farewell weekend

The best of Britain

For those who asked me to find some hot Brit men for them in my year-out, task done :) (sorry amy - cant take them to aus)

They're hard to come by, but if you loook and take a few risk...its while worth coming over here.

Fri night...well, lets just sum up in - self confidence boosted, memorable, sweet and I wish it was friday night again (n again) hehe. oh well, love them and leave them :)
(and zel - i still like it when the guy makes the move;) )


and you know...when you walk down the streets and feel insanely jealous that the chinese chick is with the "gui lo"...hehe...well I feel better now :) and although...the mystery of why the gui lo always gets the chinese chick and not the chinese guy getting the gui mui?...well watch "yellow fever" @ Wong Fu productions

leaving UK with no regrets (apart from still not going to Manchester and LIverpool)


I've had the best year :)

Pics for now! words of love, true appreciation and happiness tmr :)

To do List


Man! there so much I've been inspired to do when I'm back in Melb!

One thing - through watching lots of LeeHom stuff on youtube, EDMAR CASTANEDA, and other musical events, I reallllllllly regret selling my piano.

I mean, it is a huge and expensive piece of furniture...but it brings me so much joy, when done for leisure and not those millions of hours spent practicing for competition or exams ~_~

hm...and inspired from my friend Aifeng here, think I'll buy an electric keyboard! So i can move around and still have seomthing to bang out some tunes! On the other hand....I really wanna pick up the Sax again....I'm sure I cant do both 1 cause of time, and 2 cause of money! Piano I dun need tuition but sax, I really need a few lessons to kickstart my memory. I can probably do a few scales and thats it.

Next thing are languages - def start doing my japanese, in preparation of going to Japan! I dun wanna start at the lowest language class when I get to Tokyo. Need to do some research before I get back!

Oh, also need new badminton rackets! I realise how many years I've had these....like 5 or 6!!! aha they're so heavy! compare to the ones now! at least it shows that I'm pretty good at taking care of them and havnt broken them in all that time :)

Oh another note....
Spent the weekend at home. This is the first serious weekend for like 8 weeks!!! The thing is, I think I go out quite a bit in London, that whenever I'm here, I dun feel like partying. Went out with work ppl on Fri - left around 1am, it wasnt to bad, since everything finishes at 3am...but the thing is, I just didnt feel like it. My wearing heals tolerance is def not building...arrrrrrrr so jealous of ppl who can actuallly walk around all day in high heals....

sat - went to TKmax! Its like a store which has random highstreet brands for cheaper price. Found a few things, will try to sell on ebay first, if it doesnt go, i'll keep it! fingers cross i'll make a profit :) so after that session, I decided to clear out my wardrobe, well not clear out, jsut reorganise it and realised OMG i have soooooooooo much stuff.

As ONE wardrobe, I probably need more clothes, but you have to remember that i still have boxes at home!!! omggggggggg hm..and i STILL feel like I dont have anything nice!! or when I try to figure what to wear, I'm always wearing the same thing.

Esp my Chevignon jeans..I've had them for like 8 years or sth. but still they're my fav! jeans...hm...apart from slightly not fitting into them now, but apart from that, its realllly comfortable....but but, its slightly getting a bit yukky and dodgy...really need something to replace it..but havnt found anything that hugs my butt just right, and of a good dress up/dress down style

sun - once again, just sat at home chatting online! cause thats when i catch up with ppl back home. After lunch went for another window shopping session! this time I didnt buy anything, but I had heaps of fun trying lotsa stuff on esp in Zara..loVEEEEE that shop! Have a few dresses tats nice and some ridiculously designed ones.

oh a final note!
ADD OIL TEAM MELBOURNE!!!!! my beloved baddy team has set off to adelaide for Unigames 2006!!!Its a fairly old team, only 2newbies, I'm sure they're gonna have heaps of fun and make me really really jealous :(

I hope the win!!!! hooah!

Oh..new york new york :)

look at what i'm gonna be looking at! :)

def going for a swim :)

Are we so different?


If movies/tv shows are a reflection of society...then, men are always bad?

Why does it always take them see the gal they so casually departed be with another guy, before they realise what they let go......?

Is it just "she is mine, and mine only...even if i dun want her?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Women, on the other hand...always knows what they're risking...
always knows how much it will hurt....but we tend to be in denial.

In denial, until we cannot be anymore...and then.....love sucks.

if only knitting a sweater (greys anatomy) will really help, i would so do it....but i know...unlike tv shows, where knitting attracts someone like Chris O'Donnel, it'll, in this sad little town of mine, jsut drive guys further away...


lets hope all television programs/movies are wrong

How to....


How do you make every chinese guy in the club try pick you & your friend up?

Step 1. Go live in a town that chinese ppl are minority out of forigners
Step 2. Go to a Latino night club therefore min. amount of asain gals
Step 3. out of your control...but have a group of lonely guys who go clubbing with no chicks...
Step 4. Dance with all your Brazillian guy friends and look really happy (cause you are of course! Latino guys = HOT HOT HOT)
Step 5. Ignore the chinese guys...
Repeat step 4 for hours....then Walah!!!! they all come running....!

Tips for that bunch of guys......
1. try not to look so desparate
2. trying to hump my leg is NOT a turn on, and will not get you anywhere...esp when you look "beef steak"
3. dancing with my brazillian guy friends to get my attention...is just weird
3a. humping their legs is....WTF
4. pick-up line including "yeah I couldnt pass year 10 in hk, so i came here to study"....is not that impressive.

but overall, probably one of the best nights out!!! Salsa is so so cool!....and i looked so soooo un-co, tried desparately to convert all my other "moves' to fit their music...but it didnt work. Its also weird to dance the night away to al these songs that you have never heard of OR....dunno what the lyrcis mean......but everyone is happy to teach ya.. so i was at least kinda shaking after awhile :) :) :)

Problme with meeting all these language school ppl is that they really cant speak english....although as advice by many, lots of action doNOT require words....haha..still, it would be nice to be able to confirm whether he is interested or not....or simply if he does wanna meet up or not...instead of doing crazy, frantic hand signals/movements!!!

therefore....i chickened out, meeting up with Jon.....hm....mr law/tennis coach brazillian.....~_~ too bad....leave it to fate. :)

Wimbledon 2006!!!!!!

my CRAZY year continues!!!!!!!!!!!

Wats better to top your already amazing yr-out experience than to camp out all night!!!!!! on the streets for wimbledon 06 centre court tickets?!?! (ok...well getting them would be better...but...)

So Aleta and I drove all the way up from Bournemouth and got there around 7!! and parked in bloody Putney and walked all the way down, only to meet an already enthusiatic crowd who has been there since 4pm!!! wtf..those ppl obviously dun work!

Her mate katie was amazing to drag a bloody big double matress to the place!!!!! we were set!!!!! :) so as no. 357 in the queue, the hope for centre court tickets were gone!!! so it was either court 1 or 2!!!

The night out was quite nice, i havnt been camping in 3 yrs, and took a bit of time to adjust, but since Katie is a cook, the pasta salad, roast kitchen and cheese made the night amazing! ohoh and the wine!! hehe :)

so here are the pics...


us all set out to camp out! Queue card no. 357!!! :)

thats the line going UP!!! ppl with BBQ....now thats the way

katie! the superwomen..manage the drag a double mattress and a suitcase from farrrrrrrrr far away!!

they moved us at 6am in the morning down from the hill into the opposite golf course! still lining up.

So around 6am, they come and move us closer to the grounds, and then ask us what tickets we want...since Hewitt was playing on court 2, we decided on court 2 instead of 1! centre court...long gone and had Agassi and Sharapova :( damn...

After that, we go through a security screen :( which...haha, I got pulled up for my blade!!!! hehe...and the police was like..."why do you have a blade"...haha they were so tall, was a bit intimidating, but I'm like...."i work in an architects office...."! feel so silly, had to chuck the knife obviously.....but I actually like that blade!!

Finally got to gate 3 around 10am...man such a long long journey...but well worth it, but by then i already really needed a shower, and the 31 degree day wasnt helping!!
But HEY we got 3rd row seats!!!! :)

finally getting there!!!! @ Gate 3 :)

the crazy gals! who lined up all night!

Elena Dementieva - sooooooo powerful

Strawberries and Creme ^_^ YAY and my dodgy 1pound Asda cap


Picked court 2! so I can see Hewitt :)

The game was wayyyyyyyy too easy for him!!!

thats the ROchus!! haha...got kicked, didnt even try!

Jelena Jankovic - such a powerful player!! beat Venus

Looking defeated! but gosh! she is sooooooo powerful!

The whole experience was incredible! just to be in it, work ppl thought i was crazy to line up...but ppl do it every year, and I think...even if you ahve tickets...its just an interesting experience and cultural thing to do.....

it really helps when ppl who live on the street also enjoys this yearly craz and come out at night to hand out donuts, coke and beer!!!! haha sharing the love and keeping this great english tradition!!! Do ppl line up like that in melb?!?!

Then....damn bloody england lost!!!! man..I knew it was going to happen....because things come in threes! 1st Aus goes out, then Argentina - my sweepstakes team, then England.....haiiiiiiiiii so so sad!!!!

Oh well, theres always next one! in SA!!!!! now...i dunno who to go for?!?! probably Germany........

Then..there is Beckham, why do ppl have to keep giving him so much crap?! Ok...he is even smart enough to step down as captain, before he is pushed off! man...this guy isnt as stupid as everyone makes him out to be...he just loves his football and happens to be good looking! and has an alternative career. he cant be blamed that Eng didnt do that well!!!! He had an awesome season in Real Madrid....and ppl dun pay him that much and let him play on the team jsut cause he sells alot of shirts!!!! So now, he has to worry about weather he'll even keep his place in the team!!!!! So beckham!! plsssssssssss work hard and hold your place....plssssss just 5 more games and you'll reach 100caps! plsssssssssssssssss someone, hit him and make him realise he can still mix it with the young guns! and be known for those fantastic freekicks!!!!! aim to be the Zidane of England...plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
