4 more weeks baby!

Another week has flew past and i am so super done with assignments for this semester!! Now i am just awaiting for the results and it is pretty scary i say.. Well, now it is time to get all geared up and start studying for the upcoming 4 papers that i have in 2 weeks time!

This week has been super fruitful.. With the final chionging of 2 group assignments, going to school for burger, taking of photos, going to King's Garden for AWESOME Chinese Food, baking 3 batches of biscotti, played the first Trivia game in my life, had awesome Passionfruit Lush Chocolate Cake and Vanilla and Chocolate Cheesecake, Brownie from Ming Xian and many many more! It has certainly been fulfilling week with much love, joy, food, happiness and more!!!

Yet again, i am at a point of lost, where i do not know what to do.. As in i have no direction with assignments being cleared, and i refuse to start studying for the exams till revision lecture is over.. Hahaz.. So i decided to bake, clean my room, pack my items and watch movies! Wha, i brought home boxes from work, and i packed some stuffs le.. Hahaz! I am like SO DAMN READY to fly back home now lah!!

I have to start shifting these items to put them somewhere le.. Hopefully Chen Pei's place got enough space for me.. Hahaz! So far got 3 boxes le, i think max will have 5 though.. Ooops! I am just so super excited to go home!! Yet, the thought of coming back here for the last semester is getting quite depressing.. Because i no longer have the Campus View babes with me.. It is going to be so different...

So today i gave them all a mini mouse soft toy each.. To thank them for the really great experience.. To thank them for being part of my journey.. Also to give them my best wishes as they embark on a new journey.. I am really wondering how next semester is going to be like.. No more dinner together, gossip sessions, desserts, bakings and more.. Oh my, it is getting quite scary... But at least got Huai An, so still got A Friend lah ah.. Hahaz.. Like so pathetic sia..

Oh wells, better than nothing i guess!! Should count my blessings, not rant about other stuffs.. Okies, i better head to bed soon.. I have got to work tomorrow and i am going to attempt to make Tiramisu! Wish me luck people!!

CAUSE I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO BE HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =)

DONE!!!

I AM FINALLY DONE WITH MY ASSIGNMENTS FOR THIS SEMESTER!! WHOAH!!!

So today has been SUPER exciting!! Other than PURPOSELY going to school to eat my beef burger, we also took many many many photos!!

The BURGER GANG!



Beautiful shots in School!!! IPSWICH CAMPUS ROCKS!

Then at night we had dinner at King's Garden! The FEEL OF HOME BABY!

Char Kway Teow, Sweet and Cour Fish, Mapo Tofu, Fried Rice and TANG CHU Pork Slices!!
Also got Duck in Plum Sauce!!

So feel like home! Hahaz! Oh, i also decided to bake raisin and chocolate biscotti today cause i am so done with my assignments.. Food really makes me happy.. =) Now i am super nervous with regards to the results for the assignments...

Oh wells, now it is time to gear up to prepare for the upcoming exams!! JIA YOU EVERYONE!!

I am blessed with friend like this...

As i am awaiting the final proof reading from Poh Suan and Perlin, i shall blog about the lessons i learnt today... With the campus view babes, i have learnt many valuable lessons and am grateful to each and every of them...

Yiwen:
Today, she pointed out my super bad point, that i love to put in so much information that i end up stepping on my own toes.. This is so true when i write my essays, thinking that quantity is better than quality, this skimming through the points instead of picking a few vital ones to analyse and be focused about it..

I am super grateful that she has taken the effort to point this out to me.. This shows that she cares for me and genuinely wants me to improve in life.. Thank you for being so selfless babe, giving me valuable pointers for me to take in life... I am going to miss the valuable insights that you provide me with, always triggering my brain to think critically and not just skim through.. I am going to miss having the clutz around to be the joy of everyone.. I am going to miss your "你做么这样!" (hopefully this is correct).. I am going to miss your drive in life, because it inspires me to work harder..

Xue Ying:
The super awesome word processor (and i think we ALL can agree on that).. Thank you for taking time out of your super busy schedule to read my assignments, giving me pointers and helping to edit the language when my brain starts to shut down.. I am grateful for the really understanding and helpful you, to help me along my journey rather than let me die... Hahaz..

Thanks for the awesome music that adds life to the house.. Thanks for putting up with my weird habits if i have any (which i think i do).. Thanks for putting up with my super restlessness at time (most of the times i think? =p).. I am going to miss the music around the house when you graduate.. And although sometimes your laughter can get quite creepy when you watch your shows, i know i am going to miss them as i am used to them..

Ming Xian:
You are my food sharing buddy.. And when you turned up with the cappuccino wafer rolls, it just help to brighten my night.. I know this might sound damn lesbian, but sometimes, a little food surprise goes a long way! And you came at the right time when i was so frustrated with myself..

Thank you for being the really awesome and unique you, always so ever-ready to be my food sharing buddy.. From cheap arnotts biscuits to PREMIUM Tim Tams, i am really going to miss this special relationship of ours when you graduate... Thank you for hearing me rant about the whole wide world and being so bitchy when i know i should stop doing that.. Hahaz! Thank you for being my running buddy, coles buddy and the really early riser to start the day...

Joyce:
You are the 开心果of the group.. And the REALLY TALENTED AND AWESOME chef within all of us.. I really respect your philosophy of life, where it is too short, so we should just eat everything we want.. Too short to worry bout so many things in life.. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work, and it has really been awesome to work with you.. I sincerely hope that in future, we would have the opportunity to work together!

Thank you for being the really cheerful and accommodating one amongst us.. I am going to miss your "this is too much!" or "this is ridiculous!" when you graduate.. I am going to miss the daring you that experiments with food yet turns out so delicious everytime! I am going to miss the SANGRIA craze with you when you graduate...

Shuk Wai:

Your passion for Arashi (hope i spell correctly) is just so amazing! I really salute the passion you have for them and i hope that they are able to succeed for a long long time! It really amazes me as to how you can work so well under pressure, meeting tight deadlines and still produce such wonderful results.. You are amazing babe..

Thank you for putting up with this blind bat, sitting at the front of class, right smack in the middle cause i cannot see.. Thank you for teaching us how to make SUPER NICE Chawanmushi and ONIGIRI! Your love and understanding of the Japanese culture and cuisine is just so amazing! And you can speak and read their language too!! Like super wow!! I am going to miss you my Simpsons and Family Guy buddy, it is going to be weird without a cartoon partner when you graduate.. But you must stay positive and expand your social bubble okie?

Thank you babes so much for being here with me on my journey... I am truly blessed and i just want you babes to know that.. Seeing all of you everyday just brightens my day, giving me the strength to move on despite the really screwed project mates that i have sometimes..

Sincerely, i am going to miss you all and writing this entry has made me cry... I am touched to tears, and i just want to say a big
THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU ALL!

5 more weeks to home!

Okie! School for 2 more weeks, 1 study week, 2 weeks of exams and it is HELLO SUNNY ISLAND!! 5 more weeks till home and i am so looking forward to it!! WHOAH!!!

This week has been rather intensive for me, with loads of projects as usual.. After Thursday this week, i can take a small breather and say i am finally done with the assignments and projects for this semester! However, it is then time for me to start studying for the exams.. Oh my goodness, it is like a never ending cycle!! Hahaz.. But i should count my blessings that i have the opportunity to study overseas!

This week has been great with food too!! Had Tiramisu, Jelly, Sangria, AWESOME Viet Grilled Beef Noodle, Japanese Food, Veal Pasta, Passionfruit Yogurt Ice Cream and more!!! Full of food, now i am so full of fats! Hahaz! But life is too short, so i should just live it!! However, i have not been running for ages and i have a Standard Chartered race in December lah! I better start running after the final submissions this week.. No more excuses to say no time, because no more project i should have more time.. Need to run man, if not go back Singapore, the hot weather is going to kill me halfway through the run... Hahaz..

Oh yeah, tomorrow i am going for a field trip to the CASINO!! Hahaz! Awesome right! It is going to be my FIRST time leh!! So exciting! Hahaz! But before that, i got project meeting at 9am lah... My brains are so fried from the amount of work i have done today.. But i am thankful i have awesome project mates to help me along this journey...

This week has also been filled with emo mo mo sessions from various people.. Sometimes i wonder, why do people go into a emo mode? Don't they know that it affects others? I mean, i also go into emo mode, but i also don't know why i emo.. HAHAZ! I should stop being a b****, but be a nicer person to everyone.. However, sometimes it is so difficult when you are so irritated already.. Aiya, this week i kinda am a little short fused.. Should not be this way, need to kick away that habit!!

Okie, so i am scheduled to fly on the 21st November! Whoah!! I am already counting down since i do not know when.. I think i am the only nut that is so DESPERATE to go back home.. Hahaz.. Nothing wrong mah, miss home loh... Hahaz...

I need to sleep now lah.. Slept for 5 hours last night cause i was chionging project.. Oh wells, better sleep now so i can get about 7 plus hours of sleep hopefully.. Hahaz!!

Cannot wait to be home in Singapore where the sun is shining so ever brightly at me! Where all the love and good food can be found! Looking forward to my eating adventures back in Singapore with my cousin, Ian, Rennie and hopefully my poly babes got time too!! Then soon it is CHRISTMAS people!! WHOAH!!

Okie, i think i am super high now due to lack of sleep.. Good night people! Till then, take care!!!

Another week gone..

Okie! This week has been really exciting with the release of results for some assignments and clearing two more projects off my hands.. So now i am left with 2 group projects and 4 exam papers... I think my brain is going to grow really big over the exams due to information overload.. Really hope that the lecturers will be generous with their tips... Hahaz!!

So today, i came home after camping over at Joyce Chen's place.. Went there to chiong our F&B project, which was rather productive i would say.. However, we still have loads of editing to do and the introduction, conclusion, executive summary and more more more!! So actually we are not close to done lah.. Sian..

I also got to start doing on my gaming group assignment.. Haiz, it is so tiring that everything is just piling up and i am seriously damn tired.. I really need a day to rest, recuperate and be rejuvenated to start again.. But then again, i do not even have that 1 day lah... My brain has been constantly thinking non-stop for the past months please... Need a big break.. It will come soon, and i know...

So, it is 6 more weeks till home baby!! Now i know my exam le, last day on the 18th, not sure if i should go back on the 20th or 21st.. Although it is just one day, the difference is rather big to me.. Hahaz! I need to faster decide if i want to settle my next semester's accommodation before leaving or come back here le then find.. Got pros and cons lah, either i pay empty rent but secure a venue, or save at least $1800AUD but risk to come here and find.. Aiya, so irritating ah!

Today i had my FIRST OFFICIAL FISH AND CHIPS in Australia.. Hahaz.. It is nice, but SUPER SMALL.. Stupid me, decide to take the snack pack instead of the original size.. Finish eating le still hungry... Then went shopping at Riverlink and bought many items!! I got myself a new dress and a cardigan, but the dress ah, i need to buy a proper inner wear to go with it.. Cause the cut quite low and weird.. See lah, this is what happens when you buy something on impulse..

Today ate ALOT of fruits lah.. High in sugar ah now.. Apple, Pear, Strawberry, Rock Melon, Banana and Prune! And cooked a BIG pot of soup for myself which is what i really need cause tonight is so FREAKING cold lah! Save an awesome portion for tomorrow!!

Today has basically been a slack day for me, in some way, but i can't seem to get projects off my mind.. It just keeps popping into my head and i know i have SO MUCH to do yet i refuse to get started again... I shall rest for the night, and get back to reality tomorrow..

6 more weeks to home Sheryl.. Persevere, press on and be optimistic.. You KNOW that you can do it.. So no use grumbling, instead seek a solution! I am watching CSI but my eyes are closing lah.. I should really go and sleep now.. Till the next entry, take care and love ya all!!

EXAM TIMETABLE IS OUT!

Okie! So today has been rather exciting.. I got the results back for my Global Culture Essay and Presentation... My essay got 25.5/30 and the presentation is 15.5/20.. So overall, 41/50, the other 50% is going to come from the exam...

Talking about exam, the exam timetable is out lah!!

Oh my goodness!! Super back to back can! But i should be happy that at least i do not have 2 papers on the same day.. However, my last paper is at St Lucia at 8am in the morning lah! I seriously do not know how i am going to make my way to school.. Maybe i should stay at a friend's place.. Should try asking if i can take it at Ipswich.. I am the only nut among the Campus View babes to have 4 papers lah.. Sian to the max can! Somemore all is memorising work! ARGH!!

Just hoping that my lecturers and tutors are going to be generous with the tips.. Like SUPER generous... =) That would really make my day!

Then should i go back to Singapore earlier leh? Cause i got a job lobang and my parents would love it for me to go back earlier.. But then again this is the 'last' opportunity that the 6 Campus View babes would have the opportunity to travel... In such a dilemma now! ARGH!

8th October

YIPEE! Just got back my gaming essay and i got 26/30 for it! Yeah! This proves that it has been worth the intensive research babe! Yeah!!

Now awaiting results from 2 presentation, 1 Culture Essay, 1 Tourism & Leisure and Behaviour Essay (to submit tomorrow)...

Then need to start working on 2 group assignments, 1 Gaming and 1 Food & Beverage....

Then 4 papers to go..

AND IT IS HOME SWEET HOME BABY! As much as some might dread the end of the semester, the super loser me is actually looking forward to it! Hahaz..

Maybe cause i am really sick of working with useless people.. Sometimes, sticking with your own people is the best, but then again, what would you learn from sticking to the same group time and time again.. At least i can proudly say i have worked with different people and went through different shit... At the end of the day, as long as i have done my best, all WILL be fine...

Get back and stop blogging Sheryl.... JIA YOU!

October is here!!

Yipee! Finally October is here! Which means i am 1 month closer to home baby! Yeah!

I just came back from Sydney, okie maybe not just but this morning.. This week has been quite a hectic week.. With chionging of project, working and traveling.. Although traveling should be happy and relaxed, it did not really seem for my case.. Could not stop worrying about my projects and also did not have enough time to do loads of things.. Technically speaking, i only went for 2 full days, in which 1 and a quarter day was RAINING lah.. Dampen the mood only...

Wha, Sydney is a FOOD HEAVEN please! I had ALOT of food and i can feel so much bigger in size now lah! Hahaz! I am a sucker for Chinese cakes, and i bought s0o0o0o0o many and finished them all lah! Got Char Siew Pau, Hazelnut Cream Sponge Cake, Coffee Cake, Walnut Butter Cake, Mooncake and many more!!! Then also had AWESOME Macadamia Flavoured Pancakes at Pancakes on the Rocks..

Had my fix of SALMON!! Had not ate salmon in AGES and i 1 X GOOD ONE had a WHOLE cutlet of grilled salmon and shared salmon sashimi with Clement.. SHOIKNESS to the MAXIMUM please! Hahaz! Also had AWESOME chocolate at Max Brenner's Chocolate Cafe, Lindt Cafe and Taiwan Food!! See, all the food, how to not grow fat right?

But there was one that did not score so well, and that is the Hurricane Grilled Ribs.. I think it is SUPER OVERRATED lah! The pork rib was SO SMELLY! You know that disgusting pork smell? It was FILLED with that smell.. Then the Beef, no taste, not juicy.. NOT NICE! Paid $21 AUD for it, super not worth it.. I personally feel that Cafe Cartel's $13.90 SGD St Louis Pork Ribs can win this atas place hands down.. But oh well, i guess it is up to one's preference... Though if you ask me, i would NOT recommend you to go..

So want to see pictures can see from my facebook! Hahaz..

Okie, it is so time to get back to reality.. Got presentation this Wednesday and nothing has been finalised yet.. This Friday also got individual submission but i feel like a lost bird again.. Super depressing.. Then 2 more week from now got 2 group submissions coming up and we haven't started yet.. Oh my goodness! Enough time or not?! Hahaz.. Stress ah!!!

Once the project stress is over, time to start studying for exams.. WHA! Sian man.. Hahaz..

OH! But i have something to look forward to and that is the TAIWAN TRIP with my PARENTS! Awesome ah!! Muahahaz! Finally i get to go Taiwan! But now 90% confirm, so better not hold my hopes too high for now.. Hahaz.. Still, it is very exciting!

I have so much to blog, so much to comment, so much to write about.. But i am really very tired.. Woke up super early to catch my flight back this morning, then have been doing rubbish stuff till now.. Why do i always lack the discipline to get started and cracking leh? Haiyo, need to kick this habit..

Anyway, i am just glad that the Campus View babes are back! Like at least there is more sound, live and laughter around! =)

Okie, i shall head off to bed early tonight and start early tomorrow.. Need to continue pressing on, no more time to fool around! Jia You Sheryl! Go Go Go! You can do it one!

7 more weeks to home! WOOOHOOOOO!!
