Im back! haha. What happens when you are trying to do something and you are so distracted by something else? THINGS SCREW UP! I was changing my IE settings while watching tv. My attention was focused on the tv and not my laptop so i didnt really pay attention to what i was clicking. Then i screwed up the settings and i couldnt access some webpages anymore, couldn't blog anymore, my browser refused to allow me to load Blogger so i had to post that last msg from the com downstairs (which isnt mine). Good news is that its back and running now!
Hahaha..... past few weeks have been quite ok. Been loving the sun these few weeks, cant wait for spring. Im sick of covering myself up from neck to toe everyday to shield myself from the blistering cold (haha exaggerating). I feel the need to bare some skin once in awhile, i miss wearing tank tops and flip flops. Ive also caught a mild cold because of this darn weather.
Been eating non-stop since winter. I think i put on another kilo since the last time i weighed myself so that totals to 2kg ever since i came to Sydney. Not bad... not bad at all. I was trying a new top a bought yesterday and realised i look a bit like a scarecrow, so i kind of told myself i have to eat like mad so i can gain more weight! Neh bought me the famous Phi Pies from Matraville last week yummmm! Ohoh we finally watched a movie after soooo long. Fantastic 4 was ok lah, i expected the story to be better & for the baddie not to be defeated so easily. But i can guarantee there will be a part 2, as always like other Marvel comics movies. And i have to add that Johnny played by Chris Evans is sooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!! Even Neh who rarely thinks anyone is good looking agreed. Hmm...but i just checked out his biography on Yahoo; he looks very very different in the photo... Hmm..i wonder what other movies are good. YESSSSSSSSSSSS THE SEXPO IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!! Neh & i are gonna go see it this Saturday!!! Haha...Jeff would be so jealous cos there will be real porn stars & u get to take a photo with them. I saw some guy's picture at the Sexpo in Melbourne, he was cupping the porn star's boob! Thats how up-close u can get...so guys would be really interested in going.
Gotta go to Medibank to claim my medical fees tmr morning. Went to see a doctor last week. The medibank private clinic was closed so i had to go to a normal MediCare clinic and consultation only was $50!!! Plus meds cost me $80. Wah lau its really freaking expensive to see a doc here. Then i think ill shun bian collect my stuff then head for school. Then go get my shoes after school and have a Zinger for lunch. Im addicted to Zinger! Oh & i wanna have BonBon Rocher icecream again cos we bought 1 yesterday but i went in a shop, Neh waited outside, i took quite long cos i was trying on something & by the time i came out Neh had to finish the ice-cream was it was melting! I think its damn shiok to have icecream in winter.
Last point. Im not sure if some of you know yet, Yun i already told u. Anyway ive got something up my sleeve. *Cheeky Grin* okok i better stop before i get all excited & let the cat out of the bag.
Jeana >>> U got me hooked onto Raining On the Sky!!!
Time to sleep...Good nite!!!!!

I have been toying with the idea of getting a prime-time job since im pretty free and my timetable is quite flexible. I have yet (yess....since feb) to apply for a change of class for my visa, one that allows me to work part-time. I already have a few places in mind, its quite easy to get a job cos a lot of places are shorthanded and are currently looking to hire. So i hope once i get a reply from DMIA which would be in a bout a months time, i can quickly send my resumes and go for interviews and hopefully i can get the job on my no. 1 list. I was told by a friend that i have a big advantage and should just go straight to the store, ask for the manager, enquire abt prime-timing and maybe get an on-the-spot interview. My parents are really supportive about this. Besides getting extra cash to mend my burnt pockets, i get to enjoy some veryvery special priviledges if i continue working after a year, which, i would likely want to. *fingers crossed* i hope DMIA speeds up their paperwork. The visa service is actually available online but im damn SUAY lah! The school office said i couldn't apply online because of some previous conflict of my eCOE when i was applying. Its their fault! Grrr...but anyway, time will pass quickly esp when i have so much to do.
I was damn pissed yesterday with Krisflyer. I called the hotline to change my flight cos ill be back in Sept. This ticket is a redemption booking cos damn im flying back every 3 months man, and since my dad has shitloads of mileage which is redeemable, why not redeem right? The ticket is booked under my dads account, but issued to my name of course since im the passenger. So i called Krisflyer, logged in using my dads account number and i was put through to the cust svc rep.
1st thing. I gave him my confirmation code, then he asked me for the Krisflyer account number, and then birthday and passport number. I didnt know my Dads passport number so i told him i was Mr Lazaro's daughter and i don't know my dad's passport number. Then he went on saying it is required for verification purposes. Then he asked if i was Ms Crystal Lazaro & i was like YES.. So he just repeated himself & explained that next time i need to produce the passport number to verify. Next, i told him i wanted to change my flight. Then he asked me for a reason. So i said well, im going back earlier instead of in Dec, so he asked again wat was my reason. I got pretty annoyed by this point cos damn, why is he making things so difficult. So i said, i have a holiday in Sept so im coming back. After saying so much. He freaking said that i cannot change my flight because it is a redemption booking & i have used the 1st half of the ticket in June. So i was damn pissed already cos bloody hell, if the reason for not being able to change the booking is because it is a redemption booking & i have already used the 1st half of the ticket (which he had seen earlier) WHY THE HELL ASK ME FOR A REASON why i am changing my flight? Ok, i asked a few more questions then hung up. I was quite irritated with this guy so i called my Dad & told him abt it. He said he would change the booking for me then. Abt 10mins later, he said he COULD change the booking and already done so. I was like WTF is wrong with that guy? Damn it i wasted like 15mins of phone calls which is not cheap at all here in Australia, to get lousy service? Too bad i didnt catch his name, otherwise i will complain!!! hahaha...i sound like a typical Singaporean, complain abt this & that.
Speaking of complaints, i can't stand this particular employee at Sydney City Myer. Her name is Louise. I had 2 bad experiences with her. And im pretty sure shes so nasty cos shes bloody racist. Ive observed how she treats Caucasian customers and how she treats other Asians. & the 2nd incident was quite bad, too long to explain. Neh said i should complain cos in Australia, service to customers is like really good, who knows i may get some compensation. But i don't really care abt that, im just really unhappy with the way THAT particular employee treats Asian customers.
Nehs having exams next week, haa..cant wait for the weekend. Its practically what i look forward to everyday. Its what motivates me & keeps me going throughout the day. & im starting to think that we should move in. But before that happens, WE have to consult MY parents. Im just quite irritated because i stay quite far, although its abt 35mins train ride, i still have to walk from the station to school. Well, the pros of living with my Aunt is that i don't have to cook especially on days when i end late & reach home at almost 7 or during exam time, & i only have to do my own chores (tidy up my room, do my own laundry). The cons: sometimes my Aunt's aslp & cant pick me up from the station so i have to walk home. The thing is, i don't really have a problem walking home even though its quite far, BUT the path is really hilly (really goes UPPPP n downnnn) and it kills my shoes cos going up steep slopes spoils my heels. & sometimes i have to walk when its so coldddd.... In addition, even though the train ride is not that long, i have to wake up 2 hrs b4 sch starts to get ready. & if i stay in the city, i probably only need abt 1hr to get ready cos sch is like 5mins from anywhere in the city. Plus if i stay in the city that means ill be taking bus to sch everyday which costs only $12.70 for 10 rides or even $20+ for a weekly ticket compared to a weekly train ticket of $33. I also feel as though im imposing on them even though my parents insisted that we pay them rent (although much at cheaper than compared to living by myself). So, im just bearing with it cos staying with them costs a lot less than living alone, whereas if Neh & i live together, id probably be paying only abt a max of $100 more than what im paying now. Besides, Neh will be getting a car at the end of this year so transport will be a lot better too. A lot of people are like saying, since you are STILL paying for rent at your Aunt's might as well just pay a little bit more so i can stay nearer to school & save time on transport.
Hai~ so many pros & cons, i don't know what to do.
Can't wait for the end of this month!!!

Hello ppleee...i know ive been MIA for quite some time since i was in Singapore. Had a change of plans so i came back to Sydney earlier which was last week, sorry didnt tell u guys so that we could arrange to meet up earlier cos it was just a bit too sudden and i still had a lot of things to do... yeah procrastinating again & left everything till the last minute hehe.
Since i got back, everything has been a joyride. Friday marked my 2nd anniversary with Neh. I just have this enormous feeling of joy, i know i discussed some issues with Yun, but guess what? All those bad feelings are longggg gone. It never crossed my mind anymore & everything has just been absolutely wonderful, i think im in heaven. Now i know what it really feels like to be in bliss. To love and to have these feelings reciprocated. I never really felt so strongly, the feelings are just growing at a very rapid rate. Seriously, these 2 years don't feel like it at all, i still feel as though we just met not long ago, Neh says that this feeling is good. Im not sure if its good or bad, but i just know that im veryveryvery happy now. I was probably worrying/thinking too much before.
Neh has been nagging at me. Since i came back, i bought 8 pairs of shoes Hahahahhaha & other sutff too. I felt sooo shiok carrying those paper bags, Neh kept insisting on helping me carry some cos he said i was a "road" hazard. But i insisted that i wanted to carry everything myself, cos it feeeels damnnnnnn shiok to be carrying so many shopping bags. Can't blame. Everything in Sydney now is on sale. & ohhhh!!! I met Karen, this girl who was from our primary school, i cant remember which class she was from, i think Ixora or Rose or something like that. I think she went to STC in Sec, i don't really know her, but i kind of got to know her during my "crooked" years, i think she knew Chap. Anyway I met her outside Nine West. I was like omg! Karen right? & she went Crystal right? She's transferring here this semester to Sydney U. Didnt get her number though, it was her turn to enter Nine West while i was on my way out & the lady guarding the door was like telling us to go elsewhere if we wanted to chat. Its freaking rare to meet someone i know from Sg cos there aren't many S'poreans here in Sydney.
Ahh...i suddenly remember i still have something to do which i have delayed since Feb, hahahhahaha. I should do it this week.
Ok..time to satisfy my sweet tooth!
