1st April 2010 Dinner with Ken’s mates at Pancakes on the Rocks at Northmead. Been there twice and already sick of the menu. Not much of a variety and wasn’t in the mood for sweet pancakes. Catching up with his friends for Ken’s and George’s 24th birthday and before Neil goes on his overseas holiday. I got George this cute little cheesecake from the T2 cafe. I’m going to go back soon to try their high tea. I love tea at T2.

3rd April 2010 Happy birthday to Ken! I came over in the afternoon armed with lots of groceries! Since we had been eating out a lot, I thought it would be special if I cooked him a 6 course meal for dinner! I got a small gift box and filled it up with lots and lots of yummiful chocolates and a card that had tonight’s menu. I ended up cooking and serving

• Garlic bread,
• Pizza muffins,
• Wedges,
• Chicken and corn soup,
• Chicken caesar salad,
• Creamy chicken and cabanossi fettuccine carbonara,
• Mash potatoes,
• Chocolate cake with cookie and cream ice-cream.

There was suppose to be choc-chip cookies but it was midnight by the time we had the cake and I was exhausted!

5th April 2010 My best friend went to Hunter Valley (2nd weekend in a row) and got a bit of food poisoning so she was very very sick. When she got back, she came straight over and gave me a hug because she was home sick. awww. It was a nice moment but a bit awkward because we don’t openly hug as much so it was very unexpected. She got me the wine I wanted to try - Rosemount Rose O wine and she also got me a compact mirror. <3 Jane.

8th April 2010 Had my Deloitte Group Assessment Centre. It wasn’t as daunting as I expected and I believed I did relative fine. It was basically an introduction presentation with a director and previous graduate at ITS and more about what they were looking for, and in this case a developer. Then we got started on our assessment – group discussion, individual presentation, group discussion and then written component. Afterwards we had a tea break and I got to know some of the people a bit better and found out by the HR lady that 11 of us were competing for 2 spots in ITS. Afterwards we had our mini individual interviews which I believe I did good in.  Afterwards, we got a short tour around the ITS office and then home time! 3 hours later while at Chatswood with Ken, I received a call saying I got into the final round – partner interview! So excited! But then that left me in a tight spot because Accenture hadn’t gotten back to me on my pending position. For dinner we ate at New Shanghai Chinese Restaurant, and it was pretty average food but the decro was very oriental which was what attracted me in the 1st place. However, it does seem I’m not much of a fan for chinese food.

10th April 2010 A very adventurous day! We started at the Merrylands Children’s Festival with a pork roll. Then to the Surry Hills Festival with a slurpee and chorizo burger. Ken won me a cute panda which now resides in the back seat of my car. <3 Bus it back to Town Hall and realised since we were near Myers I can finally buy Mario Badescu Silver Powder ($38). Definitely worth the buy as it is going to last me forever! The day was still relatively early so we decided to venture out to Bondi Beach. It was really nice just sitting on the grass and taking in the view of the water and the dogs around. I have never seen so many dogs in one day – it seems everyone in Surry Hills and Bondi has a dog! There was this cute on at Bondi just running around being super cute and friendly to everyone and dog it bumped into. It made me want a puppy even more. We headed to Hurricane’s Grill and Bar at 6:15PM and it was already packed! We were there around 5PM (almost empty) to see if we could book but the waitress just told us to come in any time and wait for a table since they weren’t taking any more bookings for the night. We waited for almost an hour for our table and ordered Boerewors (African beef sausage) and a rack of lamb ribs. Not very satisfying at all. The ribs came out half burnt and I didn’t like the sausage’s texture very much. Ultimately disappointed considering my friends says they have the best ribs here. Rumps and Ribs is still my favourite. Afterwards we made it just in time for fired Mars bars! Not as fantastic as I once remembered it  thought. Disappointing food day but it was great to be able to venture out like this. We haven’t done anything like this since we 1st dated two years ago.

13th April 2010 I had my partner interview with Deloitte and it went relatively well. Although, I got a call couple days later and got told I didn’t make it into the final two positions. I got lots of positive feedback but they thought I wasn’t was enthusiastic as the other two who made it. Fair enough as I wasn’t because I wasn’t sure if I wanted to continue my career path down web developer just yet. But I’m happy I made it this far and it just boosts my confident because I have made it through to majority of the graduate programs I have applied for. At least I have my Accenture offer.

15th April 2010 Another adventurous day in the city, this time in The Rocks area. I booked a High Tea Cruise but somehow just got a normal cafe cruise. But it didn’t matter, it was $36 pp so very cheap for a boat ride around the city. I felt like such a tourist just viewing my own city while the actual tourist were busy .. sleeping? I have no idea but the table across from us kept staring at us or sleeping. Annoyed, so we left to go on the deck. After our hour boat ride, we walked around The Rocks and shopped near Circular Quay. There is this cute little book store that sells all kinds of interesting books and I’ll definitely go back and buy some birthday gifts there. We had dinner at this random restaurant within the Nurses Walk Precinct and although it was relatively expensive, the food was really good. As the menu was limiting, we ordered a wagyu burger and butter chicken. Afterwards, we went to Guylian Belgian Chocolate Cafe and my friends were right, it was a big disappointment. The waffles were the big square style and cold and the chocolate didn’t melt into the waffles.

17th April 2010 Officially broke after this night. Spent my newstart money + more within a week! >.< Went Whitewater rafting for Nhung’s 24th and it was awesome! Lucky I got a wetsuit because I did injury my elbow and it was bleeding under the wetsuit) when the raft got flipped and I was trying to put my arm out to avoid hitting my head on rocks, and during that process I lost my shoe which a nice guy found and threw back at me. Cherie on the other hand, lost her one shoe for good. As fun as it was, it was very tiresome and I was living off 3 hours sleep as well. >.< Took it all out of me. That night, we had dinner at Outback Steakhouse at North Strathfield and once again the food was average. But it was a fun night catching up with the girl and some of the MQ uni people I used to have lunch with.

21st April 2010 Ken’s 1st official face to face interview at French Forest. Very exciting to see him all suited up for his interview It was a fair distance to travel by public transport so I have no idea how he is going to do this everyday if he gets this job because traffic is terrible so there would no way I be driving.

24th April 2010 ATO assessment at 9am to test data entry skills. Ken did his assessment while I worked on my HR law essay at a cafe across the street. Explored Penrith Westfield for a bit and it quiet small.

27th April 2010 Ken finally bought work shoes! This now hopefully ends our shopping adventure. There is so much shopping one can take especially when it is to the same place over and over for the past two months. We had lunch at Iconic cafe in Parramatta Westfields and they have the best wedges there! It crunchy on the outside but fluffy inside and still maintained it hotness throughout our 30 minute lunch.

29th April 2010 Ken needed to go get his academic transcript for his interview on Monday so we headed out to Macquarie Centre for lunch. Despite wanting to try out the korean place, I was craving eel. So we went to the Sushi train next door and it was ultimately disappointing. I think eating out so much has made all food disappointing to me. I expect too much. Anyway, the sushi were really cold even though the sushi place was packed! Lots of sashimi which I’m not a fan off and my eel was too bland with old rice. Since I was so disappointed and unsatisfied, we went to Chantilly’s Coffee Lounge and we had the New York Cheese cake and one of their unique herbal teas. Made my tummy feel a lot better

I’ve been out all the other days too but I can’t seem to remember where we went for lunch or dinner. I should really label them properly in my diary for next time.

Sahara Turkish Restaurant: I seldom go here but when I do I’m never disappointed. This time we had lunch and ordered a seafood basket and pesto chicken and it costed us $30. Good value, good service and yummy satisfying food! Next time we are going to come back and try the lunch banquet. The table near us ordered it and it was very big and had lots of variety.

Souvlatki Hut: So one day, we got hungry and decided to drive to Souvlatki Hut at Northmead as it was 10 minutes away. It was like walking into a fast food store and we got a lot of meat with our order. The pide was so nice and soft and the lamb was just right. <3

I’m so sick I can’t remember anything else right now. Oh wait, Ken won me a toy on the 1st go! YAY. Evil machines have previously ate up our money, but this time my panda has a kitty for company. Also, been seeing puppies everywhere, on the street being walked, friend’s facebook photos, walking past pet stores, even puppies being sold on the street. I really want one now. Anyway, back to bed I go after I proofread my essay.

5th March 2010 <3 my BFFs Jane and Greg. We went to Surry Hills Longrain for dinner to celebrate my job offer. We ordered

• Stir fried squid & smoked speck with ginger blackbean snow peas & chilli
• Twice cooked lamb shoulder stir fried with red curry paste wild ginger & holy basil
• Caramelised pork hock with five spice & chilli vinegar
• Sample plate (for dessert) containing Coconut caramel custard with grilled banana, Vanilla Flavoured tapico with palm sugar ice cream, Black sticky rice, custard apple & sweet coconut ice cream and Coconut & durian pancakes with passionfruit ice cream.

This would be the 1st time I have gone to a super expensive restaurant and it would say the cost was worth it (although I do feel bad that my BFFs shouted me $179.50 for dinner) for the quality of food and spending time with my two best-est friends in the world. The fried squid and smoked speck was disappointing as we were expecting something more grand but otherwise everything else was perfect. I loved the caramelised pork hock! Perfectly cooked – crispy and tender and it caramel was just right – not to sweet or salty so not sicken.

12th March 2010 Dinner with Buie at Giovanni’s at Birrong. As it was in a bowling club, the atmosphere was very causal and it was order and pay and grab a beeper. I ordered a Tortellini Boscaiola and Meat Lovers pizza. Pretty reasonable price and yummy for club food. It was great to catch up with Buie as we are both so busy with work/interviews/studying.

18th March 2010 Lunch at Ikea with Ken. I’ve been craving for hot dogs and after a long morning of shopping we decided to drop by ikea for some cheap lunch. I actually wanted bangers and mash but apparently that is served after 5:30pm so I settled for $2.95 meatballs and mash. But that wasn’t enough so we went downstairs for $1 hot dogs and had some mustard. I starting to like mustard more and more I have it! I might even replace my love for bbq sauce!

This was an extremely long day of shopping. I’m surprise we even have the energy as been spent the whole of March just going shopping for 3-4 days a week! This day we went shopping around North Parramatta then to DFO, Rhodes and then finally Macquarie Centre.

19th March 2010 Due to the Event Cinemas $10 tickets promotion a month ago, I had two tickets that were almost expiring so Ken and I decided to watch Greenzone. The storyline/plot was good but the handy-cam shoots gave Ken and me such a headache. Before the movie, we decided to finally go and eat at Outback Steak House and the food was alright. I still like Ribs and Rumps better, although the rib sauce does get sickly sweet.

20th March 2010 I had dinner with the girls & partners + greg at Perama Greek Restaurant for my 24th birthday this year. I was recommend to me by a friend as I wanted to try something new. I don’t think any one ended up liking it as we got the banquet. Most of us were expecting lots of food (especially meat) as we had experienced at a Lebanese banquet but we all felt we got really ripped off. Afterwards I was still starving so I went searching for dumplings, but my bad mood made me lose my appetite after I finally found a dumpling place. We all ended up at Homer’s Cafe in Ashfield with the group in an intense discussion.

22nd March 2010 Happy birthday to me I got bought myself the Logitech Gaming keyboard (G110) as I wanted a lit keyboard so I could work during the night without the lights on. I also got Ken a early birthday gift (foot massager) as we been shopping heaps and his feet hurt a lot! He got me flowers for my birthday! <3 Never received flowers before for my birthday and they were purple too so I was very excited and happy.

24th March 2010 Lunch at Cabra at my favourite place – Viet Trung. I really love eating here. Cheap and makes the food the way I like it.

25th March 2010 We had an expensive lunch at Hilltop Phoenix at Castle Towers and we weren’t even satisfied! It was a long day running around trying things on, shopping and exchanging good so we ended up getting hungry again! Headed up to Hornsby Westfield just to check it out and it was a really long drive.

26th March 2010 Mum ordered me my birthday cake at Tin Tin Cake Shop. I absolutely love the cake here. It was so fluffy and light, I can eat the whole cake without getting sick! I also got my new phone – Nokia N97 Mini in black! Yay! A very spoilt few days for my birthday.

28th March 2010 Birthday dinner with the North Shore group for the March babies at Stephanos Ristorante.

I had lunch and dinners on the other days including the days until the end of the month but I can’t seem remember where!

6th Feb: Morning started off with yum cha and shopping with the birthday girl aka BFF Jane. Went to Dotti and the dress she wanted was GONE! NOOOOO! But luckily there was another dress she liked. PHEW! Rush home only to find out my rainbow cake was eaten! So had to attempt another rainbow cake. Unfortunely, it didn’t turn out as great. As I was strapped for time with dinner being less then 2 hours away, I try to cheat and layer the mixture. It turned out ok but some parts of the colour bleed into each other. Icing the cake was a big mistake. I tried to cut out the layers and wanted to put colour icing in between to make it more rainbow like. BUT the cake was fairly warm, so by the end of the night, the cake was WAY TOO SWEET as the icing has soaked thru. But it was the effort that counted at least.

- 14th Feb: Chuc mung nam moi! It’s Tet (aka vietnamese/chinese new year aka lunar new year) and we started the morning off with some offering and prays. Instead of relaxing we ended up working.

- 25th Feb: I’m so excited. After 3 weeks of interviews, I have landed myself an official offer at Accenture. Still have to read through my contract clarify some details, but I start on the 15th April. EXCITED

12th Feb 2010 Spend the day with my boyfriend. He spoiled with me a Stitch doll, Spot doll and two fake roses to represent each year we dated. This might be a yearly thing so once I get another one I can put them in their own vase. At the moment, they are sharing a vase of a few fake roses mum and I have brought. All different strangely enough. I went non traditional and got him something he needed – an iron and a purple ironing board. Yes, non traditional. Also shouted dinner at a Chinese restaurant. I don’t usually eat at a chinese restaurant, only been maybe 5 times in my life. Now I realised why, it so damn oily! I was completely turned off even tho I ordered the duck because I didn’t know what else to order.

13th Feb 2010 Parents started off their morning going to Cabra for food. Luckily we prepared our offering food the night before, so I was able to set the table and do the prays. Kim came early this time round and it was a shock to see him. He so damn tall! 180cm+ I think and his only 16 this year. He seems a bit more confident although his posture is very bad. He such a good kid. He has a goal, to get band 5/6 for maths. I’m proud that he thinking about it and going to try although he going to need to put in a lot of effort to improve his current marks. His next goal isn’t looking so good. He wanted to do 3 unit maths to make his mum proud of him. Sweet as it is, I don’t believe it is a wise idea. I rather have his mum being proud at him for getting into university rather than doing 3 unit maths and not potentially doing so well. It may appear his going to follow into my footsteps into IT but focus more of the developer side. There still hope for this boy <3 Amanda is pretty much same old same old.

14th Feb 2010 Chuc mung nam moi! It’s Tet (aka vietnamese/chinese new year aka lunar new year) and we started the morning off with some offering and prays. Instead of relaxing we ended up working.

19th Feb 2010 Katherine (Phil’s girlfriend) organised a surprised 24th for Phil. It was so sweet of her and he organised it a month beforehand too. Party was at Mizuya where she booked a karaoke room and we can order food by a touch screen. Pretty much like Wagaya but with Karaoke. It food was nice, but much prefer Wagaya. It was a fun night, although I was really tired from early morning and rushing around all day. Also I got major blisters (9 in total) from walking to Pyrmont to Town Hall in my Bett’s heels. I think I’ll stick to my Naturalised heels next time.

25th Feb 2010 I’m so excited. After 3 weeks of interviews, I have landed myself an official offer at Accenture. Still have to read through my contract clarify some details, but I start on the 15th April. EXCITED) My start date has been push back until I complete my degree.

So in between those events I can remember I’ve been:

• Watching Valentine Day with BFF Jane
• Watching The Wolfman with Ken thanks to MX free tickets
• Lunch with BFF Greg after my 2nd Accenture interview. Exciting that I get to see my BFF Greg more often since he finishes work at 12pm and my lunch is at the same time and work is only across the street!
• Interviews Interviews Interviews .. something to fill up my time from now until my start date
• Working working working .. long hours hard labour .. thank-goodness I’m not a dressmaker and been making progress with Open-Opportune
• Cleaning cleaning cleaning … been trying to declutter. I’m getting there. my wardrobe is left and I’m half way there! Must really sort them out since I can’t find specific pieces of clothing I need/want to wear.
• My car turned 1years old! Washed and vacuumed but it just had to rain.
• Celebrated our 2 year anniversary <3
• Dinner at Longrain with my two BFFs – Greg and Jane <3 to celebrate me finally getting a proper job! wOoO! <3 you two! It was a wonderful dinner. I highly recommend if you have a money to burn. It is well worth it.
• Eating out quite a lot more, especially with my parents. I think we are going to make it a weekly thing but I don’t think my stomach can handle that.
• And Macquarie University study period has started again. I’m up-to-date thank-goodness. Well actually, since classes were today, I’m behind by one weeks worth of lectures

Well that was a long post hopefully more regular post soon …. and new layout!

Another long busy week! Although I have been feeling unwell, reacting terrible to the weather change. A lot of dizziness, upset stomach, dehydration and soreness. On top of that, I have a bad allergy reaction to something.

The past week, I did some shopping and score myself two pairs of shoes, lined up an interview, belated birthday dinner with Buie, belated XMAS dinner with North Shore guys, spending time with Ken and catching up with Amanda who just got back from America.

I got showered with gifts from Totran, Chauan and Brenda. Thank-you sooo much and now I’m in love with white chocolate mini peanut butter cups. I’m going to go and make some of my own when I finish them!

Dinner with Buie was at Leo’s, a random restaurant at Granville. My pasta was nice but too oily. Purposely order a main plate so I could take away it later for Ken, and he told me after he microwaved it, it was full of oil! Ewww.

Dinner with the North Shore guys at Canley Heights and we got to meet Jess’s new boyfriend. Must be one special guy since I never met any of Jess’s boyfriends before, let alone have her take them to North Shore dinner! Went back to Geoff’s to chill and have interesting conversations about relationships and picking up. Apparently, I’m a “movie and cafe” 1st date girl.

I made prawn dumplings yesterday and I’m proud of myself. No photos because I ate them all as I made them. Although they weren’t exactly like the one at yum cha, but still good. Determine to make them exactly the same one of these days.

Open-opp update: we have a new client! A paying client! Trying to finish previous projects off but lack of information is delaying the process. Hopefully I receive the information soon so I can move onto the new client project!

This week is one busy week! So far I have to:

• Do lots of filing
• Shop for BFF Jane’s birthday gift
• Do some experimental baking
• Book and get the Tarago in for servicing
• Book my baby Euro in for servicing. It’s also a year old!
• Banking and bills
• Take dad to see a special herbal doctor
• Help mum with sewing
• Beach with the girls
• Australia day with the girl
• Interviews

20th September 2009

Finally went shopping! Score a pair of Zensu heels from $149.95 to $30! Last pair in my size too! Also got a pair of skinnys for $20 at JayJays and 2 pair of colorful thongs from Cotton On. Dinner, had what I’ve been craving for .. hieu tieu xao kho Also I’ve been developing a habit of buying coffe and cake of the day lately.

21st September 2009

Spent time with the boyfriend but ended up napping most of the time. Really need to stop that! Started working on my business venture project. More details later.

22nd September 2009

Because I fell asleep at Ken’s on Monday, and left in a hurry, I forgot my hard drive, so spent another day with the boyfriend.

23rd September 2009

Thank-goodness I woke up late and parked my car inside. Dust storm made the Tarago so dirty! BTW, I really dislike the Hoyts website. It is too slow.

2 hours on the phone with BBF Greg … finally found a date to watch Wicked!! - WOooOooOo I can’t wait! Need to book tickets soon!

24th September 2009

on the verge of throwing my computer. wtf won’t PHP install! i followed all the fkn steps! - It finally worked. Still annoyed and lost sleep over it.

bf is so cute … got so excited that we r in the same groups for this semesters grp assessment .. big change from last semester!

25th September 2009

26th September 2009

Lebanese dinner for Diana’s 24th. 14 dishes I think. SO FULL! Also has a little issue with my tyre. I know how to change a tire BUT I don’t know how to use a tyre pump! LOL. Thank goodness for the nice guy who helped me! Shells air pump is so easier to use than BP!

Damnit! It’s almost week 4 and the only work I have done is PPS documents. *sigh

Sunday 16th August 2009

Spent the day cleaning and baking. Baked mocha mud cupcakes with (what suppose to be) white chocolate icing for Winston’s birthday. I had heaps of chocolate bits left over from making cookies a couple months back and I had a small amount of mocha left from my noon-coffee so I thought I might as well. I usually temper chocolate using the double boiling method but that takes too long, so this time I just added hot water and some milk and instant melted chocolate!

Phil picked me up and headed toward the Hume Highway Rashays. To me, there wasn’t much of a difference between the two Rashays, it is just more of a bitch to get the to Hume Highway one. I love the size of the drinks here! I usually order two drinks, but at Rashay’s, I only need one! Iced chocolate heaven

Monday 17th August 2009

Headed up to Buie’s, suppose to install programs onto her iMac but she was running late to Tafe, so ended up uploading all the programs (for a later time) and drove her to Tafe. Her Tafe is right next to UNSW Cumberland campus and it really sux to be a student there. A massive long line of street parking for students equals a very very long walk. Headed up to Parramatta to see if my test results came in since it has been two weeks and only one set came thought and so far a clean bill of health. Happy at the thought, but doesn’t explain what my body going through at the moment. Headed to the ken’s, armed with gorceries only to find pre-cooked food in the fridge from his mum. So the plan was, no cooking for the rest of the week!

Tuesday 18th August 2009

Early morning stuck in traffic on the way to uni with less than 40KM of petrol left. Finally got near uni to fill up ($70 for 620km) then found some parking before catching a bus to the city. I caught the longer bus which takes the North Sydney route and I thought I was lost!! But now I know where Waqu is! Meeting took a while but was rather productive and the finish line is within view  as opposed to a couple months ago where I was dreading if we ever finish on time.

Because my meeting look ages to finish, Phil was force to take his lunch break so I only ended catching him on his coffee break. I was starving and the chicken and mushroom pie across from Phil’s workplace (Shelly Street, King’s Wharf) was soooo yummmy! Frustrating point of the day was the whole prepay bus situation. I finally remember buses are pre pay from 7am-7pm. So I’m on Clarence Street, where the uni buses stop at, and I run to the nearest ticket store – “Sorry single student concessions are sold out .. do you want a adult ticket instead for $5?” So I run downstairs, having no idea what is downstairs and eventually find myself at Wynyard Station and the news stand there have run out too. I had to walk all the way around and finally found a news stand that had a couple student tickets left. Such a pain and I missed two buses! Does anyone know where the ticket stand is at Wynyard? The QVB one is right next to all the bus stops and I don’t see why we have to buy a ticket, rather can’t they just print us a ticket like they do at Parramatta in the mornings.

Wednesday 19th August 2009

Bought some Mongolian lamb from Pho 76 to Ken’s and tested out his new magic cooker. Ended up putting too much water in and the rice came out soggy, in between sticky rice and congee texture. We went for our walk in the evening, just once around the block. We are going to try and get back to the routine of our daily walks like we once attempted during summer. But it is nice, just to take a walk with the boyfriend, enjoying each others company

Thursday 20th August 2009

Woke up early but Ken didn’t end up going to his tutorial. The coffee cart where I get my coffee on Thursday mornings, usually fuck up my coffee. Once I asked for hot chocolate and another time I asked for a latte and both time they tasted like very diluted coffee. Today, I ordered my usual coffee – large hazelnut cappuccino and I got a very bitter cappuccino. It might start paying just to walk across the uni to the more popular coffee cart for better coffee. After class, I attempted to make fried rice from yesterdays rice and cook the mushrooms, bean sprouts and chinese greens with whatever meat that was left over in the fridge. It was an overload of vegetables mashed up in sticky rice. Well, it has taste at least and was edible. Next time, less water.

Friday 21st August 2009

Another early morning to get my Euro serviced at 8am. Free drinks at Peter Warren’s coffee shop if your getting your car service which was awesome. but soon the glasshouse got a little too warm for me, so headed back to Honda’s lounge to do some studying. So tired but didn’t want to go home and sleep. The Euro is still in top shape, minus so scratches and dent, they just had to do standard servicing and replace my right-side speaker. The rattling noise, is apparently occurring in the Accord Euro 09 models due to something about combustion and in a couple weeks, they will get back to me about it.

Afterwards, headed home to pick up mum and Stocklands for some shopping. As I wait for my mum, I was standing outside and noticed my car was clean! They washed my car! Awesome since i was planning on washing it on Sunday. Anyways, didn’t end up buying much, just new headphones and personal needs. Exhausted and sore, I napped for a bit then woke up to attempt to work. Not much of an attempt tho.

Saturday 22nd August 2009

Suppose to be doing some work but still haven’t gotten around to it. Woke up to some dramas and cramps. Did some cleaning and made some chicken meatball pasta .. mmmm.  Weather has been weird lately, either it is freezing or unusually warm. Just calculated this month spending .. and fuck I don’t even know where the money coming from for all this spending because I haven’t touched my savings (only for servicing) yet. Just have$1000 so far for this month. Bad bad bad bad. Only have $50 for the rest of the week, let see if I can manage.

15ML Curious by Birtney Spears .. this tiny bottle is for my handbag and hopefully it lasts longer than the 100 ML one

Mocha Mud Cupcakes covered in white chocolate icing for Winston’s 24th birthday.

Tim Tam Crush: Cookie and Cream .. omg I’m in heaven. I have such an addiction to cookies and cream. Found them at Woolworths (but none at Franklins)

New current favourite tea. Tried some at Swissotel High Tea Buffet and really liked it! I usually like fruity or floral teas and I always assumed this was like black tea. MMMM
