9 Oct 2009It was desire borne out of my passion for travelling that brought me and my two Melburnian neighbours to a remote Victorian place called Stony Point. We previously discussed heading there when the place first caught my eye on a train map at Jewell Station after a Hari Raya Open House—it was marked as a [...]

4 Oct 2009Wednesday, 23rd September 2009 Forgot to put up this pic in the previous entry, but the back story of this photo is this: I was on my way back from uni and decided to be a law-abiding citizen for once and attempt to sit the free City Circle tram back home. A non-free tram arrived [...]

29 Sep 2009Friday, 18th September 2009 It was a Friday night and I spent it blogging whilst waiting for some form of cards-related drunken debauchery to begin, when Ethan messaged me on GTalk telling me that Ivan had just came back and that they were going out to Docklands. It must be around 10pm when that happened, [...]

19 Sep 2009Sigh my blog entries have been reduced to weekly digests and it’s not how I want them to be. I’m not able to delve into tiny details from events or the things that I’ve done as my memories are addled with things I read or tried to memorise for my upcoming tests, among other things—and [...]
I’m still too incessantly busy to piece together a proper travel post, but pictures and some smaller details would have to suffice. So on the 6th September, a Sunday, I got up at 4.30am (had only 2 hours of sleep) to get ready for my Mt. Buller trip organised by my accommodation—we had to pay [...]
In Aisle 7 of Woolworths QV, I found my solace for the day. I went through today with a sleep-inducing International Trade lecture and a revision for my Investment test tomorrow with perfunctory enthusiasm. Conversations were nearly non-existent for me, and despite the fact that I chose to be on my own—I sat at the [...]
I forgot to write about this before, but I had attended two workshops organised by RMIT some weeks ago. One was a “How to Find Part-time Jobs in Australia” workshop where I did utilise the knowledge I have gained to try looking for some jobs but I decided against it in the end—as it is [...]

30 Aug 2009The week before I surrendered my soul to a half a semester-long imprisonment in the jail of studies and assignments, I had a blast going out and enjoying myself in the city of Melbourne, aided mostly by the Melbourne board of CouchSurfing. I’d have liked to go into detail of my days, of the conversations [...]
I took a break from a day wrecked with a storm passing through Melbourne and studies, and was watching the latest 15Malaysia’s short film House, and it made me all wistful and sad, both at the film and at the final scene. Yasmin Ahmad cameo-ed in it, and I stumbled onto a piece through Linus’ [...]

24 Aug 2009Funny how in the midst of my frantic attempts to complete a research paper (which I actually am enjoying somewhat with the process) I’m allowing a leeway for myself to blog. Nothing much of actual interest really, except that I felt the need to jot this down after having a sudden realisation after I had [...]
