Happy 19th birthday to Victoria !!

Yesterday all of us turned up together at our friday uni lecture for the first time - and that was to reduce the guilt of coming out just to 'party', which was pretty much what we were doing. After the lecture we all went to the city to celebrate victoria's birthday. All of us were sneaky and managed to carry out a surprise for the unknowing birthday girl.

We kind of dragged her to the intersection on queen street and blindfolded her. Then we proceeded to walk her down and then lied to her that we were taking her to showgirls. To our amusement she actually believed us. HAHAHA.

Don't worry guys, we actually just took her to get her ears pierced :3 and then we gave her another present. Too bad tam couldn't go up and watch victoria getting her ears pierced - she was looking forward to watching her scream. Yes, our tam likes to watch pain.

Well, I tried to take a photo of the earring, kind of failed woops. Afterwards we went to eat lunch at new shanghai.

The beef kind of tasted a bit funny and later on at night I started getting bumps on my back :| i suspect I may have had some kind of mild allergic reaction/ food poisoning. It might've been because of this, or perhaps I was allergic to some ingredient in the Paella which I shared with my friends later on for dinner at Nandos.

Whilst waiting for a few other people, we just sat near the cinemas. Tam brought her polaroid and got us to take photos so we could write messages for victoria's 'card'. Well more like birthday polaroid.

It was so funny though, Pk was posing seductively for the photo and I was commenting on it and then suddenly joon is like: its like lateral hip shoot through. We died laughing, sorry you guys won't get it but as students of radiography well…. it was damn hilarious. Gotta love x-ray jokes.

Had a karaoke session when everyone arrived. Justin ordered 'Love the way you lie' three times just to force me to embarrass myself 'rapping'. As you would all guess, it wasn't really rapping since I can't do that very well.

Being the fat kids we are, we went to have dessert AGAIN, at san churros. We literally eat dessert after every meal. Hanging with my uni friends will be the start to an obese life.

It was a good night :3 Hehe lucky we had a 'celebration' prior to swotvac. Starting now, it will be time to start studying. I should get onto it. Anyway, Happy birthday again vic :3

Hello guys! Lately I've pretty much been doing nothing but avoid study. Honestly, I'm probably the biggest procrastinator there is. Anyway, recently I've discovered that I'm starting to focus so much of my priorities on superficial things like looks. I wonder when I became like this, starting to actually do skin care, starting to want to make my hair nicer, starting wanting to have a better body. Well obviously a little care towards your appearance is good, but I feel as though I'm letting these things determine my worth. It's sad but thinking about it, the way people treat you and how much popularity you have is often determined by such a shallow thing - beauty.

For now, I'll just take it that I'm trying to improve myself overall I suppose. I even made a study/ exercise schedule. I've KIND OF been sticking to it…. well about 60% hahahaha. Pretty good for me. I started watching Daiso Hauls on youtube the other day because I didn't want to study and I found people raving about this charcoal face mask.

You spread it on, leave it to dry and then peel it off - it takes the white heads & blackheads along with any other dead skin off. I am duly fascinated.

I also went to Jennifer's house last wednesday, I was supposed to be doing my assignment but well…. I can never resist seeing my friends, as lame as that sounds. Me and vincent spent the majority of the night rolling on the ground, saying how screwed we are.

Can I just say that jen's cat its literally the cutest thing on earth? I really want to kidnap it and bring it home. I am such a sucker for fluffy things. Ugh, when I become a cat lady, I will own a cat just like it :3

I was able to coax twinkle out of the shadows and gain its trust enough to take a selfie muahaha. Look at that cute ball of fluff! Thanks jen for all the yummy food! Went to her house, planning to go home early at 9pm, ended up staying till 11:30pm cause we were having so much fun karaoking using her machine. Lucky alan has his P's and was able to drive me home.

Other than that, well, my uni life consists 80% of eating out with my friends and the other 20% attending practicals and doing my weekly quizzes.

Our group was discussing how in winter our lips get dry and the benefits of lip balm, if it actually works. Then yoonie being the cute thing she was went and ordered burt's bees lipbalm online for everyone.

Awwwwww.

Us with our 'friendship-balms' HAHAHA.

We ordered $90 worth of food for lunch..

I've been eating so much junk lately, like I literally at a bag of cheese popcorn at midnight the other day. I binge on junkfood, only to make it up in the extreme the next day.

My parents finally came back from america, my mum bought herself a fossil bag. I've never been a branded goods kind of person but lately - well as I said, I'm becoming interested in superficial things. Not saying that buying handbags is bad or anything, just that its never been a thing I've been interested in before. Starting to eye some nice bags though… but don't think I'll ever convince myself to spend that much, my wallet would cry.

My mum asked me what colour bikini I would like and I said anything BUT PINK. She then proceeded to buy a hot pink bikini. Sighs.

I went and bought some diamond simulant sterling earrings. I'm hoping that the fact it is made out of silver will stop me from having an allergic reaction.

Got this phone case / coin pouch. I feel so bad, I bought these two things on the same day.

Anyway, I should probably head off. Catch up on some sleep / study/ reading. Still, times during the day when I kind of start daydreaming, there are fleeting moments in which I start to brainstorm things I could right in a short story. It would be great if I could remember my ideas.

Ok, I'll stop rambling!! Sorry about the jumbled content. Goodnight!!

Sometimes, I wish I could be somebody's number one too; their ideal and first choice.

Hello guys! It's getting quite chilly here in Brisbane - no doubt you've all noticed, so I've been spending the past couple of days looking like a fluffy sheep with my thick socks, long PJ's and fluffy white rabbit jumper. I look ridiculous, but for the first time, I'm actually fully warm during 'winter' (cough, autumn).

To prevent myself from being drawn into the monotony of uni life, I've tried hanging out with as many people as I can. Kind of. The other day, I held a BBQ at my house with my uni friends and some of Jen's friends too.

My parents are out of the country at the moment so this time I prepared the things without their help. Thank goodness I had tam and stuff to help my carry groceries/ wash the vegetables. Now thinking back - I didn't really do all that much. HAHA. Free food from me, free labour from them. Tam decided to try 'hide' some easter eggs so we could celebrate a late easter but kwok ended up finding them all before the game even started and hid it in his bag.

I tried doing some study the next day for one of my weekly practical quizzes coming up for uni. Can I just say, I seem to be getting extremely slack with lecture attendance (and catching up on them too). I literally know nothing, this is slightly worrying. Anyway, Jen called me up for a spontaneous dinner at Miels. Yum!

The restaurant is actually a shipping container, can you believe it? We were being fattys and bought a meal along with a 'side platter' to share.

Whilst out, we also bumped into Kwok and Jackie. They ended up eating dessert with us at San Churros. I finally found a drink I actually find nice (usually, I kind of tolerate it but don't enjoy it all that much). Its called the Dulche de leche which is essentially a caramel drink.

We kind of all just ended up getting hot drinks since it was so cold outside.

Kwok's caramel couverture, Jen's dark chocolate couverture, Jackie's milk chocolate couvature & my dulche de leche drink.

Yeah, I've been living the fat life whilst my parents are gone. Usually I tend to lose weight but with my brother here, i feel obligated to cook semi decent meals for us soooooooo…….

But I have been eating out for lunch though, usually after uni when everybody craves hot food.

I ordered high waisted white scallop shorts from Asos the other day, it was my first time buying clothes online and to be honest, I was a little disappointed. Maybe it was my fault because I didn't notice the fact that the description said it was made of linen but yeah…. the material was not really good and was kind of transparent.

Oh, it was also too big around the waist. Damn my weird body proportions, I'm contemplating whether or not to go to the effort to return it and buy another pair of shorts. Or…. maybe I'll ask my mum if she can take the waist in for me/ add a extra piece of cloth for security.

I ate a whole block of camembert cheese today, then proceeded to go eat at Gelatissimo with cindy since I had some discount vouchers.

Haven't caught up with her in ages!! Makes me kind of miss our high school days, along with Dr. Badran (who is still, in my opinion the best chemistry teacher ever).

I am trying to make myself feel better by downloading all the lectures I've missed….I need to get a move on. If only I were a studious graceful person with poise and class. Oh well. Good night to you all! Off to get some literature therapy, (yes I made that word up) - namely reading.
