five favourite tv shows // (quiz)

2011-11-02T21:29:00.003+11:00

(because I feel like doing one of those long quiz things that no one really reads)

Pick 5 shows, then answer the following questions. (don’t cheat)

1. Chuck
2. Big Bang Theory
3. Community
4. Nikita
5. Modern Family

1. Who is your favorite character in 2? Sheldon Cooper, I also really like Raj and Bernadette

2. Who is your least favourite character in 1? Currently obviously its Decker

3. What is your favorite episode of 4? When the big switcheroo happens, the season one finale :)

4. What is your favorite season of 5? I love both seasons! I'm loving this current season too!

5. Who is your favorite couple in 3? Troy and Abed. (without. a. doubt.)

6. Who is your least favourite couple in 2? Leonard and Priya

7. What is your favorite episode of 1? I don't know, they're all so good. Maybe season 4 finale or season 1 finale

8. What is your least favorite episode of 5? I cannot think of one.

9. What is your favorite season of 2? Season 3 when Leonard and Penny finally got together

10. How long have you watched 1? only for 5 months but I have caught up to the current season

11. How did you become interested in 3? I started watching it after everyone started raving on about the first paintball episode.

12. Who is your favorite actor in 4? Maggie Q (Nikita), she's so pretty!

13. Which do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5? CHUCK!

14. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3 ? 1 because I've seen all four season plus the current episodes out; whereas there's only two seasons of community plus season three episodes

15. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? NIKITA! because she's so pretty and kick ass and has the hottest body!

16. How would you kill off your favorite character in 1? What? Why..... would I want to kill off Chuck?

17. Would a crossover between 3 and 4 work? No way! Nikita is way to serious and cool for the mixed up people in Community

18. Pair two characters in 1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple. Unlikely couple: Morgan and Casey

19. Overall, which show has the better storyline, 3 or 5? Neither have any real storyline, but Community has really witty writing but Modern Family is still hilarious

20. Which has the better theme music, 2 or 4? Big Bang Theory, I can't really remember the theme for Nikita

The Occupy/99% Movement

2011-10-24T00:48:00.002+11:00

It irks me that people complain about being in the 99%, when they live in a country with considerable riches, where there are measures to try and make sure the poor don't starve (sure, some people fall through the cracks but the measures are there), furthermore we do tax the wealthy more.

Even more so, some of these people would consider themselves less wealthy just because they cannot afford magnificent houses and cars; poor even. It annoys me because they don't seem to realise how wealthy they actually are. That their problems are when they can't afford new gadgets or things, not because they don't have enough clean water to drink or food to eat.

Furthermore, I feel like these 'Occupy' protests are a bit futile, because even though they are protesting about something, they have no solution. I mean, most protests are like "Free (certain country/people/person)" or "Bring the troops home" etc. and their solution IS the protest. Whereas 'Occupy' (whether it is Wall St, or Melbourne, or Sydney etc.) or 'We are the 99%', these are just statements, not solutions. So, you can continue protesting but nothing is going to happen about this because they don't actually know what to do about it.

By the way, I'm not against the protest, I just think the way that it is going about is rather ineffective.

So my solution to make this protest more effective is: first, work out the solutions to this problem AND then go protest.

But the problem is (and another reason why I believe the protests so far haven't been that effective) this issue is such a hard issue to deal with. How do we ensure the 1% don't control all the wealth? Do we have to spread the wealth? How do you deal with people who genuinely worked hard for their riches amongst some who may have lied/stolen/cheated for their riches? How do you properly spread out the riches evenly so that it isn't a 1% vs the 99%? Do we have to change our system to a socialist one? In that case, don't those who have worked harder deserve more than those that don't work as hard? Plus, many many more questions and issues.
As you can see its a very difficult issue, and not something that can be easily changed with a few protests. Hence, why I believe these protest probably won't be that effective in bringing that much change.

This is also why (because I think the protest is a bit futile), I am a bit annoyed about how people complained about police getting violent because you technically are breaking the law and are not moving when being told. Police don't get violent unless they have to and you aren't doing what they say. People get hurt because they have to be forcibly removed and so they retaliate and hurt themselves, thus coming across as violence.

I mean, it is a protest worthy topic; but it's an extremely hard one to solve. Sort of like trying to solve poverty.

X MEN

2011-10-22T20:57:00.005+11:00

So, I tend to have phases, where I obsess about certain things.

Lately, I have been obsessing about X-men.

So I ended up watching every episode from the 90s cartoon, especially because I distinctly remember this one episode from my childhood. The images was so vivid, but it took me forever to find that episode (because it was played in season 5) so I ended up watching all 5 seasons just to find that one episode; plus I do love the cartoon. Reminds me of my childhood, and watching cartoons in the morning.

On top of that, I've been reading into characters wiki pages trying to find their back stories, powers and story lines.

My favourite X men by far are: Beast, Rogue & Jean Grey (and Cyclops when he was with Jean Grey).

I love Jean Grey; plus, I really love this picture of Jean Grey as Phoenix.

I also wish Cyclops and Jean Grey didn't have such a complex relationship and that they could have lived happily ever after (I mean they did, it was for a short while when they were transported into the future to raise up Cable, but didn't last because: 1. Apocalypse's affect on Cyclops' personality, 2. his psychic affair with Emma Frost, 3. she died).

Plus, I wish he isn't currently dating Emma Frost (I dislike her because she used to be bad/evil and I wouldn't trust her and she had a psychic affair with him when Jean was still alive, moreover she seems like she has bad intentions and acts in a calculated way, plus she was in a number of villain groups; sure she's hot, but Jean Grey was better).

I also hope Jean would come back from the dead, since she has the Phoenix Force and because she is one of my favourites.

I also liked Rogue's relationship with Gambit, I felt bad for Rogue when Gambit was turned into one of Apocalypse's Horsemen; that can't be easy for a girl to see her boyfriend be enslaved and turned into Death.

Plus, this is kind of irrelevant, but does Gambit have a never ending supply of cards? Or does he need to continue replenishing his supply? They never really explain that.

& I love Beast, I enjoy that he is not only brawn but he is also brains and seems very peaceful.

Tweet tweet

2011-10-12T12:48:00.001+11:00

I've been using my twitter a lot, for random thoughts :) though I do hate the character limit. I usually have to write the whole tweet and then keep refining to reduce character length, which can be quite annoying at times.

Btw, my twitter is: alszhng :)

Also, last Sunday I saw an old man walking a goat in a park in West Footscray :) I thought that was hilarious!

2011-10-10T20:36:00.004+11:00

The most racist thing I have ever heard my mum say: when referring to the asian girl in the Maccas i-spy commercial, mum was like, "Oh, so that's why they hired her .. 'I spy with my LITTLE eye.'" LOL!

Alice in Wonderland

2011-10-05T20:31:00.001+11:00

So there is such thing as the Alice-in-Wonderland syndrome, which I thought is quite funny.
At first I thought maybe it was a colour/everything is bright thing, but it is a syndrome where you see things as abnormally large or abnormally small, which totally makes sense having seen Alice in Wonderland. Pretty interesting.

2011-09-23T18:23:00.001+10:00

So today I wore my black flats and I was wondering why it felt like I could feel the ground while I walked. So I thought my shoes must have been wearing out and an area of the shoe sole was just really thin.

But then I got home and there was an actual hole in the sole, it was like a 1.5cm diameter hole.

Though I'm a bit perplexed as to how it got there, because that hole is really random.

too much tv

2011-09-23T10:33:00.002+10:00

so i watched a ton of shows yesterday simply because they all came out yesterday

i watched: survivor, america's next top model, modern family, up all night, free agents

i actually preferred free agents to up all night this week, the ending kinda made it too awkward. i don't like watching things that make me feel too awkward (which is one of the reasons why i stopped watching the office).

i also really enjoyed modern family, but it felt a bit weird how they changed lily. and that lily can talk so much now (and clearly), that it doesn't make sense she's 3. i mean 3 year olds can talk but not that clearly. i actually really enjoyed the silence of old lily, it really contrasted her extravagant parents and her. though i do like this new lily, it will just take some adjusting, that's all.

oh, also watched new girl, the day before that

i kinda like it

as in the episode is kinda slow but funny

but the ending of that episode was hilarious!

i really liked the douchebag jar as well

HAHA.

Spring shows

2011-09-15T20:28:00.003+10:00

I feel like this spring isn't going to be that great for me uni work wise, and I say this because all my shows are coming back, and there's a lot of them. I mean, A LOT.

Survivor and America's Next Top Model came back last night, and I can tell this season of ANTM is going to be great because of the season preview. I mean they will be writing their own songs and singing them, and doing the music video for them. On a modeling show? Really? This is going to be HILARIOUS! And check out the final photo of all the models photoshopped together. I mean, someone was seriously having a crack when they thought it was a good idea to photoshop the girls spilling out of the bubble bath/pool AND Alexandria is no longer on a surf board, she now rides a motorcycle. AHAHAHAHA! Oh, this season is going to be so fun(ny)! I am glad that Allison Harvard (ie. creepy chan) is back, if you've read my older posts you may know I had a slight obsession over her.

I also started watching Up All Night today, pretty funny and light, I'll probably continue to watch it. It kind of reminds me of Raising Hope and Cam & Mitchell on Modern Family, sort of. (simply because they are also shows about raising babies)

And I also started Free Agents as well. I liked that too, but I'm not sure if I like it enough to continue watching. Maybe if I'm bored or something.

Also, the other shows I'm waiting for:
- Chuck (!!)

- Nikita (!)

- Community (!)

- How I met your mother
- Big Bang Theory
- Modern Family (sort of, I mean I do like the show but I'm more inclined to watch it when I'm bored rather than follow it every week)

New shows I may start:
- New Girl, simply because I love Zooey Deschanel :)

- (and as I said: Up All Night)

I think that's it, I have way too many shows already.

As I said, this is so not looking good for uni work.

2011-09-15T10:25:00.001+10:00

Finally there's a blogger app for iPhones :) will blog more frequently now.

nails

2011-09-01T22:41:00.010+10:00

so i did my nails today,
check it out.

pretty cool huh?

took me a little while to do, but it was my first time doing nails like this

so it came out pretty decent.

i was following this nail tutorial :)

though hers looks much better in the nail tutorial

but i think if i do it again i'll have to use all the same brand of nail polishes

tumblr

2011-08-27T18:12:00.002+10:00

for a website that is really just meant for sharing photos and videos and quotes

its sure hard to use.

you can't find photos with two separate tags (so you can narrow your search down)

and changing the settings is so hard

because i can never find where to go.

that said,

i do have a tumblr: here

rejection

2011-08-23T15:43:00.004+10:00

so, i thought this was funny.

from here

epiphany

2011-08-22T23:58:00.003+10:00

so i sort of had an epiphany the other day.

i realised that i must have really short arms,

(i guess its assumed because i'm short, but i never really had this realisation.)

so the reason why i had this epiphany

is that the other day

i realised ALL my jackets and cardigans are way to long for me

and they all go up to my hands.

that's why a lot of my clothes look very big and baggy on me.

um, yes that is all.

stay tuned for more pointless realisations in the future.

toodles!

when we were kids

2011-08-20T16:35:00.005+10:00

i love this, its hilarious!
and when you hear them argue you realise how ridiculous our arguments were when we were young.
i particularly like the 'your client is guilty times infinity' then 'your client is guilty times infinity plus 1'
and the 'i know you are but what am i'
and the 'jinx'
and the 'Nuh-AH' and the 'Yuh-HA'
because i remember these comebacks when i was in primary :)
and i also love the 'well, my client is rubber and yours is glue, and what ever you say bounces off him and sticks to you."

love it ♥

update

2011-08-20T16:14:00.007+10:00

sorry i've been away for a while;

i intend to come back.

but probably with little random short posts because i'll link this to my phone,

so i can blog to my phone.

though i do like adding photos, especially .gifs

but it just takes a lot more time and work

and i don't want this to feel like work.

which is probably the reason why i keep stopping my blog posts.

in short, i will probably revert to the way i used to blog.

ie. random rants.

♥

i also think i might change the blog title/layout soon

as in, i really like my layout (since it too me forever to fix the code) but i might just change the colour scheme and back ground and things.

but that's a maybe.

2011-08-20T16:12:00.003+10:00

whenever I listen to The Antlers - Kettering, it never ceases to make me want to cry

(it a good way though, because the song is so moving.)

2011-08-20T16:07:00.003+10:00

if love is just a game, how come its no fun?
if love is just a game, how come i've never won?
I guess maybe it's possible I might be playing it wrong
and that's why every time I roll the dice
I always come undone."

CHUCK

2011-06-25T02:41:00.004+10:00

(SPOILER ALERT)

just finished all four seasons in a week

and the season 4 finale

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

mind blown.

i mean, yes, the episode was titled: "Chuck vs. the Cliffhanger"

and boy, it was a cliffhanger

MAJOR SPOILER ALERT (for those who haven't watched)

you've been warned.

so, Morgan is the new intersect

aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

what?

i mean i know or at least i predict that chuck will eventually get it back

i mean the show is called 'chuck'

and its about chuck because of the intersect

thus he must get it back

right??

i hope so.

i mean, morgan is brave and all

but he can't be the intersect or the only intersect next season

right??

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i really really really hope chuck gets it back.

i mean really really really really.

Kettering - The Antlers

2011-06-09T02:05:00.001+10:00

its a weird feeling when you feel like you are losing a friend that you thought you'd always have

"I think she hits the turtles."

2011-05-29T22:51:00.003+10:00

I love this clip, its so funny.

I love how he put subtitles for Jose Luis, and the subtitles do actually kind of sound like what he's mumbling.

I also wonder how they make Jose Luis talk so much, or maybe he just likes talking a lot.

I like Arturo's type of humour, its very (I'm sure how to describe it) dry and sarcastic? But anyway, I've also watched his other videos and they're also pretty funny. But this one is my favourite.

love it ♥

Also, yes I finally turned Google Adsense on. Though it would probably take me ages to actually get paid for anything, I figured since I've posted over 400 blogs just on this blog, and over a thousand blogs, i think, if you include my old blog as well. So I figured that maybe if I can get anything from it, I should try. Sorry, if that makes me a sell out.

But having said that, I will start putting more work into this blog after exams. Since I have 400+ blogs on here, I shall begin to categorise my blogs because I sure not all of you want to read all my stuff about 'Community' (though it is a hilarious show and I highly recommend it) or all my random music posts or any other thing I might be obsessing about.

But in the meantime, time to study for exams.

BOO!

Hospice - The Antlers

2011-05-28T22:26:00.005+10:00

I have had this album for quite a while now, and I had listened to it before many times. Though today, I actually really listened to it whilst reading the CD sleeve, reading and listening to the lyrics as they are sung. And honestly, no other album has ever cut me so deep in affecting my personal state.

This album is so unbelievably haunting.

This album follows a story of the relationship between a hospice worker and a terminally ill patient, Sylvia. The patient is depressed and is haunted in her sleep, which leads her to be verbally and mentally abusive towards the hospice worker, however still the hospice worker either falls in love with or has an extreme love for the patient. The patient eventually dies, but not without leaving lasting emotional scars on the hospice worker.

As Peter Silberman puts it (interview from thefader.com): "A hospice can be representative of what emotional and psychological abuse can do. Let’s say as a hospice worker, you’re taking a lot of verbal abuse from someone who is dying, cause they’re, absolutely and rightfully so, bitter about what’s happening and feeling like it’s completely unfair, which it most obviously is. And you’re in the position of feeling like you have no right to complain about your situation because it’s so much worse for them. So you think the least I can do is give them a punching bag."

and continuing from another interview here: "...You don't have to right to argue with them either, because they're the one that's dying here; they're the one that's been dealt the wrong hand. So you take it, but you can only take so much. Eventually, you realise that this person is destroying you."

When I truly listened to it for the first time, I could feel myself being haunted by the story telling. I could truly imagine the situation, the setting and felt the mood of the whole piece sink into my own body. And when I say haunted, I do mean I for some reason was feeling scared not sure why, but the piece along with its story also reminded me of scary films set in creepy hospital with mentally ill patients. But I'm pretty sure that's just me.

But the emotion that comes through as this story of the hospice worker and patient is reflective of an emotionally abusive relationship.

"Basically, what I would say the album is about, I would say this for the sake of anyone who would listen to it, it’s about an experience I had in a very emotionally abusive relationship and the pulling myself out of that, and the effect that it had on my life at the time."

However, I have read many reviews that describe the light that seeps especially at the end through this dark piece. But at this point, I am still coming to terms with the depressing story and the sheer emotion of the whole piece.

This isn't my usual type of blog, it isn't as light hearted as it would normally be. But I am writing this under my current state, still feeling extremely overcome. As I said in the beginning, no other album has ever so severely affected my mental state.

And after saying all of that, it is an amazing album. Do go listen to it, if you haven't already. It may not affect you as it had affected me, but I guarantee you that if you truly sit and listen to it you will feel the emotion of it all. It's quite brilliant and chilling at the same time.

2011-05-28T00:18:00.002+10:00

I will have to halt my '30 Day Community Challenge' because I'll need to study for exams.

But I'll finish them once I'm done with them. It's just that it takes a while finding the pictures/videos I want to add for the day.

But I'll still blog, most likely. I like to rant about stuff during exams, cos I'm like that.

Day DOCE // Favourite Troy Moment

2011-05-26T01:52:00.005+10:00

- Troy in his dance class, after stripping off his breakaway clothing

- Troy sneezing

Jeff: "Hey, Troy sneezes like a girl."

Troy: "And how bout I pound you like a boy, that didn't come out right."

Shirley: "Won't you all leave him alone with his cute little baby sneeze?"

Troy: "You're not my mother."

Pierce: "She's not?"

Jeff: "29 seconds."

HAHA.

- Troy meeting Levar Burton

Troy: "I've told Pierce a thousand times, I never wanted to meet Levar in person! I just wanted a picture! You can't disappoint a picture! I hate you Pierce! I hate you so much!"

- Troy: "I had a dream it would end this way" during Paintball/Star Wars episode

- Troy crying (there's a few different scenes in this clip, all of which are funny)

its in the previous clip as well bu this is funny as:

love it :)

Jar of Hearts

2011-05-25T20:49:00.008+10:00

A song I have been singing a lot lately:

Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts

And who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars.

Collecting your jar of hearts;
Tearing love apart.

You're gonna catch a cold;
From the ice inside your soul.

So don't come back for me;
Don't come back at all."

♥♥

also, i do like the original much more than glee's version, it has much more emotion in the song.

Day ONCE // Favourite Annie moment

2011-05-25T20:03:00.004+10:00

I have mentioned a couple already, including Annie's gravy train (see Day #4) and here random dance moments (see Day #1) but here's more:

- I love Annie's disney face (I can't find a clip for it, so here's a picture.)

Jeff: "Now she's gonna make the Disney face. Her lip is going to quiver and her eyes will flutter, but they won't ever actually close, but DO NOT feel sorry for her!"

-When Annie almost kisses Britta

-When Annie gets a free backpack and does the robot (Contemporary American Poultry)

- The Annie/Black Rider moments in 'A Fist Full of Paintballs'

Annie: "Stop trying to fluster me with your handsomeness. You’re creepy."

Random funny .gif of Annie when Pierce was hallucinating:

♥

Day DIEZ // Favourite Abed moment

2011-05-24T02:02:00.001+10:00

I have many favourite Abed moments, though a lot of them is with Troy. Some of my favourite Abed moments is when he is playing characters, and I have already mentioned them before in Day #2 here. So I'm mentioning some other ones.

But this is one of many favourites when he acts as 'himself' to approach a girl. This was the result:

but one of my other favourite moments is when Abed helps a girl give birth (you'll have to look in the background of the scenes for Abed)

Also, I hadn't mentioned it yet
but I love his catch phrase:

"Cool. Cool cool cool."

View the other days of my 30 day challenge: HERE

Day NEUVE // Favourite Britta Moment

2011-05-23T01:42:00.006+10:00

The thing with Britta is that she's does these weird things to try to be cool but end up being awkward and funny. I like her, but I feel at times she tries SO hard to be cool, that sometimes its annoying. Also, when she's funny, most of the time she's awkward funny.

So some Britta favourite moments:

- Britta's weird high five that turns into a snake (it happens a few times)

it's also at the end of this scene:

- Britta doing her dance recital watering the plants but gets stuck and Troy had to rescue her. (I also love Troy and his breakaway clothing. hahaha)

- When Britta shows up to the dance looking all hot to try and scare Jeff into thinking she invited her to go with him, but he had no clue because he drunk dialed her.

more awkward Britta:

Day OCHO // Favourite Jeff Moment

2011-05-22T13:30:00.005+10:00

Here two of them, I can't think of anymore right now (I may add more later, when I think of them)

- When he decides to go fight bullies on Shirley's Christmas day, and he goes up to the bully and goes '..Sup?' and then he does the weird eye thing

- Pool battle between Jeff and the teacher. And the dean when Jeff took of his clothes, that was hilarious!

Day SIETE // Least Favourite Episode

2011-05-21T13:22:00.001+10:00

'The Art of Discourse'

When those kids came to visit Greendale and they kept insulting everyone.

That was an annoying episode, especially the ending.

The subplots in that episode were just ok, the Pierce pantsing Shirley and thus getting kicked out of the group was really awkward. Though I did like the Abed and Troy moments.

However, one of my favourite quotes did come out of this episode -

Annie: "When you found out I was Jewish, you invited me to a 'pool party' that turned out to be a Baptism."
Shirley: "Well excuse me for trying to sneak you into Heaven."

HAHA.

Day SEIS // Least Favourite Character

2011-05-20T23:04:00.007+10:00

Least Favourite Character = Pierce Hawthorne

Played by = Chevy Chase

Whenever I ask someone about whether they like Pierce

or when they say 'I love Pierce, he's so funny.'

I can absolutely tell which season of Community they are watching.

Because in season one, Pierce was pretty clueless and harmless

and quite funny.

But in season two, sometimes he's nice and just clueless like season one

but sometimes he goes absolutely out of the way to be a villain.

Especially the documentary episode where he tries to punish his friends by pretending that he's dying

and he gives it the worst to Jeff who never knew is father

and he pretends that Jeff's father is coming to see him

and then tries to pose as Jeff's father.

What kind of friend does that?

And also the Dungeons and Dragons episode

where Pierce goes out of his way to ruin their game.

Or when he tries to ruin Abed and Troy's handshake.

So yes, Pierce is my current least favourite character

though I do feel like there is so much more to his character

and though I don't like his character at the moment, I know he adds so much drama and everything to the show.

And sometimes he's still pretty hilarious.

So, even though he's my least favourite character Community would not be the same without him.

Also, I must say Chevy Chase's characterisation of Pierce is great.

(Above) Pretty awkward and funny moment from Pierce
When he tries to draw a windmill in Pictionary but draws a swastika instead

Also, random gif below of Pierce frolicking. I found it on tumblr so I'm not sure if this was on an episode (because I don't remember where this would possibly be from) or this is like a behind the scenes moment

Day CINCO // Favourite Quote

2011-05-19T23:03:00.008+10:00

Same as yesterday, its so hard to pinpoint just ONE quote.

But here are some of my favourites:

Jeff: "For your information, I don't have an ego. My Facebook photo is a landscape."
(Contemporary American Poultry)

Troy: "Didn't we decide at the beginning of the year that for the good of the group we wouldn't allow any intimacy between each other or ourselves?"
Jeff: "We never said ourselves."
Troy: "Ok, now I'm really mad!"

(Paradigms of Human Memory)

Jeff: "I'm saying you're a football player, its in your blood"
Troy: "That's racist."
Jeff: "Your soul?"

HIMYM SEASON 6 FINALE

2011-05-18T01:00:00.002+10:00

SPOILERS

WARNING

just watched the season 6 finale of how i met your mother
and all i can say (not really say but you know) is this

:O

or better put

this:

BARNEY IS GETTING MARRIED!

I so thought that it was going to be Robin (that was getting married),
especially with Robin asking Ted to be her best man in the beginning of the season.

But having said that, I always knew that Barney was going to get married, because you can tell that it's what Barney wants for his life (having a wife & kids) but he's always been too afraid. And you can see it throughout the season, with him meeting his father and dating Nora, that he wants something more with his life. Also, in the meatball episode when they have a flash forward with Barney in his 'deathbed' asking Marshall to eat the meatball sub, Barney had a wedding ring on. But my initial shock was due to the fact that Barney still seems rather immature with these sorts of things, so I didn't think it was going to be him to get married (I assume, next in the group).

The question is who is Barney marrying: Robin or Nora? (or someone else?)

My theory is Nora, especially after the latest episode where Ted/Zoey's relationship was reflective of Robin/Barney's relationship saying that it was so easy to run back into the relationship but they both know that its not right and saying that they were a train wreck.

Quote from the last episode:

Robin: "The future is scary, but you can't run back to the past because it's familiar. Yes, it's tempting."
Barney: "But, it's a mistake."

Sorry to quash the hopes of those die hard Barney/Robin fans, but I highly doubt that Barney will be marrying Robin. Also, I really like the idea of Robin and secret crush (played by Michael Trucco).

I hope its Nora, because I really like Nora. I love her accent, and you could tell Barney was really into her and the only reason why Barney decided not to meet her parents was because he was scared of commitment but you could tell he so wanted to go inside, but fear got the better of him. And the season finale gave the hint of their possible wedding, since Barney asked her out again for 'coffee', which according to this episode is code for 'i want to get back together'.

I don't think it will be someone else, but it is a possibility.

Oh and in this latest episode, I cried when Lily was pregnant. I honestly didn't expect it/forgot about it, because they went off baby talk for so many episodes.

Also, I enjoyed the 'PSYCHE' when he said he met the mother, but obviously they're not going to make it that easy for us.

Ok, done.

BYE.

Day CUATRO // Favourite scene

2011-05-18T00:14:00.003+10:00

Such a hard choice to just pinpoint ONE scene. So I have a few, the thing is I mention them as I see them/remember them, because HEAPS of scenes are funny.

- Random Spanish class presentation by Jeff and Pierce

So hilarious! I makes me laugh out loud every time I watch it

Senor Chang: "Why are there costumes? These are supposed to be short conversations, they're not supposed to...."
Jeff: "Take your breath away?"

- The Abed and Troy moments/endings

all of them are awesome, like the classic spanish rap, kickpuncher and 'Troy and Abed in the Morning'

but i also particularly like this one, though Troy looks so sad at the end

Abed: "Wait, you don't have to believe."

Troy: "I didn't............ I didn't."

- Abed as 'The Cape'
it was so much more funnier to me because i've watched the show before.

Abed: 'SIX SEASONS AND A MOVIE!'

and the show did fail ( it was cancelled, though i think the show had SO much potential, i didn't think it was delivered properly.)
here's a promo of the show, so you'll understand the abed as 'the cape' scene and why he knocks off everything on jeff's table

- Pierce 'mind reading'
its funnier that this scene immediately follows Shirley and Annie playing bad cop

- Annie's gravy train

- Jeff and Abed getting drunk

♥

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKY :)

2011-05-17T19:13:00.009+10:00

My favourite song right now, Bowl of Oranges - Bright Eyes.
Dedicated to the birthday boy :)
I love this song, it makes me want to cry when I hear it because it's so sweet & cute.
The clip isn't that great though, its just ok.

The rain it started tapping
on the window near my bed,
there was a loophole in my dreaming,
so I got out of it.
And to my surprise my eyes were wide
and already open,
just my nightstand and my dresser
where those nightmares had just been.
So I dressed myself and left them,
out into the gray streets
but everything seemed different
and completely new to me.
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings,
even my own body,
and each person I encountered,
I couldn't wait to meet.

And I came upon a doctor
who appeared in quite poor health.
I said "There's nothing that I can do for you, you can't do for yourself."
He said "Oh yes you can, just hold my hand. I think that would help."
So I sat with him a while and then I asked him how he felt.
He said, "I think I'm cured.
No, in fact, I'm sure of it.
Thank you Stranger,
for your therapeutic smile."

So that is how I learned the lesson
that everyone's alone,
and your eyes must do some raining
if you're ever gonna grow.
But when crying don't help, you can't compose yourself,
it's best to compose a poem.
A honest verse of longing
or simple song of hope.

That's why I'm singing, baby don't worry,
cause now I got your back.
And every time you feel like crying,
I'm gonna try and make you laugh.
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad,
then we will wait for it to pass
and I will keep you company
through those days so long and black.

And we'll keep working on the problem
we know we'll never solve
Of Love's uneven remainders,
our lives are fractions of a whole.
But if the world could remain within a frame
like a painting on a wall
Then I think we'd see the beauty then,
we'd stand staring in awe

At our still lives posed
like a bowl of oranges,
like a story told
by the fault lines and the soil.

ily jacky :)

Day TRES // Favourite episode

2011-05-17T00:51:00.009+10:00

My favourite episodes definitely have to be collectively the paintball episodes (maybe not so much the last one, though it was a good episode it wasn't as good as the other two paintball episodes)

Though it used to be hands down the first paintball episode

but i think 'A Fist Full of Paintballs' trumps the first one

only just.

Why I love 'A Fist Full of Paintballs' the most:

- I love the Western themed nature of it

- I love how Annie was the main character in that episode, who also happens to be one of my favourite characters.

- Following on from the point above, Annie was pretty awesome in that episode

- I love the naming of everyone as their cards, it was a very nice touch

- I liked how they had a western village/town set up by Pierce, with performers and people playing piano. That was pretty funny

- The Black Rider was pretty hot

- I loved the scene where Annie is in the science lab and cooks her baked beans with a bunsen burner. and then later where Abed eats her beans, that scene/exchange was one of my favourite Community scenes

And lastly, I really want to be in a paintball war like theirs

SURVIVOR REDEMPTION ISLAND FINALE

2011-05-16T19:02:00.005+10:00

SPOILERS.

DO NOT READ ON IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED IT. OR IF YOU CARE.

I WARNED YOU.

Ok, so after watching the Survivor finale, I am quite glad that Rob won out of the three that were left. Because Natalie clearly didn't deserve it since she rode the coattails of Rob and Philip didn't deserve it since he only made it there because he alienated everyone, or alienated himself, and because part of the survivor game is the social game, Philip played a VERY poor social game. And I found it so interesting and so funny that in their opening statements, ALL of them credit Rob to getting to the final three. And interesting and true quote that I read (taken from buddytv here) was this:

"Basically, all three argue that Boston Rob was the mastermind, but Natalie and Phillip think befriending the mastermind is better than actually being the mastermind, which is kind of like saying that Tiger Woods doesn't deserve the Green Jacket for winning the Masters, his caddy does."

Very true, they had no hope of winning since both Natalie and Philip were pretty hopeless in challenges (though Natalie did actually win one of them, she was completely hopeless in the latter challenges). And neither of them made ANY (not any) big strategic moves, and followed faithfully to Rob's orders.

But, I do absolutely admire Rob's game play, it was pretty much a perfect game right to the end. The way he kept tabs on everyone, built trust with everyone to the point his alliance all trusted him that he never really needed to use his immunity idol. I particular admire that 'buddy system' he had, I mean yes, it was pretty much like a cult, but it was SO effective in keeping his soldiers in check. Also, the way he eliminated Matt twice, though completely harsh and heartless, was completely brilliant. Because in that move, he eliminated the one that was in the gray area, that maybe if he stayed Matt could have pulled Andrea along for something big, so he eliminated that possibility all together. And honestly if it were him, Ashley and Natalie in the end, I think he still would have won but it would have been much closer, since Ashley could have argued the fact that she was strong in challenges.

But having said ALL of that, the fact that Rob controlled everything made it a boring season and the producers kept having to rely on the fact that Philip annoyed the crap out of everyone to made episode interesting, which annoyed me after a while.

So in summary, AMAZING game play by Rob but boring season because of its predictability. As in, as soon as Rob won the last immunity challenge I KNEW HE HAD WON, and week by week whoever Rob said was going home was going home. Boring.

Hope next season will be more interesting, also I hope they have a Heroes and Villains season again in the future because I hope Matt and Mike return again as Heroes because I really liked them. In fact, I really wanted Mike to return from Redemption island instead of Andrea, so that was a bit of a bummer that he didn't.

Also, I hope Russell doesn't return though he makes interesting tv, he's a real jerk and I don't like him and he annoys me with his cockiness. Also, he played the EXACT same game that he has played the previous two seasons, it's failed for him twice so how on earth did he think it would work for him this time. And playing the exact same way by AGAIN choosing the two pretty girls to make his alliance with, that was his downfall. So RUSSELL HANZ, if you ever return to Survivor PLEASE change your game tactic because if you keep the same game, don't even bother coming back because its not going to work and its not worth watching you fail over and over again.

Yes, that is all.

BYE.

Community Challenge Day DOS // Favourite Male

2011-05-14T02:49:00.009+10:00

Favourite male character: Abed

(but this was a close toss up, because initally I've always loved Abed but lately Troy has been so hilarious as well, so Troy is a VERY close second.)

Character played by: Danny Pudi

I've gushed so much already on this blog how much I love Abed and how funny I think he is

He's a freaking genius of a character that allows Danny Pudi to display his vast acting abilities.

My favourite Abed characterisations:

- When Abed played Don Draper (Mad Men)

- Abed as Hans Solo (Star Wars)

- Abed as police chief

- Abed as 'The Cape' (though it wasn't really a character he played, he just play dress ups for a while with a cape)

- Abed as Batman

Favourite Abed quotes:

"I'm Jeff Winger. I love working this Blackberry because it really tones my thumbs." - Paradigms of Human Memory

Abed: "It's the first season of Lost on DVD."
Pierce: "That's the meaning of Christmas?"
Abed: "No it's a metaphor. It represents lack of payoff."
- Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas

"If I could just take a moment to share a few words of sarcasm with whoever it is that took this pen. I wanna say thank you for doing this to me. For a while I thought I'd have to suffer through a puppy parade, but I much prefer being entombed alive in a mausoleum of feelings I can neither understand nor reciprocate. So whoever you are, can I get you anything? Ice cream, best friend medal, anything?" - Cooperative Calligraphy

"To be blunt, Jeff and Britta is no Ross and Rachel. Your chemistry and sexual tension are putting us all on edge, which is ironically, and hear this on every level, you're keeping us from being friends." - Modern Warfare

30 day Community Challenge // Day UNO

2011-05-12T13:07:00.001+10:00

Sooo excited for part two of 'A Fist Full of Paintballs' Community Finale

Part one was AWESOME!

I'm a bit obsessed with the show at the moment

(though honestly, this season hasn't been as good except for the zombie episode and the last three episodes ie. monkey one, shirley giving birth and pt 1 of paintballs 2.0. Or maybe I haven't enjoyed it as much because they keep making Pierce extremely obnoxious/villainous and Jeff extremely insecure and Britta extremely try-hard to be cool)

so because of this I am doing a 30 day challenge like everyone else has been doing.

So DAY UNO (Spanish numbers because of a Spanish study group)

Favourite Female Character: Annie Edison

Played by: Alison Brie (having the same name as me, makes me like her more)

Annie is hilarious. She's a bit of a nerd and loves to study, and only beginning to come to terms with the fact that she's getting good looking/hot now. She's a bit of a goody two shoes and a bit of a goof (ie. see her attempting the robot .gif and her break dancing .gif). But she's pretty cool sometimes, see A Fist Full of Paintballs part 1, she was pretty cool. Quoting Abed: "She's pretty awesome today."

(Also, saying this from a girl perspective (but probably from a guys as well), how hot did Annie look in this latest paintball episode?)

Favourite Annie Quotes:

"That was a game. This is paintball." (A Fist Full of Paintballs pt.1)

Jeff: "Don't kid a lawyer."

Annie: "Well if I see one, I won't." oooohh, burn. (Intro to Political Science)

"Is she a friend of Ellen?" when she's talking about Britta's 'lesbian' friend. (Early 21st Century Romanticism)

"They can make us sick by biting us. The banana said so." (Epidemiology ie. zombie episode)

"Mornin' boys. I'm Annie Edison, but people call me Psycho because I had a nervous breakdown in high school. My partner's a Christian housewife." (The Science of Illusion)

"i was afraid, i'd eat your brains."

2011-05-09T20:36:00.004+10:00

my favourite song for the last two-three months is:

the national - conversation 16

i love the song!

though if you watch the video clip

its pretty random

and it takes away from the song more than it gives.

and it doesn't fit with the song at all

(you can go youtube it if you're curious).

i love the whole album

though it takes a while to get into it.

there's a lot of depth there

that is usually initially missed

random as

2011-05-06T23:26:00.003+10:00

so today i may or may not have sung in front of an audience

with a friend singing/accompanying me on guitar.

its one of the most random things ever/

something i would never thought i'd do.

(i don't mean i would never do it, i just never thought someone would want me to do it. haha)

we sang: campfire - angus & julia stone

heads up

2011-04-28T16:01:00.002+10:00

because it will be exam time soon
i will probably begin posting again
because that's the type of person i am.
haha.

so much has happened these past few months that i will need to update on.
obviously i'm not in ho chi minh city anymore,
i'm back in melb
back at uni,
back to study.

meh :(

kthanksbye.

Ho Chi Minh Day 1

2011-02-09T23:27:00.003+11:00

Greetings from Vietnam

So we flew from Melbourne to Kualar Lumpar
which was a long and grueling 8 hour flight
it was so difficult to sleep because it was so cramped even though i had taken some sleeping pills to help me fall asleep
it kind of worked
i slept in spurts of 2-4 hour blocks
then arriving to KL
which was super humid
even though it was only meant to be 25 degrees
we caught a connecting flight from KL to Ho Chi Minh
though not without a bit of stress because our Melb to KL flight was a little delayed
and so it was a bit hectic us trying to quickly check in to the next flight

the flight from KL to Ho Chi Minh was only 2 hours
so it wasn't too bad
though it felt time did go a bit slower
and then we arrived 10.10 am local time
got all our stuff and went to the hotel by taxi
and then the taxi driver tried to jib us
and succeeded because he was so annoying and insistent.
after settling in the hotel,
we went to the ben thanh markets
and tried to haggle for stuff
as well as doing some eating
didn't end up buying much
because i didn't exactly want to buy a fake handbag
nor did i want to try on clothes there and then

then we did a bit of wandering to find dinner
the place we went to was pretty good
it had really well cooked fish
and i also had the typical lemongrass grilled pork
though the lemongrass was so strong.
then we did some more wandering for dessert
and settled for french crepes with nutella
and well as a few drinks.

my first impressions of this place?
its damn humid
and the city is just SO busy
the traffic is CRAZY
there's like cars, taxis, motocycles and buses EVERYWHERE
its a bit too hectic for me to live here
but visiting is pretty interesting and fun
and ordering food by pointing and saying ONE
is pretty funny as well.
i also really like drinking from coconuts :)

anyway, i'm off now.

going to go see my aunty whom i have never met before tomorrow
and i have no idea where she is taking me
it was a bit awkward when i called her
she answered the phone in vietnamese
and i was all like 'err.... i'm your sister's daughter' in cantonese
but then it ended up ok.

also, i can't access facebook
so i guess i'll just have to update here.
i should be able to update during these few days
because there's free internet at the hotel
:)

BYE!

& i'm off

2011-02-08T20:13:00.001+11:00

be back in a while.

serious blog of epic proportions

2011-02-03T14:14:00.012+11:00

let's just say i have A LOT to blog about

and so that's why i haven't blogged lately

because it seemed like a mountain of impending doom, if you will

#1 - i'm moving

exactly like this.

no, i lie

not exactly like this but yes, i am moving.

why?

(side note: owls are cute.)

because well my mum ended up getting a job in campbellfield

so its way too far to drive from west footscray to campbellfield everyday

so we're moving

#2 - packing like crazy

so lately, i've been super busy because i've been packing

not just for moving

but also for asia

and also for CU student leaders camp tmr

so there's some serious deciding on what to pack and what to bring to where

and my room is a complete mess

another reason why i'm packing like crazy

is that

i have to have my room completely packed by tuesday

because that's when i'm going to asia

and we'll be moving

THE DAY

i get back.

stresssssssssss.

and the fact that i don't know where i'll be moving to as well.

where to?

(i like this picture, very clever.)

no clue.

somewhere up north,

and because north is more expensive,

we might have to move into a one bedroom place

i don't mind too much

as long as the place is close to the station.

i don't like that i have to pull don't all the decorations in my room

but

i am looking forward to putting up new decorations in my new room.

i really want a dream catcher for my room

just because i think they're pretty.

#3 - work

so i'm currently jobless

i kind of had to quite because i'm moving and it would end up being too far from my work.

i had my last shift last saturday

and i went in yesterday to visit those i hadn't said bye to.

it was quite sad for me,

but quite relieved too.

sort of.

it's a bit strange being unemployed

when i have been employed for the last two years.

but oh well,

need to look for a new job

somewhere near my new house

yes.

#4 - asia

i'm going to vietnam,

hong kong,

malaysia

& singapore

quite excited :)

#5- my birthday

which is coming up soon

is in slight jeopardy

because there so much happening before it

that have no time

or money

to organise it.

and i did want a 21st.

i don't want anything in a bar or a club though

because that ain't my thing.

i wanted like a garden party,

either that or in a park

but i have no idea a park or a garden.

yes, so that's the situation.

other lighter notes

#6 - we heart it

i really like this website: http://weheartit.com/

that's where all my images from this blog are from.

#7 - tv shows

so break down of shows i'm following at the moment are:

community - definitely my favourite show at the moment. i'll say it once and ill say it again, abed is SOOO funny.

the cape - i really like it, it's interesting. plus, i really liked the latest villain, dice. though her power didn't really make sense, you can't use quantum mechanics to predict the future. but we'll let it slide. i also really like how all the characters are multi-faceted. as in the villains and not just evil, there's much more behind it.

the bachelor - because i find it funny, and i find the reviews of the episodes from buddytv.com even funnier, i'm still deciding whether she's an actress plant for the show or she is really that crazy/scary.

how i met your mother - i particularly liked robin in the last episode at the funeral, hilarious.

i've also been meaning to catch up on modern family

but i haven't gotten around to it.

and i've also just started watching the Us remake of Being Human'

still deciding whether i want to continue watching it,

but its an interesting concept though.

#8- HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY ROWIE! ♥

love you long time.

ok, i think that's all i want to talk about

for now.

love you all ♥♥

2011-02-03T13:53:00.002+11:00

paris would also be super nice.

2011-01-24T01:43:00.001+11:00

i want to go to london.

super cute stop motion

2011-01-21T11:55:00.000+11:00

this video is super cute

its a stop motion vid

for the song her morning elegance by oren lavie

love it ♥

hi

2011-01-21T00:33:00.000+11:00

avril moment

2011-01-20T17:54:00.005+11:00

i'm having a bit of an avril moment

i'm just listening to her first two albums

it reminds me of when i used to listen to her in high school

and whilst listening

i remember that her first two albums were actually pretty good

(yes, i bought them)

then she turn crap

that is 'hey hey you you i don't like your boyfriend' crap

anyway,

i love this song: nobody's home

Well, I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

in other news,
i think she looks really good in her proactiv ad

password annoyance

2011-01-20T10:36:00.003+11:00

this is ridiculous

i'm trying to reset my monash password

because i'm forgotten it

because after 3 years they made me change it

and so i'm trying to change it now

but they keep rejecting it

1. plain rejected, because i entered the secret question wrong

2. rejected because my password was based on a dictionary word (really?)

3. it was too LONG

i think this is why i can't remember my password in the first place

sigh.

The Cape

2011-01-10T21:44:00.004+11:00

Just started watching 'The Cape'

its a new tv series, which is pretty much a comic book superhero series

and its kind of like Batman

fighting crime and corruption

though

as lame as it sounds

or looks

it's pretty interesting

well, i enjoyed the first two episodes anyway.

plus, i really like the clever naming of 'Orwell'

as in how she's all seeing but faceless

which is the same as Big Brother in George Orwell's 1984

well, i'm hoping that's why she's named that anyway.

plus, Summer Glau is really hot

and she really reminds me of Olivia Wilde.

Chess is also really creepy

the actor, James Frain, is really good at being villains

he was super creepy as Franklin in True Blood

so the basic plot of 'The Cape' is that Vince Farraday

who was just a cop

gets framed as 'Chess' who had assasinated the chief of police

whilst in actual fact he was framed by the actual 'Chess', Peter Fleming

who is slowly gaining control of the whole city

through its police force.

and well Vincent Faraday was 'killed' by an explosion

though in actual fact he survived

but everyone believes him dead, including his wife and son.

he gets rescued by a bunch of circus bank robbers

and eventually gets trained by Max to be 'the Cape'

so that he can take out Peter Fleming

who destroyed his life.

Enter 'Orwell' who is the city's eye

the faceless person exposing police corruption

she eventually teams up with 'the Cape' against 'Peter Fleming'.

the show is pretty dark

but I find it quite interesting

can't wait til the next episode

more community

2011-01-10T19:23:00.004+11:00

i've finished catching up on community

and now waiting on the new ep on 20 jan

and i love the show

i keep going on and on about it to others

though they've never watched it before

and i still love abed

who's pretty much a superhuman robot

and abed & troy together

more of my favourite troy and abed endings

"Troy and Abed in the Morning!"

"Bert and Ernie"

also, my favourite episodes thus far are:

1. the modern warfare, paint ball episode

it was a damn awesome episode

add to the fact that i want to play that game of paintball

it'd be so fun

2. the mafia/chicken episode

i love how troy named the monkey 'annie's boobs'

3. the zombie episode

i usually don't like zombie anything

but this was written really well

and was really funny

♥

2011-01-06T00:52:00.002+11:00

"We always used to watch the shows that SHE wanted to watch. I hate Glee, I hate it. I don't understand the appeal at all." Jeff (whilst crying) - Community

(this quote is only funny if you watch Community & know what Jeff is like)

TV: community

2011-01-02T23:23:00.005+11:00

a show i started watching and LOVE just last night

is Community

its so funny :)

its about a bunch of adults at a not-so-highly-rated college

so most of them are returning back to college

(i.e. theres like a 60 y.o. man and a 40 something divorced lady, amongst others)

though two of them actually came from high school

and so the basic plot is that this guy started a Spanish "study group"

so he can date one of the the girls in his class
but one thing led to another and they actually became a Spanish study group.

its funnier than it sounds

my favourite character is Abed

he's so weird and hilarious :)

i especially enjoy the Abed and Troy endings to the episodes

you'd definitely enjoy it, if you liked arrested development

its similar sort of humour

2011; new year, new aims, same girl.

2011-01-01T23:08:00.000+11:00

sorry about blogging properly for the end of last year

i was just SO busy.

so this year, i have new blogging aims

i aim to blog at least twice a week

plus one extra tv rant blog a week (if i have something to rant about)

its a lot more relaxed than doing a blog a day

which though i did have fun with

but it became a little tedious by the end.

though, on reflection

i seriously can't believe its 2011 already

the year went by so quickly

that i wasn't even that excited for christmas

because i felt like it was christmas not that long ago.

but this year i think will be really challenging for me

having to juggle student leadership at rmit CU

as well as at church

but i hope i will be ok

since i only have three subjects each semester

hopefully.

though i really need to learn how to manage my time better

honestly,

i don't do it very well during uni at managing my time.

so maybe one of my resolutions this year is to manage my time better

and not be so lazy.

other than that i don't really have any resolutions

because i'll probably break them.

anyway,

love always ♥♥

survivor nicaragua finale !!

2010-12-20T20:58:00.004+11:00

currently watching survivor finale

(so stop reading if you don't want to be spoiled)

but its loading rather slow

so i'm a quarter way through

& i really really really want fabio/judd to win

but i've just finished watching when they commemorate each of the players gone

and they usually say nice things about each one of them

the funniest though was tyrone's

because all holly said was 'tyrone the fireman'

HAHAHA

could they seriously not say

oh yeah, he was a nice guy or something.

also, after i heard naonka's spiel/explanation

i was like 'are you serious?'

she's seriously deluded

like she was saying how she played a smart game and that she was nice.

no. and no.

1. she stole food (stupid move)

2. she's in-your-face and rude, yelling at people for no reason

3. she's a backstabber

4. she's a quitter

5. she knew she was going to quit and that she was going to have food that night, yet she still didn't give up her place for reward so that others can eat.

so no, definitely not a smart game. not even close.

and she's just painted herself as being one of the most rude and selfish people that has ever played survivor.

-----------

just finished watching final challenge

FABIO JUST WON FINAL IMMUNITY

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

i'm calling it out right here

fabio will win.

i'm about 80% sure.

it's my prediction anyway.

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

hahaha, so fabio's just playing on everyone's minds now

making everyone paranoid

LOL.

i totally knew it

he totally played up that he was so stupid and blonde in the beginning

but slowly we are seeing that he is quite smart

i remember that episode when they were talking about freud

and he actually knew about the iceberg/subconscious theory

and it was then i knew that he was playing dumb

so that everyone would discount him as a threat

and last episode

when he saw his mum and he was all emotional

that was so cute

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

so holly was just voted off

i liked holly better than sash or chase though

sash is freaking slimy

and a horrible liar.

& chase is indecisive and annoying

and a backstabber.

want fabio to win.

badly.

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

just finished watching final tribal council

and i found it so funny

especially dan and jane.

so it's looking like a split between fabio and chase.

i still think its fabio though.

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

FABIO CUT HIS HAIR

i liked his long shaggy hair

haha

though he does look cute with short hair

it brings out his blue eyes

he reminds me of chace crawford with his short hair

♥

-----------

the votes are read

as i predicted it was a

split between fabio and chase

and for a second

i actually though chase won

because it was chase 4 fabio 2

and then it was so nail biting

it was tie chase 4 fabio 4

one vote left

thats sooo close

and the winner is:

FABIO!

yes yes yes yes yes!

i'm not good at 'goodbyes'

2010-12-18T00:41:00.002+11:00

tonight i had to say goodbye to a few people

who i probably won't see anymore

two of them because they are moving back to their home country

singapore & malaysia

which is sad,

and i've realised

i really suck at saying goodbyes

as in,

i have no idea what to say

and i just go quiet and awkward.

warrigul mission

2010-12-01T01:20:00.001+11:00

was pretty epic.

2010-11-24T14:21:00.001+11:00

and i'm off

be back next monday :)

hp7

2010-11-21T23:06:00.004+11:00

just watch HARRY POTTER tonight

loved it ♥

though a bit puzzled at the number of friends i know that have neither read the books and are not up to date with the movies

that they would watch this latest one

because they were quite lost at some points

i must admit, i have been catching myself up with the movies

which i enjoy

though its a bit annoying that they can't add all of it into the movies

and some things, they changes a little bit

but i like watching anyway

(btw, if you have not seen the movie and/or read the books , you probably shouldn't read on. you have been warned.)

so, in the movie, it was a bit strange because i always pictured bill weasley with short hair

and being very neat and sleek and all

not some long haired, hippy-eque hair

and all the more because he was marrying fleur

also, i miss tonk's pink hair.

also, though i have read the books

i did forget who died and when.

and so it was sad when hedwig died

and mad-eye moody

and DOBBY

my favourite quote of dobby's in the movie:

"Dobby never meant to kill, simply maim, or severely injure"

dooby was so cute

so sad when he died :(

can't wait til the next movie

YES!

but its in july

BOO!

though it was a bit annoying that last movie they didnt have the scene where dumbledore talks about the horcruxes

because it did seem like the movie they were pretty aimless

at least in the book, they knew or had a inkling about what the horcruxes were

even though, they didn't know where they are

plus, harry and ginny were supposed the break up at the end of the last movie

which didn't happen.

i kind of want to read all the books again

but i also can't be bother because i know it'll take me agesss

maybe before the last movie then.

2010-11-18T06:55:00.001+11:00

i feel so sick right now, i want to cry :(
i've only had like 3 hours sleep
but i keep waking up in the middle of the night to cough out junk in my lungs
and i have to wait about an hour before doctors open
:(

2010-11-12T23:46:00.000+11:00

sorry for not being regularly back

(if that makes sense)

back regularly

(sounds better, i think)

i'm just been so busy

yet not busy at the same time.

i think i just like not doing anything in particular that have to do with deadlines

or HAVING to do something.

just chilaxing, ya'know.

at the same time i do actually have a lot to do

which i have not done

because i have not done anything this week

even though i did have a lot of spare time.

long story short, sorry for not posting again regularly.

i've been busy/lazy.

i really should go to bed now, work tomorrow

then CU ball afterwards

survivor rant

2010-11-11T23:18:00.000+11:00

(for those who actually care when i rant about survivor, which pretty much all of you don't, but i like ranting to nobody anyway)

YES!

marty from survivor is FINALLY eliminated

took them way too long to eliminate him

honestly.

sash and brenda should have voted him out a looong time ago

the time they voted out kelly b.

but they dragged it out about another 4 weeks til they finally voted him out

and its not like they didn't have get the chance to.

though i do see the 'minority alliance' being the final 3 in the end

because they have 2 immunity idols

except i think that they might end up blindsiding brenda near the end

because she's a strong player

both strategically and physically

so i'm thinking it will probably be sash and naonka in the end

not sure about the third person

i do hope its brenda,

because i like her and i want her to win (though she did get a bit cocky this ep, but i put it down to editing)

but i have a hunch that it won't be.

naonka is annoying but fun to watch at the same time

as in she just acts like a bitch and i know say if i were on the island

she'd drive me nuts and i'd be so pissed off with her actions

but she makes good tv

and so i'm pretty sure she'll be in the final 3 because she's pissed a lot of people off

and so the other 2 are taking her because she won't win any jury votes

the problem i have with her

is that she justifies her actions by just saying 'that's just the way i am'

which is stupid

because that does not justify stealing food and being outright rude to people.

the other person i like, apart from brenda

is fabio (jud)

he's just so funny

though i think he acts a lot dumber than he is

i mean he knew about freud and the 10% conscious 90% subconcious stuff, he can't be that dumb

but at the same time

he's not super smart

as in he still puts his head in the fire and pees in the pool.

he's just soo funny to watch.

apart from them, the others are ok

i like kelly purple and chase.

holly's really weird, and i like jane but i don't want her to win.

and the others are just ok.

ok, finish rant for now.

til next episode.

the social network

2010-11-08T20:00:00.003+11:00

so me and jacky went to watch 'the social network' today at the nova

side note: the nova's so damn cheap on mondays, we went before 4 and the tickets were only $6. originally i was expecting it to be $9. guess we'll be going to nova from now on :)

though, when we went into the theatre

there was surprisingly a lot of old people

and by old people i define it about 40 years and over

i think it was about 65% old people

seriously.

ok, so 'the social network' was pretty good.

not as good as i expected, though i wasn't sure what to expect

but i'd heard a lot of reviews about how good it was and that increased my expectations of the movie

also, the very first scene when mark was talking to erica

i was a bit lost with all the colloquial talk

and both me and jacky were a bit confused

but we kind of got the jist

i also just discovered that the winklevoss twins were played by just one guy.

that's impressive editing

if i hadn't looked it up, i would have thought that the actually had twins to play the winklevoss twins

but then i knew i'd seen that guy before so i had to look it up

and yes i had seen him before, he was in gossip girl.

the movie was pretty good,

it was edited well, i liked the very last scene

but i felt like the whole movie ended a little abruptly as well.

after that me and jacky went to buy books at koorong for church

and i found it really fun looking for the books in the store

though jacky wanted to at first just get the people to help us

but i was like, nooooooo.

let's just say i really like doing scavenger hunts

so i wanted to do it myself.

we ended up buying 25 books, and only when i got home did i realise that we dobuled up n a book

not quite sure how it happened

and i can't return it

because i stamped it already.

oops.

i need to go to bed now,

need to wake up early to get to balwyn to a friends house

i decided that im going to take a 40 tram ride to his house

instead of taking a faster way but involves me having to get a zone 2 ticket.

yes, i am super broke right now.

sigh.

♥

garden state

2010-11-06T20:00:00.005+11:00

i watched garden state tonight

i had borrowed the dvd from the library a while ago
i quite enjoyed it
though at first it was a little draining and slow
though i do understand why it was that way

it was to reflect the numbness he felt

but still.

but natalie portman's character, sam, is so cute

though i thought that they dressed her a little too young

as in i felt like she was meant to be under 18 years old while in actual fact she was at least 21

but i understand why they did that too

my favourite scene was by far the scene where they are in garbage bags in the rain and yell

(see photo)

it was even more hilarious after they yell

when andrew and sam finally kiss/make out, and its so awkward because mark is standing next to them trying to look away

that make me laugh out loud.

its also funny because the guy who plays sheldon (from big bang theory) is in it

and he also plays a nerd character as well

though its brief

yep, i really quite liked the movie

i really like the idea of him being awakened to his emotions

and him no longer feeling numb.

thought the ending was a little predicatble

him coming back and getting off the plane

but, enjoyable movie nonetheless

♥

freeeee

2010-11-05T23:27:00.000+11:00

so i finished exams today.

it so good to be free again.

FREEDOM!!!!!!!!

i actually didn't go out like after my exam like i had planned

because i was super knackered and wanted to go home.

though when i got home i didn't end up sleeping anyway

and i decided to catch up on the episodes of survivor and antm i had missed.

i enjoy being free

i was like "i'm going to bake a cake."

and i did.

just one more

2010-11-03T00:00:00.000+11:00

can't wait til friday ,
summer here i come :)

watermelon.

2010-10-24T21:52:00.001+11:00

that is all.

summer, come already

2010-10-22T11:27:00.002+11:00

i wish exams will be done with already
i'm so excited for the summer
mission & NTE will be awesome :)
plus roadtrip with meine lieblings
and then ASIA!
the only thing that would make it even more fantastically exciting
would be if i'm going to a summer music festival
which i'm not
because lineups are ok, but nothing i'm really excited about
plus i was mostly hedging my bets on laneway fest
i really do like the antlers and all
and some of the others
but not enough
plus noone wanted to come with me anyway.
i think i'd go if ladyhawke would be playing melb laneway
but apparently she's only playing NZ laneway.
sigh.
BUT aside from that i'm hoping the bands do side shows
so i can go to them instead.
can't wait :)

asian family gathering awkwardness take 2

2010-10-20T21:34:00.003+11:00

yes sorry.

i figure i'm just going to restart doing the everyday posts once i completely finish exams

which is on the 5th

and i'll aim to reach 300 posts in the year instead

though the thing is i do have quite a few blogs posts that have been started

but i never bothered to finished them

so i'll finish those and post those up too

but anyway so today i had to attend another family gathering

though this time it was awkward because i didn't know who the people were

that just visited from hong kong

apparently the guy and his wife is meant to be my cousin

but he's like 16 years older than me.

so yes.

its also awkward because asian adults make a fuss about everything

and i had to sit next to my mum.

i had my own dish but the rest of them shared

by rest of them, i mean adults

(my 8 y.o. and 10 y.o. cousins didn't share either)

and my mum kept offering some of my food for them (as in the visitors from hk) to try

because they don't really eat vietnamese food

not that i minded

but its just weird that she was offering my food for them to try

plus it was pork chop and i didn't have a knife

so it would have meant me trying to try and cut pieces of meat using a spoon.

another thing i HATE about having asian parents

having to say hi to people

not that i'm a snob or anything

but like my mum expects me to say

"hi aunty" or "hi uncle" to like everyone

or today "hi cousin"

and when i don't

(and i usually don't) she usually says i have no manners

and i witnessed the same thing today with my kid cousins

my aunty was like to them "did you say hi to your second aunty?"

its quite annoying

its not like i HAVE to say something verbally to acknowledge them

i usually smile at them anyway.

but no,

my mother is quite insistent.

sigh.

yes, i'm not quite sure why my mum made me go today

i didnt exactly talk much

plus i was being antisocial

and was doing the sudoku in the mx.

haha

♥

lightning

2010-10-06T21:27:00.003+11:00

it was weird weather today

even though i was indoors the whole day

and it didn't really affect me anyway

(side note: i really like when it rains and i'm indoors and i can hear the rain falling outside, its a very comforting sound)

but there was thunder and lightning

and even though my blinds are closed

i could see the lightning seeping in through them

whenever it struck.

also, slightly off topic

why is it that when you get struck by lightning once, you are more likely to get struck again?

compared to someone who has never been struck

i find it really odd.

2010-10-05T01:27:00.001+11:00

anyone else find the 'places' app on facebook, and any other app like it, super stalkerish?

(yeah yeah, i'm massively behind. hopefully if i'm not struggling with time, i'll update. sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrry.)

2010-10-01T23:33:00.002+10:00

sorry for the lack of posts

its been quite stressful and busy weeks

and probably will be for the next month.

i'll hopefully be back on track by next week,

but yes. sorry.

assignments & more assignments #265

2010-09-29T21:16:00.002+10:00

why do i always leave assignments to the day or the day before its due?

when i've technically had nearly a month holiday.

sigh.

i have an assignment due at 5pm tmr

and the stupid thing is that its supposed to be monash's holiday week this week

and lecturers want us to go into uni and hand in the assignment in hardcopy

why?

it would be soooo much more convenient for the approx 200 students to submit it online

but no

the lecturer have to favour themselves and force everyone to come in.

i also have an assignment due friday at 5pm,

but at least thats online.

sigh.

#260

2010-09-24T16:02:00.004+10:00

far out
i think i'm sick again.
i woke up with a sore throat and congested
and i just feel so tired and run down today
dammit.

in other news, i did my bible study

finalllllly.

the turn out was small

so i had to give the answers more often then i'd like

but overall, it was ok.

i really like the way it was written

which was mainly written by heather

i just put it on paper.

yes.

#258

2010-09-22T13:47:00.003+10:00

so, my hair is dying

i've had a couple of failed attempts

and probably dyed it too my in that past few days.

in my frustration.

sigh.

i dislike having thick black hair

the colour doesn't change unless you have strong dye or bleach.

MATRIX (ish) #257

2010-09-21T22:28:00.004+10:00

me & jacky went to ACMI at fed square today
this is one of the things we did
hahaha
its like a ninja/kung fu kick
but matrix style
it's funny cos you can sort of see jacky in the doorway
it looks like i'm trying to kick him
:)

jacky was being a party pooper and didn't want to do one.

i think i might go and dye my hair now
because i feel like it
and also i think my fringe looks too dark and heavy being black
hopefully, it will turn out ok
:)

summer plansss #256

2010-09-20T22:56:00.003+10:00

been listening to hot chip one life stand the whole day

love the album :)

i'm so glad i bought it last week

my favs are 'i feel better', 'thieves in the night' and 'one life stand'

also, i applied for a debit card finallyyyy

so i don't have to hassle my mum every time i want to buy concert tickets.

its more or less in anticipation for the summer and the summer music festivals

which i intend to go to :)

i'm so excited for the holidays.

also, i haven't really mentioned it here yet

but i finish my exams super early

on the 5th of nov

which is why i can sort of be excited already for the holidays

i can't wait.

also, i've resolved that i probably can't be bothered/won't look for another job for the summer

(unless they'll hire me with my low availability)

and sell all my clothes online instead

because i have A LOT of stuff to get rid of.

i also need to sell my mum's fish tank with a stand and canopy

because all the fish keep dying

and she can't be bothered to buy new fish and feed them every day anymore

yes.

damnit, summer come already.

♥

help! i'm alive #255

2010-09-19T20:08:00.007+10:00

"i tremble
they're gonna eat me alive.
if i stumble,
they're gonna eat me alive.
can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
beating like a hammer?
help! i'm alive.
my heart keeps beating like a hammer."

i've been listening to this song on repeat
metric - help, i'm alive
i finally bought the album today
at highpoint
whilst i was there with emma
who was looking for a job.
though she seemed to be hardly looking since she only dropped two resumes

but anyway.
need to studyyyyyyyy

#254

2010-09-18T22:00:00.002+10:00

so, i think this is a sign i'm getting old.

i carry a small pillow with me every saturday

so that i can have a more comfortable sleep on the bus

and especially when its like 8am in the morning

i don't care who sees me.

and i've been doing this for 4 weeks now.

haha.

maybe i am getting old.

#253

2010-09-17T22:04:00.000+10:00

so today i was meant to be in the city by 1.30

because i was meant to lead a bible study

so i just missed my 12.48 train by about 30 seconds

and so i was forced to take the 1.08 train

which was delayed

because apparently there was some guy walking the tracks

and there was police there

so my train was delayed about 10 minutes

which result me getting to the bible study at 1.40

and super flustered and out of breath.

so, no i didn't end up leading the bible study

i have to do it next week.

sigh.

#252

2010-09-16T23:01:00.005+10:00

so i was watching this last night

not such a great idea since i was about to go to sleep

its a video from blackboxtv

a youtube channel with videos which explore darker themes than usual videos

i loved this video its really good

like super freaky at first but i really liked it.

also, i'll talk about it more

after you watch the video.

but watch it.

the whole thing.

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

i really liked the concept that the mum was the zombie trying to stop him from getting to the exit

which was actually death.

so it was actually his mum stopping him from dying.

but the zombies freaked me out though

especially watching it the first time when i didn't know what was going on.

in other news

hung out with emma for most of the day

twas fun.

♥

tv update #251

2010-09-15T03:56:00.006+10:00

so i aim to watch new shows and plus my other shows are coming back

so top of my list is modern family

then maybe mad men, i shall give it another go. i saw the first ep of the first season, it was ok but wasn't something i wanted to continue to watch.

i need to catch up on big bang theory, and then watch new eps coming soon.

how i met your mother should be out next tuesday. yes!

also my trashy reality tv is also back.

that is, survivor and america's next top model.

also, i want to watch this season's amazing race because kevjumba and his dad is in it, and they're so funny.

i saw the first ep of season 15 of america;s next top model the other day

it was ok.

though it was stupid, they kept talking about how different everything is now.

it isn't really.

they just changed the prizes from the cover of Seventeen magazine to now the cover of Italian Vogue.

and they also changed the modelling agency (but it seems like they have been changing the agency a lot lately anyway).

but its not that different.

actually, its pretty the same.

though, this season i like all the quirky/weird girls.

the other chicks kind of bore me.

i like ann, though i swear i have seen her some place else before

because she seems so familiar.

or just that she reminds me of a lot of people.

i also like rhianna.

and esther.

but i was like 'my goodness'

when i found other that esther had like a size 30G bra cup size.

but she's so skinny.

and they're not fake.

(i think, because she doesn't seem like the type to have fake boobs. and she covers them completely most of the time)

also, i watched the season finale of true blood.

yes, i watched it, hong.

it was good for a while, but i don't think i'll end up watching next season.

i feel like now, they're stuck in a weird loop

the problems just keep piling up and nothing gets properly resolved.

it's actually getting quite annoying and predictable now.

especially with bill and sookie

its like they're mad in love, then bill does something kind of shifty, then sookie wants nothing to do with him, then they get back together and the cycle begins again.

also random comment.

though, it was probably not a wise thing to do, when bill accidentally drained too much of sookie's blood, sookie put it down as a trust issue. as in after, she was like i can't trust you anymore.

but its stupid, because it wasn't a trust issue. it was a survival issue, he was dying before she fed him, so i thought that didn't correlate properly.

also, sookie screams way too much.

and she screams so loud.

also, tara's mum creeps me out everytime i see her.

she always looks like she's possessed. or something.

last thing on true blood, though everything else is getting pretty annoying.

i really like jessica and hoyt. she's so pretty, and they make a cute couple.

mediocre bad guys #250

2010-09-14T23:13:00.004+10:00

"home is wherever we are if there's love here too."

listening to jack johnson

i love it how listening to him can make me instantly smile.

i was a bit sad though

because i can't go see him

at the end of the year because its on the last day of nte

but oh well.

i have heard him sound check before

i didn't see him

but i was at the botanical gardens once

and he was sound checking at sidney myer music bowl

awesome background music.

this also made me lol

how they made the new nano and shuffle
from here

#249

2010-09-14T00:00:00.005+10:00

i did quite a few things today

1. went to j&j's bible study. (j&j=jacky and john's) haha.

2. after that, i finally decided i probably should go to the doctor. i think because i'm pretty certain i need antibiotics, i finally went. also, i don't know if it was intentional, because if it was that's so dodgy. the pharmacy i went to didn't give me my repeats. i don't know if that was accidental, because if it wasn't that means i have to go back to that particular pharmacy to get my repeat if i need it. that's so dodgy.

3. ice cream. so whilst me and jacky were wandering the city, we decided we wanted icecream. & jacky had these vouchers for this new place on bourke st, passionflower. and so we were being naughty and decided to use the 2 for 1 voucher instead of the 50% off voucher. and got like a plate of strawberry chocolate pancakes and one of waffles with chocolate icecream. and the servings were HUGE. i felt like a pig. haha.

4. cd sale. so borders i think were trying to clear all their cds for some reason. it was all cds for $10 or 4 for $30. i was a bit annoyed i didn't have more money, because it meant i had to carefully select 4 only, because i could pretty much only use $30. sigh. i so could have spent more than that if i had more money. i bought mostly cds that i should already have and are completely my collection.

i bought:

-bat for lashes - fur & gold

-ladyhawke - ladyhawke

- jack johnson - brushfire fairy tales

- jack johnson - sleep through static

5. after that. at night i had leaders meeting for church and we spent quite a long time to figure out new names for the new service/group. ideas?

i love nicepeter.
he's awesome.
i like him more than mystery guitar man
simply because i appreciate his musicality more than MGMs editing

(though it is good, but it gets kind of old)

but yes, this is one of my fav songs of his.

its soo cute :)

enjoy.

so a few of you know I watch the SHAYTARDS vlogs every day pretty much

well, today shay announced something i thought was massively cool.

so some context, shay quite often throws his children in the air

and takes pictures of it

and there's this one pic taken a long time ago that caught the interest of James Blunt

and so, babytard is now on the cover of James Blunt's new album

how cool is that?

felt really sick today

as in last night when i fell alseep i was freezing even though i had so many blankets on

and this morning i woke up sweating real bad

and during the day i'd bee sweating at random times

and felt really cold at random times

it was really bad.

i would have stayed home but i had lots of stuff to do today

- i went to see my supervisor, and he said my report was 'on its way', so i was pretty relieved. plus with a month still and have a while to refine it and make it much better

- i went to find emma afterwards, and we were going to get free food from melb uni but we decided to stay in rmit and i ended up testing her on her chinese for her test. our conversations were kind of funny, especially if you don't understand how chinese characters work because i'd be saying stuff like 'it's like a horse in a box.' or 'it has a heart at the bottom' or 'it has a car.' or 'it has a rice, a day and a cat?' and that word happened to mean ruined. so rice+day+cat=ruined. LOL

- then after that i met with Hon, to help me with the bible study i'm going to lead next week.

and after that i felt really tired and sick and went home

ate dinner and went to be at 7.40 and woke up again at 11.20 pm

and yes.

"there's a drumming noise inside my head
it starts when you're around.
i swear that you should hear it,
it makes such an almighty sound."

i love this pic of florence
i love the red hair contrasting with the blue cape/dress
she's mega awesome.

didn't really do much today
i woke up feeling quite sick
with the worst sore throat.
and feeling really run down
so i went back to bed,
ended up waking up at 2pm.
haha, whoops.
then i was studying a bit til 6
and i ended up napping again til 7.
double whoops.

so i have pretty much slept for the whole day.

also, managed to finish a full length draft of my report yesterday night

its not very good

but much better than the first draft

and i still have a month to improve it

yes, its totally a big weight lifted off my shoulders

p.s. finally updated my songs, pic & quote.

#243 bluetooth

2010-09-07T23:24:00.002+10:00

a funny incident happened involving me, daniela, leila, our mobiles & bluetooth

so leila was trying to send something to daniela via bluetooth

and for some reason it was working

(we figured later that it was the daniela's phone)

so they needed a middle man

so then we tried to send it from leila to me to daniela

which took a while but i managed to connect to leila

and it connected, very well.

my phone for some reason could find the list of every single file on her phone

which is pretty funny

and extremely stalker-ish.

we didn't manage to get the file to daniela in the end

because her bluetooth didn't work probably.

also, we found the picture left pretty funny.

dark fruit = leila

it's like the iphone was saying 'meh, its just leila. let's forget her.'

narcissistic much?
so some guy i sort of know invited me to become a fan of their own fan page on facebook.
um, no.

but anyway,
today there was 50% off clothing at savers
so me and my mum got there at like 8am to go shop
it was really weird because i never ever get up that early except to go to work
but a funny thing happened
when my mum woke me up
i woke up so confused, because i forgot why i was waking it up so early
i was thinking 'what? i don't have work today. its not saturday is it?'
it took me about 30 seconds to remember
'oooohhh.'
but yes, bought lots of stuff.
mainly dresses and tops.
and cardigans and blazers.
didn't get any jeans or pants or anything because i couldn't be bothered waiting for the change room
the line was way too long.
(i was trying on the rest of the stuff in front of mirror)
also, a kind of strange thing
i bought a lot of pink.
i don't usually buy pink, but i may have bit of a change of heart.
it was two salmon pink dresses
(i quite like salmon pink these days).
another soft pink dress
and a white/baby pink striped top.
amongst other clothes.

i have way too many clothes now though,
i don't even hang all my clothes on the rack in fear that the thing would snap
its already quite bent now.
sigh.
but i just love shopping too much :)

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

so today in the morning church service the sunday school kids sang for father's day

they were cute

except the older boys were a bit annoyed we made them wear streamers on their wrists

haha.

also, grace managed to make a clubbing/r&b song reference while we were practising

was pretty funny because no one else understood it

though we were in a fit of laughter.

afterwards, there was food

because its father's day.

its always the best food because all the adults bring a dish.

love it ♥

after that still, bri decided he wanted to go to essendon dfo

so me, emma & grace came along for the ride

haha, no.

we came along to shop.

so, i bought two pairs of boots

(which my mum will be funding for because she really wants me

to throw out my old ones)

as well as trying on many different sunnies/glasses with emma.

lol at the one with me in the red sunnies and theres the guy in the back :)

also the last one, i think i look like nelly yuki from gossip girl

what do you think?

same old.

though my boss was kind of fearing that we'd get flooded again

because there was heavy rain and flooding forecast for the weekend

but it was all good in the end.

also, went to jimmy's 21st

twas quite fun

i loved sonja, jean & karthika's speech/singing :)

it was soo cute.

also, the cupcakes were awesome.

(though it was technically a muffin with cheese icing.

i had a blueberry one,

it was very blueberrylicious.

sorry i have been out of action this week.

been stressed out as usual

this stupid research subject has been completely draining me

because when i do assignments or reports

i usually spend whole days on it

and because this is such a continual thing

sort of

it has been taking up most of my energy

this semester

even though 90% of the time spent for it

i'm not actually doing anything

i'm more or less stressing about what a hard task this is going to be

sigh.

i'll be back on schedule (haha) next week.
