It's Monday!! Argh... went for Economics tute today. Argh... i just don't know who can enjoy a module as such when it's so hard to understand what the lecturer and tutor are trying to say!!! Linda *groans* I'm already exhausted and yes... my brains already feels squished... i need a break. Linda SCREAMS. "AHhHHhhhh!!!!!"
Actually i do understand abit. But abit is not enough!!! Haiz... i thought today will not have a quiz, but once again, surprise surprise... quiz!! GrrRRr... kinda expected it actually... just hoping and wishing... it's just me and my wishful thinking.
It's so frustrating... because you keep trying and it keeps coming to knots.
I just want to complain today... so if you're reading this.. sorry you have to see me complain.
But kinda happy because i had like a free coffee! Some coffee truck came by and pple were giving out free bottles of BREAK coffee. I always thought that they would taste blend but hmm... it was actually quite yummy. It was what i needed in the morning really... coz i was already quite tired after the quiz.
How to survive bsf tonight? Gosh... i ought to pray and trust more. Oke.. i'm gonna shut up already and go take a walk.

What Market?!
This morning market was so hillarious. I thought my friend was going to WEstEnd Market... i had no idea that the market they were going to all this while was the BrISBanE MarkET. It's like a whole lot smaller and the food items are neither fresh nor cheap. So little to choose from! And i brought with me afew empty bags. Anyway, did buy quite alot of stuff... but still feel that i could have gotten better quality at the same kind of price at the WestEnd Market!
Anyway, it's good that i know so that i can now direct them to another market where they can get better food stuff!
After doing the usual marketing and stuff, decided to go with the group to eat. Since we were at westend market we went to a nearby chinese and vietnemese stall to eat. Eat until i was really full. My other friend wanted to see me at my peak (meaning i can alot alot). Haha... then we ordered another side dish. It was yummy... rice paper dish. my friend never eat before, so introduce them sth new. Glad that they enjoyed it. I quite like it too... but alittle pricey. Really happy to go out with this group of friends because i feel like i've been neglecting them for quite some time. Some of them wil be graduating this semester.. so like in about 2 months time. Will miss them. Perhaps i should spend more time with them. They are a really wonderful bunch and i just thank the Lord for me knowing them and a chance for me to bring them to church. I can always count on them for support and help if i run into problems with my ex housemate coz we were living at close proximity.
was abit tired when i got back. Yup have to store the meat properly into the fridge and all. Had a really short nap (30mins?) and i had to rush for unicell. Handed up my drawings for the church logo. Glad that some of them really liked it... it seemed like the little comments that i was writing amused them more then the drawing itself. *giggles*
Oke... now i really have to go to sleep... i wouldn't want myself to be falling asleep during the sermon. Must give God the respect that he deserves and my fullest attention.
good night!

SLowly FadiNg into the BacKGrouNd... ...
It's 9:33am! Washed up and got ready to go to the market. I know its very late to go to the market but like my friends who are driving me there don't want to get up so early. It's a Saturday and i don't really blame them.
Yesterday i didn't take any pictures. Nothing to take also... but had alot of fun. I'm going to draw to a conclusion that people will start doing the strangest things and come up with the most "out of this world" ideas when its late in the night. I won't elaborate further cause it will ruin the originality and authenticity or the game.
Really tired when i got back home so i just got to sleep. Which is good, very good.
And yes, i would like to fade into the background... think my aura is abit overwhealming. I'll try to slowly quieten down, and hopefully take the back seat. Why? Well, i feel that its good to have more time to ponder and spend time doing things that i cannot do when there are others around.
Like maybe more quiet time, drawing, cleaning up... the more mundane stuff that i tend to put off even when i have the time. Thinking if i should take pictures at the market anot. Hmmm.. maybe next time, not this time round. I need to restock on stuff like vegetables, meat, fruits, lemon and garlic. I think i have not been eating very well, as in I can actually improve my meals, make it more nutritious. I should spend more time cooking as well.

Dancing to the weekend
woohoo!! It's a Friday, and i'm going out later to meet some friends. So excited because the weekends are finally here... after a long and tiring week. *phew* I can get my life in order... my life last week was upside down... with my mind all over the place (physically and mentally) and it definitely didn't help with my abnormal sleeping patterns.
Will try to take some pictures... abit sleepy already haha *yawn*
Oh yar... today i almost missed my 8am lecture... was late and i couldn't catch what she was saying... abit lost becoz the figures was flying all over the place! Alot of revision and work have to be done and i need sleep too.
Craving for some desert to eat.. hmm looks like i have to bake chocolate cake again!! Haha.. it's time to put on somemore weight! Pimples are getting lighter which is good. I miss those days where i have gd complexion.
ANyway, some things which i am working on every now and then: church logo and camp retreat shirt. I have got some ideas which i can play with. It's funny how these inspiration come to you. For me, it's during lecture. Like when i'm finding it hard to concentrate, i doodle around with shapes while listening at the same time. At least it keeps me away from falling asleep. So i draw shapes, curves, dots and out of it i see a picture. That's how my pictures turn out abstract, because they are formed from basic shapes.

Next page...
Next page. Not a new chapter yet, but next page. Finally i can say the mid exams are over... BUT BUT... there's quizzes to do and revisions to do. On top of that, work, and other nitty gritty tasks to do.
And... also gotta remember my prayer group. I'm not the only one who needs help. we all need to survive. Yup, and to remember what is my real purpose here... It's funny how studies were my first and foremost important mission when i came here, but now i see a different point of view of life. Maybe its the many events that i've been through, what i know and what i experience. So, everything is not certain in this world, but one for certain is that there is only one God who is real and true in my life. Still remember one of my friend who led in worship last week Saturday. Friendships may fail, relationships that we have built might turn sour, but the one whom we can always depend on is Him.
I'm so happy... last night i know i slept for 7 hours WITHOUT DISTRUPTIONS... and it was SO EASY to sleep... Sleeping Beauty is BACK! Yea... its really good to rest... my mind dun feel so stretched.
Tml is Friday! Woopie doo... Got time for revision and other stuff... Tml will be doing another assignment. Hopefully all of us will be REALLY productive and complete it tomorrow... I need to start unloading some assignments if not they'll keep building.
Just finish reading the Australian newspaper. Some interesting articles caught my eye. They always got controversial issues. Like lack of skilled workers and yet limiting the number of immigrants who wants to come here and work because they are afraid that they will take the jobs away from them. A familiar problem which many other countries face.
Gonna sign off soon to do some revision and preperations for tomorrow's lesson. *sMiLes* bye bye!

Everything's Gonna be Alright
YEs... i slept well last night! It's been such a long busy and tiring week for me. Had been having sleepless nights(3 nights in a row)... think i suffered from insomia or sth... i'm not stressed out... i dunno why. I just can't seem to put my brain to sleep. Tried counting sheeps, tried reading textbok... but it just doesn't put me to sleep.
Some interesting reasons that my friends gave...:
1) You're subconsciously you're stressed out.
2) Probably Miss home
3) You're thinking of a boy
Haha... i've tried so many things... including exercise! But nothing seemed to work. So thankful for the prayers for me to sleep. It's absolutely madness to not sleep for 3 nights. You can physically feel a certain point in your brain that is stretching and releasing again and again and you can feel a burning sensation in that part of your brain. YAr.. i didn't tell anyone about how it feels... will probably freak pple out.
I don't want to see doctor... just don't like the idea of taking medicine pills. I hope i will be able to continue to sleep well. It's absolutely neccessary given my hectic normally bz week.
"Father Father... i need your strength to carry on... please carry me on this journey."
Some interesting stuff which happened this week. Someone in my apartment got really pissed the other day. It was late in the night when he started yelling "F**K the FRENCH, F*** all the Aborigines." And this was repeated like a couple number of times. A fight was going to happen, but thankfully it didn't. There are a number of french people and aborigines living around the area, but i'm just happy nothing bloody happened.
My thoughts for that person... "You really have to undergo some anger management!"
I think i'm suffocating unknowingly. The other day i went for some committee meeting. THere was NUMEROUS task stated our for my role... AHHHH... so much to do!!!! helping out in the program is no easy task... i didn't read the fine lines that comes along with the task! I dunno if i can handle the task because i just do all i can do in a day... whatever i cannot finish is being brought forward to the next. So... i just hope that i can get everything done in time... ...
Really need some support... at times think i'm taking in more than what i can digest.
Sometimes feeling abit weak and wanna cry... but its just a waste of energy to cry... so i try to laugh abit harder... (sometimes..the happiest person is the saddest person in the world)
I try not to think about what i have to do in a week.. coz it feels alittle overwhealming and often it would lead up to me feeling all weak and that's all self pity. Must read my encouraging board (That's my personal board where i pin up alot of personal stuff and some of which are to encourage myself especially when i'm losing focus.) Think i'm kinda losing focus really... time to seriously sit and pray about it.
Signing Off!
