WEEK of Unforgettable Memories

This week, I call it as my pre-easter break. HA!

I was pretty lucky that my last week before the break had no assignments due while most of the people here in my dorm had their sleepless nights for essays to finish, group works to finalize, and exams to pass or fail.


i started my monday night/ tuesday early morning to surprise Sy, one of my good friends here in the house, because it was her birthday. she didnt know anything until we actually screamed, SURPRISE!!!!!!! ellen and kjersti even sang there norwegian happy birthday song (and its not the happy birthday tune with norwegian language in it, okay) and we all wore red lipstick and kissed her face. it was pretty awesome and funny.

tuesday night, went out with Joanna and her unimates friends to play some trivia night at the Rose Hotel. we lost, but we weren't last. it was pretty hard knowing that we were all international students, girls, and late for the game, so yeah, sports questions failed us, any australian questions failed us, and music questions were too... australian to, so yeah. scoring a 62 over a 100 was good enough.

wednesday was reading day, BUT i got a package. so that was good.

thursday night was the VetSoc Cruise party. i brought my friend Dilshan with me, together with the girls (Annette, Yuka, Sy, Ellen, Kjersti, and Laura). half of us were so excited because it was our very first cruise party. yeah, we were in a bigass boat drinking and partying. i finally saw the opera house (after 2.5 months here) and went under the harbour bridge, and just really, the view was amazing. I even saw the skyscrapers all lit, it was BEAUTIFUL!

and at the end of it all, we ate tons of pizza, drank 4 glasses of wine, my friend Dilshan and Laura hooked up, Kjersti met this random guy, Sy got drunk, Yuka almost lost her shoes, Annette made out with Kjersti, Ellen made out with Laura, saw a random guy only wearing a SOCK on his penis, and I... well, I was AMAZED. SERIOUSLY. haha

Friday, woke up really early to go the Easter show with Mish, Tom and her family.

I wanted to ride the crazy, stomach churning, rides that they had, but it was too expensive. But, i did however, see a lot of those country stuff that i would usually see in ESPN. like those log competitions... YEAH i did! one team had an 11-second delay and still won the challenge. it was so fast!

then i also saw those cake decorations thing... they were good. one actually looked like REAL flowers. there was also that creepy baby cake and that cool pho- bowled noodle cake. i also saw a frowning porcelain baby doll and a dool with a gender.

The easter show was great because you can do and see so much. Mish said it was a cross between country festival and an amusement park. it was a good way of describing it. i ate tons of free food from the food area. saw a lot of different artworks from wood crafts to oil painting. There were also animal farms from chickens to horses, but i only saw the horses and the dogs, cause i'll just die if i inhale those fleece. there was also a tent for women's fashion, which i failed to enter because i was running out of time. But yeah, its worth going to.

Oh! and the most amazing part of this day was i got to eat fairy floss (cotton candy) and bought the most amazing hat ever!
