partying during the holidays
so, it's been like a week and what have i been doing? check it out.
No. 1 on the list is Shirlene and Anisha's surprise birthday party.
so, both were on the Sunday. went directly after church and i was rushing, afraid that Nicole will give me the talk for being late and making her anxious. HOWEVER, she was the one who was late because she woke up late and took time doing her hair. haha. oh well, i waited for like 20 mins at Flinders like some stupid person. then, we went to get Shirlene's present and because all the trams were headed to Flinders, we thought it would be faster to walk. and we WALKED ALL THE WAY FROM MELBOURNE CENTRAL TO LYGON!! i ended up sweating and smelly. felt it was awkward to wish Shirlene a happy birthday especially when i'm late and sweating. i did however wished her later. haha. after a wonderful lunch, we WALKED again...it was fun looking at christmas decorations and going to alleys with restaurants that i never knew of. then, both ashley and i WALKED, after meeting lynn and others, to sha's new apartment. we WALKED TO LYGON AGAIN!! not the whole part but got lar a long way. :) good exercise. need to lose weight before graduation dinner dance.
No 2 on the list is selling booksman, i never knew it was so hard to sell books. and people can really be a prick. went around 1pm to school. first round, only got to sell my chemistry books. it's almost like all these people don't want second hand books. complained and complained to mel and nicole. then, they said to go one more time and they'll help me. haha. sold almost all my books then. except for bio and esl books. i think no one wants to take bio. -_-!! still stuck with it. not to mention, the prices here are horrible but i gladly managed to sell most of my books for 2/3 the original price. they're brand new too. my check points were a sham. had to sell for $10-15. guess i'm still luckier than some.
No 3 is going out with my ESL gangMost of us were still here. There were six of us. dunno what happened to Frankie, Bethany and Sindy. Jun went back to Malaysia. Sandy was busy packing cos she was gonna go home the next day. I was at the boarding house and went with Mun Yee and Elisa. We were like 2 hours late. haha. went to eat at St Kilda at this burger shop. the burger was delicious. but the only stupid thing was when i had to pt down the order, i put it under my name, grace but the guy thought my name was chris -_-!! so when my burger was ready, they were calling "chris! chris!" i assumed it was me cos they have been calling for a while but i didn't wanna go incase it wasn't me. ish. after a long while then i went up cos they were still calling. yup, and truly it was me.
then we enjoyed ourselves at the beach. yaya was walking tip-toed cos she didn't want sand in her shoes. quite funny. and then, after nicole and yaya left, joyce wanted to lie down on the sheet too but she had to free herself from the sandcastle she built around herself. but sand managed to get into her jeans and she was trying to take them out. so funny. haha.
more stuff to come. wait for the photos. post them later. need to eat now. till next time, god bless.
