Evax

Went to Toowong and bought some stuff. Came home for a short while before going to uni. It was the first Grand Evax for this semester. :)

After that, I had my lunch and headed for class. Later, I attended the tutorial before going back home.

Cooked spaghetti for dinner before retiring to my room...

Rain Rain Rain

It's almost the end of Winter and it has been raining since 3pm. There were warnings of dangerous weather but luckily it didn't happen.

Earlier in the morning, I made myself a 'proper' breakfast. Had eggs, sausages and baked beans. :)

Went to uni and had class from 3pm to 7pm. Afterwards, I went to get some groceries. Came home and cooked cottage pie for dinner.

Later, I worked on my assignment till it was time for bed...

Monday

It's been so long I can't remember what I did on this day. Nothing special I guess...

Refreshing

Got up and had my breakfast. Did my quiet time as usual before taking my shower. Said goodbye to W who will leave for Sydney at 5pm. Then, SH and I left the house.

Headed to Church and was a few minutes early for CDS. This weeks class was good. And right after that, we had pre-service prayer, followed by our Afternoon Service. :)

And after the great service, we went out for dinner. QUT3 ended up joining us too! We ate at MadTongSan2 and I ordered Bi Bim Bap.

Bi Bim Bap

Reached home at about 9pm and took my shower. Read some stuff before writing this post. It's 11pm now and I'm gonna sleep early for once.

Another Wasted Saturday

Gosh, wasted my day again today. Only managed to do 2 parts of my assignment. And, it was raining almost for the whole day.

On the bright side, I managed to cook mash for lunch. For dinner, I had mash and corned beef. The food turned out pretty good.. :)

Lifegroup at S-307

Went out at 12pm and bought myself 2 cheeseburgers from Macca's. It was their anniversary promotion. Each customer were allowed to buy up to 4 cheeseburgers at the price of AUD1 each! Promotion is available daily but only from 12pm to 1pm.

3 beautiful birds outside my window. =)

Cheeseburger for AUD1

Then, I went for my group meeting till 3pm. Came home and cooked "Stir Fry Beef with Ginger and Shallots". It was a failure but people still said it was nice. In fact, it was nice but it wasn't what I wanted.

Stir Fry Beef with Ginger and Shallots

Went back to QUT for pre-lifegroup prayer. Then, we moved to L Block and had our dinner. When we were all satisfied and happy, we went back to S-307 and continued having a great lifegroup!

By the time I got home, it was already 10pm. Cleaned up, washed up, and stayed in my room for the rest of the night.

Thursday

Bought groceries before heading to QUT. Had a group meeting before class. Tutorial started at 5pm and class ended at 8pm.

Cajun Chicken with Rice - AUD 4.00

Then, I went to buy butter chicken for dinner. Once home, I had dinner and did my work till it was time for bed...

Oh...

Went for Timeout today. Got to know some others a bit more and at the same time had I enjoyed the company of my friends.

Later, I went to International Student Services and talked to a staff. She gave me the same answer as the other lady. She contacted the Finance department and they will look into it. I'll have to wait...

Went for class till 6pm. Then, I went to Hungry Jacks for dinner. Came home after that and started reading last year's lecture notes. :P

Gosh

Got an email saying my course enrollment will be cancelled. Apparently I didn't pay my school fees. After class, I went to Student Services and the staff helped me transfer the case to the Finance department.

Went for my lecture from 5pm to 7pm. It was quite interesting because a guy working in the Computer Forensics industry came to share with us.

After that, I headed to the corporate prayer meeting in Woollonggabba. It was another amazing session.

Came home and made some noodles for dinner. It's 11.21pm and I'm gonna sleep soon. Night...

OMG, It's Week 5

It's week 5 already! Went to uni and had my group meeting. After that, we went to class till 3pm. Had a subway sandwich for lunch before going for the tutorial.

Walked to Coles and bought some stuff before going back home. Made myself some spaghetti before retiring in my room...

My First Day As An Usher

Wore my formal top, put on a pair of jeans, sprayed some perfume, waxed my hair and put on my contacts. Then, I went to Church.

Attended half of the CDS class. At 2.10pm, I went out and all the ushers gathered. We had our briefing and at 3pm, we started 'work'.

It was a good experience. It's quite interesting to actually go behind the scenes and do some work.

My job for the day was to stand at the front door of the second hall. Welcomed people and gave them the bulletins. The other thing I did was give out welcome packs to the front left portion of the first hall. After service, we also helped dry the communion cups. You probably won't know what this whole I'm trying to say in this whole paragraph. Oh well. :P

For dinner, we went to this Vietnamese and Chinese restaurant in Hawken Drive. Ordered the Crispy Chicken with Rice which turned out to be quite good.

Crispy Chicken with Rice - AUD 8.90

By the time we finished dinner, it was only 7.30pm. Talked a bit before S dropped some of us home.

Spend the rest of the night resting in my room. :)

Cake Day

In the afternoon, J picked me up and we went to pick MH. Then, we went to JK's house and made 2 cakes. Black Forest and Cheesecake. The Black Forest

After we were done, we played some cards till about 6.15pm. Then, we had a slice of each cake. Was a fun day. It only costs everyone 3 bucks for 2 cakes. :)

Chocolate Strawberry Cream Cake

Chilled Cheesecake

Took the bus home and was back by 8pm. Cooked up some spaghetti with tuna for dinner. It was simple and nice.

Tuna Olio Spaghetti

Ironed my shirt for tomorrow. It'll be my first day serving as an usher. Excited!

Its Friday!

In the morning, I tried some biscuits from Peru. It's biscuit with honey. Was quite good. Thanks to W who let me try them.

Biscuits from Peru

Made baked tuna potatoes after that. Took quite some time but it was fun.

Baked Tuna-filled Potatoes

Then at 5pm, I headed to QUT for lifegroup. I expected today to be a relaxing one. But it turned out to be busy. Either way, I enjoyed it. :D

Disorientated

Felt quite weird today. It was another day of uni but I guess I got disorientated from yesterday's holiday.

After class ended at 8pm, I went to say "Happy Birthday" to E who just finished celebrating her 21st in Pancake Manor.

Later, I had dinner in Hungry Jacks before going home...

How I Wasted My Holiday

*This post is super short because I typed it just now but somehow it didn't get saved*

Deep Fried Mac

The only thing I did today were watch Naruto, talk to people, made deep fried mac and cheese, washed clothes, bought some stuff from Woolworth and Kmart, wasted time, and spend 2 hours on the introduction of my assignment.

Excited Bout Tomorrow

After breakfast, I went to get some stuff from Indooroopilly. The reason why I went all the way there was because my mixer was not working and I went to exchange it.

Later, I came home and ate my lunch. Then, I took the bus to the city. Walked to uni for my tutorial. An hour later, I went for the lecture. There was a fire drill so we couldn't finish the lecture material.

Went to Chapel for prayer meeting and it was AWESOME! I just love how our prayer meetings always become spontaneous worship sessions. :D

After that, a few of us had free drinks in La Dolce Vita. We also shared 2 pieces of cake. Tiramisu and Brownies. It was a nice time of sharing and getting to know each other more.

Mugacino (Cappuccino in a Mug)

Tiramisu

Brownie and Ice Cream

Came home at about 10pm and read a bit of notes before writing this post.

Tomorrow is a public holiday and I can't wait to spend time in my new house with the oven. :P

Week 4

Got up and did some work before heading to class. It only took me 15 minutes to get to QUT. Had a group meeting followed by a lecture.

Sausage Roll and Chips Combo - AUD 5.00

Then, I went to the library and got some work done. At 4pm, I went for my tutorial. An hour later, I met up with my housemates and walked to the city.

Bought some stuff from Coles before going back home. Did some tutorial work before having my dinner.

At about 8.30pm, we left the house and went to Southbank and watched a Green Lantern! This time, I could redeem my free movie ticket. :P

Came back and did some work for a while before going to bed...

New Begining

Today's a new day. I got up at 9am and did my quiet time. Then, I had my breakfast and cleaned up.

At 12pm, GTM sent me to the new house. We took my stuff into the room and they looked around the house.

After that, I went to the bus stop to go to UQ. The bus was late but JF drove by and picked me up.

Went to register people from my lifegroup into the CDS classes. After collecting the notes, we went for the classes.

Next was pre-service prayer, followed by the church service. Today's topic was on Friendship with God.

Later, we went out and ate the refreshments provided. The food was really good today.

We went in 3 cars for dinner at Old Town. I ordered Ipoh Hor Fun which was just normal.

Then, K dropped me off at Coronation Drive and I walked back to my new home. Had a long chat with my new housemate before unpacking some stuff.

Took my shower and relaxed for the rest of the night...

Movie Night!

In the afternoon, I cleaned my room. Then at 4pm, I took the bus to the city. We went to Southbank and wanted to watch "Rise of Planet of the Apes". But, the tickets were sold out.

So, we went back to the city and watched it at Myer Center. Since I didn't have the Myer card, I had to pay AUD13! Could have just paid AUD6.50!!

Tickets

Anyway, because I didn't expect much, the movie turned out to be above my expectations.

Later, I took the bus home and slept in that room for one last time.

QUT4 Lifregroup in QUT

Got up in the morning and made Fried Mac. Then, I went to uni and met my group for assignment. After that, I waited till 4.30pm before going to the Chapel.

Had worship practice till 5.40pm. Then, we headed to O Block for pre-LG prayer. Next, we had our lifegroup in O314.

It was our first Lifegroup in QUT and it was quite fun. We even had new cutlery! :)

Food!

New Utensils :)

At about 9.45pm, we went back to the city. Took a bus home and got back by 11.30pm...

Thursday

Got up in the morning and did some packing. Did some work and went to the city after that. Bought some containers and bag from "The Reject Shop".

Then, I went for class from 5pm till 8pm. After that, I went to TL, E, and LR's house warming. Had a nice hotpot dinner before coming back home...

Semester 2 First CCM Timeout!

Did my laundry in the morning and did some packing. At about 11am, I took the bus and met CZ. We bought lunch from Sushi D'lite and went to uni.

Attended CCM's first Timeout for this semester. For the first time, they provided us with food! 3 of our friends MADE 5 containers of sushi for everyone!

Japanese Curry with Pork and Rice - AUD 5.00

Sushi by LR, SY, IC - Priceless

We had our own lunch, the free sushi, free drinks, and some snacks. But, the most valuable thing was the fellowship! It was awesome! Many turned up and I got to talk to quite a few new people.

Group Picture!

C....

CCM!!

All of us went our own ways at 2pm. My stomach was so uncomfortably bloated thanks to all the good food!

My class was from 3pm to 6pm. By the time I got home, it was already 7.10pm. Ate my dinner and cleaned up. Then, I went to my room and rested for the night...

Tuesday

It was a different Tuesday. At about 12pm, TL, JC and I went to Stafford Heights and helped a friend move her stuff to Kelvin Grove.

After that, I went to uni and had class from 3pm to 7pm. Lecture was interesting but at the same time boring. Haha...

When the class ended, I walked over to Woolonggabba for prayer meeting. Today's prayer meeting was spontaneous and special. Enjoyed it a lot.

Ate my dinner at Hungry Jacks before coming back home to retire for the night...

Eight Eight

It was the start of my "war". Lived my day according to the timetable I set. Left the house at 10am and was reading some notes in the garden.

Later, I went for my group meeting. After that, we headed to our lecture. Next was out tutorial. That ended at 5pm and I went home.

By the time I got back, it was about 6.30pm. Ate steak and sausages for dinner. Cleaned up and went to my room and used the laptop till now...

Service in KG

Had my haircut in the morning. At about 1pm, I went to Kelvin Grove and printed some stuff. Then, I went to church. Today's service was at F block in Kelvin Grove. It was way bigger and nicer. :)

Waiting for the bus...

After service, we had refreshments and hung around for a while. Then, we took the bus to the city.

We had dinner in MadTongSan. It's a famous Korean restaurant and we were lucky because we didn't have to wait for too long.

I ordered Bulgogi which was quite nice. When I was done, my stomach was so uncomfortably bloated. :P

Bulgogi - AUD 12.50 (before discount)

We paid the bill and left. Walked to King George Square and took the bus home...

West End

Got up early and was in the city by 8.45am. Waited for everyone to arrive before going on the bus to West End.

We spent few hours walking and buying stuff. I bought strawberries which was quite cheap compared to Coles. I won't buy them anymore though. Once I got home, I realized how lousy they were.

Anyway, we had fun buying cheap vege. We also tried out some food. I bought a Vietnamese Dumpling which was made out of banana and coconut. I also bought super expensive Churros which I won't buy again (I don't like the lady).

Vietnamese Dumpling

Churros - AUD 2.50

The others bought stuff like Langos, Licorice, and some sort of Turkish pancake. Later, I also bought some meatballs. That was the best thing I ate in the whole market.

Meatballs (4 in a stick) - AUD 2.50

After all the shopping, we went to Three Monkeys for a drink. I got myself an Iced Chocolate which was refreshing and energizing. Stayed there and chat with each other before parting ways.

Iced Chocolate - AUD 5.20

Some of us then took the bus to the city. From there, I took the 433 home and took a nap...

Nothing interesting for the rest of the day. Planned a timetable for the rest of my semester. It was a busy and packed one.

So for the rest of the night, I watched Naruto for the very last time this semester. I can foresee a very busy sem.

It's 2am now and I can say, I'm ready for the challenge!

Lifegroup is Back to Normal

Earlier in the afternoon, I prepared some strawberry and kiwis. Melted some chocolate and put it in a bowl.

Strawberry + Kiwi + Chocolate = HAPPY PEOPLE

Went to uni and had a group meeting. Later, I did my quiet time in the garden. At about 5pm, I walked over to Hungry Jacks.

Enjoying nature...

Waited for a few people before taking the bus to Gabba. Had our full-fledged lifegroup today and it was lots of great food and fun! Girls went crazy over fondue! :P

Everything ended at about 9.30pm. I then helped clean up and took the bus home afterwards...

Thursday

Went to uni for my tutorial and lecture. It went on from 5pm till 8pm. After that, I met up with JC and we went to Nudo's on Mary for dinner.

I always thought it's a nice western noodle place. Turns out, they sell Malaysian Food. Not that I don't like Malaysian food, it's just I don't like paying over 10 bucks for something that is only worth RM5.

Ipoh Hor Fun (It's actually Cantonese Fried Hor Fun) - AUD 10.60

Had a nice time talking to each other. We were the second last customer so we quickly paid and left. Took the bus and got home by 10.30pm...

3rd

Nothing special today. Did laundry before going out. Bought some stuff from Kmart and Woolies. Later, I went for class.

It ended at 6pm but I was having some problems with the printer. Took the 7.10pm bus home and had my dinner just before 8pm.

Came to my room and used the laptop to sort out some stuff...

Hmm

In the afternoon, I had a talk with AS. She said she'll help me move out. Later, I went to uni for class...

At 4pm, I bumped into JK and then M and her friends. All of us then went to get free coffee thanks to East West. Got to know 3 new friends and later VH joined us too.

Headed for class and that ended at 7pm. Went to the chapel for prayer meeting. Had a great time praying with QUT4.

Later, I went to the city and got myself dinner from Hungry Jacks. Took the bus home and got back by 10.30pm...

August

Today is week 2 of the semester. Went for class at 1pm and met VH. After class, we sat at the garden and talked till it was time for our tutorial. At 4pm, we attended the short tutorial.

After that, I went to the city and took the bus home. The bus was really packed but I managed to get a seat.

Back home, I had dinner with GTM and family before cleaning up. Came into my room and used the laptop and also did some work.

Gonna end this post here and do my tutorial. Night...
