it's time to say goodbye



say gdbye to what?
the hols i say! :(

anyway the laundry issue is not really ever going to be resolved, because my friend is .. lazy to be proactive. so he got to wait for his turn. serve you right, aloha
poor chap.

ah! my daph twinnie made me happy by saying that she might visit adelaide next year!
how exciting. but that's like nearly 9 months down the track. i will have uni at that time but we shall see how it all goes yeah.

and my wisdom tooth decided to bother me now, after all these yrs of.. not bothering me
i got to extract it on friday the 13th! oct.
i forsee a week of eating through a straw.

and im the world's worst procrastinator.

solutions solutions

i think i am a HUGE medical drama addict.
house, grey's anatomy, you name it.

is this because i am learning med?

then why doesn't the 'real' thing fulfil me as much?

i get so distracted revising my work.
it's like you think you know it, but when it comes to crunch time, you actually don't.
i would love to be able to study on and on and on and be those sort of people who forget to eat or sleep because they were so busy stuffing their brains with crisp good ol' knowledge.
but i am more of the force myself to study and hope for the best type.

now i am just waiting for thurs to come.
den i can download the latest episode of grey's anatomy and allow it to fulfil my hunger for unrealistic and cheesy medical dramas.

btw, i made sticky date pudding yesterday.
i turned into santa claus and gave slices of pudding to my friends.
now there's only a bit left.
yeay for daphne. i hate to have alot of cake leftover and then i have to stuff my face with the same cake over and over again. it gets boring after the 2nd slice.
and then the cake wouldn't taste as good as before.

i am just rambling on and on.
someone PLEASE stop me.

btw, i have a friend who is in the following situation.
his housemate washes clothes in the washing machine like .. 3 times a week or something.
(don't question why he has so much dirty laundry)
thus, the drying rack on the balcony is always occupied by his clothes.
so this person now is pissed because there is never space on the drying rack for him to dry his clothes -> resulting in him being unable to do his laundry at the time he wants to do it.

solution:
a) negiotiate with housemate and designate days when each one of them can use washing machine
b) buy another drying rack so both housemates can dry clothes at the same time.

which makes more sense?

i am so random

saturdays

i have not written a 'proper' entry for a long while.
sorry for the lack of photos. been abit lazy to upload pictures and all.

guess my tutor was right. It's the mid-semester blues that everyone is facing. the lack of motivation to do your work zealously, the flattened affect you dispose onto others. and the yearn for the magical 2 week break to be here right away.

Lucky the adelaide city council got smart and now, we have weekend markets on rundle street on saturdays! it's not as big a scale as say, the salamanca market in tasmania or the paddy's market in sydney. but still, its a nice way to spend your saturday morning. munching on pinched bits of the sourdough loaf you just bought from the guy who proudly acclaims he was kneading this very loaf whilst you were still sound asleep. Taking in the breaths of sausages slowing browning on the barbeque grill, mixed with the mystical scents of indian spices oozing out from the tandoori chicken.. your senses come alive.

and the market is a great place to see how nice people can be. the lady whom i bought my cheesecake and polish crisp bread from gave me a free date cake! which she proudly claims its her best cake. and after vic and i fought over who gets the last bit of the date cake...yes her date cake is so yummilicious! it's a hybrid between a cake and a sticky date pudding. it was moist, sweet and had enough dates.

that's enough market adventures for this week.

maybe next week i will arm myself with a camera before i head for the market! haha
