I still can't believe that I went in Sydney! The feeling is just so.... surreal 😮I have been wanting to go in Sydney Australia for so many years now because I want to see their famous landmarks like Opera House & Harbour Bridge. My trip is not that planned because supposed to be, my younger brother and my cousin are the ones that will have a vacation there last May. But it happened that I was turning 18 last February and I couldn't decide if I will a party or not. My dad let me choose if either I want to have a party or I will go with my brother & cousin in Sydney. At first, I can't choose because I want to have a party too so that I could celebrate my birthday with my friends and family (hassle!! Can I choose both?) 😕 What let me changed my mind that time was when my Tita told me that I will stay there for 2 freaking months!!! I mean, who wouldn't like that, right!? So I chose 2 months vacation over a whole night party for my 18th. It also came into my mind that since I love traveling, why not grab the opportunity? And of course, we all go through in passing the requirements for our Visa. There's a 50/50 chance that neither of us can't go. As soon as my cousin passed our requirements in Immigration and I started to get nervous that time because what if they wouldn't grant my Visa?? But thank God because they did 🙈
Our flight going in Sydney was last May (first week --- couldn't remember the date) and we arrived in Sydney Airport around 10 am. My Tita and Tito are the ones who fetched us, btw. My first lunch / dinner there was Pancit Canton but I didn't eat that much because I was so sleepy that time. After eating dinner, we went out to meet my other cousins in Max Brenner. And yes, we ate again. I looove the foods there! Although they are all sweets 😛 It matches the weather that night because it's so cold!! I also ordered hot choco because I don't drink coffee #FunFact

Tutti Frutti Belgium Waffle with Strawberries, Banana, Vanilla Ice Cream and Milk Chocolate Drizzle
Not the typical pizza that I usually eat but it was so good!
If you like sweet stuffs, I am pretty sure that you're gonna like Max Brenner Chocolate Bar.
Max Brenner is literally an opium den for chocolate lovers and if you're not, maybe you should avoid this place because you might not be able to tolerate the level of sweetness. There are many other choices of desserts, ranging from chocolate beverages to crepes, ice creams and waffles.With its cozy environment and creative chocolate dishes, I understand why some might classify Max Brenner as a must-try. Is this a Max Brenner review or what? lol
ahhh, these guys 💘
I think it was past 10 or 11 when we got home. All I could say is it's only my first night but I started to love Sydney that time. I hope I could go back and try Max Brenner again.
My first 3 days in Sydney is so hard because in that days, I didn't eat rice! Trying to be an #Aussie 😒 Thank God I survived!
PS: Starting to search if there is a Max Brenner here in Phils.

Oh yes!! It's officially my school vacation 😛 I could say this month was a one hella rollercoaster ride because of the school projects that I need to do ( one of those is the thesis) and of course a thesis would not be a "thesis" if there is no "defense" 😣 I know that it's normal that you'll feel scared or nervous especially when you're first timer like me hahaha! I was kinda glad that I was able to experience doing a thesis defense because I will know already what it feels like and what are the things that is about happen -- perks of being a Grade 11 student. I'm also happy that all the projects that I've been doing for the past weeks are not finished! I honestly thought that I couldn't make it this school year. There are so many things that had happened this school year and some of those are the happy moments with your friends, bondings with your classmates, and of course we couldn't avoid having a misunderstanding with them or specifically with your groupmates. But what's important is you get to solve it because it's so hard to work with someone that you have a hard feelings with him/her. Your group couldn't work well if there is a hindrance. You guys should fix that issue so that you could work smoothly. Lower down your pride because it won't help. Trust me. Been there, done that 😐 I couldn't still believe that I made it! I made it through Grade 11! All the projects, homeworks,seatworks,quizzes and exams were finally over for this school year. Who wouldn't be happy, right? 😉 Thanks for my friends for keeping me sane.
I suddenly remember when I was passing my project last week, I realized that I will be a graduating student this coming June. Like wow. There are so many things that has been running on my mind since that day. If I made it through Grade 12 ( which I know I will) lol. I got plans & dreams, girl. I will already be a College student. That thought scares the hell out of me, seriously. I think the thought of me entering College next year doesn't scare me at all because I know that I really need to enter College. It's the fact that I'll be dealing strict Professors throughout my College life. The Professors that are very strict on deadlines, those who are very hard on giving exams, and especially those who wouldn't have a second thought on giving you a failing grade. Those kind of Profs are giving me chills 😳 geez... listening to the College life of other people isn't a good idea. On second thought....... Why am I already thinking these things? lol. I need to relax and enjoy being a Highschool student. I need to seize the days being a highschool student. I'm actually torn between seizing the days of being a Highschool and just relaxing and enjoying the ride. I don't want to look back and have any regrets --- not that I'm planning to. I know that Highschool will be the best day of my life, and I know that I will miss it dearly. I've got to see and experience the reality of life in the past year. But as the time comes closer, I get a feeling that grows everyday --- the feeling that I'm finally ready to move on to the next part of my life. In one way, it's unsettling, uncertain and scary, but in another, it's completely awesome.
While doing my projects, here are the list of songs that I've listened to and has put me into a good mood for this month:
1. Fresh Eyes - Andy Grammer
3. Perfect - Ed Sheeran
4. Shape of You - Ed Sheeran
This morning I woke up to the sound of my phone. The birthday messages had started early in the morning.
My 18th year of life has officially begun
It's the 3rd day of our school fair and sad to say, I can't attend because I'm gonna do some important stuffs. In the 1st and 2nd day of our school fair, all I did is to eat and eat and eat. I'm kinda upset because there is no fish & fries which I've been looking forward to every school fair. And oh! It has been a month since I wrote the last Sunday Currently entry 😱 I'm back mga bes!
