As days get shorter and shorter and the air gets chillier day by day, the grizzly bear eats as much as it can to gain weight* and gets ready to hibernate throughout the long, cold winter months. *facts may be wrong...consult wikipedia if required
So will my blog (since i m from malaysia, and malaysia is in the northern hemisphere, and it's winter in the northern hemisphere (di zon-zon bermusim) ..., therefore i'll follow winter and shall hibernate as well...i m not making sense here) anyway....
C u in spring! that's like beginning of next year (after my exams, holiday and when i start my life again back in Perth- my blog IS about my life abroad not at home, so i wont blog about it...)
Meanwhile, unless there's sth uber big/ annoying/ penuh stres stressful/ veryvery^7.9 interesting/ blogworthy or those i-m-too-bored-to-do-anything-else moments that arises during my hibernation, there shant be any update... (u still can like check my blog every month...)
Thank you's to everyone who reads my blog all this while (like going into apoptosis like that) and see you next year (if i m continuing to blog.....
...i will, i hope)
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri kepada para muslimin dan musliman...!!!
Today was just like every other day and just like every other day in winter, it rained. Well it wasn’t really a normal every other day, it was totally unlike every other day. Ok well, suffice to say some parts were just like every other day and some weren’t really like every other day. LOL.
Had a quiz and last-minute studied for it, so was really sleepy before I left the house. Had two dose of this song:
Was late for class…worse still, my class wasn’t in uni campus and had to walk a bit…under the rain…{-_-}
Made a mistake in the quiz (I bet there were plenty other mistakes)
Had a lab, which made me depressed…handed one of my best cavity prep and got 43/55 (I know that’s not bad, but I was hoping 44)…the only comment was: a bit too deep…wth only 0.5mm too deep!!!!! (well, I suppose that’s quite a lot in a tooth)…the rest of the lab I was like: no care anymore-lah like simply drill la….zeeeeeeeeee…which still took me forever for me to make a ‘cincai’ one...sigh, lol
Utterly energyless during lunch time, sat in the common room and watched my friends played table tennis (amazingly the ball didn’t me today…hmmmm)
Had a super ______ lecture…I was like so sleepy and the lecturer was going on and on about baby teeth: (in indian accent at light speed) on labial side of the mandibular central incisor, there is no developmental groove but the crown is still substantially wider compared to the length as you can see. The root is heavy , long, evenly pointed and twice the length of the crown. Yes twice the length. That’s a lot. On the labial side you have the marginal ridge. Can you see it there? And like all the deciduous anterior teeth there’s a lingual convergence. The tooth tapers lingually. You should also notice that there’s a greater curvature of the cervical line on the mesial side than the distal side. While you get a developmental depression of the mesial side of the root on a primary maxillary central incisor, there’s a developmental depression of the distal side of the root of the mandibular central incisor. That’s how you can differentiate between a mandibular central incisor and a maxillary central incisor. You all understand? (pause) Can I move on to the mandibular lateral incisor now? (someone shouts ‘YES’) And I was still like ‘labial. Is THAT side, what about it again?’ Yes those lectures are freaky. I need to know every surface of all the teeth in your mouth (all 32x5=160) plus primary teeth (all 20x5=100) FOR EXAM !!! (well ok actually just 130 altogether since they are just mirror images)…>>>>>_________<<<<<
And I went home after the lecture…slept two hours had a so-so dinner and here I m blogging.
Hmmmm…apparently a lot of people had a bad day today…not really your every-other-day day, is it...well tomoro will be better..

Cost of losing ur wallet: every bank card u hv inside- $15 transperth card- $5 student card- $16 inconvenience- priceless finding it back after replacing everything - useless (to some extend but still good) 谢天!
Dunno wat to do now…jus finished work (I suppose I should be sleeping) super sien can? Exam’s coming as in comING….noooooooo Seriously lah sien ok? Tomoro got mcw meeting…
Just feel like lying on the bed and just go to sleep while leaving everything on (music, lights)..but still hv to brush teeth (sigh..)
MCW that we’ve been planning for so long hv finally arrived…do come ppl if u can
Details:
Opening ceremony on Tuesday (2/10)12pm in UWA Guild courtyard Talent Night on Wednesday (3/10) 7pm? in Utopia Spring Feast on Thursday (4/10) 7pm? in UWA Guild courtyard Movie Night on Friday (5/10) 6pm? in UWA LTs
全世界不庆祝,独我庆祝也罢。I told myself… Ppl say no atmosphere to celebrate it. It’s not the surrounding which matters( in my case all angmohs (who obviously don’t celebrate it)) but yourself. If you make it special, then it will be special. Anyway it was nothing special – no feeling of 中秋节 until some frens sent sms wishes…started to hv the feeling of CNY, the festive mood where everyone celebrates it together. So dat day, I brought 2 mooncakes to uni to share (I bought four from northbridge- cost me $20 if not mistaken),…so caring rite?or mayb jus the festive mood got the better of me.
After uni, went home to start cooking. I planned my dinner like two days before.
Menu of the day: 杂菜,姜片冬菇酒鸡,叉烧+烧肉 (Mixed vege, chicken+mushroom+ginger+wine, pork), just like how my mom would make for festives. Reminds me of home..sobs sobs…food was nice, but I cooked a bit too much, so ate the same thing for two/three meals.
Went to state MCW (multicultural week) on Friday. Well, this event was actually to officially open the MCWs of all the unis in WA. It was nothing much, but I suppose it was meant to be just an opening ceremony. The highlight of the event was (for me) the cultural dress parade led by the Brazilian Carnival drummers. Oh and the title was the theme of this launch.
chinese ochestra
brazilian carnival drummer
And there was several awards given out.
After that there was the Irish Riverdance performance. Quite amazing. They really need a lot of strength to dance and you can really see them breathing quite heavily. Go youtube or sth to see samples.
And after that, after much self-encouragement and persuasion, I finally had the courage to ask random people (and some not so random people) to let me take a photo of their cultural costume that they are wearing. Eh, not easy k. I have to sort of stress that it’s the costume I want, and not them so as not to sound like a pervert.
And this one, I thought one of them was a cultural dress so I was like ‘so which country is this dress from?’ and she was like ‘oh, this is just a dress’ ‘oh (shit)..*fake laughs…looks cultural though (wth am I saying)…and wat about you?’ points to next person..=.=

Dunno why suddenly today homesick. Not really homesick la, jus bored actually. So I google for random blogs from bintulu (dont ask why). I tried all sort of words, like bintulu, skool names both in Chinese and Malay and even shorten versions of the names, but sadly none came up. The only thing that i found which was interesting was the annual INTERNATIONAL kite festival which was held, I think, one or two weeks ago in bintulu. Yes, we orgonice big stuff can...
And I found this blog. He’s a photographer, wedding photographer to be exact. So cool. Makes you want to get married sooner get a good wedding photographer.
Anyway, cooked this:
Nestum Butter Prawns…
hehe...
Wat? Brag oso cannot meh?
To cook,
Ingredients: Nestum (if you don’t have this you can stop reading this post and get back to whatever you are suppose to be doing like STUDY) (or you can jus substitute it with garlic and cook Garlic Butter Prawn) Prawn Butter Egg Sugar and salt to taste
Prepare the prawn. I bought cooked ones. I think uncooked ones better cause you’ll get more taste in.
don't simply think can...
Heat butter. Fry egg. Make sure you scramble your eggs until it’s very fine. (I still cant figure out how they can make it like coconut shreds)
Pour in Nestum and fry.
Put in prawn and fry until the smell ‘keluar’ (come out). Make sure you cook the prawns well.
Add sugar and salt to taste
Serve.
Cook yourself other dishes.
