Missing my Melbourne days… May 31, 2008

I’ve just finished watching the stupidest ever 1 hr movie in the cinema.  Superhero.  It’s awfully late.. way past my bed time.  Was chatting with Taki on msn for a while and told him I was off to bed.  That was 40 minutes ago.    I’m still online and Facebooking at 12.42 am.  I am about to put some toothpicks to keep my eyelids open cause I just started chatting to an old friend, P, on the msn on our crazy, wild times in Melbourne way back in 2000.  Can’t believe 8 years has just flown past, just like that.  I AM OLD.

Seriously, that year has got to be the most unforgettable time of the 5 years I spent there:-

• The endless karaokes.  If I’d still maintained that lifestyle now, I’d probably look 46 and not 26;
• The ‘ah lian’ drinking games and the puking afters..that’s where my ah lian traits come from.  But no more.  I’m polished and refined now ha ha ha;
• Him giving me his silly dog cause he moved to a smaller place.  Guess what he named the Pomeranian :- ta dah…ROCKY.  I remember our dog was so stupid and we had a cat at home too, the dog was afraid of ‘Siu Fu’, our cat.  Jer-jer, my housemate then used to punish the dog by making him stand on 2 legs in the corner cause he’d (the dog-don’t even try to imagine how he did that) used to do his business all over our little apartment ;
• A group of us just hanging out at his place doing absolutely nothing.  Or you can let your mind wander and imagine if we really did do some hanky panky stuff.  I mean come on a group of students … surely you can’t just hang out, chill and do nothing right?;
• Working part time together.  My first attempt at earning my own money waitering;
• Me being absolutely banana then, learning the Taiwanese way of speaking mandarin.  See Sean, no need pay money to goto Shanghai drink beer study chinese.  Just goto karaoke more often, can do lah

I really do miss those carefree, worry free about money days.  Our only duty then was to study, get the assignments in on time and pass everything.  Ahh….those uni days.  If only we could turn back time…….I’d give anything to go back to those days!
