goodbye march, harlow april!

just got home.. so so tired and hungry...going to fry some fish for dinner tonight.. hmm..

been going to sch at 9am everyday to practice since saturday..sometimes really feel so tired and wish to sleep in but has been "encouraging" myself to go.. today, i finally feel that perhaps some of my efforts are paying off..i actually can feel the joints moving... so happy! have been practising on the gals, so their joints are nice and easy to feel.. today i challenged myself to try one of the guys (with very muscular neck) and it took me a while to fiddle through all the muscles.. although ive not mastered it yet, but im sure if i continue to work hard, i will go back better than when i came here in feb.. jia you ruby!

also went grocery shopping today.. cos tmr going to be busy the entire day with research and project work so cant shop.. got to go to freemantle hospital, hopefully wun finish as late as last thurs - took me 2 hrs of travelling time to get home :( then friday is good friday and monday is easter monday.. running out of food at home! got to stock up otherwise i will starve at home.. or only survive on my hidden stash of chocolates.. hehee.. :p thats something i will nv run out! lol.

So i have 7 bananas staring at me on my shelf now.. :p and a bag of chips! hee

Oh yes! let me try this out.. see if i can get pictures published tog with my blog entry.. took some photos of my wonderfully clean kitchen this morning.. :p once the gals are back, will take photos of the messy kitchen for u guys to see and compare.. haha..
(funny, i cant seem to put the photos in the same entry... photos end up on top of my entry instead of at the bottom where i wan them to be.. hmm)

Clean clean kitchen








Picture 1: clean stove, shiny sink and floor! even the rubbish bin looks clean.. :)




Picture: close up of the stove..


Picture 3: no bread crumbs and dunno wat stains..

Headache

Woke up with a headache this morning.. :( always happens when we practise on the neck and yest was neck day..mm..luckily we are going to practise on the back today..
hope my wonder coffee will drive my headache away...

Peaceful night

couldnt connect to the internet for the 3 hours..thought something happened to my modem again. Panic rose to my chest as thoughts about having to go the library for internet again surfaced to my mind..But after much consideration, i finally calmed down and thought maybe it isnt such a bad idea cos i seem to be rather unproductive when the internet seems to be so much more alluring compared to my boring boring notes. :p But the internet came alive again, after my hundredth attempt to connect.. so much for self-control. haha

Its really quiet tonight.. If i switch off my fan and itunes.. the only sounds i hear are my breathing and air particles moving.. seriously. Well, i quite enjoy it. This solitute and peace. A rarity in my household, i must say.. usually at this time, if i am unfortunately still awake, i will hear footsteps, opening/closing of doors, noises from the kitchen etc etc.. from my rather active night owls housemates. but this week, 3 of them are away..heehee. Of cos i miss them..okay 1 of them. But the plus points are just too many to ignore..My kitchen is always clean.. no food remnants in the sink for me to puke over..no dried and coagulated food particles on the stove..no breadcrumbs and god noes wat on the cabinet shelves..no overflowing rubbish and spills on the kitchen floor.. I'm literally in heaven!!! :p i consider myself not very fussy le..but this is too much.. sometimes i end up making sandwiches or eating watever is in the fridge so as to avoid cooking, as i cannot stand the sight of the stove and sink.. :( anyway enough of complaining. i shld just enjoy these 2 wks as much as i can..lol.

alright, i shld slp early..been sleeping late and its wearing me out..must try to be more productive too! watching House is so not going to help me pass my exams loh.. haha but he is so charming in the new season. :p charming but definitely NOT bf/husband/boss material. lol.

mm..think need to try to figure out how to insert pictures into my blog entries..

First month in perth

Would you believe it? i have already been here in perth a month and more. This room that ive been sleeping, resting, stoning in is where i belong..represents my everything here in this country..As i look around it now, from the floor where im sitting typing this entry, there is nothing personal about this room.. No photos, no stickers, no posters.. nothing of that sort that i took pains to decorate my previous abode in melbourne.. Yet i feel comfortable here.. Maybe cos i noe this is only temporary.. When i made my rented apartment like a home in melbourne, it only made me more homesick.. cos its not home.. Or maybe i have just grown older, wiser..

Perth is nothing like what i had expected.. i had expected a quiet, boring city which i was sure i would hate.. well, it is indeed quiet and boring.. but surprisingly, no hatred. :) in fact, i have grown rather fond of this place.. the weather is not as harsh as melbourne, nor as unpredictable.. and i see plenty of green lush grass everywhere.. did i also mention about the trees??
True, the fruits are nowhere as cheap as melbourne, the internet is so slow that i can twiddle my thumbs, the transport drives me nuts everytime..but...im happy..wierd rite??

the moon is really beautiful tonight..
