You Only Stand To Break My Heart

A lot of stuff has been going on, guys. And I know I missed my once-a-month post in April, which I have to admit is pretty pathetic that I can't even do a post a month anymore. But i come bearing gifts! Or rather, pictures!

PICTOBLOG
oh yes, it's back.

Douglas has joined us in Australia now. Which is definitely a good thing since he would have been alone a lot in KK. Also a good thing since he wasn't at home when we were robbed.
Anyways, on to our Melbourne trip during the Easter break.

This is Cleo! She's my Uncle Shin's dog. She's sooooo adorable. :3 When she likes you, she brings this ball to you to play catch with.


We had lunch at Aunty Mee Mee's house! She prepared everything and it was so good.

Just look at that Lemon cake and tell me it doesn't look absolutely delicious. I dare youuu.

This is Mitchell and Jarod!

The new set of twins in our big family! :D

The other being Jordan and Sheldon. :D

 THEY'RE SO CUTE. AREN'T THEY? AREN'T THEEYYY?!


Jarod drinking milkd. :






Mom and half of her siblings.

Cousins and aunties


We went up Mount Dandenong and walked around the National Rhododendron Gardens.


Kinda looks like pieces of shit, doesn't it? :P


LET'S ALL HAVE SOME SHROOMS!


The Nobbies!

 Oh right, Alex came and hung out with us. :D

It's so pretty and cold there.



Dim sum with the family. :)










PHOTOBOMBERS.

All because i did this in December.






CHOW CHOW. :3

Anyways, guys. Our house in KK was broken into on Wednesday. I don't really feel like talking about it much cause I don't really know what to say about it. It's just been a series of unfortunate events, i guess. Beeteedubs, if you haven't read a Series of Unfortunate Events, you might want to. I enjoyed it. Granted I don't remember much of it now but that's cause I read it YEAARRRRRSSS ago and my memory retention really isn't great.

Yeap, second half of the semester and I'm done with all my assignments. The only thing left is to conquer my finals! Life.

Love,
Steffi.

And We Don't Know How

I'm determined to post here at least once a month. Just to keep in the habit of writing regularly. It's a really low standard that I'm instilling as of now. I'll blog as frequent as I can motivate myself to but I don't want to make any empty promises.


Supppppp, tumbleweeds? Blogging here seems like it's becoming a monthly thing. I'm back in Brisbane and amidst my first year in uni. While the amount of time spent on campus has decreased immensely to a mere 12 hours a week, majority of the extra time has gone into doing readings and preparing for lectures and tutorials. It's quite a big change from high school and foundation. There is, quite literally, so much time on your hands when you start out, you have no idea what to do in that spare time. So you decide to fill that time with Skype sessions with buddies and catching up on series you haven't been watching for awhile, unaware that you're wasting time you're supposed to be spending reading up on the countless chapters ruthless lecturers assign you to know before your class. I'm dramatizing all of this.

 

For the past half an hour, I've been trying to upload photos into my blogposts with different browsers but to no avail. I don't even know if reverting back to the stone age Internet Explorer will be much help but I've decided that I'm going to type up what I want to say before worrying about the photos since the focus of a post is writing what you want to say right? And photos are a secondary, albeit more attractive, feature of a blog.


Wow! Internet Explorer worked! Guess I shouldn't hate on you so much and give you more credit. :P For the record, the browsers that have failed me today is Opera, Firefox and Chrome. And yes, that means that I have all 4 browsers on my computer.


Anyways, last week I graduated from Foundation though technically I'd ended my two semester Foundation program last year. It was pretty awesome seeing everyone again since it's pretty hard bumping into each other with our personalized schedules of classes in the big city campus, Garden's Point. We didn't get robes but it's no big deal considering the graduation that really matters is the one when we complete our degree or master, depending on which we're doing.

It was nice sharing with you guys after such a long time and I'll try my best to do it with more finesse and frequency. Till next time, take care of yourselves!

Love,
Steffi.

Edit:
Danile Chen is being a baby about me not mentioning him in my post. So here you are, Danile. :P hihihi miss you ba.
