It's only a Tuesday afternoon

I realised I did not make a single post in December. Not much happened in December except that it was quite hectic with work. Up until the 12th of December, I was working 5 days a week. It was meant to be 6 but my boss at the tuition centre said there was a low student count at St Albans campus on Sunday so I didn't have to work. So I worked progressively 4-5 days a week in December. Good money but less time to spend with friends. There was less outings too even though we were all on holidays (referring to the girls).
There were a few parties that I attended to over the course of December. There was my work (chemist) xmas party, xmas eve @ CQ, Murphy's drink up, Dennis' drink up and yeah. All fun and a lot of alcohol consumed. Yes, very terrible of me, I know ><.
So the Xmas party for my work place was held at my boss' parent's house. Long story behind it all but I found out that one of my friend's whom I work with is dating my boss' brother. So she found it awkward hanging out at the house. Hahaha. We got gifts as well. Containing a lot of products from the shop. (Sunscreen, Face cream, Moisturiser, Vicks vapour drops and Ferrero rochers). We also had random raffle draws, where he ALSO had 'prizes' that came from his shop.
1st prize: blood pressure monitor, 2nd & 3rd prize: glucose monitor. Then he had those "luck of the draw" thing where everyone chooses an envelope and two of them contained $50, and the others contained $5. Sarah and Trang ended up getting them. Finally, he gave out $500 each to his staff of the year. The other pharmacist clearly had it -_-" .. and 3 other people got it as well. The rest of the night he left his guest to sit in a room and talk among themselves. Drink wine and champagne. LOL.
Xmas Eve @ CQ .. That was a not-so-eventful night. My night played out like this. For some reason I really wanted to go clubbing and I ended up going with Trang and her friends. I wounded up at her house, forgot my ID, so her brother drove me home to get it. We went to pick up his friends then back to their house. Trang and I stayed at her house til her friends came and we went to some other house. While at the other house, we waited for more people and the cab. When the cab came, we headed off to the city. We JUST got out of St Albans, only to realise that two guys forgot their wallets/id. We back to Cairnlea/St Albans for IDs then headed off to the city. $40 of our cab money was just driving around Cairnlea/St Albans. LOL. We pre-drank in the taxi and arrived at CQ. We got in pretty quickly only to find another queue. There was the whole issue with prepaid tickets and using guestlists. Rah rah rah. The venue was nice, but it was so packed with people and internationals, we kept getting lost. It was an alright night but I came home feeling not-so-tipsy at all which sucked. Anyway, we got out of the venue asap when we heard fights were happening. We were getting our jackets when they started throwing bottles down the stairs. I realised, this is possibly the reason why my mother does not want me going nightclubs. (Put off clubbing) ...
Boxing day: Murphy's drink up was pretty fun. Never seen Murphy so intoxicated in his life. (Photos on my FB and description about what he's like when intoxicated. It was good to D&M with some of the girls. But it felt like something was missing ...
The week dragged on and it was already New Years Eve. I planned a NYE dinner with some close friends but it all failed. Me, the host, did not even attend. That's terrible, I know. Furthermore, the weather was so bad. Hot and muggy all day, then dusty winds, thunderstorms and heavy rainful to end the night. My night was pretty good, despite the weather and not seeing the girls. I went to my mate's house for some dinner and drinks. The bf was driving and heading to QLD in the morning so he made me drink all his drinks. Pretty fun. Just before 12, we went out to this hill and climbed up on the playground thingy and watched the fireworks. Since we were in Footscray it was close to the city anyway. We popped some champage, hugged everyone went inside to dry off because we were soaked to the core. I'm surprised I did not get sick. Well we then partied some more and I went home. That night bf gave me my xmas present. He got me a 1TB hard drive. It's awesome :)

Despite not seeing the girls on NYE, I saw them the following Saturday because it was Jacky's bday. Jacky is Shirley's bf, who lives in Adelaide. Yeah long distance relationships. Anyway, we finally went to Shabu again. The place I've been craving for so long. I just love the food there and the atmosphere. Great fun! We went karaoke afterwards. I haven't karaoke'd with the girls for so long.
So 2009 has ended and it's 2010 now. We're in DAY 12 already. I wonder what happened to those 12 days, seriously. Yesterday was Helen Nguyen's birthday! We had an awesome night talking about some scary stuff and watching a horror movie. I got really scared AFTER the movie because Helen's house was so dark. Also, the girl's were talking about haunted houses and stories that are situated near my house. Errr ... yeah. We had a good d&m again. It was getting late, so we went home.

Anyway, there's like about 1month and a half to go until uni starts again. I swear that time will fly and uni will start. Second year will be hectic as. I am looking forward to it because my subjects sound freaking awesome. Neuro this, neuro that .. mmm brain :) Hahaha. But I'm not looking forward to those annoying uni books. Worst than VCE. Speaking of VCE I found out that my friend from primary school (Jessica Wescott) got DUX of Marian 2009. Super proud of her :) Good Aussie girl I swear. Well compared to us OH EIGHT girls, we're like the DUD year. HAHAHA but we were bloody awesomeeeeee :)

Anywho, I think this is it from me.
Ciao
