Buying things

I bought a few things last week :)

Firstly, I got myself a new pair of shoes, just plain black ballet flats and bought a new shower puff, it was a complete impulse buy as my one now is still good but it’s got little sponges in it. How cute!

And I got a whole bunch of photos printed off, 277 in fact.

This week I have a 2 quizes. One today, Monday, covering all the lecture material (it’s like the midsemester but not during midsemester..weird) and one on thurs for statistics. In less than a month I will be on holidays!

To reward myself for having an exam today, I went to the city and bought myself some poptarts :)

Almost Crunch Time

I completed my last lab of the semester on Tuesday! Last Monday I had my last lab for microbiology and Tuesday was my last biochemistry lab. On Monday, I handed in my report for micro and at about 5:30 ish on Tuesday, I handed in my lab book for biochem and that’s it. Lab work is finished for the semester yay.

Most of my assessments are also over  no more reports at least, a few quizzes to go, have done very well on them so far :) Looking ahead to end of exams is kinda scary :S so much to study ><

My head was attacked by ST the other night. The simple question of ‘can I put your hair in braids?’ was grossly misinterpreted. Ithought it was going to be 2 braids, max. But it turned out to be over 10! Didn’t actually count them. I decided to leave them in and see if my hair would go curly/crimpy this morning, but it failed. Asian hair likes to stay in its natural form; straight haha. The smaller ones kinda had a slight crimpy look to them but for the most part, hair stayed but had added frizz which made it slightly more voluminous than usual but not in a good way. So in conclusion, fail; no curls, frizzy and very underwhelming. Hmmm, I might try it again sometime and leave it in for longer to see if it works better.

I had hot chocolate with Renee on Wednesday. Yummm, hot chocolate made with chocolate, hot chocolate powder and milk and topped with cream. After seeing that list, I should limit having them to once a week.

Nail Polish

About a month ago, 6 of us (my sisters, a few friends and I) made a humungous order for OPI nail polish. We each ordered 10 each :D

It was a bit of a debacle getting them though, once we placed the order, they took ages to come and my sister ended up having to call the supplier chase it up lol.

But loh and behold, last week, they came. Nail polish goodness in all their glass bottled beauty.

So far I have tried 2 colours. At the moment I’m wearing ‘espresso your style’ which is a chocolate- brown metallic. :) and I’m pondering what colour to wear next...bright or dark? Blue, red, pink?... so many options!

It’s cold and raining at the moment and the sun set at around 5 ish. Not very nice to walk to uni this weather especially when it’s dark. I was also breathing smoke today as well, winter is on its way... very early.

Need to Sleep

I am a little sleep deprived at the moment, the additive effect of not having enough on the weekend and not sleeping much during the week has taken its toll. This morning I woke up at 7am (to study/cram) after going to bed at 1am (after studying). Tired! I’m going to have a sleep in tomorrow.

It was ST’s 21st on Saturday and a birthday yum cha on Sunday. I was out most of Saturday day. Firstly, we went to the shops in the morning to buy food and decorations. I then went to Chinatown in the afternoon had lunch with my sister and bought a few things. A nice new photo frame :) and some impulse buy foodstuffs like soy milk.

When I got home, I got ready then started to decorate the place with Renee and Don. Pink was the chosen colour theme so we had pink and white streamers and pink, white and silver balloons. For food, there was mashmallows and nutella (chocolate dip), chips and dip, and crackers with smoked salmon and brie. Yumm

Her aunty got her a chocolate mousse cake that was covered with white fondant with white chocolate slabs surrounding the outside and on top were sugar flowers (none of which were eaten).

The sparklers on the cake set off our smoke alarm (oops) no harm done though as we live in a short building, the fire dept doesn’t get alerted when ours goes off unlike in the taller buildings (that’s what I’m told anyway) After the cake, we went out for the night.

On Sunday morning, the place was cleaned up and I headed off to the city for Yum Cha at Palace Chinese restaurant for AP’s birthday. We all ate SO much that there was little appetite left for dinner haha. Serves us right for being greedy.

Back to business this week with study and such...struggled to get up to make my 9am lab on Monday and had a quiz this morning (hence why I slept late and woke up early) which was yuck. I hope I’ve passed, note to self, the number of lectures isn’t proportional to the number of questions on that topic *sigh* I hate when I’ve focus on certain topics (cos we’ve had the most lectures on that) and then there are minimal questions on it but heaps on another one that only went for about 2 lectures.

Tonight, we went to the Friday Chinatown markets and then to dinner at Chat Thai. The table we got for the 6 of us was a bit too small, cos not all our dishes could fit in the middle of it. But it was ok cos we passed and swapped dishes back and forth. Again, we ate a lot XD but not so much that we felt sick haha. Yummmm, thai food.
