hi! i'm als & this is my blog.

i write about random things.
these days i write pretty sporatically.
sometimes i completely rave about something, like a tv show but sometimes i write pretty serious things.
i write in short phrases, i like the freedom of not having to write in proper punctuation and grammar.
i'm a christian. i also ♥ music, art, photography, movies, tv & books.

hope you enjoy ♥

legendary.

he's irreplaceable.

you've gotta think,
no matter how "wacky" he became
the
impact he made on the world was HUGE
i mean for me,
i found out by signing onto facebook this morning
and it was EVERYONE'S wall post
he was just unlike no other
he was a damn legend.
its very very sad indeed.

"Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for Me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough
For the living
Make a Better Place
For you and for me"

REST IN PEACE, MJ.

trend setter.

i bought my guitar yesterday.
is burgundy
:)
the guy who sold me it was really really nice
there was like a slight, hardly noticeable scratch on it
so he gave me all these free stuff in return
like you can't really see it
i have like a very very visible scratch on my violin
from dropping it about 6 years ago
but i don't mind
this scratch was nothing compared to that
:)
can go learn it now
yay.

you know something that sort of annoys me
wou know in fashion mag where the have the "trends" section
i hate it when they are like "new trend (or this season's tends): shorts"
or something that really really isn't a trend
like its summer of course people where shorts
a trend would be a theme like bohemian
or something that is not a staple clothing
say: ankle boots or vest or something
or a special colour like aqua blue
i don't consider black a trend
like everyone wears black
its not a trend anymore
its a staple.

anyhow
be off now

ciao!

fishy tales.


in a slight depressed mode.
about 80% convinced that i failed my exam today.
and being an ex-macrob girl
i don't take failing well.
(damn you, helen irving!)
:(

continuing on the topic of instruments
i also realised last night that i have been playing the violin for 12 years
what on earth?
and i'm still so crap.
but i guess i've stopped trying after yr 7.
though, i wish i did have time and could be bothered practicing
i do really want to be madly awesome at playing it.
but it takes SO much practice to be awesomely good.
and i don't really have that much commitment.

i've also realised i've had goldfish for 10 years
not that it means anything beside the fact that i keep telling my mum to buy a new filter
(its 10 years old, obviously it needs to be replaced)
but she's too lazy
ad lately the fish tank gets really dirty really quickly
and my mum thinks that the fish are like dying
they are preferentially staying upside down
but also some of them are really old.
i don't really pay attention anymore,
i don't remember how many fish are in there anymore
i think there are five or six
but i'm not sure.
there used to be 8 when we first got it 10 years ago
and many of them died off
i think we've gone through about 20 - 30 fish
i think so
not all of them die though
if they were bullies to other fish
my mum would release the fish into a creek/stream or something
but not after the fish could not be rehabilitated
that meaning, she would take the fish out
and put it in a big bowl of water by itself
so it could learn its lesson
haha
nah jk, i think she just takes it out so it would stop attacking the other fish.

anyhow,
be off now.

GOODBYE!

bitte?

haven't done a music post in a while
so here's my review/recommendation for his week
The Dirty Projectors new album, Bitte Orca
i'm quite liking it.
though it did take a few listens to get use to
they're a six person band
the songs are sung by both male and female vocalists
what i like about them is their
is the interweaving of the music with the vocals
what i mean is they make the vocals work through the music.
(did that make sense? or did that just sound like i was tryng to make myself sound like i know what i'm talking about?)
myspace: here
& for more on what i listen to
go to my last.fm
just click the music tab at the top
:)

in other news,
i really really can't wait til i get my guitar
i'm ebaying off guitar music
:)
the ones i really want though (strokes, death cab, yyy)
are really expensive
there's also one that you buy the pdf of beatles songs
its like 200 songs
but
i'm not sure if its dodgy or not
like whether thats legal.
but yes, i do really want the beatles musc, too!
i'm also plannng to learn the cello
but not this holiday
the 3 month break at the end of the year.
go me :)

will write a more interesting blog soon
i'm out today.
(STILL have to study.)

oh, and if you didn't know bitte means sorry or please in german.
(but it has no relevance to this blog, just that the albumis called Bitte Orca)
i miss german :(

slashed jeans.


so i have these pair of jeans, right?
i like them
i love the colour
and they make my legs look skinny

they're slashed on one knee
but
most people ask me
oh, did you slash it yourself?
and embarassingly i have to say
no,
it's cos i stacked myself one day running for the bus
haha
:)

last exam on monday
can't wait
:)

oh, and with my logic exam today
it wan't too bad
i bs-ed my way through most of it
awesome :)

one more thing i don't like about winter,
is that i need to blow dry my hair
and it dries it out.
:(
though i did get a new hair dryer
its much better than my old one
i stole it from my dad
though rightfully so
its friggin lilac and white and shimmery
i was doing him a favour
ahaha :)

anyhow,
so tired from today's exam.
i was so tired i literally couldn't think.
and by the last hour i was nearly going to fall asleep.

au revoir !

the logic test.

so screwed for my exam tmr,
it's apparenly one of those
if you hav logic, you'll pass
but i think thats complete bs
cos i'm pretty sure i hae logic but i know nothing.
but i can't be bothered studying cos i'm just reading a whole bunch of stuff like
"most people are naive about medication"
and
"patients hav stories to tell"
and i also need to learn a whole bunch of abbreviations like:
GCS - Glasgow Coma Sore
PEARL - Pupils Equal and Reactive to Light
sigh.

so over it.
:(


i really really really want to go shopping as well
but i have to wait til i finish exams
sucks.

ok.
be off now.

BYEBYE.

kids who have better things than you.

i swear, kids are so much more high tech now
like the kids i know
ALL have nintendo ds'es
and i don't even have one

but i saw two kids with an i phone
and by kids, i mean kids
one looked he was 5 or 6
and his sister was about 8 or 9
and they had an i phone each
i'm sure it wasn't their parents
cos they were playing with them constantly
and their dad had a blackberry
(i'm sure the mum had something a really good phone too, but i didn't see)

it's kind of annoying though
like, now that we're older (or me anyway)
we have to pay for stuff
whereas kids can just nag and it'll get given to them
(a lot of the time)

i guess i also feels a bit unfair
cos i never got given this stuff when i was little
(i didn't even have a gameboy)
but then maybe cos i was such a good kid when i was little
even though i was an only child,
i was so not spoilt and i was SUCH a good kid
i swear
even parents say i was such a good kid
:)
i never used to ask for anything
but then i was a bit scared of my mum when i was little.
i think though, i started to getting annoying when i got older
but everyone goes through that stage.
toodles!

break out.

sorry i haven't blogged lately
seriously stressed out with exams
and i still have a week of intense studying
my last exam is next monday

but i have a massive breakout on my face now
i swear like 6 pimples turned up all at once
cos i'm so stressed out
but its ok, they're small ones
but i have never broken out this bad before
hmph.

i should go now
i have an exam in 3 hours
:(
so not ready for it.

the very slow guy at subway.

sorry for my unoriginal title
i was going to use a pun, like the slow subway
but i thought that was lame.

anyhow, like my title suggests i came across the slowest guy at subway ever
i'll explain to you step by step exactly what happened.
so the guy just finished serving a customer
and it was only 12 pm so its just me in the shop
so he comes to my end, and i go "can i get a 6 inch wheat bread with meatball?"
as you do
and thne he took like literally 2 minutes to put both plastic gloves on
then slowly moves the the bread fridge
thinks for a moment
"was it wheat?" and i said "yes, wheat bread"
so he takes it out and then he starts cuting the bread
and he goes "what did you want again?"
i said meatball
then he finishes cutting the bread and puts the knife away without cutting the bread in half
and i was like "..er six inch?"
and he was like "oh yeah"
then he PAUSES again, cos i swear he looked like he forgot what i was having again, but he remembered and put meatballs on my sub
then i said "old english cheese"
he said "what cheese"
i said "the orange one"
"er.. old english"
then i said "toasted"
by his point the other people has come in and started lining up
and he took ages just to cut the guys bread
and then my toasting was done
so he takes it out
but you know when you take it out you're meant to put it infront of the salads
well, no. he puts the bread back at the beginning.
then realises and slides the bread all the way down infront of the salads.
and i was like "lettuce tomato cucumber capsican"
he realises the lettuce is empty
and then takes ages finding the lettuce in the store and refills
then he starts to put a lot of lettuce on my bread and pauses
then i was like "tomato...."
and had to say SLOWLY after he finished each salad what i wanted
the he puts the sauce and was about to put salt and pepper
and i said "no salt and pepper"
then he wraps it, again very slowly.
and puts it in a bag WITHOUT a napkin
i give him $5 and he takes it
and he stands infront of the register for a while, he looks like he's forgotten AGAIN
"oh yeah, meatbal"
and then gives me my change
i ask for napkins and he very slowly peels off two napkins from the pile

meanwhile, there was quite a lot of people lining up
and then after me
he was telling some guy that he shouldn't put lettuce in the toaster or it'll burn
and the guy was looking like "wth?"
but he toasted it anyway
but only after the slow guy suggested that they take the lettuce out
but i was thinking, there was tomato and other salads there too
won't they "burn" as well.
very strange.

sorry for my long and detailed post.
i really felt the need to explain to you exactly how slow he was.

anyhow,

bye!

itch

today, i was studying at the RMIT library right
and i was sitting at a desk studying
though this was in the quiet study area
(i'm usually in the silent room)
and suddenly i hear this continous clicking noise
and i turned around
and it was this guy
cutting his fingernails
ew.
no one should cut their fingernails in public
unless its only one, cos you just broke it.
its something you should do at HOME only

i have these small dots under my eyes which are really annoying
i'm trying lots and lots of cream to get rid of them
and they are barely working
they are annoying cos i can't put concealer over them
cos they're bumpy, so you see them even more if you try to conceal them
even though i probably do need concealer cos i have HORRIBLE dark circles
i think though, its the result of rubbing my eyes WAY TOO MUCH
but i can't help it,
they're so itchy all the time
but i think i might have mild allergies or something
like mild hay fever
but i'm not sure
cos i get itchy eyes and nose ALL THE TIME
and so i always rub them
:(

i also hate my puffy eyes as well,
due to my lack of sleep :(

off now,

lotsoflove
