Congratulations Debora!

Hi people,
I'm in the library right now. I've been here for 10 hours straight and my butt is hurting right now. 
To be honest, I spent roughly 4 hours wandering around the internet and only spent the rest on books and lecture notes, eventhough I wasn't really focused because I was chatting with my friends most of the time.


Yesterday i went to the city after church and met up with Pinka. 
We were planning to eat in Sahara because we wanted to try something new ..
We're a bit sick of eating the same cuisine over and over again.
We were so excited but then when Pinka got there (I was just about to reach Melbourne Central Station), the restaurant was closed for renovation !
And guess what, it will re-open on the first day of my exam. Dang it.
We ended up eating Asian food again. Pffttt..
Pinka ate an individually portioned hot pot, while I ate sweet and sour pork on rice that tasted a bit off pudding for me. 
Pinka's hot pot was quiet nice though. With $12.5, you get quiet a lot of meat, veggies and fish balls, tasty broth in a pot, a bowl of rice and a drink! 
Mine was only $8.5, but I prefer having what Pinka had. Mine was such a waste of money.
I didn't even take a picture of it. I was too dissapointed!

*****
We did our forgotten-annual purikura ritual before I went home too~
I have too many purikura pictures with Pinka -_-' 
We didn't know how to decorate our purikura anymore. 
We ran out of ideas already!
I look like a monkey on some of the pictures. 
Probably because there are shadow spots on my face (or I'm just fugglyy)

 This morning I received a really cool email from Sportsgirl, saying that I won a book by Pip Lincolne , "Make Hey While the Sun Shines"
It's a book filled with 25 DIY projects which sounds pretty cool.
I will have something to do this holiday! yey!
The last time I won something from a giveaway was a Dora scooter back in elementary school, and that was a long time ago. So this was a pretty refreshing experience :) 
Can't wait til the book arrive at my house!
 
Oh, not long ago, I also won a perfume from a photography contest held by Karamel Magazine. 
Mine is the one on the right. 
It was taken at my friend's apartment in the city, with no tripod. I put my camera on the balcony's fence ..
It was pretty scary nonetheless.
I haven't received the perfume yet, but I'm just happy to be back in the game for once!
Uni life have been hectic, good thing I have my friends that always stupidly entertain me. hah.

ps. It's still pretty weird to have people calling me by my real name -_-'
 I'm used to hear people calling me "Deby", but not "Debora"

Least Expected

Ah, i haven't posted in awhile (again) .. 
Exam week is just a few days from now and to be honest, I've never been this nervous before.
Maybe it's because I've skipped a lot of lectures in the last months of the trimester.
Couldn't be bothered to go to lectures when I ended up half asleep in the lecture theater anyway.

What's on my scheduler next week ...
 
I'm taking 4 subjects this trimester which means 4 exams are waiting for me. 
The first one is Business Communication, followed by Marketing Research, Human Resource Development and Consumer Behaviour
The only good thing about my exam dates is that I will be finished 2 days before the exam week period ends, so I get 2 extra holi-days! 





I just opened my email and saw an Email from Flickr and they invited me to license one of my picture. Apparently, someone is interested to buy the picture I have on my Flickr (!!)
I was thrilled ! 
I don't know if I'm going to make money out of it but I think it's worth a try so I signed up to be a Getty Image contributor and give a license for that one photo.
There were a lot of papers to sign, with all the conditions and rules, etc. I hope I'm doing the right thing because the agreement is a legal binding document (putting my Business Law cap on) so if I did something wrong, I'm screwed o_o
Oh, and I just bought my first Flickr Pro account so I probably will start to upload photos again on my Flickr. 

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

I can't wait till exam period is over! I'm going to buy new shoes as soon as possible, and probably a few summer dresses as a special treat for myself (just another excuse to shop). 
It's really weird to I find myself wandering around ASOS's dresses section when I'm known to be the girl who wear t-shirts and jeans everyday. Haha. Well, I'm a girl anyway.. No matter how tomboy I am, there are times when I want to wear something different .

I will be going to Gold Coast with my friends too :) 
Which is really exciting! But I don't think I will wear any swimsuit,
thanks to the pre-exam stress snacking and eating galore. Hah.
And I'm definitively can't wait to go back to Indonesia for 2 months!

Marketing Research

Well actually, I'm not going to talk about nor conduct a marketing research in this post.. It's just because I have my Marketing Reseach book laying infront of me and I can't think of a good title. ppfftt

So hello :)
It's Sunday today and guess where I am? in the library
