OMG I FINALLY GOT MY INTERNET ACCESS UP!!! I'm in the library now because I don't wanna use up my bandwidth limit so yeah, here I am now.. hope you haven't missed me too much yeah? ;)

life's good so far, the weather's here is rather freaky. i mean like it was really hot one day and now its like really cold. almost 16 deg when it was about 36 a few days back! so now i'm kinda freezing my ass off and my fingers are losing their sensation. HAHAH. went down to salamanca today to look see look see with lawrence and his dad. bought 2 headbands and a crazy beanie with funky hair! bought honey and stuff too. tried the tiniest pancakes in town! they were like puny! i mean like probably the size of the aussic 50c coin or something. yeah but it cost like $4.50 but we could choose the sauce we wanted and i took the blueberry and apple one. yummy! seriously, you people should come here and visit me cos the air here is really nice and the water is actually drinkable from the tap unlike other places in australia! bought a windbreaker as well as i was actually really really cold today for like $30 and i think its quite reasonable. hopefully it will keep me warm in winter and i won't actually freeze to death here ( the temp actually drops to like -2!!)

had commencement dinner today and the food was really nice! we had some roast veggies with hummus and funny sauce, hazelnut crusted turkey tenderloin with cranberry sauce and fruit flan with whipped cream and some other funny mango sauce.

its now 9.16pm here and i suppose its just 6.16pm there in singapore.. right? difference of about 3h now that daylight saving hasnt ended. anw, if you guys wanna sms me, its +61405483464 and if you wanna call my room, its +61362217008. if you've got M1, i think you can call me without having to pay idd charges so its just like a normal local call. ;)

rained here yest and today which is kinda rare since it rarely rains in tassie as far as i know. we're like the sunniest place in aussie! and you would have thought it was brisbane/gold coast yeah?

i think most of you would probably wonder how's the food, the people (esp guys) etc. the food's here relatively expensive. we had wanton mee/charsiew mee and it cost me like $8.50!!! went to saigon kitch3n yest and we were set back like $79.90 for 5 people. which i think is actually rather cheap by tassie standards.

and i've been walking bukit timah hill everyday! tassie is like super super hilly and i wonder why can't they like flatten the hills before building the uni or rather hobart! >< omg there's so much to talk about now that i finally got my connection!! alright i shall go day by day.

14/2: yj, sean, bel, pq sent me off and it was really nice seeing them all over again for the last time before i leave for tassie. plane was delayed for an hour to 9.10pm so went in later than i was supposed to. but guess what? we only left at 10.10pm because we were actually waiting for a connecting flight from heathrow! so yeah, there being only 2 hours for my transit to hobart at melbourne, i obviously missed my domestic flight when we arrived there about 7 hours later.

15/2we actually reached melbourne at 8+ when my flight was supposed to leave at 8.35am! dammit. so yeah we went to see if we could be rescheduled onto the next available hobart flight but there were all full so the next available melb-hobart flight would be at 10.30pm! note that its about 10am now. so we decided to take the other option of going up to sydney before actually going back down to hobart. that means we reached hobart at about 4.10pm instead of 9.45am. :( by the time i reached jane, it was about 6pm so we had our late dinner which was like lamb chop with chicken cutlet + cheese on it. :) sounds good yeah? the food at jane is really quite good i must say. thank god they changed the chef this year if not it probably will be as bad as ibs3n had mentioned before. :P

16/2: had registration and mock formal dinner. the blardy gown has SHOULDER PADS! like OMG so gross! so we all look funny and there's nothing we can do about it. had pre-dinner drinks which meant orange juice for me. dinner commenced soon after and i had half a glass of white wine. i realised i cannot drink wine cos i go red really really easily. i can down vodka etc and not go red but wine just does me in. :S had red black white party which i left halfway to go down to woolworths (its just cold storage) to get my toiletries and stuff. walked all the way to jane + we kinda missed the road to turn so we walked further than we had to. :( but we arrived safely in the end. heard that the drunk people kinda broke a window that night along the connecting pathway. HAHA. so not surprised. they drink a lot! during BYO nights, they down 6 cans like its nothing! and they'll continue in someone else's room till they're totally wasted.

nothing interesting really happened in the week apart from playing laser challenge down in town for block party! we had like a base to defend and we had to attack other bases to win. my team was damn funny cos we didn't even know where our base was so we just cheonged and we were attacked like umpteen times. at the end of the first game, we still didn't know where our base was! HAHAHA!!! but we improved throughout the game. hehe i only found our first base (yellow) when we played our last game (we were red) sad sia.. :P but it was really fun! because you can't actually die. you're just out for 10s before you're alive again. at the end of it they will print a scoresheet for you to see how well you've fared. my accuracy improved from 16- 26%! :) if not for my neighbour my accuracy would have been better cos i was just spamming my ammo at his gun to prevent him to actually coming to life again. :)

school's starting next week and im totally packed. i've got a first aid course on 2/3 so i've gotta find my way down. its like international students day cos so many of us signed up for that day. we're chao muggers man! hahah! jkjk elvine was really funny cos he said that they didnt even know that the specimen they showed us was a kidney and they shot him looks of disbelief! HAHA!
