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 ♥

bolt babe?


so yesterday i saw some guy with a bag on the train
and well i though the bag was interesting
but no one else on my carriage seemed to notice it
its was a 'bolt babe' bag
so the bag was black with pink rimming
and a huge 'bolt babe' in pink on the front
and many many hearts (which have been broken, lol) in pink
the guy must have not known though
he looked about 30-ish and was east asian (that's the proper term for it, indian i mean)

i've been feeling really sick lately
i don't know
it's not normal sick though
for the past two days
whenever i eat something
i feel nauseous afterwards
and the smell of really oily foods really gross me out
and the only things i've been feeling like eating are cold
(though i still eat hot stuff)

i shall go now.
really need to study,
second week and i feel like i'm uber behind

with love♥

sorry i haven't been blogging
feeling very uninspired lately
i think i'm feeling bit down
cos i found out i failed one of my subjects
:(
i don't play the guitar that much anymore either
i think i'm going through a not so great patch
i'm breaking out insanely
i don't really have the inspiration to do anything
even though i go to bed late
just zoned out watching youtube
its quite horrible
i go to bed late
and i dont know why
i love sleeping
but yet its hard for me to get to bed
and its not like i really have anything to do
:(

& on top of that
i hate the weather
i always say this
but i really mean it
i hate winter
with a passion

oh but on a happier note
i cleaned my room
but since none of you have probably been in my room
you won't understand how much of an achievement it is
my room is just full of clutter
though i can't help it
i love all the stuff that is in my room
i'll name all the big stuff i have in my room
i have:
-a bed
-a desk, which is pretty large
-TWO bookshelfs - well technically one is a proper book shelf, and the other is those artsy boxy shelves
but they do take up a lot of space
-a full length mirror with a stand - the stand does take a lot of room, it takes as much room as a seat would, but its tall
-my desk chair
& my bean bag is probably the other thing worth mentioning
so yes
my room gets cluttered and messy easily
because:
1. i'm a girl, i do change clothes a lot when deciding what to wear
and i usually don't put them back nicely in the wardrobe because
2. i'm lazy
3. when i clean my room i take like a whole day, cos everything has to be put back to a particular place, thus i don't clean my room often

another reason why cleaning my room is quite an achievement
my mum gave me a reward cos i kept my room clean for about a month
can't remember when that was though
i think it was year 9

ok random spiel over.

hopefully i will blog soon,
loveyouall♥

far.


i got a new cd today:
Regina Spektor - Far
i really love Blue Lips (& Folding Chair)
they were the reason i bought the album.
i do quite like the album
in terms of this album vs old albums
i think it is a little more mainstream & pop (actual pop, not the electro crap.)
and a little less quirky
but she still is quirky though. (i like that word)
& i still like it
&
it also has a bonus dvd
:)


a thing i love about regina spektor is the random lines she has
so here are some of my favs from this album:

"i've got a perfect body, but sometimes i forget
i've got a perfect body, cos my eyelashes catch my sweat
yes they do, they do." Folding Chair

"two birds on a wire,
one tries to fly away
and the other watches him close from that wire
he says he wants to as well
but he is a liar"
Two Birds

"i have no wallet
i keep my cards together with a blue rubber band
and with a free hand
i search in my pockets
for pieces of, pieces of paper and change" Wallet

i love love love getting new cds.
have i mentioned that already?
i probably have.

the reason i love buying cds
is that
i love ripping them open
and seeing the contents
and the booklet
and art
i don't know.
i just really like have the cd.
something physical to hold.

LOVE

stop traffic.


a thing i find a little strange
when people get out of cars in the middles of traffic
wait, let me rephrase
when they get out during traffic but come back in again
let me show you what i mean
so today, i was on the bus
and it was a red light
and a taxi was next to me
then the taxi driver got out
went to his boot to get out bag
and went back to his seat
i think my title is a little misleading here though
cars weren't going or anything
so he wasn't interfering
but i just find it kinda weird
like, 'can you not wait?' 'is it really that important to get the bag out of your boot?'
hmm.

also another thing i saw today whilst on the bus
(my bus ride to work is about an hour, so i spend a lot of the time observing people/things)
well, there was this lady with massive heels
it was those 10 inch gladiator looking, but wasn't designed really well cos it had no backs support for the heel and thus she could hardly walk.
and also might i add she looks like she's 40 something
but my question is: why would you wear such heels?
i mean i'm all for heels
as long as you can walk in them and everything
(and it doesn't count if they hurt only at the end of the night)
but you know what i mean?
surely you can get heels that allow you to walk and look good
and also
what can possibly be good looking about hobbling through the street like you've never walked before
?

last thing i wanted to mention was this blog i read
i find it hilarious
basically its called 'photoshop disasters' (link: here)
and basically as the name suggests
its photos that, lets just say, are a little bit screwed up cos they weren't photoshopped properly
some of them though takes a while to really figure out what is wrong with them
& i sometimes have to go to the comments to see what it is
but i find the pics really funny
:)

ok

auf Wiedersehen!

good endings.


i was going to name this post 'happy endings'
though i don't think its quite accurate
cos not all happy endings are good endings
but (for me) most good endings are happy endings
but yes i really really love good endings to shows/movies
and by a good ending, i mean something not so typical
but a really nice ending at the same time.
i'm going to provide some examples
but stop reading if you don't want to know what happens in:
Role Models, The Edukators (german) & The Office (season 5)

so i'll talk about the edukators first
it was a german movie that we watched in the german club (GO GERMAN CLUB!)
in yr 12
and i ABSOLUTELY loved the ending
the ending is kind of hard to explain though without watching the movie
but um, you should probably google it if you want to know what happens.
the ending was about how they (the two guys and a girl) knew the rich guy wasn't going to change, and will decide to arrest them in the end.
so they moved out of the house that they lived in, and left a note on the wall saying "some people never change."
so at the end, the police were about to arrest them by breaking into the house but found no one inside except for the note.
lost? go google it :)

another good ending, Role Models
i know not many people have seen this movie
but me & jacky saw this movie in the cinema earlier this year and loved it
(bit too much nudity though, but anyway)
the ending was how the nerdy guy (Augie Farks) gets kicked out of his country in this real life (its not really real life, its sort of role play?) medieval game
and Danny feels so bad about this, cos he made Augie get kicked out that he wants to help him get back into the game, cos it means so much to him
so they start their own country with four members and called it "Kiss-My-Anthia"
with is basically inspired by KISS the band
so at the end you get this 'war' or 'fight' in amongst (mainly) grown men wearing medieval costumes
and you get 'Kiss-My-Anthia' who are running around fighting in KISS costumes
so funny.
:)

the last ending i wanted to mention was The Office season 5
i finished watching it today,
cos i kept putting it off for exams.
but it was SO CUTE!
the ending was so unexpected but so cute and happy at the same time
go pb&j!
:)
should i spoil? should i spoil?
so basically, at the last scenes
we're hinted to believe that pam is PREGNANT
and they're both so happy & excited.
ITS SO CUTE :)
i was smiling with all gooey stuff inside after watching that
:) :)
can't wait til next season.
& i really do like the new secretary
she's so cute.
and michael&holly should totally be together :)

CIAO!

hello emo !


one thing i find strange
emos or goths that like hello kitty !
is it me, or does it seem like a slight contradiction here?
i mean emo culture is all about dark, seemingly unhappy.
perhaps, even drowned in self pity.
whereas hello kitty is meant to be cute, and i guess happy.
but i tend to see a lot of emos liking hello kitty.
why?
the reason i brough this up is that this girl that works at sims
i think she's goth, but i've seen her carrying a hello kitty bag and things.
strange.
(btw, i sourced the pics from google images)











another thing i don't understand
what is so cool about setting fire to bins?
(i mean i guess i could say that about anything, like vandalism, but anyway)
but
its a bin
its like, yeah thanks. you destroyed some.... rubbish.
for me it could go both ways.
1. they are too scared to do something that will do a lot of damage, so they go for a bin
2. they are hoping other things light on fire because of the bin
but
for this
some of them aren't so smart
if you set fire to a metal bin.
obviously the fire isn't going to spread.
but then i guess, it may be pyromaniacs.
but then pyromaniacs scare me.
especially after the bushfires and everything
like, its seriously a mental disorder and they need help.
but yeah, how can you justify destroying hectares of land, homes, wildlife, humans lives
just to satisfy oneself
and in terms of damage, more damage is done that even mass murderers do.
anyway, i should end this
i'm getting quite worked up.

this has ben a totally random rant.
i'm sorry.

love you long time.

fail.

of all fails on failblog this is my absolute favourite
it makes me laugh every time
so i thought i'd share it with you

via flickr.



hung up.

i had to blog via flickr today
cos i can't blog properly on blogger for some reason.

sorry i haven't been posting lately
i've been so busy since exams have finished.
seriously, i have not had a full day to myself.
and even if i do have some time to myself.
i play my guitar.
:)
i really do like it.
like i'd be like
"after dinner i'll play my guitar"
i know quite a few songs already.
learning very quickly,
but my theory is that i'm learning very fast
cos i already play violin so i'm used to the strings, fingering and shifting, etc.
though i'm still trying to get used to the fact that it has 6 strings when im tabbing.
:)

i'll be off.
i promise i'll write something more interesting soon.

way too knackered right now.

love.
