I love kangaroo meat, it taste sweet or may be cause it was marinated m-kay.

24th April 2009
Had kangaroo meat for the third time. This time was roast kangaroo together with Davyn Mather cause we share to pay the meat price. As usual my neighbour Debbie Dong, starts calling me "kangaroo eater" AGAIN, not that i'm not m-kay, lol. She's cruel man, more cruel then me eating it, especially the descriptive blood coming out from the uncook meat m-kay. I think she has some prejudice about eating kangaroo m-kay. Alah they are good for the eater and aslo good for the environment, more healthy than beef and lamb too m-kay. Haha. It's real funny to see her, Veenah and Zoe talk about it when I'm eating kangaroo meat. Walauh can see weird expression man.lol. M-kay!
Mr. Mackey from South park : Drugs is bad, m-kay. Don't take drugs, m-kay.

Cold Rock Ice-cream

Two (2) sachets of Lipton Black Tea, boosted up my senses. Collecting articles to begin with.
Unit: Commercial Banking & Finance
Topic: Deposits insurance in Australian Banks
Percentage complete: 0%



wakaka. not going for Boat Cruise.
Reasons:
(a) Too expensive ($AUD 60 per person)
(b) Too near assignment due date- no matter how early I start the assignment, I'll rush in the end. It always happens.
(c) Save money for the ultimate Howitt Hall Ball -i.e. Gaudy Night





Didn't do much lately. Just hang around the room and download movies and television series from DC++ (The programme that don't exist). Reason for such claim is because it's illegal to download using this way. Went to Pinewood with Kane Tan, Chieh Ai and Zax Teh to get some ice-cream from Cold Rock. The specialty of Cold Rock is that, there are unique steps to get a Cold Rock ice-cream:

(a) Select size of cup or cone
(b) Select flavour of ice-cream (2-3 choices depending on size of cup or cone)
(c) Select toppings (Mars, Sneakers, M&Ms, Skittles, etc)
(d) The worker will mix all of them on a flat cold rock. It's no ordinary mixing method.
(e) Mix ice-cream served.
.
.
.
(f) Pay money


DON'T forget need to pay money. It cost me $AUD 5.80 ($AUD 5 for the regular size cup and 80 cents for a 45g Sneakers bar)


The next time I go, I'll double up my toppings to include at least 2-3 toppings. "Just to see what I'll get" (Russel Peter, 2007). My flavours just now were Bubblegum, Ferrero Roche and Mudcake...something. The mixture didn't give me the tingling feeling. Maybe cause wrong combination of flavours. Pfftt bubblegum with two (2) chocolate flavours. What the heck! haha.




I'm cruel ain't I to show the ice-cream? Wakakakaka!!! Alright the pic was taken half way I was eating it.

Read something about Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWF) articles in Financial Times while searching for articles. Interesting it is-sounded like Yoda. Will write something about it when I'm free. Brief intro: SWF are funds obtain by issuing shares/ownership to international wealthy corporation or overseas government investment wings. (e.g. Government of Singapore Investment Corporation and China Investment Corporation).

Woke up at 4am, meet them at Richardson Hall at 6am. Then introduced ourselves to Aun Shiang because she'll be fetching us there. Yes she has a car. And we get to know a new friend. So she make two (2) trips to Clayton Train Station. Me, Lloyd Chee, David Koay, Pauh Seng Wah, and Kirin took the first train and in the end somehow we met the rest in the same train again on the way to Melbourne Central Station. Weird I know. Hang around the Melbourne City waiting for the bus. We're following a tour to the Great Ocean Road.

The sign board even tells you the time it takes from here to the nearest toilet (i.e. 2 minutes)



Melbourne Tram.












Fucking Ignatius hand. Focus the picture nice already, he swayed his hand in randomly. Wtf.



Check it out! Melbourne got teach Wing Chun Kung Fu man. Ip Man, haha.


On the way in the bus, travelling along the Great Ocean Road.
Below pictures are along the coast while we're travelling in the bus. Waves were pretty strong.









Bus made a side stop, to catch a glimpse of koala bear. Nothing facinating. Top picture: one is sitting on top of the tree- left side. Look carefully.



This one was sleeping on a short tree. So short that we can even touch it. It was sleeping so we didn't dare to touch it, later it get wild.
