Holidays begin~!
Exams are finally finished and even then there are still so many things to do! So I have a super huge post full of (not so) pretty pictures :)
I got my glasses done (about time too!). They're just cheap frames I bought while I was in China and just had prescription lenses put in. They make me look smart right?
I've also been eating a lot of sweet potatoes during exam period. I love sweet potatoes so much but the prices are rising so I've been eating less of them.
I found the creme caramel puddings at the supermarket. I loved these as a little kid and it's been YEARS since I've had one.
After my exams were done, my parents took me to La Porchetta for dinner. It was a new branch that had opened recently around my area. I ordered a parmagiana but I didn't realise how big it was until it got to the table!
For my dad's birthday I bought him a cake from David Jones. Chocolate Hazelnut! The cake is super rich so eating too much of it would make you feel sick.
Last week I met up with Cute guy for coffee and whatnot. If you follow my Tumblr then you'll know who I'm talking about. We went to Koko Black and I ordered a Iced Mocha. Unfortunately, that day I was feeling sick and I didn't really have the appetite to have chocolate. So I only drank a little and left the rest untouched.
That day I also met up with a couple of high school friends for some late night karaoke. Plenty of strangers there too, but after a few drinks things weren't so awkward.
Yesterday I caught up with a old friend of mine for frozen yoghurt :) I also felt like eating macarons so I bought some. The cute guy at the Cupcake Family convinced me to buy 6 for $10. Haha~!
I also lost my wallet a week ago so I had to buy a new one to replace it. It's a cheap wallet from Strandbags to tide me over until I can afford a Miu Miu one. Teehee.
Today, I bought some new makeup and put a order on ebay for a 120 palette. The SA at the Dior counter was so lovely that I bought a lipstick as well as the foundation. It's called Rock n Roll (720) ^^
I also had my hair cut short(er). The hairdresser cut my fringe WAY too short so now I have to pin it up otherwise it looks strange :(
OKAY THAT'S THE LAST MONTH OR SO RECAPPED :D
Next post will be after Anime Camp~!

Pho me up.
Today my mum had to go get a blood test. She's been unwell lately so she went to get a blood test to check for anything abnormal.
Afterwards, we went to eat Pho at Richmond. There's this one restaurant that I really like eating at, I'm not sure what it's called but their menu is pretty simple.
My Beef Combination Special!
Jackfruit smoothie ^^
I went shopping with my mum and it felt so good to be able to do something like that. I can't really remember when I went shopping with her.
I bought a few things because like my mum, I like spending money.
Artbox was having a 50% off sale so I picked up a few cute things hehe :3 Pretty pens ^^
And a new mascara... cause I like mascaras and the Great Lash was dry and crappy :(
I also bought a storage container for my makeup. Unfortunately, it's not big enough for my makeup. I'm pretty sure I'll need a bigger one once I put the big fat order for the NYX makeup.
My parents were so cute today while shopping for a juicer. My mum suddenly wanted to make juice so we went and bought a juicer. And we talked about how we don't have a toaster. My parents were looking at toasters and found this:
And said "Oh look! That would be really good!" and started discussing whether they should buy it.
I had to point out that it was just a toaster that someone had knocked over before they would leave it.
Work was super stressful. I kept thinking about my exams and how unprepared I feel. It affected the way I worked. It felt like I had to finish everything quickly. I also helped out at the Bakery, serving pies and cakes. It was definitely a nice change, learning about how things work in another area at work. But trying to construct the cake boxes was stressful because I'm not very good at that kind of stuff. I like working in the Bakery. Plus cute guys seem to like cakes more than they like salad.

Thai Buffet~!
Tonight I went to Ing Doi for dinner with my family :) Ing Doi is a Thai restaurant that has a buffet menu! You can basically order as much as you want as long as you can finish it all.
I ordered a few things and they were all so yummy!
Grilled Honey and Soy Pork
Above Picture: Grilled Salmon Salad
Below Picture: Duck Curry (Back Left), Roti (Front Left), Seafood Salad (Right)
Above: White Ice Tea
Below: Strawberry and Yogurt Sorbet with Fruit
The duck curry was by far my favourite of all the dishes we ordered. The curry was so delicious and you can dip roti into the curry which is so good!
I really do recommend visiting Ing Doi if you like Thai food. If you're a Thai noob like me, it's a great way to experience Thai food for the first time. It's in Collingwood on Victoria Parade if you're interested. I suggest you book if you plan on going because the restaurant is quite small and there aren't very many tables.
I've decided to keep my posts from now on one topic focused. I'm going to be using labels for my posts so it's going to be easier for you to find posts with topics you like reading about! As soon as my ebay package comes in, I'll do my little shopping haul!
