How I entertain myself

It has been nearly a week since I'm stranded here by the river.

I guess it's not thaaat boring. I've been isketching, webcamming, singing with youtube karaoke etc to entertain myself. Just sang Miley Cyrus songs to myself eventhough it's 3am.

Another thing that I've been doing is pretty obvious to guess, especially for most of you who have been victims of my 2 famous lines:

"hey pretend to stranggle me but don't"
or
"hey punch me".

and yes I've been learning Wing Chun from this guy called Master Wong from youtube. Pretty random. But it's really funny.

I only need a few moves to defend.

It's either the neck or the face punch.

People just laugh at me whenever I do it.

Dw one day I'll get over this whole kungfu stage.

But watch out folks.

New Home, New Day, New Life

Welcome to my first post at Docklands, or technically speaking, Yarra Edge.

In this post I will talk a bit about my new house and also about my hometown Balwyn as promised.

I moved into Yarra Edge 2 days ago and surprisingly, I know how to drive from Balwyn to Docklands now (due to my awesome GPS and studying of google maps) but still don't know how to drive from Docklands to Balwyn (will do that this Sunday- if I don't turn up to church make sure you call the police and tell them your friend is stuck at "ab* drive"

Insider jokes aside, to my blog readers, my new address is

54, South Wharf Drive,
Docklands, 3008
VIC


No point trying to search it on your GPS because you won't find it.

If you guys ever want to come and visit me, please type in

99 Lorimer Street on your GPS/Map

That's where Subaru dealer is so once you see that turn right into Foundry Way then left into South Wharf Drive which is my house.

Location : About 1 minute drive from DFO South Wharf and 3 minutes from Etihad Stadium

So far do I like it? Yes it's a nice looking modern house and so far been leaving pretty comfortable in here.

Now time for my memories at Balwyn

Balwyn, my dear Balwyn house, we bought you over the internet 10 years ago in Malaysia, not even being there to see you for auction, we trusted God, and He provided us with such a special house.

You looked so good, my room was initially small, but luckily my never to be seen sister moved out and I finally got a bigger room. You were white, then my parents decided to make you brown. You were opened to the street, and my parents decided to fence you up. you had a bigger garden, and then my parents decided to build a deck on you. Oh well, you still ended up looking really pretty.

You were close to many places. Because of you, I could wake up only 10 minutes before school and still get to school on time. Because of you, I could always just leave my house 2 minutes before church starts and reach to church 1 minute late given that I drive 70km/h on Belmore Road. Whenever i'm hungry, I can just walk out to Kunyit and Red Lattern to get food. Whenever I feel like baking but don't have ingredients, Coles is just 5 minutes away from me. When I thought that my car ran out of battery but actually it was out of petrol, I could just call emergency 0411449226 and he came straight away to save me. Whenever I feel unfit, gym is just 7 minutes away from me.

Balwyn, eventhough I've only driven within Belmore Road, Greythorn Road, Doncaster Road, Whitehorse Road, and Highland Avenue, but I really do cherish the moments we have together.

I spent nearly half my life at Balwyn, and now eventhough I am a stranded city girl, I will miss you always.

Bought a new gaming keyboard today!

Microsoft X4

was going to get the logitech illuminance but they ran out of stock.

and no, this keyboard is not for me to play Sally Spa

it's just because it looked pretty.

Short Review:

Pros:
Good Looking
Good Price if buy from MSY
Backlight looks pro
Good thin size
Touch of keyboard quite good although a bit different to my old keyboard so can't type that fast anymore
Andrew has a similar keyboard
Apparently you can smash 26 keys at once but I don't see how it's useful for me.

Cons:
S1-S6 gaming keys useless for non gamers like me
keyboard space is more narrow so it feels more like a laptop keyboard than a normal keyboard
Spacebar is quite small.

Anyways,

One more day till I get out of Balwyn...

Next post is going to be dedicated Balwyn, my homeplace.

Give me an avatar

Moving house is exciting but at the same time SOOO DRAINING. It's like never ending packing. It's either i'm a noob in packing, or I just have too much junk accumulated over the last 8 years here in Australia. You won't believe how much junk I have....my mum keeps inviting this guy called Sam to come over to my place and collect "donations for Africa". I gave him 12 bags of clothes that day.

It's funny when your parents only allow you to put 3 things in your room. Bed, Table, and Chair.
No shelves, cabinets, or whatsoever to store my junks! Which means all my possessions = throw/donate/sell/giveaway.

The bad thing is I don't only have ONE room to pack, I have TWO rooms to pack because my stuff is scattered everywhere!

I wish I could have a Gloria avatar to help me to pack all my clothings and all I need to do is to sleep and "think".

Romance à Paris

J'ai juste réservé un hôtel à Paris pendant 3 nuits. Il coûte $190 par nuit mais il est proche de la ville. Cela signifie que vous me devez $288 Tim Ho Je célébrerai de nouvelles années à Paris encore ! Je suis dans l'attente pour aller à Paris !

Je veux apprendre le français!

Avant que je fasse cela, je dois commencer à apprendre comment lire des cartes. Mais, je ne sais pas lire des cartes. Nous n'avons pas les cartes ici en Australie, et l'Irak.



_________________________________________________________________________ Translated for French Noobs : I just booked a hotel in Paris for 3 nights! It costs $190 a night but that's fine cause it's close to the city. Btw that means you owe me $288 Tim Ho. I will be celebrating New Years in Paris again. I am looking forward to go to Paris!
I want to learn French!

Before I do that, I need to start learning how to read maps. But, I don't know how to read maps. We don't have maps here in Australia, and the Iraq.
