ps : i heart you ♥

hellos!

as most of you know i am finally done with exams!! not my proudest moments but i am glad it is over and done with! i should be heading on to the post-exam freedom kind of fun but.... i still feel as tho i am in a middle of a semester. i am barely putting myself out there to just go all out with the fun just yet. having said that, i am slowly picking up the pace to plan my after exam outings! my three months holiday outings!! :DDD

starting with today! was out the whole afternoon with the boyfie for my favourite thing to do, date day! :DDD to me, days that involves teck wei, fooooood (ones not cooked by yours truly) and just chilling is a date day!

met up with the boyfriend at melbourne central and quickly headed over to manchester press. both of our tummys were in need of food and another thing is to beat the working crowd's lunch hour.

it was teck wei's first visit and he was under the impression that i was walking him to somewhere that i would put him up for sale because we were walking in a back alley. ahah! well.... he is too precious to me to be put up for sale anyways! :P ♥


luckily for us, we walked in and was seated right away. as soon as we occupied the last available table, there was already a waiting list up on the wall nearby the entrance already.



i reckon the serving sized down a little bit as compared to my first visit last year. but it was still good. at least i enjoyed it! the bagel was toasted and everything complimented each other well (: for $13, it is considered cheap brunch already. but i know that this meal wasn't going to fill the bf up.

after brunch, we walked over to bourke street mall just for a stroll and the myers christmas window was up!


then then, as i've said the bf still hasn't filled up, so we went over to snag stand for a snack.

prolly one day i'll go back and try a proper hot dog and see how it is.


it was somewhat fun walking through the state library with the bf. there was this one part in the lift that the bf gave the cutest scared expression! HAHAHA!

after our state library stroll, we went over to dessert story on chinatown to catch up with wei ping ((: been awhile since i last saw her and we needed something cold. because the weather was hot today! whats better than cold dessert on a hot day? :P

was done catching up in a hour. it was short but i'll be seeing wei ping tomorrow anyways because we are going to chadstone for their VIP sales along with audrey!!

headed home after that. and had dinner at like 6pm. it was chicken schnitzel, crumbed lamb cutlet and salad for dinner (:

i was literally on a food hunt today eh? hehe there will be more to come!!

been watching series ever since i was done with dinner. i should really get to cleaning up the mess i've made in my room over the exam period! will get it done by the end of the night (:

for now, back to more series! bones and once upon a time (((:

i had a great date day today! till my next planned outing, ciao y'all!

with love,
sher xoxo.

in precisely 36 hours, i'll be done with exams. and it'll be the end of my semester for the year!

BUT i am barely surviving through the next 33 hours before exam even begins. on the verge of losing it but still had to hold everything together. because if i don't, it would most probably be catastrophic..

the smell of 3 pure months of freedom is so near yet so far... i can't wait till its time for me to laze around and do absolutely nothing and feel no guilt about it all. i can't wait to just go all out and have fun and eat all the happy things that is on my list and go on a photography trip on my own or with my darl. mainly just to capture the wonderful moments of melbourne and to brush up my photography skills. and if it is with the darl/bf, it'll be for happy dates and the breath taking details.

melbourne has to be captured in this certain way that I see it. then only it could be officially accounted for as MY melbourne journey..

but till then, this awful unit has to come first and get in the way.. i'll be back when all this weight and burden are off my shoulders.

wish me luck! and God, please give me courage for the this last upcoming paper.

love,
shereena.

my first paper starts in less than 20 hours and i am no where near ready. how do people even get ready for a programming unit? it is either you get it or you don't. and we are expected to learn two programming languages in 3 months and is expected to vomit every single detail out in 3 hours? come on... =/

one week of pure torture ahead! i can't wait for next monday at 12.15pm when they say pens down! three papers.. and two of it is really tough.. god, please give me strength and miracle to get through my papers.. ): please..

been studying so hard for this subject for the past week over at teck wei's. and yet, still like that... omggggg!?!$#@%#$@ =/

exam period is all about emo talks for me. okay, enough of it.

move on to happier things.. (:


mum won it in a lucky draw along with an iPod shuffle! so lucky eh? and she already has an iPad, so this becomes mine :D been contemplating on whether i really wanted it before this or not and was thinking of buying but now, it is free and it comes with 32gb and 3g and it is MINE!

i am so hyped up over the fact that i'll be getting an iPad and i can't decide what case to get. i want to get all sorts of case lahhhhh but they are all so expensive ))): i mean the really nice ones are like $27 or at least $15 ))): i am so indecisive! i want a few leather cases and a smart cover case and a colourful hard cover case with a cute sleeve, in short i want everything! aihhhhhhhh =/

i am currently bidding on a paul frank case tho. i always had a thing for the paul frank monkey :D and its with hearts all over! shall have a picture up IF i get it :D

he'll be about 7 months plus when i am back. can't wait!


i am like super obsessed with this combo right now. so nice! and i have to do a spring clean and opt some of my clothes to charity before i run out of closet space! :P

for a moment i was feeling a little better after writing down my happy thoughts. but now... back to emofying and horrifying programming notes and past years.

GOD HELP ME PLEASE!

gonna maybe study for an hour or two and then sleep for about 5 hours and freshen up for battle. exam battle! i have precisely 19 hours till my paper. yes, my stupid uni has exams scheduled for at 6pm in the evening. it is stupid. i know..

by the time i am out of exams it'll be about 930pm and by the time i get home will be close to 11pm. crazyyyy planning people!

okay ciao.. wish me luck!

shereena.

hellos!

i am suppose to be studying for exams as my papers starts next tuesday and it'll be going on for a week but instead, i am distracted by so many things. the new songs that i just downloaded, my growling stomach and also the urge to wanna blog and just do whatever and not go back to the awful dreading microcontrollers programming codes... =/

the past week wasn't very happening. all it was, was just the last week of uni for the semester. well there was one thing to note, sunday lunch date with the boyfriend (: the usual me dragging him out for food hunting!

anyhoo, i shall just briefly talk about the day by day routine (:

starting last tuesday,


it was so so so hot that day! i remember it being close to 30 degrees and i almost died. malaysia is 30 plus degrees but you sweat it out. yeah i hate the stickiness but when you perspire your body cools down. and with freaking melbourne, it is blardy dry! dry equals no perspiring. means hot like shit! 30 degrees feels more than that.. how am i gonna survive through summer? ):

now itself i am already having the fan blasted at me while i am typing this. i miss air conditioning ))): unfortunately at the boyfriend's and at home, there isn't an air-cond. at home there is a cooler but it is no where near an air-cond..... )):


seriously cheers to strategic uni location! i have like everything nearby weih... like EVERYTHING! there's maccas, pizza hut, cacao green, all kinds of cuisines (thai, korean, japanese, brunch, malaysian, vietnamese.. etc) you name it, we most probably have it nearby.. and at affordable prices. like standard $10 average meals. you know... student budgets. i know how the monash clayton people envy my uni location hahahah!

because clayton is just that sad... when it comes to food.


wednesday,


thursday,

aunty D fetched me to uni as i only have one hour of lecture and we were going to head to vic market after my classes.

just went walking around vic market to look for a sheep placenta cream. haha it is supposedly to be useful. so yeah..


friday and saturday, was just commuting over to teck wei's and just stay in. he is done with his exams and finally done with his degree! i am so happy for him (: the awesome feeling he gets when he was out from his last paper and said to me, graduate already. i wish that day would come for me faster!

yesterday,

went down to the city with him for lunch. initially i wanted to go down for brunch, then i found out on urbanspoon that there is this awesome burger place which is the current number one talk of the town. and knowing this boyfriend of mine is a big fan of burgers, i gave him the choice between Proud Mary for brunch or lunch at Huxtaburger for burger. there were both in the same area anyways and knowing him, burger it was! :D i wanted to try both anyhows so it was certainly fine by me (((:

hehehe i am a super wai sek guai okay! i live to eat :D


but the burger was seriously damn awesome! thinking about it right now makes me want to eat again ): amazebombs! will definitely go back again before i go back to malaysia!


after lunch, i had to get back into the city to get some stuff for my mum. once we got down the tram, i made a pit stop fot dessert! heheheheh i know i eat and eat and eat non stop :P


we sat and ate along the bourke street mall observing people and enjoying the sunday street performers (:

then went to the hairdresser cause the boyfriend needs a haircut. basically its the same hairstyle but just shorter. i doubt he could have much extreme hair makeovers anyways. ever.

came back and he slept for 8 hours straight then woke up and finish up the highs and lows last two episodes with me (:


yesterday was a good day! how could it not be as it involved the boyfie, awesome burger, froyo and chilling. my version of a good date :D
wokays.. now i shall snack on some red rock deli chips and then squeeze in some studying then cook and then more studying.

i am not looking forward to the next two weeks at all..

once exam is over, you'll be expecting to see me jump up and down with lots and lots of joy, happens every semester! but this holiday will be so much fun! all the friend's graduation including teck wei's and then it is my new years eve sydney trip with my darling! omg i so can't wait!!!

then then i'll be heading back to malaysia for roughly a month and a half (; wheeeee..!

toodles peepz!

love,
sher xoxo.

imagine the smile on my face when i read the text. he is my best friend, the love of my life and my pillar of support. 

what would i do without him around...? despite whatever obstacles there is for us to come, i am sure we would survive. I Strongly Believe.

-♥

I am having one of those before exams before swotvac demotivated nights. I am still wondering what I am doing with my life. Stuck in the same place when everyone else is moving forward. People say, don't worry about others. They say, how others strived or how others failed should have no impact on justifying what you're doing with your life because it is YOUR life. But, seeing people moving on and writing new chapters of their lives just can't help to make me wonder when will that day come for me?

I could have easily enrolled in a business course and probably survived it or maybe at least do what I love or surrounded with things that makes me love what I do. But instead, I am no where near what I love doing nor seeing myself doing what I do now in the future.

Life is all about struggle and how you make the best out of it but I am just not that optimistic person. And I tend to give up on things when I know it wouldn't work out at the end anyways. But this, THIS, the path I've supposedly chosen, I can't give up. There is too much to lose and there isn't another way out. The only one is to, strive another 12 subjects and I'll be done with this.

My white flag is already making quarter of its way up. How much longer could it be? Before I could put an end to this. Don't get me wrong, it is an amazing and bright future course. But it is just not me. At least not with the vision I have right now.

I am more than halfway across. And I keep trying to tell myself that the light at the end of it, isn't that far away. But I myself keep stepping further and further away from the light and just keep drifting and wandering somewhere else. I know, I may not be the best and most discipline person ever because I procrastinate till the cow comes home and I still never move. Just that, I am so demotivated. I don't wanna move. I keep crawling back to my comfort routine and put everything else which is important on hold. I just keep running away from reality and just hope and hope and keep my fingers crossed that things would just miraculously work out.

It is not something I should say but it is how I feel. And it is heartbreaking and disappointing altogether yet I never make a stand for myself. I am failing to succeed at this point of my life. And I SHOULD BE fighting back. I should, I know.

I'd just wish I could turn back time and choose it again. Impossible, I know. Not something I should say, I know. I should be saying "I'll make the best with what I have and do the best with what I have" but, honestly, even if I would have said it, I wouldn't have meant it.

If only I didn't have so many but(s).. and so many I know(s) that I am neglecting.

I am sorry for letting you down, mom.

shereena.

hey ya'll!

this is my last week of uni for the semester. and then it'll be exam period and i am so not looking forward to it. i absolutely hate exams so much. like seriously... the whole stress and the routine just kills me. but oh well i could only complain and not get away with it... ):

anyways last week was nice (: weeks that involves teck wei, shopping and good food and no uni work are always categorised as good weeks :DD

soo... jump back to the thursday i went over to the boyfriend's,

went over after classes and the boyfriend was having a very good day as he was done with his design project. completely like a heavy burden being lifted off him. happy him, happy me! (:

end up chucking it out. yes it was bad and i've never cooked anything so bad before like seriously... ): and then spent the whole night watching movies and what not with the boyfriend.

saturday, had brunch date plans with the boyfie at chadstone (:


which is where i found $50 under the table we sat and for that moment i thought "maybe i could just pick it up and keep it in my pocket." but there was these two ladies sitting beside us and i had to ask if it was theirs. but turns out it wasn't and so happened the waiter passed by so i handed it over to him. because i know that the couple who originally sat at our place wasn't gone for very long and it might be theirs. but coming to think of it now, it might be tips for the waiter already.. haha!

anyways.. back to the food!

after brunch, we just went walking around chaddy for a bit. went for a little window shopping and just enjoying saturday brunch and window shopping day out with the boyfriend (:


and then we went grocery shopping to stock up on the boyfriend's exam period food and headed back.



i'll stick to cooking chicken next time! and not deviate! i can't believe i cooked two days continuously of yucky food ))): so emo...

spent the night watching one tree hill and vampire diaries, greys anatomy, private practice and supernatural while the boyfriend went out for a short drinking session with some friends.

vampire diaries shall now be my favourite show and the next would be greys ((:

and once the boyfriend got back, we just spent the rest of the night giggling about nonsense and just goofing around. hehe!

sunday,

woke up close to 3pm. and i was going home with the 4.45pm bus. so yeah... had a pie for lunch and just did nothing. packing and cleaning as per usual lah.. then i was off for home. i love it when the boyfriend sends me out till where i have to get the bus... hehehe! super sweet to me (:

was home by 6.15pm. and was greeted by the smell of steak with pepper (:


super yums! and super healthy! feels like i can eat so much without even feeling a tiny bit guilty..! HEHEHE :DD

today,

went to uni. and it was so hot outside!! )): like so so hot and dry... 27 degrees is already killing me! tomorrow it will be 30 degrees and so is the day after. i am seriously so not looking forward to summer AT ALL! and i will have to go through it till early jan before i go back to malaysia! heat is fine with me as malaysia is hot as well but i don't tolerate heat and dryness together. its horrrriiiibbbleeeeeee!! like a freaking giant oven!!


after dinner i went out for an hour walk around the neighbourhood with aunty D. it was nice going for exercise after dinner. feels better in some way or maybe its just me thinking haha!


gotta head to bed soon. tomorrow i have an early class at 930am which means 830am out of the house ): those who knows me well enough... i don't do well with waking up early :P HEHE!

omgggg my room is so hot! and with the heat season coming, i have tiny little insects in my room and mosquitoes. no fun ): summer i don't like you at all.....

the boyfriend is having his first paper tomorrow. hopefully things turns out well (: he'll always be MY smarty pants despite whoever thinks whatever ((:

oh and i've recently downloaded the nuffnangx app. and it has been pretty fun! its like instagram but in blogs form instead of pictures. and its like all the blogs you love reading in one feed. super convenient! (:

that's it for now! goodnight peeps!

much love,
shereena.
