Back

in sunny Singapore.

Turkey & stuffing

Had my first thanksgiving dinner ever!

No, they don’t celebrate it in Australia. But it’s good to have an American housemate. Hehe.

Singapore: 5 days

Last exam today, and the packing starts. Omg, don’t know where to start or how to pack. Gahhhh…

Surviving Uni 101

Now that summer holidays are edging closer, and we’re all heading home soon, we’re all trying to finish off our food to minimise wastage. Best way to do it? Invite your friends over for dinner or lunch or whatever meal you can think of.

It was lunch at TT’s place, then AA made dinner and we all had it at my place. Before that happened, I went running around pooling ingredients from TT and AA, so that Hills could make us chocolate chip cookies and lemon bars. SO YUMMY! Such things can only be done if everyone stays on-campus, or if everyone stays really, really close to each other. Or if you and your neighbours are pretty good friends. I mean sometimes we’re like, ‘We’re out of eggs, I’ll go ask if AA has some to spare‘ and then I’ll run up to her place to grab some eggs for whatever we were making. Like how I went up to her place 3 times today to get eggs, flour and sugar because we kept finding out we were lacking ingredients for the cookies and lemon bars whilst mixing everything together.

It’s always fun to share food.

But they made fun of my microwave rice cooker

It happened just before midnight

I was in my room, and Hills spotted this bug-cockroach-look-a-like thingy in our bathroom. Grabbed a cup and trapped said bug. Grabbed magazine and proceeded to throw said bug out of the door. I ran to open it while Hills threw it out, then I spotted an earwig trying to get in, suppressed a scream and quickly slammed the door shut but it still got in! Screamed and ran away from door, only to hear Hills scream too because she spotted a spider. Opened door again to throw out 2 millipedes, a beetle thingy, and the earwig that got in. Trapped earwig under cup, slide a magazine underneath and Hills picked it up, but before we could get it close enough to the door, we screamed because it almost got out. And everything just got thrown out of the door. Cup, magazine, bug… everything. And then I screamed for Hills to shut the door before more bugs got in.

Whenever there are bugs, I run screaming to Hills who’ll come armed with the cup. Hahaha.

To the sound of party poppers popping

Happy birthday, Daddy!

(No, not referring to you, JTWW. Hahahaha.)

The parents

I still stand by what I’ve been saying, that you should just shave bald and not keep that little bit of hair where the scar isn’t at. You look damn weird with hair on only one side of your head, please. Hahaha. Ok, hopefully your hair looks better when I get back, Dad.

And yes, I still want to go to Shanghai. Thank you. You said if I go, you’ll bring me to see your friend’s humungous dog. So yes, I still want to see the dog too. I’d like some money for shopping while I’m there as well.

Thanks, Dad! (wink, wink!)

Yes, I know I make a horrible daughter, but too bad! Half my DNA belongs to you. Hahahahaha. I’ll see you soon! Hee.

Happy Pocky Day!

It’s like Valentine’s day, but instead of chocolate, you give each other Pocky instead!

Remember, 11 November (11/11, just like Pocky sticks!) is Pocky day!

Probably one of the interesting things I learn from my Korean classmates while in Shanghai.
