So at first I thought packing was a pain in the butt but unpacking whiplashes it ten times more.
Have to thank someone for helping the two of us move and haggle as well, without you we would have died. I've been without the internet for a couple of days and I have to say that it has been good? lol seriously. Gonna go buy some furniture laterz. Hope everyones good, especially Brian!
yes, if you've been a smart person, I've been bolding and enlarging certain words to get peoples attention.

Koko Blur
Was a really really bad day for taking pictures. Everything came out blur. So yeah couple of weeks ago Gold, his gf Esther and her friend came to Melbourne to visit. So we met up a couple of times for food.
told you. don't i look like a spaz hahaha
Took them to Koko Black, I prefer Koko Black over the rest. This is their popular tasting plate, I forgot what is it called. Even though they're quite pricey but I prefer the way they balance the taste of their chocolate. It's subtle, not too sweet and bitter that creates a balance which does not put you off.
Bad picture again, Gold got some cone macadamia thing. We got the bread and butter pudding, we saw it on the board and ordered, it costs like $14, so we expected it to be quite huge.. but it turned out to be like the size of 3 1/2 gardenia slices stacked together.. fail.

Antenna
this sticker cracked me up
cute.
Love how people started trashing Iphone4's antenna problems and now they're making money off it as well. But I don't mind, good or bad they're still very entertaining.
Roller Coaster
Went through a typhoon of emotions.
My adverts did well, gumtree especially. Appreciate the help from my friends, one friend posted the ad on a Vietnamese forum and Eunji posted it on Korean website.

Yesterday, morning I finally got the call! CRAZY HAPPY ... I got the place I super wanted. Sent in my bank statements and had to go submit my deposit the next day... anticipating.
Yesterday, 8 people turned up for the inspection. I was so happy that I got someone to rent the place and proceeded to submit the potential tenants to my landlord to pick. He then suddenly reminded me that the person has to pay the amount that my sister and I are currently paying which is for two people, but I advertised the amount for a single person.
The price difference is too big to even consider paying a bit more. $780 and $1040 ?

Obviously I went into stress m.o.d.e. Like if I mess up or if I don't get someone in time? Thoughts like having to end up paying rentals for two properties came in mind. No one would want to look for rooms next week because uni is starting?! It's like if I trip and fall during project move out everyone will say it is my fault. The fracking weight I put on myself.
Yesterday, I couldn't sleep. I ended up sleeping at 6:30am and waking up at 8:00am by phone calls and emails... another batch of potentials. Unsure if anyone would still take the place, I resulted to opt to pay whatever cost on top of the rent that they will pay. I tried persuading people on the phone* and stuff that I really don't wanna list here. Come and ask me.
So another 4 people came today and inspected the place. One guy came, looks kinda cute actually, decided that he wanted the place. I made him give me a deposit incase he backs off. From then on I started rejecting calls... :D
So many people called that I have so many random phone numbers on my phone. This was so hard to summarise...........
SO YEAH, I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY MANAGED TO MOVE!
all I have left to do is start creating accounts for utilities like water, electricity, gas and internet. Buy a modem.
I have 5 DAYS to pack and move. I have to arrange for the movers to come and help me move my stuff. Need
a place to bunk for 3 nights. Need to borrow the vacuum cleaner from my sister ...

Rent Me
So yeah like my previous post I said I wanted to move out, so move out I shall.
Firstly, there are so many hurdles for me to pass. It was a rather risky move but I decided to go ahead with it anyway, tempt fate. There are 4 stages and these 4 stages only guarantee me a 25% possibility to move.
1- achieve mutual agreement with landlord to allow me to break my 12month contract.
2- get people to take over my room.
3- actually find myself a new place. talk about pressure! i can end up on the streets
4- talk some financing agreements with parents. $_$
I'm doing a little bit of everything at the moment and all 4 are lol... what did I get myself into! Oh well too late now. Just need some extra time, patience and perseverance.
So currently, stage 1 is done, I have an ad up on gumtree and have gotten a couple of replies. I'm already expecting 3 people to come over here on Thursday to inspect the place. Hopefully it goes well! And tomorrow I'm going to be apartment hunting, 3 places to be exact. Ahh busy busy.
... still only a 25% success rate.

I can't sleep god knows why. I tried sleeping at 1240am because I was tired and football got boring when Germany started getting goals but ended up waking up again at 4 because Gessie here decided to tell me that the heater was fried. But it's not really her fault, I didn't really get much sleep anyway kept turning.
I miss 2 people but both of them are usually busy :(
I need to and want to sleep.

Lady Gaga Stuff
Wesley kept me in suspense and horror for a few days not knowing what I got from Michael. He kept telling me that it's BIG, it's limited edition and it is kinda gay if he was seen with it. ... not funny Wes.
But lol I was so happy after knowing what it was! A limited edition autographed Lady Gaga picture frame! It comes with the certificate and all. Yes I know the signature is freaking small in the picture, least I havee it wahah
While I'm at it I'll just add this. Went with Kevin and a bunch of his friends to watch Lady Gaga at Rod Laver Arena few months ago when internet was still a pain.
It's everything you would expect I suppose, many outfits = much changing needed = much potong stim because gaga disappear. She has the voice to be so bimbotic.
Gessie pretty? Say no.
I'll see you on the flip side. yowza!

Away
A bit behind with the amount of posts I set out for myself to post. I was away for the past few days, crashed at another friends apartment at the city. I like that way of living but also cannot stand having to sit in a lift with different people everyday? I am that anti-social/people.
Anyways, I was so stressed today that I woke up at 8. I never wake up at 8 o_o but I do hope this will be the start of a domino effect, a life changing event for many early mornings to come. hahaa who am I kidding.
