okay so where were we, oh yes just finished camp. by the time i got home it was about 4ish, so i ahd a shower and got all the dental stuff out of my hair and the bits that were stuck on my skin. annd then i was SO TIRED, but i decided to drag it on till atleast 10pm, otherwise id have waken up to early the next morning and screwed up my body clock even more haha. anyways, managed to drag on till 10pm, and then slept for like ten hours hahaha.
umm monday i had my o-quest at uni :) even though i already know my way around the uwa campus, i decided to go anyways, cos then atleast i could meet some mroe of the dent crew who were starting this year. funny thing was i ended up knowing my unimentor since i know so many second years. and i also knew more about campus than her which was good haha. anyways, after that just came home and chilled out.
okay now we come today which has been my lazy day at home. still recovering from the camp. annd i got a really sore throat which kinda sucks, so ive been eating a spoon of honey basically every two hours. it seems to be better now, but we'll see by tmr morning.
tmr goin to the dental school for orientation! should be really good.
okay thats all for nows.
-peace out xD

ok wow. havent posted for a while. WOOPS.
i think the lack of routine in the holidays screws up the whole posting routine, since each day's plan isnt set in stone like during the uni semester.
anyways, last thursday i made spinach and ricotta canelloni for dinner :)
it was actaully quite tasty hahaa. the only problem was when i was cooking it in the oven, the top 'half' kept dehydrating and i had to take it out and flip each canelloni roll thing. and then i had cheese which was on top, but yeah after several rotations in the oven the cheese was kinda all spread around the outside hahaha. ah well, it tasted really really good so thats good. and its nice to have it made 'fresh' from the freshly chopped spinach and basil and everything. i think that even though in a restaurant they make it fresh, making it yourself adds the special charm to it :D
anyway, on friday at about 11, i left for my med/dent fresher camp. the camp was organised by the med student society at uwa, for all the medical, dental, podiatric medicine and health science freshers. personally i think that the health science kids should have had thier camp with the science kids, because they dont share any units with med/dent/pod, but then because health science is under the same faculty, i guess thats why they were with us. anyhow, there were about 50-60 meds, only 7 dents, and like three pod med kids, and two health science kids. over the camp we did heaps of fun stuff. basic plan was activites during the day, and then partying during the night :D we didnt really sleep much, only about 4 hours over the two nights.. so yeah two hours each night ahahha.
the first day we got there, we did all the 'medical' related stuff, like phlebotomy and then taking dental impressions for dentures and stuff. we also had a chance to get our feet analysed by the higher year pod med students hahaha. then that night, we had a quiz thing, with these reallly hilarioud minigames in between each round. saturday mornign we went to the lake for a swim, and then had this challenge quest thing in the afternoon, where we had to try and complete as many challenges as we could off this long list we were given. we did the quiz night and challenge quest thing in groups which we were put at the start of camp. annd then saturday night we played boat races, and then just partyed the night away.
sunday was mostly uneventful, just lazed the morning awawy socialising with ppl hahaha. no wait, at the end of the camp, when we were taking the group photos, we were all standing/kneeling in position. and then they took a couple of pics, and then on the third pic, all the uni-leaders (who were higher years) threw all this dental-impression-gum-dissolved-in-water all over us. we were all on the ground, and the leaders were all on the platform behind us and yeah, they basically got everyone. it was quite hilarious really, and its gonna make for an AWESOME photo. but getting all the stuff off my tshirt was not very fun at all, spent about half an hour scrubbing away at my tshirt hahaha.
okay i have to go empty the dishwasher so ill be back later to keep posting.

haven't posted in a while...
my apologies for my lack of post-age; havent posted in the last few days. the sole reason behind this is because... *drumroll*... I FINALLY INSTALLED THE SIMS THREE ON MY LAPTOP!!!!!!!!! WOOOOT yeah in case you don't know me, im obsessed with the sims.) anyhow, now that ive got it onto my laptop, ive been playing it pretty much non stop since i got it, which was on saturday night :D so yeah, ive basically not had a life for the past 48 hours =D i couldn'y play it on my old comp, cos my old comp was really really OLD. but now, since my laptop is all hip and stuff, it works great. anywas, my sim is currently an author, cos i read somewhere on the internet, that its an easy way to get rich, and i must agree with the internet ppls! soon ill be living in a mcmansion, and yeah, life will be good :D well, its already good so it can only get better. personally i think the sims three is quite good, in the sense it has the whole neighbourhood involved, not just the one plot. and the graphics are nothing short of ammazing :D hahaha. only problem is there is no PIANO :(. only a guitar, which is still better than nothing.
okay time for dinner, ill continue this post after.

couldn't think of an imaginative post title, so yeah.
today was quite good :D went grocery shopping with mummy in the morning, and then ate lunch and watched the italian job on dvd in the arvo. annnd then i made dinner :) made pad-thai noodles. they turned out reasonable. i think i had too many noodles but :S because i think the noodle to sauce ratio was a bit too large in favour of the noodles.. but ah wells, after a few mouthfulls, it was yummy :D apart from that, just been lazing around at home, relaxing. sometimes its nice just to get away from it all and spend the day at home i think.
annnd yesterday was good as well, went into the city with amali and sonia. we just did some shopping, and ate lunch at this nice little jap/korean cafe place. i needed to get a sleeve for my laptop, so was pleased when i managed to find a suitable one :) annd then i also applied for my proof of age card, which means i can now go out to lounges and bars and stuff without having to take my passport which i don't really like doing :S
hmm what else.. ooo ive been listening to the new Owl City album: 'ocean eyes.' it is TRULY AWESOME! for the uninitiated, owl city is a one-man band thing which is mainly electronica type music. really really good. the songs are all so catchy and happy and nice. and its nice to listen to since its so uplifting and stuff, annnd it doesn't get repetitive or anything since each track is quite different. i recommend: hot air balloon, dental care, on the wing and fireflies. the vid clip for fireflies is also worth watching-extremely imaginative i think. my favourite is probably hot air balloon, since i really like the background glockenspiel(?) beat thing. if you listen to it, you'll see what im talking about :P and just a note, please for the sake of this type of music, use a headset or good quality external speakers when you listen to it, because otherwise you'll miss half the important stuff.
this is hot air balloon.
and since im biased towards dental stuff i just HAD to post dental care :P
okkay i think thats all for nows.
no wait. i wont feel that this post is complete without the fireflies vid clip (:
okay this particular clip is quite good quality, so i recommend putting it full screen, and sitting back into your chair and listening/watching
okay thats all now. haha.
-peace out xD

new pic!!
i decided to update my blog pic with something from my trip, so there we have it, the courtyard of the palais royal musée du louvre =D took the pic on my camera phone, and unfortunately the night time pic-taking isnt as great as the daytime photos, but ah wells. i think its a bit big, but i'll leave it as it for a couple of days, and if its still bugging me, ill upload a smaller version..but i think its just because im used to the small pic which i had previously.
anyhow, today has been uneventful as per usual. just played ddr this morning, aand watched the DaVinci Code, and then made pasta for lunch. actually watching the davinci code was really good cos i could recognize lots of the places in paris where the film was shot. not just the louvre and stuff, but lotsa other places as well =D and then yeah just on msn and editing my blog. when i was uploading the new pic i accidentally converted my template to the old one, so had to re-do the whole thing :S
and yeah i think thats all for now.

long time!
hii ppls! havent been able to post for AGES since ive been away for the last month =D
went to the the uk, and paris :D went mainly to london, but then also went for a bit of a road trip up to nottingham, and sheffield, for a couple of nights at each place. and then was in paris for four nights/three full days.
our road trip around england was really really good! it started snowing in nottingham and by the time we reached sheffield, it was REALLY snowy, about 30cm or so :D
this is nottingham, the morning after. the snow started falling the night before :)
aannd this is sheffield, which was under a good 30cm atleast of snow.
anyways, the snow was good fun, managed to make a snowman :D
anyways, apart from the snow, london was pretty fun as well :D didn't do THAT much sightseeing because i've done most of it on earlier trips :P meeting up with all the family was good fun :D seriously the number of ppl who share my last name on my fb account has gone up a LOT! hahaha. good thing everyone has fb and stuff now, easy to keep in contact xD
annnd then paris was great as expected :P really really good. and the best thing was that the eurostar on the way there didn't break down in the tunnel :P in the week before, the train stopped in the tunnel on two separate trips, cos the snow was causing a malfunction somewhere. but luckily for us, it turned out okay and we got through without any hassle. the north of france was kinda snowy as well, but then considering the WHOLE of the great britain was under a sheet of snow the week before, it would make sense.
anyhow, the weather in paris was really nice, so managed to get alot of sightseeing again. wont upload any pics of anything, cos i was EXTREMELY snap happy in paris, so cbb sorting through all the pics to find the best ones to upload. anyways, over the three four days we were there, we did this: sacré cœur (on the night we came, nice view over the whole of paris during twilight, all the lights and stuff :p), musée du Louvre, champs elysees & arc de triomphe, eiffel tower, musée d'orsay, sacré cœur (again, but this was during the MORNING =D), and then notre dame! so yeah, got lots done :D my fav was definitely the musée du louvre, was really nice architecture, and also the painting and stuff were amazing as well. annnnd i got have a photo with the mona lisa :P haha.
in other news, i got into DENTISTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yay me. im kinda still shocked as to how i managed to pull this one off and get admission :P there were about 200-300ish non-standard applicants this year(or so i was told..), and they only offered ten seats for non-standard applicants, and somehow i managed to get an offer for one of those seats :P so i guess whoever is 'up there' must have done some fine orchestration to get me in :P either that or its just written. lol.
okay i think ill stop rambling on now, hoepfully will be able to get back into the posting habit :D
