FAMILY AFFAIR: 2008

Saturday, September 27, 2008

hello from melbourne

I am having my mid-semester break now. supposed to be working on my commerce team assignment and a law assignment, but i just don't feel like doing anything.

Life has been busy, really busy.

uni work, parties, community services, everything! Although it's tiring, it's fulfilling at the same time. cut the crap, i shall post pics of the law cruise and commerce moulin rouge ball. Some of you might have already seen those pics on facebook, but i assume some of us don't have facebook yea?

law river cruise

ICSS Moulin Rouge

and no i don't party all the time lol. have been involving in community work quite a while now. Working with disadvantaged (mainly refugee) kids, helping them to build their social skills so that they fit into main stream Australia.

i look like walking zombie in this picture coz i slept at 4am the day before

Since I came to Melbourne, I gain hell lot of freedom, sometimes its a bit too much. so i guess by making myself committed to something like this, it reminds me that my life doesnt only revolve around me/myself. There are someone elses - hopefully when i go back to Malaysia in the future, I won't be too shocked when suddenly, someone or something takes my freedom away from me hehe.

ok back to work.

till then,
xoxo.

sry to have overlapped shan's post. psps
here are the photos of mel camp i went last week. =x
i didnt take pictures of the KTV but well it was fun
since u can nv imagine how its like unless u been there urself.

i won't detail everything or else it will be long.
first day wasn't looking forward to it much due to some reason.
but after on board things turn better.
then a few session of talks after lunch with a drill.
dinner was gd, in fact all meals were fantastic. it wouldn't be bad if sch had this.
our speakers are all classic. and seriously have gd impression on us,
the way they express themself has now been wad everyone is using.
cocktail reception after that, yup cocktail(without lecturer knowing)
since we can't drink. star gazing was cancel since there isn't any

second day
morning PT was cancel due to rain but i overslp anyway. =P
talks continues and thn disembarking at... PENANG!
u will nv see a sight like it in sg
a group of driver camp outside of the port hoping to get u to ur destination.
headed to Queensbay, RM 40.
BJ RM 15.
no matter how i look at it its still too ex.
for me, i headed back home surprising everyone back there. haha
didn't stay for long since the shore time isn't long
brought the gang to buy some stuffs and before long its time to go back.

third day.
whole day at phuket .
headed to the coast and the people there are. =x
for a living that they rise the price so much higher then the cost actual
didn't really buy much since something else caught my attention than shopping
waves there are not really suitable for water sports to us,
it got worst when it rain.

fourth day
more talks session,
bridge tour....
and there are stars finally near port klang
they wanted to stay awake overnite.
me however taking med lost it. unlike the camp i had.wad a waste.
sunrise... red wine... heavenly...

tho its such a big ship, huge waves still affect it,
the rowing do make u slp better.
thats bout all. this will definitely be a memorable trip.

hello peeps!!

how come small pig is the only one making all the efforts to keep this blog alive???

hehe.

i shall play my part by posting the redang post!

before that, u guys should have known that me and sis were at redang during ama's birthday *blush* *dig a hole and hide*

all i can say is, its a beautiful mistake =D =D =D we didn't know that it was ama's bday when we booked the ticket and everything =D =D =D

*thunder hit*

aiyak. dead.

anyway, redang is a really really nice place! i didnt know that theres such place in malaysia! cant believe that we can really have a very nice holiday without having to travel out of the country. But, everything is damn expensive in the small island. ah, the power of monopoly you see. Pulau Redang is made up of many other small tiny island which i have totally forgotten their names. We stayed at berjaya spa; berjaya 'owns' this tiny island which they built berjaya spa and berjaya beach resort, and they own almost everything on that island. This is why we had to pay RM 10 for a poor coconut when you can get a very nice huge pandan coconut at abu siti lane for RM 2.70.

What to do? GLAM ma. shit them la cheat my money only =.=

anyway, everything was almost perfect during the trip. we didn't spend much for the trip coz we got hotel rooms for free!! weeee~~ yes free is good considering the price for the hotel is RM 800 PER NIGHT.

the melbourne uni gang

it feels so sex and the city right??

did any of you watch that movie???

highly recommended. i love that movie.

the berjaya beach hotel ....

the sister

the girls

ish don u guys think my eye brows are damn thick? why leh? the gene must have run in the family la. everyone faster go and get a mirror and measure your eye brows.

ish seriously damn thick. no eye see *close my eye* *in denial*

actually we took more than 2000 pictures, but its gonna be a problem sharing them all.. hopefully 5 is enough for now la!

he he he

love love,
shan.
