so i haven't blogged in ages. what on earth is this new blogger thing? man i feel like such a noob.

i'm back from china, and it was a good trip. no i'm not going to blog a massive entry about it complete with photos and all. it's entirely too time-consuming and right now i can't afford the time to spare :( but if we do manage to catch up face to face, i promise to fill in all the details complete with pictures. prepared a 1gb memory card with as many photos as i've kept. :D

a quick update on what's going on in my life now :)

- i turned 16. had one of the most memorable and special birthdays i could ever ask for.
- caught the sniffles in china and i am STILL suffering from it. (the big weather change from chinese winter to australian summer can't have been good. also, the smoke, pollution, rainy weather and oily food in china didn't help.)
- got into Unimelb extension program! First Year Pysch here i come! this is pretty cool considering how i really wasn't expecting to get it. but Praise God!
- been running around trying to get alot of admin work sorted. calling up tution teachers, trying to secure times that i'm hoping is least likely to clash with uni. cannot make sense of my timetable whatsoever; clicked on it and was like.. wtf? :P
- summer school lectures in the next 2 days and uni welcome day on friday.
- my grandparents are leaving on the 18th :( i'm sad to see them go, but i know that they feel so much more independant in singapore even though i think they get lonely.
- caught up with a few friends. it felt good to see familiar faces and bum with my favourite people.
- listened to english music. oh joy. i am so sick of chinese. lately i like lots of lifehouse, howie day and damien rice.
- ought to get crackin' on that holiday hw but it feels too good to be back home chilling.
- dad's birthday today. his big 48 -_-'' we went to tea house on burke to celebrate. dad decided to go all out and order the chef's selection banquet. ended up being 3 courses too many and had to takeaway. i had so much food that lunch stretched from 1 to 3, and it's now 9.40 and i'm still not hungry. the energy used for all that digestion made me take a 4 hour nap too. what a pig :D
- i watched a pursuit of happyness. it's an awesome show. not gonna ruin in for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but will smith and his son, jayden christopher smith is a dynamic killer combo. the kid's a natural and is perfect for the role. throw in will smith who's a first-class actor. this movie made me teary several times.. and it's guaranteed to be one of those movies you walk out feeling inspired from.
-amy & chris's birthday coming up. what to dress up as? any suggestions for cartoon characters.. :)?

yep that's about it.. byebye all!
