i would rather trust a woman's instinct than a man's reason.
Thursday 31 January 2008 @ 8:59 pm

above title is something that i've just realized. though, of course, it should have been the top of my moral list for many many years. how absurd was it for me to live&love in denial before? dont worry, that is sooo last year. its 08 baby and im gonna live it upp:)

so why am i still up?
since, ive wasted my time on microsoft office (and dict.com,of course) and the only person whos gonna appreciate it is the administration person in the school, i might as well post it up.

Supporting Statement
To many who do not scrape beneath the surface, it is assumed that fashion as a concept is essentially about what is ‘hot or not’ on the runway or who is wearing what on the red carpet. To some, and I hope to include myself among them, fashion means a great deal more than that.

My own admittedly limited ‘scraping beneath the surface’ has led me to believe that there are many aspects to fashion theory and the industry as a whole that one must be familiar with to succeed in the fashion business. Therefore the main reason why I consider myself suitable for the course is that I am determined to learn about what is beyond what is easily observed- what it is that makes the industry work in the way it does and the practical lessons that would come with such an understanding. I don’t expect such an undertaking to be easy but I feel I can meet the challenge thanks to my keen interest in the subject matter, so even when the work is tough I will still essentially be immersing myself in something I am enjoying discovering.

Although I do not yet know enough to adequately describe what specific areas of the industry I might enjoy the most, I have a fundamental goal to gain a greater understanding of how the fashion industry works and how one might manage it. This course will be a pathway for me to get into the BA (Hons) Fashion management course which I hope to get into after completing my time at LCF.

I hope to be a successful entrepreneur one day. Through your college I hope to gain the best possible start to a path that will hopefully lead me to this via working in one of the leading fashion companies and eventually have a fashion business of my own.

In high school I particularly enjoyed taking economy and art as subjects. The main lesson taught in economy was to use available goods and resources efficiently and in art on the other hand, I have learnt how to appreciate the works of many people. I think these two subjects in particular have expanded my interest in the fashion business area. I hope to accomplish the understanding of customers’ needs which I will learn in the buying & merchandising aspect of the BA(hons) course. Also, another possibility is that I hope to be able to realise with regards to my home country Indonesia, is to be a part of rapid growth expansion in fashion industry. It is because I feel that by the introduction of modern management skills to the country which have many potential work skills, Indonesia will be able to grow and develop more than what they are achieving at the moment.

My parents have been in the fashion industry for many years now. They have now opened factory outlets in Indonesia, which I am hoping to continue when I finish my studies. Since young, our common conversation topics would be the different aspects of the business. During the time between now and when the course start in late September, they have allowed me to experience opening a very small business of my own; a small retail outlet which I will be managing. Hopefully this will also equip me with some good work experience before I step into the course.
so this will go with my application form. today was a hellday! ive realised that you really do need to know how to be independent when living in someone's else country. especially ldn, when people arent as friendly. so first i went to the school which was on princess st. and it was like my 3rd time stepping into the school, trying hard to get hold on someone who can explain a little bit more about the courses. luckily, this young front desk dude was extremely friendly and he explains that i have to take a foundation course; fashion access, in order to take like a BA(hons). then he asked me to fill in a form and go to like the admin office 2nd level and he also mentioned that i do it asap because the application deadline is today. then when i reached there, the guy was like "oh okay. youre an international student. i cant help you much with that, you need to go to another one of our campus" and handed me a map.

on the way to the other campus, i totally felt like breaking down and the weather was not helping either. it was extremely cold and windy and in my mind i thought"why cant anyone here help me? seriously, im only 17 and i have to do everything on my own!"

then i reached the other campus, and i rushed to the international office and guess what? i was late by 5 mins, it was closed. luckily, this guy came by and he wanted to go to the office too but it was closed.

me: we missed it by few mins:(

theguy: oh, actually im working here. come and follow me, we'll go to another office and i'll try to sort it out for you.

omg:) arent i lucky:) God is really thoughtful!
so anyway, he gave me a new application form and also said that there are no deadlines for international students. also, it said that they require a high school transcript, and i quickly asked "i did extremely poorly in my high school exam. will this affect the application process? is there anything I can do about it?" then he explained, not really. depends on how keen you are into getting the course and that is why you have to fill in the supportive statement part. something which is not that lengthy yet informative. so pray hard that i'll get into the foundation course. otherwise, ill just go to istitutomarangoni which doesnt really care about my marks, and i can take the three years course straight away.


i miss sleepovers:(



love ya babiesss

it is alarming how fashion can brainwash us, making sartorial crimes of yesteryear seem like the next big thing.
Tuesday 29 January 2008 @ 2:05 pm

high did it once again,
seriously i do need to grow up.
always coming up with some emo shit.

anyway, i do do do feel much better now.
woke up at around one-ish, took shower and squeezed in couple of episodes from project runway canada. i'm so obssessed with the whole reality show thing. and i swear, this is the first time ive watched every single second of project runway. firstly because, project runway canada is so much better than the normal project runway (the designers have much more potential/and the challenges are more realistic), and secondly, im now into learning what clothes really made of. like the different material and like different elements and structure of clothing. hopefully (oh god please!) i wont be that insane/obsessed that in the end ill change my major from fashion marketing/management to fashion design.

and also, now ive changed my mind. im trying hard to get into london college of fashion instead of istituto marangoni cos ive met more people today (from both colleges) and the LCF is much more appealing to me. and guess what, it is located in oxford circus! where else everytime i visit marangoni i feel that the atmosphere is so ghetto. also, one more important fact; marangoni institue only give you a course certificate where else LCF give you a deegree certificate. after all LCF is a university. BUT the thing is that i have to do a foundation course first (im pretty sure of this) which im gonna pay before i go back indo, cos i know papaperri will hold me back and wont allow me to fly back to london.

so anyway, darling paris saved the day,(TURUTTTUTTTUUTTT; trumpet sound)!!
i was sitting down alone in the cafe while waiting for my friend to finish school. and man, when youre alone, you just think of every thing thats happening. and obv, i wont wanna tell mom/dad what happened cos they'll be like; "so poor thing, thats why i dont want you to be so far away youre too young come back indo and live with us yah?" and no, as mentioned many times. i wanna stay on my own. cant always depend on them otherwise i aint gonna grow up. anyway i tried holding back my tears so hard, cos it was around teatime, and the cafe was pretty crowded. and paris knew i felt like crying so she was like "just cry i know you want to" and shit suddenly the next thing i knew was that there was a pool of tears on the coffee table and this woman handed me tissue. she gave me this awww-are-you-okay-i-feel-sad-for-you-look (but obv she didnt wanna say anything cos she knew i was on the phone.

but everythings fine now, i feel so much better. and like this is not the first time this had happened. it has been going on and on and on and every single one of you have helped me through it. i am pretty sure i had disturbed at least an hour of your sleep just because i needed to talk. i knew that tide/icemint would also do the same thing as paris, actually im hundred percent sure that ive ruined one of your nights (all my supper friends:)) just because i needed to talk to someone. i love you babiess:)

oh yah, anyway then the woman who gave me tissues, i saw her again when i went to the toilet. then she came up to me and said;

w: are you okay? did anyone passed away?

m: oh, no im okay, thank you very very much.

w: are you sure? what happened? are you alright?

m: yeah im okay. just everything happening at once, and im so new to the place too.

w: oh, i know how you feel. its been 10 years since i moved to UK and sometimes i feel the same too.

m: yeah, im just not used to it.

w: people here in UK are very stuck up, theyre not vy friendly.

which then also reminded me, the other day i tried clothes on in topshop. i didnt want any, and there were like 3 pieces. so before i went out i gave them backwith the hangers. but obv i didnt like fold them up properly or anything. then the freaking lady said;

"YOU NEED TO HANG THEM UP ONE BY ONE BEFORE YOU GIVE IT BACK TO US"

what??? seriously i have never stepped in any shop in any country or continent whose salesperson demand us to hang the clothes back neatly when we decided not to get it.

okay, im gonna go now. i shall go get some healthy snacks (damn hungry but its so late), and watch project runway canada finale (and im not worrying, cos i found out theres britains next top model,yeah!) since all the file loads up already:):):)

i miss and love my mlc babies:)

to vicky; thanks very much:) and also just a word of advice before you enter the leavers year. highschool friends are the group of people that will stay with you no matter what. and yr 12 is the most memorable highschool year, should be glad that youre spending it in mlc. treasure every single day of highschool (doesnt mean that you have to go to school every single day, but obviously those significant ones when they take pictures, like swimming carn and like hat photo day), and gd luck for tee.

though i only caught the briefest glimpse from the corner of my eye, i knew immediately that he reminded me of someone familiar
Monday 28 January 2008 @ 5:10 pm

okay does anyone know how to put this thing on private? like as in you have to put password in order for anyone to see the blog. cos really i dont mind you guys reading it, or like someone who totally got nothing to do with it, if you know what i mean. im the kind of person who likes to say things the way they are exactly and like its so fucking annoying that i cant type here cos just in case a random would find out about my blog and next time they can put this against me. so please do tell yeah, and obv ill tell you the pw.

anyway, so ive got another problem. i met someone who looks exactly like chocolate man (you probably know who chocman is, if you dont, im sure tide does. ), and man its so fucking annoying cos he is just right there. and like i can resist it personally, when im sober. but not when im not. and like obviously you know me, eventhough i can always avoid those sorta things, sometimes the situation can be difficult. and when youre at the surrounding, you dont know what can happen? wtf am i suppose to do? i have been so freaked out i even typed this msg to brotherr1an "ASAP EMERGENCY CALL ME WHEN YOU WAKE UP" like 5 mins ago. i mean cmon, the other night already i was hell talking about DH to everyone(including people i just met). and now, arggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. i am fucking doomed, stressed, freaked out or whatever you call it lah.
you think i need your attitude tonight? i've got plenty of people who are far more expert at giving me a really fucking hard time.
Sunday 27 January 2008 @ 8:38 am

sorry for the last post.
you know when you have a mind-bothering situation and you just need to talk to someone, well i had one of those just yesterday. i had to type it here cos, i cant let out my problems to anyone here. and i know you guys, are the most helpful ones, trusted ones, patient ones, who'll gladly listen to my blabbers (eventhough you know that its gonna be the same thing every single conversation, you guys will at least pretend that youre into it). i just feel the safest when i let out all my secrets to you bab

im pretty sure that you guys know what it is, and i know that icemint will be the most disappointed one out of all you. but its alright, im over it. i am just pissed at (lets call him/her, dh for dickhead), for being so nice and sweet at the start, and of course it was my fault too for trusting dh.so last night, my housemate's classmate from london came over to stay at our place (she is portuguese btw). apparently she was travelling the whole of UK or something like that, and so, oxford was her first stop. anyway, she cooked extra delicious spaghetti for us for dinner. then at 10 something or so, we wanted to show her the nightlife here. so we went to this bar/lounge which i cant remember the place, but it was pretty nice and we had drinks. i remembered being extra quiet in the car on the way there. people kept asking me if was ok? or are you sleepy? but the truth was that i was still extremely pissed off. anyway, then when we were sitting, theres this angmoh dude (from another group) came to sit beside me cos there werent any space left. anyway, then we started talking about oxford n stuff (cos what else can we talk about), then so i asked him what other good bars in oxford (i was really really running out of conversation topics). then he said something like "the turf" if im not wrong.

him: have you been there?

me: no

him: its really old, but they have the best beers, you should try someday

me: ok.....

him: you know whats the history of that place?

me: urmm, no. why, tell me about it

him: you know when bllclntn (had to use initials just in case. btw, hes the ex-prsdnt of US) was young, he used to study in oxford. he used to go to that bar and smoke weed. then went he was gonna be elected, people ask him whether he was free of drugs? he said yes. but when one of his old friend mentioned the turf bar cos he wanted to sabotage him, BC answered "yes i had them. but i didnt inhale any"

me: what a silly answer

seriously, please lah. mr bc i know you can come up with a better answer! but still, i love him much more than gb.

ok anyway, then after that we went to my housemate's boyfriends house cos we got bored of the bar and it was a saturday night so all the other bars in town is fully packed by students (as mentioned before, oxford is a student city). so then there were like 5 of us (i think) and frankly speaking i was abit off myself (pretty much what i did in icemints sleepover when you guys made me realize that blah blah blah). i slept from 5am till like 11am cos my mobile rang. it accidentally woke my housemate too so we had a little chat, talking bout last night, before i headed back to my house.

her: you remember what happened last night?

me: yeah pretty much. well i know that i definitely didnt do anything stupid

her: yeah yeah, you didnt do anything. but you were so pissed at DH.

me: hah? really, how did you know?

well, apparently, i talked about dh alot. there were the most swearings i have ever let out in a five hour period in my whole lifetime. and i didnt even talked to the group as a whole, i actually came up to them individually to talk about it. and i even showed them on the comp all the proof of him for being such a dh.

i am so dumb.

was talking to tide this morning (her aft), and im so glad that we had the conversation. not that anyones hasnt told me before(pratically each and every single one of my supper friends have mentioned this), but tide, once again emphasized that i shouldnt be regretting this at all. after all if i hadnt gone through all this, i wont wake up and realized that it is the real world, and theres many DHs in the world and this has taught me a lesson and if it werent for this, ill never learn my lesson:) so thanks babies, thats one of the gazillion reasons why im so glad that i went to MLC otherwise i wouldnt have met you guys.

anyway, i was looking at my friends profile pic on facebook, and the picture was of her and her friends happily eating watermelons. i havent eaten watermelon for ages okay. and i dont think that they have it here, im pretty sure it grows better on tropical countries, hot summery weather. i feel like the semi circle, thinly cut, fresh, juicy red, thirst-quenching watermelon.

on the 7th of feb;
1. im gonna call my driver in indo (hes damn good at choosing the best fruits and he knows where to get the good ones) to buy me the best watermelon in town.

2. call my maid to put those fine watermelons in the fridge, and make sure i specifically say the fridge not the freezer (cos i remember her putting durians in the freezer) in the midnight so that when i arrive in bandung i can munch the superlicious watermelons away without it being too soggy.

3. and then im gonna ask my maid to change my bedsheets and make sure that my special-made pillows (i hate it when its too soft or too hard) and my bolsters (omg, i miss having bolsters!), and also make sure i have my extra comfy bedcover (not the ones that my mom buy cos she thinks that they have nice patterns and they have like extra thick stitchings which irritates me at night) all on the bed, and my pijamas (which has to be washed the day before cos i love the smell, and somehow overseas i can never make my clothings smell that good, and they have to be perfectly ironed) all on the bed. then i will also ask her to turn on the aircon an hour before i reach home so that itll be nice and cold when i jump in the bed...

ahhh, all these pleasure which can only be found in indo:)

anyway, so ive finished america's next top model, and currently im watching project runway canada! im loving all these reality shows! if anyone knows a good one, please do recommend me:) itll keep me company when i have really really bad insomnia.

talked to nadirah on skype just then, and the connection is so clear and you can webcam at the same time. skype is one of the best thing ever i swear. its so damn cheap if you call international (you just top up 10 bucks and you can use it to call anyone for hours), and even better, when the other person has skype, its free!

iloveskype!
im such a freak and skype should be paying me for this, but seriously its so damn excellente

havent talked to her for like 2weeks++! great to catch up with her, and as usual, typical catprincess' obsession, guess what she talked to me about.


she said shes gonna have a cat in melb, and was telling me that these were the types cats that she have considered. i told her that the second one is so damn cute. eventhough i hate cats, i told her that id dare to touch it if she gets that one. where else if she gets the first one, not only i wont touch it, i wont even dare to step in her house. also, i told her that if lets say i get her a cat for her bday, or if anyone gets her one, ill buy a nametag for it before she receives it so that she wont be able to change the name, and name her "millie". is it from the princess diaries? or maybe not cant remember. itd be so adorable. you can call it "mimi", and at the same time, michybaby will respond too:) haha, jokes. she said that she was gonna call it depending on the colour, if its black itll be "coffee" and so on. so typical, lah. and also we were talking about syazzs cat and we're like its sooo syaz to call it "fluffy",ha!

its 9;21 pm now and i shall go clean the house, vacuum blah blah blah cos its so damn messy, and i know its so me to be messy but to have a clean surrounding shall be my in thang for 2008.

also, nadirah you promised me that if you go back malaysia before you go to melb, and if you go to jkt for at least 3 days, you have to stop by bandung. we've talked about having cheap good satisfying massages in bandung, and baby its time to get real! and syaz, dont you get away with this too. you said that you'll try to go bandung before perth!

and to all these people;
amelia
eepyn
michybaby

when are you gonna give me your addresses. you know, i just realized that these are the ones who is #1 in handing up assignments in mlc. but man, it takes like 45897543years for me to get your freaking address!

even with the smiles on the first collage up there, ill rather have this company:
when partying hard like a rockstar!
(p.s, eventhough yulyn look freaking sick in the picture, i know she'll have no complains about it cos guess what, her peeloh an eeyore is in it too)

and also, in addition to yulyns post;
in about ten yearsssss;
- even if we have turned into bitches, i dont think we will towards each other. i mean, we have our own little bitches attitude in ourselves, but we know the limit if its around the group:)
- not only we will compare who has the richest husband, we will also talk about who has the best butt (definitely will happen), but of course, without his wife in the conversation. haha, im sorry but cmon lah its so true.
- and syaz, will definitely pretend to go to the toilet when she is actually out to the car park to look at whos car will have the biggest rims.
-and of course me and cristal will discuss whose car is more expensive. dont worry cristal, you'll win, cos you wont be able to see my car there, ill travel by helicopter by then.
-not only we will talk about whos wearing the cheapest dress, but also who wears the most expensive shoes or the most couture outfits.
-yulyn. im going to say this once ok. if in ten years, you still bring your peeloh around (and dont you give me this excuse; its not mine, its shin's; cos thatll be her future son's name apparently), i we, wont invite you to the gatherings.
-also, one of the gatherings will be at my place. i will send my private jet to everyones city to personally pick you guys up.

love you babies:)
IM FUCKING PISSED & ANNOYED
Saturday 26 January 2008 @ 12:14 pm

i know that i shouldnt be
instead i should be happy

BUT I AM FUCKING PISSED
i wasnt surprised when someone told me, but i tried hard to formulate a believable enthusiastic response.
Thursday 24 January 2008 @ 6:21 pm

its 3.29 am now and im supposed to be snoring by now cos i have to send mom off to the airport at 6am,SHARP. boo hoo big deal

anyway, im way too sick of explaining how my trip to more london sightseeing was, so pictures will do:)

this is a tiny souvenir shop.


this is the big ben across the road from the tiny souvenier shop.

this is the famous river under the london bridge which is overcrowded by tourists.
and behind its the london eye.

this is the sidewalks, and that is mr.peanut and he sells peanut roasted honey.

and that is the london eye.

so i started on a list the other day which will be updated every now and then;
must-thingamabobs-when-you-guys-visit-london
-treat panini with brie filling anywhere in oxford
-go wild and swipe our daddys credit card in bicester
-bring you guys to this moroccan cafe full of hawt bartenders&exotic tapas
-book the whole of london eye cabin thingo for us to occupy the damn thing privately(awwwww)

***i have finished my novel, "rules for saying goodbye", and so when i was in selfridges, i passed a bookshop! mom was hurrying so i didnt look through many but i got one, titled" everyone worth knowing" by Lauren Weisberger and she was also the author of "the devil wears prada". havent really started on it yet, but will do soon.

so i was gonna send out my application for instituto marangoni. except, i had everything completed and all the documents attached, except for one. damn high school cert. i swear i only have the one which has all the uni details which i received in indo sent by the curiculum council and thats it. and the application needs only the cert, they dont need to know how much i've got. so then i called MLC (God is thoughtful), and it is open. so i asked the school if they can send me a high school grad cert, but no they said they dont give out those, the currcouncil does. so then i called the currcouncil, and they said theyve sent it a long time before. they said the letter includes the transcript of your marks and a high school certificate. but no i didnt even receive it, so they asked me to pay for TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS cos i asked for a reprint. but wth, i didnt even get it in the first place. so then i asked them to do me a favour by scanning it too and sending it to my email. i asked the lady in currcouncil to specifically email me the scanned grad cert only. but no she sent me both. and it was a freaking pdf file. i couldnt seperate the two documents apart.

ARGGGH. the freaking reason i only want the graduation cert is because i dont want the school to see my high school marks. and i specifically ask her to do that. and i even paid 25BUCKS. CALL ME A CHEAPSKATE, BUT PLEASE FOR 25 I CAN BUY A DAMN COUNTRY ROAD PYJAMAS, OR FOR YULYNS SAKE, SHE CAN EAT A RATHER SATISFYING JAWS LUNCH (that is if she has eaten a big breakfast).

its 4;16 am and im still damn pissed. im gonna go off to bed and start on my new book.


oh and we had dinner at thai restaurant and dessert at the moroccan cafe. both moms favourite cos she's going back tomorrow:( :)
toenail polish reminded me of the smell of the girls' dorm at school. recently, smells and tastes and places i had forgotten made me very nostalgic.
Tuesday 22 January 2008 @ 5:24 pm

dilemma dilemma, as cristal perfectly describes.
btw, thanks for calling, it was very sweet of you dear.


so last night my parents had a long conversation secretly, talking about my uni options. mom really wants me to stay&study in london. she reckons its a big opportunity, her famous phrase; "why not do it now while we are still able to support you?" (in indo of course, and at least once in every two days without fail, and this has started even long before tee commenced) and so today, we checked out the other universities in London which relates to fashion business/marketing something around that faculty. and, i have to show you this (below). i am so proud of myself, by doing this the night before, i have not only save up taxi fares, but also precious sight seeing time in London.


cmon, you have to at least give me some credit for this. kampung girl know that google map existed, and she even knew how to use it.

anyway, so i have narrowed it down to two universities;
london college of fashion
instituto marangoni

first one has courses which are more specific, such as buying&merchandising or marketing&design or marketing&promotion and others. and it is more well known in asian countries. but the second one, the only course that i was interested in is fashion business. so in a sense, it is much broader. and marangoni is apparently famous in europe, one of the most well known one, and it has three branches, milano, paris and london. the three locations does the exact same courses, and the teaching system is the same in all campuses except in milan its in italian, in paris its in french. but anyway, i can move from one city to the other at the end of each year without any additional cost or exams, its just that duh of course i have to take up the language.

so that's the two that im interested in and the london college of fashion starts in september while marangoni starts in october. frankly speaking, im more interested in the second one, i like the campus more too, its more unique and different. so today at tea, mom& i talked about it. she is also very happy for me to go in marangoni, basically to study in london itself. and she told me to settle the applications first and stay here for like a week or so, then go back to indo to work with my dad, cos he's renovating an old store, and they reckon i should open my own line, like my brother did. anyway, so everyone was quite happy with the idea in the afternoon.

however by night, i talked to dad again on the phone;
me: so now, i dont have to apply in curtin already right? ill tell koko

dad: *silent

me: no, really? what do you want me to do?

dad: just stay there for few weeks then come back to indo

me: but you told me this morning to look at the schools?

dad: yeah okay, but just go apply the one in curtin and just go start uni there first

me: but what do i do? do i enroll here?

dad: yeah

me: what happens if i get accepted?

dad: then we'll see

me: but wouldnt it be wasting money? for enrollment itself is quite pricey

dad: then go get refund back from curtin when you wanna go back to london

me: no such thing.

dad: just go curtin, finish uni, take diploma blah blah then go to london, continue studying there for three more years

me: no, seriously. then why you tell me to look at schools in london thennnnn.. tell me your final thought on this uni thing

dad: up to you


ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH. seriously, sometimes its so annoying when you have parents like mine. what am i suppose to do? if i choose A he'll say why not B? then if i choose B, he'll go, but why B, why not try A? ARGGGGGGGGHHHHH. i am really so freaking annoyed with this shit its not funny.

for me personally, do i prefer london or perth?

again. perth is just so comfortable and everything is so settled. and the company is a major factor too! but yes i do wanna study here, cos the course sounds more interesting and frankly speaking, even the uni look more appealing to me. BUT, i am 50-50 and therefore i let my parents decided since they are the one who support me financially. BUT, its not like they're giving me the help that i need. and also curtin starts vy vy vy soon and i know i need to enroll vy vy soon too! argggggggggggggggghhhhh!

i am so pissed and annoyed and this is the time that i need cristal to have a vroy getaway. or this is the time that id call yulyn and complain to her about everything and eventhough it will result to nothing ill feel so much better aft talking to her. or even syazeera salleh. paris, ive realized that few years back we will bitch behind each others back when one of us call up at night, crying over stupid opposite sex. but this year, when we've got closer, we will be the one who's looking out for one another, calling to ask if anything's up instead of waiting for the phone to ring! haha.




and oh yah! today we also saw "sound of music" the musical:) its like a must to see musicals in london! and since mom likes sound of music (actually, its the only one which shes familiarized with), we decided to watch it. we bought the 35 pounds seat, but the guy gave us the 55 pounds seat cos i thought him how to say thankyou, goodnight and see you again in indo! musical itself was vy vy good but everytime i get along with the tune, it reminds me of the school production last year:( and seriously (not just saying it for the sake of it), everytime i go to this sort of new places, i always think about you guys and im always like ":(:(:( i really wish you guys can fly here cos i wanna show you these great places":(:(:(

missss youu

Monday 21 January 2008 @ 1:13 pm


this is so funny. mom asked me to transfer pics from her phone, and then i saw these. i swear there's couple more of him. then i asked who the hell is he? then she said in indo of course "this guy on the train just now, on the way to brookes, he is the most good-looking guy i've ever seen. even better than brad pitt". hahhahaha.

not much exciting/hooray/amusing things happened lately and i can even be bothered to write about it. so im just gonna sum them up with pictures, and i wanna post something thats different.

yest i went to this small city call "BATH", go click on the hyperlink to find out more but its pretty much a small town, named after its famous roman hot spring history blah blah. until now people still come for the hot spring, apparently its good for skin, blah blah. we didn't go into the pool though, it was too cold, for God's sake its like 3 degrees. but anyway it was quite worth a trip for a day-tour, good sightseeing, eventhough we know its definitely 49385904more beautiful in april, summer.


after th trip, i realize i have a passion for travelling. so decided to post this up.

im not a religious person, but it is kinda like you-have-to-go-once-in-a-lifetime-if-youre-a-catholic. you know what, cristal lets make a pact, when we're 50 or 60 something, lets arrange a holy trip to lourdes. then we can take the train, (oops sorry, by then we'll be filthy reach and we'll have private jets, esp if you marry chocfactoryman), fly over to paris and go louisvuitton craze since its so ridiculously cheap compared to other countries!

HongKong
MUST STAY IN LANGHAM PLACE HOTEL (thanks to yulow).
MUST GET SERVED BY RODENT (he's the receptionist).
MUST MAKE USE OF THE PHONE THINGO (send free international sms).
MUST BRING YOUR IPOD (each room has an ipod speaker, n dont need to bring charger).
MUST HAVE A LUNCH BUFFET IN THE HOTEL.
MUST CALL THE BELL BOY TO FIX YOUR TV, just pretend that something's up with the remote control(the one with an english name, "King", im not joking, for more enquiries ask Weijia).
and if you're not that keen on mickey&co for a start, dont even think of staying in the disneyland hotel cos you'll get sick watching disney channels in 4380845languages.
and, must take the train everywhere, eventhough we've realized that taxi costs the same. it's so thrilling the minute you hear the train is coming. run for your life to get in the damn train, squeeze in as much as you can while making sure you have all your shopping bags.
and oh yah, don't forget to write HARBOUR CITY & LANE CRAWFORD in TIMESQUARE for shopping and HUI something something, (basically its the mango dessert that is everywhere) in your travel journal.

SunnySingapore!
just make sure its not a festive season, then it's good enough:)
shopping is heaven, the normal orchard road, paragon and you know the rest. and vivo city.
and clarke quay! and also sentosa! and, (yulyn&cristal will be proud of me for saying this), FAR EAST plaza:):). note to myself; go have supper in newton when you're sober.

Indonesia-Bandung
too many to mention.HA! call me when you wanna come, free accomodation, free transportation, free factoryoutlet clothes, free food.

UK-Oxford
MUST VISIT OXFORD FOR AT LEAST A WEEK.
go to citycentre.
buy paninis along the streets (my fav filling. brie, tomato, basil leaves and tika chicken).
go look at the oxford universities
lounges/clubs, very very nice interiors.
must go to bicester village. (their version of harbour town)

UK-London
must take the doubledecker red tour bus that takes you to the landmarks.
must arrange a whole day to go to harrods.
must see Piccadilly street, shoppers will go physcho.
must go to topshop. you'll get too intimidated by the size of it, that you end up not buying anything.

Ozzeh! -PERTH
during the five years of living in perth, ive taken this into account.
must go to bellaromas and eat their chilli mussels
must go to claremont and order the chicken pizza with avocado mayonnaise pizza and the baby octopus salad.
then there's always another cafe just a shop from allanah hill, (shit i forgot the name), and order their seafood risotto.
shit, i cant think anything other than food. and the previous post, i was talking about me dieting like crazy to get a nicole ritchi figure.

seriously, now that i've travelled for more than half a day in the plane, travelling is one of my favourite thing to do. this is so cliche, but i love learning about other people's cultures and it really opens my eyes when i see this new places. i've decided in 2008, i must go to thai-bangkok!

i was reading a magazine, and i wrote a very interesting profile on pierrehardin, shoe designer. and so i went to check out on him on the internetttt. his shoes are soo gorgeouuss!


and there's this alexander mcqueen shoes that i fell in love with tooooo. its quite ghetto, but i like it. its the pink python court shoe with silver toe cap. and i would wanna own a marni short sleeve t-shirt (except its around 100 pounds each), i love their funky drawings. and you have to browse this. dolce&gabanna, then click on the one-of a kind link on the bottom right hand corner.

this may sound weird, but i really really really want a metrosexual guy friend. itd be so fun to shop with:):)

to yulow:

look. this is the day after i talked on the phone with you. haha, i finally wore the scarf.

andd awww, look what ive found!:(:(
its the freaking cheap david jones strawberry lollies that we were obssessed with for like two hours.
Friday 18 January 2008 @ 10:34 am




finished watching america's next top model cycle 9 already:) and im so damn glad that saleisha won, i liked her from the start:):)

anyway, so i was telling cristal that i wanted to go on a diet. but no, it has been three days and im far from it. i really really really wanna be nicoleritchie skinny. like i sooooo wanna be like her. you know what, just cos of that, im gonna check her height&weight......

Nicole Richie's height is 5 ft 1 in (155 cm)
US erm 'It Girl'. Richie also weighs in the 95lbs range..
(http://www.celebheights.com/s/Nicole-Richie-1596.html)

andd, 95lbs is 43.0912752 kilograms
oh shit crap!

well at least, for a start, she is as short as me. actually i might even be a couple cm taller than her. so anyway, i told cristal that; no more rice no more bread no more carbs for me starting from two days ago. but no, i have eaten rice for breakfast and nachos for lunch and heaps of yummy cakes for afternoon tea and thai food and seafood platters and other superlicious dinners!

like the one above for example, we had it for dinner. it was moroccan/spanish, and we had like couple of tapas and had this pastry filled with pistachio and honey and you eat it with plain authentic youghurt for dessert. omg, i really dont know how am i gonna be able to start on with my diet.

i know its not gonna work but i adore nicolerichie's body, it so petite!

so anyway, my dad secretly booked the extension program in curtin for me cos he really prefers me to be there. he says it so much comfier for me, cos i can move around easily there. anyway, so its booked, my momma's gonna leave for indo on monday. so im gonna just stay here for fun, and i might take up some random courses like make up and such for example. and im gonna apply for london school of fashion cos i love love love it but it starts in september. and its not like im gonna 100%chopped and stamped get it. so im gonna go back to perth and study first and if i get it, i might come back here. and it is in london, and hooray for me cos i HEART the city much much. oxford is okay, but london WOWs me. but i have this doubt that i will come back even if im accepted, cos with friends and everything there, i dont think ill be able to part with you guys, awww.

anyway, seriously i would wanna live here when im older, but i really do have to work hard, get a real good job with high pay. find a partner, who doesnt need to be extremely wealthy or inherits goldmines and stuff, but someone whos hardworking! man, theres so many people here wearing burberry and chloe and miumiu (not only bags, but the whole outfit)! driving rangerovers! and you see people like me, have to think over and over and over for one particular bag, whereelse them, just pick one out randomly cos they feel like they're not carrying enough shopping bags in their hands.

anyway, my latest cravesss.
platformm shoes. they are soo yummmyyy

btw, tide this section here is dedicated to you cos i cant be bothered to reply you through hotmail.
1. (reply to your post). omg, it is your shoe!
2. (reply to the taggie). yea i got it for only 30bucks in spore. cheap cheap cheap! and its not the normal white black colour
3. youre still a cheapskate ass for not topping up your credit
4. curtin extension is like the same thing as a normal curtin. like let say i take commerce, ill go in the same classes with you. except, if i fail a subject/unit, its a bye bye, where else if i pass which i will(!!!), i will go in straight to next semester and it will be a normal curtin just like you. extension, you need to pay more, and you are not regarded as a curtin student like you are, yes i will do same things as you but i think i wont get a certificate for the particular semester until i am one of you guys. (well i think thats how it goes anyway)
5. who cares about blehhh. its good enough you are doing that, seriously, dont care about that. its not like blehhh owns the world. and what youre doing/gonna do is definitely a positive friendly thing, blehhh can say whatever blehhh wants to say. i am so proud of you for thinking bout that.
6. you are only partially saved. why are you excluding blehhh's old admirer (HAH. you geddit).
7. paris is definitely taking cic design, confirmed stamped and chopped.
8. dont worry my mommah does the same thing
9. omg, here. new s-class and like bentley supercontinental are everywhere. even in ghetto chinatown carparks. urgggh. yest, i saw three maybach drove past me!!! but yeash, i am happy to hear that from you. goood one:):)

to paris;
i will never ever get my own puppy. its so hard to take care of. but i can always borrow louie, i dont mind borrowing him for the weekend , i dont mind picking him up (if you know where im coming from) haha, get it?

icemint;
1. mannn, how about zacchylookalike? him for play and charliechocfactory for some serious business? i totally support you
2. whats wrong with doraemon? yes i do watch hiro, i dont like him though. i think his friend is so much cuter. and dont you think suresh(he's the curly guy right?) body is hawtt..
3. youre so lovely and sweet, i know you aint being biased:) hehehe. really if i can wish for one thing now is to teleport you guys here:(


a pic i took along the way to marble arch, london. this was opposite hyde park. it was a construction site but instead of covering them with plain wood/metal thingo, they decorated it! sorry cbs to rotate it.

ok im done now. i got a novel yest, rules for saying goodbye bye katherine taylor. this time i promise im gonna finish reading it, aint gonna waste my 12.99 pounds and itll improve my esl:)

loveee ya xox,
and btw, when i think about it, louie was so freaking horny. everytime someone pets him, he will lay on his back every single time. and this red thing will pop up from his *beeeep*
rose macaroons & a cup of earl grey
Thursday 17 January 2008 @ 3:59 pm

let me warn you, its gonna be full of esl, im so tireddd

anyway, so these past few days i hvnt been blogging cos ive been watching america's next top model cycle 9 instead. it's amazing how an autistic person can be in the top6! so proud of her:) anyway, so there is less chance for me to study here. short courses starts in april. real uni course starts in september. what am i suppose to do for the time being? go back to indo? or what? and its not like i can gurantee hundred percent stampped and chopped go into the particular course in the particular school i want. so should i just apply but still go to curtin extension and wait till i get accepted? im confused!

s : i got a new cat!
m : oh for what?
s : i bring it around and stuff. like paris, but mine's a cat. i put it in my bag and i bring it everywhere!
m : ??!!!!!??


syaz you are a legend. im speechless.

anyway these past few days, ive been going to london. oh my, what a beautiful city! i love it there i love it i love it i love it. its just that in perth, i have my bestest friends and no one can replace them, tchhhawwwww (cristal's sms style). i think i might end up living in london itself if i get a school there. oxford's much safer, the people are friendlier, but mannn i lovee the city. its the most beautiful place ive ever been, everythings so happening and the shopping oooohhh ahhhh!

first, topshop. so it originated from here. so imagine a full building of topshop. i didnt even manage to look at topman, it was too big. seriously, its like a happy place, disneyland for us. first i went in, it was the maternity wear (i dont even know why i got into that entrance). then went down the escalator, and wow. huge girls section(s). there's the more formal wear, the kate moss colletion, the boutique colletion, the tall collection, the petite collection and many more! and there's even a salon and an eye plucking/threading place on the floor. and then the bottom floor, it was the shoe section. ohh myyyyyyy! then theres also a whole floor of accessories/ random topshop gifts, hair wigs (???!!), candies&lollies, stockingsssss andd mannyy more. that is just topshop. similar shopss were like dorothy perkins, miss selfridge and more! and the gap and fcuk stores were just as huge! and that is just some of the big brands. then there's selfridges, you probably have heard of them. they said it was famous for tourists. anyway, its like a whole department store of goodies, like lane crawford. they have eveyrthing, fendi, miumiu, marcjacobs, lv, gucci, loewe, eveyrhtingggg.


and no, that wasnt even the best shopping district here. harrods! omg! it is H U G E. mom and i spent 8 hours straight in there and my legs are killiiing me. they have EVERYTHING TOOO. first we went to the food galore! omg, they have heaps of sections and so manyy things. when i went to this chocolate one, i swear i thought to myself "how i wish cristal is here she can go crazy". then we went to eat pizza and i got the similar thought of tum2s mom. it was thin crust, and wood fired and they have yummy saladss too!


they have like 5 different cafes in there, all with different concepts, from like victorian to like kids (vy similar to the one near the buzzlightyear in disneyland). and they have the best rose macaroon, even beat the one at bakerzin! and then we went to the clothing section and the have eveyrthing. all the brands, and even the sunglasses section, make up everything, bookshop, homeware. its beyond words, it is an eye opener really.

i really wanna study here, but in the same time not. i mean, perth is already co comfortable. the company, the house, and grandma&brother is there, and i can drive so i dont have to take public transport and list goes on. and i miss everyone:( how i wish i can pack all them up and ship it here:( i just realized something, when you're single, you really do appreciate your friends more. you realize that they are the ones that is gonna stick with you:) awwwwww. i wish i have aladdin's magic lamp, or doraemons magic door and vooooom, all of you guys are hereee.


last but not least, mom and i had a romantic dinner at this thai rest. place was so beautiful, its like a mini garden! thai food reminds me of dusit thai. i miss the free syazzes treats at dusit thait, the madness, the massive orders(yet, therell be nothing left cos yulyn will finishh it up), the loud chatter&laughter, the food is good, but the company was the best thing about it!


i cant wait to see cristals pretty eyesssX)
regular blogger.
Sunday 13 January 2008 @ 3:27 pm

remember about a couple post ago i posted a picture of someone living in the tree cos it was gonna be torn down? well today, there were more protests. you can see the policeman (in neon yellow pushing them away)

i have been so hardworking, i have been giving new updates every single day:) two main reason;
un. a diary for my own benefit
deux. to encourage people to visit oxford for holiday one day, cos seriously you will regret it if you dont.

anyway im not gonna write heaps today cos i have to wake up tmrw morning and wash my hair. we're goinnn to lawndawn tmr! yayyyy, gonna do some sightseeing and hopefully get a school! i ain delayinggg no more. supposed to go today, but everyone's too tired. so instead, it was me&mom day! so we went to the citycentre today again cos it was so convenient and vyvy close! only like a two stopss away! bus ride was 80pounds per person. but if you have a student card, its 3 pounds a day and you can go anywhere, everywhere.

not a very flattering pic but i wanna show you the city. similar like Perth, two main street, but this one is bigger and they have everything.



and mom was so fascinated w the shop, lush! told her so many times they have it in perth and spore and everywhere. and i swear its exactly the same but she insist on going in cos she reckons its different. pic was taken accidentally, facial xpression thanks to this celery/brocolli/mint & other weirdyuckyveggies squished and blended together which is supposedly good scrub(?).

okay so anyway aft the city, went home had dinner cos we felt like cooking. anyway then went out to friends' house for a while to take some dvds for mom which i forgot to grab before i left. anyway, cos it was so cold i couldnt be bothered to look at the bus timetable and routes at the bus stop. instead i decided to just hail when any bus pass by. so when this red one came i went in and ask the driver whether it'll stop at st.clements , then he thought for a while and smiled and said "hop in". so i did then asked him how much is it. then he's like no it's okay and told me to sit near the front. i just realised that the bus that i took wasn't even suppose to pass the street but what a nice and thoughtful bus driver, and it was for free:):):)


look at my sock isnt it adorable. its so comfy and thick and warm and i bought it for less than 5pounds! others were of me camwhoringgg in the toilet.

will update tmrw with pics of london:) yay

replying to tide(haha);
.tell your brother, yes indeed!
.but luella here its a whole freaking store and it was one saleeeee. beat that
and btw, have fun in kl:):) say hi to noodila, and please dont be mean to her cats.
when too good is too much to handle
Saturday 12 January 2008 @ 1:04 pm


(upside down, cant be stuffed to rotate it)
pic is dedicated to peeloh's uncle, 5low. sorry not gonna mention names cos i aint making a new blog just in case anything happens. btw, its BOSE outlet, i purposely took the pic for him!

woke up quite early today considering i slept at 4 plus plus, did some housework:)
vacuumed, cleaned the kitchen, wiped every corner till everythings spick and span:) then went to have some breakfast in the city.

then went to this place which is so similar to harbourtown. i swear the owner/creator of harbourtown saw this place and got the idea from here. its exactly the same concept but duh, everythings so much nicer. these are just some of the shops there.


for amelias sake. i remember we talked about the "geek" shirt and when i saw the shop i haddd to take a pic for her:)

jimmmychoo. sorry was running when taking the pic.

anyway, they have everything like mulberry, fredperry, poloralphlauren which was like 2 storey high and damn huge, burberry, ck underwear, and ck itself, ferragamo and many many manyy more. and its the outlet, so pretty much the cheap stuff. and obv its real. burberry scarves are like 40pounds and ferragamo shoes were 60pounds. and ck bras were 12pounds and undies were like 4 for 15 pounds! and its not like the rejected ones. theyre still vy vy nice, and the stuff here are like the new season ones in overseas.

anyway, just when i found the most perfect leather jacket, size was too big. it was luella, and like 50% discount, brown in colour and its soooo nice. so instead, mom bought it. so im sitll leather jacket huntinng. i swear after going to the place, hongkong shopping is nothing. the post until here is pretty much dedicated to ylow. i know youre into these branded stuff and for your brother too. seriously, you just need to pay a lil bit more for the flight, and omg, you get so much better stuff with a reasonable price! you'll go crazy here i swearr.



obv i borrowed moms shopping bags just for the pic but i got myself a school bag. finally found a huge bag for school aft hunting for sooo long!

ok so anyway, i have this same feeling like the other day. everytime when im out with just the housemate and her friends, im not really feeling it. as in, i think cos they're much older and they have much freedom. and their party hard like a rockstar is too much for me. heaps of people here are extremely wild. and i know that im still too young for that. and its not that because their older and they treat me differently, not that at all. theyre all very independent and extremely nice and friendly. its just like for me myself, too much freedom is not that nice. so thats why im just gonna try it out with the short course here. but ive decided that if i dont stay here, ill come for random visits every year, shopping and sightseeing is way too good to be missed here!

thats it for now i cbs writing for more and i feel like pooing and playing my ds landtouchbomberman its so damn good. not the normal bomberman, its like the adventure game. its damn shiok! hundredpercent stampped and chopped obssessed with it,im so hip.

loveeeyaaaaaa
i miss perth somehow.
anyway, yulyn or anyone else in fact you should totally definitely come here.
its so much different from perth and much more than what you expect!
whatt a goood holidayy treat!
would you like a cup'pa tea?
Friday 11 January 2008 @ 7:10 pm

jack and the beanstalk cake:):) what a smartt idea

im not gonna do much wrting cos imm way too tireddd its 3:24nowww
anyway, so today we searched for school. looked at oxford brookes university. they have some short courses but i wouldnt wanna take any because i rather take them in london itself. 1, it's only a month and i dont mind travelling an hour plus everyday. 2, the bus is so comfy and safe and has free wireless and since mesa is now so cool and hip with technology even if she doesnt bring her laptop she can use her funky gadget, ipod touch and watch youtube or smth. 3, theres so much sightseeing in londonn so aft class i can bumm around. 4, if i do go into university here (as in serious undergrad courses), its most prolly gonna be in oxford brookes so why would i wanna take short course there too?
so, im still gonna go school/college hunting next week.


anyway then ate chinese for lunch and went to more sightseeing. we went to this cathedral which has a vyvy tall tower and u can climb up the stairs to look at the whole view of oxford city. sad thing was that the weather was pretty gloomy, dark sky and therefore buildings didnt look tt pretty.



and this one, right beside the cathedral, its one of many oxford university library. apparently you can find every single book that was published in the uk there.


the earmuffs were threepounds:):) and its so warm and its foldable so it doesnt take up too much space in the bag. and i got this homesock thing for sixpounds and its so warm and comfyy. i swear ive been dreaming since young where i can use all these winter accessories. i just see them on tv and i go woaaah (kampung style) and now its so normal here. and btw, i havent bought anything pricey and instead ive been a smartshopper buying all these cheap things:) arent you proud that im not as indo anymoreee:):)

anyway that pic was take at about 5pm! so early yet so dark alrdy. after that, got home and changed and went to london cos mom wanted to see the casinooos. they trusted my fake indo id and i went in. not much luck though. but anyway, it just hit me that i dont really need the fake id anymore soon because ill be eighteen in 3 months!

dearest yulyn;
1; i will take pics of some pretty face preppy boys soon
2; cool, then we can talk for free
3; i find the topshop ones pretty nice. i think im gonna get a black one from there and its around 50pounds ish. then im gonna get another brown one but from a local branddd, something nicer cos im planning to get like those casual hoodie one in the black. btw, what colour is the sportsgirl one? and btw, howd u see sportsgirl arent u still in mlys?
4; go to facebook and click on renaa. shes not my housemate yet but she will be after moms gone.

and btw, can someone check out the price for uggboots in aust? (not any other brands. it has to be UGGboots) cos im planning to wear them to school. heaps of ppl wear them here and its not like a bad angmoh thing here. theyre extremely exp here, its like 180pounds! thankyou

anyway, seriously if anyone is still free and have nothing much to do in the holidays (before uni starts), i strongly strongly strongly agree for you to come for holiday. im usually not into sightseeing, but man theyreee sooo unbelivablyy beautiful! on sunday we're gonna go to london again to see all the main spots such as the big ben, london bridge, madamme tussaurds (dont care bout the spelling), harrods, etc etccc. and i really really really wanna watch a musical. apparenty highschool musical is on, and billy elliot just came out as well. remember him from many many years ago? the little gay ballet boy? but seriously, comee here and ill bringg you arounnnddd.

missss youuu guyyyysss
please if you guys have time, seriously come hereeeeeeee.
and tell your parents dont worry cos itss damnn safe in oxford.
you can even walk around in the streets alone at this time of the day and no one will touch you or anything.

you know, now my eyes have opened. and now i really feel bad for all the times that i have been so stubborn when you guys told me. im such a bitch and omg i feel so dumb for times when asshole dont allow me to go places or times when i leave u guys on the spot cos hes pissed. accidentally saw one of his pictures (and didnt search for more) and ewwwwww he's actually damn damn damn damn damn gross.
say hello to gloomy weather
Thursday 10 January 2008 @ 4:36 pm


had afternoon bite in this cafe and its so unique. so many random writings on the wall like the one above.

its 0037 now, which is 0937 in perth and 0837 in malaysia/singapore.
friend of mine just downloaded skype for me and i was so tempted to call you guys.
BUT knowing all of you(esp cristal), itll piss the shit outta you if the phone starts ringing around this hour.


fourteen hours flight wasnt that bad at all actually! eventhough i didnt get much sleep, time flies somehow. didn't watch that many movies either too! ive watched 80% of the movies available. so ended up watching the nanny diaries(again), daddy day camp and random korean shows. and i transit in spore for like few hours, and they just opened the new terminal (three) on that day! so good thing was that urmm.. i was the first few people who stepped in the terminal? and who boarded from there? but the lounges were still not ready and they're still vacuuming and stuff. but i salute singapore, really. the terminal is wow-to-the-max. there are sooo many branded shops, you wont get bored even if youre in the airport for like a day or smth. and the thing i love most about the new terminal is that there's so much greeneries and you dont feel like its in a closed building (if you know what i mean). there are even birds flying around!

anyway, so lawndawn. not exactly living in that town, im currently in oxford (an hour and a half drive from london). yes, it is where oxford university is. one of the best places ive seen. perfect for sight-seeing and its such a perfect place to study. you can walk around at midnight, and there are still many youngsters cycling and walking in the streets, and theyre not dangerous as well. yes they do whistle and shout here and there, but people here are friendly. so anyway, its pretty much like perth, compared to like london which is more central like melb or sydney. BUT they have nightlife. the shops here are old(exterior wise) and antique, but its all the good shops. they have like GAP,topshop,FCUK etc everywhere and they even have like those higher class branded ones too (havent seen them yet but will soon). and im living in like a small house which is near the central area (only an alley away) which is safe and my neighbours are oxford boys:):) and in the afternoons, in cafes and stuff there's so many tall young preppy pretty face college guys (most of them goes to oxford uni), reading novels and having coffee at cafes. and the library is still full at 4am!

So anyway, im not sure if im going stay here to take bachelorsdegree and everything. but im definitely taking a short course and ill see if i like it cos uni starts in september anyway. and short courses are only a months long which is good cos if i dont like it ill still be in time for curtin in perth! and friends wise, have only met a couple, and they are nice people but of course no one can beat you guys:) im still vy tired (jet lagged) but will update soon to occupy time too.




its like a curse to take pic of the phone booth when you step in london




the three pictures above, one of the most unique hotels ive ever seen. you probably have heard of this before. so last time, it was a jail (like a real one). and they didnt change th foundation, only renovate here and there. and the rooms and structure is still like a jail. didnt get to see the rooms but seriously, its one of the coolest thing ive ever seen.



so the above pictures, is of like a small tent on a tree in front of a cathedral. so the deal is that this tree was supposed to be torn down. But people go on strike cos they dont want this particular tree to be torn down or anything. so someone actually lives up there to make sure it wont happen. imagine living up on a tree in like a winter (raining occasionally) condition!

bye
i miss (in no particular order):
yulyn syaz cristal eepyn nadirah weijia michy mea
soo much is not funnnnneh

please pick up your phone when theres private no calling
will call you sooon (dont worry itll be at appropriate time ill makesure ill count the hours first!)
