Good start of holiday!

Oops... so long didn't post things here already... hehe... hmm.. this shows that how busy i was. haha!!
I'm having my mid sem break for 2 weeks from Sat. Besides having a good rest, still hv to catch up with my studies... aih...
Well, I had a good start of my mid sem break.
I went to play badminton for almost 3 hours with my frens from Biomed at Albert Part on Friday. That was sooooo tiring!! After that, we went to a Maxican restaurant for dinner... hmm...well, the food that i ordered was a bit tasteless. Good try though.. haha.... then , we headed to Lygon (the italian street in Melbourne) for Gelati (an italian ice cream)!! it had been months since i last ate gelati! I had durian + green tea gelati.. hehe.... good choice! err... but doesn't mean that's a good combination..haha!
Friday nite, 2 of our frens sleptover at my place.
Then on Saturday... 4 of us went out shopping ... err... well, i didn't buy anything though..haha.. That's what always happen to me when I went out shopping with my frens.
Not that I don't want or need anything, just haven't seen what I really like. haha... I'm still looking for a water bottle, pencil case, a jumper....
Then at nite, we went to Crown for a movie: Suddenly 30 (I think it's called 13 turning 30 in M'sia, but i'm not so sure). It was a nice movie and it touched our heart! haha... I think it's more of a "girls' movie" haha.
Sunday!! Horse-riding day!! yay!! It's an activity run by the Malaysia Culture Society (MCS). It's at Mt Disappointment. although it sounds err.... but the trip was not disappointing at all!!
I got a slow... i really mean slow... horse.. he's quite old i think.. abt 20 years old. Coz I didn't really know how to control him, i terlanggar some twigs and small branches...aih... haha... not that he terlanggar, but he went so close to those trees that I was the one who kena!!
There were about 32 of us. We went on horse-riding in the 'jungle' haha... saw kangaroos... after abt 2 hours, reached the top, took a light meal in a small house. really nice scenery from up there!! well, err... all around are farms, not for plantation, but sheeps and cows... all green.... blue sky... how nice!! then, another 1 hour to go back down... (obviously, we took a different route) We had bbq there and cut b'day cake for a girl from the group (whom i dunno).
Then, off we go... back to the city...
So tiring!! almost everyone fell asleep in the bus on our way back.. haha
I'll put up the photos on webshots when I have them... hehe
after 2 and a half 'holiday', hv to think about finding out research projects for the Chemistry vacation scholarship and physics seminar...
Oh ya... I applied for the scholarship and was in the short list now... so have to find out which research project offered interest me. Have to discuss about that in the interview which is after Sep 27th. Still dunno the exact day yet. wish me luck!!
