In loving memory.
I remember when Georgie died, i cried like crazy over a few weeks, even in school. Some of them thought it was a joke and kept shouting out Georgie's name in class and idk, somehow just hearing his name made me start breaking into tears. Yes, i was that sensitive lol.

I had him for 3 years. Who ever heard of a hamster lasting that long! He was so pampered and well trained that he didn't bite anyone or poop around the house. Every night we would let him out of his cage and let him wander around. Was funny seeing a tiny little thing scurrying around our living room floor while we watched tv haha.

He definitely grew in our hearts and died eventually due to old age. I remember my mom and i literally went to every vet because we couldn't stand to watch him suffer but none of them wanted to put him to sleep. Georgie got so weak until he couldn't clean his eyes so he couldn't open them (due to eye dirt making it shut). Mom would slowly clean them for him everyday and softly talk and comfort him. It was just so painful to watch.


He died after i came home from tuition one night. We cried so bad and buried him in our backyard in the dark.

And then there's Jagger. I just introduced him in my previous post and now he's gone :(


Jagger was having a serious case of diarrhoea and i made an appointment with the vet. But yesterday, he was so weak that whenever he tried to walk he'd just topple over. I tried pushing the appointment earlier but the vet said they were full so i prayed that he could just bear another 2 more hours.

Then i saw that he was now lying over and on the verge of dying. I just couldn't stand to see him that way so i got ready and just went over to the vet without changing my appointment. When they saw his condition (and my worried face lol), they attended to him but with bad news. His heartbeat was irregular and his temperature awfully low and even if they gave him fluids, the most he'd last would be another day. So i agreed when the vet said they should put him to sleep to end his sufferring. Just looking at him lying on the table made me cry so bad because there was nothing i could do to help him.

Its just been a couple of weeks since i'd had him but he was the reason i looked forward to coming home. Having him made staying at home a lot more comforting cause i was no longer alone. I'd always tickle and snuggle him and say bye when i was leaving. Its just so different now.


Jagger baby, i miss you so much and i hope you know how much i love you. You may have been in my life for only a short period of time but i've always loved you from the start. Rest in peace my little baby. Who knows, you might even meet Georgie up there.


I love you both. Always and forever.

P/s I know what people think. They're so small, why go through all that trouble? The thing is, they're just like having a dog or a cat, only smaller in size. The bond and love you share is just as much. And if you love animals just as much as i do, any loss is a massive heartbreak.

Her world goes on.
I stopped blogging last time cause i haven't been doing anything but i'm starting to blog again now because i have nothing to do lol. 

I finally watched The Adventures of Tintin and it reminded me so much of my childhood! They had all the similar scenes from the comics and it was so weird putting voices to the faces. Plus i finally know Snowy is a mini schnauzer haha. Always thought he was a poodle :P



Out of all this, i have 14 of them :) And i think there's more, just not shown here.

I also just recently started downloading the series 'Once Upon a Time' and i'm hooked on it! I can't wait to see how it turns out. I really want them to remember! Its also pretty cool to see the Disney characters in a whole different light.

Also, i've got someone to keep me company now. Meet Jagger!


He's still quite untrained though and freaks out at the slightest of noises. Gotta get him used to his new environment. He's too cute that i like to tickle him sometimes hehe. I just love my little bundle of fur.

I know life right now is stable. I've got my masters to finish up and a job that helps me with my future. But somehow i can't help feeling that i want something more than this. I've always wanted to pursue my love for photography, to travel around the world taking pictures or even work for National Geographic and take wildlife pictures. Or maybe become a travel or food journalist like what you see on tv. I dunno, just something out of this comfort zone. I'm tired of waking up and doing the exact same thing every day, every week for the rest of my life.

I saw the blog of Sonia's wedding photographer and i think her work is simply amazing. She takes such stunning pictures and has even traveled around for photography. You can have a look here.

I know its far from reality to be able to do something like that but i just wish i could. One day, hopefully.

much love

To the boyfie.
It's my baby boy's birthday today! And tomorrow will be our first anniversary. 


We don't really have much pictures together cause he dislikes taking pictures lol. Sad case of picture memories eh. But we def have been through a lot and i'm thankful to see how we've grown in this.

Love you bie and i miss you. Really wish i could be there right now to spend this moment together :(

Part of me.
I'm so bored! Been sleeping like super early lately (9-10pm) so i get up really early and get most of my work done. Most of my due dates are soon so i'm finding myself with less things to keep me preoccupied. More time to study i suppose :/


Anyways, i finally watched Friends with Benefits and its so hilarious! But at the end, he was sorta acting like a jerk. I guess most guys are like that (story of all the men in my life) where they blame girls and their feelings pfft.



Last minute cramming before my quiz. Totally bombed btw. It was so hard and not enough time! :(

Went to Bondi yesterday just to reward myself from such a stressing week. Saw some really nice clothes for sale but sobs, no money. Can't wait to get a job that'll actually earn me money. Actually come to think of it, i sorta started to feel like i prefer working over studying. I guess i'm starting to get a little fed up with all the research and whatnot.


Indulged in Max Brenner! Om nom nom.

On a random note, i introduced mom to Prada handbags hee. She wanted something like Birkin but as we both can't afford something like that, Prada's the cheaper alternative. It looks a little similar to a Birkin and is much soothing to the wallet lol. Gonna save up to get one! Eventually.


I can't decide which colour i want though. I like white, baby pink, baby blue or black. Decisions decisions.

Btw Booniee just skyped with me :) Its been awhile since i talked to my best friend. He was always the one that comforted me even when i lashed out at him sometimes. I miss all my friends. I hope i can find someone over here that i can relate to.

much love

New shanghai.
I am so bloated from dinner right now. Aunt wanted to pass and grab some stuff from me so she invited me to join her for dinner. We went to Chatswood (which is north of Sydney) to have xiao long bao mmnn!


Pan fried pork dumpling. My favourite!


Shepherd's purse and pork with sesame butter, chilli oil and soy sauce.


Lamb dumpling.





Salt and pepper deep fried tofu.

Black sesame glutinous rice balls with sweet rice wine.

We actually ate a whole lot more than that but i forgot to take pictures and some dishes were repeated.

Remember how i said i wanted to make a change in my routine and explore around? Well my weekend definitely ended great. Thinking i should start turning my blog into a food one haha. Gonna start looking up food places and maybe go around trying them fortnightly. Anyone wanna be my food buddy?

Fouratefive.
Finally met up with Norman for lunch in Surry Hills this afternoon. The whole street has such awesome cafes and vintage stores. Kept thinking of my girls, especially you Mel! You're so gonna love walking down that street. The vintage stores were just amazing!

We ate at a place called fouratefive (ironically its on 485 Crown St). Would love to try out more cafes now that i know how to get there.



I love homemade meatballs especially with melted cheese like this mmmnn :9




I wanna get a pet to keep me company over here :( 

We just walked down the whole of Crown St before i caught the bus back. Had a group meeting in uni which lasted for like, probably 10minutes? Lol. Feel so busy/am gonna be busy this week and the next cause of all the quizzes and assignments due. Just a month plus before first semester is over!


Ending with a random picture of myself :) Haha i'm starting to camwhore a lot these few days. Such a self-entertainer LOLOL.

much love

Anytime.

I am gonna make a change in my routine! I can't go on just going to uni and work for the whole year here in Sydney. That's just mad! Thinking to start exploring around during weekends, only if the weather will let me that is. Also need to wait until June/July till i can get my hands on the dslr once again.

It was free week last week and i went over to Perth for 5days to visit the boyfie and my friends :D Didn't do much though cause i ended up sick and losing my voice on the day i arrived. Lol it was so embarrassing when random people started talking to me or asking me stuff and i could hardly answer them. And my gosh, it was also so tiring just trying to talk. I felt like i had to shout and even then my voice came out in squeaks. Had to stay in bed the entire day. What a way to start my trip ey.

Look how much Jacob has grown! I remember carrying him around as a little puppy on the day my friend bought him naaww.
Tried out a new bubble tea store.

Had lunch plans with my girls at this cafe called Toast. I've been to East Perth a lot last time, but mostly at night and by car. The area is so soothing and relaxing and oh-so classy!

Its been a while since i had a full breakfast mmnn.
Got to meet Annie too! Been so long since i caught up with her.

Sadly the other girls couldn't make it. Joy had to leave after lunch and since we had nothing else to do, Annie took us to Koko Black (cause Mel hasn't been there). Massive indulgences on that day whooo!


Went clubbing that night but a lot of people couldn't make it in the end. Was pretty much depressing lol and sadly the clubbing scene isn't as happening as it used to be. I remember back then we used to have so much fun. That night there were like guys everywhere and they kept coming closer i felt so insecure. You never know what they might suddenly do :/ Lesson learnt: i'm a little too old for this now LOL. I'm just gonna stick to KK clubs from now on.


Sigh gonna miss the baby boy. He sent me off to the airport and kept wishing i could stay longer. Long distance may suck but its how you cope with the test.

Random thoughts at work.
Gonna be taking my lunch break soon so i thought, "why not post a quickie here". I must say, life has been rather good lately. Its still pretty lonely here but never boring since i'm pretty much occupied every day of the week. There's uni and work on the weekdays and by the time i come home, i'm too tired to do anything else except go online and watch a little tv. And then on the weekends, i just stay at home and catch up on all the uni work and assignments. So productive eh haha.

And i'm starting to feel so much like an adult now. My workplace is 1hr 15mins away from where i live and i need to take the bus and train to get there and also go grocery shopping after work. Its got me feeling like a mother already LOL.

Hahaha but yes, life right now is stable and i'm happy. There are indeed a lot of people watching over me :)

Tonight we are young.
Hello!

Right, so i haven't been blogging much lately cause i pretty much haven't been doing anything :( Yeah, sad face. After i moved into my new place, my daily routines just turned into going to uni and work. I now find myself tired and in bed before midnight and waking up automatically wayy before my alarm rings. I'm turning into an oldie! :O

I finally went out last week for high tea with the bub at QVB. The place was so classy and i kept picturing me and my girls sipping on our teas and gossiping just like in 'Sex and the City' teehee. I wish they could come over and visit me. Its tough finding friends here sigh *forever alone moment.

Haha i wore something that matches!

It was really filling and we didn't get round to touching the top-most tier before we gave up. And its like really pricey. All that was actually $86! :S So definitely a once-in-a-while thing!

Laura met up with her bf after that so i looked around Zara and bought myself a top, just for the sake of it (cause i haven't shopped in forever). And well, also cause the top was nice and reasonably priced hehh. Hoping Topshop and H&M decides to open in Sydney! There are a lot of nice stores around but at least H&M will complement my wallet more hahaha.

Went to uni to leach off the Internet cause i still don't have connection at my place and halfway through, my charger suddenly died and caused my laptop to shut down. So i went to the Apple store in Bondi and they replaced it for free! :D My warranty ended a week ago so they were nice not to charge me for it (apparently it costs $100+).

So yeah, that pretty much sums up what i've been up to. Its so miserable not to have any friends here. I can't explore that much places and food without company. Sometimes i feel like i made the wrong move in coming here :/

On a brighter note, tickets to Melb are dirt cheap and i might buy my tickets soon. Planned dates are for the free week in September. Just waiting on Booniee to confirm with me on when he's available.

Till then, byee!

much love
