first post from ireland!!!

i must say.. it's been quite a while since i last blogged. quite a bit has happened and like in the last month i've been from perth to singapore then back to perth and back to singapore yet again before flying off to dublin via amsterdam..

so basically i'm in dublin right now. i've officially started my medical degree and i'm in the middle of my 3rd week of college right now.

had a day off from lectures and stuff today so i lazed around in bed for a little while before heading off to the bank to collect my atm card. seriously i must have gone to the bank like 4 times because of that stupid card! my short experience with the bank here hasn't been all that wonderful and hopefully, fingers crossed, the card problem was the last of my troubles with the bank.. so anyways after i was walking back to mercer(the place where i'm currently living) when i passed topshop and i was like yeah why not? so i walked in and did a little look around and i found this section in the store for petite people! haha how funny is that.. and the best part was they carried size 4 stuff!! which meant that the clothes actually fit me! and well, as we all know, i am fantastic at shopping and picking out stuff i like.. only difference now was that the clothes i picked out fit me!!! anyways i ended up buying this really nice navy blue jacket with a hood.. a little piece of advice.. if you ever come to dublin bring either (i) an umbrella or (ii) something with a hood.. preferably both.. and well being the genuis that i am, i didn't bring either of those and after being drenched millions of times these past few weeks i figured time to get something to cover my head! so that worked out pretty nicely. plus because i'm a student i get a 10% discount storewide!! not bad for my first shopping trip in europe..

on my way back i popped into a bookshop to look for 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins.. this is a book i've been dying to get my hands on for like weeks!! turns out stores in dublin won't get the book till january!! kind of sucks but i'll get my hands on it eventually!!!

i'm trying to talk myself into studying.. doesn't seem to be working all that much.. seriously i have like no 'ability to study'.. can't remember what's the word for it but like i am the worst person to ask to sit down and do work.. actually work i can do.. it's the whole revising even when i have no tests thing that i can't do.. oh well we'll see how much i can get down today.. have to start thinking about what to cook for dinner tonight.. i'm thinking chilli chicken cause tt's pretty fast and easy to do..

oh btw.. the new twilight trailer came out and it's freaking amazing!! like words don't even begin to descirbe it and like i got up at 6.30am on friday morning just to watch it!! for me that's saying alot!!! but omg it's good!! i am soooo freaking excited about this movie! but the one thing twilight related that i absolutely MUST have it midnight sun!!! and like that's on hold indefinately so it's driving me insane!!!! ARGH!!! and plus people in the us get to watch it on like 21st of november and i have to wait like a whole month before i get to watch it!! knowing that's it out there but i can't watch it will be so unfair!

there's like this whole list of books that i really really want to read and most of them are like sequels and i seriously hate having to wait like years in between to find out what happens next.. if anyone knows any good books please let me know.. i currently am in between books and i really would like something to read.

oh the most random thing just occured to me, my milk expires today....

here's a picture from dublin.. it's me and daddy standing outside the side entrance to RCSI.. this is the technically the main entrance because it's how we get in and out but the main main entrance is wayy coooler....
