work, study, and fat

juz got home from work at the cricket ground! I am so sick of chips and fish and meat pie even though I don’t even eat meat pie. brought home a ton of loot though, for my housemates. too bad sad case cj friend left already or u can join in the free meat pie feast. my wrist is very sore from scooping chips all night long, and my stomach is even more sore from nibbling on them all night long.

work was pretty fun anyway. really appreciate this job that sends me everywhere, I always get to meet new pple, see new places. the in-charge today was this young girl named deborah who’s 19 and studying at UTS and she talks alot. it makes working fun. and the cook guy actuallly works at matsuya!! ha ha! we almost went there last nite for dinner. so cool. if I had a choice, I’d choose to be a kitchen hand next time. I had a whale of a time making the food. and I will have a whale of a time making food forever and ever… I wanna work in a sushi restaurant or something. say, I should fulfill my dad’s dream for me to become a fugu chef. ha ha.

anyway, I am now $550 poorer. I sent wiggles to the workshop this morning to get his alternator fixed. well I’m just glad he’s alright now.. phew. but pumping money into the little thing I’m about to sell didn’t make me feel exactly elated. at least I can drive to church tomorrow with a peace of mind that wiggles isn’t going to die on the road.

this weeks gonna be a dreader. I know it’s gonna whizz by, and yet, it’s gonna be my longest week here by far. research project I haven’t started on, psych exam I haven’t studied for, Jap exam I wanna score HD for. I don’t know if I can handle it, or if I’ll even survive..

okay I’m gonna shower now and get the smell of chips and meat pie off me… then I’ll settle down, practise some Jap by writing in my JAP BLOG(!!) then take some notes for my research proj then study for psych.

hais!

feeling a tad depressed and in pain now. my ‘shopping therapy’ is on hold- and by shopping therapy I mean SUPERMARKET shopping becuase I hate all other shopping. these days if I’m in the mart I merely head in for bread and milk and walk straight out lest I end up seeing other stuff and buying them. I’m currently overstocked on food, seeing as to how I’ll be leaving oz in under 6 weeks. so that means I can’t afford to buy anymore food, thus leaving me void of my favourite hobby.

but alas, I shall drown my sorrows in studies, watch Japanese dramas over dinner, and pour out my soul writing in my Jap blog.

the intensity is heating up.

in school now! done for the day but because 1) my bag is REALLY heavy and 2) I’m too lazy to walk home I’m gonna sit here and do my work till the shuttle bus starts running.

afternoon Jap sem is sooooo good! only 8 people so it moves pretty quickly. I’m switching to this class from next week onwards.

the week’s almost over! I love how time is flying!! and I’m keeping up to task this time round too so all is good! I’m going home in 6 weeks’ time and will be flying the 777-300ER yeahoo! :D a little tired of the A380 already. even my dad called it the plane that “herds cattle” ha ha! so I’m really excited abt the 773ER! don’t think I’ve flown it before…

tomorrow’s my favourite day- friday!

HOME SWEET HOME!!! the thought of going home with a peace of heart for my exam results is my motivation to gambarimasu and study harder!!

AHHH

3 big assignments in! a couple more to go! then I can get proper sleep!

7 hrs in 3 days! public holiday tmr! I can sleep tonite!

fat day today! 2 krispy kreme donuts (I MISS MISTER DONUT!), LARGE maccas value meal, LARGE sundae, apple pie, crumpets, 1 healthy banana. I’m fat!

Japanese interaction test! FAIL (or I’m sure I did)! sensei (In Jap) “what kind of souvenir from Singapore should I buy for my parents?” me: “eto… … … (20 seconds) … … soft toy…?”

OMG. Japanese incoherence.

English incoherence now too!

goodnite!

falling sick :(

I can feel the imminent onset of a FEVER!! okay, I could. but now I feel much better after taking a nap, eating porridge + vegetables + chickpeas, an orange (tons of vitamin C!), and strepsils kindly provided by my housemate :) I hope my head doesn’t fire up again because the weekend is coming and I would like to be well enough to finish up all my assignments which are due next week! x.X

Jap class today was super fun! we had Japanese visitors come so we could interact with them. well, the girl I met is studying hairdressing in TAFE right now, she’s pretty funky! I made sure I grabbed her before others did.. hehe. I also learnt alot of new words and expressions, and realised I actually knew enough Japanese to be able to sustain a decent conversation in Jap ^-^ ですから、とてもうれしかった！(so I’m really happy)

and many thanks to niza whom I ‘met’ at choon’s gossip blog! :D I enjoyed the first episode of One Pound Gospel very much! but for now, I shall have to leave it at that since I have alot of work to finish up first. yesterday I allowed myself to watch it on the pretext that I was ‘preparing’ for today’s Japanese visitor session ;) I didn’t actually know that it was a drama series. I thought it was a movie! now… what have I gotten myself into?? :S
