Finally updating!!!

Feb 18th Friday - Touched down after 7 hour flight sitting next to the most annoying man ever. No offence but the Vietnamese guy couldn't speak English. Neither could he get the hint to stop leaning over to my side. He was the most inconsiderate person EVER!! Bah, at least on my right hand side was this sweet China girl called Du Ling Yan. She's doing her business major as a post graduate in UQ St Lucia as well. Watched Raise Your Voice, Without A Paddle and CSI. Loved Raise Your Voice, Hilary Duff was awesome. Maybe I'll borrow the DVD again on day.

My luggage took FOREVER to get out. Two bags and two boxes. Hahaha... Not forgetting the two badminton rackets, my backpack, my slingbag and my laptop. *PHEW*

The taxi driver was really nice, and defintely one in a million. The taxi driver was female. XD But she was really friendly too!! Drove to Xiao Gu's house hoping the traffic would be fine. It was, but we were doomed to stopping at EVERY traffic light. ^^"

FINALLY reached Xiao Gu's house only to find her out, seeing she had sent the boys to school. The opposite neighbour however had workers over building the fence and seemed to take PARTICULAR interest in me as I lugged my luggage up the stairs. -_____-" Riiiight. Perverts?? Or just curious? I have got NO idea.

Xiao Gu and I spent the morning and early afternoon just lounging around, preparing lunch. I haven't touched any cooking utensils for so long that I kinda spoilt lunch. XD Didn't cook the pasta long enough. LOL. I slept half the afternoon away though. Jet lag and lack of sleep on the flight overnight.

The boys were excited to see me and ran into my room shouting my name. I heard them though and dashed under the bed to hide. Hahaha... Unfortunately, Xiao Gu had gone to the supermarket so I had to go down and help. Took out everything that was to be given to the boys. Clothes from Er Gu, (Bernie/Brenda, tell your Mum they love the clothes and they said thanks) badminton rackets, shuttlecocks and net, dartboard, inflatable crocodile (IT HAS A WHOLE MUM!!!) and the Incredibles light thingy (^^p). Mum, if you're reading this which I'm sure you are, they loved every single thing. ^^

After the thrill of getting so many new things wore off, they dragged me down to the backyard, played some badminton before making me swim with them. Well Aaron did. Nicholas can't due to an ear infection. Xiao Gu came in later to play Marco Polo with us. Totally fun. Can't wait till Nicholas gets better and all 4 of us can play.

Feb 19th Saturday - Nothing much today, just that Aaron had cricket and Nicholas stayed at home. They woke me up really early however and I still had jetlag. Was SO TIRED!!! We went to see the musical Mama-mia at 1.30pm though. It was totally awesome, the songs were taken from ABBA and I'm so wanting to buy the cd now! The cd for Mama-mia. Xiao Gu wants the ABBA one though. Haha. Watched Rosemary and Thyme. Some English show with drama and mystery all rolled into one. A great show to look out for next to Cold Case, CSI, CSI: Miami and Desperate Housewives. ^___^

Feb 20th Sunday - Woke up early, went to church. Came back painted the side walls outside the house. Not sure how I got roped into doing it but I was. I don't even paint at home! Mum and Dad can attest to that surely! Hahaha, but it was good fun, kept trying to paint the lizard whenever it appeared. Finished it all in one day. Got pushed into the pool by Aaron. Played Marco Polo with Xiao Gu and Aaron, Nicholas is still out of the water due to the ear infection. He played badminton with Uncle Al though. He's getting better, I'm sure they'll be able to beat Desmond and Daniel this time around! ^^

Feb 21st Monday - Had this super super weird dream/nightmare. I dreamt that I was painting the wall. -____- And in my dream I was holding the paint roller and trapped a lizard in a square I had painted. Then I placed the roller next to it, about to roll over the lizard when it suddenly JUMPED onto my hand. I screamed and screamed in my dream and finally woke up. Hahaha... Told Xiao Gu and Uncle Al about it, they laughed. Picked the boys up from school. Xiao Gu sent them for music and I went to the library to check my mail. OH MY GOD! Man, inbox almost full... -_- I need internet!!! CSI and Desperate Housevwives is on!!

Feb 22nd Tuesday - Xiao Gu gave me hell about the house. She is such a bitch sometimes and I almost felt like crying. Mum called. Least that wasn't so bad. Watched Survivor and CSI and CSI: NY and Real Crime. 3 crime shows straight. Super awesome!! Watched the bollywood movie Bride and Prejudice with Mina, Isabel and Karin today too. It was totally awesome!! And very entertaining too.

Feb 23rd Wednesday - Managed to sort out timetable stuff today at library. Couldn't check email. Urgh, man I hate the library. Why do we have to book a computer?? Argh!! Picked the boys up from school again. Don't know why but everytime I say I'm picking them up they jump for joy and yell. Haha... Guess they must love me tons. ^^ Aaron has been pestering me about the One Piece movies. I think I left them back in Singapore. >.< Shiats, sorry Aaron... Cooked fried rice, the boys loved it. :P

Feb 24th Thursday - Lysha and Alvin landed this morning. Shifted all my boxes over to the new house in a taxi. Had a hard time carrying everything in and stuff. So freaking tiring!! My room is ok, I have a balcony. ONLY COMPLAINT IS THE CLOSET SPACE!!! ARRRRGH!!!

Feb 25th Friday - Xiao Gu dropped me off with the rest of my luggage at the new house today. The three of us caught a lift to Lutchwyche to look at mattresses. Got an ensemble for myself. Looked around at the 'nearby' second hand furniture shops. Lady at Snooze said "5 minutes walk". Turned out to be 1km away!! >.< We walked ALL the way there. Very very tiring.

Feb 26th Saturday - The house is clean!! I've unpacked! Bought my desk and a chair. The bedside tables were delivered. My room is looking more and more like a room now. And I've already put up all my posters too. All 26 of them!! XP Landlady came today, showed her all the faults of the house. Unpacked most of my boxes and have sorted out my clothes and all. Can't wait for my desk to come in. Went to a cyber cafe with Alvin today. Checked my email, 98% full in one, 65% in the other! Phew... Hahaha... Did I mention I just influenced Alvin into watching Naruto as well?? XP Lysha cooked beef rendang tonight. I'll be cooking pasta and fried rice next! ^^ Heehee...

Feb 27th Sunday - Went to church in the morning with Lysha then headed down to Chinatown to do more grocery shopping. We've been doing a lot lately and now the fridge is almost full! YAY!! Sigh, uni starts tomorrow. Don't really feel like going. Better sleep early! Out.

Feb 28th Monday - First day of uni. Woke up at 7am to get ready and all. First class was at 9. Lysha and Alvin start at 8! Muahaha... Hehe, I'm gloating. :P Uni was ok, I checked with the second hand bookshop and I'm going to be selling my books tomorrow!! Yippee!! Maybe I can get some extra cash. Visited Nyasha today just to say hi and all. He wants me to clean his room for him. -___-" Hahaha... Cooked dinner tonight. Fried rice. It was nice. Then I headed over to Isabel's place and watched Desperate Housewives.

Mar 1st Tuesday - Woohoo, its a new month, time to change my template. :P Nice?? I like it. It's so red!! Anyway, sold my books today and when they get sold to someone else I get the cash!! ^^ Found my ring today, was in the washing and an extra S$10 in my jeans pocket when I put it on today. Haha, I'm rich! At Isabel's house now. Heehee... ^^
