    Ch 91: Shopping list

    Special Announcement:

    Are there anything that you girls wish to get from Adelaide? Please send your shopping list to my yahoo email account (jolene070784).

    I still don't know where I should bring my mummy to. I thought of Queensland. But it is too big. With the limited time we have, I doubt we will have a nice time. I hate planning trips. Right now, I prefer tours. At least, it will save my time in doing research.

    These days, Uncle Richard had been feeding me with food. I guess he is afraid that I will be missing the food over there. Hence, as long as I mentioned that I have any craving for anything, he would go and buy it for me. Argh... He is making me feeling bad. This departure is harder than the one I had 2.5 years ago. I remembered that when Yuya is leaving, he gave me a card with all his contacts and some photos of his journey in Australia. I like the way he phrase it," I shall see all of you again in Australia, in Japan or in Heaven."

    Regards

    Ch 90: Steamboat


    Last Sunday, all my working pals had a steamboat session at Uncle Richard's place. It was great fun. We had alot of different kinds of "balls" and mushroom.

    Soup Base: Tom Yam and Chicken soup

    Let's have a look at menu of the day



    1. Fishballs


    2. Pork balls


    3. cuttlefish balls


    4. Mushroom balls


    5. salmon fish


    6. chicken


    7. fried beancurd


    8. Tofu


    9. Beancurd


    10. Golden mushroom


    11. Oyster mushroom


    12. Kuay teow


    13. chiom Sum


    14. Sliced Beef

    The drinks were proudly sponsored by Uncle Richard! Drink list? Apple Juice, Orange Juice, Hardys Chardonnay, Banrock Station White Shiraz and Hardys Oomoo Shiraz. Being the worst drinker, Uncle Richard Keep feeding me with Apple and Orange Juice after my 1st glass of chardonnay. I bet I will be missing the gang. Right now, I am planning my mom's trip to here. My Graduation will be held on 17th Aug 2007, at Adelaide Festival Theatre, 3pm. My 1st taste of the square hat! At last, I had completed my mission to Australia.

    I watched Harry potter the movie with Krystal last Tuesday. It was a little disappointing since they are missing out alot of details. However, I felt that it is better than the last one. This movie highlighted more on the friendship that Harry had. Luckily, I was not paying the full price for the ticket, 8.50 Aus dollars. By the way, a movie ticket on normal days will cost 12.50 Aus dollars.

    Leaving is never easy. But it is easier compared to that time when I was coming here. Like what I told Uncle Richard, what I had left was all the memories. I will also packed along with my luggage-- the wisdom that I had learned, all the experiences I had encountered, all the memories I had stored in my brain and all the friends that made my journey possible.

    Ch 89: My Birthday

    Happy Birthday to me! (a belated 1?)

    Hey folks, How's life in Sunny island? I had a great time (well.. a remarkable night) on my birthday (dated 7th July 2007). As usual, I didnt want a big celebration for my birthday because of the hassle of making arrangements with all the friends, thinking of where to have dinner and what to do. I just meet up with my friends from my workplace. I guess it is a really tough decision to make on where to have dinner. Hong and Tay suggested a pizza dinner since Aussies had the tradition of doing so. Well.. Since I dont have any cravings for that moment, I agreed to that. However, when Michelle came over, she was like "Why have such normal food for a birthday?" After much arguements, Tay suggested to have dinner at a Korean Restuarant. SO we drove to Goodwood road. Upon reaching the place, the menu didnt look interesting to anyone. Then I can sense much unhappiness from hong and tay. Then Michelle just decided to drive us to King William Road to see if anything suit us. Finally we decided on a cafe Patrizo. The food was petty good. It is my blessings that they allow us to have dinner. The place was fully booked for the night. All the customers were very well dressed (except for us).

    After that, we went back to Hong and Tay's place for some card games and drink sessions. The whole night was petty intense. Words just cant describe the night. Just imagine we looked for a place to eat from 5 pm to 7pm. I almost had my throat in my stomach. Why do most of my friends dont get along well? At last, everything was great in the end. I just hope that Michelle will have less firey temper next time.

    This year I do have quite a few birthday wishes. The one that I really hoped for was from my Lulu... Finally she admited that there's 7th July this year! Presents? I only recieved from ty. But wishes are good enough. Birthday is always the day to mark how many friends remember you. So? I am blessed.

    Now I am busy trying to arrange my stuffs to go back to Sunny Island. I think I have at least 15kg worth of books and notes to carry back. I dont think I will hav space in my luggage to bring any presents. I feel deeply sorry. My indecisive parents are still thinking if they will be coming over for my graduation. Well.. I certainly do not jhope that my family will announce bankrupcy because of my graduation. However, can they just let me go back since they didnt want to come? At least I can start my job hunt instead of wasting my time here. I want to go back!

    Regards
    Jolene
