Pray for a pass

I managed to make it thru these few days with just 2% of my internet left.. Hehe.. I'm a damn lucky girl..

Random post because I just felt like blogging somehow..

Cracking my brain these past few days for SM assignment.. I don't hope for a good grade for this assignment, I just pray for a pass.. Seriously.. I exceeded the word limit and have no idea what I'm talking about.. Kua Kua Kua..

Another week is about to start.. I hate Mondays and Tuesdays because I have full day classes then.. Sianz.. Looking back, I've been here for 7 weeks liaoz.. The stuff I ordered should online should be arriving soon and my Mum's sending a parcel of Singapore stuff over.. Hehe.. If only she is able to send local hawker fare over..

I'm supposed to be damn sleepy now but for some reason I don't want to sleep yet.. Haha..
Ok so to the rest of you sleepyheads out there, Good Night!

Barossa Valley

Hello all!

Just came back from a very interesting outing to the Barossa Valley! Weather's getting a little warmer nowadays.. Need to turn on the fan in the room liaoz.. Anyway, lots of pictures for this post so be prepared.. Haha..

The first winery we went to was the Kies Estate..


A super huge Siberian Husky was standing there in the rain even though it had shelter behind..


Went into some gourmet tea shop after the wine tasting..


Next winery was one of my favourites.. It was called the Chateau Yaldara..



The huge barrels used to store the port wine I think..


The lady who introduced the wines to us and let us taste them.. I fell in love with the Muscat and bought 1 bottle after that.. Haha..

The beautiful underground facilitiy..

Wine stored here for dunno how many 100 years liaoz..

And the case of Muscats.. Bought 6 with some others as we were entitled a 10% discount..


So pretty.. The entrance to the wine chambers..
Man.. I love this picture.. Hehe..

Ravin & me..


Some lion statue thing..

This got the others laughing in a fit.. Haha..

Some lady statue thing..

Went to some sheltered place to have our packed lunch.. Some cold chicken salad thing.. It started to get cold so some of us went up the bus and ate our lunch there.. Haha..

Next up, Chateau Tunnuda..

After some wine tasting, settled on another bottle of dessert wine..



Cheeky me.. Hehe.. We were kinda traspassing on their wine storage actually.. Haha..



Hehe.. Me and my bottle of wine..

Rain's coming..

Christmas tree?



Dunno what we doing..

Our last stop, Seppeltsfield..




Didn't really like any wine from there so didnt buy.. Haha..


And my purchases of the day along with some lanolin cream which I didn't post here..

Ok.. Going off to TRY to do some work liaoz.. Freaking sleepy now.. Haha.. Bye Bye!

Funny Quotes

Hello all!

Some funny quotes that made my day..

Marketing Lecturer:

"The only time I hear laughter from this class is when it ends.. I'm going to find a tree and hang myself.. You evil children.."

Muahaha.. No one really bothered actually as we were all packing up to leave the class.. Haha..

Ruby- A guest was making a reservation through her to her resort which was a ski resort...

"Hi, could I request a room on a high floor and with an ocean view?"

Ruby: "Sorry sir, we are located on a mountain and our resort is only 4 floors high".

Muahaha..

Random Girl asking her friend for dinner very LOUDLY:

Girl: Eh.. Chi Fan ah?

Friend: Wo Chi Fan, Ni Chi Da Bian

Muahaha.. The Chinese people in the computer lab all bursted out laughing after that..

Korean + Mt. Lofty + Glenelg

Hello all!

Sorry for the lack of updates! I've oni 3% left of internet in my room so gotta wait for an opportunity to come to the computer lab to use.. Anyway, this weekend have been duper fun.. Went to lots of new places!

As mentioned, on Friday went out for Korean food followed by movie and pool.. Here are the pictures!

The hot pot thing looks pretty gross here but it's actually very very good!





And a picture from Empire!

Saturday- Went Go Karting with the school.. The guys didn't want the girls to go cos they wanted serious competition.. Like whatever.. Splitted up into teams and grouped with 2 Year 2 students- Grant and embarrsingly enough, I forgot the girl's name.. Oops!

Anyway, the race got pretty rough.. Each of us had to go 60 laps with switches between group members every 20 laps.. Pretty tiring.. The girl in my group got banged up by the other cars so badly until her whole helmet came off.. Goodness.. Therefore, Grant and I had to finish up her laps too.. Some other students out there were really having a real race so people like us had to be at their mercy of speeding, skidding, drifting.. Haha.. But overall, it was fun! And I had to suffer from aches and bruises after that..

The race track.. Expected it to be an outdoor one but in the end it was indoor.. Haha..

The aftermath of the race..

Came back home and Edwin, Marian & Sylvester suggested going up to Mt. Lofty to view Adelaide's night view.. Grabbed our windbreakers and blankets and headed to collect our pizza before leaving.. Reached the summit of the Mt. Lofty and saw a bunch of guys with their race cars standby-ing for a race.. Haha.. Like in Intial D like that..

Forgot what pizza was this liaoz.. All covered in chilli flakes..

At the summit.. Wondering what they're looking at?
This! The wonderful Adelaide night view!

Haha.. Bad camera effect and zoom..

That's how dark it was up there..

Pizza! Yum Yum!

The VERY happy and the VERY dao! Haha..

Eating pizza with gloves..

The photographer and the beggar..






Uncle Beggar.. Muahaha..

The wonderful night view!

Sunday- Woke up and went to Glenelg with Marian, Edwin & Aisah.. It's sort of a beachside kinda thing.. Had lunch at The Wharf..

Oysters! Natural & Kilpatrick.. Yum Yum!

Marian & Edwin.. Paiseh black black.. Haha..









Aisah bought a backpack and I bought a pillow.. Haha.. Forgot to go to the beach though so no pictures.. Sorry.. Haha..

Drove on to Harbourtown after that to get socks for Sylvester.. More shopping there but the shops all close at 5pm so we left for RIH..

Wonderful weekend spent! Ok.. Bye!
