Crunch Time.

Exams are coming, the mugging has begin. Day 2 and I'm picking up the pack steadily. Hope I can maintain it till exams come. Darling has been coming over to study, and it really helps me keep my focus on the work. Whenever she's around, I have to study and that's a good thing. =D

Except for some of her irritating habits, like making this weird popping sound when she unconsciously snaps her jaws together, she's alright as a study partner. Oh did I mention that she loves to flip her notes endlessly after finishing a page, and it irritates the hell out of me. Like after every page, she flips the entire chapter to see how many pages more to go. Then starts on a new page. Repeat cycle for the remaining chapter. Hahaha feel like telling her, freaking just read the thing and stop wasting time wondering how much more to go. 

Parents just left Melbourne, and I'm missing them a little already. Spent the beginning of the mid-semester holidays with them, had a ball of a time. Went house viewing, went to Port Aurthur, spent a day cooking dinner for them with Jasmin. Really relaxing good stuff.

Love the houses I've seen. Really impressive interior designs and beauty. Most of them are deceiving from the way they look on the outside. Rundown, humble on the exterior, well-renovated and lavish on the interior. 

Port Aurthur was an absolute delight to visit. Great views of the surrounding sea from Mr. Gomez's beach house atop the hill. Lovely comfy place, from which to spend the day eating fish and chips and exploring the surrounding towns. We had dinner there, and I loved the dinner topics and company. Really hope we get together sometime soon.

Rosemary Lamb. My first try at it, and it tasted fine, but was a little too hard by the time it was done. I was unsure of the time to leave it in the oven, so I had to cut it up multiple times to check. Ah well, everyone except mummy seemed to enjoy it so... 

Stayed at the Quest serviced apartments at Chapel Street. Lovely spacious place, it was a really nice pad from which to travel around Melbourne or just laze around. I was absolutely glued to the plasma TV, and I can't rememeber how many hours I spent in front of it catching old movies. Man, that was the life.

Anyways, have to say it was a great start to my Easter holidays. Now its time to get back into business. Gonna own the pile of lecture notes on my printer.
