EGG DROP SOUP

Now I'm totally confused with blogger's new layout. pfftt..

Okay, I don't think people read my blog,
 but I feel bad for not being able to keep up the promise I made to myself about blogging. 
I've been struggling with my assignments all week long (hah. what an excuse)
But really, assignments are such a pain in the %*#.
I'm half way done with my Strategic Human Resource Management assignment, 
which is a 3000 word essay, 
but my I haven't even started on my 2500 word essay for Organisational Behaviour. 
And they're both due next week *palmface

--------

By the way, some of my friends graduated last week
I didn't come to their graduation ceremony at Geelong and I felt really sad :'( 
I felt kinda stupid, actually. 
I had 3 classes that day and I've been skipping those classes to many times so I decided to went to those classes 
(but ended up half asleep in class anyway. boohoo)

That's me, holding up some drawings that I made. 
Those are (supposed to be) my friends' faces.
My drawing skill is getting worse each day. pfft.
I need to draw more. 


------------------

Melbourne is getting colder, people!
I hate winter. 
I'm more into summer.
We have tons of festivals on summer, so it's a lot of fun!
I hate that my skin gets really dry on winter, and my lips get chapped easily. 
And I have a problem with coats because I only have like.. 2 ?
And my outfit gets really boring and repetitive because of that!
Oh well..
I just hope this winter will not suck. 

Egg drop soup!
Since winter is coming, I feel like eating a bowl of soup for dinner..everyday.
hmm..
Anyone have a good and easy soup recipes?

Ok. I'm going to sleep now. 
I'll probably blog tomorrow..
If something interesting happen. ha!

Baked Eggs and Fierce Meerkats *heavy pictures!

HELLO!
I did what I promised myself yesterday, to blog about today!

Today I went out for brunch with my friend and her mom who's visiting on Easter break.
We went to Hardware Societe, a cute brunch spot in the city.
I'm sure Melbournians are familiar with this place already.
I've heard a lot of good comments about Hardware Societe and I've walked pass this restaurant quiet a few times but didn't get a chance to actually eat there til today!
I was pretty excited to finally sat down and ate there.

my friend and her mom. Don't they look like twins?
i have weird smile
the busy baristas

I ordered their famous baked eggs with chorizo, while my friend ordered their smoked salmon-something (it's like a sandwich with smoked salmon and sunny side up) and her mom ordered baked eggs with mushroom.
I was skeptical at first about my dish because personally, I loath runny yolks.
I can't even eat those beautiful poached eggs that are usually the main attraction on every single menu on every brunch spot here in Melbourne. meh.
But I ordered it anyway.

The presentation was very appealing!
I love how they use a wooden board on as a tray for the tiny casserole pot and the baguette slices.
Then came the moment when I poked the eggs and yes, the yolk was runny.
I was a bit overwhelmed but decided to man up and ate it.
To my surprise, I loved every single bite of it!
Well of course, I stirred the egg a little bit so that the residual heat cooked the egg a bit more, but I have nothing to complain about!
Eating it with the baguette makes it even better. Hhmmm..
baked eggs with chorizo and tomatoes, nom.

After that, we went to Melbourne Zoo and turned our tourist modes on.
A lot of the animals were taking their nap so it was a bit tricky to find them.


This dude was hilarious. I felt kinda sad for him though. It was 27 degrees today!
So sunny!


My favourite ! Such a fierce pose. I think the meerkats were actually enjoying the attention, you know.
awwwwhhhh~


That awkward moment when turtles have better love story than you.




taaaa tahenyaaa wawawiii jeewayaaaa ~
went all 'Lion King-ish' with this plushie



dat ass.

So tired from all the walking, not to mention the heat ! Oh boy.
Uni will resume tomorrow. I am not ready for it!!!!

dun dun dun

The urge to blog strikes back.
Oh God. Why am I so bad at writing ?
I can't seem to find a good time to write, heck.. I can't find anything interesting to write!
If you're wondering, I did just import my old blog here -_-'

I have a lot of things to share .. Not that they're that important.. But hey, at least I'm writing something :)

1. I've cut my hair short (that's like.. 3 months ago) , and planning to keep it short for awhile
Me at the back, with my crazy ass friend.

2. I gained a few pounds, lose some, and then gained even more

3. I got my first studio work done for a friend's business. Check out NaveCase , still have to do a lot of practice though.

4. I finally bought a Macbook Pro, I named him (yes, it's a HE) Vincent. Ha!

5. I finally experienced summer in Melbourne! I loved it! It's pretty cool with all the great events and festivals that they had here. Went to several night markets, open air cinema, moomba fest, tons of bbq parties, and did a lot of laying around on the grass (something you definetely can't do in Jakarta!)

6. I got a new job at a cafe in Chadstone , and it's going well :)

7. Not trying to be a drama queen but I fell out of love twice and decided not to like anyone anymore for the time being.

8. Met Mychonny !


I think that's all for this post. I'm going to write more from now on!
