note, the time now is 2.49!!! how long has it been since i got home at THIS time?! amazing.

aniwae, ive got so many things on my mind now so much to rant about esp after my long long absence.
im back from TASMANIA! yes i still believe i was crazy to go.

more so when previous tests results came out and..guess WHAT? i failed ALL my tests.geog and econs. econs was expected, just tt i got 11 upon 40?! tt's like 27%!!! and oops! did i just publically announce? ok moving on, i got 4 upon 10 for geog. shocker!! failed my cheena ting xie,hey..i shouldnt start on sucha bad topic the moment i come back! ok i shall lay this off for a while.

TASMANIA! weather there is beautiful!! 14 degrees!! tt's better than air con! i love breathing in the cold air. im not sure what is it, but everytime i find myself in temperate regions, it feels quieter and more peaceful. the cool air makes u feel oh so free!! i dunno how to describe this feeling but its simply awesome. u step out of the airport into the cold air, then u look up to the sky and breath!!!(just ignoring the cold temporarily)an u feel so free!! the environment feels so quiet and at peaceful and the sky is so so blue! justina, u dunno how lucky u are to BE in aussie. cool cool aussie!if only singapore had that cool environment, i'd complain alot less.

saturdae we went to salamanca market, (oh for ur info im not reporting im keying this down for my poor ole memories sake)things there were so so expensive! oh and kids clothes are so cute. so nice. so colourful. pretty.

and food prices in aussie areAZY. $.50 for a plate of whatever food. daylight robbery. suddenly it seemed a cheaper option to eat subway!

sundae, went up to mt wellington. ooh it was cold! but i loved it. maybe i sae tt now, but it was quite agonising up there. but i was telling myself to enjoy every bit of it whatever cos it would only be a living memory in me once i return back to singapore. and it'll be a long long long time till i get to go to cooler countries again cos i think we just ran out of money.
as the cold was eating deeper into our bones, we hurried back into the car. and everyone seated nicely in their seats. as we were defrosting, we started looking around..

mum: Where's my bag? where's the orange bag?? WHERE?
dad: huh?
me: how come theres this extra new handbag next to my feet?
sista: *singing awae as usual* (and she thot i was making a fuss of nothing)

suddenly: OH MY!! we're in the WRONG car!!! get out get out!!!!

we piled back into our own car, double checking to see it was, and then we realised the mess in our car. the previous car was too neat. hehehee. crazy us.

mondae, wanted to drive up to cradle mountain but realised it was too far, so we went to see other look out points

tuesdae, we went to port arthur. ex convict place. went to isle of the dead, the island where they buried all the rich people, the officials.

wednesday, went back to cradle mountain, all geared up to stay over,we spent the night at sheffield. very quiet laid back town.had beef steak for dinner. was quite a treat considering i was getting quite sick of fake chinese food and horrible fish n chips and what not. its still a mystery to me how they actually manage to live their whole lives on those fried junks. now no wonder their size! haha. not tt ive slimmed down tremendously since i came back :P and the bed i slept in had no electric blanket! rather it was spoilt.

on the wae back on thursdae, went to chudleigh honey factory. after that, went to cataract gorge at launceston.hee. halfwae, i was trying to half educate n 3 quarts irritate sis by explaining like a guide on how frost shattering takes place, which i already told her about many times. then i started telling her about the deep weathered regolith, and at the end of it, i end off by saying"actually im not sure la, but its sth like tt. but anywae,u understand right?" :P
then close to evening, by the wae, i mean 5 plus, cos e sun sets at about tt time, stumbled upon chickenfeed. mum wanted to see what was it all about so we went in and came out almost an hour later with plastic bags full of urm..things. well u cant help it with three ladies and when it was a discount store can u? things were going at 2 bucks! i got a lousy slipper at 1 dollar hahaha so i can wear it in tioman. oh! i havent mentioned tioman have i?? -smiles widely- :D of course apart from the slipper i filled the basket with alot of other things. i got my toe socks for 2 bucks. tho the colour's quite yucky. or u can call it weirdly interesting.we ate chicken from woolsworth in the car cos mummy had the craving -.-" hahah then we went to buy instant dinner.felt so good to be back in hobart, sandybay.

fridae, went fishing for daddy's sake at the trout farm. sis n i tried diligently at first, casting our rods in and out, in and out, hoping the -stupider than boy boy- trout would get lured. but then after awhile we realised tt fish could possibly be smarter than hamsters, more directly, boy boy, so we gave up. mummy, claiming she didnt wanna fish, took my rod with the excuse" i wanna try" and ended up catching fish. grr. then she happily disappeared with dad to some other pond to 'get bigger fish'
as sis and i were stuck with her lousy rod which made a reeling noise, we called it the tug boat. haha. we started fooling around, trying to get e fish to get e hook while i throw fish food to where they are so tt they might bite on the hook, but it was just funny.then i decided qiote brilliantly to stuff the fish pellet onto the hook and try. but then again, didnt work.then i started singing lullabies to the caught fishes which didnt seem to appreciate it. bah.then sis came up with the brilliant idea of putting fish choc and pelltes on the hook and we called it"the ultimate feast" then we excitedly cast the rod out once more. then reel back in. guess what? STILL no fish. grr. then mum n dad came baq happy tt they got extra fish. then we went back to the main place and had fishy barbecue. yummy fish. but i didnt quite like e seasoning.we also went to the marakoopa cave. beautiful! it was like having on the spot geog lessons. the guy explained how stalagtides and stalagmites formed. and how limestone was eroded away through solution or how the water rushed through and craved awae limestone leaving bedding planes as evidence.

saturdae, went to botantical gardens then it was up and away on the plane to melbourne and back to singapore thereafter.

mann!! i love the weather there! its simply awesome! oh and i MUSt add. the STARS!!! were plenty plenty plentiful!!!!!!pretty beautiful sky!literally" starry starry night"

on the plane back, watched 21 grams. dunno was it ra show or nc 16. but aniwae since its uncensored,halfway through,i was shocked to see naomi watt's tits. and the huever guy being very engrossed w whatever he was doing. i was like oh man. what am i watching? it suddenly felt like soft porn ok. not tt ive watched soft porn b4 but i think tts how it is.sick! and then my mum was like watching the same show on her screen :/ yuck yuck yuck.

and the moment i stepped outta singapore airport, in long sleeved shirt and pants,sweat glands started working again full force. and so yay. they were still functioning. hot like helll!!! is singapore. im greatful for my air con classrooom!!! :D

guess that was the trip. im glad i went so so glad. the air was refreshing and it was a lovely albeit costly break.

ok back to the failing. aiyah basically i failed econs, geog, mt and math. gp and lit is unknown cos there hasnt been a tests for both.

this week is my week of doom. i fear i gonna fail all 6 subjects. haii. and lee lian gave me prep talk on monday. so thankful to her. im heading to rocks if i dont buck up. and i really think im heading in a retain direction. and even scarier cos keng ee always says " perception is reality" abd if tt proves true...then.........AHHHHHH

tomorrow is gp. lit was just now and for the previous two nights, ive been falling asleep on my bed when supposed to study if not oversleeping till morning then i wake up and go 'shit'

im crashing to the rocks!

maybe im in this state cos ive been straying AGAIN! my bible is still in my church bag and the daily bread is urm sumwhere in the pile. and the pile is a never ending place of mess. go figure. its hard to find anything in THE PILE.

and i just sent michelle a photo of the table portion in my room and she's utterly shocked. now i wonder what will happen if she see's my room fullview?? hehe* lydia and hui teng will know! so will chris.

and tomorrow will be thursdae!! last day of common tests!! we're going for jalan kayu roti prata after tt! havent been there before. hahaa! happy only. this week is passing fast! im glad mon tues n wed's over already. gp left. and its essay. supposed to read through notes later.

oh and on to tragic events. i know im very outdated cos this happened on the 14th the day i left for aussie, but janice, sum girl in church met with a fatal accident. its a pity i never knew her. seems tt way all e time. when abigail passed awae ,again i hardly knew her. gee. i think im too anti social. but i think its better that way.

when chris told me on sundae what happened, all i ever do now when i see lorries is shudder when i see the side view mirrors.

ahh! its 421. and only 421. i can still nap!!!
and enjoy my afternoon at home. (:
