In the past 2 weeks, I have survived 3 days that had temperatures above 40degC. I actually call that an accomplishment seeing that it's been the hottest summer yet, in the past 150years in Victoria. Besides the extreme weather conditions, I've manged to do a couple of things to help me escape from the horrid heat and the perpetual thinking of a certain someone. Yes, I know ):
I've watched Ip Man which I pronounced as "I-P Man" and Gran Torrino with the amusing yet accurate portrayal of Asian gangsters (haha) containing pronfanities that made me laugh with Shai , Underworld 3 Rise of the Lycanswith Olivia , surprisingly romantic (cue. Vampires & Werewolves anyone?) and Slumdog Millionaire with Jacky.
I also tried Yokohama Teppanyaki at Glenny, with my family and I really enjoyed the gorgeous food. Very well prepared, tasted delicious. Speaking of Food, we also tried Man Mo, Docklands for some Cantonese/M'sian cusine. Omg, I loved the steamed fish with soya sauce and the Chilli Prawns. And the views, as usual, being Docklands = pretty.
Oh, and I caught the Australian Open Men's Finals!! With Shai who thankfully asked me along because it was friggin awesome! (: We got ground admission tickets and poked around. Settled underneath the stars and the huge screen watching the match. The atmosphere was tingling with excitement. Nadal is dammn sexy, the only downer is that his english really sucks ): And we had awesome "gourmet" hotdogs, which were sooooo yummy and Movenpick icecream. Yummyyummyumm. Oh, and that was like my virgin tennis match experience. Like a proper one haha and I learnt all Tennis-Lingo and how to count the score and everything. (:
Then we headed back to the car , and the Horrible Incident With Hobbo/Druggie occured. I wrote to all my girls about it. Lesson Learnt : Try to be safe after dark by avoiding dodgey places. Seriously.Fucking lunatic dodgey racist cunt. I detest you!
Met Anne for lunch at AnAn's and I found a LIVE caterpillar in my Viet Spring Rolls. Gross. Never. Eating. There. Again. MochaJoe's after for coffee. Heard about the G Drama and we settled it on the day itself. (: And I cooked ThaiGreenCurry from scratch (:
I also went for my first Fashion Design related course and it was seriously eye-opening. I realised I don't want to be a Fashion Designer as a career. Did you know that , to let alone Break Even within 5 years is considered good, and to make Profit within 5 years is considered awesome? Er yeah. I think if given the chance, I'd go more into the Marketing/Merchandising/Buying aspect of Fashion. Anyways, I've just been working on my mood board for next week and sketching some deisgns for my dream collection. I hope they turn out well (:
I met my cousin Vicky's bestfriend Jacky on Saturday (46.4deg heat) and we faced wave after wave of hot air (think blowdryer on maximum setting continously) while desperately trying to find shade and airconditioned vintage boutiques. Hmmmms, we found the Rose St Market and it was lovely (exxx though) and had lunch at Brunswick, Ice Cream at Freddo's where we listened in to other Singaporeans "complain" about their lives. Haha, Freddo's was a saviour from the heat, seriously. It was a good day and I think Jacky's a really cool guy.
