What's G-day? Graduation-day! Hahaha. Yes, I'm finished with my exams and I must say, it's a bittersweet experience. It's my final exams of my whole university life. And I'm not going to take another one till I decided to study again, perhaps Masters next time? So yes, quite relieved but also sad that a new chapter beckons soon and I have to bid farewell to my student life and all the holidays and term breaks that comes with being a student. :( Say hello to 14 days of leave a year from next year onwards. Okay, that's very sad. Sigh.
But it also means that I have time to blog! Yay! :) I've got quite a number of food places to write up, I reckon and I think it will be good to reminisce about them before I leave Adelaide for good. :( Boo. I can also type up a number of beauty posts as well and clothes too! :) I've been pretty blessed by God on Facebook because I've won quite a number of contests. All praise and glory to Him. :)

Exploring Sydney :)
I went Sydney from the 2nd October to the 8th of October for a good friend and coursemate's wedding on the 5th October (Saturday). It was a really enjoyable trip and I have to thank God that I'm blessed enough to be able to go on this trip and see my good friend get married and have her own happy-ever-after. :) At the same time, exploring the other sights of Sydney as shown by my new and old friends in Sydney and eating lots of delicious food that Adelaide doesn't have to offer due to its population size. :)
I do hope to have the time to post up various cafes or food joints in Sydney because I did have the pleasure of going to eat at the places that the locals knew about, because in all my times that I've been to Sydney, I certainly didn't travel there before. So yes, either it's brand new or that I just didn't know about it because I'm not a local. :) Haha. And I was pretty lucky that the week that I was there, there were a lot of happenings in Sydney! First up, was the international fleet review (IFR), then it was the Art Festival (Art & About), then my friend's wedding. :) And I had the privilege to visit Taronga Zoo (much highly raved zoo to visit) for FREE. Yes, free! :) I saved like A$44 on the entrance fee, as I have a friend working there! Praise God! :) I took like almost 300 photos just during my 5 days there. =.= And my camera went flat on me on my very last day! Haha. Phew. It was a very good camera though. :) Seeing how it lasted me all 5-6 days and it only gave out on the last day itself! Hip hip hooray. My bargain is absolute spot-on! :)
I'm definitely very pleased with my camera buy earlier on this year. At first, I was a bit worried that my mum would nag at me because of the price. It was definitely $100 more than my budget, but seeing the quality of the pictures has definitely justified the price tag itself. If I had skimped on that extra $100, I doubt my photos will be that fantastic. I've had a lot of praise and compliments for my photos. Haha. And even though I've been claiming credit for it most of the time *ah-hem*, but it's also the camera that partners with my skills to capture the perfect shot. :)
I need more time. It's coming to the end of the year and that means CRUNCH time! I've got exams coming up and a huge assignment due end of Oct. :( So yes...hopefully I don't procrastinate too much! :)

Busy with Uni. :(
It's been a long while since I've posted. Uni's started and it's been pretty full on! So I've been quite busy trying to catch up. And the after-effects from my car accident have came back in full force to haunt me. :( I've resorted to seeing a physio and taking lots of painkillers to cope with the agonising pain. :/ I'm going to see a osteopath next week and see if that helps! Hopefully it does some wonders and I never have back pain again! :) Additional to that, I'm also down with the flu. So the past week, I can say, that it has been a pretty 'sick' week. Battling a sore throat, blocked nose and back pain (thank God that it's managed well with painkillers) can be quite difficult. And I'm not really managing it well as I've got assignments due as well. I thought this semester will be alright, but it's not. :(
2 of my research assignments are due next Friday. I think I'll have to ask for extensions if not I doubt I'll be able to complete as my flu medicines makes me pretty drowsy in the day. :( And I have 2-3 tutes a week which requires 1-2 days to prep in advance for it. So that doesn't leave me much time to do the 2 research assignments. :( Quite scared, I don't know even if I have medical certificate, can I still have a extension? :( But I will have to try!
Anyway! I was actually watching some video on Youtube, and I chanced upon Campus Superstar 3. The grand champion is seriously so good! And she's only 19 years old! Whoa! To get a score >55/60 is seriously quite good, especially in the finals! She reminds me of Campus Superstar 1, Teresa, who wow-ed the judges with her voice too. I love her songs '心痛' and '记得'. This young lady is a lookout for sure! :)
