I'm flying to Melbourne alone tomorrow!

Melbourne here I come! I'm flying to Melbourne tomorrow. It will be my first time flying alone. I'm using the airport flyer bus from Toowoomba to Brisbane airport bus will come at 8.30am. It takes like 2 1/2 hours to get to the Brisbane airport. It's going to be a very very long bus ride. I hate traveling alone definitely not fun traveling alone. Oh wells what to do? My housemates Kittyeng and Melodii and a few of their friend  going Melbourne on Tuesday I wanted to follow them fly together with them but my aunt said it is better for me to go on weekend so that they can pick me up at the airport. If I go on a weekday they are all working no one is free to pick me up from the airport. So that is why I'm flying solo. Oh wells... I can do it will need to just keep myself entertained by listening to my Ipod, playing games on my Ipod stuff like tat I guess. I have no idea what I'm gonna do at the airport while waiting for my flight. Hmmm probably walk round browsing the shops there I dunno.

My mobile credit is so going down fast my mum, my dad, my aunt all was like call me when u reach the airport. All worried you see cos my first time flying on my own. Understandable. Am bit nervous myself. But I think I'll be fine! Just follow the signs then I'll be alright wont get lost definitely. 

Well I best be sleeping have to wake up early tomorrow. Ciao for now.

Went to Clifford Garden with Kittyeng today

While waiting for the bus at the bus stop took photo of the clouds thought it look nice.


I went grocery shopping today more like accompany her because I'm leaving for Melbourne tomorrow so I don't need to buy food. We went there everything was on sale... Here there everywhere sales signs in every shop. Here's two pics I took.





We went to the pharmacy first as I was coughing and was about to lose my voice it seem at one point so I need to buy Vicks VapoDrops to sooth my itching throat. So off we went to Terry White. Bought my VapoDrops, Knee guard/brace and the ointment thingy for my knee. Then we went to Divas I didn't buy anything Kittyeng did there is sales 4 for $10! So of cos Kittyeng buys something! I didn't because my mum called me asked whether I started packing yet o not and I told her am at Clifford she was like you're going to Melbourne why are you shopping some more. So I refrained myself from shopping just buy essential stuff I needed. Then off we went to Woolie (WoolWorths). Kittyeng goes bout buying her groceries I just tag along bought 2 kiwis and a 2 in 1 Palmers pack lip balm. So after she is done shopping we went to the checkout counter. Waited for our turn then when it's my turn the cashier didn't see my 2 items and though the whole lot was Kittyeng's stuff. I told her just these two she was like oh sorry didn't see... LOL... Funny... Oh wells...

After that we rush to get to the bus stop. We saw the bus already there. We run well I half run half hopped n skipped there as my knee was giving me problem again.  We didn't miss the bus which is good!

Bored Internet super slow!

Just when I'm free to do what I want as I have finished my exam today. I decided to go online and surf the net playing facebook games or watch videos online stuff like tat I find the Internet super slow. Kittyeng my housemate told me that we exceed quota. Was like crap finally have time to go online finish quota. I hate quotas. But have no choice the unlimited package is like very slow. Oh wells. I got some movies from her so that will keep me entertain for the time being. I'm going to Melbourne on Sunday anyways can use my aunt's wireless hope it is way faster then here. I think it will be faster.

I'm all hyped up bout Melbourne and meeting my dad there

So here I am having my last paper tomorrow I'm suppose to be studying but my heart and mind no longer here in Toowoomba it is in Melbourne! To make matter worst my dad text me earlier telling me he is bringing 15kg worth of stuff for me. He is meeting me in Melbourne I asked him to bring some clothes for me as I seriously don't have enough clothes here. I have no idea what my mum pass to him to bring over. According to my dad one bag full of clothes! What the hell... wonder what my mum pass to him hmmmm... Anyways I told my dad to just pick a few from the whole lot nice ones can wear ok d la. No need bring the whole lot. He is worried that I will be overweight when I fly back here I am too.

So now brings me to the next question that I have in mind will I be able to do any shopping in Melbourne? Will my dad allow me to shop there? I'm afraid that he will say no cant shop there cos he brought a lot of stuff for me so no need to do shopping. NOOOOOO..... I wanna shop in Melbourne! Definitely will have better choices then here in Toowoomba right. Hmmmm... I think maybe I should ask him not to bring so much will get some in Melbourne? But the question is whether he will agree or not? Will need to wait and see.

As for now I so need to get myself back to reality and that is to study for my last paper tomorrow. So I need to focus and concentrate then after my exam I can tackle this problem and see if I can compromise with my dad!

For now I should be in study mode! Focus, Concentrate is what I need to do now. Ciao for now!

My Brain worked perfectly today!

So today I have my Tourism exam. After a disastrous exam yesterday I was feeling a bit dejected and was feeling that I don't want to study anymore was like what is the point of studying when I put effort in studying and my mind just went blank during exam time. But i forced myself not to think about what had happen and I studied but well not as hard though but I did study. Tourism is like mostly common sense so yea I did slack a bit in my studying and I was very tired brain overworked! I plan to sleep and wake up at 4am but guess what when my alarm rang I continue sleeping till 7am. Then I woke up and studied till 10.40am and decide to sleep again slept till 12pm. So I basically sleep more then study LOL. I think that's the best decision I made cos my brain worked perfectly today. No point over used brain that's what happen yesterday brain obviously too tired and decided to go on strike and bail on me.

I went to uni waited outside the exam room because I was early I think it is good to be there early and not rush and panic to find which room the exam is at. I manage to cram in more studying while waiting for the examiner to tell us it is time to go in. Examiner open the door announces that we can go in Examiner went on bout the rules no talking in the room, no mobile phone allowed, blah, blah, blah... while he is talking there I filled in my details. Then when he finish talking he said perusal starts now. So I flip open the exam questions 7 questions choose 5 and I see that I know how to do Question 1,2,3,5 and 7. Phew... But during the perusal time you can write on the blue paper but I was like blank and I was thinking to myself oh no... not again! I said a little prayer begging God to help me. Then the examiner said you can start writing and just like that my brain started working miraculously. I was relieved and I started writing my answers. Answers flows out beautifully. So of cause I'm very thankful that my brain didn't freeze on me today! Good job brain! hehe...

So after I finish with my last questions did a little check that everything was in order and I started packing my stuff up to leave and by doing that examiner came and collected my paper and off I go. Feeling relieved that I did alright today.

Today is another cold day. The wind was blowing again so it is like super cold walking back home. I walked as fast as possible to reach home. Overall it's a good day today! I am happy that history didn't repeat itself 2day! :)

I have my last paper tomorrow I hope I will do well. Last paper yay! Then freedom! Melbourne here I come! :)

So what Happens after my disasterous Exam?

Regarding my 1st post My Brain screwed it up for me. So after I wrote all that I can I decided to just hand in my exam papers no point sitting there like a fool waiting for time. I pack up my pens, pencil and eraser. Signal to examiner that I'm done. She came and check and collect my papers. Then I left the exam room. I decided to go to toilet as I need to pee. LOL obviously. Feeling that I have then? None what so ever yet. I think I was numb. Then I walked back home was freaking cold... The wind was blowing (It is winter now in Australia in case u were wondering) and I was walking against the wind. I walked as fast as my legs would go. Then I finally reached my Unit. Was relieve to get out the cold . Then I called my mum tell her the bad news.. All is good tho she din scold me o anything. Just hope that my assignment can help me pass this paper.

Then after the call I went up to my room. It was dark the lights were not on and I was like fumbling with the doorknob trying to get the key in the hole and that's where I start losing it. I on the light and put the key in the doorknob open the door more like slam open the door and slam shut the door. It was loud I must apologizes to my housemates but i was frustrated, angry, dissapointed in myself. After I slam shut the door I let out a frustrated groan and I cried more like frustrated cry that my brain went blank I dunno whether I will pass this paper o not. I calm down after awhile. My crying was v short one thank God. I just lay down on my bed and try to calm myself down. Then I showered. Then I'm not sure whether shower helps o not cos it is freaking cold once u step out the shower was like in a race to get clothes on because was soooo cold that I was actually shivering that how cold it was! But I definitely calm down.

When life decided to kick you in the u know where it's time to pick yourself up and move on. I have to not dwell on what happen because no use crying over spilled milk right. I have to focus on my other 2 exams 2moro and friday. God bless me! As the chinese saying goes Jia You meaning work harder or improvement need to be made something like that I think.

I best be on my way to study now. Till then.

My Brain screwed It Up for Me


Today I have my Staffing & Remuneration exam. I went into exam hall was calm and collected. The examiner woman said ok u can start reading and write on the blue paper only. We have 10 mins perusal time to read the questions... so i tackled the multiple choices questions I can do most of it only 1 or 2 questions that I wasn't really sure which one is the correct answer. So all was good. The examiner woman announce can start start writing exam starts now u have 2 hrs. I continued with my multiple choices questions... Went through my answers and I change a few I hope I did the right thing by selecting the correct answer.

Then when i was done with the multiple choices I turn next page essays questions. I read them 5 questions choose 3 to answer. So I was ok do Question 1,2 n 3. So I wrote in my answer sheet Question 1 (a) then the worst thing ever happen my mind just went blank I was like Oh no... Now u decided to bail on me was saying tat to my brain. I sat there lost and like dunno what to do cos my mind is like blank all of a sudden Thinking hard but still nothing was like Oh Shoot... So I just decided to simply write something I dunno what I wrote is correct or not but definitely better then to hand in blank paper right?

I hope tat history doesn't repeat itself 2moro I have my Tourism paper. Brain please dont fail me again!
