Graduation: Take 2!
Greetings!
Today I travelled to UNSW for the graduation of my brother. And gosh we nearly missed it by a couple of minutes - go family time management. The graduation started at 2:30 and you're supposed to be seated by 2:15, although admittedly there's a lot of speeches and boring spongy stuff before the actual award presentations.
Anyway, we left the house at 2:00... and had half an hour to get from Epping area to Randwick - go figure. Arrived on campus at 2:45, quick check of map and we learn that the lecture theatre is on the other side of the campus - *groans*.
UNSW campus is quite large and it takes a good 15 minutes to walk at a leisurely pace from one side to another (my mum was wearing heels so I didn't want to kill her before we reached the graduation)
We inconspicously snuck at the back of the lecture theatre and as luck would have it, my brother's name was only a couple of names away! Oh p.s. he's graduation from BIndDes
Same deal as last time *name gets called out - clap clap clap* and repeat x 100. The lecture theatre was in a terrible state! There were bits of flaky ceiling dangling and holes in the roof that allowed you to see the sky. Not what I would expect at a graduation of a uni like UNSW - Macquarie or UWS maybe :P but not UNSW.
HAHAH! And then the Sydney mayor - Clover Moore came to speak to us. For those who don't know she's quite a prominent and popular politcian. She's also a lesbian. Now, one time I remember on the Kyle and Jackie O, they ended talking about how she's a big supporter of the Mardi Gras and Kyle goes
"Her politcal catch line should be 'Clover Moore - she's our whore!"
And so when she came to speak today, I cracked up in my little and corner and garnered quite a few raised eyebrows. Funnies funnies
After the obligatory photo spam post-ceremony, we all headed off for the REFRESHMENTS which were "Banana cake (good), brownie (ok) and poppyseed (good)"
There was also OJ and sparkling water. OH MY GOSH! I HAVE TO TELL YOU ALL A STORY ABOUT SPARKLING WATER!
-----
ERGHHHHH! I absolutely detest that stuff, I seriously cannot bear the taste to the point where I'll gag it all out. Ok, before I went to Europe I had NEVER heard of this "sparkling water" but I quickly learned that sparkling water is very popular in europe. e.g. When you ask for water, most of the times they'd automatically get you sparkling water.
So here I was in Poland in a Polish supermarkt trying to read the Polish on Polish bottles of water. There were two types of bottles of water, one with a pink cap and one with a blue cap. So I thought "AHA! One must be the "normal or still water" and the other the yuckky "sparkling water"."
And after spending quite a long time squnting at the Polish which looks something like this "W związku z artykułem dotyczącym PLL LOT, zamieszczonym na portalu www.onet.pl, poniżej zamieszczamy sprostowanie Urzędu Lotnictwa Cywilnego odnoszącego się do tego artykułu."
Yeh... I CAME UP WITH THE BRILLIANT IDEA OF SHAKING THE BOTTLES TO CHECK OUT WHICH ONE WAS GASSY AND WHICH ONE WASN'T! I WAS SO PROUD!!
So I shook both and chose the one that seemed less gassy, I was so proud of my genius. On the train that night I poured myself a cup of water, drank and spluttered it all out onto the wall. I had failed -_-
----
Whoops, I kind of completely lost my train of thought there. Heh.
Went to dinner Eastwood ate juicy SHANGHAINESE BUNS! (which Mawby's future shang wife will make everyday)
And that was it.
I SHALL CONCLUDE TODAY WITH A VIDEO OF SHARON FROM TEPPANYAKI!
GOODBYE AND COMMENT BITCHES!
PS. I'm thinking of doing a weekly travel blog section where I talk about my travellings around the globe. What do you people think? Is it too vain, too self-centred, too Boscoesque?

GERMAN!
GUTEN TAG ALLE!
This is going to be a quick update because I have a term's worth of German Extension to fasttrack in a week before my test "T_T" (using Quentin's thing). The story I'm studying at the moment is called "Risiko für Weihnachtsmänner - Risks for Santa" and it is seriously a whacked up story.
Synopsis:
This guy wants to make a quick buck so he signs up to this dodgy Santa agency in a pub which has cold rissoles with gray onion ring sauce. Anyway the organiser called Mulka pretends he's a general organising his soldiers and systematically organises the joy-bringing.
Fast track ------> The guy gets dressed and arrives at his destination. Knocks on the door some thin old scary lady pulls him in and usheres him to hurry up and deliver the presents. They're waiting? But *gasp* WHO?!!!??!
Walks in but sees no children! All he sees is the old man dressed in a black suit *cue raised eyebrows*. Then the woman (the wife of this old man) makes this sign to WHIP THE OLD MAN!
The Santa, now is seriously WTF-ed but this woman keeps frantically gesturing him TO WHIP THE OLD MAN WHIP HIM WHIP HIM!!!!
O_O O_O O_O! Kinky much?
And then the poor Santa finally whips him and the old man goes " THANK YOU YOU HAVE DONE IT! I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D COME THROUGH!"
WTF?!
Then there's this convoluted subplot about how the old man used to be general and once he was bored and radioed HQ to send a Santa but on the way the Santa got shot and ever since the old man has felt guilty.
So this new Santa, who's just trying to make a quick $$$, is suppsoed to be a substitute and reconcile this old man's sin.
BUT what's with the kinky whipping?
ENTER GERMAN CULTURE LESSON!
In some regions of Germany, there is a character called "Knecht Ruprecht" or "Krampus" who accompanies Nikolaus (St. Nicholas) on the 6th of December. He is clothed in rags and carries a birch. He will punish the children who were bad and will give them a birch as a present. He is usually the one who scares the little children. In other parts of Germany, St. Nicholas is followed by a small person called "Schwarz Peter" (Black Peter) who carrys a small whip. Black Peter also accompanies St. Nicholas or Sinterklass in Holland.
Still pretty whacked up if you ask me but whatever.
------------------------------
Hehe, one of our writing tasks was to write a recount of your experience at a recent concert. So I decided to write about THE WONDER GIRLS! WOOT WOOT! I wrote "Yeah I totally love them and I've waited so long for this concert so I waited outside the concert hall gates for ages. When the doors were finally opened there were deafening screams! I knocked out two fat chicks who were in my way cause I wanted to get good seats."
Fun fun fun!
Anyway I shall leave you with this

Teppanyaki and rape mugs
FLY RICE IN MOTION
I know many of you have been waiting for an update for 2 weeks now and voila here it is! Ok today we went out to Showchef Teppanyaki in Darlinghurst with about 15-16 other people. I missed my bus and hence the train everyone went on so == for me.
Met up at GreaterUnion and then we walked to Darlinghurst to catch a bus. Catch was the trip was literally 400m - one stop. It took twice as long to get 16 kids on board a bus than the actual trip length but whatevs because I saved 14cents, that's right 14cents with my TravelTen - hehehe.
Rawr. First impressions of restaurant were "interesting". Ok so it look seriously run down, cramped, small and quite dodgy. We had 16 people but only 12 could fit around the hotplate so they just tacked a table on to a corner, hmm....
AND SO THE FUN BEGAN!
We had salad, miso soup, fish filets, squid, teriyaki chicken, prawns (and their legs?!) egg and fried rice.
The chef was AMAZINGLY talented at deveinimg the prawns with just a prong and a knife - man I end up picking the shit (haha get it?) out of my prawns when I try to devein them.
Needless to say we were AMAZED at his culinary skills and jokes. We had to catch raw eggs in bowls and SHARON, who was seated furthest from the plate dropped hers and we all laughed - hehe. I filmed it too. He tricked Michael by adding spin to his egg and it ended up landing into Michael's bowl but spun right out onto Jackie's plate, much to her horror!
Then we had to catch bits of fried egg with our mouths and I (surprisingly) caught mine *proud*. Unfortunately someone else (S-Y) missed x3!
SY at work
Karma bit me back though :(. Everyone took turns in catching bowls of fried rice with another bowl and the chef chucked Ben's rice at him without a bowl but he still caught it! I kind of...missed and it asploded everywhere :( Serves me right aye?
The chef hit on Winnie
"How much you love me? How much you love me?"
*Winnie blushes, forcefully smiles and demonstrates*
"This much..."
"Ahh! How much you pay for me then? $5?!"
*awkward turtle*
It was a GOOD FIRST TIME AND A FUN EXPERIENCE! It was a bit pricy but I guess it's the novelty that counts! The one other thing that really bugged me was how salty everything was! After the meal I was gagging for more water to drown out all the evil msg particles
When I got back I was talking to mawson and this comes up....

Yay for sleepover at Richard's! We ate dinner and watched movies til 4 and then slept. Contrary to what Jackie called a "booty call", it was, rest assured, just a sleepover :P
MONSTER HOUSE WAS SO SCARY! WHAT KIND OF CARTOON HAS A MORBIDLY OBESE WOMAN HACKING AT KIDS WITH AXES WHO LATER BECOMES REINCARNATED AS A HUMAN EATING HOUSE?!
Charlie's Angels was hilarious but the best would have to be TRANSFORMERS!!! Yay for Megatron and the Deceptacons! Kill Jazz!! BOOOOOO FOR OPTIMUS PRIME! DOWN WITH SAM! (A ram sam sam a ram sam sam gooll goooly ram sam sam - sorry total moodkiller but that just popped in my head)
Monday 27/4/09
My mum decided to be nice and brewed me one of those vile traditional Chinese concotions they call medicine. Anyway I thought it was a nice gesture til I read what was on the mug O_O!!!!!
WTFRICK?! WHY DO I HAVE A RAPE MUG?! That was my reaction so I googled it and it turns out Rapee is a cushion company. Geez, what sort of brand association is that?! Cushions = Rapee = Rape. Man what if this happened
"So where do you work?"
"I'm a salesperson for Rapee"
"YOU SELL WHAT?!"
Anyway that is it for now, I actually had more to blog about but I think if it's too long people will get bored.
