long time no xanga!

hows everyone goin?

today, my cousin and his family went back to hk, after staying with us for around a week

here we are =)

cute huh? hahaha

nyway, my cousin and his family are awesum- they love star gazing and since in hk- the sky aint' all that great ( from pollution) coming to Australia meant they could spend endless hours gazing up at our sky, and taking amazing pictures of galaxies and constellations etc. taught me how to identify stars too- anyone interested? i can pinpoint a few.. kinda.. lol- no guarantee:p Also, mai uncle's a doctor back in hk, so i ask him if he's seen people with 6 + fingers each hand- and he says he sees it all the time =O- as a radiographer later on- i would so love to xray stuff like that- in a way, radiography is like photography- sounds fun =) can't wait! speaking of which- clinicals are coming up- 3rd week of hols i'm going down ryde hospital for a week ( not as a patient haha) but to learn how radiographers acutalli go about doing their job- kinda excited=) hahah- before, i didnt even noe if this course was right for me but man- once it started, i felt i was right where i should be =)

what else- oh- HAPPY 18th JOO  finally of age! Being young aint' all that bad tho- haha- being 18 now doesn't mean we cant' go shopping at officeworks for sharpie highlighters anymore rite?  haha

speaking of which, i was almost not allowed into an rsl club yesterday- me, michael, zhi wen, xubin and daniel ( radiography buddies) decided to go  eat some pho after uni, so i could bum away 2 hrs b4 i had to take my driving lesson- so we get there- then lady asks us for ID- so we show her- michael, zhi wehn and dan passes, but when she sees mine- kinda stops a bit- then looks a bit- then looks back and goes to me " you can't come in" O.O so we get a bit confused- y can't i go in? ( michael says i look sus --" lol)  meanwhile- xubin, cos he's an international student, onli has his uni card, which has no proof of age, so the situation becomes a bit chaotic, everyones' a bit confused hahaha- so in amidst all this- i keep asking her " y can't i go in? whats wrong?" and the lady is like " you need a parent/ guardian with you" - and i was like * what? i'm 18!!!*-_-" sif not check mai date of birth properly *grumpy* - nyway- after all that, i'm finally allowed in, and xubin after getting a member to sign for him- we were all able to go through=) and thank goodness for their large bowls of pho to make up for it! =)

after a satisfying meal- we part and i go take mai driving lesson- having not gone with my instructor for a drive for a while- i've gotten a bit sloppy and picked up some lazy habits ( haha naturally)- but after a few turns, back to where i shoudl be=) so drove around a bit- fixed up mai TERRIBLE parking =) haha

so that's where i'm at after a few weeks of no xanga-ing- haha

keeping u guys updated,
