Yup! I went camping with Jian in New South Wales last weekend! We were both invited by Jess and Kyla. Its seriously an eye-opener as its not your ordinary farm-stay whereby there were animals and such. Its a real farm! Jess and Kyla's dad were sugar-cane farmers and own huge plots of land. So with huge land comes huge machines...
Big machine I tell you...
Yea. Big machine in a BIG shed. Not only that, we had too much to drink. Jian calculated that we had an average of 15 bottles of beer each and to add on, 4 equivalent of strong Bundy-coke. We were all high and tipsy at the very least! It was a beautiful night with all stars and the Morrin family were definitely wonderful hosts! We had barbie for dinner and as it was really cold at night, we had a huge bon-fire going. Both Jian and I slept in the tents outside the house to get the real feeling of 'camping' and it was really an experience! Something I would really love to try again some time soon!
One of the many shots taken...
After the night of heavy drinking, we had a tour around Neville's farm and even visited his boat in the morning! The farm is definitely a good place to unwind and relax. Its really something you will never expect. Waking up to the chirping of birds and all that...
The farm..
Riding on the back of the truck... touring the farm.. lol..
Now with all fun seems to be ending one way or another, there's Michelle's birthday cum Halloween party tomorrow, followed by the SSA End of Sem dinner on Sat. Haha. Its about time we hand over to the new committee! Hehehe. Looking forward to dressing up for the Halloween party as my costume is abit... unorthodox! Haha..

Present!!
I bought this online...
Made the purchase a couple days ago and its now on its way to my home. That little girl's feet get cold during winter and so I had decided to buy this to keep her warm in Canada. Might be expensive, a whopping AUD$186 but I think its all worth it as long as she likes it.
On the other hand, she had decided to get me American Eagle apparels. Hehehe.
While I try to study for my finals, I have to give myself some time to go shopping for souvenirs. As usual, I always get gifts for my parents and loved ones. This time, I have a rough idea of what to get and so it shouldn't be that tough. Hehe.
Mel, i am really looking forward to coming back for those supper!! haha. Can't wait!! We got so much to catch up on!!

End of Mid-terms!
Holidays came and left. 2 exams on the first week of Uni and mid terms are finally over. Time for a short breather and then start studying for end of sems. At least now we all know a possible aim for grades for end of semester exams.
Well, I just received another card from the same friend! I guess she must have read my post and therefore sent a card with a few simple words but used highlighters instead. I was wondering who it might send it as it wasn't signed off. However, the hand writing and greetings totally gave it away! Hehehe. Thank you so much! I miss you too!
Last Thurs we went up to Bernie's place for dinner. He cooked a big feast we sure had a good time with all the food. It was a 10 course dinner and a selection of 2 desserts. All very good food and cost only $2o!! It was a very good dinner with lots of leftover which we brought back as he couldn't finish everything himself.
Just last week I cooked at Michelle's as well. I had a craving for Singapore curry and so decided to make a pot of curry chicken for everyone. Jian commented that the veggies is alot similar to the one served with chicken rice back in Singapore. Haha. I think what was lacking is only the rice itself. I could had made chicken rice but did not managed to get the proper ingredients and so had to go with white rice instead. It was a good dinner for 6.
Curry chicken with the bai cai with home-made spring-onions..
We celebrated Kyla's birthday at Valentinos and that girl had a blast. It was followed by drinks at Howl at the Moon and boy, the ladies sure had a good time dancing away.
The birthday girl.. ain't she lovely?
A party together at last~!
It was definitely an enjoyable night as we finally managed to go out and drink as a group. Nobody drive that day and we all share cab to get home after. I spent the night at their place again as I had one drink too many~! Haha.
Jemz, am definitely looking forward to coming back to drink with you to our hearts content~! Haha. Then we can go Union and dance silly there after as mentioned by you! We were supposed to do it last year but you were too busy mate!~ No more excuses this time~!
