Went to Tafe and paid for my enrollment... frikken $1200 gone just like that :( I got home then showered and when I finished showering, all of the sudden, Hoa just popped up like how the heck did he get in my house lol? He was like, let's go and I have no idea where he was taking me. Got outside in my pj's with some clothes to wear and saw Mymy, Td in the car lol. 

We went and picked up Pumba then headed to the Nook's in Jindalee to eat but sadly, it was closed so we ate Pizza Capers. I didn't eat since I don't wanna spend me money and they offer me to eat but my mind was set to not eating so I didn't :)

After having dinner, we headed back to mine and chilled before the rest of the youthies came. Had a meeting for tomorrow since we are gonna be selling ! After the meeting finished, some chilled at mine and talked. After everyone left, Hoa and I went to le Gym to get le 6-abs (Anh Son way of saying 6-packs :L )

First day back to tafe and arghhh it was so horrible ! On the way there, there was a car crash since the lights aren't working :( so we had to take a detour to tafe. Got to tafe and omg, the time table sucks ! 8-5 Monday to Thursday FML Someone kill me now ! Such a long term ! During our lunch break, Leon, Mark and I went to Corinda Tavern to eat but we took like so many detours since it was flooded around the area. 

After eating our cheap yummy food, our next stop was officeworks since Leon and I needed our stationary. Sighh back to tafe we went ! The last class, half of the class fell asleep lol. I guess everyone hasn't gone back to normal sleeping pattern lol.

Spent my night doing my Thieu Nhi Treasurer spreadsheet, Still procrastinating organizing the money for Tet :( I am just too tired and lazy to do that tonight.

Titans Cypher

----------------------------------------------------

We had a games day today at 11am at mine but barely anyone turned up so we headed out to Maccas to have lunch then bowling right after. Bowling was fun ! We gambled while playing haha. 

After bowling headed back to mine then heard news that Chi Quynh store in Fairfield was gonna get flood by the high tide so we went and grab bricks at Phap's place then off to her store. The whole Fairfield shopping centre was like a ghost town. We placed most of the tables and stuff up and place all the items in higher places. Yaay ! Good job done ! Felt good helping :) 

Came back to mine and met the rest of the Thieu Nhi group and we had our games night instead of games day lol. Played Bingo and I won more money than what I started :) Ate after then I taught the peeps who to play Werewolves and it was soo fun ! Not as fun as my Mafians group but still fun ! Then we played cards and bingo again and chilled.

Woke up super duper early to go check out the Balloons Agency with Ai-van and Toan for Thieu Nhi since the upcoming Hoi Cho Tet is coming up. We got there and we had a look around and checked our old invoice. Bought half of what we got last time since we still have balloons left over from last year.

After we finished the job, Ai-van dropped me off at home then Td came and picked me up with Vi and Vy lol. We drove all the way to Steven which is in the Valley. Got there and chilled at his apartment and had breakfast there. Bacon and toast lol. Watched the Tenis and rest for abit until we head off to China Town ! 

We kinda got lost walking there lol but in the end, we got there :) It was spiting the whole trip :( When we just go to China town, Td's thongs broke so we had to go buy new thongs lol. Such bad luck ! 

After getting thongs, we walked around and show Steven our small China town. After doing heaps and heaps of walking, we decided to eat at King of Kings ! YUMMY YUM CHA ! Sooo goooot !

After eating, we headed back to the apartment and rest for awhile. Then off to home we went. Took Vy to work and on the way home, we took a long as detour as we were finding our way home from where ever she worked at lol. We said to not use our phone gps to find the way home lol. Took us a while to find our way home from just driving around lol. 

I got home and had a small meeting with Andy's and Ai-van at mine. Had dinner with my fambam then Td, Steven and Vi came over and chilled. Mymy came and picked us up for JustSoy Cafe :) I miss that place ! Still love it like always ! After having desserts, we headed back to Mymy's for Tenis. Missed out on the final match for males :( Boo hoo ! But got to watch the finals for females :) 

After chilling, we decided to play Justdance and it was so funny when Td and I did the duet LOLOL After dancing our hearts off, we rest and played Mario Kart and omg ! So funn !

Took 4 days off work to take Steven (Thieu Nhi friends from Sydney) out :) We took him to the City and South Bank today. What we did at City was, get free parking at the Casino LOL And Me, Hoa, Thang and Td chipped in $25 each at the casino and we managed to double it and got enough money to shout everyone lunch and pool :) The 5 of us guys were in the casino for like 15 mins while we made the girls (Vy and Vi) waited outside LOL At least they got free lunch from doing nothing haha. 

We ate at beachhouse and everyone had steak :) YUM ! After eating, we went to play pool and omg ! The game was so intense as we were betting as well lol. Sadly, my team loss the bet. oh Btw, Pumba came and met up with us. 

After playing pool, we headed over to South bank by walking... wanted to let Steven experience it and see the view lol Just chilled at southbank by the rocks pool and walked around showing him our crappy Brisbane fake beach lol. 

After this outting, we all headed home then there was a Thieu Nhi meeting at my place that night. It was a meeting about fundraising at Tet fest. After the meeting, everyone chilled at mine for abit until Hoa, Td, Vy, Mymy and Vi drove up to the Valley to visit Steven at his apartment. His apartment is so cool and cheap too ! Wouldn't mind staying at a place like that :) 

We headed out for late Dinner at Harajunku Gyoza ! It was so a good Japanese restaurant :) The logo looks like Reborn (Anime) Everything in there is so cute ! The workers was so loud and interesting ! The food was goood ! I like that place now :) 

Kinda got a rough plan of where to take Steven out tomorrow :)

Little Miss Innocent

-----------------------------------------

-----------------------------------

Got a call to go to the coast with Vy, Vi and Johnnie but Pumba and I didn't really want to go. But I guess we ended up going to look after little Vi. We got there quite late since we left late.... Met up with the Sydney peeps then took them to eat at Mos Burger since they didn't have that down in Sydney yet. 

After that, we took them to Timezone while Pumba and I went exploring around Surfers. We found a new place that opened which was quite interesting. Came back to Timezone to play pool and other games then just chilled and talk afterward :)
