My part-time job
10.24.08 (5:10 pm) [edit]Haha!! Living alone (without parents) is really an experience we all will but should get while we are still young. Ever since I've been in Australia to study, I've done some really interesting things. I've become a cook, a house cleaner, a market man, a gas tank delivery man, a simple car mechanic, an electrical technician, a "pet-sitter", and recently a plumber. HAHA all the technical stuffs I've done, I wonder why I did not study some technical or mechanical stuff when I was in Poly..
Oh well, haha done all that is needed to be repaired, its time to get back to my books, exams in 2wks time =S
The time of the Semester
10.19.08 (11:47 pm) [edit]It's the time of the semester, EXAM time!! I've got about 2wks before the start of my 1st two major papers (Business policy & strategy and Writing) on the 4th Nov. Trying to start early this time, hopefully I can do well and score since I believe I'd screwed up my assignments. After two papers, I will be having another 1 on the 10th and last 1 on the 11th.
And the time of the semester end again, I will be heading back to SG for my VA and for 99% I'm posted back to ship so god help me haha =S Well it's a gd thing, at least I'm going back to where I belong haha where there are nice food and friends and family and salary hehe =) Ok then, back to the books...
Same old me...
10.09.08 (3:58 am) [edit]It’s 0235hrs and I'm still sitting here doing nothing. Past few days were hell. I’d got a presentation on Monday, 2,500 words report due on Tuesday, would have to submit another 2,500 words essay this coming Friday, and another 1,000 words news review next Tuesday. Handing in assignments is common in any academic institution, so what seem to be the problem? The problem is every assignment I had since the start of university was that I would only start doing it at most 2-3 days ahead and start typing it out 24hrs before due date. May be I was over confident when I got high grades for assignments so I started doing the same for each other assignment.
People started the 2,500 words report about 2-3 weeks ago and some had even written more than the required maximum. For me, I did not even reach 2,500 words, I only had 2,000 words. Another previous assignment which I had to write 2,000 words and I only had 1,500 words. I hope I can reach my 2,500 words for this upcoming essay, and I pray the previous few I would at least pass them. Initially I wanted to start all my assignments early this semester but I just did not managed to do it and I don’t know why.
Alright, I guess it’s the same as old me, always getting things done last min and studying for exams last min etc., things would not change unless I try and even if I try, it would not mean that I would succeed, but still I must try.
The shag day...
10.05.08 (8:32 pm) [edit]I was doing my assignment yesterday night till about 4am in the morning then I slept for 5hrs and went to library in the morning to get my books for the assignment... As planned, we cleaned up the house the whole day and I'm so tired now... My assignment is due on Tues and I have a presentation tml in the evening... I guess I wun be able to do much.. still got to go to sch tml for a whole day... I wonder if I can finish it in time...
Australia Zoo
10.02.08 (12:12 am) [edit]Went to Australia Zoo on the 29 Sep 08, overall it was alright...
The first animal we saw even before we entered the Zoo!!
The big Croc!!!
Baobei gave up her chance to feed the elephant to this child, but the elephant don't want to eat...
Baby croc!!!
The Crocoseum... was expecting an animal show... but we had this instead...
Like it was meant for kids... they invited all the kids to dance together around the bottom of the stage...
There... my "live monkey" show... After 1hr, the real animals came on... but they just introduced them like some introduction tape...
The croc trick..
Really a place for kids to visit...
I'll pass on some animals... but this is the Tasmanian Devil... I seen this when I was on holiday during my end of Olvls trip with my father and uncle's family
A big wombat... Baobei liked it so much...
Hi there...
Lazy... eat and sleep only...
Another 1... they only wait for food to go to them...
Swimming tiger cubs... there were 3 of them and they were all just playing around the pool with the keepers..
The afternoon elephant feeding session, we went to que like 15mins early but when it was starting Baobei was feeling weak and fainting so we end up walking away and sat down somewhere and took the shutter tram back to the entrance.. Baobei was so sad...
At the entrance was the tribute to Steve Irwin and his family...
This was also at the entrance haha, it was filled with kids when we were there in the morning so we decided to take a photo of it when we were leaving...
And Baobei wanted to take the picture of this echidna even though she was not feeling well... haha so in the end we did see almost all the animals we wanted to see..
The last picture before we left...
Alright, there were the usual animals... let's just list the animals we did not see... There was no giraffe, no monkeys, no antelopes, no bears, no polar bears, no penguins, no eagles, no cheetah, no jaguars, no lions, no spiders, no ostrich, and no... I guess that’s all I can think of... Baobei thinks Singapore’s Zoo has much more variety and I agree...
