Dive Tioman 2009
Take a deep breath in....slowly exhale... glide gracefully through the deep blue and notice how calm and majestic the underwater world is...schools of fishes swim, unbothered by the intrusion of foreigners in their territory..bright corals juxtaposed against a sandy white sea bed..
Fantastic fantantis fantastic tioman getaway....It's been about a year since I last dived...this time round we were leisure divers so it was very relaxed and we're all starting to get really comfortable in the water..
Visibility wasn't that good at this time of year but we still managed to get up close with some aquatic wildlife.It felt really different without Joel and Monicaaround but we made new dive friends:)
for the rest of the pictures go to facebook:)

Miss Watson
I really should be studying for pysc...but after coming across Emma Watson's Burberry photoshoot for their Fall and Winter collection..I can't help but think of how gorgeous she is haha
The photos were taken by Mario Testino in Westminster, near Burberry’s headquarters. Sigh I'm in such a daydreamy mood now...

Don't you just love little brothers:)
Its 2am of the day of my sociology paper...
somewhere in cyber space..I'm talking to my youngest brother Keith
Keith: you should go and sleep..it's already 2 am at your side
Me: I still have 2 chapters to cover..I'm like surviving on coke and I bathe every 2 hours
Keith: you're mad! Pray and walk into the examination room with faith :)
Me:haha If I never study..faith alone is not enough
Keith: It is :) Go look through your bible, I think it's in Joshua..it says "God has already won the battle"
Me: Keith the bible also says you reap what you sow..and If I want to reap then I better sow
Keith : So the bible tells us both different things LOL
haha what an amazing conversation eh...but thanks for encouraging me lil' bro this post is for you!
you know you love me xoxo

Pigglet's in Uni
Congratulations, the swine flu has officially reached UQ! It was confirmed on sunday night that a student and a staff of the uni had the H1N1 virus..and they waited till like today to tell us...probably afraid half the population wouldn't turn up for the exams haha
but on the BRIGHT SIDE, you can request for a face mask and hand gel at the examinations...for someone who has frequent nose problems I really am considering asking for the face mask..don't want the people around me to think I've got swine LOL
although its highly likely that the embarrassment of looking so hideous will prevent me from concentrating on the paper itself...
to be honest this is like one of the craziest exam experience I've ever had..I sleep at 6 in the morning, wake at 3 in the afternoon..despite being rather unprepared for my socy and psyc I've managed to SIMULTANEOUSLY watch 3 japanese dramas....seriously am I good or what?
well I guess that really depends on my results...hope this swine influenza doesn't stop me from going home in 12 days!!!
totally love Lady Gaga's Paparazzi by the way..check out this fantastic acoustic version by the Lady herself ...

I am a charcoal.
The week ahead is going to be tumultuous. Right now I feel like a piece of charcoal. the road ahead is going to be stressful and pressurising. But if I can survive it, I am going to be a diamond. pray. persevere. produce.
oh and Kudos to Borat for falling butt-first into Eminem's face at the mtv awards!HAha

Some Kickass Journalists!
Today was like taking a huge baby first step towards being a real journalist!! haha Basically, all the reporting students, had to attend a 'media conference' for our final assignment. The conference was organised by Dr Hayes and the experience was just really sweet. There were tons of voice recorders, video recorders on tripod stands and flashes from cameras going off like every 5 seconds! haha
Although the conference revovled around some medical breakthrough in research about a bacteria called Salmonella, members of the floor asked questions as though they were truly concerned about the issue, or perhaps they really were considering how we have to produce stories based on the conference haha.
The 'Guest' Dr Kerr must have felt like an A-list celebrity with people requesting to take upclose pictures of him after the conference and with a huge mob of 'paparazzi' like students interviewing him and asking questions. Tanny, Shilpa and I were like seperated for the post-conference period despite attending the conference together..there were just too many enthusiastic people haha this passer-by even asked me what the hype was all about.
I guess this is really why I came to UQ to do journalism, the programme has really been impressive thus far!
