Indiana Jones and The Kingom of Crystal Skull
Tuesday 27 May 2008

In saw the trailer for this movie a month ago and it seems to be quite promising, so i decided to catch it when its on the big screen (though i'm not really a big Indiana Jones fan).

Turns out, i'm quite disappointed. Mainly because the plot wasn't really fantastic and the worst thing was its as though there is nothing much they could come up with, they had to get aliens and outer space beings involved. I mean it was so cliche. But, i do like that guy from Transformers. Think he can make it big in Hollywood.

Cake Mood
Thursday 22 May 2008

Been in the mood for making cakes these days. My friend found a recipe for a Raspberry & White Chocolate Tiramisu and we tried it out yesterday at her place. It turn out more like a sponge cake then a tiramisu. But, we got one of the step wrong.
So, i decided to buy the same ingredients and do it again at home and see if it turns out better. Well, the taste is not too bad, but its still doesn't look like a tiramisu.

It has been quite some time since me and dar went out to a nice restaurant to just enjoyed ourselves and have a fantastic dinner. We went to a Jap restaurant that specialize in Yakitori. The food was great and we really enjoyed it very much.

Housewarming
Sunday 18 May 2008

I went over to a friends' place for their house warming on Friday. To make things simpler, they suggested potluck. Since no one was making dessert, i volunteer to make a strawberry cheese cake. See the pic below for the finish product. Hehe.. I was quite proud of it cause everyone really enjoyed it.

Me and dar were one of the earliest to arrive. But it was a good thing cause we get to eat some of the yummy stuff that wasn't available to those who came late. One of our Thia classmate made a really really delicious soup that frankly, you can only get it in restaurant. This girl is from Vietnam and she made the famous Vietnamese spring roll. Yummy!

Our host and one of his tenant were making the famous Taiwanese fried chicken. Though this is like the thousandth time i eat it, it is still as good and tasty.

While the rest were cooking and drinking away, me and dar quickly took a pic together.

These are just some of the people who came.

Ironman
Tuesday 6 May 2008

Its been so long since i last went to the movies, but i'm glad that i caught Ironman today. Typical superhero movie that is based on the Marvel comic with the same name.

You can expect all the explosions and high technological stuff when you catch this movie. What i really like was the bits of humor that was put in it where it lighten things up and make a rather long movie feels quite comfortable to watch.

Great Ocean Road
Sunday 4 May 2008

Yesterday, me and dar accompany his friends to the Great Ocean Road. This will be the second time that I went on the Great Ocean Road since when i was here 3 years back. We would have more fun if the whole driving journey wasn't that long. We had our first stop at Geelong where we had lunch. There were many such painted pillars at the Cunningham Pier and we took pics with a few of them.

There was also this pirate ship that gave an hour cruise to people who would like to tour the place from the sea. Thing was, the kids can actually dress up like pirates and many of them did, which was just so cute.

After lunch we continue our journey to Apollo Bay. On our way there, we saw some wild koalas. Dar was so happy cause this is the first time he see those that are wild and not living in captivity.

It took us another 2 hours before we finally reach the our last destination - 12 Apostles. By the time we reach there, I was so tired since i had spent more than an hour driving in the woods and winding roads.

Another side of the 12 Apostles from the viewing bay.

We manage to catch the sun setting and i think nothing beats seeing this magnificent view there and then.

Photos...
Thursday 1 May 2008

Today, i finally got hold of some very precious photos from my friend. There were many that were taken when we were in our 1st sem here and looking at all the pics only remind me that I have almost spent a year here.

This was our first celebration for completing our first sem. Nice yummy korean and jap food in one of my classmates work place.

We had a bbq session during CNY and this is my friend's apartment - also the organizer for the bbq.

I can't believe it when i saw this pic. This photo was taken after we had a presentation for our finally assignment on the last day in the first sem. Time really flies and now all of us are doing our last sem together.

These are my group mates for the graduating project this semester. Guess i'm gonna miss all of them when i go back.

One of the group photo that we took during the bbq last week.

I just love the Korean food here and this is one of my fav restaurant. We met up to catch up on our hols and gossips!! Hahahaha...

This photo was taken last week when the whole lot of us went to the Lion's Hotel pub for a drink after the bbq session.
