THE BUSY
WORKING CLASS WOMAN…
That
pretty much explains my lack of time to blog. Now that I more or less have a
permanent shift at work, I hardly have time for anything except on weekends.
It’s amazing how I always look forward to the weekends, and hearing myself
exclaim TGIF!! (Thank God For Fridays!!).
Well, Hey.. .at least the money coming in is GOOD!
*grin grin*
Anyway…
work’s been great and I am ABSOLUTELY loving it. My colleagues are such nice
people and so easy to work with. Not to forget the staff discounts that I get
for things I buy from the chemist, and one free Maybelline product every
month!! It definitely is a huge learning experience and training ground for me
to set foot into the pharmaceutical industry. (Also putting my pharmacology
knowledge from 3rd yr uni into practice… at last!)
Besides
work... i've also started gym at the Adelaide Aquatic Centre. The place is
pretty good i must admit. Being a member, not only do i get to utilise the gym,
but also the pools, sauna, steam room, spas and lockers for hire are only a
mere 20 cents. Now i am on a mission towards my 'bikini body' for next
summer... *laughs*
So... what have i been up to?
I have converted....
 
THIS......
.......TO THIS
REASON BEING:
I
was issued a A$300 fine for driving on (apparently) an "inappropriate
driving license"
I wrote a dispute letter to the Police department demanding them to either
reduce or waive the fine.
And so... i received a letter from them saying i DO NOT have to pay the fine
until further notice.
It has
been 3 months since... and i believe they have waived it off . *smiles*
THE ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
Jayesh and I celebrated our one year anni on the 17th March 2007. We finally hit the so called
"one-year curse" mark. A time frame some people believe that the risk
of breaking up within the first year is higher than years that follow.
It was just a simple celebration. I baked a chocolate mud cake and
self-decorated it. We had a couple of glasses of wine each (which we got from
Barossa and was always saving it for a special occassion) and cuddled up on the
couch watching tv.
Jay got me a really funky pair of Oakleys sunnies as an anni gift ... and it
was a cool PINK in colour!!!
Our anniversary cake and wine...
My PINK OAKLEYS..!!
THE NOTHING BETTER TO DO PEOPLE
It started off one night when Kat, Amrit, Jay and I decided to order in some
pizzas and play some hands of Ginrami at their place.
And so everything was going according to plan... except that the card games
soon lead on to a couple of rounds of Monopoly, a few rounds of pool, and MORE
GINRAMI!
The next thing we realize... it was 4am
in the morning. We decided no point going to bed cuz we just won't get up for
till the next night.
So, we stayed up and somebody came up with this brilliant plan that we go check
out Mount Lofty... maybe can see sunrise (cuz i said Glenelg cannot see... it's
in the west) at bloody 6am IN THE MORNING!!
Stupidly... we all took a drive up Mount
Lofty in Amrit's rented Kia Rio.
The windscreen was fogging up... but nobody took any notice. And so... we got
up to the peak of Mt
Lofty. And it was 6.30am!!
Guess what greeted us there? IT WAS BLOODY FREAKING COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like 5
degrees okay!!!
 The idiots at Mt Lofty at 6am in the morning...
More idiots at Mt Lofty... trying to be heroes... *rolls eyes*
We stayed for a good 10 minutes and decided we better make a
move… or risk freezing. So we headed to Starbucks in Glenelg for coffee and
brekkie. And browsed thru the Sunday market stalls they had there.
After that… we hit the Beach House and played a game of Mini
Golf… which I lost in the end (eh…my aiming not good okay) *frown*
It’s suppose to be a PAR3 course but there was once I took
12 shots to sink the ball… *blush*
 My first attempt at trying to golf...
 Can't get the damn ball in.. so pose la.. what to do?
A nice shot by my phone camera of Glenelg at 8am in the morning
Blur people trying to smile for the camera... after no sleep the night before
More blur people trying to smile...
Besides a crazy 17-hour games night… the “nothing better to
do people” drove to Victor Harbour…
JUST TO HAVE DINNER!
We ended up at Café Primo there and had Oysters and a good
dinner before a long drive back to Adelaide.
We even got a free pancake from the manager! 
EASTER 2007 – THE MELBOURNE
ADVENTURE… AGAIN!
We hit Melbourne…yes…AGAIN!
This time… the four of us (Kat, Amrit, Jay and I) went in our car and the boys
took turns driving. Honestly… the road trip wasn’t all that comfy after all. We
ended up with sore bodies after we got back.
It was a good 10 hour slow drive. Stopped at Neil for an
awesome Big Brekkie.  
The Crew that hit Melby...
This time we stayed in a really nice service apartment, The
Quest. It’s just at the corner of the city perimeter in East
Melbourne, and only a 10 minute walk to Bridge
Road (the shopping precinct).
We spent the first night in Crown after dinner at Nasi Lemak
House near Lygon. Caught up with Seanz too.

On our second day... Kat and I went crazy shopping in Smith
St and Bridge Road.
The boys had to tag along to carry our shopping. *grin* At night, we picked up Goon from her place
and headed to St Kilda for a cocktail before hitting Port Melbourne for some
awesome pizzas!!  Jay and I with Goon at Port Melbourne with our yummy pizzaz
Amrit and Katrina with their pizza
More shopping on the final day… and more Max Brenner too!
Had lunch at Goldan Fork and spent an hour and a half trying to find our way
out of Melbourne *laughs* 
The crew having Max Brenner for brekkie..
(We asked a cabbie for directions to Princess
Highway and he nicely gave directions to Princess
Highway leading to Sydney!!
So we had to turn back… but got lost and was heading towards Tullarmarine
airport! Third try… and we finally got it right!)

MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT MAKING NASI LEMAK…
And it was a HUGE SUCCESS!! It was so good… that Jay started bragging to our
friends about how awesome it was! He even said he’ll open a Nasi Lemak House in
Adelaide for me!! *chuckles*
 
Bon Appetite!!
THE RANDOMZ…
A really cool shot of Jay and Amrit inside a lift moving Katrina's palm trees... *laughs*
This is my boss's dented bumper.
No... It WAS NOT MY FAULT!
I was on my way to a patient's house to deliver his prescriptions when i was hit from the back by a lady in another car while STOPPING AT AN INTERSECTION!
Woman driver... sheesh.
 A nice sunset shot i got with my phone cam while at work... *grin*
I saw how nice and pinkish the sky was and decided i really need to take a photo of it.
So i stood by the door and *click*
As I was browsing
thru the pictures in my Mac… I came across these pics which I was suppose to
post on me blog but never did…
