Easter break!

March 25, 2008

Yesh its the long weekends! Well not that long, tasmania has easter tuesday still! we only have till easter monday. HA!.. The weather turn very cool! low twenties and high 10s..perfect weathter..although for this week it will be raining. We just get extremes.. but i prefer this than hot!

And yesh over the break, i was having fun! Had a great time catching up my frens and of cos visiting my favourite winneries in the barossa! I just love the company of fun-loving and happy friends!

Over the weekend i had a couple of issues to faced too. I was very annoyed. Annoyed that my friends are hurt and offended by some1’s ignorance and insensitiveness. I am too tired of it! But fortuantetly my friends have been helping me and offering me advise. I think i was quite blown off by the matter cos i have been trying to help that person. But it seems my help all came down to nothing, if not things would be better right? But i am feeling better! Cos i know i cannot be responsible for the person’s action or carry the person’s burden. I just need to let go and not care so much.

Ahh pictures! and i hope they work this time!

It’s 40 degrees outside..

March 9, 2008

But fortunately i have an air-conditioner in my living room. So all my studying has been shifted to there since it is on 24 hours a day cos of the crazy heat! And fortuantely my room is nearest to the living room so i can open my door and let the cool air seep into my room. Due to the crazy heatwave outside, i have tried and tested plenty of solutions/ways to keep the room cool and here are my takes on it

1) Do not on ur lights in your room! keep it dark. light bulbs create more heat!

2) Close ur blinds! keep ur window shut and only opening it in the evening!

3)hang wet cloths near the window! helps keep the air coming in cool

4) as the bed is crazily trapping all the heat, lay a damp towel on the bed for 30 mins b4 sleep. n viola! cool bed for u to sleep on when u remove it

5) Do not on the fan in the room during the day, only circulate hot air n make it feel hotter.

I have been drinking so much water, barely water, cooling pear drink but i think due to the heat i lost weight again..  this is bad cos if this continues i will disappear into thin air.. i am eating very well too.. well you all shall see in my next post the amount of food i am gourging myself with..

Anyway as i sat in the living room studying, looking out of the balcony , into the crazy heatwave..  i missed home even more! 2 weeks le.. yea i am ok.. but i feel that i am just displaced from home. I feel like my whole body was taken out of spore to here without its consent. And i have to adapt to it.. yesh i am adapting but still miss home.. everything is so familiar here.. i am still stayin in the same old room same old place.. ppl are still here.. but is so not like home..

i am a home girl eh..
