Shopping Fever Is Back!!!

God please, could I wake up tomorrow morning and see my bank account credit with a few extra thousands for no apparent reason?

Gosh I went to Garden city this afternoon for about only and hour and a half, and I managed to buy an ipod nano, a dress and a lipstick. :s . And I saw a few other stuffs that I also wanted but had to stop myself from buying them...

Is this because I didn't shop since I came back from Singapore? Who knows? I didn't even know that I wanted to shop so much until I started buying. And the other bad things is that I went only in Myer, Dotti and Priceline. 3 shops can generate so many wants...

yummy yummy muffins

Ok just a quick blog update, before a dear friend of mine (Saadiah)reminds me to write something. :p .lol

So I haven't been doing much stuffs lately, mostly sleeping and watching some crap tv. Oh well, I guess that the definition of holidays for me; relax and do nothing. :) .

On Thursday night, after work I was bored while waiting for my dinner to cook in the oven, so I decided to bake muffins. They tasted pretty good. ^^

Apple, date, walnut and honey muffins

Where are people when we need them?

It's been insanely hot since yesterday; the temperature reached 42.9 yesterday and 42.7 today.

Although I usually don't really like ice cream I found myself craving for some last night. Unfortunately the nearest supermarket was already closed and all the ice cream shops were too far away. So I decided to wait for the next day, hoping that the ice cream van would drive past. ( Coz it's seriously too hot for me to even consider venturing outside the house)

But it never did!!!! Arghhh. I seriously hate this ice cream van. Lol. Always driving past my window on cold winter days and disturbing me with its creepy music during my naps. But when summer comes I've got no clue of where it disappeared to... Where are people when you need them?

Korean tea

Today I went to the new Korean store in winthrop village. There weren't many interesting stuffs there apart from the usual noodles, drinks and snacks...

The only thing that caught my eyes was this brown rice green tea. ( Dong Suh Brown Rice Green Tea). Having never tasted or even heard about it, I decided to give it a try.

The tea's first impression, that is, its smell was not very convincing, as it smells more like food that the teas I'm usually used to. It doesn't really have the refreshing and invigorating fragrance that I usually appreciate in tea; the rice smell being too strong.

The colour is a normal green tea colour, that is pale yellowish.

And finally the taste... It does taste nice, with just a hint of rice flavour, although I can't really distinguish the green tea savour.

The verdict is that it's not one of the favourite teas, but definitively drinkable. Lol. This green tea flavour is more suited for a cold winter night. :)

2010 shall not be my lazy year

Alright I know i didn't post anything for ages... I will just pretend that i wasn't lazy, but just very busy those past few weeks.

So just a brief outline of what's been going on in my head and life recently.

1) Been on holidays to singapore, vietnam and malaysia. It was just awesome. :) . Although I didn't really find anything interesting in KL. (Sorry if anyone from malaysia is reading this. But oh well, everyone has the right to have their own opinion)

2) Come back to perth and look for a new place. That one was quite stressful and tiring. I had to call a few places and go and check them. Which required me to walk in the hot sun of perth! :'( . Sniffff.

3) Deal with my currently landlord and his daily visits. (Just want to kick him somewhere really specific so that he stops coming)

4) Meet up with some friends that i haven't seen in ages. :) . That one was just pure fun ^^

By the way, i found a new place and just can't wait to start moving. The only downside is that i won't be living with my friends anymore. :'( . Now i'm crossing my fingers to get nice new housemates. :)

Sakura and Sayonara off to King Parks

Today my friend Sakura and I went to Kings Park.
Oh man, what an adventure...

This morning we woke up early (9.30, yes so unexpected from us. Guess it’s our new jap side) to go to uni to get a few things done.
Then we headed to the city to do some browsing. For once I didn't buy anything. :) . I am trying to keep every little cent that I have to shop in Singapore later. Can’t wait!!!

With our bubble teas and KFCs in hand we were ready to start our picnic in Kings Park!!!

Now that’s where the adventure really begins…

1) Find the bus to Kings Park. Luckily the woman at the information was quite helpful on this one.

2) Once we got off the bus, find the central area of kings Park. We failed on this one. Haha. We walked in the wrong direction and had no clue of where we were... :p . Aww, two poor little lost Japanese tourists… We were so tired and hungry that we decided to just sit down wherever we were and start eating. When we opened our KFC bag, our burger and twister we soggy. Arggg. And again, those CHARMING kfc people didn’t give us any wet tissues. -.- . Seriously what’s wrong with them? It’s the 3 rd time this week that this happens to me.

During our meal we were surrounded by fierce crows. We swore that they were all ganging against us and planning an attack. Lol.

3) Now that our stomachs were full, we were ready again for adventure. We decided to go and look for the state memorial area. Actually, I was quite near… Haha. Like about 15 minutes walk from where we were.

Well, we spent a couple of hours there just enjoying the sun and the view.

Oh, and I got disturbed a few times by my stupid landlord. I seriously think that there is something wrong with him… -.-

busy busy week

This past week has been very busy and pretty tiring… But very fun. So I will attempt to make a resume…

From Sunday to Tuesday my younger cousin Julie, was staying at my place. On Monday we went shopping and I bought a big white shirt to go the beach. I think I am currently obsessed by the beach. Lol. I keep on buying things to go the beach.

On Tuesday I went to Mandurah with my housemates and some friends. It’s a small town situated in the south of Perth. There wasn’t much to do there, but the day was pretty fun thanks to my wonderful friends. ^^ . After Mandurah we ended up in freo where we had dinner at little creatures and had dessert at San Churros. At night I accompanied my cousin Simon to drop Julie to the airport. She went back to Mauritius. When I came back home Angelina and Jesper were there, so we had a few drinks with the other housemates.

Then on Wednesday I had lunch with my 2 other cousins, Yannick and Eric in the city. It was nice to catch up with them after a few months. Although they live in Perth I don’t meet them very often. In the afternoon, Charlene, Mabel, Jason and I, we went to visit a house for rent near Uni. This house was simply perfect, it even has a pool… I really really hope that we get it. (Keeping my fingers crossed) I can’t wait to tell to my current landlord that I am moving out!

Two of my housemates, Charlene and Mabel left for Singapore on Thursday. So now it’s Saadiah and I against the world!!! Lol.

On Friday, Saadiah and I went to garden city to catch up my our ex housemate, Melanie. Was good to see her and chit chat. :) . Afterwards we went fishing with Jason and his friends. Surprisingly it was fun. I saw a seal and I nicknamed it Jack. Although all the other fisherman/fisherwoman there, probably hated it,cause it ate their fish, I just thought that Jack was so cute. Haha.

Saturday, as usual I went to work. Then I went to a bar with Calvin, Jason and Saadiah to have dinner. Unfortunately I can’t remember the name of the bar. Guess I was too tired. But the pizza was good, it had a lot of prawns on top… That’s enough to make me happy. ^^

And finally, today, saadiah and I, we visited the fremantle prison. It was quite interesting to learn about the past of Western Australia and how the prison was run.

I guess it’s enough for now. Time to go to sleep. Another long day is waiting for me tomorrow… ^^
