One of the highlights for me in Sydney was the Opera House. Yup, I know, I know, very touristy thing to do. A day was dedicated for the Opera House. Started off with a tour of the Opera House, where we were brought into the different theatres, shown videos and guided talks. What impressed me was the Concert Hall, because of its massive size and ( Read more... )

After Melbourne, our next stop was Canberra. Driving from Melbourne to Canberra is a bad idea, unless you have more than 2 people. It took us about 8 hours to drive, and even taking turns to drive, we were really tired when we reached Canberra. There was also a dip in temperature as compared to Melbourne. Canberra was really like winter; it was f-r ( Read more... )

A continuation from the previous entry, more of Melbourne. I will try not to type too many things and provide more pictures instead (by request).

Queen Victoria Market was one of our destinations as well, but there wasn't much there because it was somewhat similar to Hobart's Salamanca Market, but on a much larger scale. Most of the things were ( Read more... )

Well well well, TGAuRT wasn't THAT much of a road trip at the end due to my Jet Star Brisbane - Hobart flight cancellation and our plans had to be modified, but nevertheless, it was a FANTABULOUS (fantastic + fabulous) 21-day Eastern Australian trip with YY. Yesterday, 12 Jul, concludes the end of our trip, and hopefully more wonderful road trips ( Read more... )

Midway through my trip and am currently in Sydney. Had to change some plans because of JetStar's flight cancellation from Brisbane to Hobart. I have to fly back from Gold Coast via Melbourne to Hobart instead, which really throws all plans for Queensland out of the window. We decided to stay for the whole 6 nights in Gold Coast instead, skipping ( Read more... )

As the blog title suggest, I am really bored! It is just so weird to suddenly not have anything to do because I have had an extremely busy semester, coupled with highly stressful exam preparation for my 2 papers. The day after my Tuesday paper, I went for a haircut down town. It was a pamper session at Sfumato. A massage while washing my hair, ( Read more... )

Yay! Finally, the exams are over... Phew! Semester 1 2008 flew by so quickly. When it was the final week of semester, it felt like school has only just begun. Now that the exams are over, there is this empty feeling because I am so used to being bogged down with loads of work. It's only 4 more days to the start of The Great Australian Road Trip and ( Read more... )

After an agonising wait, IS Project Management exam is over! It was a piece of cake and the questions which I spotted came out. So glad! Being proactive and studying smart definitely allowed me to be ahead of the pack. Teaching some of my classmates helped as well, because I am forced to remember things, and reinforces the information that I have ( Read more... )

Out of the 3 teams I had to work with this semester, this team was by far my favourite of them all. Today concludes the unit KXI303 with our final presentation of our ICT Strategic Plan to Myriax. Myriax had given us students a wonderful opportunity to apply what we had learnt during the first half of the semester in an almost real life situation; ( Read more... )

A very productive study day today albeit the dryness of the subject. Almost covered everything from ISPM except for Execution Stage, Closing Stage and some diagrams. A quarter more of ISPM to go. Hope to finish up everything on ISPM tomorrow so that I move on with my OB revision. :)

There were not many choices of operas/musicals/concerts to choose ( Read more... )
