Visit to WA parliament House

During our visit to the parliament house of Western Australia last friday... was great fun, had a chance to sit in those rooms where they have their speaking. lol...

We weren't allowed to take pics inside the parliament house; such a pity coz it looks really nice. Really articulately decorated... had about 160 chandeliers in one building (according to the tour guide).

Got a chance to meet with the minister of education and tourism and was fun sharing our experience in Malaysia with them. They were especially impressed that we were educated in chinese in primary school, Malay in secondary school and then english in university.

A great big thanks for the opportunity for this chance, WA~!

(Very apparent, i m at loss of words coz my brain too fried with simulation... lol...)

14th of August and Curtin Open day

14th of August:





Ate dinner at Hanami... Liked their whole concept of Japanese culture with the bird origami serviette, the staff wearing their traditional Japanese attire (no, it is not kimono, not sure what they're called) and the bamboo shoots at the front. :)





Ordered Assorted tempura coz it was a long time since i ate any fried food. But i think it was due to that same fact that although the tempura was really delicious, i couldn't finish it as I couldn't stand too much oily food. But the sashimi ordered by Shu Qing and Fish was really nice and fresh.

16 of August 2009: Curtin Open Day

Yea~! Yea~! Had many things going on, too bad it was raining as well on that day. They have those free hugs for grab (lol...), free ice cream (using liquid nitrogen to make de... dun dare to try... lol), free lip balm (made by the pharmacy students~!), petting zoo ( The white goose, turkey and chicken is so well fed!! super fat!!!), bouncy castle, free helicopter ride, belly dancing, face painting and etc. The best part was you could go around and visit those buildings u never get to enter before (like pharmacy labs, nursery and midwifery centres) and see what they do behind closed doors. A very good eye opener, except most of the time I had to spent in the international office.

At the end of the day, managed to snuggle down for my late lunch at Makan-makan, Vic park and have their sambal fried rice. Quite nice but then as always, Malaysia food should be eaten in malaysia for maximum satisfaction~! lol... But the spicyness complements the cold weather

My very own notice board

I super love the breadou, wanted to buy that in melbourne during semester break but couldn't find it. I am so blessed that my housemate bought each of us one during her trip back to Singapore. I had also stuck some of my collections on, my earring collection, my collection of restaurant napkins (hahaha... ) and postcards.

Our notice board at the common area

Today, my housemate had a craving for scone. so she bought the flour mix for scones. But turns out we all decided that the typical scones isn't good enough for us, we came out with a lot of our designs. lol...
