Weeeeell
as a reply to wenene's comment,
I'm going to stop blogging indefinitely - I know, it's quite saddening. I've just been really busy, and I know I've been blogging for so many years that it's kind of been a part of me. It has been a good waste of time, a good de-stressing activity, and good way to be nostalgic (by posting photos), a good place to voice out my opinions, sharing my thoughts, emotions and feelings to the world and just expressing myself. It's a good place to reflect too, and I've always enjoyed blogging.
It's hard to stop, I get the urges to blog once in a while.
But, we move on, everyone does.

So, till then,
toodles, indefinitely. I'll be around in spirit!

Love,
Pickles.

GUESS WHO'S BACK IN THE OVEN!
No, I'm not pregnant.
I meant the oven, as in, ADELAIDE.
Can I blog more later? I promise.
But, leadership camp (Year 12 girl boarders, uhh surfing and horseriding?! Leadership, Yeeeeeah.) on Friday and Saturday.

Guess who's got TONS OF HOMEWORK? Me. (particularly Chem and Math, EVERY DAY. Since YESTERDAY ie. day one.)
Therefore, Year 12 is tough shit.

Guess who's come down with an AWFUL FLU/COLD/SORETHROAT? ME!
The heat isn't helping much. I've had meds from everyone in the boarding house who cares - thanks loves :)
.. but I seriously think I might still be sick. HAHAHHAA. Only time (and more sleep) will tell.
But, CHEM! And I'm actually learning new stuff. Uh, s p d f g shells. Someone please save me, Chem isn't fun anymore when you don't know the syllabus anymore.
GRARRR stupid energy shells. And this is only chapter ONE. DAY TWO. of school.
I've got a good ish teacher - Mr Hatzi. Somehow the heat makes me feel like sleeping in ANY class regardless of how good a teacher is. Pft.

Tons of Math work, but
guess who's got one free a day? ME!
But guess who's got TWO frees a day - including double free after lunch on Wed AND Fri?
.. not me, but Nat.
fekuhasulkfhasufhlksaf.

... okay time for work.
I think my comeback and my blogging/uploading photos/updating you guys about my life will come to a SHORT(I hope) hiatus.
Maybe if I end up in the infirmary.
MY LIFE WOULD SUCK WITH YOU, flu. Plus the heat.
GRARARARARA.

Kk seriously, CHEM TIME.
Toodles.

In reality,
I don't know how to dance, I can't dance, still can't dance. Two left feet. Although I would wish for superb and unawkward dancing skills - be it ballroom or clubbing style. Aaaaah.
Listening to 'Little Waltz' again..
Watched Twilight last night.
My verdict? Quite interesting. Although Robert Pattison is not hot. Imo anyway. Hahaha. It was quite interesting and I'm glad I didn't read the book yet. I didn't feel that time passed by so slowly/quickly. Which is good. I think if I have read the book and watched the movie, I would've been quite disappointed because the movie versions of books are always crap.

Most of the time anyway.

On the other hand, I saw the poster for Angels and Demons. I'm so watching it! Although it comes out in May 2009. I'm grabbing someone to watch it with me! I'm a huge fan of Dan Brown's books, I just have to see it :) hopefully I don't get nightmares of Silas.
or a (hot??) vampire watching me sleep.
The thought of that is half daunting.
and half flattering.
I'd like someone I love to be by my side always. Ah how cheesy, but it's true! Someone to be there for you, be your best friend, your lover, your future, your protector, your saviour, your personal Russell Peters.. (I mean that last comment as .. your personal comedian! Who doesn't love a funny person? :))
I'm living in a world of Rapunzel and Snow White to be thinking that people like that will exist in my life.. haha. I need to dispel all this bullcrap really. Face reality that .. no one will ever be my knight, with or without the armour.

Got back exam results. Maybe I shouldn't set such high expectations of myself, because right now I'm not feeling very much joyful about it. I'm not like, HELL YES YAY!
I'm like,
yeah okay.. I guess so.
See what I mean by not ever being satisfied by anything?
I guess that's the only way you can achieve something high.. if you aim for something WAAAAY higher. But I reckon MY goal was attainable by MY standards.. I don't know. I set high standards for myself, don't achieve it, and be like.. yeah oh well okay. I'm not going to cry or not crying about my results, because it would be quite a stupid thing to do cause I'm sure other people covet for my marks (CEHH :P)

Home soon, yay yay?
Got stuff planned for Sunday! Family related things though. Not that I had friend-related things planned..
I've got dinner tomorrow night at Sheila's house though. HAHAH Her house sounds so very funny cause the locks are on the OUTSIDE and not inside the room. Which is very weird. Hahaha. I wouldn't be really amused with that really.

Nat gave me a bag of hers :) thanks ! (although she doesn't read it..) it's like a Thai 'I'm not a Plastic Bag' bag! I was hunting for a bag of that size too to replace my blue and white striped one I got from a magazine. It's so appalling, I brought it to the city one day and I saw someone with the exact same bag! I'm like.. ah wow. Dammit! Hahaha.

What's it with girls and people getting the same stuff as they do? Like,
for e.g. if you had the same shoes I did (I have the same Esprit slippers as Dawn, hehe). I know Sherr and I have same shoes of different colours. Mine black and hers brown. Hahaha.

Diva has this sales store in the city, next to the Myer food court. I reckon Diva stuff are only worth buying when it's on sale, hahaha :) Maybe it's because I'm cheapo. But it's true! I'm not going to pay $15 for Diva jewellery which will rust anyway! So, pay 1/3 the price :)

My blogpost is so wordy that I'm sure it's not very appealing for people to read anyway. How upsetting! Aiyaaah I have no pics :(
How's this?


Uh, I am watching you with 9 eyes?
Hahaha I'm sure that really DID put you to ease.. especially when you sleep tonight..
Did I tell you I'm a friendly (hot JKJK HAHA) vampire?
Who will watch you when you sleep...

NYAHAHAHAHA
just kidding!

oh no I can't change my font size.. I'm scaring myself!
Toodles :)

December 3rd, 2008

I'm so addicted to this song that Gizzle has - Little Waltz by Basia Bulat. It's so good! And so hard to download.. if you can get it then get it! It's awesome :) heehee. It's so.. chilled. Sigh~

EXAMS ARE OVER!
Meant to go to Glenelg yesterday after exams and room-cleaning because the Burung Kakak Tua was being a burung -_- we caught the bus to the city at around 5PM+, so we were kind of late.. and we were skeptical(sp?) about whether the oyster place that Neena wanted to go to would be open. So to avoid disappointment when we get to Glenelg, we hung around Chinatown, ate dumplings and rolled back to the boarding house.

I'm going to pop by the school to get some of my exam results because 3/4 of my school day tomorrow will be spent at choir rehearsal. Hahaha.. I hope my results will be good *crosses fingers!*. Don't know man. Aaaah hati deg-degan hahaha. Systole diastole.. contracting and relaxing. Contracting more frequently tho. Whoooosh.

And then head down to Rundle to hang out with Sheila.. it's been a while since I last hung out with her so yeah! Nyanyanyanyanya.
I'm going to make Kew's birthday card soon. I know it's way early but who cares! I don't want to bring back my stationery. OH NO I realised I don't have glue.. wth! I'm going to borrow Dana's before she packs hers away.

Okay toodles :)

December 1st, 2008

It is Monday.
Nat and I have been watching the Korean drama 'My Girl'. Old, I reckon. But who cares? Good 'ol Korean dramas :) Giselle's probably watching it on Sherr's laptop right now.. hahaha. I have Indo tomorrow. I should write out a vocab list, esp. for Pengaruh Barat..
Nat is sleeping on my bed. Haiyah!! LOL =P

How was my weekend..
Did some driving on Saturday, and then more drama watching, packing, got my nails done with STICKERS from Nat (YAY thanks Nat :)) althought unfortunately the two stickers on my right hand have come off :( from all the packing, shoving things upstairs.. AIYAH what a waste. I have an empty bottle of vodka in my room.. it looks nice! Hahahaha. What can I do about it.. I hope I don't get into trouble for having it -_- it's not even mine! It's EMPTY. I'd say it's not mine, I got it from my cousin/sister who gave it to me as decoration.. (che and Boy, hope you don't mind? Hahahaha) and yes. It looks pretty though..

LOL Nat and I walked to McDs on Magill Road today to grab some lunch. We actually didn't know the way there.. when we finally reached Magill Road, we're like, should we turn left or right? So we turned left, and then some guy said we walk further east (back from where we came from) and then after a while we still didn't see McDs, so we asked another guy and he said walk towards the city (west, which is the opposite direction..) and FINALLY we got there. So tiring.. Sigh LOL

Can't wait to go home! Six more days :) really hoping Leeners will be back so I can bum at her house daily or we can go shopping every day HAHAHA until I return to Adelaide.. yeah quite a loser to be flying in and out - not my fault, we thought my sis's graduation would've been pretty late! I wouldn't have minded staying at my sis's NEW (whoo) apartment; can probably take the bus to bug Kewkew or something hahaha. But oh well.

ESL class having a movie excursion to see Australia - I'm actually quite keen on it! And at night we're going to watch Twilight.. that's going to be such a movie day! My eyes will go crazy. Hahaha. And on Thursday there is Choralfest.. choir thingy. Fudge I don't remember my notes or lyrics.. and I've packed them up -_- oh jeez. My walls are empty, my room feels quite empty.. oh how depressing!

And I was packing my clothes today and I realised I have a lot of hangers. Maybe I'm being a bit like my dad and hogging hangers (or rather, buying TONS of them. I'm not kidding you.. I'm not suprised if I have 50 or MORE). My dad is so funny, he hogs hangers and leaves them HANGING. I put them inside my cupboard.. Hahaha. Hangers are useful okay!

My room smells of McDs right now.. that's for eating in the room! Agr!
I should write out vocab lists right now :( INDOOOO AIYAHH
And I think I'll head down to the beach with Neena and anyone else interested to go down to Glenelg tomorrow.. POST-EXAM CELEBRATION! =D Neena loves her oysters. She wants to go down just to eat oysters.. haha.
This means that I think I need to draw out a bit more money off my account.. HMMMM =P
whoops.

Okay Indo time!
ONE MORE DAY!
Toodles.

November 28th, 2008

Math in half an hour..
I've never really prepared so much for Math ever! Besides the cramming for Add Math last time memorising formulae which they give now.. (ie. double angle formulae which we don't do in Math Studies, haha sucks to do Speccy!) and now.. the whole binomial probability thing to be done in the calculator.. last time I had to do the ancient way of calculating the Z-score and then referring to the table book!)

Okay this is so funny, Giselle and Dana are in my room and Giselle said OK STUDY TIME first person to speak will have to buy everyone here Boost juice!
So we're like silent and like making noises HAHAHA cause 'Kiss Kiss' was playign on my iTunes so Dana was doing kissy noises.. HAHAHA =D=D=D=D

Funny people..
I'm planning Kew's birthday card.
I'm one month early..

HAHAHA.
Time for exam. WISH ME LUCK!
TOODLES!

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

Accounting done! Only Math and Indo to go.. If only I could have them both tomorrow! But nooo.
But then again, probably having some dinner thingy at Sheila's new house - just a few roads away from where it used to be. Something to look forward to after exams! Hahaha..
I want to watch a movie :( I have a free movie pass from some ESL thingy! But I have no one to watch movies with me, hahaha.. not when they have to pay and I don't. Hahahaha. How sad. Any good movies out anyway?
Oh yeah, gonna watch Twilight next Wed with the boarding house.. that better be good! :)
My room looks so empty.. My desk still gas stuff and all. But my shelf and my soft board's all empty. I have a calendar and a few pics - one of the formal and a sticker photo of Kew and I. But yeah..

It's raining outside.
Eh it stopped!
Now I feel like my desk is quite a mess cause my shelf is empty.. I need to buy boxes to put more crap in it.
Do it on the weekend I reckon.
I can't wait to go back!
So tired from packing.
I need to do Math.
Blehblehbleh PRESSUREEE

Okay :)
toodles!

November 26th, 2008

I think I have a screwed up biological clock now..
I just slept since 11am till around 3pm.
Then pigged out on junk food. Ah fuck it.
I'm so over school it's not funny.
Or maybe it's one big joke, hahaha..
How am I going to sleep tonight?!

Chem this morning. Almost lost some free marks, that would've been utterly devastating.
Accounting tomorrow. All I feel like doing is sleeping..
... sigh.
Yeah I'll go do something else.

Dinner tonight is going to be shit anyway. Lasagne. I hope we have Caesar salad. But.. bwah.
I just want to sleep forever.
Toodles.

November 25th, 2008

By the way, I got a reply from MR LEIGHTON HAHAHAHA.
Oh well.

Exams have begun.
I just want to get over and done with it.. and GO HOME!
Although I'm not like a million percent enthusiastic about going home just yet, there's the packing to do - I have to clear out my WHOLE EFFING ROOM and that will actually take up a full day I reckon? But yeah.. I have so much stuff to clear from my room :( oh well.
One exam per day, bwah?
Had ESL today.

ESL is actually quite difficult. For me anyway. First, you have a fast-paced listening comprehension. Just like a news report on actual TV - not some special one for kids (we do the kiddier one in class exercises. Hahaha.) But the good thing is that we know about current affairs (kind of). The exam listening thingy was based on 'Australia' the movie - starring Nic Kidman and Hugh Jackman (hottie! :)) so that's pretty cool. Got to memorize quotes for the extended response based on the novel. The novel we read, imo, is quite easy to be read - it's entitled The Unpolished Gem, about a Chinese-Cambodian girl living in Melbourne. Usual trials and tribulations, nothing special really.

So lay off me for doing ESL already!
I'm stretching my patience here debating with almost every other person who reckons I should be doing mainstream English rather than ESL.
I'll list out MY arguments for you before I go haywire and bomb you with my wrath hahaha I can be quite a fiery bitch when I want to. Not like I have been unleashing much of that recently. I'm actually quite zen ^_^

1. I speak Cantonese at home okay! And Malay, not exactly on a day-to-day basis but I can come up with proper sentences and order teh tarik..
2. My subject choice is my fucking subject choice so please. I decided to use some brain which I think I have, albeit pea-sized (as so implied by my sister), and choose fucking subjects in which I can get fucking 20s for! Why do fucking Specialist Math and get a 16 when I can do Math Studies, NOT get scaled, and get a 20? (or at least, aim for it.) Same goes with ESL. I'm not going to mainstream English since when I am eligible to do ESL. I'm going to use this to my advantage! I don't care what you think. It just pisses me of when people go fucking on and on for this WHOLE YEAR saying that I should be doing ESL. I'm ashamed to admit my weaknesses, but I've cried once over it and I'm not going to fall down with your criticisms.

(okay, my second point was a bit passionate and anger-ridden.. but it's true! If that gets people to stop harping on me and leave me with my own hole, so be it!)

3. Uh I think point 2 said it all really.
4. Like how I don't care about what YOU think I should be doing, I'm going to be doing subjects in which I can score, and not put in 110% effort just to get an A for a harder subject. I don't have any prerequisites for the course I'm going to do - all I need is a SUPER HIGH TER so I'm aiming for that. AAAH headache.
5. Besides, me being in the ESL class might drive the rest of my class to want/need to work harder - it's good for them! But it might drive them to insanity, and hence persuading my ESL teacher to shift me up to mainstream English. But it is all my fucking prerogative so
please leave me alone?
Yeah.

Hmm.. yeah I get a bit angry when I have to explain to people who ask me about my doing ESL. And they go all.. "I don't speak English in my home country, I speak in some other language, but I'm doing MAINSTREAM English!"

That's your fucking choice.
Not my fault you're doing English as a first language.
If you really want to do ESL, go ahead!

AAAAH
Yeah I'll stop about that whole ESL thing. It just ticks me off SO BAD. I wish I could just record my voice about all these points, and debate to whoever who questions me again before I explode. I try to remain calm. I actually suceed, but when I'm alone or blogging, I'll..
have this urge to rant out to my blog about how distressed and ANGRY I get.
An angry Pickle is not a good sight.
It was easy to type swear words at that portion, hahaha.

Chemistry tomorrow!
I hope I'll do well.. :)
After my morning exam, I headed off back to a very good sleep :)
I think I might do that soon, hahaha.
Chem chem chem I'm going insane! Aaaaah..

It is now nearly the end of the year.
I miss my BFF Leeners Yap :( :( :(
and the rest of CLTWY!

AAAH :(
I gained weight too, on the other hand. But I'm too tired to do exercise. Tennis when I get back, I must! I miss tennis :(
I have no one to play tennis with. The Kew is lazybum/out of action and I think he might get a bit annoyed if I asked Russell.. besides. Russell didn't really want to play with me. Probably cause I 1. suck and 2. the whole Kew thing. Not like I'd want to elaborate more on it so whatever.

I am off for another nap =]
toodlesssss!

November 23rd, 2008

OMG OMG OMG I SO HAVE TO POST ABOUT THIS.
I was trying to book The Grange restaurant in Hilton Adelaide (shameless free promotion : www.thegrangerestaurant.com.au) run by award-winning MALAYSIAN (YAA MALAYSIA BOLEH) chef Cheong Liew. So I found out that the place does not open on Tuesday nights, and that is the night of my sister's graduation and it would make more cow (lol pardon the pun. For che. No one else would get it.. maybe except for Boy as well) sense to have the dinner on a Tuesday night.

And the thing is that they are not open on either a Sunday, Monday OR Tuesday night. So that leaves Wednesday and beyond.
My parents will only be around (don't stalk me please, as attractive as I am.. LOL JK. I'm not stalker-worthy really, because I reveal everything online that stalkers lose the fun in the chase of knowing intimate details of a person) from a Sunday MORNING until Wednesday NIGHT - I think they take the Wednesday morning flight down to Melbourne then fly back to KL and arrive on a Thursday morning because they need to go for my mom's boss's 80th birthday dinner BIGBIG event (Well, quite big la ha if they're flying back for it.. they promised the soon-to-be-80-year-old man!!) on Thursday night.

SO
I know I went a huge round (mulberry) bush, but
I'll get to my point soon..
So I called the reservations place, and yes it is a Sunday night, so they are not open. So they directed me to the concierge, who then helped me patiently after getting cut off THREE FUCKING TIMES - damn the poor reception in my room. Or. THE BOARDING HOUSE IN GENERAL AAAAAAAHHHHH *stabs self. Naaah*

And she said.. okay, e-mail the manager of The Grange, see what he can arrange.. jai.leighton@hilton.com (oh wow, I just made him e-mailable to fellow stalkers who read my blog! I'm sure he will be glad if you are asking to book a table in The Grange.. EH HE BETTER GIVE ME COMMISSION FOR ADVERTISING. If he asks how you knew of the Grange, ask him to CONTACT ME! I WANT COMMISSION! I am too poor for my own good).

So, reading the name, Jai Leighton, the header of my e-mail went like this :
Dear Ms. Leighton, blablablabla.

And then, I do some web surfing in The Grange's website...
I stumbled upon an exerpt off Cheong Liew's Team.

(as copied and pasted..)

Jai Leighton

Restaurant Manager

For a man not quite 23, Jai Leighton is certainly accomplished. Growing up in the amusement industry provided an entertaining childhood which fostered a love of interacting with people. From the tender age of 7, Jai was working with his grandparents in a food van where he began to take an interest in food.
 

and I'm thinking..
OH SHEEPERS I JUST ADDRESSED HIM IN AN E-MAIL AS
MS. LEIGHTON!
Only I can do this.
I'm sure other people have done this before!
I'm doubting whether we would get to have that private function thingamajiggy HAHAHAHAHA
I e-mailed an apology about the gender confusion..
Sigh doesn't JAI sound like a girl's name?!

.. I hope he doesn't stumble across my blog (not like he is THIS BORED to Google his own name..)
and find out I have not only revealed his identity to my (loyal!!) readers,
but I just insulted his name, saying it sounds like..
a girl's.

I'd be quite certain I'm not going to get a reservation, no matter how many millions of dollars my parents (actually won't HAHAH) fork out..
OH WELL :)
This is so funny.
At least I had something cool to blog about.
Hell yeah.
Time for the Chemistry yo.
MR Leighton, if you happened to Google yourself and find your name on this post,
I AM SORRY I SAID YOUR NAME SOUNDS LIKE A GIRL
And I had mocked your gender.
I'm sure you are very manly.....
and congratulations on your achievements??

Yeah.
I'd better stop rambling ^_^
TOODLES!

Hello!
Okay, I haven't been blogging because I have been (trying to) STUDYING! (okay if you read this sentence INCLUDING the brackets it would have called for incorrect grammar! And I have my ESL exam first thing too. Hahaha.. need to polish up on my grammar?)

My week has been
very very crazy hahaha.
Not much to do with studies.
I'm not going into much detail about this, because everyone reading this blog will probably have a rough or detailed idea about what exactly I'm talking about, so..

(just like receiving an Oscar award, which I am awaiting for in the next few years. NO I HAVEN'T BEEN ACTING MY EMOTIONS :()
I'd like to thank everyone who's expressed concern over me.
I'm a bit lazy to name names, for fear of some people thinking they deserved to be mentioned earlier than other people, and so on so forth.
So, you know who you are.
Thanks for being there when I needed help the most. Before I collapsed, deep and quick into an abyss where I'd know nothing more than darkness and depression.
Thank you for the nights of sitting by my bedside and watching me bawl my eyes out, looking the most unattractive I can look like.. (although I find it a bit impossible for me to look unattractive.. CEH WAH JOKING ONLY LOL don't worry I'm not so up myself..)
Thank you for the worries you held when I looked as if I was going to tear myself apart and I told you not to intervene, thank you for the times you patted my back, gave me a reassuring hug which brought me back to face reality bravely. I try to act strong, I try to say "Yeap, I'm good" when deep inside I'm just crying like a little baby.

last but not least
Thank you for being my friend, a true friend.

:)
on a brighter note..


thanks Sher :) this is the only time I can ever be next to Shia LaBeouf :D

Okay I should be doing something, being the nerd I am.. super hardworking YAA go meee! LOLOL
Oh so on last Saturday, went out for dinner with Sherr's dad (who flew ALL THE WAY from MALAYSIA :O awh :)..) and Dana, Gizzle, Chia and Sherr's bro. Hahaha. HAD LOBSTERS AH YUMMY :) so content. So fat!!

Funny thing! It's like, I told Giselle to text Sher's dad to tell him that Dana and I baked cake for Sher as like a belated cake but..
Gizzle texted Sher herself!!!
:O
:O:O:O:O:O:O

*in the car on the way to House of Chow, once we reached*
Sherr's dad : "Hmm.. don't forget to get the stuff from the boot.." (ie. the cake)
Giselle : "Yeah, the cake." (I didn't know how it went, I forgot)
PK : "!!" *thinking Sher doesn't know*
G : "Didn't you tell me to text Sherr? I was wondering why you asked me to.. but I did anyway."
PK : "!!!!!!!!! AH!! I thought I asked you to text her dad.. OH NO!!!"

LOL surprise element FAIL!!!
Oh well :P it's still edible and it's Tuesday. Oreo Choco cake (made with a cake mix. MEL CHIA I AM SO NOT CHEATING OKAY. I STILL ADDED IN INGREDIENTS! Like vegetable oil, egg and water hahahaha). Making one for tute on Thursday. Hahahaa.

Nyehhie nyeh.
Okay I'll do something else.

Sing for absolution.

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
OMGOMGOMG
I FOUND THE SONG I'D ALWAYS BEEN LOOKING FOR from the BTN =)
It's 'Closer' by Kings of Leon.
:D!!!!

Weekend is here. I won my singles (YAY) but lost my doubles. We were paying a team above ours! Like, I was in the Es and we played against Walford's Ds. I wasn't so confident about winning singles, because we'd already lost doubles - and my opponent was rather formidable (zomg what good England I use. lol) so yes. But I think I won because our match was the last of ALL matches - and it was 10+AM and it was getting a bit warm. Finished by 10 to 11, but yeah. 6 - 1!
I need to work on my serve because I lost that 1 from my service. Uhh yes. Very embarrasing :(

I am munching on Noodle Nuggets by Trident. They're heaps yummy! :)
If I suck on it it tasted like lap cheong. Yuck.
... I finished the cup oh no..

I have been farting like HEAPS lately.
I think it's because of my soft drink diet lately. ALL YOUR FAULT KEIN-KEW CHAI (I doubt you'll read this, isn't your computer zonked out or something? Sniffle..) cause I use my lunch ticket and get you Coke and thus I drink some Coke too! But from now on, FRUIT JUICE it is for me! Or a bottle of water.
The path to less farting..

Well.. what else did I do today.
Munched on noodles, DOWNLOADED THAT AWESOME KINGS OF LEON song..
Went down to Marryatville with Dana because FROM SHER'S BLOGPOST about the absence of a birthday cake (Sher, I'm sure you wouldn't have read this before we surprise you..), we decided to bake her a cake. We crushed Oreo bits and baked it along with the cake. Crushed some Oreos and sprinkled it on top too. I HOPE IT'S YUMMY. (We used a cake mix so we conned. Oops. Oh well. I think I'll do the same for tute cake, at least it'll be yummy - I hope!!)

But I think Dana and I did a pretty good job with the cake :)

Boarders' orientation tomorrow morning.
Oh no.
I need to WAKE UP EARLY OH NOO :( how annoying. Apparently there's good brekkie but I'd rather have sleep than brekkie!
Chem and Math tests on Monday.
Indo oral on Monday too.
AAAAAAAHAHA :'( (that's a cry by me, btw.)
Better get this lazy arse to do somezing.
TOODLESSSSS!

November 13th, 2008

Accounting test tomorrow.
Ohmygods ohmygods.
I can't think. AAAH :(
and yes
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down.
I wanna sleep. Goodnighttt and toodles.

November 12th, 2008

Since everyone is allowed to have happy and sad moments I believe I am entitled to my emo distressed post now..

I bet you, the heat is getting to me.
Along with PMS.

I just feel like crying.
I just feel like closing my eyes, sleeping and letting the wind take me away to a land far away from here.

I hate being discontented. But I always am. I think about something, make observations, and realise
how very dissatisfied I am.
I'm so annoyed that I just want to cry. I'm weak, and I know it.

... sigh hahaha.
It's getting cooler tomorrow so yay I hope that makes me feel better.

ZOMG went down the Parade today to buy a heap of things. Bought them, got back to the boarding house by 5pm.. and then Dana realizes she forgot the photostated stuff that she sent down to the Parade..
So we bus-ed it down back to the Parade, and then walked back because the next bus was going to come in the next 20 minutes.

Did so much of exercise today, pretty proud of myself. But I'm tired now I think. My legs anyway.
The path to nice legs, hahaha..

Why does everyone feel depressed?
Okay not everyone.
Maybe if my world revolves around me and if everyone were me, then yes everyone is depressed.
I'm not SO bad now I suppose, I've cried it out a little - a tear or two does the trick to satisfaction. For the rest of the week, I hope.
Until I think about how I'm never satisfied again, then I let out another tear and go on with normal life, putting on that mask people call as your face.

How was school..
I don't know.
One and a half more weeks before Year 11 is (kind of) over.
And on comes Year 12.
Be surprised, but I'm not scared of it coming.
I don't care. I'll just brave the storm myself, if that is all that takes.
(Uh.. Yeah whatever I don't get myself.)

I want to finish Year 12 and get over and done with high school.
I've thought of what I want to do after uni. I want to teach English in Japan - idealistic as it sounds, I want to learn Japanese in uni. And then, teach for a WHOLE year. Live in Japanese culture and stress.

So the point of my post is
I'm a troubled little kid.
I'm never satisfied.
No one can satisfy me.
No one can make me feel content, no matter what.
Guess I'll have to pull through myself.
Toodles.
 

November 9th, 2008

Let's play a love game.

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

My Saturday.. okay guys.
I WON MY TENNIS MATCHES!
YAYYYY!
First time in the whole season. Like really. I'm not kidding you.
As I mentioned. It's not that I'm a bad player. I'm not very consistent I reckon. And my opponent WAS bad. I knew I could beat her.
I've defeated her before, I swear. I feel so bad for her. She's some Asian Wilderness kid who doesn't have anyone to hang out with during tennis matches :( she looks nice, so docile, so kind.. but yeah I think I remember I accidentally had my ball (tennis ball, please) flying towards her.
And her doubles partner.
Not my fault!!!

I didn't do much all day. Had lunch, showered, and
I revised for exams.
(Accounting, to be exact) Obviously I didn't finish. But I tried! I did some work. Wrote a bit of self-notes.
First (baby) steps, first steps!

And later, watched some tv shows. Greek! 
I can't imagine living in a sorority. Would I survive pledging? Omg. Watching all the bitchiness and the whole orientation thing. Sigh. Would I survive the sugar-coated cotton-candy-filled land of living in a sorority house, where everything is pink and cupcake-y.

Let's put aside talk about Greek and..
picture time?


My name, in Greek.
With love from Greece, from Shenny my (sugar? naaah)daddy :)
I MISS YOU SHENNNNN
Hahaha e-mail me already :( I doubt you read my blog anymore..


The earrings Fariz's/Aiman's mommy made. Aren't they pretty? They come with a matching necklace.


:)


FORK AND SPOON
If the boarding house runs out of cutlery, I have an alternative!
(yes, my earrings..)
They're not exactly the RM10 for 3 variety.. I got it from 'Envy Mie' in Telawi. Too cute to resist okay!
(But you should see Nat's earring collection.. THEY'RE HELL CUTE! Like, giraffe earrings, a tuk tuk very symbolic of Thailand, a chair.. :O What more can you want?


A pair of glamorous green/blue-ish earrings. (very cheapcheap from Diva when they had one of their massive clearance sales. I know, you're going to be all.. Diva EWW They'll rust in like 5 days. I don't want this pair to rust, it's pretty :( )
Those are the earrings I wanted to match my formal dress..
I was hunting for a dress to match those earrings. HAHAHA.
Quite funny huh. In the end I failed, I got a black and white dress LOL.

Okay in reality I typed this post late at night on Saturday. But I couldn't finish it, so I'm typing more now.
Guess what I realised?
I opened up my homework diary and realised
I have homework.
:(
Why did I start on revision! AAAAH
Okay homework time.
Toodlessss :(

November 7th, 2008

That song reminds me much of Seladang marching..
and I'm proud for being a Fort Minor fan and choosing it as a marching thingamajiggy.
Although we weren't the most impressive in marching - I remember I burst out crying cause shit happened and I was SO upset. (We got last for marching, btw? No thanks to me. HAHAHA. Nah. Well yeah, I was hell devastated cause we worked so hard for something to turn out and.. whoop.) But yeah.



We had a cool ending I swear. We were so on a roll when we thought of it. I wish someone filmed it.
I wish everything turned out well.
But we did use 'Scotty Doesn't Know' for marching.
Yeeeeah we're hell cool :)
But yeah. The ending was
the bullfighters (ie. matadors, guy captains) taking off their shirts (w00t! As if any one of them had hot bodies, doh. And Kewkew, if you are reading this, CHILL none of them had hot bodies HAHAHA) but they were wearing singlets with S E L A D A N G on each of em.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS BRILLIANT okay. You know it would've been an EXPLOSIVE ending.
Yeah, but we got last, but we got like 9.1% out of the 10% okay! :) so it was a close competition.
But the prospect of coming in last doesn't sound so encouraging, espesh since I was the marching captain..
What can I say, I lack creativity :(
or at least, my ideas are quite shit and pretty much shot down.
I doubt anyone ever reads my blog so I'm going to go on and on about myself.

I came up with the Spain theme.
Hahaha.
Hmmm. i-Movie..
why the hell am I reminiscing?
Yeah, it's hard to let go innit?
Just yesterday I was emoing to myself about feeling so out of place here and shits.
Aaaaah..

I'm gonna go on a hold and go take off my contacts and brush me teef :)
BACK
Yeah so I ripped my tape dispenser into bits.
I just want the easy-to-tear tape!! Not my fault! 0=) I felt like such the hulk for being able to break plastic.. semi-effortlessly. Then again, I bought it from Woolies so I'm not expecting like SUPER products.


Of life and death.
My almost-two-week-old carnations. Except that..
I really think it's time to chuck them now. :(


I'm sorry that I have to let you go :'(
But it's okay, I'll keep ONE of you dry and wrinkly,
old and black hahahaha.



All taken with my phone camera.
You believe me?
It's no good to doubt moi :D
pretty good macro function!
I wants to be a pro photographer! :)

During lunch we were talking about cameras. Well, Kew, Amy Sheila and I anyway.
Or was it recess? Oh wells.

Oohlala..

School's fine I suppose. It's how it always has been. The week is over, and the weekend is reeling in, once again.
So are exams, oh wow.
I bumped into my sister in the city :O
Not very surprising, it IS Adelaide.
But it's HEAPS cool. The girl in front of me turned back and was like.. "PIK KAYE?" I'm like....
":O CHE?!" (damn, got caught in the act..)
NAH that's not the situation. I wasn't sneaky sneaky anything I swear :)
 


It's quite an artsy picture.
Shermein Wong's artwork.
She should've done HL Art instead of HL Physics. HAHAHA.

Sherr, I do like that pic cause I look cool.
And you can only see half of me.. HAHAHA
But I reckon Kew should have it as his wallpaper cause :
1. you can see only HALF of me
2. and it is a cool artsy pic.
Kew I will send this to you.
=)
=) ??? :)
"Where is the love?"
I have you(r hand and mine) as my phone wallpaper OKEHHHHH. :(
and I'm I'm I'm..
DO YOU EVEN READ THIS?

Does anyone even read this? :(
I'm so upset with my tennis.
I'm realising I'm not as good as I think I am. Which is not good because I don't even have THAT high expectations of myself.
The most annoying thing is, skill-wise (I mean, forehand and backhand strokes only because I cannot do anything else) I'm better than my opponents.
I lead, and then
I LOSE TO THEM.
To like a 7 - 5 or something.
SUOHOIFSEINEGN :( stresses me out big time.
I hate losing out because I'm kiasu.
I hate losing because I am kiasu and I embrace that fact.
I do want to ace my exams too, but I can't bring myself to.. STUDY GODDAMMIT.

I hope I don't lose tomorrow..
I don't know.. I don't like losing, especially when I know I can win but I don't.
Demoralizing.
I thought I deserved to be in higher teams.. and as of late I'm beginning to see the light.
I feel so inept playing alongside Alyse, and Pip and the other girl.. Alice is it? Okay I don't stroke with the latter two, but, Alyse who plays in clubs..
and I was the one who said she wasn't ALL that good, but I'm like NOTHING.

Okay I'm going on a mental breakdown here... -_-!!
Tennis tennis aaah mahu tidur banyaaak! Tapi perlu BANGUN AWAL untuk permainan tenis.
Manalah teman lelaki saya ini?

BREATHE BREATHE BREATHE


I bought an earring rack!
(I arranged my earrings by colour.. or I tried to.)
I like arranging things by colour.
LIKE MY CLOSET!
(and now, my EARRING RACK! yay :))

It isn't that full.. Sher's and Nat's one look prettier :( (I'm not really satisfied with anything I have, really. I think I'm starting to be like my dad, because that's what he usually does. Compare, compare. "How come people's this so nice ah? How come people's car not as dirty ah!!" so my mom and sis and I always end up saying.. "Why other people's wives so pretty ah? Why other people's daughters so pretty? So smart??? My ones not smart..")
Oh mockery.
And speaking of my parents,
they're off to Penang.
Rasa Sayang Resort :(

oh well, may they celebrate my mom's birthday in much peace, joy, and love from my sis and I from afar. HAHA they better not be reading this, they got hell uptight when I was talking to them about blogging WAAAY back. Sure, it's not safe to put your (whole, or so you'd like to make it seem, so that people actually want to know. But do they?! Doh..) life on the Net, but.. hey, I can count with my fingers the number of people who check out this blog (I think. NO ONE COMMENTS so I get the huge impression that 0 people read my blog at the moment. Sadly I can't count a zero with my fingers.. so screw that bit where I said "I can count with my fingers the number of people who are reading this atm.") But yes. I have no readers now so all I do is type.. for my own satisfaction.

At one point my boyfriend used to say :
"I go to your blog every day!"
I know it is not a good practice to doubt him, but
at the moment
honestly
I have doubts that he actually does so :(
He doesn't even come online anymore!!! :(
nor does he pick up his phone..

Dana tried to phone him cause she wanted to talk about BFF issues (about a BFF who ignored the other BFF and one BFF is sick and the other BFF didn't wish her well.. it is complex stuff that you don't want to get into. If I quote Mr Hayes today, he said.. 'Byzantine manouvre.' Which means, seriously complicated stuff. In short.) and I have good prediction skills (or at least, I know about my boyfriend's behaviour, especially his 'mehmehmeh no!! *grumble cutely*' when I try to snatch an iPod touch away from him while playing some game. Or trying to be like cooler than him. Or educate him. Tsk stubborn people.. or when I try to get him to hold my books/pencilcase. That is such a boyfriendy thing to do but butbutbutbut MEHMEHMEHMEHMEH!!!).

Where was I? Yeah, good prediction skills..
so he didn't pick up his phone
as usual.
What's new eh?

(Back to earrings now, I'm such a weird person. Sigh.. I refuse to accept that fact though.)
I should ship over my earrings from Malaysia! I do have quite a bit of them, long dangly ones which I don't wear cause I don't really like dangly earrings.(and the 3 for RM10 ones because I'm a cheapo HAHA but I feel like buying some more. But like.. AGR Diva ones rust, and so do those 3 for RM 10 haha) But I like the few that I have atm. Especially the hoop ones. But I can't pull off the long dangly ones, or the big ones. I especially like the one made by dunno whose mom. Fariz's I think. It's hell pretty :) I like it!
Siiiigh
three more weeks to home!
But before that.. exams. Which I should actually study for..
just not yet :)

Time to SLEEEP.
Yesh I haven't blogged so much in a while.
As a conclusion,
COMMENT ALREADY DAMMIT :)
love yous?
Toodles :)

November 4th, 2008

The weekend's over, and the week has come.
What did I do all weekend?
(this is what I do to evade homework, hahaha.)

FRIDAY :
Went to the city after school with Dana, Giselle and Sherr.
Got chocolates for Mic McK's parents, cause we were gonna stay over for the weekend.
Dana saw this flyer of this warehouse sale of some clothes and shit. King William St.! Yeaaah so we trooped off.
She even printed out a map!

But you see, that wasn't King William St. Adelaide.
It was King William Street Kent Town.
We walked. walked. walked. walked.
So so so proud of myself. HAHAHA.

Well firstly, the warehouse was quite a disappointment. Oh well. Who cares right?
We walked from the city to Kent Town.
Those who don't know how much we travelled on foot by, go to Google Maps already!

Then, nothing much. Helped Kew's mom with some stuff for the Spring Fair the next day. Sample-sticking and chopping stamps onto Crabtree and Evelyn pamphlets.

And then later in the night,
went trick or treating with Sherr, Annabelle, Caz, Tess, and the Year 10 girl Chloe.
 


I've never been trick or treating in my life, ever.
Hahahaha :P there's always a first to everything!
Got three chocolates out of that.
Never too old for anything :)
yeaaaah I'm pretty aware I'm 17. Hahahaha.
 

SATURDAY :
Helped out Kew's mom all day with Spring Fair, was selling some kind of costume jewelery. Tiring, but pretty cool! Okaaay the Spring Fair isn't like whoaaa super big and cool. But I was so appalled when I found out the proceeds weren't going to charity, but for .. the SCHOOL FUND TO BUILD A NEW GYM (or so I heard.)

I've been gypped!!
(Yes a new word I learnt in ESL =D)
Dohhhhh.

Yes for brownie points (I hope! :)) we got some chocolates in the end too! And the IB people get their 6 service CAS hours..
Hmmm yeah I need to pass Kew the forms. Hehehehe. Sigh. I always forget leh!

And then, the Dana Chinners' 18th party.
If you haven't seen pictures from Facebook or other people's blogs..

 


Mic McK and HuaHua


Alyse "tennis buddy who plays a million times better than me" Walter
(and she reminds me of Hermione Granger a LOT, esp with curly unstraightened hair)
and I feel so guilty for always hitting shittily with her :'(


DJ Neena "Bling" Goh *yeeeah!*


Tenielle =)
(her eyes are so prettily blueeee :D)


Shermen "PICKLES YOU MAKE ME CRY" Wong


Giselle "Rong Rong pepper absinthe lover" Seow

(I still love you :) btw)
(and I typed that cause I know you're reading this..)
(YOU BETTER BE READING THIS >( )

last but not least..
THE WOMAN OF THE NIGHT
(me with the woman of the night anyway..)


Dana "that's not my name!" Jamie Chinn Hua Hua
 

and for the record,
I do remember the night and everything that went on!
Yes there were allegations of me jumping into the pool with my bra AND BOARDSHORTS
and me being a slutty drunk but
WHAT CAN I SAY LAAA
Something you do once in your life.
(maybe more than once ... :) :) ?)

note to self :
do not wear such a short dress for a party involving some kind of drinks.

But it was a fun night :)
all good things must come to an end, huh?
And and and
I'm trying to find out this song in this BTN thing I watched for ESL.
Go to http://www.abc.net.au/news/btn/index.html, click on Episode 30, watch 'Death Penalty', and the song comes up at 2:30.
If you can identify the song for me..
I WILL BE VERY VERY GRATEFUL =D=D=D
Thank you in advance :)
I am gonna go .. do something. Yeah.
Toodles!
