Koko Black's signature Ice Chocolate. There's 2 scoops of ice-cream in the cold chocolate drink (one vanilla one chocolate), bottomed with thick chocolate syrup. Chocolate heaven anyone? :P Btw, those lil chocolate blocks was a complimentary from Koko Black. They ran outta cups because it was full hse and Chu Xiang asked the waitress to check our order. As a result, the whole table was given a plate consists of 10 dark chocolate with mint filling which cost $1.40 ea, fwee!!

At Caleen's place at College Square, Swanston. This was taken another day after we went for dinner.

At Koko Black again with Helen (from HK), Natalie (from here) and Ingvill (from far-away Norway). It was my first time hanging out with course mates. We went to get our art supplies at the city during breaktime and went there for dessert after lunch.

Dark Belgian Hot Chocolate. It's oh-so-chocolaty and really thick. Look at the foam :)

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Very sinful indeed :P

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Just some (not all) of the chocs they have. Each chocolate is $1.40 ea.

Next, Victoria Night Market.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
It was the last day of the night market at Victoria Market that's why it's even crowded than usual.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Loads of food but even more people, every stall has a queue and we couldn't find a place to sit.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
So we just stood beside the corner and makan :) Hehe was quite fun though.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

With Ben and my new baby(the siberian husky hahaha) at Moomba Festival(It's a water festival beside the Yarra River). Besides the rides and games, there was a 30 minute fireworks(I love fireworks!!) which I thought was breath-taking. Beats the one during NYE hands down wahaha.

With Elaine at St Kilda. It's a short trip organized by ISSU of Monash Caufield, pretty worth it cuz it's only $5 with dinner(pizza) + transportation(bus) included and we were taken to the beach and a mini fun fair over there.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
It's another uni trip. Hmmmmmph the koala's were being a bitch lazy as usual, all curled up, and sadly there was only 3. We didn't get a close look on them as they were quite far away and didn't show their faces. Lazy asses haha.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Don't sweat, it's dead, though it still looks damn ganas if you ask me. Ok maybe not this one.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
But certainly this one. It looks like it's about to attempt a head-ripping. :S

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
I was quite disappointed cuz of the koalas, but kangaroos made my day :) That's Adrian flashing his newly dyed red hair shades hehe.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Very cute can? And tame too. A whole bunch of people were there taking pictures with it, and still, it didn't bulge.

Roll forward again to a week before Easter break.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
At Papa Gino's at Lygon in conjunction with Mel's Bday. She's from Taylors but I didn't get to know her (even though we've been in the same LAN class for a yr) until when I met up Pierre and Slehsha (both Msians from Brunei) and she came too. *Sings "It's a small world afffffterall"*

Btw food was good, we had pizza and pasta. Cake was good too, and so was the company :) Had a great night even though we only went out for dinner.

And now, more food, MY food.

In a very rare occasion, I got to go for a free Buffet Dinner @ Conservatory, Crown cuz a friend's friend's friend's husband (also Msian but from Penang) is working there, no kidding bout the friend x3 part = =" Felt kinda paiseh la because I didn't know them until that day. Nonetheless, FOOD WAS GOOD, enough said :D

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
I likeeee.

We didn't take alot of pictures though :((

Anyway this morning after breakfast I sent her to Southern Cross Station to take the Sky Bus to Melb Airport.

I miss having her already la, nowadays where can I find someone who likes plush toys as much as I do, feed the lil fluffy brown bird who's outnumbered and outsized by fat pigeons, enjoy breakfast as much as I do, go crazy over lil cartoon figures (Urm yeah I like toys, especially vinyl toys and lil cartoon plastic models, I bet not many people knows) and doesn't mind being silly and crap around nonsensically when there's nothing to talk about. (P/s: Btw, I got another one: Peter Pan!! Now it's your turn muahahaha)


//*

One last roll of pictures. Last, I promise.

These are some shots of one of my current assignment.

We're supposed to make a 3D model out of planar material (note: planar means 2D) by which reflects a self-pick 3-letter-word by using the letters itself.

To put it more simple, I picked TOY, I have to make a model which resembles a real toy out of "T", "O" and "Y" and nothing else (means no base and no extra added stuff), all by using only 2-D materials.

Sounds like a pain-in-the-ass?

Well, it IS.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
This is what I came out with at first. Can see all 3 "T", "O" and "Y"? ("Y" is upside down) It looks damn ugly la cuz it's the back hehe.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Abit of the front.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
The front view =9 I made it to resemble a typical toy model, like those collectibles.

And so, I didn't get a very pleasant feedback from the lec.

Everyone in class was required to come out with a variation of their model. In other words, ANOTHER ONE.

I was really worried cuz I couldn't think of anything and was afraid she shoot me hasty comments again. I did mine last minute, and spontaneously, without a visual diary (we are supposed to scribble our ideas to show progress in a sketch book).

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
This is what I came out.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
It's a model of a dog made out of wood. The parts can be disassemble and put back again.

Anyway I thought it was a fail attempt cut "T" "O" "Y" isn't very clearly shown, the heard and front legs is supposed to make up "T", body "O" and back legs "Y"

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Here's the "Y" btw. BLEH cut my finger when cutting the wood :(

Second day I went to class feeling anxious cuz. Did I mention our models are being critique in class? In front of everyone and one by one, and yes la I kiasu la can anot.

But very surprisingly, she likes the second one more than the first, on the fact that "you can play around with it". HAHA relieved.

Anyway we have to make yet another one for our final. And it has to be completed with colours, added objects and everything else. Due date is right after hols, wuwuwuwuuwuwuw I havent get started T.T

Sigh 3 more days and hols is OVER, back to 2 more months of not-able-to-get-enough-sleep, eye-bags, getting-up-wee-early-in-the-morning, deadline-panic and no-life life =((

OK that's allfor today, there's summore pics actually but I'm lazy dee so I'll save you the time loading even more pics than this post already has haha.

Hope it all loads, I have to post all up in one blow or not I know I'm gona end up leaving them as half-finished drafts again like all the older posts.

But before that, one last (for real this time) obligatory self shot hah!
