A Lil Place I Call Home

 Hello there. 

It has been a week since I came back to Melb. The amount of things I've done this week has labeled this week the most productive week ever! I packed everything up from scratch in my room, sealed them in boxes, moved to a new place along with my furnitures, unpacked everything, reassembled my furnitures, still had to go for classes, meet up with my ex-housemates, and settled some documents for my old place. I'm glad that now everything is back on track. I can just chill and watch dramas eventually, hehehe, since there is no assignments/reports yet! :) 

Many of my friends asked me why do I have to move. The reason is my 3 housemates (ex) have graduated and are leaving Melb for good. So, Gary, Sharon and HK are no longer my housemates now. Sharon and HK left Melb on Wednesday, whilst Gary is leaving in 10 days time. I just HAVE to move. To be honest, I was SO reluctant to move, and of course hoped that I don't need to move at all. Being in a place for about 2 years and have already very much feeling comfortable with it and being with the same people. All of these have gradually occupied a part of my life in Melb. I know that it's time for a change. Well true, but it does take some time for me to practice a new routine. Even when Gary was helping me to disassemble my table, he was all like 'I'm disassembling the memories'. Awwww. :'( At that point, I know that I'm not the only one who is being sentimental about leaving my old place. So far, my new accommodation is treating me well except the fact that I have to wake up earlier to travel to uni as I moved somewhere further away from uni. 

Oh well, life goes on. :)

 #1 Our version of successkid.jpg! It was a Tuesday night and we were heading to Crown, so I asked each of them to pose like successkid, but only 4 of them entertained me, lol. At last only 2 of them won, and no, I did not gamble! 

#2 Before Crown, we had dinner at +39 Pizzeria. I've read reviews that say +39 Pizzeria arguably serves the best pizza in Melbourne. IMHO, it was just an okay.

 #3 I don't take nutella, but my friends are saying the Nutella Pizza was the best of all! Just by looking at the generous amount of nutella oozing out!

 #4 Wednesday morning; had coffee at my favourite kiosk in uni - Kere kere, and picked up my student diary in the student centre. It was 9 in the morning. :) 

After class, I met up with Sharon, HK, Gary and Wei Shin for brunch at Hardware Societe located at Hardware Street. It was the last day of Sharon and HK before they leave Melb. 

Ahh can never get bored of this cosy little cafe, major loves! They have different menus - breakfast & lunch, which cater differently for weekdays & weekends. They alter their menus from time to time, so you can always come back to try new items in their menus!

 #5 Breakfast - Banana Bread

 #6 Breakfast - Eggs Cocette (!!!)

 #7 Breakfast - Baked eggs with Sausages

 #8 Breakfast - Baked eggs with Chorizo

#9 Scrambled Eggs

 #10 The guys were still hungry, so we waited till 12pm and ordered from the lunch menu. This is Seared Scallops. 

#11 Lunch - Pan fried Salmon

Both breakfast & lunch menus were equally good, and definitely worth a revisit in the future!

 #12 Camwhore! 

 #13 I'm always the one holding the camera/phone. 

#14 my last brunch with le housemates. :'(

Dinner was at La Spaghettata, Lygon Street. 

 #14 The usual camwhore shot! 

 #15 Sharon and Weishin. 

 #16 Sharon and Weishin. 

 #17 Yes I was frowning because Sharon is leaving me lollll. 

 #18 Mixed Pasta 1

 #19 Mixed Pasta 2 

 #20 THE Seafood Platter that costs us AUD149. 

 #21 Showing you the Seafood Platter, not our candid faces lol. 

 #22 Yums!

 #23 This was then - A Lil Place I Call Home :)

#24 Taken outside our place just the four of us before they leave, and it was raining! (Hence the effect.)

Goodbye to the place & people which I've spent for the past 2 years with. I couldn't help but to think about things happened in this little place. I'm seriously gonna miss this place loadsss! To the three of you, bon voyage & all the best in the future. I'd also like to apologise, if I haven't been being a good housemate, as to stay together isn't something easy. Of course, thank you for all the things (even little things I can remember very well) that you people have done for me!! <3 <3 <3 <3 

Thank you for the memories. :)
