Reminiscence

Hehe~

Had a great time chatting with one of The Famous 4, KT, on msn last night and as usual, we had our girl talk =P

Suddenly she asked what happened to the plan YX and I made since high school about getting a bikini...So I told her that YX got hers already and I, on the other hand, haven't cause I'm scared to wear it already since Adelaide is super duper small I could just bump into anyone I know here >.< And I would not like to bump into anyone while being in a bikini, thank you very much!

What d'ya know?! KT got her bikini already?! o.O shocking! Since she was the most shy among us and she also shocked us by getting attached in college...hehe~ Now I see how much we've changed over the past few years and I think it's a good change.

4 of us, total different personalities...well, not exactly 100% different but you get the drift. We are all so unique in our own ways and because of this difference, we mix together so well I can't even use words to describe. We can talk endlessly during Taekwondo trainings, recesses and hangouts. We could talk about ANYTHING, anything under the sky, anything that your twisted minds can ever think of...

Before I knew JM, I thought I was the only person on Earth who eats the slowest! After I knew her, we were waiting for each other to finish our food =P Awww~ I loved recesses...We can never get enough of each other (The Famous 4). We would run to each others' classes during period breaks to just say something totally pointless.

I always thought I'd never find friends who can click with me because of my weird personality...lol...but I guess opposites attract XD

XOXO,
Me

^_^

I'm on cloud 9 at the moment...there's nothing to do with P whatsoever...just because I feel happy...happy without a reason. Well, there IS a reason but I came to a bigger realisation today after our bible study session.

I've been feeling really happy after bible study sessions...just like on Friday night, E asked me why I was smiling and laughing the whole time and she was so sure that there was something to do with P and when I said no she didn't believe me.

Anyway, I'm just so speechless about my being so happy...so I'll just leave it just here.

Tomorrow's the beginning of another week of uni...gotta make the best out of every day!

XOXO,
Me

Suddenly...

...I realise I'm too emotional, in a good way maybe. I'm not sure, you tell me.

Was just reading one of my brother's friends' blogs when suddenly my tears flowed down my cheeks as I read the last sentence.

http://wzlee.blogspot.com/2007/06/20-minutes.html

He was blogging about his going back to Penang, his hometown, which is also mine. ^.^ They way he described Penang made me realise that that's where I was born, that's where I was brought up...so what if people think Penang is ulu? Well, to certain extent, I do agree Penang is ulu, so what? It's my identity and 18 years of memories in Penang have been kept in the corners of my heart.

Just a few days ago, my brother sent me an MMS of mummy's pic...and suddenly I felt that she grew old alot...maybe it's the same I don't know, but she looked older to me. Having heard about the death of a friend's father made me appreciate what I have more...When my dad told me they went out for late supper and they had Penang's most famous Char Koay Teow, I couldn't help but to ask them to take care and not to eat too much of oily food.

I wanna go home...I wanna see my parents and brother waving at me at the airport, knowing that they're OK. But I know that when I go home during the summer holidays, my brother won't be there anymore...he'd be back in Moscow, doing his 4th year of medicine. I miss annoying him and laughing like a siao char bor (given by my brother).

I can still remember how my brother and I fought over EVERY SINGLE thing. We'd kick and punch each other like there's no tomorrow. He'd use his karate techniques, I'd just use whatever techniques I could think of...Mummy would always (well, not exactly always) scold him because he's the elder one and he doesn't know how to control his strength. I'd end up having a stomach ache due to the punches...but what the heck?! Hehe~ I miss those days...

We're the total opposites...Used to wonder if God had mistaken our identities XP (Note the word "USED TO") Wish I could post a picture of my brother and I when we were little but I lost my pictures when my computer was sent for repair and I didn't have time to scan our pictures into my laptop.

My aunts and cousins once told me that although my brother and I fought alot when we were young, he loved me alot...=') Once when I was around 3 years old, I did something (I forgot what) and my dad (or mum, can't remember) wanted to beat me with the cane but he protected me against it. Can you imagine that?! Awww...mushy feeling came over me. My brother?! Haha...my brother who doesn't even show that he cares did that for me! *giggles*

Well, not only me brother I guess. My family is a typical Chinese family where they do not tell each other they care but they care through actions. I think the only time I told them that I miss them was since I came here...and I did it through SMS XP Oh well, better late than never right?
I THINK my dad missed me the most...I said I THINK cause I'm not sure. My dad is worse than my mom. He misses my brother but he acts all cool and calm when my brother calls whereas my mom would rush to the phone to talk to him. At least they have my brother to keep them company for now...

My mom told me years ago that my dad had always wanted a daughter. My parents got married late so my mom was kinda "old" when she conceived my brother and my dad suggested that they try for a baby girl before it's too late. So, here I am! Born into this world...My mom gave birth to me when she was 41 so they were kind of worried if I would be normal and stuff. Hello world!!

So, from now on, I shall not condemn myself and should learn to forgive myself. That was why I felt so happy yesterday after OCF...=D Ah...starting to get lazy in typing...shall elaborate the next time IF I'm still in the mood to...

Hillsong - Royalty

God made me who I meant to be
He loves me just the way I am
God made me who I meant to be
His dreams for me is so amazing

For this simple reason
I am happy to be me

My God watches over me
I feel like royalty

XOXO,
Me

I'm officially...

...afraid of balls.

Not THAT kinda balls, mind you.

It's the balls we use to play basketball, baseball, and other games.

Well, I think I developed that phobia in primary school.

I wasn't good in basketball and my PE teacher had something against me.

Then one time in high school, I was playing baseball with a friend and I was trying to hit the baseball when the baseball came smashing into my face, exactly between my nose and my lips. *ouch*

I was wearing braces then...It hurt soooo bad I thought I was going to lose a few teeth but thank God I didn't. However, one of my coloured rubber bands came off.

From then on, I told myself not to play with ANY type of (game) balls.

But when I came here, I thought maybe I don't have that phobia anymore and what do you know?

Got hit by a basketball again right at my nose! >.<

And now I'm thinking...how do I ever learn any sport involving balls?

*shrugs*

I MUST overcome my phobia...but how?! =S

2nd day of 2nd semester

Had a hard time choosing another elective because the ones that I'm interested in are either full or the time clashes with my other subjects =S

So, I settled for Religions of the Ancient World which the seminar is held in Mawson Lakes campus located FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR away from my hostel...*sigh*

It's ok...I think I can take it...if it's too much to bear, I know He'll be by my side, supporting me all the way!

Well, uni was normal...no friends to have lunch with, resulting my sleeping on the cafeteria table until my arms were numb @.@

I used to hate bus rides...but now I think I enjoy them. I enjoy watching the world go by...house after house, tree after tree, person after person, it's just so fascinating =))

I'm feeling better...after everything that has happened. Can't believe that my life here is sooooooo "colourful" compared to my life back in Penang. Probably because of the people I got to know. Can't imagine how my life would be if I hadn't met them...hmmm...*thinks*

I've been thinking, have I been listening more or talking more? In nature, I'm a talkative person, yes.

I still remember in Form 5, I sat with one of my best friends, YX, in class and we talked 24/7 until the prefect in front of us got annoyed =P but we didn't care anyway and that prefect kinda got used to it eventually...HAH!

Then sometime after mid-year exams, I started to feel that I needed to listen more...so I did. I thought I didn't play my part good enough. Surprise surprise, when we were about to graduate, YX wrote: "I realised that now you've learnt to listen more and I really appreciate it" in my autograph book. So it did make a difference! I still remember that phrase till today...and I wanna live up to it once again.

Somehow, sometimes I just can't contain whatever I wanna say. I just blurt out everything and anything that's on my mind >.< Then I'll regret for not being patient enough. Now, that's one of the reasons I hate myself sometimes. I shall not elaborate on the other stuff that make me hate myself =S And yes, I shall start learning how to forgive myself...I really need to =)

XOXO,
Me

Women's Rights

Well, something happened to me today...I shall not say what...

But, I'm very sure now that I understand how other women feel when their rights and dignity are violated.

It's like sometimes we do not make it a big deal because we feel that there's no need to complicate things further.

However, when we do not make it an issue, men think that they have the authority and power because they know that we won't do anything and that we are vulnerable.

So...I'm still a bit disturbed but at the same time I sympathise them for they do not how to think with their brains.

It's ok, I shall forgive them...

Women are humans as well ok? Without women, alot of things cannot be achieved as women have the will power most men do not possess.

Oh well, I shall not go on and on about women's strength...=P

All I wanna say is, I'm kinda pissed for not standing up for myself. I should have been more couragous. *sigh* Now I kinda regret but then if I had stood up for myself everyone would be upset. ARRGGGHHHH! I don't know...=S

XOXO,
Me

It's moments like this...

...I wish I was a guy

I hate it when I wanna let some tears out because of frustration but they just wouldn't come out.

I hate it when I know that nothing's changed but I can't be who I am.

I hate it when I'm emotional.

I hate it when I have nothing to say anymore.

I hate it when I'm typing this post because I hate what I'm feeling right now.

I hate it when I start to think incoherently.

And most of all...



I hate it when I say I want to sleep early but ending up sleeping late!!!!

I hate myself!

p/s: If I can't wake up tomorrow morning, I have myself to blame >.<

XOXO,
Me

A New Start

Today is the day...

Uni starts and I have to make sure I sleep early and wake up early...

Not gonna be like last sem, where I slept late and woke up early...and then feel sleepy the whole day the next day...

Woke up at 10am today, had my breakfast and here I am...

Still listening to that particular song...

But everything's different now...

The truth is exposed but I'm sure nothing has changed!

Thank God for that...I am truly blessed =)

Faith n obedience - that's what I learnt in yesterday's bible study...

Shall elaborate more the next time...

XOXO,
Me

History repeated itself -.-

Why?! Why?!

Arrggghhhh...I'm so pissed with myself >.<

Just in 7 months being in Adelaide, I've already wet my pants, let me see....thrice!!

And 2 out of 3 times, my bible was in my bag!!

I wet my bible twice! =S

Nevermind, I shall tell you guys how I wet my pants the last 2 times some other time.

Feeling so tired and sleepy...gotta go and sleep now.

zzzZZZ......

XOXO,
Me

Forbidden Love (?)

It's lunchtime...

And I'm having my lunch in my room because all of my friends are in the city >.< style="font-style: italic;">Nick stepped back, his arms falling heavily by his sides, and looked at her in disbelief.
'You're actually going to throw away this all away because you're an inverted snob,' he said angrily.
'If you like,' said Laura, keeping all her emotions in check with one last herculean effort.
'You're a coward,' he said, his voice harsh, his fists clenched. He shook his head. 'Coward.'
She turned and walked towards the car, and when she reached it she took the keys out and, trembling, tried to unlock it. Her hands were shaking. He watched her as she opened the door.
'You know, I actually thought I might be falling in love with you,' he said quietly. He stepped away, turned around and walked towards the house, and didn't turn back once.
Laura drove out of the stables, onto the long, wide driveway, not daring to look in the mirror in case she caught sight of Chartley behind her, or the figure climbing the steps at the front to disappear inside. Tears rolled down her cheeks; she gripped the steering wheel and put her foot on the accelerator.
'The trouble is, I'd already fallen in love with you,' she said softly to herself, as she reached the end of the long, long drive, and turned onto the main road, back towards home."

(Evans 2006, p. 316)

*sob* I wonder if they'll end up together...gonna read it later...It's been ages since I read a romantic novel. The last time I cried reading a novel was last year when I read A Walk to Remember. The book and the movie had some differences. All in all, I still prefer the book simply because it's the original story AND it's way more touching than the movie. Many people, like me, do not know why the story is called "a walk to remember" and think that maybe it's because they had one last walk together =P The real reason is when Jamie fell sick, she could hardly stand on her own 2 feet and it took her a huge amount of effort to walk down the aisle on her wedding day, hence the title "A Walk to Remember" =')

XOXO,

Me

...

Woke up today, feeling a pang of sadness come over me...

I'm not sure why I felt that way. but I think it's caused by several reasons:

1. J came knocking on my door, bidding her goodbye because she's leaving today
2. Received an sms from my best friend, N, since Form2 saying that she dreamt of me and because she misses me so much
   
3. I came online and the first song I listened to was that song...
4. Classes are resuming next week and I haven't gotten enough of the holidays
   

Reason no.1 was a little illogical but still I think humans are like that, when we spend time with certain people most of our waking time...when it comes to the time to separate...somehow you'll have this strange feeling of sadness. Or I'm just being too emotional?

I wanted to hug N tightly and tell her that she'll always be my best friend so badly! I still remember in Form3, we kind of had an argument over something really really stupid (I can't remember what) and we were giving each other the cold shoulder. However, I guess friendship wins over pride. Both of us decided to send each other an e-mail to apologise. And you know how people used to say "sorry seems to be the hardest word"? Well, we did it! We made this promise to stay as best friends even though we're old, married and have grandchildren ^_^ and so I replied her sms telling her that we must always keep in touch no matter how far apart we may be. *sniff* OMG! I just realised I still have that e-mail N sent me!! Awww~ This is a part she wrote:

'ee lin' i say please stay
give our 'friendship' a chance for one more day
we'll try to work things out
taking time is what 'friendship's' all about
-FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY -

I know you don't read my blog, busy preparing for STPM and all...but IF you ever come across this post, I'm sorry I get on your nerves sometimes too =P Can't wait to see you at the end of the year!! I'll strive here...while you strive back home! ;) Let's watch ALL the movies released in the cinemas, scaring the shit out of ourselves, laughing like nobody's business and crying like our dog just died XD

Talking about N reminds me of a naughty thing we did =P Luckily there weren't any 'casualties'. One time we were in the cinema watching this horror movie and suddenly I got a msg from this unknown person asking "me" where i was and that "she" missed "me" something like that...and she sounded like she's some naggy girlfriend or some sort so I replied "I'm sorry to tell you but I wanna break up with you" >.<

Reason no.3, 我实在不明白我自己，明明一切已经没事了，怎么一醒来就去听那首歌曲？一旦喜欢上一个人，就难以自拔的我，已经浪费我中学时光在一个不喜欢我的人的身上。这次，我学聪明了，不再浪费时间和精神在这样的人的身上。但是，明明已经告诉自己不要再胡思乱想，却每次听xx语的歌曲，脑海就情不自禁的想起他来。

不行！我一定要找回开朗的自己！;)

第一次

这是我第一次使用中文update我的部落格。

今天真的真得很开心因为我不再因没有原因而感到伤心或忧愁。

我和他的关系也像以前一样，是好朋友没有改变。

这样的结果也许对我们来说是最好的吧！

伤心和忧愁不是完全因为他，而是，一切的一切。

有时候太空闲的时候，头脑有太多的思想空间就会东想西想，就会不知不觉感到忧虑。。。

其实自己很讨厌这样的自己，所以从今天开始，以后再也不要想那么多，令到自己不开心。

一切都交托于他的手中。。。　

Cheery Cherry...

...I used to be.

I'm gonna find my old self back!!!

Currently addicted to a song sung by Celine Dion and some guy called Love Lights Up the World.

It is not a romantic love song but love in general...Everytime I listen to the chorus, I feel so so so depressed because...nevermind.

The lyrics goes like this:

Somewhere in this world
Someone shed a tear
Somebody just like you
Feels the way you do

Somewhere in this world
Someone understands
Another needs a helping hand
Help them if you can

I can touch you where you are
We both share every star
'Cause a common thread runs through

Life means much the same to all
So let's tear down every wall
And build a bridge from me to you

When will we put fear aside?
Why can't we throw away false pride?
Every heart will glow when
Love lights up the world

No need to walk in the dark
We don't have to stand so far apart
Every heart will know when
Love lights up the world

Mothers everywhere
Babies at their breast
One love is like the rest

A universal bond
All around the world

Children laugh and play
Every boy and girl
The future of the world

As time continues on

I can touch you where you are
We both share every star
'Cause a common thread runs through

Life means much the same to all
So let's tear down every wall
And build a bridge from me to you

When will we put fear aside?
Why can't we throw away false pride?
Every heart will glow when
Love lights up the world

No need to walk in the dark
We don't have to stand so far apart
Every heart will know when
Love lights up the world

When will we put fear aside?
Why can't we throw away false pride?
Every heart will glow when
Love lights up the world

Love is gonna light this whole world

No need to walk in the dark
We don't have to stand so far apart
Every heart will glow when
Love lights up the world

Love lights the world
Love lights the world
Let me hear it one more time

Love lights the world
And it shines on you
Love lights the world

Love lights the world

Love lights the world
Love lights up the world
And it shines on you

Love lights the world
Love lights up the world
Love lights the world
Love lights up the world
Love lights up the world
Love lights up the world

p/s: sorry for what I've done, guys...Please be patient with me as God is still working on me =')

Depressed

I'm more depressed than ever....ever!!

After receiving a phone call from a friend, G, I'm depressed...

So heartbroken...

A bible verse to keep me sane:
(can't remember which book, which chapter and verse =S will go find out)
The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart and saves such as have a contrite spirit

Sorry, I Lied

Guys...I think you know who you are...

Sorry, I lied...I wasn't in my room sleeping.

I was running away from the world.

I know it's crazy to talk to you guys through this blog, but I just can't face you guys.

I don't know how to express myself anymore.

Dress to impress?

*laughs hysterically*

Nah...never! For me, at least...

I may not be perfect but I' m always me...

So...guess what I did today! I, being so me, went for a walk in Morialta Conservation Park in pyjamas and slippers!! Yep! You guys "heard" that right...pyjamas and slippers! Woohoo~

It's not that I always wear pyjamas everywhere in Penang. In fact I've never really worn pyjamas out, unless I'll be sitting in the car waiting for my parents to do their stuff =D

It was super duper fun...Not caring what people think of you.

For the first time in ages, I could do something as crazy as this. Well, it might not sound crazy to some people but it might be to my friends here. Cause I've been wanting to wear my pyjamas when I go out but many a times, my friends will ask me to go change...hehe~

At first I imagined myself as a mental patient who was on the loose...haha...I have to admit, my pyjamas did look a little like a mental patient's except for the teddies and duckies all over them =P I did get quite a number of stares but I didn't care. I just walked in and admired the greenery around me. It was definitely a sight for sore eyes!! After that I was thinking: What if people think I'm some kind of psycho trying to commit suicide in the park? That thought made me wanna laugh out loud! Yeah right...committing suicide with a phone and room key in one hand. =D


And there's where the saying "There's always a blessing at the end of every wrong turn" comes into the picture. I took the wrong road. Instead of turning right to the first falls, I made a left turn to some muddy and steep road. As I walked up that road, I started panting a little...and then...*speechless* how spectacular the scenery was from up there! I guess that's the "blessing" I got...Wow~


After snapping a few pictures, I turned back and took the road that I should've taken. As I walked further in, the strong wind blew harder and harder on my face, making it so numb I wasn't even sure if my face was still there! >.< Seeing the waterfalls makes me think of a song called "Indescribable". The lyrics go something like this:

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the way back to my hostel, I started to think again.

Haha~ Thinking...that's what I do best.

Why do people judge you by what you wear? Who made the rule that pyjamas should be worn to bed and office-wear should be worn to work etc. If everyone wears pyjamas to work and office-wear to sleep, then it would be a norm because everyone does it. You get what I mean? Ahh...I don't understand myself either =P Just a thought...Now another question comes to my mind...Why do women wear high heels?! LOL...besides wanting to be taller and to make their butts higher or something (no offence to those wearing heels). I once read in a health magazine that high heels are a form of modern-day feet-binding and I couldn't agree more! We as humans are made to walk on our flat (but arched) feet, why wear high heels that can cause health problems? OK, I know some of you are already thinking: I'm sure you'll wear high heels one day! I'm not completely against it or anything, I'm just curious. Please don't bombard me with negative comments! >.<

Anyway, I feel much much fresher after having a walk with nature. Fresh air....*inhales deeply*

On my way in...

Teddies on my pj's =D

On my way up the wrong road =S

On the way down...

Ahh...Finally!

On the way out...*thinks*

That's all guys...one of my boring days =D

Crap, I'm feeling hungry already...hehe~

XOXO,
Me

Misunderstood

After talking to E, I realised that whatever I type in my blog doesn't 100% reflect my thoughts because as I've said it before I don't really know how to express my thoughts in words.

Once I try to express them in words, they come out totally different from what I was thinking =S

Then again, I give up...

Maybe not give up totally but maybe I'll try not to force myself in expressing my thoughts in words...

*sweat*

Anyway, wanted to share something with you guys but it's getting late and I don't feel like typing too much.

So, stay tune to what I'm going to share with you!! ;)

XOXO,
Me

Untitled

Was chatting with a friend and I realised that I am a person who is very hard to understand.

I may feel something but don't show it.

I have things to say but I don't know how to say it.

I think of stuff but I don't know how to put my thoughts in words.

I may look angry but I'm not.

I may feel sad but I look angry.

I feel angry but I look normal.

And yes...everytime when I'm not sure how to express my feelings and thoughts, I say "nevermind"

*sigh*

Am I just another complicated girl, just like what everyone says? - Girls are complicated creatures.

XOXO,
Me

Right or Wrong?

I've made my decision....

Although I'm not quite sure if it's right...

Maybe...I should just let go...

Or maybe not...

I shall wait and see what happens...

Time will tell...

Or maybe not...

Only God knows...

This may not make sense to some...

But it doesn't matter...

XOXO,
Me

Bored n Lazy

I just had my lunch and here I am, updating my blog because I've been receiving complaints about how seldom I update my blog =P

Right now, I'm just feeling super bored and lazy to do anything. Still in my pyjamas. Woke up this morning to have breakfast with E, then went to her room to chat until I fell asleep on her bed until lunch time -.-" great...

I need a shower but I'm lazy...I want to read Hopeless Romantic but I can't stop imagining myself as the female character in the novel...I feel like walking around the neighbourhood but it's too cold outside...I want to sleep all day but I'd be wasting my time...

Another week and holidays will be over!!! ARRGGGHHHH!! I'm panicking...I'm dreading classes already ='( My results are still not out...that freaks me out the most...=S

Anyway, was watching this Japanese drama series with one of my friends, D, last night. The drama is about this man who couldn't get married because of his weird personality (I think) and the drama basically revolves around this man's life. One thing I noticed from Japanese and Korean drama series is that when women and men of certain age are not married, their family or friends would arrange some sort of meeting for them with men or women so that they could find their marriage partner. I just don't get it. What's wrong with being single your whole life?! Ok, maybe nothing's wrong, but why?! Besides no one taking care of you, I think it's fun being single...although I myself have to admit that sometimes it's better to have someone by your side. How do people actually get married after looking at each other's pictures, go out on a few dates without even knowing that person well enough?? Isn't that freaky?? What if you end up marrying someone who's totally not meant for you and that's it...your whole life is ruined!? You only have one life...One true love...One soulmate...One marriage...

Maybe I was wrong about the "one marriage" part since people nowadays get divorced when they find that they're not suitable for each other. They may be fortunate enough to get divorced (not that I agree with getting a divorce) but what about those women out there who are not as "fortunate"? They suffer in silence for the sake of their kids, because they're not capable enough to be independent, they're too scared to stand up for themselves etc.?? Hmmm...so many questions need an answer. And why is it that men are always the dominating one? I've asked this questions to my guy friends before at the table during breakfast - Why is it that when a man has an affair, it's forgivable but when it's the woman who has an affair, the husband finds it so hard to forgive? And why is it that when a girl burps people find it unacceptable but when a guy burps it's totally acceptable? Aren't we all the same? Humans made by God? Then why are there so much stereotyping? In certain aspects I do agree that each gender has their strengths and weaknesses but certain aspects I just totally don't get it. *sigh*

See the results of being bored and lazy? My mind starts to wander around...thinking about Why questions @.@

I promise I shall not blog unless I have some interesting stuff to tell ok?? =D

Currently listening to:

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love
Along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow, kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Every long lost dream
Led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart
They were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way
Into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God bless the broken road
That led me straight to you

- Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts -

Now this reminds me of a quote from New York Minute - There's always a blessing at the end of every wrong turn - which I find it quite true. Sometimes we ask "why me?" "why now?" but we often dwell in the negative side of the situation that we are not able to see the blessing God has in store for us. Haha~ This sounds familiar...I read it in one of my e-mails about Curses and Blessings.

Oh man!! See how much I've digressed?!!? Totally out of "topic" XD

'Till next time! ;)

XOXO,
Me

"Family" Outing

woohoo~

The day before yesterday, all of us (G, B, E, K and I) woke up early to start on our journey to Cleland Wildlife Park. Our driver, K, said that we'd be leaving at 9am SHARP, but I guess his 9am was "blunt" XD When I went down to the dining hall to have my breakfast, the only person I saw was E, preparing her breakfast. So, I thought, cool! I still have time for breakfast...hehe~ and so we ended up leaving HH at around 9:15am.

Oh no, I can't really remember EVERY single detail now...anyway, I think that day was the day I really knew how the Adelaide street directory works =P Before that I didn't even bother to find out how it works 'cause I don't drive and the people here who know how to drive know their way to their destinations.

It was super duper cold at Cleland!! Good thing I brought along my jacket although I hate the pink hood. Nevermind that, that morning, I was having a dilemma on whether I should bring my jacket because I felt so warm in the morning with the rays of sunshine shining through my window which made me sweat a little already. In the end, I did not wanna take the risk of catching a cold or anything...so I brought it! haha~

Cleland wasn't exactly fun but it was fascinating seeing the animals and their behaviours. They were a great bunch to observe and the air there was super fresh despite the "smelliness" of animal dungs at certain spots. *arrggghhhh* While walking along the path to the birds section, we literally had to watch where we were going 'cause there were shit everywhere on the floor! Big pile, small pile, scattered pile...you name it, they've got it! >.<

I only knew that kangaroos and wallabies are cousins that day. They look almost alike I couldn't even tell them apart. We had fun feeding them, having their saliva on our hands...haha...K was busy bullying them, putting food on the head of one kangaroo (or was that a wallaby?) so that the other kangaroo would eat from its head. *sigh* animal cruelty =D

E attempted to kiss a kangaroo but I failed to capture a pic of that moment cause the kangaroo was restless and couldn't stop moving. G, B's girlfriend, wanted to see the animals mate cause K said it was interesting to look at...*ROTFL*

Us at Cleland Wildlife Park

After going through 'obstacles' (smelling and avoiding animal dung, nearly got attacked by a 'macho-looking' bird, and got dirt stuck on my shoes), we proceeded to Hahndorf, a German village to have lunch!! Food, glorious food!! We were starving!! We had German sausages and mushroom soup...it was super duper yummy!! *drools*

Lunch at Hahndorf

Our next stop after lunch was Mt. Lofty. K, who has a female alter ego, was craving for cheesecake and so we kind of decided to have cheesecake there but the cafe was closing ever-so-slowly. Haha~ At least we were in time to catch the sunset...I think...and managed to snap a few pictures leaving.

Sunset - is this the beginning or is this the end?

Off we went in search for cheesecake. First K drove to this hotel but guess what?!?! The kitchen was closed! -.-" *sweat* Nevermind. So we went to another place and tadah! There was cheesecake! I ended up having a piece of chocolate mud cake after having seen the HUGE piece of cheesecake. While stuffing ourselves with cake, we discussed about which movie we were going to watch after reaching back and all of us decided on A Walk to Remember!!!!!!! <3 A Walk to Remember is my favourite movie after Titanic...I can watch a hundred times and never get tired of it...Friends who know me know I totally dig anything romantic =D After watching that movie, I can't help but to imagine myself being in Jamie's (the female main character) shoes. How does it feel like having someone you love so much but you can't be together with them forever? Back to the topic. I think that's about it...after watching that movie, I came back to my room, chatted with friends from Malaysia, catching up with each other's lives again.

p/s: I know I'm long-winded but I don't know why I tend to be very detailed in telling stuff so please bear with me.

p/p/s: I can't seem to find a journal I like to start on...Journals here are either ugly or expensive =S I miss writing a journal. Actually planned to start a new chapter of my journal this year when I came cause I thought I'd be on a new journey, meeting new and different people, and doing different things but it's already July and I haven't even started...*sigh* Maybe if I eventually find a journal, I'll abandon this blog XP

Holidays & Memories

It's already the 3rd week of my holidays since I finished my exams right before my other friends sat for theirs. What have I been doing, alot may ask. To be truthful, I don't think I did much...or maybe I did. I started tidying my room right after exams, then I abandoned it for a few days until I had the mood to tidy up again. Whilst waiting for my friends' exams to be over, I took up the responsibility as a nanny to wake them kids up to study...*laughs* Well, basically all I did was nag, nag and nag. =D

On the 3rd day of my holiday, I caught up with Jennifer, whom I knew since college days. We went walking around Rundle Mall shopping for the stuff I needed to get. Due to some miscommunication, we didn't have lunch together so we decided to have our dinner at Rundle Spices instead. Suddenly I felt like we were back to our college days...we were talking and laughing like how we used to...all we did was eat and catch up with each other's lives. Although we are in Adelaide, we don't see each other much 'cause she lives in the city whereas I live in a suburb. Sometimes I do chat with her a little online but that doesn't compare to having a chat face to face. As usual, we'll update each other about some guy stuff...and we had questions on what true love is and if it really does exist. Our common friend is seldom single...after each breakup, she'll be attached again. I asked her once if she did love her boyfriend and she said yes, but I've always been curious...how do you actually transfer ur "love" from one person to another person so quickly?! So, we kind of ended up having a little debate on what true love actually is...and I guess different people have different views...maybe it's the way they were brought up, or maybe it's what they have experienced...i don't know...maybe...maybe...

Anyway. besides meeting up with old friends, I've been to the State Library to borrow stacks of DVDs to watch. Well, not exactly stacks, but they were enough to keep me occupied when I felt bored. Been having weird mood swings as well. Friends who know me well enough will know that I tend to be more emotional during the holidays because it is the only time when I have so much time in my hands that my mind will start thinking all sorts of stuff...about life, love, friendship etc. I think I've been quite annoying 'cause of my mood swings...so, sorry guys (whoever reads this and knows what I'm talking about)!! =')


Since my friend, A, says that my blog shouts out "get outta here!!" cause my blog is all black and no pictures posted...I shall post up some pics I took before leaving for Australia. Crap...going to be emo again...I need a hug.

My first college prom ever!! - Aug '06

Last SAM gathering - Jan '07

Reminds me of movies and food =P

Jennifer's farewell at the new Swatow Lane (?)

Reminds me of high school and Taekwondo - January '07

Remember this Malay guy at Kapitan?? XD

p/s: hey, sorry guys if I haven't been visiting your blogs or drop comments...I don't know why since I came here, I have so many things to do other than online. Maybe 'cause I'm trying not to use too much of internet...anyhow, I still visit your blogs once in a while...all I can say is I still can't believe that I'm already a university student and is currently studying in a foreign land where I don't have my mom and dad with me...I have to make my own decisions and I am glad they trust me with financial stuff.

So blessed...

So blessed, I can't contain it

So much You've gotta give it away...(One Day - Hillsong)

*speechless* = |

I can't believe it!!!

In just 2 days, I missed the bus thrice!!

Wait....

In a week, I've missed the bus 4 times...

In fact, my week is not even over yet...I wonder if there'll b anymore bus-missing =.=

Well, what happened was this:
My friend came into my room last night, and I was sitting at my desk, chatting with ppl on msn...she came and stood right next to my air cond./heater...since it was really cold these few nights, I turned on the heater. So, she found it quite hot standing next to it and turned it to cold air...by the time we finished talking and stuff, it was already 3:30am AND I had to wake up at 7:30am...usually if I sleep late, I would be able to wake up the next morning (the same day) to go to class...BUT the twist is...I forgot to turn the heater on...so I felt sooo cold this morning even though I was under my blanket!! My friend called my room to wake me up, instead of turning on the lights and logging onto the internet to check the weather, I went straight back to bed cause I just wanted to be under the blanket....

moments later....*knock knock knock*

I opened the door and to my horror, my friend was standing there, all dressed up!! o.O
"Do you know what time is it now?! It's 9am already!!"
Obviously, even I start changing and stuff, I would be late for my 9 o'clock lecture...so I decided to skip the lecture and attend the tutorial after that which is at 10am. After sleeping for 10 mins, I woke up, got dressed, skipped breakfast and grabbed a brunch bar to be eaten on the way...and I thought everything would turn out fine...before I could reach the bus stop, I saw the bus passed by right in front of my eyes!!! O.O And I thought to myself "shit! don't tell me I missed the bus again!!" So I continued my walk to the bus stop anyway, hoping that the bus I saw was actually the earlier bus which was late. I waited and waited and waited in the cold at the bus stop...for 20 mins! No bus in sight...So I guess I'm gonna skip my tutorial as well...I didn't wanna walk in the cold, especially after I skipped my breakfast...I think there would be a high possibility that I would just faint by the roadside...yeah, you've guessed it, I crossed the street and walked back to my hostel and here I am, typing this *sweat* post! -.-"'

ok, maybe I shall get back to snuggling in my blanket until 11 something....hopefully I won't miss the 12:30pm bus! =P

Have a great day, guys!! miss ya loads! <3

Darkest days of my life...

the past 2 weeks were the darkest days of my life...I juz felt like hope was gone and nothing matters anymore...hehe~ sounds scary? anyway, that was how I felt la...I felt like I didn't wanna carry on what I'm doing anymore. those days were the times when u need big bear hugs the most, but I juz couldn't really fine someone who can hug me as tight as possible...not because there's no one who would do that, but I couldn't possibly go up to someone and say "can i have a big bear hug?" that would be so damn weird...

so, u would be asking y i felt the way i felt for the past 2 weeks. simple...2 words: stress & assignments. ok, maybe 4 words, + exams coming. and as unorganised as I am, I tend to get stressed out really really easily, exerting unnecessary pressure on myself sometimes I feel like I can no longer breathe o.O

I can still remember last Mon., when I was having breakfast alone in the dining hall, Phyllis, our resident pastor suddenly came over and asked me if I was doing OK. As down as I was at that moment, I didn't think much....all I did was tell her I felt better compared to last week, and she immediately offered to pray for me. My tears flowed down my cheeks as she prayed. it wasn't because of the prayer, it was because I was missing home before that and worrying about my assignments and stuff and someone actually cared. so I guess I was weak and couldn't take it anymore...she was there with me while I was sobbing and sniffing...so I asked her if she could give me a hug...and she did, a big tight bear hug!

after that I felt soooo much better after that...I went to the state library to use the internet after my Human Physiology class. I was checking thru my e-mails when I came across this e-mail from Janice, my Bible Study (BS) group leader. as I read her e-mail, my tears started to flow down again! I know I know, I sound like some princess who can't stand hardship of some sort...nvm that. I realised that I am not as strong as I thought I was...my friend Esther actually said that it's a good thing this way...cause God can touch me more easily which I think it's quite true...=)) I was actually touched by Janice...cause she even cared to send me an e-mail to ask about my week...although I juz got to know her a few months back, she even cared to give me words of encouragement...she's definitely my sis in Christ! and I really thank God for her =')

now all I need to worry about is my Human Physiology presentation on Mon. and how to NOT procrastinate in doing my assignments...hehe~

anyway, this post is so pointless...juz to let u guys know what has been happening in my life in Australia...

'Eventful' Day

Everything that I'm gonna say happened on Monday (23rd of April)...

That day was my friend, XX's (not Xiaxue) birthday, so after my class at 12pm, I sms-ed my friend, E, to ask her if she wants to go hunt for a birthday gift for XX together and so we decided to meet up outside McD. As expected, I ended up eating at McD whilst waiting for E...

Because the inside of McD was packed, I tumpang an old man's table together with another man who couldn't find a place to sit. The old man was friendly, he talked to me about my studies and stuff whereas the other man was super unfriendly, he kept showing his long face...and something that really bothered me was that most of the people here smoke. I think 8 out of 10 smoke here. The old man was smoking but he was considerate enough not to huff n puff RIGHT in front of me. So after talking for a while, the old man left me eating there with the other man. It was way awkward cause we didn't utter a word to each other at all and I tried to keep myself occupied by watching the world go by, which in fact I love to do. Mana tau, he took out a cigarette and started huffing n puffing....*sigh* I just felt like telling him off but decided not to, just in case he's some gangster...=S

When that man left, I was super relieved...no more cigarette smoke! After a few mins, 3 females came and asked me if anyone else was sitting with me so I said no and ushered them to sit down. They were really friendly, and I got to know that 1 of the women was the girl's mom and the other woman was her aunt. They were from Brisbane to visit the girl who's studying here. All of a sudden, I heard excited screaming...that kind of screaming you hear when you're at a concert...I turned around to see a bunch of teenage girls with hp (with cameras) and digital cameras going after a bunch of black guys. They were walking right pass me. Well, the first thing that came into my mind was that they must be some popular celebrities but I couldn't recognise them. So I asked the girl next to me, and she said it was Chris Brown!!! That US black singer!! When I turned around to take a look at his face again, all I saw was the backs of the crowd crossing the road. *sigh* Unexpectedly, they walked pass me again for the 2nd time...woohoo~ and this time I got a clear view of his CUTE face!! <3 and the girl next to me got a pic of him on her digital cam.

So the females were talking among themselves and I was minding my own business........until that girl took out a box of cigarettes and I immediately thought to myself: shit! she's gonna smoke in front of me!! help!! how can her mom allow her to smoke?! this ain't right...smoking is bad for health! -.-" Before I could hold my breath, she already lit her cigarette and I was choking and coughing already...It was damn bad...and she asked "Do you mind if I smoke?" and believe me, I was coughing so badly I couldn't answer her question. The girl said to her aunt and mom "I think we'd better go some place else to smoke, we're killing this poor girl...see, she's coughing already, we're gonna make her sick" and so they moved to the other table and it didn't do any good either cause the wind was blowing my direction and they were at the table opposite me.

When they finally went away, I felt damn relieved...phew~ when....the guy at the table next to me started smoking! My gosh...why do people smoke?! It's such a waste of money and it doesn't even do any good to your health! Since I came to aus, I always have this feeling that I'm not gonna die of old age, but because of 2nd-hand smoke! Even students at my hostel smoke...and they usually smoke at the balcony right outside my room... o.O

Anyway, back to my day...

I went window-shopping after having my McD lunch because winter's nearing and I need more warm clothes. I saw this shirt I particularly like and tried it on in the fitting room. After admiring myself in the full-length mirror for ages, I thought I'd better not buy it cause it wasn't that practical. As I was getting ready to come out of the fitting room, I realised the fitting room was unusually empty! Where was my bag?! Shit! I must have left it at McD!! I can't describe to you how nervous I was!! I rushed back to the same spot I was sitting a few minutes ago and thankfully, my bag was still sitting on the exact same chair I was sitting on...My heart was racing like mad...I was so so so thankful that it was not stolen because I practically had my "everything" in that bag - mobile phone, wallet and my room key. -.-"

Met up with esther, told her what happened before she showed up and we went shopping for XX's b'day present.

Upon reaching our hostel, I changed into my new long-sleeve shirt, tights and a denim skirt. I felt so weird cause I never dressed so feminine since I reached here...and I wore my contact lenses for the first time since February. We took off to this seafood restaurant somewhere near Tee Tree Plaza to have dinner! The dinner was OK, I ate until my stomach looked like a pregnant lady's...I was so so so full...*BURP*

p/s: I'm lazy to type liao...till next time!!

Back from E-camp!!

*inhales deeply* I'm finally back from E-camp which was organised by OCF (Overseas Christian Fellowship)!! woohoo~ Well, one reason I'm thrilled to be back is I missed my bed in my room so much...and the other reason is I've learnt alot in E-camp...I am contented. =)

As a christian my whole life, I have never been close to God although sometimes I do go to church every Sunday. When I come across obstacles in life, I do not turn to Him, instead I do things based on my own limited strength...which is obviously not enough. Now, my faith is renewed, and I shall turn to Him all the time, during good times and the bad. Being christian is no easy task as we need to serve God...it doesn't matter how much and how big ur contributions are, as long as you have the heart to. Now I feel like I'm born again!! He always loves me no matter who I am and what I've done and that is the greatest love of all!! <3>In the dining hall)
I was playing cards with a group of friends and because I wasn't quite sure about the rules, I wanted to swap places with a guy friend, K, who was sitting next to me, so that my friend, E, who was sitting next to K could help me with the game. As I stood up, I kinda jokingly said "wah...your chair must be super hot now!" and I guess there was some misunderstanding. K moved his chair when I wanted to sit down....so I kinda "fell" and K caught me by the waist! Just for your info, K is already taken...and there were so many other people around, and since my friends used to tease us both, I guess both of us were quite embarrassed.

It's ok if you guys didn't find that embarrassing cause I am very very bad in relating stuff again.
so, that was on the 4 days of my 1+ week Easter holiday =) I'll try my best to update my blog as often as I can....so stay tune! haha~ =D

XOXO,
Me

Get to know me better? u judge...=D

I got this personality test from my friend's friend's blog...and since i haven't been posting anything on my blog lately...so, here's something something =P

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Life here...

well, i'm not sure which note i should start on....the lighter one or the not-so-light one?

i'm so sleepy and it had been a really hard day...so i'll juz keep it short.

i have a friend who's mad at me for making fun at him...ok, i admit that i was wrong...but he kinda told me he was angry in a not-so-serious way! not only that, everytime he has a straight face when he tells a lie...so how am i supposed to know if what he said was true or not?! (too lazy to check grammar) anyway, we're not giving in...no way i'm gonna say sorry to him...cause basically i don't think what i did was SO big a deal he has to NOT talk to me...and i don't mind him not talking to me cause he literally messed up my life since i knew him. maybe when i'm calm, i'll tell the whole story....

besides that, i got lost today while coming back from uni cause i wanted to try another route...which was supposed to be easier to walk...cause the roads are not that steep therefore i don't have to use up so much energy...lol....and i ended up walking farther than i should...dumb huh?? =S

p/s: i guess no one visits this dead blog anymore...haha~

- Lin -

I let him go...

haha~ stuff about relationship might juz pop up on some of ur minds...but it ain't about relationship stuff...

on the first day of 2007, i was to meet my friends at 11:30am at gurney plaza for lunch but i overslept so i decided to meet them at 2 something after their movie, which i've already watched a few days earlier.

so, after having my lunch at home, i went to meet up with my friends at a bird's nest shop, where another friend of mine, J, is working.

we went to manila's place to have "lunch" as they haven't had theirs...well, i ordered a choc milkshake and that's it...i juz had some food picked out from my friends' plates =P and i don't know y i was super hyper that day...kept acting crazy...even made the workers at manila's place laugh =S oops~ there was once when a waitress came with a tray with 2 cups of drinks, and one of them had a coffee colour and silly me went "ooooh...is that mine?!" and the waitress went "nooo..." with a smile on her face...the scene was quite funny at that time...i guess i'm juz not prepared to grow up! i love being crazy =D

*fast forward*

my friend, Pras, and i were walking another friend of ours to the carpark cause she had a curfew that day...so there we were, going up the escalator when i turned around to look at the crowd below, like i always do, and there he was, clad in a white t-shirt and jeans with a black belt and shades clipped onto the front of his shirt. he was holding his jacket over his shoulder...somehow there was something that attracted my attention...the woman beside him whom he was talking to was pretty well-dressed too, there was juz something about them that made me stared even longer, cause they did not look like any ordinary ppl. i stared at him for so long my eyes were gonna pop out of their sockets...lol...suddenly, he looked up and smiled...at ME!!! only then i realised that he's a hong kong actor!! my goodness...couldn't believe my eyes...i was too stunned to smile back...when i finally gather my composure, i turned to Pras and exclaimed "oh my God...that's...that's a hong kong actor!!" and she was like "what?! really?! what's his name?" i didn't even realise she was staring at him too!! o.O can't believe he actually caught our eye(s)...we were so mesmerised by his charm! <3 too bad i didn't go after him...cause if i did, i would definitely take a pic with him...well, i didn't cause i didn't wanna dump my friends =S

but now i kinda regret a lil...cause he's so cute...and i could've taken a pic with a cute guy on the 1st day of 2007!!

by the way, i only got to know the name of that actor today, his name is michael tong man lung aka tang2 wen2 long2...

go visit his site at http://michaeltong.net/

i'm ok

after 24 hours, i feel better...but it doesn't mean i'm 100% ok.

sometimes i juz need to let it all out, and the reason y i do not allow comments is because u do not know EXACTLY what happened...so u're NOT fit to give me any advice whatsoever!! but thanks for it anyway...*sigh* maybe from now on i'll not allow any comments on my page...

my anger is fading away....so pls...do NOT provoke me now k?!

shitty situation

when u're not in the mood, or u're feeling nervous because of something...adults juz don't leave u alone, do they?

they think they're right ALL the time...they expect u to tell them something when they don't even ask u in a polite way or they simply assume that u've done something WRONG!!

we teenagers are humans too u know?? we do not like ppl making baseless assumptions! I am 100% sure that adults do not like it when ppl do that to them too! So y do they do that to us??

I'm not sure if it's a coincidence, this shitty situation somehow kinda relates to the song in my previous post.

Not all teenagers tell their parents stuff, including me. y? they'll make judgements... I do know of a friend who tells her mom stuff, which makes me green with envy. If only my mom was my closest friend. Having a sibling as a close friend is great! but when ur mom insists that u tell her what u guys have been talking about, that's juz plain lame...i mean, we have a right to tell or not u know?! and who's there to say that it's wrong or right? because there's no such thing as wrong or right...it only depends on how u view the situation. Wait, I forgot, adults although may be more mature than us, sometimes do not think rationally. Forgive me, I'm so forgetful *sarcasm*

At times I feel like I'm the luckiest person on earth, but at times, I feel shitty being born into this world! ISH!!! Oh yeah, and u do NOT need to study psychology to speak politely, u know?! It's called Public Relations...duh! To put it in a meaner way, it's called MANNERS! since young adults have been teaching us about MANNERS, but where is it when it comes to them?! I simply think life is sooo unfair!

Fine, juz because u lost to the debate...u don't wanna talk to me. I'm absolutely fine with it...

The Rest of My Life *updated*

I'm totally in love with this song and video...it's called The Rest of My Life by Lesser Than Jake. The video's very VERY meaninful...<3


------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lyrics upon mystical's request...ish! =P

I fell asleep last Saturday
Underneath polluted skies
I walked alone on those Jersey nights, and I
Saw the boardwalk start to fall
The emptiness starts to drown
The quiet corners of this town, and I...
Late last night, I made my plans
It was the only thing I felt I could do
Said goodbye, to my best friend
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth

It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life

This is my all time low
Somehow it feels so familiar
Somehow it seems so familiar
I feel like letting go
And every second that goes by
I'm screaming out for a second try
Said goodbye, to my best friend
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth

It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
I've got to live with them the rest of my life
This is the mess I've made
These are the words I can't erase
This is my life support, shutting down, for the final time
And it twists like a blade
And kills me for the rest of my life

If you won't forgive me
The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life...

caught in a whirlwind

I juz got home from an outing with 2 friends of mine...we watched a jap horror movie called "The Haunted Apartments", it wasn't terrific or awesome but i find it waaaaay better than the thai horror movie "Colic" iI watched with my friend the other day. at least this movie has a prominent storyline and all....

sometimes I can be in a crowd but I feel like I'm all alone in the world.

y?? maybe it's me or maybe it's not. BUT it's not for U, who are reading this, to judge either...I do not need that right now!

well, yeah...friends do make fun of and laugh at each other sometimes...no hard feelings. Somehow, there are times when u feel extra down/insecure/"mood-less". And when u wanna let ppl know that u don't wanna be made fun of by being being quiet, ppl juz don't get it, do they?! I tried so hard not to make it a big deal because obviously it's not....but ppl still don't get it. *sigh*
In the end, I am the one suffering because i do not wanna spoil the atmosphere by keeping all my emotions inside. =S I guess I'm not very good in EQ this kinda stuff...now juz leave me alone, I feel shitty.

going to KL

today at 8pm...i'll b on my way to kl by train and will b back on sun nite.

Food Cravings...

I've been having cravings for certain foods these few days!! Not sure if it's because of PMS, or juz my appetite's getting bigger, OR i have a stomach problem. =S i hope it's not the latter...

Anyway, i may go out with a friend, Eve, this Thursday, and hopefully i can satisfy a few of my food cravings =P I've juz finished my lunch and i'm already feeling hungry, thinking about all the food i wanna eat!

This is the list of foods i WANNA eat!!

1. McD's new burger
2. Sushi
3. Waffle
4. Hawker Food (Hokkien mee and Laksa)
5. Hot Dog
6. Spaghetti
7. Cake
8. Anything Cheesy
9. Anything Soupy
10. Sweet Corn

Ok, enough about food...Better get back to studying =P

birthday...

well, i was browsing my friend's friendster page a moment ago...and there were pics of her during her 18th birthday...so, it hit me...for the past few years i haven't really celebrated my birthday!! even the most important one last year! 050505!!! i know...i can never turn back time...and my 18th birthday?!?! i didn't really celebrate it too....not even a few pics =S

therefore...i'm SOOO gonna celebrate my 19th birthday next year!!! though i know i won't b celebrating with my family...cause i'll be going to kl to study...and like my mom always says, old people do not like taking pics...haha...so since i'm still young *ahem* i'll take loads and loads of pics on my BIRTHDAY! =D well, not only birthdays...

p/s: this post is juz about birthdays...haha...nothing much =)

wrong or right?

i think i broke someone's heart deeply...someone who wants to be with me and accepts me for who i am...

it was all for the better...the both of us...=) i'm juz not ready to cross the friendship line...we were much closer when we were juz friends....

i hope he understands...

Another quiz about guys....=)

i juz took a Are u addicted to guys? quiz at www.teenmag.com

Results :

Guy Shy
Sometimes it's not easy dealing with the stresses of trying to have a love life! You may have a ways to go before you get onto easy street in this department, but you can improve your odds right now. Smile at guys. It'll help you relax. A friendly attitude brings the boys around in the same way that moths are attracted to light. Remember, the more positive energy you put out there, the better your results will be. Your confidence level will increase more and more. So, don't be shy, just say hi!

haha~ oh well...*speechless*

reminder to self: finals is in less than a month! JIA YOU!!!!

outing with M

last fri i hung out with a friend of mine whom i've known for nearly 6 years now...since std.6... we learned swimming together and were friends ever since.
however, last fri was the 1st time ever hanging out with her...so...i guess we need to hang out more in the future so that there'll be no awkwardness between us...
anyway, after we bought tickets fot the movie entitled "My Super Ex-Girlfriend" (18PL), we gave them to the ticket attendant and were about to walk in when one of the ticket attendants standing nearby called out to me.."Sorry miss...miss....can i check ur IC pls? Sorry ah...sorry...but u really look 16...sorry ah sorry ah..." =.=" so sweat...i tried so hard holding back my laughter when i heard him apologising repeatedly...so my hands were trembling when i was trying to take out my wallet which contains my IC...=D and my friend, M, was laughing at me the whole time...sheesh! haha...should've worn something more mature...like heels! but it was flattering at the same time...although i juz turned 18 this year, i still look sweet 16! haha~

anyway, will update soon...till then!

relieved + worried

my trials have juz ended last 2 days...but i feel so shitty, knowing that my results will come out shitty =S i think i totally flunked IT!! i left so much blank i don't think i'll even pass....
---------------------------------------------------------------------
on a lighter note, i'm gonna hang out with my friend M today!!! can't wait...never hung out with her before...i'm sure we'll be laughing our hearts out....

then tomorrow i'll be hanging out with 3 other friends from high school!! woohoo!! the 4 of us became close friends because of taekwondo...we've been through ups and downs during taekwondo training....haha...being tortured by our instructors...phew~ i can't wait i can't wait i can't wait!! the 3 of them....3 different personalities...3 different sense of humour....sometimes i juz wonder how we were brought together...<3

i juz woke up...hehe...had a really really good sleep...haven't been sleeping soundly for a very long time!!! @.@

I don't have a clue about guys.

Haha...out of boredom, i went to teenmag.com and took a Do you know what guys think? quiz. I think I know myself too well...refer to my previous post http://troublemaker55.blogspot.com/2006/09/jumbled-up.html about how i'm worried about mixing with guys. =D

DIM ABOUT HIM
Get a clue, girl! You act as if you've never interacted with the male species. Granted some are difficult to decode, but rest assured that they're not impossible! In fact, guys are not all that different from you in some respects - they worry about their looks and get nervous around members of the opposite sex. Once you realize how strong the similarities are, you'll be way close to understanding the differences.

p/s: ok, gotta get back to work....later!

Is it possible?

i was juz wondering....is it possible for 2 ppl to like each other but not be together because 1 of the 2 is afraid of commitments....??

p/s: desperately waiting for trials to be over...ARGH!

laughter the best medicine....

...so true!

the other day i was chatting with a friend of mine who juz came back to penang from KL for her semester break...i told her my side of stories and well, she didn't have the chance to tell me hers. lol...

anyway, i didn't know i could make someone's day! wow...i feel so great, knowing i can actually brighten up a friend's day!! so right now, i'm waiting patiently for trials to b over so that i can hang out with her!! woohoo~ if nothing goes wrong, it'd b our first time hanging out although we've been planning to hang out 2 years ago...=)

-------------------------------------------------------------
today i had lunch with C....and it turns out that a bunch of our friends drove pass us when we were walking...so obviously we didn't see them but they did...talk about pure conincidence! of all places in penang...and they saw us THERE!

updates!

starting this monday, it's my study break for trial exams next week!! =S

as much as i want to study, i can't! cause i've got heaps of assignments to finish...=( right now i have chem and bio reports on my hands...bio report is supposed to be passed up tomorrow and chem report on tuesday. not only that, i'll have to go back to college for replacement classes this week!! sheesh~ now i wonder how i'm gonna study...

oh! i've watched "you, me and dupree" with my friend Eve last Friday. it was ermmm....ok. not really exciting or funny. but juz ok. = however there were some really dirty parts which were censored. mayb it was a good thing afterall...i don't wanna know more about what guys do...=S guys are weird creatures i can never understand.

let me digress a bit. i was chatting with C on msn last 2 days...and honestly i totally forgot he was a guy...so i KINDA insulted the male population by saying they love to stare at girls even though they're not pretty but dressed up sexily...and wow...he, who was well known of having no temper at all...suddenly said "u know...u wu ru guys" then i stopped mid-sentence o.O the next thing he said was "u think u can angry nia ah? i cannot ah?" whoa! haha~ i got soooo scared of him after that...yesterday he even had to convince me that he'll never scold me / get mad at me...even asked me not to be afraid of him...i told him i have to watch what i'm saying when i'm talking to him and he went "haiyo...juz say what u wanna say la..i won't scold u wan...believe me la" =D

oh! something funny happened on Thursday!! haha...i was in the general lab chatting with C on msn...he was a few computers away from me. and i had to change a comp cause my friend, N wanted me to sit next to her so that i could teach her how to draw a Data Flow Diagram...so i typed "wait for me, gotta change comp" he said ok. when i finally changed comp, i turned around and saw C's friends asking him out for lunch. then i turned to look at the comp screen, before i could type anything, it says "the user may not reply because he/she appears to be offline"...wah!! i was sooo mad...he's always like this!! can't even say bye before signing off is it?!! so i turned to complain to N...i started saying things like "u juz look at him!!!! he's always like that...can't he juz say bye before signing off?!?! even B says bye to me when he wants to go offline!! ARGHHH!!" and the next thing i know, i received an sms from C which says "okla, bye bye." i immediately showed N the sms....both of us turned around and SHIT! C was still there! that means he heard me complaining about him!! it was sooo embarrassing!! that's y he sent me that sms...haha...anyway, i've related this story to a few ppl...so it may not seem as funny as it was already.

ok, gotta finish off my bio report...till next time!

misunderstood...

well...i found out recently that i've been misunderstanding that person after all...that person has its own problems too...i'm so stupid. =S

i've decided...

...to juz not care too much about that person anymore because the more i do, the more disappointed i get. And this isn't fair to me...I can never mistreat myself...I hate feeling down all of a sudden because of that person...I'm supposed to be happy-go-lucky.

It's so pointless to care when that person doesn't even know u do...so, y torture myself right? yup! That is why I'm here to promise myself i shall never feel bad/sad because of that person ever again...From now on I'll juz act as if that person doesn't exist...but that'd be incredibly hard since i see that person every day...in college!!

*sigh* I wish i was born a stone-hearted guy...haha~ juz one of my crazy imaginations! =D

Anyway, won't be blogging anytime soon...not that anybody cares though. =)

help!

i need to be more disciplined!!!

p/s: i know this ain't a post

better

hmmm...yesterday i was very down...today's better...dunno y...mayb because i've decided i don't wanna care about C anymore!!!!! =) phew~

jumbled up

it's been forever since i last updated my blog....

i've been pretty occupied by assignments...emotions...and the arrival of our trial exams!! =S i have a feeling my end is near...i'm feeling sooo lazy nowadays...no mood to even do my IT project!! *sigh*

don't tell me it's PMS...haha~ i hope not...hmmm...could it be the weather? i'm always feeling down when it's raining...dunno y...

nothing interesting has happened lately...well, actually there are...but...oh well, save it for another day when i'm really really in a good mood to type every single detail out.

---------------------------------

it's time for me to reflect on my life in college...haha~ although i still have a few months left...

i never thought i'd enjoy college this much...minus the deadlines and stress! maybe it's because i've been studying in an all-girl schol my whole life..ok, mayb not my WHOLE life...but 5 years of my life, because the 6 years before that i was totally anti-guys...it ain't pretty =P or maybe because i was pretty much a guy in primary...then as i went to high school, and the only people i mixed every day were girls so i guess it helped me become a lil more feminine. =D

now that i'm in college...i mix with both genders...every day i can see girls and guys mixing together...something i would not see in high school...and yeah...being a teen girl, i tend to have minor crushes on cute guys now and then...haha~

in a blink of an eye, 8 months have passed! juz like that!! i can still remember in january, i was dreading to go to college...cause everyone else was still sleeping soundly in their beds while I had to wake up at 8am every morning! it's juz not fair!! =D not only that, i was kinda worried about how i was gonna mix with guys again...it's like they're not the same species as i am...lol...

but whad'ya know? it's September already...another 2 months and i'm out of here! i have been waiting so anxiously to get out of Disted because i wanted a new adventure...in uni, being independent, making new friends, meeting people from around the world and be disciplined.

come to think of it, i kinda enjoyed my college life. i could be my crazy self and all...although some people may find it inappropriate for a girl to laugh so loudly...or act so roughly...bah! whatever!! i don't give a damn anymore...people have no rights to judge me!

oh gosh...this is a pretty long post...and i've been digressing alot!

hehe~ till next time.
