I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

weather has been rather freezing lately, although it's not as bad as winter. we took a nice long walk around the suburbs after dinner last night, the weather was cooling and the whole scenery was beautiful. could see houses decorated with colourful christmas lights.

i love christmas. it's the best time of the year. my favourite holiday. (:

Victoria Square has already set up a huge christmas tree and everywhere around the city is decorated with christmas ornaments. the place looks amazing. my first christmas in Australia. :D

will probably be setting up our own christmas tree next week. i can't wait to see my very own christmas tree in the house. that's something that i never had the pleasure of enjoying.

and also, we'll be taking a drive around town and the suburbs on christmas night just to see if there's anything interesting going on. i'm still hoping to see a shooting star on christmas night. Ray has spotted one last night while walking through the suburbs, i've only caught a glimpse of it at his cousin's place. that would definitely make christmas here memorable.

i so can't wait! christmas day is definitely going to be amazing.

And this is what my MSN states

27th November - World Emo Day

somehow, it cheers me up and makes me feel a little bit better. (:

the day has gone by in a haze. again.
i wonder where did time fly to?

damn, i'm emo.

Stuck inside a dream long gone

every now and then, i wake up feeling so lost, lonely and unmotivated. like the world has somehow moved on and left me behind. and all i want is my own little sanctuary.

guess this is just one of those days.

Simple spring breeze

it's just one of those lazy days where a person sits and stares at the road while the mind wanders elsewhere. it's unproductive, yes. but it's also refreshing from the past few days where it's filled with chores and assignments.

WoW is beginning to seem rather unattractive. levelling seems like a chore now, pvp is what keeps me stuck to the game. furthermore, the game's just too unbalanced now with all the DKs around. flavour of the months are annoying, wish it would just die down already.

i've been dreaming about home lately. about my little darling Tiara and silly Momochi. about life in Malaysia filled with friends and hanging out till late nights. i would not say that i hate it here, Adelaide is a wonderful place, but somehow, it's just not home. i've been here too short of a time to actually build up memories that'll keep me attached to this place, with the exception of the amazing Glenelg. who could ever resist having the beach just 30-minutes away? :)

but i miss my parents, my mom especially. i miss being pampered, having someone worrying about my well-being. and home-cooked food, oh how i miss her cooking. i'm starting to get sick of being independent.

of course, i could be thinking about the advantages of being in Adelaide. friendly faces is something that i get so often, genuine smiley happy faces. and delicious foods that i'll never find in Malaysia. all these helps ease the home-sickness a little. also, my special little boys are always prepared to put a smile on my face whenever i'm down.

i love spring breeze. it always smells to fresh and sweet. hard to believe i've just experienced the four different seasons in the past 10 months. this is definitely a memory to cherish.

alright, little Mickey's pestering me to prepare his dinner now. gotta run. :)

Tick tock

i need some sleep. but my brain just wouldn't shut down. have been thinking about the things that has to be done, and believe me, the list just keeps coming.

i can't wait for my package to arrive. i have so many stuff planned for it.

it's nice to see Orion and Mickey getting along fine. they've been sleeping together in the drawer of my little bed-side table for the past few days. what a sight to behold. i'm still surprised that they got along so well at such a short time. i was expecting a missing eyeball or a bitten tail before the both of them come to terms that they're harmless.

gotten two new baby ratties, & named them Winter and Spring. sadly, Dusty ran out of the house when Curious managed to open the door of their temporary cage. am still crossing fingers that Dusty will know how to find her way home. :(

okay. finally my brains have stopped working. guess it's time for bed.

Every little distraction


i've decided to finally go for the Samsung SGH-i900 Omnia instead. sure, iPhone definitely has the 'wow' factor, but like dear Ray said, what's the point of having something that won't satisfy me? (:

Omnia, on the other hand, is packed with loads of yummy features. a 3.2" touchscreen, 5mp camera with auto-focus and whatsnot and a hawt looking design. best of all, it reminds me of my old Samsung e310c. don't ask me why, it just does.

hee. just unlocked my se k850i today for free. now all that needs to be done is to wrap it up nicely and send it to Malaysia as someone's Christmas present. :D

alright, break time's over. time to continue with my DMT assignment. man. i have such a short concentration span, could have finished this by yesterday, but every little thing keeps distracting me and it took ages for me to gain back enough concentration to stay put in front of the computer doing it.

there i go getting myself distracted again.

Resistance is futile

tempted tempted. should i go ahead and buy it, even though i know i'll feel guilty later on for splurging too much?

making decisions is tough. why can't Ray come up with some logical reasoning to make me feel better? i want to get it, yet i know i should not. probably.

but how could i resist? :(

Sweet baby Mickey

silly Orion is feeling insanely jealous and insecure. took us quite a lot of pampering and smooches before he begins to accept Mickey.

little furball, if only he realises that Orion meant no harm. guess this shows that first impressions do last. but Mickey is such an adorable kitten, he craves for attention all the time and rewards you for basking him in it with a lick or two.


and his purr is the loudest purr i've ever heard. cuteness overload. <3

oh gosh, i see a little bird searching for worms in my garden. cute sight. :D

Mickey's claws needs to be trimmed, then he needs a shower before the vaccination which is due anytime soon.


got this picture when he fell asleep on my bed which i was reading. even Orion was never this affectionate when i first got him. Mickey's breeder really has done a good job on raising this fine young kitten.

just hope that these two babies would eventually come to accept each other. the tension around the house is killing me.

Unfaithful

i knew this was going to happen, knew i was supposed to prevent it from happening, but yet... i went along with it. and it turned out to be rather... unexpected.

for the past two hours, my life became rather topsy-turvy. tensions were rocketing around the house, and both parties were extremely jumpy. even Curious, my silly little rat did not brought a smile to anyone's face.

yup, i've officially gone bonkers.

it all started out as an extremely ordinary....
ah well, cut the crap.

i've gotten a new kitten. :D

went to Toucan Pet Centre on Rundle Mall and spot a cage filled with four adorable kittens. i placed my finger inside the cage and he licked it. it was love at first sight. if i knew he was going to be this affectionate, i would have gotten his brothers too.

named this little guy Mickey as he reminded me of a certain someone, and boy, he's a frisky one. he's way more active than Orion was on his first day. not only that, Mickey is so affectionate that i feel as if i'm going to be smothered by his attention.

Orion has begun to gradually accept Mickey, even though he is still extremely wary of him. who can blame him, he was the alpha male of the house previously.

*snuggle snuggle*

ah little Mickey, who can ever resist your little charm?

Position in queue: 422

after waiting like, forever, my darling has finally came home with my very own collector's edition of Wrath of the Lich King!

woohoo! baby Frosty the adorable little frost wyrm.
crazy thing about a new expansion pack being released, i had to wait in line of a 422 position queue that lasted for about 20 minute. this is definitely a first for me.

and yup, first thing i did was to start my very own death knight, with Frosty by my side. (:


although i swear, this is the last time i'm ever starting a DK class. got too whoozy at the end of the day. what do you expect from 6 hours straight of playing WoW? ;P


Tifania, my hawt DK. (:

i got to say, i really love how the story of a DK progresses, and it was fun trying something new out. although i have to admit, getting a free epic mount and all blues when you're level 55 is part of what draws me to DK too. this sure beats levelling a level 1 toon.

while Ray was waiting in queue, i logged onto my mage for a round of Alterac Valley and what do i see?

just as i've expected

Another year takes flight

yesterday, we celebrated our first year of being together. it was a rather simple dinner, yet, it was nice in a way. dear Ray cooked up a meal of roo steaks and veggies. love the tenderness of the steak. :D



i can't believe how one year just flew by. somehow, last year still felt like a dream. oh how much i miss my college days. just lazing around with my classmates and rushing off to Blitzone for a round of Dota every time there is a break in-between lectures. man, those were the days.

bah. Dota then, WoW now. the games just keep coming ay?

now i have a sudden urge to play Maple Story, just for old times sake. heh. i wonder when will RO2 be released in Malaysia. it is taking a long time for it to reach there.

Ray's out getting our collector's edition of WotLK. yup, collector's ed. we're such geeks. i predict another semester of distinction going down the drains.

seriously, i need to buck up. i can't afford to drop to only credits this semester. having certain loud noise people in my class is bad enough, i can't afford to show anyone that my grades are falling too.

i hate being pressured. :(


at least he always puts a smile on my face. :)

Snooze button

exhausted.
and yet, class is beginning in two hours.

why did i left the cleaning up for last minute? in fact, how on earth was the apartment messed up so soon? ugh. i'm hopeless at keeping things tidy.

WotLK will be released tomorrow, and dear is going to be picking it up once the store is open. can't wait for it, considering that i'll be skipping my tutes so that i won't be missing anything. i know, tsk tsk.

the morning is nice and fresh. i can feel the cool breeze blowing through my window. this is so much better than the weather yesterday.

i'd better cross fingers that i won't doze off in class. my brain is screaming for some sleep.

The sound of chirping greets morning

So little time, yet so much to do. At least one thing is finally out of the way, I've shifted to my little house down Arthur Street, or more like partially shifted. Nevertheless, I spent my first night snuggled in my new pink bed. :D

Just this little event made me realise that shifting from one house to another is no fun. Especially when you get tenants like me who messes up the place and procrastinates cleaning up. Which reminds me, the inspection for the apartment is happening this Thursday! Sighs. I don't like inspections at all, you get random people stepping in your place with shoes ON. Hopefully those who inspect the new place would be kind enough to take them out.

Perhaps i should place a "shoes off" sign right at the entrance. Heh.

I love the location of the new place. How could I resist it, with Coles and KMart just within 5-minute away, and yummy Asian food located close-by too. Now, all that's left to wait for is the sushi shop that's opening in a few months time.

Ah, heaven. (:

Simplicity at it's best

this blog was originally created out of boredom, but after spending countless two days on this layout, i didn't want it to go to waste. so yeah, i suppose you should be expecting some updates every now and then.

anyway.

welcome to may's blog. (:

the layout is not completed yet as there's a few minor tweaks left, but it's a pretty good one for now, ay?
