Awesome Possum Week!

Alrighty! I'll sum up the events that happened the past few days.

1. Infamous Freshy Pub Crawl and Jenga

Like I said before, I'm not into alcohol and booze. I know the names of em' but I'm not 'INTO' it... get it? :P

Cuz I can't tolerate alcohol that well. Which....! Is a plus too and I AM proud to say I've never gotten drunk! =3

Anyways, before the uni classes commence, each year we do a pub crawl with the freshies. We travel around different pubs and to let them 'familiarize' Melbourne's inner structures. The crawl was only 4 hours long and covered a total of 14 pubs around Melbourne CBD. There were a total of 200 of us! @@

I did drink, but only one can of beer throughout the whole period (was forced to chunk but I refused cuz I have self-control =3) and of course... I went red like a lobster like one of the Caucasian freshy told me. -___-

We all did our Monash and Melbourne U chants while crawling and did an easy to follow group routine for the song TiK ToK. It was great fun overall. Made some new friends, some were seniors and others were juniors. =3

Prince Alfred Pub

Pub crawling to the next stop

Drinks and games.

The group dance! :)

Puggs pub was our last stop for the day.

After the crawl I went back home to chill with my Indo mates. We did basic stuff in my apartment like pool, Wii and of course... good old jenga. ;)

Awesome mates. :D
L to R: Adrian, Felix, Ming, Steven and Hansen

2. The Cook Off

On Saturday, we had a cook off at my place. All of us (except RJ) cooked. I personally whipped up a few dishes myself... and I was proud of the results! :P

Here's the list of who made what!
Ming: Roast chicken with lemon and rosemary, mushroom risotto with shitakke, portobello, button and porcini mushroom and some cripy bacon on top, salad with some smoked salmon and balsamic dressing and finally some hot chocolate with 2 different choco mix (not powdered). =3

Angela Lu: Molten choc with strawberries and cream.

Christina: Apple crumble.

Ying: Stir-fry bean sprout.

Moon: Pancakes with Nutella

Arj: Sky juice... FTW!

We forgot to take pictures of every item cause we were so busy eating. Sowee. :P

But everything turned out AWESOME for that night! Played Wii and we all lost a few cals... I think. Angela owned us with the Hula while Christina did the step up and boxing like nobody's business. Hahaha, but overall last week was AWESOME POSSUM week!

Snooping around, seeing what are the girls making.

Angela and Ying making the choco molt.

Me teaching Christina how to cook the 'perfect' Ming risotto.

Culinary experts at work :D

Makan Makan! ;)

My roasted chicken '1st try'. Not too bad eh? ;D

Girls were watching while the guys were playing 'Bleach'

Christina teaching about the 'step up'

That's all for now!

Gonna practice on my Jenga skills!

Peace out!
