Shopping in Adelaide

When we're bored, we go to Rundle Mall. And at Rundle Mall, we shop!!

These are the price tags of what I bought today.

I can SEE u shaking your head, going "tsk tsk tsk..such a big spender...spending in aussie dollar too!"

Now, here's my receipt.

Not very clear, is it? Look closer.

TEN DOLLARS was all I paid! See how fun shopping in Adelaide is?

The 3rd and final layer: The tomatoes and herbs!!!

And.....*drumroll*.........

Bananas

We went marketing yesterday. It's something we do every Saturday. We get our stock of food for a week. From chicken, to pork, to beef, to vegetables and fruits. Anyway, we usually go on Saturday cos it's THE day that we can get some cheap stuff. The sellers will all shout "One dollar bag!! One dollar bag!!" or "Two dollars for 5 kiwis!!" or "One dollar a box!!". But yesterday, there was this guy who went....

"I've got BIG ba~na~nas~! One ninety-nine ba~na~nas!"

I don't know bout you, but me and Sarah found that HILARIOUS!

Laundry day

STUPID DRYER!!

Pub Crawl - Pharmasutra

The Pharmacy Pub Crawl was on the 23rd of March. It's this thing where everyone goes drinking! =) It started at 6.30 pm at Crown and Anchor, followed by Ballroom at 7.30 pm, then Shotz at 8.30 pm before the last spot, Mansions at 10.30 pm. There were pub crawl shirts sold at $16 each and with these shirts, we get cheaper drinks.

The front of my shirt - the theme is Pharmasutra

The back of my shirt - it say "Pharmacist do it better over-the-counter"

That night, we decided to skip the first two spots and start with Shotz at about 8.30 pm. Me, Thanu, Sarah, Adrian, Gavin, Allan and Daniel set out together. Shotz is this very dark place with a dance floor, disco ball, and some pool tables.

Next stop, Mansions! It like a few minutes away from uni and VERY happening. Raynu and Debra joined us here. We had to wait in line OUTSIDE Mansions for at LEAST an hour cos it was FULL and we could only go in when someone comes out. And waiting in line wasn't all that bad if you like taking photos and watching people, especially drunk ones! =)

Raynu at the top!

When we finally got in, it was already 12+. The bar was SO crowded and it took quite a while to get our orders in. The music wasn't too bad. At least it was better than Shotz. Maybe I'm just not used to the music here, just different from back home. Think Ghetto Heaven in Zouk! =) So, after getting our drinks, we just stood around and chatted for a while, took some photos, when suddenly, all the lights came on! It was closing time!!!! And we still had loadsa drinks! So we played the finger game. Kinda difficult to explain it here but whoever loses has to drink. That's how we finished our drinks. After that, we proceeded on our own, to Red Square on Hindley Street. Our night dance, drinks and FUN ended at about 3 am.

time flies when ur having fun!!!

It has been nothing but fun fun and fun since Good Friday!! have been enjoying myself terribly!!

Easter was a blast. No words can describe how much this Easter meant to me. it was AWESOME! I shall misuse this blog to say a huge THANK YOU to Jolvin, for helping me get on stage that Easter night and boy i have nv felt so thrilled ever! Thanks again! Sambal chicken for u anytime man!

And then i played tennis on monday. Was really a superb game, enjoyed myself tremendously..
sorry guys,keeping the details simple coz kinda malas to elaborate.. oh!! i served 3 aces, 2 of them to Sung..haha..ok okk i sound so boastful..*blush*

Then we went the beach on thursday, FINALLY a blazing hot day for the beach.. fabulous man... went with thanu, raynu, deb and pw..

went gym on wed and friday, need so tone up all the flabby muscles.. and then had life group on friday night at raynu's place.. and oh! finally got the recording of me and Sung singing "when i fall in love" horribly.. pretty memalukan, but i have to say it was a GOOD JOKE!! hahaha!

saturday when for a hike at morialta park with the life group.. where we missed the bus!!! we ran so hard after it and missed it by just a tiny bit.. ended up waiting for another hour for another bus.. was really nice there, we saw koalas! lazy bums la. tsk tsk tsk. sadly the waterfalls and streams were all dry, but i'm surely looking forward to winter coz me, ernestine, sung and whoever else who wants to go are gonna go for the 10km hike to see all 3 waterfalls! can't wait!! gonna be cold but i guess its worth it if u can see the spectacular waterfalls.. then went to harbor town with jolvin, ying qi and yea lee, and i saw this fila shoe (FILA daddy!!! FILA!! me LIKE!!) and it was white and green and boy was it gorgeous!! and 40 bucks only!!! i was so so so so so so tempted but amen! no size. yay! at least i had a reason not to buy it.hehe. then at night watched Kabhi Kushi Kabhie Gham with thanu. raynu, sheena, ernestine and siow, and later jolvin joined in as well. had watched the show like millions of times and it yet it made us tear. though not as powerfully as the first time i watched.. hehe..

sunday, went to church alone.. all my kaki were all over the place. then we had Jolvin over for lunch and literally forced him to eat with his hands claiming that 302 was an indian house. lol. siow is really good with the art of makan pakai tangan. well done babe! sooo proud of u. haha.
then we watched coach carter and later in the evening i followed jolvin, ying qi, yea lee , lynn and wee li for crabbing at henley beach. was good fun. reminded me of amma's house in tanjung bungah.. we managed to get 8 crabs only! i guess after always getting loads and loads and loads of crabs from my uncle everytime we go back to penang, 8 looked like a really tiny number to me~ yes i know i'm being greedy. hehe. by the time we got home, it was almost 4am.. shocked that i managed to stay up so late eh.. hehe

monday! after catching crabs obviously u eat them ya..haha.. so yea we went over to lynn's place and had a lil bbq.. had a great time, good fellowship, new friends, so yea it was all good. and i even got my hands on a ps2... though as most people should know, shaleeni jayamani hardly plays ps or comp games or whatsoever. and i'm a total loser at playing.haha. but hey, it was fun! should go down to gavin's place and gasak his xbox more often.hehe.

and then its today, tuesday. went to the park to study. a lil mad i know, but i just can't stand being indoors the whole day. i need to see the outside world.... wuyo.. drama siot..

okla getting lame la i know. i'll stop here. sorry if it was really boring.

i PROMISE i'll put up my share of pics soon.. blued.. *grumbles*

hehehe muaxx!!

Glenelg on a rainy day =(

After the trip to Haigh's Chocolate, the nutterteers headed home and changed into their bikinis and bathing suits, slapped on some sunblock, grabbed some food, put on our stylish sunnies and headed to the beach, Glenelg! It's about 30 minutes away by tram.

Waiting for the tram

Just as we were about two stops away from Glenelg, the skies turned dark and cloudy, then there was thunder. About 2 minutes later, it started DRIZZLING!! In the whole 2 weeks that we've been in Adelaide, it has never rained, never drizzled. It was HOT all the time! And on THE day that we decide to frollick in the sun, the sun decides to hide =(

The beach - notice the dark, cloudy sky

The choppy sea

It was windy AND cold!

The rushing waves

Needless to say, it was a VERY disappointing trip. The nutterteers headed home, feeling depressed, after merely a few hours due to the discouraging drizzle and wind.
