long time no see!

ok just a quick update of what i've been up to since i haven't updated in more than a week

didn't do much monday - wednesday

my finance lectures are SOOOOOOOOOOO boring - i wanted to die

Thursday was Foundation Day and there was a party at Roundhouse so the night included me writing up part of my marketing group proj, pre-drinking (i didn't drink that much...like maybe 7 sips of stuff lol), and partaying
and my friend was pretty drunk and she wanted to eat fries so we went to McDonalds (apparently people call it Mackers...which i think sounds weird haha)

oh yea, earlier on in the day i also met up with my partner for our marketing assignment and we went to the law building/library - look how nice it is!

anyways on to Friday!
went out with Aude (my french friend) and met up with her french friend

Aude also gave me a carambar - french candy
interesting tidbit: when Melwenn (her friend) greeted me, she greeted me in french manners of a kiss on each cheek - kinda took me by surprise but still cool haha

anyways - we headed out to the University of Sydney and you walk through this gorgeous park on the way there
and then this part of the campus (the quadrangle) looks a bit like harry potter! so pretty =) and it was a beautiful day too
then we went to Gloria Jeans and we shared this choco cake

i didn't plan on going anywhere else, but as you know, there's always something going on if you live in IH so a few other friends were going to Chinatown so i decided to go with
it was fun even if the night market basically consisted of this one street haha i did buy $5 shoes though - they're plastic and smelly but i figure why not, it's just an extra pair of shoes that i can wear and throw away later

Saturday - i was going to do homework but i ate lunch and chatted with people until like 2 and once again, i found out people were going to see the sunset at La Perouse so once again i decided to go with

it was gorgeous =)
maybe not the prettiest picture but whatevs - i took like a million lol

THEN after that went back to IH to eat dinner - after dinner, me and a couple of korean girls made shin ramyun lol
and then we proceeded to have game night - we played some game where you build trains across america (i have no idea what the name of it is), uno and then got more people to play mafia (...or killer - whatever you want to call it)
ended up sleeping at almost 4 lol

Sunday was the Aroma Festival at The Rocks!! pictures are up on fb and it was basically a lot of booths with food to buy/try - got a couple of samples which was nice =)
there were A LOT of people though..kinda reminded me of the food truck festival except the lines weren't as long

yesterday i went to Oporto (burger place) to eat lunch with Lynnhere bes my chicken burger - which actually tasted better than it looks in this picture

and since i had a coupon, i got a free coffee bun from Papa Rotti =)
i bought some hot milk tea from Chatime too so tea + coffee bun = awesomeness

then in the afternoon there was a study abroad welcome reception so some IH people and i went to eat free food and mingle (a spanish friend of mine learned this word and he loves it lol)

then after dinner i got registered for Pottermore!! excited =) lots of mixups going on though because of multiple sign ups haha
after that i just did homework for the rest of the night cause i really needed to finish some book problems haha

random note: i swear, some profs here are like the worst profs i have ever had - my microeconomics 2 prof doesn't teach very well at all and my finance prof last week actually forgot what he was doing or what the stuff on his slides meant...lol (his excuse was he didn't have lunch)
but yea - sucks that the two classes that are mandatory for me are my most boring/hardest classes


and now i will see you some other day! watching bridesmaids tonight with some friends =)
