Pages of a novel

Hi guys... today two things happened.
One good one bad. 
Actually you're all probably going to laugh. This morning... I woke up to make breakfast. I was talking to my mum whilst chopping bread, telling her that I 'left my brain in my physics exam' and then I cut my finger (:" It was pretty deep too because I was literally sawing on the bread awoeifn. It was such a great way to start my day and all, along with my 8:00am prac. 

 BUT... it was all worth it when I got my assignment back :) 
The only mark I lost was for "your work provides a vivid and highly engaging response to the topic by using appropriate storytelling writing style for each task." So basically I lost marks because I didn't put pictures in etc. :') 

Anyways, i'm off for tonight. Happy birthday to hannah btw !

Hello everyone :) 
I finished my physics exams today so I went with some friends (vic, pk, tam, justin & joon) to go 'celebrate'. Hahaha, we find so many excuses to go out and eat. Yes, even though we haven't actually finished all our exams we still find the chance to go chill. Cause we're cool. 
 Almost perfect photo, except a tiny bit blurry ): BUT, our first almost complete group photo!!! 

We were thinking of going Nandos for lunch but ended up being attracted into Peony by the sign outside with all the pretty pictures of food. The prices were quite decent though, some rice dishes were even $6.95. 
 Pk is beautiful 
 Victoria's dish looked so good, I fully regretted ordering two small dishes instead of this one. So good relaxing after a exam. On the way we saw a bunch of other people from our cohort heading back to QUT to go to the anatomy lecture or something. How our group rolls=  chill heaps and then major cram together toward assessment period. 
 Tam's Karaage chicken 
 Justin's katsudon which he didn't finish even the half of. What a wasteful child tsktsk.
 My Xiao long bao. They weren't that good though ): didn't compare to 鼎泰豐 (a restaurant I went to in taiwan). There was barely any soup inside and the skin was too thick. Okay i'm so picky. I blame the fact that the first time I tried xiao long bao was at that restaurant, which is famous for them. 
I also ordered avocado sushi, it wasn't all that filling though, since there were only four (yes i can count, the other one was just not in the picture). Actually justin begs to differ, he knows I'm actually really stupid HAHAHA, so does joon because I'm in his prac classes and he witnesses my brain blank moments which happen just a little to often for my liking. 
 Take note guys, justin looks like he's pro and I suppose he is.... so pro he scored a ball for my team and helped us win. HAHAHA. During this time we also discovered Pk has a hidden talent for pool. Seriously, the girl was owning it. Afterwards, we didn't really want to go home so we went to Hazel tea to pig out again. Well more like Tam, justin & I. Victoria and Joon went and bought ice cream from a korean store. 

My coconut milk and red bean thingy... i can't really remember the name. 

Awww aren't they such cuties. I want to kidnap them all ;) 

We still didn't want to go home after this so we went into Myers and sat on a sofa for almost two hours just talking. One of the retail assistants came over after a while to 'adjust the price tag on the sofa'. We got the hint and awkwardly left. HAHA. 

T'was a good day. Now for more procrastinating!!! I think i'm actually starting to enjoy university life properly. I can't imagine going back to high school anymore, all that stress. One thing i'll tell you guys, university exams are SO much straight forward than high school ones and in my opinion, much easier. Keep working hard, high school students! 

Good night :)

Okay, so today our uni lecturer told us that for our anatomy assignments....

150 people got a 7 (85%-100%) 
45 people got a 6 (75%-84%) 
5 people got a 5 (65%-74%) 

and nobody got anything lower than that. Now that is kind of reassuring yet depressing at the same time. I suck at exams and I was hoping assignments would've averaged my marks so that I wouldn't be below everyone but since everyone aced the assignment (:" Just goes to show how competitive my course is. Oh well. 

On a brighter note, I now have a temporary source of income ;) Two ads on my blog. Hahahaha omg life of a jobless person. I really need a job.

Hi guys, I'm meant to be studying right now but I've kind of gotten sick of it for the moment. I still have two lectures to cover but I'm feeling weirdly calm about it (yes even considering my physics exam is tomorrow). I'm going to regret this so bad. 
Oh and I've also been addicted to candy crush for the past few days now. This is so weird, I've never been addicted to games before. Okay probably because I've been stuck on level 29 for ages now. I finally solved it today. Yeah okay, I suck at games and now I sounds like a loser kayyy. I've been borrowing my brother/mother's iPhone alot these days to play candy crush and take photos, I'm starting to see the convenience of owning a smart phone.... now I just need to find a job so I can buy myself one. 

Anyway, today this mysteriously came in the mail ^ my so called 'new cinebuzz card'. So stalkerish man, I just signed up last time so I could use my cinemas gift card and now they access the details I put in to promote more stuff hahaha. Too bad I don't go out to watch movies enough for it to be worth it. I should really make use of it though, since its $6.50 for university students like me. I can't believe I once paid $13.50 for a movie ticket there. 
Okay I should go back to study .... fingers crossed the test won't be too hard. I'm so slack its not even funny. Seriously can't wait till the holidays start. Good luck to anyone else who also has assessments :) Yes, both university and highschool students like us. Hopefully by the time we get a full-time job, life will be heaps better. Good night :)

I was texting my brother just now....

me: hey can you get me a small mcChicken meal and add cheese to the burger? 
jed: ok
me: Oh and a apple pie 
jed: woops i forgot to tell them to add cheese, oh well. I bought a cheeseburger though, so i'll just take the cheese off that and put it on yours. 


Yes, this is how we get along.

 Hi guys,
For some reason I've actually been weirdly tired for the past two days, I wonder why. Its not even the lack of sleep, usually that's not a problem. Oh well. It's been quite cold but I really prefer this weather over that in summer. Finally plucked up the courage to wear jeans (i usually don't like to since I have abnormally short legs (:" ). Well, i guess I can always cheat with wedges. 

This week, I still skipped a few lectures since they were for revision but when I finally turned up to go anatomy, I found out all my friends were wagging to go Noggi :') It was so funny though, since when I turned up to prac, I realised joon was late and the teacher was asking if we knew he was coming. I told her that the last I heard from him was that he was going to eat frozen yoghurt. He came later and the teacher started demanding for some frozen yoghurt and he was so confused. 

Its okay, we went to eat food all together during our four hour break before anatomy the next day. Except... we ended up skipping because it started raining and the weather was so miserable and cold. We finished our last summative online quiz yesterday though, thanks to all my friends I ended up with full marks :') I should really study more.... I'm always asking them for help. Yeah and then I go to eat dinner out with richie & natalie today :P How very contradictory. I bought an egg separator so its more convenient when I make macarons. 
& I saw a backpack on sale for $20  :DDDDD 

Last of all, 
Happy 18th birthday again vic!!! :)

Hey guys! 
I'm so happy :) The salted caramel filling I made yesterday thickened up enough to be used for macarons. After leaving it in the fridge overnight, it turned into this:
It tastes so much like Werther's original lollies. I've been craving this flavour for ages haha, finally figured out how to make it. Anyway, since I had my filling, I decided to make more macarons today. I really need a proper piping bag though, my macarons don't turn out with nice shapes since I don't use a proper one. 
I think I figured out why my macaron shells were cracking so easily, probably because I wasn't piping them thick enough or because in my previous tries, the mixture wasn't mixed well enough. I'll probably go experiment more once the semester holidays start. One month of bludge, wooooo! 
I think they're a bit too sweet though ): Didn't add enough salt. Wish I could reduce the amount of sugar but then that'd probably make my macarons die or something. Made my brother eat some of the ugly ones haha, he said they tasted nice. Yay. Now... to make the aesthetically pleasing enough to sell ;). Jokes.

Hello guys! I was planning on doing some study during the day today but found it impossibly hard to crawl out of bed. When I finally did, I still ended up bludging the day away. This is so bad hahahaha. Anyway, I decided to try make salted caramel filling for the first time in my life..... It tastes good but I think it's a bit too runny for macaron purposes ): I'll have to see. My uni friends can be my poor guinea pigs. 
For dinner my family & I headed down to somewhere near sunnybank hills to eat at this Taiwanese restaurant called '楊媽媽' (Mother yang). 
Our family eats so much.... this wasn't even all of what we ordered. 
& my Taiwanese style  dumpling beef noodle soup. 
 The old people I call my parents.

Let me show you what my uni life is like......... 
Eating, eating and more eating!!! 
Oh and of course making fun of justin. I'm still enjoying my days without assignments. Met up with so many state high people today (some unintentionally) but so happy :) I went to find jen & somehow bumped into phuong and gracie!! My little seedy children. 

After Jen left phuong kept me company and then we went to find nat to eat dinner. On the way, we bumped into kaido as well so we dragged him along to dinner as well. 
Kaido was deciding on what to order and he so the Takoyaki and thought were were only three. There were five of them in the picture, he just couldn't count. How sad :P 
 Ya, this grandpa with bad eyesight eating takoyaki 
 I realised at about 6:30pm that I didn't have lunch either so I was insanely hungry..... which resulted in this: 
 I didn't end up finishing all the curry & rice :') But it was soooooo good. Considering the weather was so cold today. 

Of course, natalie & I then dragged kaido to karaoke whilst phuong went home :3 We were twenty minutes away from finishing karaoke when nat had to go home. Then I saw julie coming with a bunch of her friends and it was so awkward because they were like ;) why are you two alone. Sighs. Very awkward.  

Anyway, afterwards I found out my bus came 40 minutes later  - - but kaido decided to wait with me/walk around city until it came since if i took the other bus, I'd have to walk through what he called the 'seedy looking path'. Haha thanks kiddo. 

Well goodnight! I'm off to read my lovely books again!

 Red wine macarons, a bit uglier than usual ): 

Today I brought about 25 or so macarons to uni in order to bribe everyone to go to the anatomy lecture tonight instead of skipping :P I still ended up giving them away before the lecture started though. After sitting through four hours worth of lectures, Tam, Vic, Justin, Pk, Joon & I decided a little break was in order. First we accompanied Pk to go see the justice of peace so that she could get this form signed. It took her almost half an hour because the line was so long and so we started taking photos .....

Justin advertising my macarons. 
 Justin finally agreed to let me upload this photo (for the benefit of attracting you all to my macarons, of course you're welcome to take him too). Haha, it looks like he's enjoying the fragrance. Too bad the macarons turned out more ugly than usual. 
 There were paparazzi standing outside the entrance too and they kept swing the cameras at anyone walking by so we ended up facing the other way, staring awkwardly into the distance. 
 HAHAHA 
 I don't know why but I think this looks so cute :') My friends all think I'm a stalker because I like to take pictures of them as well as look at their facebook/instagram/blog. Just have my friends best interests at heart man. Geez. Hahaha okay, just slightly stalkerish. 
 Grill'd for lunch! Justin made me finish most of the chips :\ even though we were meant to be sharing.
 Sitting there like bogans whilst waiting for Joon to finish playing pool with his friends. 
 Awwwws cutie pie ;) She's single guys! 

We successfully dragged justin& joon to karaoke with us. Joon lied, he told me he was bad at karaoke and then goes and starts singing like some k-pop star. Sighs. We finally found someone who could actually sing Gangnam style properly though. 
 Justin was playing around with my camera and he got this hilarious picture of Pk.  
I must say, Pk& Tam really love dancing, it was so funny because Tam kind of got so excited she fell over on the ground at one stage. 
Tam was just a tad high  
Our last song was 'Call me maybe' and then justin started trying to give everyone his go card, telling us it was his number so I took it and hid it so he couldn't sneak home after karaoke HAHA. 

We finished at 6pm (our anatomy lecture starts usually at this time) and we dragged ourselves slowly to QUT and as soon as we got there, we started to feel like sFkipping. We were 1 minute away from our classroom when we all decided to turn back around and go back to city to eat dessert. Omg. LOL. It was also around this time I realised I left my box of macarons somewhere. So sad. 
 Victoria and Tam drinking their beloved coffees 
& eating honey bread

Afterwards I went and bought my brother sour worms on my way home since he texted me to tell me he was craving for them. I'm such a good sister ;) -ignores the fact that he's not supposed to be eating lollies cause he's sick-
