the past week

Posted by meihui at 03:15 PM on October 25, 2009.

monday.
the usual yumcha at max brenners. still tired from last week because sunday's supposed to be my recovery day but tracy made me drink dicken's beer last night just so it would finish faster making it able for her to go back to the hotel earlier..so my sunday recovery/detox day was ruined. *GLARE. though of course i don't mind la haha. so i came home for a nap..but before even 15 minutes into it my friend ronald called saying "we're at rooftop bar come quick!" i say "drinks? no thanks..it's my belated recovery day..not drinking today" he says "dinner?" i say "yeah dinner sounds good..come pick me up when you're done with rooftop" he says "no you come here..i promise i won't force you to drink..but everyone is here..so..come!" so i dragged my ass to rooftop..where guess what? i got forced to drink T.T sigh friends and their empty promises these days..

tuesday.
we checked the weather forecast yesterday which said it was going to be 26 degrees today! so to the beach it is )) seriously melbourne has been deprived of sunlight/heat for way too long. it's halfway through spring (my favourite season!) but it's still generally around 10 to 15 degrees i think rawr. and so..lynn (my housemate) dragged me out of bed in the morning. and we went for dimsum as brunch! it's been SOOOO long since i last went for dimsum. like a year probably..seriously. so it was really good then we took a train to altona..this is also the first time i'm going out of the city after soooo long..come to think of it i've never been out of the city except chadstone and boxhill heh. so yeah..spent the evening just lying down on the sand enjoying the weather got hungry so we headed over to a little cafe near the beach for food..i had ceaser salad and a beer. i heart ceaser salad and i heart beer so yay! we eventually got tired so we headed back to the city. went home for a shower and out again to watch final destination in 3D..i hate 3D movies bleh the glasses give me migrains. plus the movie wasn't even good so..rawr.

wednesday.
*phone ringing* *presses pillow against ears* *phone doesn't stop ringing* finally picked up and got dragged out to lunch. my friend didn't even allow me to shower because he knows i'll take at least 30 minutes so..yeah i didn't even get to shower! rawr. it was nice and sunny again today so i didn't mind a bit accompanied him for lunch and lied down on the grass in front of the state library lol. then met up with lynn and some others at mr tulk for the usual yumcha session..but it was nice and sunny so we had beers instead of coffee but haih just when i got all settled and comfy it was time for me to leave for work oh wells. work was the usual.

thursday.
SUNNY AGAIN! got dragged out of bed 9ish omg. this time to st kilda beach! we had awesome lunch of fresh oysters/chilli mussels/fish and chips/lamb chops at beachcomber..this cafe situated right by the beach! so good. then we took a long walk along the beach..and finally settled at another cafe for desserts. and beer of course. then back to the city..and off to work again.

friday.
weather was just alright today. sunny but cold wind so i just lazed around at home till it was time for work. friday night..quite busy la. but fun nonetheless..and after-work drinks ))

saturday.
sunny! )) planned on going to rooftop bar to just sit under the sun but omg the place was SO packed! grr. so we walked down all the way to federation square..and settled for brunch at timeout. ceaser salad, fat chips, and a mojito. i craved beer so badly but refrained myself due to the ever bulging beer belly that i have then we went for a little shopping after that! just a little la..i'm dead broke. lately i've been spending way more on food and almost nothing on shopping..which is a good thing i guess *shrug. then off to work as usual.

and as usual..saturday nights with the silk road crew is awesome. considering i already had a few shots while i was working..i was all ready for the after-work drinks! so the dj stopped spinning and the lights were turned on..and the people were leaving and soon the doors were shut. and that's when we brought on the beers and blasted the music tonight there was even cake! i think it was a belated birthday cake for my manager jerry..i think. anyway my friend shane's favourite song started playing and he got all excited and started pole dancing and slowly..stripping! hahah not everything off la but it was damnnnnnnnn funny! we were all choking in laughters. went on till the bar manager was like.."okay enough for tonight..seriously we're out of tap asahi" *POUTTTT. so we decided to go for supper..three cars full of drunk noisy people headed over to china bar..it was probably 5ish in the morning already. the car i was in had four people in the backseat..which is illegal in australia. i was sitting on someone's lap when we saw a police car ahead and so i had to curl myself up and hide at like..er..the feet area? i felt like i was five years old all over again because really my parents always made me do that when i was a kid lol. so china bar..ah. it's called china bar but it's not actually a bar..it's just like a chinese fast food restaurant. we ordered ten beers. then my friend ash who was the last to arrive (because he was drunk so he walked really slow and went to pee etc) made the grand-est entrance ever by coming in and announcing realllllly loudly "OKAY BEFORE WE START WITH THE FOOD..SHOTS ANYONE? HMMMMMM HOW MANY OF US ARE THERE? ONE..TWO..THREE..EH? I LOST COUNT. WHATEVER. WHAT SHOTS DO YOU GUYS WANT? WET PUSSY OKAY OKAY?!" wet pussy is really a name of a shot la but all of us immediately covered our faces and went "oh noooooooooooooooo". especially the few of us who are chinese and actually knew what was going on..basically the aussies (ash is aussie) thought that we were at a bar lol. we were damn malu but five seconds later all of us just burst out laughing because we were all pretty drunk as well and it was kindaa funny la heh but damn malu with all the people at the other tables staring at us as if we were retarded. it didn't even stop there..we told ash this is a restaurant and not a bar..he goes "okay i know i know" then calls for the waitress and goes "okay this place sucks because you don't have shots..well just get me a vodka cranberry" SWT we all just burst out laughing all over again -.- finally got home at 7ish.

sunday.
my recovery day lazed around at home the whole day drinking nothing but green tea..and went for dinner at the restaurant downstairs. and here i am now having spaghetti bolognese for supper.

so that was my week. i'd say it was a really good week because the weather this week has been exceptionally awesome! it better stay like that..it's supposed to be spring!

after so long!

Posted by meihui at 04:06 PM on October 11, 2009.

oh it's been soooo long. where should i even start? past few weeks/months have been..mundane. same routine lifestyle; bum around on mondays and tuesdays, work and get drunk (free drinks how could i say no?) from wednesday to saturday and recover on sundays. i'd say everything is going good

jack came over from adelaide to celebrate his early 21st here about two weeks back. and carol came over from brissy as well! so i had a good weekend..bringing them around etc. well it mostly involved just shopping..collins street everyday sometimes even twice a day pfft. and oh. the clubbing at lavish. birthday boy wasn't even drunk..but me? i couldn't remember how we got back home from the club. carol told me we walked. i told her that's just impossible..lavish is in a whole different suburb. but yeah..photos proved i was wrong. anything is possible..especially when you're drunk omg.

next weekend was the asian night at silk road (where i work) so..yeah. exhausting but good i guess. everyone came! everyone got drunk without me some random broke a glass..i picked it up and stabbed myself understaffed so i was doing about ten things at the same time but when it was all over and the drinks started.. ))

shit i think i sound like an alcoholic. which i'd say i'm not because i'm not addicted to it..i just like it? *shrug.

so anyway..last night! godskitchen 2009! it's a huge rave and apparently a must-go if you're in melbourne..according to a certain someone named calvin teoh. so when the tickets were released about six months ago i was going to get them but none of my friends wanted to go with me..so i didn't get them. and just three days before the event my other friends started talking about it making me desperate to go..but tickets were sold out so haih. had to ask around and blah and finally managed to get the tickets for double the price of what i would've paid if i had bought it six months ago rawr! and that's not even the worst part. i had to work..but i assumed i could get off work at about midnight. the thing goes from 10.00pm to 7.00am so midnight would be the perfect time to go anyway. but at midnight guess what we were slammedddd at work. no prizes for guessing what my manager said when i asked if i could sign off haih. had to stay at work till 1ish..every minute that passed from midnight got me more and more annoyed with work so i helped myself at the bar finally managed to get there at 2ish..completely tipsy and just in time for cosmic gate come to think of it it wasn't too bad at all..if i had finished work early like i had planned then i would've spent so much on drinks at godskitchen. so yeah. i practically didn't spend anything that night..just two bottles of mineral water. heh ))

tracy will be in melbourne this weekend so i foresee another exhausting weekend yay ))
