Isn't it wonderful to be home ??

I feel extremely at home right now. I have marvellously unpacked my room and decorated it as well....and tomorrow I shall begin by cleaning up the kitchen, lounge and pantry...
I love love love my new apartment..it is absolutely perfect...it is still part of IH...so I get everything I could want in terms of activities and meeting people and Australians...and yet...it is my private little home...with a kitchen I can cook in...!! Hurrah !!

One thing though is that I am extremely amazed at the amount of clothes I have here as well as shoes...Definitely too many...I do believe it could amount to more than 70 kg right now !!

But nevertheless..that is a problem to be solved at the end of 9 months !

The freshers are wonderfully fresh...yet another new bunch of faces to tangle with, talk with, plan with...wow..!! apparently the freshers are much better this year in terms of participation and mixing around ! That is great news for IH...meanwhile..

Had a fantastic dinner yesterday with OrangeBear, RaeBear, FreddiBear, RoxBear and JJBear....(it is very nice to see everyone again...) and also there are plans for Saturday as it is RoxBear's 22nd birthday..(dear me...I shall be 21 soon)

Also wonderful coincidence met CinBear already ! Small world...!!

It is only three days before I fly back to Melbourne. It should be exciting as I am still not sure where I would be staying for a couple of days before I can move into my new apartment...Hmmm...but have already obtained permission to bunk with a couple of people. So it should not be a problem..something to think about though is what I should do on arrival...Probably stash my stuff quickly somewhere and then tackle the problem of arranging my timetable !

It has been a great Summer in part of many small exciting things...like working...writing real letters and sending them with stamps...meeting long unmet friends....new experiences...new places....driving around...

It really makes up for a boring Christmas and New Year...and I should say I really look forward to going back to IH !!

Gosh..time flies...am I repeating myself ? All of a sudden it is almost time to return to Melbourne for another year...Gosh it is really quick

And yet here I am still suffering from the effects of post CNY and post Vday trauma and stress...haha...funny thing is..just as I was to go to bed yesterday..I got a vday message from my colleague at the workplace...have I mentioned her before ? (the only single under 27) from JB..(or batu pahat)... ya and that made me had to reply and then more replies...so...wow..different experience altogether..nothing is going to happen though...I hope..!

When packing to return there is always a question of what to bring...unfortunately this year will be slightly different...I cannot afford to bring too much over as I will face a massive amount of luggage to bring back at the end of the year..Good thing is.. I have got to carry FangBear's bag over and it is about 9 kg..so it limits me somewhat...

Had my last visit to Pyramid of the year yesterday... nice to see some newer shops that I like...because otherwise will be visiting 1U and Curve so much more already....but to mention it...Times Square is not so bad..if you know what you want..haha.. but I guess nothing beats MidValley and KLCC yet...

Talking about dissapointments...don't you just hate it when someone tells you to meet up ..and end up not coming even though you have prepared for it...and got excited..and everything...otherwise known as 'flying airplane'...eesh...I am proud that I have not been guilty ever of such a thing..but HMPH..am not particularly pleased right now..

It is the NEW YEAR .... hurray in part...some things can start anew...some are just same old same old....

It is amazing isn't it how time flies ??
Another year has passed and sometimes you can still remember the very long time ago stuff.... :) very very nostalgic... :)

New Year this year has been the same as usual....on the Eve, made dumplings for 6 hours...I think my house can qualify as a mini factory already...considering the fact that we made well more than a thousand of those things...
Quite good as usual...and the gossip and stories shared around the table was very fun too !!

As for today..same as usual too..just that did not get to meet a very missed godmother...who died from Cancer sometime in April..but my grand total comes to ....drum roll please... exactly RM 100.... woot....
Yea...as I have told everyone...Chinese New Year just ain't that great a celebration at my home... :P ><"

Other news...Rummaging through the bargain bins..I found a cassette of Arashi's Ichigou !! for RM 10....
It is like hard found treasure man..I think I have listened to it for like 10 times already .. !! Phew....but thank goodness because I have been looking for the song Kokoro Chirari for so long like 4 years !
That was one good thing !!

Also ..somehow seemed to bump into someone with a great load of MV from w-inds and Arashi..so got a whole load of things to watch too.now... ah..as well..talking about w-inds...am slowly starting to listen to their songs too but that Keita has just too hard a voice..so I find it easier sticking to Arashi after all...

What a wonderful week it has actually been.

Let us not mention the amounts of time I have been out and did something fun. There was also the time I was moved to near tears because of something I ate that was sooooooo good and yummy and reminded me so much of something. Thanks SharBear for coming along on that journey....yum...and so touching...

Then I have also loads and loads of ideas for the musical cafe that IH is producing this year....and also the fact that I have been to Karoke with all the IH gang..down here...sigh....there is nothing better than karoke for relaxation I think....they should probably restock new songs..faster...I might go again next week...

Bowling is also a great sport since there was a challenge with OrangeBear to have a match in Bowling...I think I get better each time I bowled...More practice is definitely needed :)

But it has been great.. Have also visited the dentist..booked my flight ticket....called JPN....got stopped by police for passing red light...(yeah...)...received my wages...visited my colleagues..got loads of songs...watched loads of movies...eaten loads of stuff...finally fixed the blog....located lots of wanted knowledge....improved japanese.... discovered orange range...phew...life is looking bright right now... :)

That's it for a while...

Finally I have decided to stop being lazy and solved the problem of the tagboard. Well it is not actually solved as I do not have one anymore..but what I did was to have a doodle board instead so that People can still drop in stuff....so it's solved...kinda..

It's burning hot..and I have no more clothes to wear.........well that is what happens if you take too many showers a day...plus I feel that a lot of my clothes are really too hot to wear...( in the fact that I would probably melt if I were to wear them)

It is certainly break up season though...it seems as though it occurs near the end of the year...in my msn list alone..the number of depressing nicks of people who have broken up..numbers 10....wow..another reason I do not believe in long distance relationships I guess...

Have started to do the blueprints for the Cafe acts after the discussion with Harvard yesterday..so I am actually getting into stuff as well...I even mowed some of my lawn yesterday..it is a work in progress..also...am listening to a lot of songs.lately...becoming an obsession....I think the body of mine including the eyes and the ears are trying to intake too much Japanese and Korean lately....what with the amount of serials I have been watching...

Karaoke on Saturday hurrah !!
