The mother of messes

Since the holidays have begun until only two days ago, my room looked like the catastrophes that hit New Orleans and Acheh. Pa, I think this would be to your horror. Not to worry, though, things have been sorted out(somewhat) and the mother of messes has been reduced.


This is the state of my bed. I just could not bother to tidy it up after sleeping because I am going to sleep in it again every night, anyway. Ha, ha!

This looks like a replica of my table back at home. A kind of nostalgia there where my table takes a life of its own. It even seems to come at me when I sit down at it. Thank goodness I cleared it yesterday. It looks better now.
This is probably the saddest part of the whole room and perfects the garbage dump ambiance.

Something to start with.

Hi, this is my first time posting something on my blog. My blog life has been funny so far because after customizing a blog, I did not write anything at all. Afterwards, it was reported by the blog people as a spam blog. I never knew such a thing existed until I was told to fill in a form proving my blog is not a spam.

Anyway, I will start by introducing my fellow inmates.

This happy guy is Wei Tong and he stays in Cell 110 of Carlton Melbourne Cooler(CMC). His cell is two doors down from mine. He hails from Penang and has multiple charges of Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics 1. He is really tall, probably the tallest guy in CMC




This is Siu Yuin. She stays in Cell 103. She is a really cool gal with an even cooler mother. Her mother is in on all the teenage secrets that a teenage girl normally has and that quite amazes me. This is my impression of her mother after talking to her over Skype two days ago.





This is Wei Yuet. He lives in the next cell to mine, Cell 112. He is really health conscious and has been attending the gym regularly for the past month and a half. This is an outdated picture of the dude as he has now gained some pounds in terms of muscle bulk. In the next post I will include a more recent photo of him. He is really fun to be around and is one of my close friends here at CMC. He is studying to become a builder in Uni Melb and is currently doing his third year.



This is Nicholas and he aspires to be a doctor one day. That is him there aspiring hard with Chemistry lecture notes in front of him and Pokka ammunition for the long night. He dwells in Cell 215 on the second floor. His cell is also the only cell with a mirror that has his face on it.







This is Wen Ling. She is a funny girl and always succeeds in making me laugh. She may act the bimbo but she actually has a good set of grey matter up there. I am not sure which Cell she resides in but it is one of the Cells on the 3rd floor of CMC.





Now, this girl is awesome. She lifts weights, cooks and works like the hounds are going to have her head if she does not. Her name is Jasmine a.k.a. Jass. Jass goes to Fitness First, a gym here in Melbourne city. Her father is a great cook and it seems like she is going to be one in the future. She is really fun and is a close friend of mine here. She stays in Cell 314 on the 3rd floor of CMC.


This is Xin Yin and she stays in the cell next to mine, Cell 114. She is also extremely healthy and staying next to two people who are very health conscious has somewhat influenced me to think like they do. But it has also made me become more understanding and aware of health food out there. She is fun, nice and is also one of my close friends here in CMC.



This is Jovy or Zhao Wei. She is the strangest person I have met during my servitude here. She resides in Cell 304. She lives off rabbit food everyday and is so free of fat to rival that of skinned chiken breast in Victoria Market. She eats the strangest food for all three meals a day. She once ate spiral pasta with green apples, dried assorted fuits, mayonase and eggs.

The indication of which floor we are staying in is on the first digit of the Cell number. 1, for example, is the 1st floor and so on.


It has been really nice so far. The Term 1 holidays have just ended and school has just begun.
