In the mix - MY TOP PICKS:

26 December 2006

First and foremost, Merry Christmas everyone! I do hope everyone has been celebrating well and having a good time with friends and family on this special occasion. Christmas has always been one of my favourite times of the year. No, not because of the presents, but its the time for celebration and joy with the ones you love. For me, its the time of year for reflection on my life and how lucky I am to have come this far in life. God has blessed my family and I and for that I am truly grateful.

Been pretty hectic the past couple of weeks trying to get Paragon Mag stuff done. It definintely ain't easy, but it sure is worth it. The weather has been crazy but managed to still enjoy it. Here's a quick photo update of what I've been up to. I love taking photos, simply wish I had the time to edit.














We went to King's Park to chill and be nerds. We were all reading a book and enjoying the breeze. Unfortunately the ducks wouldn't stop disturbing us cuz we decided to feed ONE some chips. In the end, about 7 of them surrounded us and I was paranoid one was gonna peck at my leg.

We had a visitor from Norway so we decided to bring her to Rotto (Rottnest Island) considering none of us had ever been there. The day started out soooo shitty with the greyest of clouds, but turned out to be miraculously beautiful. God heard my prayers.


































And on the eve of Christmas Eve, Monica and I decided to make a Gingerbread house. The first ever Gingerbread house for me! I was so excited I tell you. Ikea is the best, provide you with funny foreign things. Ok la, I know it looks easy to make, but i tell you, the sugar takes like FOREVER to melt.















The process of making it...is hilarious. Cuz the sugar hardens the moment u stretch it with the spoon. But oh-so-yummy!















And....*drumroll* the Final (sorta) Product!





























Okay so my font isn't exactly attractive or Chrismassy, but hey I tried. Bought frosting instead of icing...so yeah. Poo. Still, looks like snow?!?! Hahahaha...okay la. I'm proud of my Gingerbread house so don't say anything mean. That's all for now. Chrissy photos another time. Now........SLEEP!!!!


10 December 2006

One by one, they've all gone home. Once there was 8, now there's only 3. Soon only one will be left. Poor Jan, all alone during the scorching hot days of summer. Speaking of which, I'm gonna try heading to the beach as much as possible before heading back home to the humidity which will eventually kill me. I miss my friends.....

Been enjoying the Uni brea so far. Turns out I only have one year left instead of the one and a half I thought I still had to complete. AND, only 3 units per semester for that year. Quite exciting. Although I'm not quite sure I'm ready to graduate as yet. Who knows, maybe I'll take up another degree and learn more, or do masters in Film and Television. Exciting Stuff.

On other news, went to watch G3 on Friday night and it was awe-fucking-some! For those of you who don't know who G3 consists of, there's Steve Vai, John Petrucci and Joe Satriani, the greatest guitar legends there ever is! If you ever, EVER get the chance, pay the money to watch them Live. Its worth every single penny. Work your ass off if you have to. We paid $110 for four hours of solid guitar playing and god damn was it worth it. I've got videos if anyone's interested.

Fucking blogspot won't let me upload photos. UGH!
