We have officially moved into our new house on 29 Oct, although not everything's in yet, like the bed frames, toy boys, mattresses and internet. The paving around the house has also yet to be done. But everything else is cleaned and stuff unpacked.

There was sooo much to do the past week. I'm glad amanda and I took a week off from work to help around the house. We not only have to clean the new house but the old place as well. It was hectic and we were so tired from waking up at like 6 plus everyday and helping out. Sharon had to study for her TEE exams so she cldnt help much. Meals were always take-away fast food or maggi noodle. It was pathetic. So yes, i agree with michelle home cooked food is always the BEST! =D cos i've been having maggi noodles the past 3 days =(

Anyway, i'm finally able to take a breather. Starting work again at nando's tmr. So today, i'm over at my uncle's place, finally able to use internet again after 3 days. Gotta start searching for accounting jobs. Helping my mum scout for temporary USB internet for our house in the meantime.

At the moment, I haven heard any good news from the companies hiring. Haven even gone for any interviews. I try not to to think of my situation in a bad light. Maybe there was a reason as to why I havent gotten an accounting job as yet. Maybe the LORD wanted me to help my mum out, settle into our new place b4 getting me a job. Hopefully, i'd be able to find one soon..

Yesterday was the most exciting halloween we ever had. Mum bought 4 packets of sweets and we all thought it was TOO much. cos the first yr, we only had 3 kids visiting our old place. and none last yr. But we were wrong. Kids were swarming to out new house! Amanda made a halloween box and placed it outside our garage to attract kids to our place. There were altogether 4 knocks on our doors. The first was a group of 7 kids. Woa big shock! and were were wondering if we have enough sweets to last thru the night. Some were wearing cool scary masks. others wore fairy costumes. I liked the girl whose face was 'dripping' with 'blood'. Think she coloured her face with makeup or sth. hehe =) There was a dracula.. bla bla.

The kids LOVED our sweets. We got halloween sweets - brain popping sweet powder and eyeball marshmallows. By the 3rd visit, we were almost running out of sweets that we had to give out our small potato chip packets!! HAHA! The entire thing lasted for only 1/2 hr. from 7.00-7.30pm. and there were sooo many kids alr. lol.. Will post those pictures up another day.. heard sharon's bf family gave out $2 coins. cos they didnt prepare any sweets. hahaha funny..

ok more of me nxt time! once the house looks all ready, i'll take pictures and post it online! As for the house address, i'll email everyone my new address once the mailbox arrives. Sayonara and take care~

Just b4 my dad and grandma flew back to spore, we went as a family to the Perth Royal Show held once every yr for a week. Set off at 9.30am and only got back at 10.30pm..

Cute chicken with feathers on its feet! =)

Where art thou head? HEHE..

My favourite pigeon! BOOM baby! ;p

What i call a helicopter pigeon.. =p

Sitting down and having packed sandwiches while watching the dog show competition..

Pink sheep with red boy.. SUPER MATCHING!

Meditating cat wif pigeon sitting comfortably on it.. =)

Caught bunnies trying to mate in the act. HAHA!

Ice lobster sculpture..

Yummy fresh oysters! wif free dip sauces of ur choice. $1 for one!

Mum bought EXTREME chilli hanaberra sauce... HOT~!

Sharon and amanda bought their showbags...

Fairies..

Pretty display flowers. Wanted to get one for my new room but it costs $50 each! OUCH.. =(

Bull competition

The 3 of us took this exhilarating ride!

U guessed it right! Frankenstein and his wife..

We saw soo many beautiful cakes like this and mini cupcakes on display behind a glass.. so tempting to just grab them and eat! If it looks GREAT, it shld taste GREAT too right?

Amanda, sharon and I got henna tattoos... i also bought a beach sarong dress but didnt noe how to wear it when i gt home, so cant wear it to take pic for u guys to see hehe.. i'm such a loser.. buy already but dunno how to wear..

Musical moving cartoon figures..

At abt 7.30pm, we sat down on the soft grass in the main arena to watch kids as young as 8 yrs old ride their mini bikes on an elevated plank and zoom out into the air, doing their stunts. So scary!!!

After that, we were given glow sticks for the fireworks. As usual, the fireworks NEVER fail to dazzle me =) Too bad i cldnt take videos or pics of them cos sharon's camera failed us halfway throughout the day =( It was also papa and grandma's first time watching fireworks so close for the 1st time! Really an eye-opener, i must say. The fireworks blew in our direction and we cld see it just directly ABOVE us.. not to mention the ashes also came down on us. HAHA..

When the show ended, we then packed up and headed home. Took the 1 hr journey home by train. Everyone was so exhausted from the day's activity but it was all WORTH it =)

Happy Bdae...

Time is slowly trickling by.. and i wish it goes by faster. For many of u who r still wondering, i haven gotten a job. I watch with mixed feelings as each one of my friends/acquaintances accept a job. I'm happy for them but down for myself. i dun understand how they can find one with the least amt of effort and I, on the other hand, dun even get a call for an interview when i put in the most effort lookin for one =( How do i lose out to them? I've got gd results and past working experience. i dun understand why.. ='(

It feels like it was just yesterday i've changed my mindset abt stayin in Australia for gd. to be wif my family. but its a lot harder than i tot. Suddenly, i'm back in the middle of the line but with each passing day, i'm slowly inching towards my home country.

Moving house end Oct. Took leave from nando's in the last wk of Oct to help out with the cleaning and moving.

*sighs.. this yr has got to be the worst trial period of my life. haa! i was right. i am emo today..
