Today is officially the last day of my exams! Feel so free now. I spent the afternoon at Mrs Macquaries Chair, it's been so long since I've been there and I thought I deserved a break so I went there to relax.. also took a few photos sitting at my favourite spot, can try to figure out exactly where it is if you know that place well :)
The rest of the pics are here

Just got back from my little weekend getaway at Jervis Bay with a bunch of 11 single people (as Even pointed out) .. lol. Such a beautiful quiet area, we stayed at a holiday house which included a pool table, air hockey and bbq facilities just 1 minute walk away from Nelson's beach. The trip was so relaxing; 2 magnificent chefs, fresh sea breeze, and perfect weather despite the constant rain up in Sydney.

Ben, Leng, my sister & I were the first to arrive at Jervis so we spent the day exploring our nearby beaches, then Ben made a scrumptious 3 course dinner for the girls. The rest of the gang arrived around 1:30am but I was already asleep so I didn't see them till the morning. Spent the saturday at a national park, taking heaps of photos, then explored the lighthouse ruins and spent the rest of the afternoon at Cave Beach. While the others were jumping the waves, I went exploring each of the caves that I found.. quite dark and scary at first but it was so peaceful and relaxing just sitting inside them. Also found 2 lizards while I was climbing large boulders by the sea, gave me such a fright I scrambled down as quick as I could trying not to scrape my bare feet on the pointy rocks >_<. Dinner that night was delicous - Thien made white sauce pasta with 'champagne' and had 2 cakes for dessert. Left for home on Sunday morning.. the holiday went by so quickly, wished we could've stayed longer!

I've uploaded all the photos on my Multiply page, but you need to sign up and be on my contact list before you can view them though. Here are 2 photos, and I've added a few on the photo page, but really recommend that everyone joins Multiply, that's where I'll be keeping all my photos, videos, music, etc :)

So my brother's carbon grey Mazda 3 SP23 (Luxury Leather Pack) has finally arrived today. Beautiful, isn't it? :) Now all we need is my baby Yaris and an extra carport for 2 cars, which our council doesn't allow us to build..

So yesterday I was standing at Central station waiting for my train to arrive. As usual, I was standing on the yellow line just daydreaming and lost in thought. Then some short-ass asian prick walks past me, holding his girlfriend's hand muttering "Move away when you see someone walking, you stupid idiot". All he had to do was take half a step to go around me, or if he was that lazy he could've let go of her hand. Pissed me off, he did. But I kept my mouth shut. I've been told a few times how nasty my sharp tongue can be when I'm angry.. so I've always tried my best to keep my mouth shut in ugly situations. Though that didn't stop the rant going on in my head and my evil glare piercing through his back while he was walking away, wishing he would alight. Haha.. evil person, I am.

Anyway, that prick didn't succeed in ruining the rest of my day. Had fun at bowling! For me, I have no skill in bowling, it only comes down to a matter of luck. Made a high score of 127 in the first game.. and 66 in the 2nd. Very, very bad.. but it's the best I've played in ages! *Scrunches up face*

So exam time begins again.. and I have a habit of tending to my website during exams, instead of studying. So here it is - my newest layout + added some old photos! Big thanks to Jimbo & SoHA for giving me some feedback these past 2 days. Though it didn't turn out as I expected it to.. I wanted to make this version purple but somehow I chose another blue picture. What do you think?

Last Friday, one of the people I work with was surprised when I said I was 20, he thought I was 18! All I did was gape at him - that was the 1st time anyone ever guessed that I was younger than I really am.. except Even, she still says I'm 'under 18' when we go to big people's places >.>

Last night on the train home, there were 2 Indians sitting infront of me kissing non-stop like there was no tomorrow. Not something you see everyday. Good thing I had my headphones on though, else I would have listened to the saliva cooking. But we didn't even reach Petersham when my batteries died! At least they got off early at Ashfield or I would've got up to sit upstairs. By the way, he kisses with his eyes open.. haha how rude. Anyway, added Vannha's cool Mongulation website on my links list.

Was a little bothered last night when I missed my train by just 1 minute and had to wait 10 minutes for the next one. As I got off the train last night at 9:40pm coming home from uni, I walked to the usual corner where I wait for someone to pick me up. Saw at least 20 men standing around there speaking in some mid-Eastern language I didn't understand, with some cops around. Didn't know what happened so I waited across the street for 5 minutes until my brother arrived and drove me home.

So what really happened? Heard the news last night on tv and realised that there was a drive-by at that same corner I was standing at, just 10 minutes earlier around 9:30pm. Apparently, a gunman got out of a black Honda, shot a 19-year old guy in the arm who was just sitting on a bench outside, then proceeded into the cafe and began spraying the room from the ceiling to the floor. One man died instantly when shot in the neck, another was shot in the chest. There are now 4 in the hospital and 1 dead. And to think I was irritated that I missed my train by a minute.. otherwise I would've been standing at that corner at 9:30pm last night.
