Hey guys! How's everyone doing? I really haven't been up to much, except being busy with assignments with one on Monday being the Marketing Plan, and one due today being an Advanced Database Systems paper. It's not too bad, and they're both group assignments.
Other news:

• I'm not going to China in the winter break anymore, and will have a winter holiday now; got rejected at the interview as I don't have any teaching experience. It's a bit disappointing, but given this current economic climate, it's not surprising.
• I'm gonna have to start "nerding it up" this weekend, thanks to my exam timetable. It's gonna be a journey full of stress, and I might become a different person as a result from it. Have to keep procrastination to a minimum. ^_^"
• Last weekend, I booted up Valkyria Chronicles again and finally got past the Chapter I was stuck on. This could be my stress reliever in between studies! =D
• My parents left for a family friend's trip today, hope they have a safe and enjoyable one!

That basically wraps up what happened this fortnight, will definitely update more during the upcoming winter break!

That's pretty much how I would summarise my week. I had 2 mid semesters one before and one after my actual birthday. They weren't too bad, though the one before my bday was theory rather than practical which was kinda surprising.

After exams, I finally spent some time with my PS3, giving GRID a go and playing some more Eternal Sonata. GRID was alright once I changed to bumper view, it was just difficult to play with cockpit view because my screen is so small - you can't see the track! I'll probably give it more of a go later. Eternal Sonata is something pretty magical too - I recognised Hirano Aya's voice instantly haha.

Other than that, just cooling down and going to enjoy my weekend. :)

Finally, the holidays are among us, it's Easter! I thought I'd do a quick summary of my week leading up to it.

• Did a tax law exam - kinda nasty, with me not remembering enough cases; should've studied more, blame the job applications! (I just wanted an excuse lol)
• Went to a BDO Kendalls job interview session, it was pretty intense with individual interviews, group activities, an accounting test, and a written piece.
  
• Got rejected by Deloitte - I guess I probably should've prepared more with my examples to answers of questions, but at least I know what to do now!
• Project group for my final IT subject has been decided - so far it's alright, but we'll see how we go in terms of workload etc!

Ah man, three weeks have already past since uni started again. I'm still taking it easy, but now slowly getting into the swing of things, with mid-sems just around the corner! But lately job applications have been quite annoying in trying to prepare for, especially since they're all cluttered to about this time. Hopefully in time though, this will be all be done soon!

Other than that, I've just been planning on places to take some of my foodie friends around. Hopefully they won't be disappointed, and enjoy the many places that are on offer over here. If there are any fellow readers who are foodies too, give me a yell, and join our foodie group! :)

Well, it's another week gone by, another week til I go back home! =D The rain decided to mark my first mid term as well. So what else has happened this week?

Your weekly round-up:

• Celebrated Halloween: did it American style, which involved a parade downtown, with everyone dressed up in spooky costumes.
• Celebrated Alice's 21st Birthday! It was cool, with a dodgy version of karaoke.
  
• And in doing so, did my first attempt at cosplay with what I had. Guess who, when you check the pics!
  
• Did my first exam: exams at UQ are a lot scarier, over here its basically like a relaxed environment where it's just like class, except you're doing it
• It rained for the second time in the year - in doing so, it was pretty cold, and I think I caught a cold from it >_<

Happy Birthday Alice!

Snacks at the party!

Halloween!
