.Anzac Day.

Caught this movie today..it's a 'feel-good' show..with the right casts and happy ending type of show..worth the A$8.50, i guess..and Clara lin! we are going to go ahead with Opearation Piggy-bank on the 15th! i am saving that money whether or not it'll kill me..haha..

Funnily the first picture that popped up on my search was this one..didn't know they actually make different versions of movie poster..=/

.Term 2, day 1.

..this phrase is running through my head for some reason..the sweetest girl sent it to me and then it went to hide away at some corner in my (small) brain till now..

"Go and do what you have to do..

conquer the world if that's what you want..

and when your done,

I'll be right here.

Waiting for you,

I promise. "

you are the way, the truth and the light..we live by faith and not by sight for you..

well its less than 2 hrs before i leave perth and go back to my 2nd home..BITTER-sweet. I'm gna miss the doing-nothings and waking up whenever i want to and have my mom wash the plates and buy things for me..oh well, guess i'll see the family again in 10 weeks time. Kinda weird though..didn't figure i'd feel sad about going back to melb but somehow family time just is THAT special..especially since the family can be between 2 to 4 different places at one time nowadays..

school starts tomorrow..and i'm gna have to rush from the plane to home and bathe + change before rushing to school..nvm at least i've got clara lin to start my day (although technically my day started already and wun end till tmrw evening coz i wun get much sleep..) gosh..

oh well, i'm going to run..wanna spend some time with my sistah..see y'all!

p.s. - marc + pam..wah couple attack, eh? wait till u see my berkies! their nicer than urs! coz their not the ah pek type..bahah..anyway marc, havent spoken to u in awhile..hope everything's good..gimme a msg or sth when ur free..if not, good luck for s'pore open! i'm EXPECTING my record to fall!..and map..

..my package!! haha..

.Just a response.

..so e trip to perth included a dinner with bern's friends, i found out..kinda weird going out with 8 other complete strangers..and also found out that one of them (at least!) reads my blog too..identify yourself! tag my board and if your pretty, leave a contact!

and yes people, i get the hint..dark hair looks nicer..fine..not that i've much choice now anyway..went back to the hairdresser to touch up and she was so nice about it..then went to wax my eyebrows (yes! wax my brows! gawsh i'm must be turning gay..) didn't want to buy anything coz my bag is filled to the brim and more..tomorrow i'm going to PACK. But not before i lay my hands on those leather boots from Harbourtown..

speaking of which, it's Sunday tomorrow and the words on Laura's (yes LAURA u better reply me as soon as u see this!) blog keeps playing in my head..so i shall leave you all with it and sign off..

"..Better a day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere.."

.Perth Day 1.

..so the day started abruptly at 8.30am (yes abruptly..not approximately) with my mom knocking on the door and waking me up (gawsh for a moment i missed waking up to nothing back in Melbourne..)..went to the kitchen and made pancakes for the family but my mom and dad took over so botha us plonked ourselves onto the seats and waited..then it was off to buy bern a car..yes, a bloody car!! so irritating..she's only got her license for 2 months and she's already getting a car (the seats are quite nice too leh..feels like suede..

** helllllooooooooooooooooooo :D my brother is an alien :D **

...interruption from my dysfunctional sister there..(thus making lu : boy, interrupted..bahahaha) anyway, bern's got a lovely car..Toyota something..but i like it and she likes it and my parents like it so i guess it's hers for now..anyway, we were happily looking at cars and more cars when i remembered that i forgot to take picture of an accident earlier..so in the midst of photo-whoring in the Toyota and Mitsubishi showrooms, i switched to the road opposite and snapped a few..

..ok the picture doesn't really show much of the accident..but yea, this trailer hit another vehicle infront earlier in the morning and it was carrying sum heavy-looking metal stuff and they kinda "spilled" over 3 of the 4 lanes on the road..reducing traffic to a 1-laner..and the cool thing was that the last lane was kinda 3/4 of a lane coz one of the metal pieces was hanging over the edge of the trailerand sticking out so cars had to drive around it..crazy australian drivers..anyway, after the whole car purchasing episode (which took about 4 hours) we went to Sunday's for lunch..mmmm..jap. curry and sushi..a tiny piece of heaven..

..then we dropped bern off at home to study before we left for Garden City to shop..kinda disappointing though..only bot a shirt and a jacket from Roger David..nvm tomorrow will be a better day (hopefully)..

my brother is an aliennnnnn lalalalalalalalala.

Boy, interrupted 2..haha..anyway, before i go, better put up pictures of 4 of us yesterday when Pohie and Ji Zhen came over..if not tt girl's gonna complain..so here goes..and toodles, people!

QF 775

..so devina and clara both woke me up at 4am and 4.30am just to make sure i make it to the airport and catch the 6.10am flight..gosh, now i know why i hated the early training sessions back in s'pore..and to actually wake up at that God-forskaen time, bathe, change and book a cab with an equally groggy operator (yes devi, my skybus plan got shelved coz its was too cold and too far..) is no mean feat..but somehow i made it there and checked myself in on time.

..the flight was really empty for some reason..and equally surprising was the fact tt the flight crew were actually cheerful..(qantas MUST be paying them helluva lotta OT pay..) anyway i got a whole row to myself..so plonked my butt on a window seat and stretched out..halfway through the flight i got woken up (politely, of course) by powdered scrambled eggs and mushy tomatoes..(well, it was either that or "Just Right!" cereal). Well i popped open the window cover (or whatever its called) and saw this..

well, the view was much nicer than THAT..i tot the airplane engine was kinda superfluous..so i took another picture (mind u this is with my hp and i had to duck the stewardess whenever they walked past)..

..lovely, isn't it? ok, fine..maybe not lovely..but its nice..and it kinda reminded me of what Tom Hanks said in Forrest Gump when he was running..something like "..i couldn't tell where Earth ended and Heaven began.." sometimes its words like that that make u sit back and go "wow..i never thought about it THAT way.."

ok going to run off to buy dinner..pohie is coming over tonight so gotta prepare for the queen..later!

.Perth-bound.

..well here's an overdued update with what's-happening in Lu's life over the past few months that he couldn't even blog and had to picture- or song-blog all the *&^%$#@!! time..heh..i've been getting too many complains from people who says i'm not actually blogging and blah blah so FINE! here's my hand-typed post, happy? But first, lemme do a ulynn-style opening..

"..that's (picture-blogging) like a girl.." - U-lynn

Okay so anyway here goes..i'm leaving for Perth like tmrw early early in the morning (flight's at freaking 6.10am!! Which grumpy Aussie pilot did they have to over-pay to sleep early from Easter celebrations just so he can be there to fly that plane?) so tonight after dinner with devina i'm gna drag her to southern cross to buy skybus ticket with me..and it's not going to be easy, people..dragging a 1.5m grumbling indon is one of the worst things tt can happen to a guy (oh man i hope she doesn't read this.).

So i was walking back from lunch with the three girls (shan, u-lynn and sheena) and just as i reached my block, this was what greeted me...

..ok fine so i can't resist putting up ONE picture on my post so sue me...but there was like glass shattered all over the intersection, and the smell of petrol lingered in the air, and there was this couple sitting at the side and the lady was crying for some reason..(the picture doesn't do the actual accident much justice there are like bits and pieces of the front lamp smashed on the road and sidewalk..) thank goodness for 2 megapixel handphone cameras..

well then back to the topic..this week we went to Ballarat..my first long-driving experience..(well not exactly long, but long enough to enjoy..) i really tink i must buy a car or something..it was just fun! heh..and with 4 other hyperactive-corny-and-lame-and-funny people in the car, what more could a guy ask for? Sovereign Hills was fun too lah, anyway..like it was worth the ride, the car rental, the rushing around, the tickets and the horse poo smell in the air..=)

oh, and i think i truly am becoming a himbo..Will&Grace + not studying for the past week is working its effect on me..and that's not good at all. =( coz i was wondering why in the world nobody is tagging my board..and then shann enlightened me today - the typing area is gone! wow..suddenly it was all so clearrr...

..miss aimee sin dedicated her latest post to me..i highly recommend a read or two..although she's sore at me because i sed the 2nd picture was horrible (it is!)..but anyhow, go read it..i like it. thank you, girl! deeply appreciated..=)

..over the past week i have watched -

1. Fantastic 4
2. Police Story
3. Assault on Precinct 13
4. Will & Grace Marathon (duh)
5. Four Brothers
6. Cat in The Hat (totally worth it)
7. Stealth
8. Forces Of Nature
9. The Anchorman

..wow..thanks to everyone who came over to watch it and thanks to Arena who aired W&G marathon..i must must mention that my quest to convert as many people as i can to W&G addicts is slowly working its way into some people..so hopefully more and more will join me! And geri, of course..she's e one who got me started with all these..=P

anyway, dinner beckons..gossip session!! haha..then its time to get back and do a rushed packing, hopefully..ciao people!

.Afternoon Delight.

The Starland Vocal Band

Gonna find my baby,
gonna hold her tight
gonna grab some afternoon delight.

My motto's always been;
when it's right, it's right.
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night.
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day.
And you know the night is always gonna be there any way.

Sky rockets in flight.
Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
looking forward to a little afternoon delight.

Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
and the thought of rubbin' you is getting so exciting.

Sky rockets in flight.
Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.
Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always thought a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
a little afternoon delight.

Sky rockets in flight.
Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.
Please be waiting for me baby when I come around.
We could make a lot of lovin' 'for the sun goes down.

Sky rockets in flight.
Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.

.4-course dinner + Breakfast.

..so our rooftop dinner was bugged because the winds were too windy and the time was too late..bollocks! grabbed all the plates and food, glad-wrapped them and lugged them to my place and sat on the carpet on my famous-white Ikea TV table and had our very own 4-course oriental home-cooked dinner. Kudos to miss yeo for her lovely culinary creations. And then breakfast was done by yours truly..just add beehoon to the soup served from dinner while you enjoy ur own passion-fruit tart..mmmmmmm.

..Time for a long-awaited drive out to Ballarat with the guys tomorrow..hopefully all 7 of us..=) cramped in a tarrago..here we gooooooooo..

Artist: The Penfifteen Club Lyrics
Song: Hey, Ms. Hilton

Oh my, looky there
Stone-cold foxy,
platinum hair
Short skirt, barely there
Make a chick wanna hate,
make a boy wanna stare

Well,
Ms. Hilton you must be worth a trillion bucks
Get the feelin' that you don’t really give a f**k
Ms. Hilton I like the way you push and glide
Rollerskates on a social butterfly, whoo!

Breeze by, velvet ropes
Ski this town like a bunny slope
Oh my, there she goes
A Long money girl in her short money clothes

Well,
Ms. Hilton you must be worth a trillion bucks
Was it you with your bunny all up in the club?
Ms. Hilton I like the way you push and glide
Rollerskates on a social butterfly

Ms. Hilton you must be worth a trillion bucks
Get the feelin that you don’t really give a f**k
Ms Hilton I like the way you push and glide
Rollerskates on a social butterfly

Ms. Hilton you must be worth a trillion bucks
Was it you with your bunny all up in the club?
Ms. Hilton I like the way you push and glide
Rollerskates on a social butterfly

Ms. Hilton
Ms. Hilton
Ms. Hilton
