Mickey receives a radio for his birthday.

Yesterday I went on a shopping spree. I recently got another pay rise ($_$) and my parents took me out, and they let me spend, spend and spend ;D. However, it is all for school. Pens, pencils, books, loose leaf pages, planner etc, etc. I basically stocked up on everything, which means I don't have an excuse to go out sometime during my HSC to shop for supplies. Hahaha. Thinking so far into the future. Good job Belle.



I think I spent alot of time at Birrkenhead Point just browsing through the HUGE collection of printed cards. There was a disney section. SO HUGE. Prints, paintings, scenes from the disney movies and ORIGINAL DRAFT PRINTS! I got an original draft print of goofy. It's called "Original story sketch of Goofy from 'How To Swim' 1942" Hehehe. So awesome. The second card I bought is called "Mickey receives a radio for his birthday" ... a birthday card :) I like the colours in this card. :D



These photos were taken with the webcam. I cbb to look for my samsung cable to connect the camera to the comp. D: Besides, I think the webcam is of adequate quality.








Actually, they look huge. D: Too see the full pic, you'll have to click on it.



Nothing much to report I guess... School's going to start soon *dread*- I need to finish reading my books D:


OH! Almost forgot. :D


We (family) had dinner with another family last night. We had a freaking raw & moving lobster. Luckily for me, I don't lose my apetite when I see something moving on the dinner table, unfortunately, I can't say the same for my sister. She says she lost and will she had to eat when my dad turned the lobster dish so that the head of the lobster was facing her. Its eyes were still twitching and it was sort of moving its legs. Hahaha. The girl from the other family, Maggie was also sort of freaked out. But she liked the raw lobster. I did. The texture was so peculiar. I thought a lobster's raw insides would be all gross and slimy BUT NO! I WAS WRONG. IT WAS LOVELY. I WILL HAVE I AGAIN.


Omg, I tell you what is not lovely? LOBSTER BRAIN ! It tastes SO FISHY ! D: So gross. No amount of coke/tea/rice/other dish could get rid of that stupid fishy taste in my mouth. D:


Oh before I go on, I'd like to mention that we had dinner with a SHANG family. My dad knew them in college in Shanghai or something. So they kept speaking Shang D: So my mum, sister and I were sitting at the table half clueless to what they were talking about D: What's worse was that we knew they were talking about us D:


Anyway, they ordered alot of stuff including: Raw and cooked lobster (apparently that cost alot :( such a waste of moneeeyyy), pigeon (HAHA Kelly gets freaked out when she sees the head), Fokkien Rice or something (fook geen chow meen), some dish with black moss ("fa cai" or "fat choi") and dried-then-undried-oyster, something with meat in it..


Bleeh. The portions were HUGE. The Wu family didn't eat much at all. D: Man, it was quite terrible sitting at the table with them. Because they didn't eat much at all! When they were eating fruits, I was still finishing off the rest of the plates (xP I liked the left over stuff). :( When they stopped eating, I was still finishing the main course off D: When I was eating dessert (lol I had 2 bowls hehe..) the adults were just conversing happily. When I finished my dessert, they just shoved the fruit plate at me and told me to finish it.



:O
Bin, much?



So sleepy atm. I think I like working in the arvos better. D: WHY DID I CHOOSE MORNINGS!
