Wednesday
$2.50 moochi! The line was quite insane though. I couldn't even fit it in one photo. lol.
The wait was an hour long! But it's worth it, i think. I mean, retail price was like $6, so tis more than half price! I really like froyo.
But it was super cold to eat, cause it was rainy and windy :(
I actually wanted to get the coconut and green tea flavour, but they had run out when i got to the line, so i changed to biscotti and watermelon instead. :p safe choice aha.
---
Also, i showed this illustration someone sent on me snapchat to my sister, and she laughed cause it's so legit.
My sister dubbed it "100% accurate." Which is slightly depressing. But kinda true. I have a very empty, vague kinda grumpy appearance when I'm just woken up or still super sleepy. :(

Thursday
Total leaf carpet at UNSW today. It was windy and leaves were everywhere! Though i kinda like that about autumn. But i hate the rain.
fallen brown carpet
not quite a cracking sound
because of the rain.
I kinda made this reverse gif cause i was bored while waiting for my tute. I just liked the leaves looking like they're magnetised to my foot. ehehehe.
I'm really silly.

Went out with the girls for dinner! was so excited about this like ALL DAY aha.
I think i ate too much :/ too much food everywhere!
But then i only ate plain bread... no food at the house right now, i'm just too poor... lol.
But it was really cool, cause i wanted KFC before i went, but i didn't want to buy it cause i have no money... sniff... but we got fried chicken anyway, so i sated my friend chicken desires :) And it was nice! Like kinda spicy, like the way my grandma makes it. Probably because all malaysians season it the same or something, i dunno.
I think Laksa Fried Chicken is the best. It actually tastes amazing :D
Also, Roti Dessert :) I love roti. I noted they added sugar to theirs to make it sweeter and more carmelised on the outside. Probably to help keep it in the cone shape, instead of being all flaky and hot and collasping on itself, yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
food of my childhood lol.
There's a video of my sister's like 3rd birthday party, where my dad comes to film me, and he catches me on film with a spring roll in my mouth, fried chicken drumstick in one hand and a roti in the other. And all i do is smile sheepishly and the camera and leg it.
Seriously, my grandma makes the best foods. I always eat too much when she cooks.
I was really happy to see the girls today :) long talk ahaha :)
ok time to stop procrastinating and do tute work :p
We found a bunch of our old home videos the other day, ones from when I was just a baby and older, like 6 and so.
They made me think about when I was much. much younger. and all these werid random memories i have of when I was just a kid. Isn't it weird how some things can really stand out and others just sort of fade into history? There are some moments I can recall with total clarity and and others I can't remember at all, even when people tell me about it. I'm just like "no, I swear that never happenned to me, you must have the wrong person."
Surprisingly there were some moments that no one in our family had seen before, because we left the camera on the tripod and were doing other things. Like there was this video where my brother was just a baby, and he was trying to break out. My mum catches him, and she pushes the fence back in place and moves a chair on wheels to secure it. Suddenly, the keyboard on the chair falls and the keys come off, so she rushes over to pick it up. And then my brother, while she's picking the keys and putting them back together, pushes the chair and pulls the gate. He then looks at my mum, makes a noise, and realises she isn't turning around. He squeezes past the gate and makes a run for freedom. Luckily my mum notices and jumps the fence, grabs him and then stands in front of the gate for the rest of the day.
My brother is really cheeky.
There also was this video of my kindy christmas performance. I distinctly recall i was asked by my teacher to play Mary, so I was the only kid in the grade to get a solo.
I think I got the performing bug since then :p
But it was a really big moment, when she asked me. I still remember it haha.
Do you guys have any significant moments from your childhood you can really distinctly remember? Most of mine are weird moments, like when i was 4 and i told my mum i really liked celery when i saw it at the shops, so she bought it for me and i hated it. haha.

We got a bunch of vinyl records the other day, and my dad bought a vinyl/cassette to mp3 convertor online for $100. It's really cool, we've been playing the records all day. :) Currently my sister is in love with Andy Williams. I have to say, his voice is super seductive. The lyrics are all really beautiful :)You might have heard of him anyway. Moon River is his most famous song, but i personally love "It might as well be spring." But i can't find it on the internet at all.
Which is slightly annoying.
So I can only link Moon River, which is nice, but "It might as well be spring" is beautiful.
Hrm I can find another version though. But his version is the best.
(just searched youtube and couldn't find another male singer version. Female version is nice, but it doesn't have the same 'melt' atmosphere. There is this modern jazz version i found here, which is almost as good, in a completely different way. It starts at about 1 minute in.)
I think i love the lyrics the most.
We actually went out and bought his "greatest all times hits" at JB on sunday when we went shopping, just because it was on sale. We were listening to it in the car.
Listening to them, I really kind of wish I was born in the 1950s, so I could be a teen in the 1960s. :)
I was born in the wrong generation.
Then I could be one of those crazy 60's rockers in the a-line dresses doing crazy twist dances like in those Cliff Richard and Elvis movies I watched as a kid.

Did you ever want to be a fire fighter? - Nope. Although I agree, if i was a boy, i might have seen the attraction of it. But i always like fire, even as a kid. I'm a bit of a pyro.
