NZ again! Reckon the weeks just flew by! It’s summer here but it’s been pretty gloomy and wet for a few days, though it’s sunny today. Don’t remember summer ever being rainy but things were pretty yucky for a while.
I’ve not done much since I arrived last Wednesday. Been sleeping a lot… =P Probably due to jetlag? Hehe, I dunno… maybe that’s just an excuse… Uni’s gonna start in about 2 weeks’ time; not looking forward to that! But a part of me’s excited as well… =D
Kinda weird not going back to school. I’m missing all my teachers and old friends. But I guess the thing I miss most is old Gil, the pup we’re still having at home! =P We gave Potch away to my brother’s friend (hope she’s doing good!) but Gil is just SOOOOOO cute….. >_<
Nothing much to write eh. Laterz.

It’s been ages since I updated. =P I can’t believe I’ve got about one more week left in Malaysia! It’s really amazing how time flies, and I’m really pleased we’re able to stay for CNY since we missed it last year. I’m not looking forward to Uni, though… That’s definitely gonna be scary… =P
Buffy, the female stray we take care of, gave birth to puppies a few weeks ago. Apparently there were 6 of them but 4 died, and the remaining 2 are in good shape now. They’re SOOOOO cute!!! They’re both females too and my sis and I named them Potch and Gil, after the currencies from 2 videogames… =P Haha, they sound really weird but what the hell… I’ve no idea what we’re gonna do to them, but we’ll probably give them to the SPCA or something.
My exam results are coming out in a few days’ time; I’m quite dreading that! >_<
Owww… my stomach hurts… =P Laterz.

I’m finally home in Seremban! Well, it’s kinda late for me to be saying that since I arrived from Singapore last Tuesday, but I haven’t been in the mood to update my blog. I managed to meet up with Chuckie in Singapore and it was really good to see her again. She seems really well.
Today, I went out with Josephine for a light meal and followed her around when she was doing some Christmas shopping, which was quite amusing since her family had already ‘placed their orders’. =P It was great to talk to her and we kinda bumped into Dinisa when we were at Secret Recipe in Jusco S2. Turns out she’s working part time there. I’m hoping to meet up with most of my friends next week. Christine has been and will be pretty busy these couple of days, so I probably won’t bother her that much eh.
My Mum, sister and I watched The Chronicles Of Narnia yesterday and it was a pretty good movie! I enjoyed it, although my brother actually said it was the first movie he watched that made him want to leave the cinema halfway through. =P Maybe it’s a guy thing? XD
I’m adjusting well to the weather (or so I think! =P) but apparently the weather back in Christchurch is getting warmer and warmer! I suppose I’m quite relieved that I won’t be there for summer since it’s probably gonna be hotter there.It must be kinda weird celebrating Christmas in summer, but then again, most Kiwis have never experienced a white Christmas before, I guess!
Tomorrow, my dad is planning on bringing us out for a BBQ at Royal Adelphi. Hope it’s not gonna disappoint! Laterz.
