Australia Panic

Tuesday morning update

While everyone is still asleep by now, i just wake up and feel the urge to blog. DST had finally ended and perth started to embrace Autumn again. This may be my last autumn here and i just realise how comfortable the temperature is. During the day, the temperaure stayed around from 20 to 27 degrees. And at night, it falls back to the 15 but it is ok because C house had extreme temperature like 5 degrees hotter at night and 5 degrees colder durin the day. Is only morning that you feel abit cold because the sun is yet to be out.

It is now the Easter break and how fun it is. Beginning of the week, YH, the devil, brought my favourite game from Wilson's place. And by now, i had completed the GDI campaign with hard mode and currently at Act IV(4/5) of the hard Nod's campaign. I can say the graphics of the game is damn nice but i realise my computer had difficulty to run the game even at medium settings. My lappy will even lag when there is too much troops on the map on low settings. I am actually amazed how good the graphics is when playing at medium settings, i wonder how good it will look like at max. But the game will not last long for me because i just complete the GDI campaign in 2 days. Or maybe i am just too good to be a commander.

To be honest, i rather hope that i can venture out and do some outdoor activities. Don't think i actually played for long. Most of the time, i spend more time on hittin the books. Is only when things get too dry and tats when C&C3 came in. Well, is rather to motivate myself to study and keep reminded that the exams is just right after the break. Monday was hardcore for me, i woke up around 10pm on sunday, mug till 3am, and continue again in the library at 11am till 4pm. Finished 2 chapters of IA. And completeing 1 Act of the Nod's campaign. And thus, my bio clock finally revert back after 3 weeks.

Finally a saturday not at tea cafe. We went to a korean BBQ shop at northbridge for dinner instead. And how surprised it turn out to be. The food is so damn nice and authentic that i felt i am in korea for tat night. We never eat bbq, but rather a mini steamboat. Is some beef soup with noodles and mushrooms. Each of us also order a side dish to complement with the main course. I order a spicy kimchi soup with pork and it was super shiok. Even YH's sizziling hot plate chicken dosen't taste like those you have in SG. Been some time since i really eat something new that taste really nice. It is sad that we only discover this place in 3rd year. There is still very nice food in perth afterall.

Anyway, i really don't wish to whine in my blog, but other than this place, I don't have any place to tell anyone liao. I don't really msn now, this is the only place i can whine. I just failed my driving test (laugh all you want). There was also something that happened last week that i really am sad about. I am really useless, compared to those who are handicapped, i have a pair of hands and legs yet i can't achieve what i want. Life is really funny, and i have to admit it, you have to be do evil things to achieve happiness. What selflessness, and what kind of kindness, that only happened in fairytale and what a joke it is.


陈慧琳 - 前所未见


推开一万扇窗到这里才遇上
毕生想找那片梦中出现过海洋
约错的会太多你最尾才亮相
唯有你的家里那风景最堪欣赏

谁的手谁的肩回家一样温暖
能一扑进就不想再逛大世界花园
碧海蓝的天传说里的伊甸
地球寸寸都走遍为何也看不见
然而在你这里遇见

彷佛寝在你肩才能沉沉睡去
几多星的旅店亦不可让我安眠
见惯公路两边四季那时令转
来到这温室里至找到我的春天

谁的手谁的肩回家一样温暖
能一扑进就不想再逛大世界花园
碧海蓝的天传说里的伊甸
地球寸寸都走遍为何也看不见
然而在你这里遇见

谁的手谁的肩回家一样温暖
能一扑进就不想再逛大世界花园
碧海蓝的天传说里的伊甸
地球寸寸都走遍为何也看不见
然而在你眼里望见

Easter break gives me some time to search through my library to see what songs i have. This song is from Ester when i took her whole library 2 years ago. Didn't really have time to look all her few hundred cantonese songs but the above is one that i like very much. And to my amazement, i start to listen to classical music now thanks to Nodame Cantabile. That includes Rachmaninoff Piano concerto no. 2 and Beethoven Symphony No. 7. I also crave for songs from female singers like sammie cheng and joey yeung.

And now, time to stop whinning, i will do what i can do now, with my pair of hands, STDUY!
