Every Exit Is An Entrance To Somewhere Else

Brainwashed to the core.

Happy Belated New Year!
Quiet New Years for me. We didn't even watch/do the countdown, second or third year in a row. We're such an exciting family haha.
So far the New Year has been.....same as always, lazing around.
2012 isn't the end of the world, no surprise. In my opinion, that would happen some day. But i don't think it will be 2012.

Another 2 weeks and i'm off to H.K. for 3 weeks, exciting. Planning to do some shopping there, but then H.K. isn't that cheap anymore....so we'll see what we can get. Still i wrote a list just in case. The main thing though is to EAT!! Think i'll put on some kilos hehehe.

The only thing i can think of that i'm hating is the weather. I'm not fond of being hot, luckily its been cooling for the past days. Slept on the couch for a few days downstairs, cos it was that much cooler. But still Summer hasn't really arrived yet, or so i feel. Ugh, wait till uni starts again.....camp out in the library haha. A/C ftw!!
Talking about A/C, the one at work broke down =.=" Man its hot in the dispensary, and basically the whole shop. Its cooler outside, lame. And its new, recently put in....fail. Hopefully it gets fixed ASAP.

This Saturday gonna get my fuzzball cut. Not that there is much to cut anyways, gonna grow it out again. Mum seems to hate my short hair, i thought it was alright. Something different anyways. This time my mum planned for me to maybe get my hair permed. I think just loose curls....see how it goes >_<

Still got some cleaning to do in my room, do that before i leave. And pack some day soon....

Thinking about holidays makes me think of my long lived "dream". I so wish to live in Japan. A year or two....or more. Why? I guess i'm brainwashed by animes and mangas. Typical. But Japan is so interesting without them anyways. Its just that it was through anime and manga that i got to learn their culture and traditions, which is so intriguing.
I love the traditional japanese house with tatami mats, sliding door, futons, baths etc etc. Think you can guess my dream house hahaha.
Its the Land of ALL Cute Things. Its like the inventor of "cute".
Awesome, yummy, and interesting food!! I mean who else can get a lobster out of a vending machine....or underwear haha. They are really such innovative people.
Its a clean country. Kinda hard to explain, but like the recycling, or smoking areas. Its just proper and clean. They really set an example to other countries.
The majority of the people are well mannered and are really "connected". Even strangers have this closeness...which is hard to explain unless you've been to Japan. You can really feel the community.
Festivals!! Obon, tanabata, sakura viewing/hanami, shichi go san etc etc.

Ahhh, i could on and on and on about Japan. Its just such a nice place, having been there twice.
Sometimes i have a thought, "i wish i was japanese". I'll be living in Japan, go to school there....the schools are awesome. Cute uniforms, cultural festival, clubs....*drool*. Its so much more fun. I would so love to relive my school days there haha.
Yeah, i'm totally brainwashed.
But first i've got to master the language basics, going to go do a course once i graduate. That itself is quite fun!! I can't wait. I'm already learning while watching anime...you'll be surprised how much you can learn. You just pick it up, and since you find it interesting its so much easier. Which is why people say, "do what you love". You'll be so much more attentive.

I had always thought about doing an exchange program to go to Japan, in high school and uni. But then knowing my parents, i know they would be against the idea, so it was never put into action. I'll just wait. One day i would live this dream. Maybe not the school part....but everything else. I think i can say once i've accomplished that i can die happily. Yeah....brainwashed haha.
But Japan isn't the only place i want to go. The only other place which has attracted me is Venice, the City of Water. I would like to go visit Venice one day, just for a holiday for a few weeks maybe.

Ok enough dreaming. I think i'll be depressed if i think about it anymore.

Work tomorrow....wish me luck. I hope i don't drown in sweat :|

"Si~lent ni~ght...."

MERRI KURISUMASU~!

A day of rest for the parents; a family day for the family. Festivities in general isn't a big thing in our family. I guess the only thing we do "celebrate" is birthdays and the new year count down. Oh and mooncakes haha.

Maybe we can go somewhere next year for Christmas. I've always wanted a white Christmas (yeah i know, a lot do). Though really i just want to see snow. Missed the snow period in Korea, think when we left it started snowing again.....*disappointed*. Same with Japan, no snow...but that was the wrong season altogether haha.

Anyways, enjoy the festive day...either peacefully or noisily, safely! メリークリスマス!!

Merry or "merry".

2011-12-24T17:40:00.003+08:00

Christmas eve (though feels just like any other day).
Nothing special today. Wait, scratch that. Something "special" did happen. We sold it. The restaurant is sold. 18th Jan 2012, we'll be gone.
Mixed feelings here. Its great news, to me. A sigh of relief. Not that i hate it. My life today would be thanks to it, to my parents working there for the past 16 years to raise us up. Though on another note it was the cause of the downfall in the family. Sure we have a fortunate life; money to spend, clothes to wear, food on the table, a house to live in. But i would have to say, thanks to it, the relationship of the family became awkward. Parents argue cos of work, argue with the brother cos of work, worrying about employing people, worry about the business etc. And because of it, body aches and pains developed from the years being there.

I'm happy we sold it. Parents aren't young anymore. I know they're tired. I've been secretly thinking for quite some time they should stop working there. Maybe it's earlier than expected, i'm still not at the point where i can fully financially support them. But its great that we can do more family things, hopefully. Things that have been missing for a long time. I admit that i'm not a daughter one would be proud of, but now i have a chance to make up for that. I want to mend this awkwardness.

I told my mum we should go out for dinner that night, the 18th Jan 2012. My mum told my dad while we were having lunch. My dad pauses and looks at me and says, "what, go out and celebrate or something? i'm becoming unemployed, i won't have anything to do...". Well i didn't mean it that way. All i meant was that finally we can go out and have dinner as a family. The only day we ever really go out for dinner is christmas day. Why? Its the only day we're closed. Yeah, working 364 days....typical asian worker. Hard working. But along the way, things are sacrificed. Maybe it could've been balanced out...but as i said, we're a awkward family.

Its expected that my dad would be sentimental and depressed about it, thinking what should he do now. Would take time for him to get over it. A lot of things will change. But things change every day. Humans adapt quite well.
Don't know what's coming our way, but i'm thinking it won't be so bad. As long as there's time, we can work it out. We'll just take it slow....ly.

---

Anyways, enough of family stuff. I'm happy about it. Period.

Just a few days ago i was considering getting the Circulation Booster for the parents. But now i'm not so sure, mixed reviews about it :|
Caught in a dilemma. Thinking i should ask around at work now, ask some non-virtual beings instead. But then i would miss the christmas special, save $10 haha.
Its strange though. They say on the site that we'll save $100+ but i phoned terry white for their price and its the same as buying it online. Just didn't make sense to me, we'll be saving $100+ everywhere we go? I'm sure its just some marketing facade.

Work is busy, busy, busy. Everybody trying to get their worth of the safety net. And then before you know it we'll be hearing complaints all over again about prices going up. Especially the elderly with concessions. "What $5.80? I used to pay $3 (something).", or there'll be the odd customer saying "over in [insert country name] we get medication for free". I'm thinking too bad, we're in Australia....you gotta pay for everything.

Oh and finally i have someone who understands me at work. The previous pharmacist who did the webster packing bought up the issue with me last friday. I never mentioned it to anyone. I felt so touched. Did she read my mind or something. She's taken the initiative to talk to H about getting either E/J to help me pack, since i am doing less hours. So the plan is that i will share it with J. Still to be put into action, wait till New Years is over i think. I was just so happy, was trying hard to contain my happiness when she was asking me haha.

So i guess, all is good.

Feliz navidad!!

2011-12-12T00:09:00.001+08:00

Can't sleep, so i shall blog about the day.
Day of packing websters all day, was such a quiet day in the shop. Maybe since the shopping centre was open and the surgery next door closed early for unknown reasons, again. But all the better for webster packing, maybe not so for the boss. Meh.

Had an hour to prep up for the party. But first things first was to check emails, fb etc lol. Ended up with 15 mins to prep....good enough lol.
Haven't worn heels in agessssss, which means sore feet. How do those girls wear stilettos, i have to say i'm amazed.

Started off slow, gradually building up with people warming up to others. Had a lot of fun; eating, dancing (macarena, tennessee waltz, taiwanese dance), singing some christmas carols (learnt feliz navidad, catchy song haha), games (woo! i got to be an angel lol), setting up, help out in the kitchen. Enjoyed the two performance by a few aunties; amazing voice, and my first time seeing the chinese harp being played (besides tvb dramas haha). Majority of the aunties and some uncles kind of assumed i spoke mandarin, i only understood a bit of it. So it was mostly nod and smile, or try to speak in very very basic mandarin haha, which got me through the night safe and sound. Met some very nice people and families, and stayed with daddy majority of the night.
Even got to see two santas hahaha! An asian one and a canadian one....the more the merrier! haha.

Disappointed i didn't manage to take some photos. But everyone was busy anyways, so i guess it will just be a night to be remembered. And of course, Anny and Tro did a good job being the MC's haha.
All in all: good food, good company and good entertainment is a good night!!

You know....

2011-11-21T21:20:00.001+08:00

...that feeling when you rushed to do something and thinking you are finally done, but then realise you missed something and have to do it ALL OVER AGAIN.

Yes that's what happened to the pharmacist tonight.
He rushed to do the troche, did it perfectly and all. Just 10 mins past closing time, ready to go home....just needed to print out one last sheet. And then BAM, he realised he forgot the flavouring. Oops.
He has to redo it all over again. I would hate to have been in his position. Wanting to go home already but have to redo one troche. He told me to go home, i feel bad about it, but like he said "there's nothing else you can do here than wait". Which is true, i've pretty much closed up the shop already, everything's all set to go.
I wonder if he's still there....maybe not. Doesn't take that long to make it.

Its like the saying "slow and steady wins the race". Sure that's the best way to approach things. But in this day and age, being slow isn't economical or efficient. In chinese we have a saying, but i'm not sure how to translate it. Basically, its along the lines of when you do something do it fast, accurately, and presentable. Or in the case of food; to be quick, yummy and presentable. Westerners are always amazed at asians in any asian country. The most common thing they mention is at how fast we do things.

Not sure if i'm not used to the western culture, although born as an Australian, ABC, but i hate eating out at western restaurants. Its bearable if with friends, but if i had a choice i'd rather not go. For example, you go out to a fancy restaurant and order a steak. The restaurant is rather quiet,not busy, but you wait for at least 30 minutes before any sign of the steak appearing. And all it takes is about 10 minutes top to eat it? Ok so maybe your supposed to enjoy the food and eat a bit slower. But that all that waiting makes you even more hungry. I could've gone home and make a steak in 10 minutes. What is there to do? Spice it, flip it and plate it. And whats with asking how we'd like the steak. I have yet to have a steak which is done according to the request, medium rare. If you can't do it, don't ask.

But that's not the only thing that ticks me off. The size!
Massive plates with the tiniest portions (or salad more than anything else) topped off with the highest prices. Nothing about western food appeals to me. All i can say about it is, you can pretty much do it all at home, for part of the price and be much more satisfied.

Same with eating out and ordering a salad. I don't see the point of buying a salad when you are going out to eat, hence i'm not a fan of stores like Sumo Salad. Why pay for something you could've made at home. Even buying sandwiches is a bit iffy to me. But various reasons like wanting to be healthy, didn't make your own lunch or something else i can understand. But salad is a different story. Maybe its just me, when i go out to eat i wanna eat something i can't or have difficulty making at home (or other reasons). Otherwise what's the point? For the sake of spending (or waste) more money?

So once again, i ended up ranting about something else. Typical.
Results out tomorrow night. That time of the year again.

Learning more about you.

2011-11-16T22:23:00.001+08:00

Being a bit occupied yet free, decided to look up on how to take polaroid photos. Yes i know, aim and shoot. But no i meant like....the skill? How to produce good photos, getting the right angle etc. in one go.
Anyways, nothing came up to what i was expecting, though i wasn't looking in depth anyways....but i found something interesting i should note.

Here are two small things on the technical side that will affect how your photos turn out: how they are developed and the temperature. Don't shake your Polaroid. Contrary to popular belief, and a popular song, shaking your picture doesn't make it develop any faster. Vigorous shaking can actually damage the image and cause blobs in the picture. Minimal shaking probably won't affect the image very much but in order to get the best picture you should place the photo on a flat surface and not disturb it until it is done processing.

To be sure to get the correct colors in your photos, store your camera and film in room temperature. Film that is too cold may turn out with a blue tint and film that is too warm may turn out with a yellow tint.

Something we were doing wrong today...shaking the image. Well it did say on the instruction pamphlet, i let it slide. But now i know it can cause blobs, maybe i'll have to alert everyone. The film temperature, not really sure how i could control that besides keeping it in a cool area, out of direct sunlight?

I guess its a trial and error to see how i can get good photos, play with it more. The "bad" photos are actually not so bad....quite funny most of the times haha, like the "paranormal" hand we got in one of them today haha.

Getting hot and sweaty, down and dirty.

2011-11-16T19:11:00.001+08:00

The most fun, awesome, best......limited vocabulary haha....BBQ ever!!
The food was yummy, and someone bought alcohol hahaha. Didn't get to try the other bottle, next time XD

Wind sailing is really awesome!!! Today's weather made it a great experience, being smooth and all. Singing and having everyone passing by looking at us, acting like pirates, stranded for a moment when we couldn't catch the wind haha, speeding in the water, racing with the others, wet bums....it was worth it. Should go longer next time. But too bad no kayaking :( Wanted to row a boat! And unlucky that some people had to leave early, though it was still enjoyable. Do it again some day....maybe a different venue? But i wanna sail with the wind again!!

Tried a bit of poi, and of course i sucked. Ended up self beating....yeah. But its interesting. Lots of photos, of course our personal cameraman haha. Wait till he uploads lol. Wish we could've taken photo whilst wind sailing, or even record us lol....gee it was hilarious on the boat. Got some good polaroid photos too. Finally figured out how to focus/position with a polaroid after experimenting with Tro while waiting for a train home. Got a good photo from it :D

Had some intense cricket, showed how out of shape i've become. Panting after a few runs, i'm ashamed hahaha. But it doesn't matter, we won. Woohoo!! Daddy and daughter combo ftw haha. Finally did some form of exercise. The observers were lying around, relaxing. Tro squirming around like some squid/octopus, and also enjoyed my lap pillow. Don't think i enjoy the grinding though hahaha!

Took some more photos to finish the day. Posing, climbing some trees haha, back to our primitive instincts? But damn wind had to blow my hair in my face, bad angle :| I gave up.

In the car heading home, we started to discuss the next plans. We have lots to do!! Hope we can do most of it. Everybody's gonna be busy next month, and most would be leaving in Jan...like me :)
The list gets longer and longer: ice skating, movie, board game cafe in Northbridge, darklight, bowling, rock climbing, adventure world, fremantle.

I'm exhausted now. Throat is really sore, too much singing and screaming haha. I'm also feeling like a burnt sausage (so dark), its only the first summery day too. Have a tan on my back, but that's ok. When winter comes it'll even out again, like it does every year haha.

Man....good day, good memories.

Days of my "life".

2011-11-15T14:39:00.001+08:00

Supps were sent out yesterday, possibly still more to come. And i haven't received one, a blessing or not we'll see. One more week to be fully free.
But forget all that for now.
Nothing interesting has happened besides one or two outings. No surprise there.

Felt like starting a new blog, but too lazy to commit to it. Got the spark when i was reading Post Secret. Don't we all hide a lot of things from even your closest family/friends. Maybe it wasn't intentional, maybe you just couldn't bring yourself to say it openly. Afraid to be judged, afraid of ruining the present and possibly the future, or maybe you just didn't have the courage. Various and numerous reasons as to why we keep a secret/confession or two...or more. I know i have heaps. Tend to hide the truth in fiction....yes i lie, we all do. Maybe i should keep a diary of truth. That sounds interesting. The only thing is i hope no one ever finds it to read, now i need to find me a good hiding spot haha.

BBQ tomorrow, going to be fun and good weather....i wanna kayak!!

Random: i like basketball. But of course i suck, i'm so much better in my imagination....

Was thinking i should visit the public library and go borrow some books out to read. I haven't been there in such a long long time. Not ever since i started finished high school i think, and started to buy the occasional books. Good times, library was my favourite place in and out of school, borrow all these books to read. The max amount allowed. Made me feel kinda responsible too, having a library card of my own, being able to use it whenever i like haha. Reading all day and night, not sleeping (or study haha).

Last year of high school they decided to make a library club....of course i joined, but damn why in my final year!! We got to read new books and decide if the library should keep it, was pretty fun. One sad thing though, i remember wanting them to buy a series of book, they only had book 1 & 5. They never bought it, i even requested twice :( But that doesn't matter, i came across them in big W one day and bought them myself. Now i'm having this urge to indulge myself in a book. I still have pile which i haven't read. Some were from my aunt, where some of them are series....and she didn't exactly buy them all.

Pet peeve: to have a missing book from a series, or even worse book 1 is missing. I can not read the books i have in hand unless i have the whole series, or is absolutely sure i can obtain it somewhere. If i buy it, has to be every single book. Why buy book 2, and maybe 4. So when you want to read it again...go to the library for the rest, what if they don't have it? Or just read the ones you have? Annoys me. Kinda the same with movies/anime/manga, basically anything that's a series.
Anyways wonder if the library will take my old books. Doubt the secondhand bookshops will like them, or sell.

Still have to clean my room, maybe next week after results. A room makeover is what i need. Get rid of all these random useless things which i kept cos i felt heartless throwing them away (you never know, you might use it ONE day). Actually i'm still like that, but i'll try.
Should see the dentist soon too.
And the exercise i was meaning to start....

Excitinggg!

2011-10-24T22:09:00.001+08:00

So excited......ONE PIECE IS AWESOME!
Oh and....YAY!! MY EXAMS ARE OVERRR!!
Don't ever want 2 exams in one day, but let's put that aside...cos i'm over it.

One Piece is amazing. The longest series i know, but with everything in it plus the pirate theme. And to me, not one episode is boring...which is a job well done for a long series. Like Bleach can get boring sometimes...but no, One Piece is awesome from episode 1 all the way till the current episode which is 518...and we're only half way :O Wonder how long they're gonna make it.
When i am asked what's my favourite i would normally say i don't have one that i hate, and i can't choose one above another. But i guess that would have to change, OP tops my list...for long series lol. And gee, how exciting is the New World Chapter season.....only one thing about OP i dislike is they drag the episodes out a bit....i want to know what happens!!! One episode a week is killing me, and then there's breaks from Christmas or New Year i assume....devo.

But anyways....good luck for exams peeps!
And enjoy the looooong 4 months, lots of plans!! Party time....but gotta wait for the Pharm peeps, i can keep myself entertained. Hope the rain isn't gonna be all Summer, and i hope it wouldn't be an oven all Summer....i hate sweating like a waterfall even when i'm just sitting down :(

The wandering mind.

2011-10-18T23:51:00.000+08:00

Should be concentrating on studying....only 5 days left, but the mind wanders.
I've been thinking ever since iphone 4S came out that the Siri app is pretty awesome. The only thing that i like about the new phone. Obviously the battery is gonna be bad, and the rest will be upgraded in upcoming iphone 5. Basically its worth to wait and see what's gonna happen with iphone 5. Maybe they'll do Siri in other languages, or extend battery (something that needs attention!).
But on side note, my dream phone (or precisely one that i really want over any other phones, even Siri) is a flip phone. Yes....heading back to the past. I love flip phones. In particular, the Japanese block looking flip phones. And what other colour than pure white. One thing i like about Apple products is that they come in white....something about technology and white....they are just compatible. So yes, i would love to get a white block flip phone. Oh and this reminds me...i wish iphones can have phone attachments/straps and have customised ringtones without the use of apps like any other old phone.

Randomly, how do you write in photos. Like with your hand and its captured in the photo....if you get what i mean. Some kinda special effect with lighting or something. Pretty cool. But out of all the photos i've seen, it seems to only be taken at night time. Need some camera expert to enlighten me about this, though i have no camera to utilise the effect. But knowledge is power lol.

Getting to more random and serious thinking.
Just the other day i was telling my friends a random thought that popped into my mind while lining up for bbt, people only get famous when they die. True right? Don't think so? There's a couple of examples. No. 1 would be the recent death of Steve Jobs. There's so many that didn't know who he was....until he died. No one really emphasised his great works....until he died. So why didn't we praise him like we are now, when he was alive?
Then we have Michael Jackson. A couple of years before he died, numerous gossips and whatnot about him being a child molester and paedophile, or his bad nose job. So what happens when he dies? That is buried under the carpet and he was once again praised for his music.
Its like an artists life. Only when they die, do their works have value.
When they were alive they may have not been famous, famous for different things, or less famous compared to how they are now now that they have passed away.
Pretty sad.
And what's sadder is....we forget. Now we are praising Jobs and how much he influenced the world. In a few months not many will remember.

How many of us remember about the catastrophe that happened in Japan, or what about the floods in Queensland. People haven't fully recovered from them. But who actually remembers.

Just one last thing.
Personal list of things to start doing 24th October, 6PM onwards (while i remember).

Clean room=desk, drawers, books, every nook and cranny.
Fix up my calendar.
Finally pin up my whiteboard and use it.
Clean up my clothes....time for some donations.
Clean up my hard drives, plus computer...delete unnecessary things.
Donate blood! Been so long.
Haircut. I need a trim.
Plan outings. So much to dooooo.
EXERCISE!! Zilch since i attended uni, so unhealthy.
Fix up work hours...and tell them my vacation dates to be filled.
Get new glasses, possibly more contacts too.

That should be it for now....

And i think i should go to sleep. Too many random thoughts.

Hearing between the lines.

2011-10-12T18:42:00.001+08:00

So i mentioned we recently found a new girl to work just a few weeks ago.
Recently she has been sick, last week and this week again. I was asked to work for tomorrow, sure why not......since i haven't agreed to one in ages. Only after did i realise i promised to go shopping with turtle. But they did mention that the girl said if she was feeling better, she will work.
One thing i really dislike is to be left hanging, having no definite answers. Which is also why i like to be organised, plan well ahead, and knowing things ASAP....though that is totally not true in the study area haha. Cramming seems to be the strategy that i have to resort to almost every time.

Anyways, i took the initiative and texted the girl asking if i'm still working for her. She replied that she's feeling much better so she presumably can work. So i take it that she can. For the sake of being responsible i called the pharmacy to tell them, just in case. One, the girl didn't call them to say she's able to work. And two, i'm already paid. So my co-worker said she can call the girl tomorrow morning to see if she's working OR i can just work since i'm already paid, "its up to you, we've already paid you so you can take the shift if you want, its yours"....which i guess means "we've paid you, please work". When they say that i start to feel bad, but its not like i'm never going to give it back. For as far as i know i haven't owed one cent to them. I've told them when i was over paid, and of course when i was under paid, because being honest is part of my work ethics.

In the end i said no i'd rather they double-checked if the girl can work or not. I will work if she can't, but if i don't have to....i don't really want to. As for the money, don't worry....its not gonna disappear.

Maybe i should've said i will just do it and please them. But no, i want to spend time more with turtle....the money isn't that important to me, yet.

Shop till i drop.

2011-10-11T14:07:00.003+08:00

Its more like shop till my wallet is hole-y, a sad moment.

Was only going to quickly shop for a present for TRO. But when a girl says she'll be quick or thinks she will be, the exception is always shopping and getting ready. No doubt.
First off as always: $2 shop!!! or as i recently realised its called Price Savers. Lives up to its name, definitely. The best place to get cards/wraps/bags. And then the random things, like notebooks, a mini diary, a cup, kitchen utensils (i'm amazed at that....must be china lol) and so on. I ended up stocking up my depleted stock of birthday cards, a 2012 calendar and mini diary and a couple of notebooks. Oh and whiteboard markers for my mum...aren't i nice :D Price doesn't matter haha!

Shopping is always along the lines of a treasure hunt, only you have to pay for your treasures haha. But the process of finding is fun! I used to dislike shopping, nothing to buy...same shops all around....didn't have money to buy....and other various reasons. But i think i'm getting into my role of being a girl....shopping can be so fun. Even alone lol. I can spend more than half an hour in one shop just browsing, and contemplating whether i should buy it or have some self-restraint. Either way, its win-win...for me.

Next stop was Lovisa. Had no idea what to get my turtle. I think i spent close to an hour in there.....and came out with a bag of goodies, strayed away from my original purpose (my bad). 3 for 2 ftw. Unsure where to head next....but ended up in Valley Girl cos of the mannequins displayed. The dresses this season are pretty cute! Floral seems to be in now. Tried on a few, and came out with a bag....again XD I was a bit excited trying on the dresses that i've chipped my glasses lens from dropping it :( But who cares!!!! hahaha. Get ready for SUMMERRRR!

Ended up getting TRO something, found something cute!! Cute enough that i got one myself, wait till she finds out hahaha. She shall receive it Thursday, early present!
The trip was tiring, and decided to go home while i was still sane and minimise further damage to my wallet.
One of my favourite moments of shopping is actually coming home and taking everything out and just admire what i've bought. The feeling of satisfaction is just....satisfying, haha. And then think of when i should use it lol.

Though that's over and done with. Now time to spend my night working on this assignment + report.

Oh and i shouldn't forget to mention that i'm BLOODY EXCITED FOR HOLIDAYS!!!
Its going to be never like before. My goal is to for once complete my list of things to do in the holidays. So far we have: movie, bowling, rockclimbing, mandurah, freo, bbq, darklight, karaoke, ice skating. I think i'm close to forgetting the existence of the upcoming exams hahaha.
But anyways, good luck everyone....those that have upcoming exams....or life in general? :)

Love is forgotten in the presence of greed.

For 16 years my parents have worked peacefully with their business. No problems have ever occurred. Until the neighbours came.

Their cafe is small, only a couple of tables can fit. People often say that the place is cramped. So they try to expand it. They put extra tables in the verandah (or something along the lines of that), which is meant to be a footpath, in the hallway entrance to the plaza. To top it off they even put a table right in front of our door, to the point my dad couldn't enter the shop. Stupid right. Yes, you need space but please do so in your own premise and don't crossover to ours....is what my dad told them. Fair and square. We thought that would be the end. But no. They tried to put tables on our verandah too. My dad once again told them to keep to their own premises. So they backed off.

We have a public toilet that is for everyone to use in the plaza. We were asked by the agent if its ok we now use a padlock for the toilets because it is becoming increasingly littered and dirty. We agreed, nothing wrong with that. But here's the catch. In the mornings, when the cafe is open....the padlock can be kept off. Its only at night time, when we are open, that it should be locked. Um come again? Are you implying the public toilet is dirty because our customers? So people that come in the mornings can't litter and dirty the place? A load of BS. And do note, in the mornings outside people e.g. from the beach can come into the plaza too, and more frequently than at night. But its not the end of it.

My parents are getting old, and has over the years developed occupational pain. Recently they were discussing to maybe sell the business. Though the question of what my parents can do after we sold the business is another issue. Of course, our neighbours heard about this from the agent. They want to expand the cafe, and our shop is just what they need. They did come over to discuss about it but turned out to be a no deal. And trouble started. Oh and i shouldn't forget to mention the agent is BEST FRIENDS with them, pretty important not to forget that.

The owner of the plaza has been trying to get it redeveloped over the couple of years, but just recently the plan was rejected. For the past few years we were working, unsure when we have to leave, but now its definite that we can continue for another couple of years if we wanted to. Our lease is close to expiring, the end of the year. And before we get the new lease, some ridiculous changes has happened. Not only is only our rent going to be increased to 55-70%, we are forced to use our verandah otherwise the neighbours are allowed to use it. Are you for real, this is more than crossing boundaries. I'm lost for words. And you don't really need to be smart to connect the dots. The agent is helping the neighbours to kick us out. If we don't sign the contract, they don't lose anything. They've got someone who wants it. And to top it off, the ones who want it won't have to pay a cent. For now we're still trying to figure out things. They can wish all they want, use all their dirty tactics and whatnot. But one thing's for sure, we are definitely not going to give it up to the neighbours...even if we have to sell it to the poorest guy.

What has become of this world, or more like i've gotten a reality check. My parents working their butt off peacefully for 16 years. Pays rent on time, no complaints, nothing...and what do they get in return? Greedy people trying to kick them out with dirty tricks. I'd like to believe in karma....but sometimes i question whether there is karma. Good people didn't seem to get good karma. Or maybe time will tell.
You hear about all the stories, watch dramas about it, read about it in the paper....but you never believe it will happen to you. Until one day it does. But that's reality, you will never 100% believe something until the day it happens to you.

I do wonder if the neighbours believe in God. If they do, they broke one of the ten commandments. I wonder how that makes them feel. But obviously the only thing they feel is being greedy.

"...And there is no greater disaster than greed" for the "Greedy eaters dig their graves with their teeth."

Humans.

Currently watching an old jap drama called Proposal Daisakusen (woo Yamapi!! <3). Yeah should be studying...its just a looooong break haha.

Anyways, the narration in the beginning makes an impression on me which i thought i'd like to share.
"Human beings look for reasons when things don't go well. The circumstances, the timing, the weather and the luck. They put out all these various excuses to console themselves. "It wasn't supposed to turn out like this." "If only i could do it all over again." Will it really turn out well if you get to do it all over again? Since they failed the first time, where did that confidence of success the second time round come from? "

Yes humans make excuses, but our determination and regrets help push us forward. Losing or failing doesn't make us weaker, instead i'd like to think it makes us stronger. From the loss or fail we learned, and hopefully improved for the better. We are constantly changing, influenced by our surroundings....as long as we have grasped that confidence, why wouldn't we be able to succeed the second time round.

People always think i'm happy-go-lucky. Its just my way of dealing with life. Changing your mood can change your day. A happy person has to live each day, a sad person still has to live each day....then why not live life as a happy person? Its only really the end of the world when you die, and worse if you died unhappy. Its your life, and you do have a choice.

Ok....that's just straying from my original purpose. I'm sure you've heard it countless time, but still people forget and needs to be reminded. There's always trouble in life, just learn to deal with it, get over it, and live happily ever after. Cos as a famous quote says, "life goes on". Pretty simple. But we're only human, and we like to complicate things. So hooray for having an advanced brain, thanks evolution.

Btw watch this. Inspirational. Made me think about my life, plus its entertaining. R .I.P. Steve Jobs.

Every time i hear people say "do what you love most", i ask myself....do i love what i'm doing right now. And my answer always tend to be "i don't know". I guess its a no/neutral. So i haven't found what i love. I'll just stick around, i'm sure one day i'll find it. Its all part of life.

Let off some steam.

2011-10-03T23:19:00.003+08:00

I like my job.....but not as much now, little things getting on my nerves.
I don't hate it, but feeling less inclined to it.
Thing here and there that just makes me annoyed/frustrated; the websters, staff, staff, staff, websters, websters websters.

I take some days off, not because i felt like it but because i had no other choice, and was then told "it pressures the other staff". What the hell. As if X didn't take holidays off every couple of weeks, totally no pressure on the rest of us. Plus i worked for them when i was friggin' crippled. Anyone cared to help me out? I had to sound all sorry for BEING crippled and inconveniencing them. Wait till i have to ask for summer holidays....too bad, i do have a life besides work contrarily to what you think.
Plus Y is such an unfriendly co-worker. All she has is that pout and attitude. She hardly talks to me besides asking me to help work for her/do something.

Then there's the websters. No one else can pop pills but me. I'm the only one with fingers to do such a complicated task. I'm expected to do them all on Saturday when its just the pharmacist and i. It wouldn't hurt if they got someone to help me. Its not like i'm quitting the responsibility, i just like an extra hand, split them up maybe. We finally have enough staff to spare JUST one. If i take days off, affecting the webster packing, i'm to do another 2 weeks in advance. One month in total....oh the joy. Seriously they don't seem to see why it would be a problem, its only a problem if i can't pack. I'm not superwoman!
People can be so selfish

Seriously for now work is the least of my priorities. I'm only working for experience and while i'm at it saving up.

Sometimes its best if you just watched and let it unroll itself.

2011-09-17T23:03:00.001+08:00

The conversation started out pretty normal, how's the day been, what's happened.
Then it continued on to the usual worries, as per usual.
But it then led to raging me.

My mum is the biggest worrywart i've ever known. She worries about everything, anything, and sighs frequently (gets on my nerves sometimes).
Today my job was of interest. "Why not just work one day?" Why should i? "You have studies..." I've been working more than a year already. "How is it, do they give you a break, do you have to work non stop, isn't the hours quite long, what do you do, do you learn anything etc etc".....yes the worries of a mother. But it becomes overwhelming and frustrating. She continues and mentions that 8:30-6 is such long hours....i'm not complaining, so why are you? Why all of a sudden did you decide to complain about it when its already been a year and a half. "I'm worried you'll be too tired" I'm fine, its ok. "Why don't you just quit work?" *facepalm* This goes in circles....her reasons are justifiable, but i don't see why i should concede. Sometimes it just seems so hypocritical; we're taught to work hard and be responsible. When i feel like i've had enough then that's that. But for now, its fine as it is....and you should stop worrying about it since i'm not. Let me for once judge what seems right and just watch over me, or if need be guide me.

She means the best for all of us, we all know, she even reassures us of it. But most of the times i just can't help myself but lash out my frustration at her. Why can't she stop worrying about something that isn't so much of a deal. Why can't she see that the matter at hand is something that will turn out like it was meant to be. Why can't she let it be; "life goes on". Then i guess she's thinking why can't i agree with her. She needs to let herself loose, just relax....let US live our life, we'll manage. And probably realise its time to stop holding our hands and just watch over us. Maybe its a different generation, maybe its the age, maybe its the personality, or maybe its a bit of all.

Maybe i'll have to be a mother to understand.

Feeling like a magnet.

2011-09-17T20:27:00.002+08:00

What's with it lately...accidents happening everywhere around me.
Today's was even crazier.

So i rock up to work at 8:20 (i walk to work) and there's a firetruck, ambulance, police and a small crowd. I was thinking to myself, did something happen to the pharmacy, did we have a break in again....who is hurt?! So i jogged to the shop and i see a Indian lady going on the ambulance and a smashed red car in between the bushes, right in front of the dentist's front door (a surprise for them on monday morning, unless someone contacted them).
It was pretty amazing, its like how the heck did it get there since it was quite an obscure spot. Too bad i was a bit slow with my camwhore instincts, only got a photo of it when it was already pulled out...and i was in the shop rather than walking out for a close up....there were still guys out there cleaning up etc.

So it was pretty shocking, and all i wanted to know was how did that happen. The pharmacist arrived a couple of minutes after me, we opened up the shop then she went out and asked one of the fireman. The gist of it was that a small ute/truck crashed into the car at the traffic lights (wth!!) and the car went airborne and flew into the carpark. That is like a couple of meters!! What are the odds of that....a flying car....thought that happened only in Harry Potter haha.

It looks worse than that....you should see the area it crashed into; a metal pole totally bent to the ground, a chunk of bush is missing which is on the OTHER side of the car park, just a total mess. But woah, makes you think what's wrong with the driver.....but i think i saw the driver of the truck/ute...a guy was being breathalyzed by the police, looked like he was in his mid 20's-30's....but other than that didn't looked drugged/drunk....guess its just another freak accident!

What's with me and freak accidents....i have some kinda attraction with them lately :|

And inevitably the whole day we get customers asking, "what happened outside the dentist?" or "why is there a big hole in the bushes, did an accident happen?". It got pretty annoying repeating the same thing, towards the end of the day it was just "an accident happened, a car got hit at the traffic lights, became airborne and crashed into car park. And it happened this morning.". Everyone was amazed, especially the elderly, they had the big :O face.

But it was good timing in another perspective.
There was no cars yet in the vicinity, and most of all no one was walking there when it happened. So luckily no one was hurt...except for that lady. Oh wait, i was hurt too....i burnt myself on the iron today...damn websters.

Wonder what's coming next, already had a bomb scare and the freak car accident, oh did i mention a dead body was found close to my suburb (but that was a few weeks ago).
I'm excited (lathered with sarcasm).

Even a stranger can make my day.

2011-09-12T21:44:00.002+08:00

Can't remember how long ago it was, but this man came in for the first time to our pharmacy with a script for an antidepressant, escitalopram.I still remember him carrying a baby bag, dressed neatly and seemed a bit reserved, but well mannered. On that night, a monday as well, we were busy pumping through scripts. He stood waiting for his script to be processed. I hear him say to the lady behind him, "No, this isn't my bag....its my wife's, for our daughter!". The lady, surprised, replied, "oh no, i didn't think it would be yours haha". The pharmacy had a laugh, and he mentions that he gets a bit paranoid when people stare at him with the baby bag. Understandable for males to feel that way.

He made an impression that night, and tonight when he came in i recognised him right away. He presented a new script for lexam 10 again. And since he seemed to have some recognition of me, i thought of asking him just before we process the script how he was going. He replied with a simple, "Very good....i feel....happier now". The simple reply made me smile, knowing that a medication although not a cure has helped a patient. Its good news.

A few people were ahead of him so we served them before we got to him. It was extremely busy....monday nights get pretty crazy. When we finally did, he was the only one left. And once he paid, he started to engage the pharmacist and i into a conversation for a good 20 minutes or so. We talked about his life, his job, his family, and other random bits with a few jokes here and there. He was cheerful, approachable and funny, as compared with last time we saw him. It simply made my night, him being happier as well as the enjoyable conversation we had. He definitely has become one of my favourite customer after 2 visits.

One good thing can cancel out the many bad things (or at least forget for a while haha).

A confused mob.

2011-09-12T14:31:00.001+08:00

I think this will be the closest i'll ever be to a "big event".
Having our lunch at the food court at whitfords shopping centre, one dollar cheeseburger haha. An announcement was made, it was incoherent and breaking off....no one knew what was going on. "Attention everyone......*silence*........nearest exist.....*silence*..........thank you". Ummmm...come again.
Everyone looked around to see other people's reaction, no one moved. But we all knew everyone was confused, we can see it. The next minute an alarm goes on....and still everyone was unsure of what to do.
A couple of minutes passed we still sat eating....looking around, being wary. Some people just stand frozen, glancing around at everyone....some just ignored what's happening. Then the same announcement was made, just as bad as the last....and didn't make anything any clearer. But what made people move was a lady walking in her fluorescent jacket telling people to evacuate.

Confused, we obeyed. Everyone started streaming out to the exit, standing around outside...waiting to see what happens next, wanting to go back in. Elderly people slowly shuffling, youngster holding their burgers.....some people holding their bowl of noodles from the chinese shop, like my mum. People around us complaining, some are in a carefree manner, some stood silently and waited. Finally a security guard, i assume, walked out and told everyone to head to the park across the road. People left their plates/bowls of food on the side, some took it with them, like my mum (haha....don't waste food!). An elderly lady asked the man what's happening and all he said was he had no information to comment, only that everyone should evacuate. I'm sure he had some idea....but whatever.

It was quite a scene, minus the panic, dramatic music, and sfx, something i thought i would only ever see in movies or television. A whole mob of people heading towards the park. Further down the road you can see more people coming out from the other exits. I believe it would've been quite a site to onlookers driving past.

My parents and i stood around trying to get a grasp on what's going on, with no success. No one knew. We were told we can't go to get our car, we can only wait here in the park for our safety. But from what danger, who knows.
Polices began arriving, blocking people trying to enter the car park, as well as direct people who were a bit slow to evacuate.
I contemplated with my dad what was going on. It didn't seem like a fire evacuation, in the end we thought maybe it was a bomb threat....or along the lines of that. Then my dad popped up that it was 9/11. I corrected him saying it was 9/12. But would there be some relation, some person(s), although a day late, decided to do something. Or this can just be some random thing that just so happened on this day.

People were spread, some sitting or standing around, either alone or in a group. Chatting about the situation, or continuing their conversation from before, calling friends/family, sitting in the sun reading the newspaper, or like this one girl....getting her hair dyed amidst the confusion. Great example of "time is precious"....

I got tired of waiting, stranded and confused. I suggested to my parents that we just walk back home, which is only like 2 minutes, and just come collect the car in a few hours....since as far as i know, this isn't looking like it'll end in a few minutes.
And here i am, first thing first is to tell the world.
What have i become haha.

Exactly haha....
But i'm totally curious as to wth happened.

The holy pockets.

2011-08-18T21:42:00.000+08:00

Am i the only one who can't control themselves when shopping.
Its not like i'm buying bulk and shopping every day like a shopaholic...its just the impulse buys. To make myself feel somewhat less guilty, i did want it for some time but never really thought about getting it....
Buying a book seems to be less guilty.....its educational! I have tons of books i want to read, either buy online or in the shops (whichever is cheaper); looking at them in the wishlist shall suffice.
I'm attempting to save money for future uses which would validate my reasons of spending, and possibly when i need it more for more "adult" purposes like buying a house/car/you get the picture...but so far its crawling at the speed of a turtle.
I guess like any other person, sometimes (or actually most of the time) wants > needs.

Hole-y pockets can be sewed back up.

You fo cereal?!

2011-08-12T17:47:00.000+08:00

Its been 3 months and still a gaping hole...with an added bonus of delicious-smelling pus, and reluctantly back on antibiotics.
Mum is freaking out, dad is obviously peeved....and me. It will get better.....hopefully.
So after consulting with my pharmacist for a second opinion....i have a possibility of getting osteomyelitis if it goes on....plus the tissues is looking a little necrotic, the little bit of purple-black around the wound. The usual slightly swollen foot. But other than that....i feel fine. Thank goodness...pain is at the bottom of the list....its been pretty pain-free (which was not part of my expectations...then again...so is not healing).

Mum thinks i'm in a "i-don't-care" mood and is peeved at me and freaking out, you'd think she had the infected foot not me....but i just don't feel anything. Yes, its not healing as well as we wanted...but what can i do....gp says everyone's healing time is different, mine just might be taking longer. Ok so 3 months is extremely long, but it WAS looking like it was healing....finally closing....but just never getting there. And now its just taken a detour and all the worst case scenarios pass by.
I'm studying for a job to stand on my feet....and now one foot is thinking it doesn't like that idea.
I don't know what the gp is thinking.....but for sure, i'm going to see a general surgeon/specialist asap.

I'm just so over it. Actually i'm already so over 2011.

Reminder to self.

2011-08-02T13:53:00.001+08:00

I'll think about this all later, 2012 can wait. It will turn out all for the best.

Strangers.

2011-07-27T20:02:00.000+08:00

Where's the fine line between acts of kindness and being a busybody.

People say don't follow strangers.....even if they have candy.
And that looks can be deceiving, but are they really that bad.....
So as soon as i started to walk home, it starts to pour....the beginning of the "great" storm of perth. But yeah, not so happy getting drenched. And the most randomest thing happens. A lady (in her high 20's-low 30's...i think), rolled down the windows of her car and called after me, asking if i wanted a lift home.
Errr....thanks, but no thanks. I told her it was very close, which wasn't a lie, and thanked her.
If i didn't live that close, should i have gotten in.....most likely not. But what made her think i would? Cos she's not driving a white van....and not offering to give me candy? And possibly because she's a female?
Still, i thank that lady for her caring offer.
We are missing people like her in the world; an endangered species.

Bah humbug! 23 it is.

2011-07-13T23:44:00.001+08:00

I'm gonna whinge and rant, be the Z generation that i am. I need to vent out all this negativity like a [female dog].
Can't wait till graduation.
I think that will only be the time when i'm finally considered an "adult", hopefully, even though the legal age for that was like more than...2 years ago? I think it goes like this: baby.....several decades pass......adult.
Sighhhhhhh. What will we, or i, do without them. Probably lots of stuff. Like literally, lots.
Yeah, civilised communication is the way, well if that worked it would have done its wonders maybe 14 years ago. Listening, what listening....ones cemented theirs and the other is going in one way and coming out the other. When one thinks they are right, do you really think if you voiced your thoughts/opinions that they'd notice maybe they aren't. If it really was that easy, how did wars come about (yeah i'm just gonna drag the world into my whinges, i'm just that unreasonable). I mean c'mon even people you think would listen to you aren't really listening, so what are the chances of strangers (okay, maybe it depends on the strangers....). Honestly, thanks for the advice....but really, did you really think i never thought of that?
And about the advices.....only if you were in my exact shoes and you've done that, and it worked....then tell me, please. Half-baked stuff don't go down well with me, i'm not gonna try......oh and i'm not really laughing.

Trust takes a lifetime to gain, yet a second to ruin.

"If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't go after what you want, you will never get it. If you don't step forward, you'll always be in the same place."

23. I'm going to put a line to all this.
I will do it, i will do it, i will do it, i will do it...i will do it!!!
Its time for some evolution around here.

Phew! I feel a notch better. For now.
I'm a half-baked potato. I'm making no sense.....i've made up my mind on something i think i'll be doing......i've gotta man up. Be a man!
What's wrong with me?!
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz......this is where people think "what's the meaning of life?" haha.

A 110% random thought.

2011-07-12T21:33:00.000+08:00

Some people say, "there is always someone _______ than you". Stronger, smarter, poorer, richer.....fatter....uglier or whatever.
But.
What if you were the ______est.

Who's gonna be the one _______ than you?

Oozing with kewtness.

Y's are not too bad. But i really hate hate hate hate hate hate trying to communicate with the X's, sometimes.
They say you don't understand what they're saying blah blah blah, when in fact THEY are the ones that don't understand what you're saying.
And then comes the raging fury....you just wanna walk away and shut them off. No matter how much i'm explaining, angry or not, you're not getting it!!! So why bother?! In some cases, just leave them with their misunderstandings, cos i have given up. They think they are right, you think you are right.....remember from chemistry? Like the magnets? North and north repel, and vice versa? Same thing (kind of).
Its like, you can't empathise with someone unless you've been in their shoes. Well you haven't, hence you can't really empathise, and so you don't really get it. It sounds logical and all when you're saying it, but have you done it before?! Come back and repeat it to me when you've attempted it, thanks.

But on the other hand sometimes their lack of understanding can be advantageous in some ways. They don't really know how certain thing work, hence you can bluff your way through with them....so its not all too bad.
Its just the explanations.....always the explanations. Maybe i'm speaking Dutch or French or Na'vi when i'm explaining hence there's some kind of communication problems...who knows.

Excuse me?!

2011-06-25T21:05:00.001+08:00

Honestly why can't people be understanding.

My pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy, and one of our major compounding is reflux suspensions for babies, such as losec/zoton.
I picked up a call today, a father wanting to pick up a suspension in half an hour.
Now normally we advise the parents to give us advanced notice when they need the next lot, i.e. order when they are getting low, preferably at least a day. In emergency circumstances we would try our best to do it for the customer if they want it the same day they call, it all depends on how busy we are. I wasn't able to make the decision and say sure we can do that, so i passed the call onto the pharmacist.
She listened to father explain the situation again, and she told him that normally we wouldn't really do it, but we will for today...next time give us advanced notice etc etc. She told him to come pick it up at 5 (we close at 6 on a saturday), but he says he can't make it then. So we say come pick it up tomorrow then.
The conversation ended, we are going to make it for them, and they will pick it up tomorrow. Easy.
But the pharmacist was saying that she heard in the background a female (highly likely the mother) yelling rude comments like "F them, F...blah F....F, F, F....", basically a rude mother. Already we know that it was going to be trouble, you can feel it coming.

Couple of minutes later, the phone rang. We knew it was going to be them again.
And bingo. I picked it up, unfortunately.
Be amazed how rude one can be, "i just rang to tell you guys that YOU GOT F***EN SHIT CUSTOMER SERVICE, YOU DAMN C**TS" and hangs up.
I was left there with my mouth dropped, totally flabbergasted.
Really, you serious.....we are doing her a bloody favour and she rings back to swear at us. If we had their phone number, most definitely she'll receive a call to say there will be no suspension for her baby, bad luck find another pharmacy. We can just not do that stupid suspension, we've got the upper hand here if she didn't notice, its not like we are going to lose business from a lousy customer, but for the sake of the baby we did it. Feel damn sorry for the child, and the husband. Most likely henpecked by that b****.
Man, i'm still so pissed about it. Wonder if she's still so thickskinned and is going to pick it up tomorrow, but i bet she's gonna get that husband of hers to get it. And seriously if she brings up another word, i think she can go to another pharmacy which may appreciate her manners. We've noted down the situation, the whole pharmacy would know...and well if we don't do the suspensions for her, then GOOD LUCK FINDING ANOTHER FRICKIN' PHARMACY LIKE OURS TO TAKE YOUR S***!!!

Ok....i've calmed down.
But really, it takes two to communicate and make it work. Give and take. Don't take things for granted. It may take a lifetime to gain trust and forgiveness.
And i honestly feel sorry for that baby girl, hope she doesn't turn into her mother. I'm not much of a saint, can't take stuff like that and be all forgiving. I would even think people like her would be better off to not exist, yes that's harsh. But at least i hope she'll change, which i don't think will come by easily....then i hope someone that is more tolerant and forgiving to her beck and calls to serve her, cos i for one can not.

Random burst of randomness at a random time.

Oh my, not far from a year in neglecting this blog.
But in a spur of the moment i felt like decorating it with some funny shiz. Found them on my high school seniors tumblr....gosh a lot of them are hilarious. Some may be inappropriate, or offensive...be warned. Its just all for laughs XD
Enjoy~!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! i'm sorry taylor...but HAHAHAHA!!!

this is really original....whoever thought of this is pretty awesome

its inappropriate...but i just crack up...bahahahaha!!!

love these kinda jokes....lame i know.....but funny hehehe

i wonder if thats true...but don't feel like wasting my time, ink or noodles to do that.....someone curious enough??

hahaha! took me a second time to get it.....

So true.....asian guys are hot in skinny jean....white guys are gay in skinny jeans...and black guys don't wear skinny jeans, random

asian jokes are funny....

......seems like a legit reason, coughcoughcough

And then here we have the cute/cool ones...after all that...

NAWWWW!!!!!

Kinda amazing....its like a wow moment

I wanna eat you all, nomnomnom!!! So kawaii XD "Ittadakimasu~!"

Wow....its either an illusion from nature or copy and pasted haha

That is awesome!....but i'd need a bigger biscuit pocket, how is one enough, and that small?!

So...an excruciatingly long post of randomness. Hope you laughed at at least one of them....makes me feel abnormal if i'm the only one who was laughing (at all of them).....or maybe to put it nicely, "unique". Even if it was only a smile/grin/smirk, it would have served its purpose.
Have a great holiday peeps.....put your feet up and be a boss.

Maybe i should make a tumblr for random stuff like these.....its an idea....we shall see.

MY FISHES!!!!

2010-10-10T22:05:00.000+08:00

I am totally depressed and peeved, a cross between them.

Like seriously...

For the past few days tapfish kept crashing....its a iphone app....

I got so pissed cos it wouldn't properly run.....and in the end i deleted it.......

I reinstalled it.....but ALL MY FISHES ARE GONE!!!! T_____________T

*emotionally unstable.....*

OK.....*breathe in....breathe out*.

Not the end of the world, only a few fishes........WHICH I SPENT HOURS TO GROW AND BREED, ALL MY PATIENCE AND LOVE!!!

Ok...calm down.......

I've totally deleted it.....never going to install it again.....it makes me sad.

I killed them with a touch of a button.....*sob sob*....i'm a murderer!!!!

I was looking forward to see my new babies which were supposed to be hatching.....yesterday or today....and i killed them before i saw them, well i couldn't see them since the friggin app wouldn't stop crashing!!!

I sound lame don't i......getting upset over a stupid game.....but but but...it was fun!!!

I enjoyed it, gave me something to look forward to....feeding the fishes, cleaning the tank, expressing my love, buying more fishes, experimentally breed between different species to get new random ones......make my fishes happy by buying decorations and plants......

Sighhhh......i miss it.......and it hasn't even been a few minutes since i deleted it....

Maybe i'll download it again and reinstall it again few days later, and start all over again..... :(

Today is so not my day :/

So much for 10/10/10.....its the day i killed my fishes.

RIP my lil fishiesssss, all 28 of you.....in fish heaven.

2010-10-10T15:31:00.000+08:00

Its a fineeee Sunday....a little too windy...and cloudy. Few drizzles.....

Today was gay.

Totally gay.

Even gaytime can't make it any more gayer.

I woke up at 8:38am.

Yeah, 8:38am so what......so what?!!!

I have freaking work at 8:30am!! That's what.

Arghhhh.....i did set my alarm if your wondering.....i just slept a "bit" more than i intended and didn't wake up till it was omg 8:38am =.=""

Lots of things running through my head...but first thing first.....i have to call and tell the pharmacist....since its just me and her working >__<

Was thinking if i should make something up....like there's some problem and i'm now running late....but what problem....

Through the adrenaline rush and blank mind of just waking up shocked....i just told the truth, i slept in...oh the shame. How can sleeping be shameful.....when you sleep in for work.

Luckily i live close....and luckily it was the nice, old pharmacist.

She was ok with it.....i was wondering if i should mention about the pay...since i was late and all....but she didn't say anything, so i didn't bring it up.

And i got friday off!!! Yay!! So excited.

Hear about that later.

Time wasted.

2010-10-03T14:16:00.000+08:00

No regrets here.

B.E.S.T. Dance Crew

Stupid blogger won't let me add a video...so you get the link :/

I found it sooooo hilarious....or i'm lame and find everything funny....ok that sounds like me hahaha, but it really cracked me up hahaha.

Good way to lose track of time and just laugh your head off.

At least it was enjoyable hahaha.

Check out others if your looking for some hilarious yet lame but so hilarious videos...

.....and some others i can't remember.....

I know i'm so productive :D

Don't ever scare me like that...i'm fragile.

2010-10-01T23:03:00.000+08:00

Hahaha...its a load of poo.

Came home to my best friend, my life. Started her up....was all sunshine and rainbows.

Until she tells me her audio isn't working.

Ok that's fine...i can fix you right away.

Then she tells me i have to restart to get it back to normal.

Sure thing...as long as you work again.

So she does her bits.....logs off, shuts down, restarts, welcomes me.........

And thats all she does.

"Welcome" *frozen*

Maybe she cos she had a little stuff up.....i'll restart her again....

She does it all over again.......and welcomes me again.....

*frozen*

What the aldfgoiabnf#dvoaisdso*&fjafasdlf%asodfj!!!!!

I'm desperate.

I restarted her another bazillion times...to only be enlightened with a now getting annoying blue screen with nothing but "welcome" smack bang in the middle, not cool....don't freaking welcome....freaking work!!!!!!

But seeing as i can post now....yes she got fixed.

Just went into safe mode and restored the system to X time. I went back to the past hahaha.

Should've done that earlier....

Getting totally lazy with posting....to be precise nothing interesting to post about.

"hey...it was a good day......i slept"....totally awesome isn't it haha.

Friday is always about work...bet you're all itching for my updates at work. Ok fine...i just have nothing else to talk about hahaha.

4th December...christmas party!! yay!!

A river cruise dinner, for freeeeeee. That's pretty awesome.

Only thing i'm kinda "worrying"....what the heck do i talk about with my colleagues OUTSIDE of work....

Hardly see them (only work with the pharmacist on the days i work)....don't know them much....whereas they have known each other for decade/s.

Plus age gap....married with children, or just became pregnant or just married....etc. You get the gist...i don't really fit in, other than i'm also human and we work at the same place.

But they are all tremendously nice....unless they haven't shown their true colours hahaha jokes.

So i'm excited to go, yet not that excited when i think about that.

Tomorrow i'm going to be working with a pharmacist that i've never worked with before.

She used to work, but had a baby...so now she's back.

Please, please, please let her be easy going........9.5 hours awkwardness is not fun.

Like my boss, nice guy and all....but so awkward working with him, he's so quiet and is busy...whereas i only have so much to stock and arrange, and standing around in front of your boss isn't all that great....luckily i've only ever worked with him for no more than 4 hours....any more and i think i'll want a hole and hide.

Claire, the pharmacist i normally work with on fridays and saturdays, the one who's recently pregnant.....she has a bump now!!

Yeah yeah...."duhhhh she's supposed to, the baby is growing dumbo".....but but but....its like the first time i've seen the progression.

Last week it was only looking like she ate too much....but today...it was roundish....."oooo round".

Reminds me of one of the pharmacy assistant lady has been asked by numerous customers, "are you pregnant?"...only to get the "no i'm not........i'm just fat" response.

Not really her fault....quitted smoking....so weight gain was kinda inevitable.

I remember one lady that did it stood in the shop for like 10 minutes going "i'm sooo sorry, i'm sooo sorry"....seemed like she was going to cry.

Then there was another who was like "oh i'm sorry....maybe you should try and lose some weight"....woah! its already embarrassing to be thought pregnant....adding salt to a wound really burns.....

Be aware that they were both old. Enough said.

And today Claire asked me if i would like to do the websters for her during summer break.

I agreed.

Its only one day, unlike others who have to do it every day. So i don't really mind.

Plus its boring at night.....its either i stand around aimlessly or do websters......for me i choose websters. I'm always hoping on fridays that she would not finish her websters so i get to do some. Time passes quicker that way and i'm not totally damn bored.

Guess i still have to be exposed to the horrendous webster packing some more before you'll hear me complain haha.

So yeah, other than work, nothing in my "life" (eat, sleep etc etc) is different.....maybe the awesome weather.

My only excitement now is assignment.....yay!!.....*cough gay cough*.

And just to bring to attention.....holy moly.....5 more weeks and we're done!!!

If i've unknowingly stressed someone.....i didn't mean too.....just emphasising how quick the year has passed.

Summer...summer....SUMMERRRR!!

Changes.

2010-09-11T00:57:00.001+08:00

Finally decided to change the look of the blog.

Just played around with the blogger template design.

Kinda failed it a few times before with btemplates.com, which put me off changing it for a loooooong time.

Bit of a noob in this area haha.

Days have been tiresome. Literally just tired.

Finding caffeine not really doing what its supposed to be. Its doing wonders with its diuretic properties, but the stimulant effect, zilch. My only source of caffeine would only ever be tea. Green tea, english tea, whatever tea. Its so awesome thinking drinking the tea may keep me awake a little but all of a sudden be hit with fatigue. Was better off before drinking it.

Hoping to stay up a little longer than the now habitual 10:30-ish bedtime. But never able to go more than 11-11:30. And its not like i'll wake up early even though i slept earlier.

Read somewhere that sleeping too much is a habit. 7-8 hours of sleep considered the norm, everyone knows that. But my normal is defined as 10-12 hours. But can range from 6-12 hours. And no matter how much i sleep, i would still yawn a few hours from waking. I guess my life partner is destined to be my bed. That sounds bad....if you get what i mean.....touch wood.

I'm totally dead right now. So if its becoming gibberish, blame the tea.

The pharmacy forum on Wednesday was fun. Fun meaning freebies!!!!

Love ego. Was so surprised to see the same guy as last year, was hoping he doesn't remember me. And luckily he didn't. Guess he'll be seeing me again next year haha.

It was quite interesting listening to him talking about the products. And he's funny. So it wasn't all too bad. Would feel kinda guilty if you had to act interested, when all your interested is the free stuff he's gonna give you. I admit i was initially acting interested hahaha, but then it really was interesting.

One thing i was particularly interested was the moov head lice defense spray i think it was. Basically to prevent head lice latching onto your hair, a preventative. Reminded me of the time at work when a family came in for head lice preventatives. Me, knowing nothing at all had to rely on the pharmacist. He said there was nothing that would prevent getting head lice and that there was only treatments for when you do get head lice. I guess this proves him wrong. And the "funny" thing is we actually sell that spray and they were checking that out. Probably cos it says "defense", and they weren't wrong.

The parents, especially the mother, seemed quite desperate to get something. And i saw white dots in the little girls hair......was hoping it was dandruff. Luckily she was a little girl only up to my waist......lice can't jump too far.

Work has been the same as usual. But ever since last week my pharmacist has began to leave her webster packs for me. Everyone hates it, well since they are doing it from start till finish, and every day they work. But i enjoy doing mine, since its only for a couple of hours, and not every single week. Plus, there really isn't anything else to do, i'd rather pop pills than stand around.....nights tend to be quite boring when its quiet. And standing around makes my legs tired.....and i can't help but yawn cos its damn boring and then i feel guilty cos i just yawned. A vicious cycle.

Annnnnnnd.......i'm going to go sleep. What happened to my endless amount of energy to sleep at 3/4. I need my "drug" *wink wink* haha.

Friday.....it always has to be on Friday.

2010-08-28T19:12:00.000+08:00

The strike had to be on Friday.

To be exact a day where 99.9% of the train drivers were "sick". Such a coincidence!!.......not.

It wouldn't have been so bad if i didn't miss my stop =.="""

Yes how stupid was i..........i thought i heard "whitfords".....but i had my earphones in and i just got to the exciting part of my novel.

Just as the doors were closing i looked up and was thinking "omggggggg..........."

I sat there staring at the stop i was supposed to get off.....how great.

So here i was heading to Edgewater.

To make it worse.....i had work at 4:30 with no idea of WHEN a train is coming.

Luckily i had my book with me to keep me occupied.

Or i could have studied.....but that just makes it so much more depressing.

And luckily i had the phone number of my pharmacist so i could contact her. Otherwise i would've been in deep trouble. And luckily i recharged my mobile....was wondering if i should the night before.

It was a bloody long wait.

So long that my ass was hurting sitting on the metal chairs.....yes that long.

If you want a numerical value, i'd say about 45-50 minutes.

There was a moment when there was a train coming.

"YAY!!!! FINALLY!!!" was going through my mind.

But instead of slowing down, it kept on speeding ahead.........

Was totally "YAAAaaay.............wwwWHAAATTT?!!!" =.="""

The train was totally packed when it finally came. Not that it matters for me since i was getting off at the next stop.

It was such a race against time. Raced back home to change and ran to work.

Got there close to 6.

Didn't tell them i missed a stop.....better to leave that in the dark hahaha. I could've made it just on time, most likely, if i didn't miss my stop.

Well at least i finished my book hahaha. It was a good satisfying end.

And it all turned out ok.

After this, i can say that Friday is not my day.

Would have to say i love Tuesdays more still hahaha.

What you all deserve!!

2010-08-17T21:42:00.000+08:00

You people SUCK!!!

I'm disabling the comments.

IN YOUR FACE!!!!

I warned you all, but no you can't understand english.

UPDATE!!!

2010-08-15T17:01:00.002+08:00

Hahaha made you look.

I just felt that i've have really neglected this blog. The guilt is kinda kicking in.

So here i am, trying to make myself feel a bit better and fill up some space with nothing special in particular.

Uni is heading towards the third week. Wth how is it going so quick....dunno if i should be happy or not so happy.

Maybe Time was given a bit of Red Bull.

Other than uni, its work. Nothing special. I'm at the stage where i'm beginning to improve oh so slowly, if any at all. I know the common stuff, basics. But anything extraordinary, different in a minute way...i'm stuck. Makes you feel a bit dumb. I can't properly counsel anything besides cold and flu tablets, antibiotics, a few eye drops and few others. Which is quite sad.

Having a job while still studying is good in that you definitely learn about drugs and counselling, if your pharmacy teaches you. But its also really depressing when you know that you don't know thisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss much (in reality i wouldn't be able to fit how much i don't know but just so you got the point, its a lot).

"You'll learn this all in uni"....but i have to know it now too so i can do something.

Oh, oh i also got my brother's iphone 3G, just yesterday. A "new" phone haha.

Why would he suddenly give it to me. I had my suspicions, and they were 110% correct. He got the new iphone 4. Its a secret from our parents haha. But they'll find out sooner or later, they always do. Like how they did with the itouch, the hard drive and a numerous others.

Part of being the younger one is that you get the old stuff from your older sibling. Not that i mind. But we can't exactly share clothes haha. I know of a friend who has many siblings, 6 of them in total? Bags, school uniforms and whatnot gets handed down, one to another to another...to another, no matter the gender. And it was always quite hilarious. "Why aren't you wearing a jumper when its this freezing?"..."my brother's wearing the jumper".

And last but not least.

For those that like reading FICTION haha.

A Prisoner Of Birth By Jeffrey Archer.

Awesome book.

So until next time.....who knows when. When the guilt kick back in again maybe haha.

P.S.
If your asian and you like to comment on my post/s in chinese.....FORGET IT!!! I DON'T WANT TO READ YOUR COMMENT/RECEIVE THEM IN MY EMAIL. I DON'T WANT TO LOOK AT THOSE PORN SITES. NO ONE DOES. AND IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW....I CAN'T READ FREAKIN' CHINESE. OK MAYBE A BIT. BUT NO I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR ON ABOUT. PLUS NICE COMMENTS DOESN'T GET NICER WITH PORN SITES ATTACHED. YOU WERE WRONG WHEN YOU THOUGHT I MIGHT GO "AWW HOW NICE, A NICE COMMENT WITH NICE PORN SITES, DOES IT GET ANY BETTER!". GO POST SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! OR MAYBEEEEE JUST ENJOY THE SITE/S YOURSELF!!! STOP SPREADING YOUR HOBBY. I THOUGHT THIS MATTER IS PRIVATE AND NOT PUBLIC.

Now...if you got that then THANK YOU! or 谢谢 in case you don't friggin understand.

Having fun?!

2010-07-30T18:50:00.000+08:00

You have definitely succeeded in freaking me out.

How can you tell me i passed on eStudent and then say i failed in an email.....

I hope it was YOUR computer that was wrong, and not eStudent.

Please, please, please, please!!!!

I Hate Curtin.

2010-07-29T18:33:00.000+08:00

Nothing extreme. Just that i don't like waiting for results which should be out by now.

C'mon, tomorrow is oday.

Stupid moles!!!

Its dark, its cold, its....its.......another 4 hours to go.

2010-07-21T14:21:00.000+08:00

Sunday morning was damn depressing.

I had work. It didn't start off too bad.

I was just getting taught how to make my first losec mixture when....wait for it.................a blackout!!!

It was not a exciting moment. The thought "yay its a blackout!!!" couldn't squeeze in. Because what was dominating was the thought of still having to work!!!!

People come in, we can't do much. Can't i just go home......

We don't know the price, don't have the patients history on hand, anything more complicated was definitely impossible. Basically we were disabled. Pretty much a vegetable.

All we could do was give them the medication (with a handwritten label) and tell them when the electricity comes back we'll check if the price is right.Or if they could, maybe come back next time if its not urgent.

There was moments of great disappointment too.

Twice, the electricity came back.

It was definitely a celebratory moment.

*lights comes back on*

"YAY!! electricity!!!!!"

*blacks out again*

"awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"

Luckily though, we weren't locked in. The doors are automatic, so luckily even though it was a cold morning we didn't close it. Thus when the blackout decided to surprise us, we weren't jailed in. But i guess if we were and it was a desperate situation, the multivitamins, lollies, shakes etc would keep us alive.

Assuming there wouldn't be a surprise with the taps as well.

She's not Sherlock Holmes.

2010-07-21T13:58:00.001+08:00

Once upon a time there was an old lady named Edna.

People call her Mrs. Sherlock.

She lived at St. Ives, a lovely retirement village. Not far from there was a small pharmacy.

And in that pharmacy was an innocent girl who worked there.

Every weekday there would be two deliveries to St. Ives for the residents, those who wanted medication, otc, bandages and what not. All they had to do was either ring the pharmacy and tell the lovely people or place your "order" in the box where they collect it (when they go deliver).

So one morning there was a phone call from Mrs. Sherlock. And it was the innocent girl who so happened to answer.

"Good morning, Doves Pharmacy. Its 'innocent girl' speaking."

"Hi, i'm Edna Sherlock from St. Ives."

"Yep"

"I would like to get some difflam for my cough."

*Innocent girl thought to herself, "difflam....difflam doesn't treat coughs...." *

"Oh, um what kinda cough is it? dry? or do you have phlegm?"

"Yes, i have phlegm. And i would just like some difflam, it works to get rid of my cough."

"Oh....um...Mrs. Sherlock, the difflam doesn't really work for chesty coughs. It has anti-inflammatory and/or antiseptic properties, but they wouldn't treat the cough. You might be better off with a chesty cough syrup. It would break down the mucous and help you to cough it up. Blah, blah, blah....."

Mrs. Sherlock was silently listening............or so the girl thought.

"I would just like my difflam please. Thank you."

*Innocent girl thought to herself, "ok, so she's gonna be a difficult customer, fine i'll just sell it, not my problem" *

"Oh, ok. Would you like the lozenges or......."

"beep...beep...beep...beep"

The girl thought to herself, "OMG!! she just hang up on me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is unbelievable!!"

She had to tell her colleagues about the situation, cos she didn't get if it was the difflam lozenges or throat spray in the end. Colleague A empathised and told her that Mrs. Sherlock is like that. A difficult customer.

But they still had to figure out what she wanted. So Colleague A called her up.

Found out that she wanted lozenges......the green ones.

Colleague A then told Colleague B. And apparently normally Mrs. Sherlock doesn't get the green ones.

The innocent girl was thinking to herself, "wtf you stupid old lady!!!!"

So they checked her account. And no doubt about it, she normally gets the YELLOW ones.

Getting a little insider about Mrs. Sherlock from Colleague B.

"She's always complaining....'no one cares about me blah blah blah' "

Innocent girl thinks to herself, "err i wonder why, stupid old lady. Just cos your old doesn't mean if your unreasonable everyone's going to tolerate it and overlook it. Earth revolves around the sun, not you!!".

And so the moral of the story was if they are old and they ask for difflam for a cough. Just give them the bloody difflam. Even more so if she was named Edna Sherlock.

Oh and remember, its the YELLOW ones.

The End.

Curtin is getting lower and lower on the Good list.

2010-07-12T14:08:00.000+08:00

I rush back home, check my emails then intend to study.

I get one from Curtin. Oh how nice, another one about the supp that is tomorrow. Maybe its a gentle reminder.

How wrong am i.....they rescheduled it.

I know i should be happy, yay, more time to study. But arghhhhhhhhhhh i'm so annoyed with it too.

I had to take time off work, change around my times, fit me in etc etc. Now i ring them back and screw up the schedule some more, again. I feel so bad. Luckily they are all nice, easy going. They were ok with anything. Plus i'm just an extra....a small potato hahaha.

Employee problems are annoying, pain in the butt, and i definitely don't want to be one.

The biggest sigh of relief!!

2010-07-08T21:54:00.000+08:00

Tremendously, immensely, greatly relieved.

What i thought to be a immediate fail was granted with a supp. Yay!!!

Ok its weird to be happy, but i am. I mean at least if i pass this i don't have to repeat it again next year. Look on the bright side!

Those of you who didn't receive any emails...just to tell you guys don't worry about anything. You guys not only study more than me, you guys work harder. If i got a supp....don't tell me you think you failed. Cos i will seriously get pissed. You would be equivalent to those people that get 99.9% and is depressed. "i did so bad!", "i didn't get 100%". Its good to have high standards, but seriously its not that great when you cross the line. And its normal to worry, but not when obviously i'm in a worse situation than you.

So now that i get my second chance....for some absurd reason i'm kinda excited....hahaha. I will just have to juggle the study with work.

Now the only problem is how to break it to the rents.....good that they don't have heart problems.

Freebies!!!

2010-07-07T17:51:00.000+08:00

Everyone loves freebies. I love freebies.

Assuming its good and usable...not some free pamphlets or some free cards. Stuff like pens, shirts, samples, notebooks and so on.

iNova is topping my favourites list.

We got free pens and shirts! All of good quality for freebies. Its like yay an extra shirt for work hahaha.

No.

2010-07-07T17:41:00.000+08:00

As soon as i come back home i turn on my computer.

Log on to Oasis.

Crap 1 new email.

Lets see which one it is........

"Are you interested in the learning and networking opportunities at Rural, Remote and Indigenous Health Conferences?"

=.="""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

I swear they do this on purpose with the aim to shorten their students lives.

I'm sorry Joyce Thomas...but let's do that another day!

Break......not!!

2010-06-29T14:34:00.000+08:00

I'm starting my 500 hours. Which mean i'm starting my 3 weeks full time!!

Beginning next monday. 5th July. And i'm working with the boss???

"see you on monday" he said....kinda nervous, first time i would be working with him....

Guess all the plans to plan more outings just kinda got cut :/

Aww in a way i look forward to working, but then i want to go out too!!!!!

*sniff* karaoke.....movies.....outings...whatever!!!

But its 3 weeks...so if i count.....i may be able to get the last week before uni starts to go out. I hope.

Smiggles...i can walk there all day.

2010-06-29T14:20:00.000+08:00

Ok, maybe not. Since the shop isn't THAT big...but i could spend a few hours there....looking at each and every stationery/gadget and whatnots.

They have some awesome designs. Like the "Hub Heart"...a device which allows two people to listen to one mp3 player, an extra earphone hole. So now you don't have to share earphones...don't have to get weird feelings in one ear. But then you lose close proximity and the laughs....like if you move and pull out the others earphones :/ Never a win-win is it hahaha.

They have a new design for the multi usb ports i bought (though my turtle-looking one is still the cutest), stapler (its quite cute...rounded...called the hishine design? but i still like their old design better). They now sell usb's, key chain clocks, hole punches, toaster shaped electrical sharpener and many more...gee, they were all so cool.

I like those people who thought of these stuff. They are like things that you always thought that should be made, but no one ever made them. Now finally someone decides to make them. And i wish i could buy them.I would so swap all my old stationery for smiggles.

The only one.....ok maybe one out of two.

2010-06-25T21:54:00.001+08:00

First post in ages. To be exact since 01/06/10.

First post about exams....for this year haha.

First post to not rant and rave about exams.

They were hard.

In fact, why is it hard. Something that popped into my mind today just as i was going to work haha.

Hard and easy.

Its hard if you don't know the stuff. But its easy if you do.

When you say its going to be hard and someone tries to reassure you..."oh don't worry its easy if you know X and Y and Z". It sure would be IF you knew.

Perspectives.

He could be a murderer but he was a saviour. You get my point.

I could go blaming the damn lecturers for being total moles (not all of them haha). But it was myself in the first place who did not place the effort. So once again i reap what i sow, there was a factor i didn't consider that totally affected my "aim" of being a studious girl (wasn't fully in the picture then....>__<). I haven't changed....at all. I hope i have learnt my lesson (how many times do i have to repeat this hahaha).

It was literally the worst exam period i have ever experienced in all my 19 years of inexperienced life.

Next time......next time i would do it better. Next i would put more effort.

But how many more "next time" in life are there. Its not always sunshine and rainbows. Should just get it done the first time with flying colours so to not think about "next time".........if there was any more.

So no more about this, i will enjoy my break!! But i think i will emo about my results with one post. "Look forward to it!!"

Plus enjoy peoples!! What can your worry do? Yes nothing...hence put that aside and do that later.

Its break! Its freedom time!! Woo~!!

Spitting on the bus door doesn't make it open...

One on top of the other...like a human sandwich...mmm sandwich!!

2010-05-29T13:39:00.000+08:00

Everything is piling up!!! I look at it...stacks and stacks.

Dammit, stop growing, you evil mind washers!!

A very quiet day at work. But i didn't leave empty handed....or should i say empty minded. We went over cold sores plus related vitamins and whatnot, warts, workers compensation, hiring, special orders and so on.

I already learnt that in uni and ~~i know everything that can possibly be known, fire away and test me!!~~ i don't remember much.

I believe its the nth billion, trillion, zillion, gazillion time that i thought....if i studied a bit more i wouldn't have mind blanks and be speechless for answers that i would've known. The rest comes with experience.

"How's it going so far?"

"I'm getting there.....................slowly" >______<""

Fun, fun, fun....back to the brain washing....or should it be planting? I'm so excited!*

*For those who tend to be Slowmo's, note the sarcasm.

Why hello sexy...

2010-05-25T22:56:00.000+08:00

We picked him up. Technically, dad did. I came home, and straight away i went to check him out.

Not bad.....really, really not bad hahaha....

Better than i thought and imagined. Plus he seems quite easy to handle. Though i would still have to test him out one day.

25.05.10 --- The day he was "born". An extra day on the calendar for a little celebration.

Welcome back?

2010-05-22T13:52:00.000+08:00

Its like long time no see....haha the asian way.

Had work today. Its awesome. I'm quite proud of myself. It was only for 2 hours. But it was totally worth every second.

Started off a bit slow, but then one comes in, and another and then there's a line...but it was steady.

I counselled!! I could actually tell people where stuff was. I had ideas of what to recommend, but still confirmed with the pharmacist and get some reassurance (still not that confident hahaha). I actually warned a customer of possible overdosing!! (He was taking codral and panadol....possible paracetamol overdose right)

And guess what. I did my first suspension!! Was very exciting hahaha....ok it wasn't that exciting, just added water. But it was something different.

Its so much better when there IS customers to serve hahaha.

Why am i working on a Saturday. Well one of the pharmacy assistants is a fourth year and during the break he is going to do a rotation in Geraldton. He is so nice, was working with him today. So they need someone to fill in his Sunday shift. And that someone so happened to be me. But i work on Friday nights.....i.e. its dead. So just to get me to familiarise more with everything i am doing extra hours. And i love it. Wish i could do it long term.

The pharmacist on duty is pretty cool too. Apparently he was the pharmacy student of the year 2 years ago! He's quite laid back. At first he seemed a bit....not that friendly....but then when the people started coming in, and me asking questions and everything...he was nice. He's not overly outgoing, a bit quiet, but he is friendly/nice....cool type of person. At least he taught me stuff. Let me do everything my pace. Told me how to counsel, what to say etc.

Something random that happened a while ago.

I was at Hungry Jacks and this intensely overweight man (so he was obese....) comes in......with one of his foot stuck in a bucket. WTH?! right....He went to the toilet, came back out without the bucket. Wonder where the bucket went....He got his meal and headed home, or so i thought. No, he went back to his car, which he had trouble getting into....sat down and ate inside the car. Err.....isn't it more comfortable sitting inside? He looked a bit cramped in there, plus a bit creepy. Looking out of his car window at passerbys, eating his burger.

Another WTH incidence some time ago.

I just got on the train and it was packed. There was one seat available. But no, the guy wouldn't let anyone sit there. He sat on the outside seat and just looked at everyone coming in. Didn't even think if it was polite, or courteous, to move and let someone sit in that vacant spot. Especially when everyone was standing! Everyone that came in stared at him a bit. I did....glared at him from behind hahaha. Trying to make him feel bad...guess he had some kinda brain barrier.

But anyways, at one stop this chick comes on the train. And he had his eyes on her. He stared at her....totally not obvious much! Then after some time he was like "would you like to sit down?".....omg ~~now that's what i call originality~~.....don't know if i should find it funny that he was trying to pick up a girl on a train or be angry that he's such a mole. Obviously she sat down. He was creepy, he kept on staring at her....then look away, then stare....i had a suspicion that he had some problems, cos he didn't seem that normal...his body movements. He also chatted her up, asking her questions. She was nice/polite enough to respond. But what a mole.....its a train, not a club. If your not obese give the seat to someone!

Which reminds me of another time on the bus. Another mole. He sat on the seat, but put his legs up on the other seat. He didn't have any intentions to move his legs when the bus became filled. Not even feeling bad when everyone comes on. Just stare at them....its all fine. ~~We actually like to stand.~~

The world, its inhabitants...never ceases to amaze you.

Stupid Girl.

2010-05-14T22:53:00.000+08:00

Feel so stupid at work. Do stuff wrong, or forget things, don't know things. Always have to bother her, the pharmacist. Can't wait till the 3 weeks. Hope there will be improvement!!

---

Grrr...i knew the sore throat was a bad sign. But at least i can buy hell cheap drugs hahaha.

Please.

2010-05-12T19:06:00.001+08:00

You may have been really busting, BUT please......

Lock/close the door and....
Wash your hands before you leave

That is all. Thank you.

The addition to the Wong family.

2010-05-08T13:41:00.000+08:00

A new family member has just been bought.

Its a blue Honda Jazz.

Dad wanted to buy a second hand car, but after looking at the prices. Might as well buy a new one. According to the rents its going to be the car i will drive. Not that i drive anyways. Plus as if they will let me out driving myself or in fact let me go out.

But anyways we are awaiting its arrival. I don't really know when....it can flash its headlights and surprise me.

Zzzzz....

2010-05-05T15:27:00.000+08:00

And i wake up. The moment where you just woke up and is very blur, especially when your on public transport, "huh? where am i?"

"Next stop Joondalup"

*sudden realization*

Craaaaaaap! Missed my stop. I ended up at Joondalup train station =.="

Back onto the train and this time i don't sleep.

And just when i thought i lost you.

2010-05-03T20:47:00.000+08:00

Hanging the laundry, something flew out.

Oh crap! It was my usb. The one that i was looking for 1 hour ago, thinking i had lost it forever.

Well i was proven wrong, it just went to have an awesome shower, a deep cleanse, amongst its new friends thats currently out drying in the cold night. It came back to mummy, working fine and looking quite handsome.

Don't feel bad!!!

2010-05-03T19:09:00.000+08:00

I really needed that kick in the ass. The push in the back.

So instead i thank you for it ;)

Let's just see how long i will last.....till i need another kick XD

Things that just touch your heart and stays there.

2010-05-01T15:10:00.000+08:00

"To those who are married, .. Not married .. and
soon to be married, I hope you will be touched with this story...

MARRIAGE

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and
said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly.
Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know
what I was thinking. I want a divorce.. I raised the topic calmly.

She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly,
why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the
chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't
talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what
had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory
answer; she had lost my heart to Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just
pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated
that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent
ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for
her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I
had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of
me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a
kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several
weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something
at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell
asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew.

When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not
care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want
anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce.

She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a
life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a
month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken
marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to
recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.

She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of
our bedroom to the front door ever morning.. I thought she was going
crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd
request.

I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions.. . She laughed loudly and
thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to
face the divorce, she said scornfully..

My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was
explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we
both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy
in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to
the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in
my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about
the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside
the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the
office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my
chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I
hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time.. I realized she
was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair
was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I
wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy
returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.

On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was
growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry
her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me
stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few
dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my
dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so
thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her
heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out.
To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an
essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer
and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I
might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms,
walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her
hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly;
it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held
her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I
held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked
intimacy.

I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the
door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked
upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not
want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead.. Do you have
a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I
won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I
didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each
other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on
our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.

Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed
the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.

At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my
wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and
wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I
run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead.

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a
relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the
bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot
give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend
and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a
real happy marriage!

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they
were to success when they gave up."

It was a magic trick.

2010-04-30T21:02:00.001+08:00

I walk into the house.

Next thing that happens.......IT RAINED!!!!

How awesome was that. Was as if it waited for me to go home nice and dry before it decided to pour a bit.

Which now reminds me of when i was a little kid. Yes we all have these moments, "when i was a kid...blah blah blah...".

Anyways, when i was a kid i used to think it was someone up there in the clouds spitting on us. There's always one kid you know that was the weird one...i guess that could've been me hahaha.

Do i care?

2010-04-27T22:45:00.001+08:00

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!!!

In a totally awesome mood. How amazing. Not only did my marks not affect my day, i totally forgot about it till i got home and went blog hopping.

Yes peoples. Be optimistic. No matter how bad you guys think you did...think again. At least you didn't end up like me, i didn't manage to touch half way.

And am i emo about it.....totally not (that was not sarcasm!). I totally seem happy-go-lucky right....well its just that i can't change the past. So might as well work towards the future! Its good to have standards, but once its done, ITS DONE! So face forward and soldier on, on the path so called Life.

To my fellow stalkers/anonymous asian randoms.

2010-04-23T21:38:00.000+08:00

Please don't leave porn sites in my comments!!!!!

I really don't see the point in all that. I'm not interested and i have comment moderation (if your unsure, it means its DELETED).

So get the message!!! If you have all that time posting them around on people's blogs like mine, why don't you go find a better life. Like maybeeeee get a REAL girlfriend. And not those cyber chicks you are trying to show me.

Have a good life. I hope it will improve with my advice!

You reap what you sow.

2010-04-22T23:01:00.000+08:00

How exceedingly true is that right now.

I deserved my mark. Was not really surprised when i saw it, had a feeling it wasn't going to be good anyways. I should have spent more time (what i always say hahaha). But that's over and no use whinging and dwelling upon it now. They do say no point in crying over spilt milk. All i can do now is to do much much much better next time. So here is a post just to put it all away and move on.

Now we wait for another two to come out (and so won't be surprised about them either) and have another two to tackle....

Move on....move on......soldier on.

470ml and about 1.5 hours.

2010-04-20T20:43:00.000+08:00

Yes that is how long it took to donate blood.

10mins to be precise to give 470ml then all the rest for waiting =.="

Only thing is feeling sooooo drowsy. Delayed side-effects.

Plus i had a little scare. The lady that was poking me was the one that i so did not want to poke me...i was looking at her doing this other guy while i was waiting...she didn't get it into the vein, and was twisting and poking around =.=" Then there was the next victim, a girl. The girl was like "errr it hurts, i think it moved when you taped it...". And that's when i was like i soooo don't want her to be poking me. But when does life turn out to be what you want. I got her in the end. And when she poked it she nearly didn't get it into my vein!!!! I was like.....*tense*.......look.....then she got it into the vein. Gee....and she was asking if i'm alright....=.="" Well i would be if you do your job correctly.

Well now that that's over, time to continue the mole.....i mean molecular.

Plus its my 100th post....any celebration?!

....Ok i'm being stupid....i just haven't blogged in ages, too lazy *cough cough....quit laughing Prindess XD

You!! Yeah, you, the one who fell on his down under!!

2010-04-08T19:31:00.001+08:00

Walking back to uni, some asian guy across the road in rollerblades. Skating along on the road...

S.H.E.: "How stupid, on the road! Get crashed into."

Then a car comes and he had to awkwardly get onto the grassy area. Yes he was quite lame. Then he continued and went back onto the road again, as soon as the car went past. He then crossed the road to reach the footpath. Now here comes the hilarious part. But you had to be there to really experience the oh so hilarious-ness of it.

He just got onto the footpath and before you know it, he landed right on his arse. It was breathtaking, well for S.H.E. and D.D. It was funny for me too, but i still felt sorry for him. It looked like it hell hurted hahaha. He got up again and was like stroking his arse. Well it didn't get to him. He awkwardly continued rolling on back home? Not that he could've taken them off anyways hahaha.

Didn't seem like he was pro at it, so why did he do that....some weird asians hahahaha.

Plus we saw horsey's!!!!!!!! Cute, big horsey's....with policemen on them. Rarely see them. But who cares....horsey's!! Hahahaha.

I lost 10 years of my life.

2010-04-06T13:25:00.001+08:00

9AM in the morning...

"Hello..." <<

"Hi its Jo-Anne, how are you?"

"Oh! Hi, i'm good.." <<

"Just asking if you can come in to work tonight?"

"Yeah sure!"

"Ok that's good, come in 4-4:30."

"Ok, i'll come in at 4."

"Bye"

"Bye"

Back to sleep.

Wakes up, day starts at 11...AGAIN.

La-di-da.....time goes by.

5PM....at the restaurant.

Thinking to myself, "there's something important i'm forgetting.....".

But keeps on working.

Looks at the clock 5:40PM.....and it comes crashing down, slowly yet with a X10000000000 destructive force.

"OH S.H.I.T.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!", is what i was thinking.

Yes, i totally forgot about my other job. The one i promised to be at 4, this morning. How could i have forgotten~!!!!!!!

Argh i'm so pissed. But instead of being pissed, what the hell should i be doing now?!!!!!!!!

Told my mum (i know, i forgot so i didn't tell my parents). And i don't have my mobile with me. How great! Can't even call them. Man they must be so pissed T____T

Hell worried, stressed, pissed, nervous.

"omg, omg, omg, omg, omg, omg, omg. omg, omg..." <<< the inside of my head.

Oh wait.....feels my pocket. MY MOBILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did bring it, normally i don't.

Oh crap, they've been calling....Ugh they are calling right this moment. I just stared at it.

"What should i say, omg, omg, omg, omg...."

I get a few texts. From Jo-Anne.......*gulp*.

Opens one.

"I've been eating this chocolate bunny, its actually better than what i thought it was."

Huh??!!!!!!!!

What is she on? Doesn't she want to eat me, skin me alive....why is she talking about chocolate bunny's????

Crap, she's calling again....T____T

Ignored it, again.

My mum comes out, "I'll call them for you and tell them what's happened."

"My saviour has just dropped down from heaven!!!"....or more realistically just walked out of the restaurant and is my mum.

I gave her the mobile, tell her which number. Leaves it all to her, and walks back inside the restaurant. I wanna hide, run away. I feel so guilty, irresponsible. I feel like a big, fat, ugly mole....

Mum comes back in, gives me the mobile. Nothing was said, and nothing was asked. I left it there. And we just went back to work.

But i was thinking, tomorrow i must go and apologise profusely.

And that's the story of how i lost 10 years of my life.

Its a true story.

Everything before la-di-da is 100% true, and everything after that....was a nightmare.

Well those that were ~~smart~~ observant may have noticed it. It was so traumatising. I woke up and was like....OMG!!! What's the time, what day is it?? My heart beating fast, i'm wide-eyed, panicking. Then calmed down, and realised it was a dream.....and went back to bed. Hahahaha....

I remember other bits too, but it would've been a dead give away that it was a dream.

So here's the deleted scenes:

Before i went to the restaurant, Prindess was telling me i should so see the new look. We apparently renovated and its completely changed. So i was excited to see the difference. Not that i remember there was anything different :/
When i checked the clock, i was thinking, "Today's tuesday, its 5:40....hmmmm tuesday, i have to work at pharmacy at 4PM......wait....tuesday, today, at 4PM......OMG....its 5:40PM!!!!!!!"
When i was checking my mobile, there was 6 missed called and 2 texts. All of a sudden there was 9 missed calls in an instant. And the text, i didn't exactly remember the contents. It was just something ridiculous, total contrast to the situation. Random texts.
I went back into the restaurant, and was called by a customer. He apparently had opened our cupboards, and was telling me chuck out the boxes that we had stored there. And that's exactly what i did. He gave me the boxes, and i chucked them out, no questions whatsoever. But what the heck, don't go snooping around our cupboards!!! is what i'm thinking now hahaha...
I was imagining myself apologising profusely like an asian. Bowing and saying "sorry" over and over again.

It was actually quite realistic though. Hope its not a premonition hahahaha.

It IS a Love Song

2010-04-05T15:49:00.000+08:00

Its a sexy song by Rain. I lol every time i see the body waves and his signature move...but still its a real nice song. Quite sad actually.

Enjoy~!

The life of a growing girl.

2010-04-04T22:30:00.002+08:00

"I'm really full."

*Heads to the cupboard. Have some cookies...omnomnomnomnomnom....

"Friendship is like wetting your pants, everyone can see it but only you can feel its warmth."

Hahahaha....

From S.H.E. :

"Speeding kills not only people, but also relationships."

...i think it was like that. But i like it :)

Money, money, money...in a rich man's world.

2010-03-31T21:05:00.000+08:00

I just opened my red packets that i got for my birthday.

So it wasn't $100. It was $200! Yeah Prince, its $100 more.

2010-03-30T00:36:00.002+08:00

Up and down, round and round, like the merry-go-around.

"She wi-ll beeeee loved"

2010-03-26T22:05:00.000+08:00

Hahaha, go Maroon5. Sums up my day.

I feel so loved! I think i have laughed sooo much today, not that i don't always. The cards, the "surprise", everyone, and the lovely presents. Oh and how can i forget. Prindess, from 1 it has exponentially increased to 6 in ONE DAY!!! I'm very shocked. Its so going to pop out one day.....my poor future. And it was very funny, Tro was very slow, turtlefish as always hahaha. If you are still lost to what i'm saying....BEEP!! And so cute today XD

I shall confess my feelings right now. ....*deep breath...inhale...*

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE FOR THE PRESENTS AND THE WISHES!!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!! <3<3<3

I'm so tired that i will try to have an early night tonight.

ILY! Just like a virus.

2010-03-25T21:47:00.000+08:00

Yes i do. Kirsten is so awesome. Wish i worked on Thursdays....not saying that Claire is bad or anything, but i just thing i'm more comfortable with Kirsten. And the real good thing was that Kirsten taught me things about drugs!!! It was so good. I was kinda craving for some learning. I do feel stupid and useless not knowing anything. Plus Kirsten is so bubbly, and cheery. Just very cool. I did mention she was asian, and short in a previous post. She was telling she is very strict, but so far i love her. And strict is not bad, its good if you really want to learn.

But after all that and some other stuff which includes something received (omg i love it!! *wink wink), i come back home and i'm pissed right now. Somehow i've gotten an infection on my usb =.=" I don't know when or how. But I can think of a few ways to how i got it.

I lent it to Chin How twice
I used it in printer fuel
I used it on the library's computers

I somehow don't think it would be from 2 & 3. Ok lets be honest, i'm actually suspicious of Chin How. But i'm not sure, and yeah its already infected so no point trying to find how i got it. I just want to get rid of it!!!!!!!!!!! I've formatted, scanned. But what the hell, it keeps coming back. Just like a virus. Excuse the analogy there.

Just GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

Am i dreaming? Pinch Owwwwww......guess not

2010-03-24T19:57:00.000+08:00

I was insanely happy when i found out....

Hope everything is actually leading somewhere. The one i dare not to think of in case reality slaps me in the face.

I'm so worried about Tro.... :'(

Been a while, more than a week, that she's been sick. I advised her to go see doctor, but she's too lazy =.=" Well she did get better, but now its coming back. And maybe coming back worse. T___T

I hope/wish/pray that its just something small.

Hot and sweaty, and lost inside of you.

2010-03-23T19:45:00.001+08:00

It was suppose to be cold, windy, winter-y weather. But no, once again, it was so hot. I sweated heaps, and started to smell (hope it wasn't bad 0_o).

We enjoyed listening to the melody of the guitar, sang a bit, attempted to study....ok didn't do any, besides from the oh so studious one. Trekked for food and dessert. And just enjoyed the rest of the day in the outback. With the trees, the wind, the sun, and the odd peoples coming and going. Hahahaha

Yes, i know. I was totally oblivious to everything else. It was memorable fun...teasing, lots of laughs, heart2heart, and a dash of mutual silence. There were so many times where i just wanted to add something or tell you. Maybe hint. Of course that was all my imagination.

One day.....

I was all wet and high!! Such a pleasurable experience.

2010-03-22T20:42:00.004+08:00

Hahaha all the connotations to that....you dirty peoples!!!

It was JUST a big bad thunderstorm with a drizzle of good hail and cool flashes of lightning. Plus as a bonus i get a leaky-ish house and a dented car!!

But it was actually quite exciting. As Tro later mentioned, when its rainy weather for some reason people seem more high....i wonder?? It was fun though, waiting for the rain to calm down. We entertained ourselves. "Jangaroo" and "Dibatang" HAHAHAHAHA!!!....Pouches, eating trees, piggybacks, the zoo, etc etc, you get the picture hahaha.

The trip back home was kinda bad. Not only did it take ~1hour to get to Esplanade, i was bloody hungry, tired, wet, cold....and my batteries for my help line (ie my mobile) was running out (this always happens when there is something wrong happening!) :'(

Outside St Mark's school there was a friggin massive pool, literally it was a mini pool...and the lights are out on the streets. Heaps of people waiting for Mcdonalds at the drive-thru...was funny. But such bad weather....like in all my ~19 years of life i've never experienced this such bad weather...quite fascinating hahaha. And still we actually have it better here in Perth compared to other countries, so woo-hoo we survived a possible Perth crisis?! And how hilarious was Kate while we were still trying to get to Esplanade, "we're all gonna die!!". To add to it, everyone was quite emo on the train, as always i try to liven things up. And i wish i had a camera...the sky looked pretty awesome. Guess i'll never see that again....

And something quite interesting. My mum apparently read on the chinese newspaper not long ago that in a country it had rained fish. Yes literally the things that swim, have gills, and is a name for Prindess. F.I.S.H. I thought we only see that in movies...guess not. Plus the bad weather in the pretty normal, boring Perth...."Raining fish + disaster in Perth = *drum roll + eerie music* the end of the world?????!!!!" Hahahaha

So i finally got home ~1.5 hours later than normal. I guess the good thing today is that we missed a lecture and i have electricity...hahaha suckersssssssssss!!

True or False....uhhh, is there a Tralse??

"People that are meant to be together, always find their way in the end."

"6 billion in the world, 6 billion souls, and sometimes all you need is one."

Ok so at first when i read these i'm like thinking "that's soooo true", but then i don't really have any basis on that. Its just something that you wish would be true. But in reality, it never seems to be that way.

So i may be being a bit pessimistic here but you have to admit its like a 1 in 6 billion chance. If we were all that lucky, everyone would be rich, everyone would be happy. It would be a dream world, where the word unhappiness was unheard of. I'm sure we would all know at least one couple who seemed like the most perfect couple alive. They were always together, so happy in their own world, you just envy them. But when you hear/see them again a couple of years later they have broken up. Its like omg....what went wrong.

It may be so much easier in life if everything went smoothly. But then you would lose the sense of treasuring the moments after, when you have finally attained/accomplished the things most important to you. Sometimes its real easy to lose your sense of direction, at those times remember. Remember why you were trying so hard in the first place and find your path again.

To see the unseen

When you're looking back

all you see is scars

and everything in front is ugly,

then at this moment look up and realize that

the world can still be beautiful.

How so not hilarious! But it comes in a package with life.

2010-03-20T12:11:00.000+08:00

I opened my eyes....its kinda bright outside. Peek at my alarm clock ~6:40am....oh yeah thats ok. Then something hit me...OH S.H.I.T.!!!! I'M LATE!!!!!!

My sympathetic nervous system went into action, i jumped out of the bed and was thinking how would i tell my dad. I paused. Then after some calmer thinking.....

OH WAIT, ITS SATURDAAAAYYY!!! =.="

So of course i climbed back into bed, took a while for my heart to get some peace, and my lungs a rest. But in the end i slept like a pig...till 11:00 when my mum woke me up hahaha.

Wishes for this year....and for once i can actually think of something to wish for.

Family-related, mum and dad.
Family-related, brother.
Dedicated to Uni
Its a secret...

If i feed my wishes time, i hope they may come true one day and not stay as wishful thinking.

Why bother have a title...."insert title here"

2010-03-19T21:26:00.002+08:00

It was the beginning, it was exciting....but it wore off. Its becoming a tiresome, boring, and not so exciting. That sums up uni. But surprise, surprise, you do get some fun sometimes. If only that happened more. The only thing keeping me coming to all these lectures is of course *beep* (insert codename, Prindess). I basically have a nice doze in most of them, even though we are right up the very very front. I do nod!! hahaha The lecturers stare at me, but i can't help it. I try to listen to what my brain tells me...maybe i should listen more to what they tell me.

Good news too. I got my payslip today!!!

I'm getting $12.48/hour, and so far i've made $99.84. How nice! I was paid on my ~~very first day~~ correction, the second day. Well its reasonable since i knew nothing. And i still kinda don't know much, but thaaatttsssss ok!! :)

Woah! I can't believe you just said that. Yes i believe i just said that. ...i still can't believe you said that.

Life is always changing, for the better or for the worse. Everything around you changes. Not one doubt about it. In a split second, everything is different to when it was before. Am i changing? I suppose i am.

There are moments in your life (definitely) where you said something that totally changed everything. Think before you talk is what people says, but when do i ever. Once its out, its out. You can't say you don't mean it, cos you still said it. You can't brush it off and say its a joke, you still did it.

I've thought of nearly every possible situation. Imagined different pathways. Ones that are possible and ones that would most likely be impossible, with the hope that one day it will be possible. Weighing each of them, one side of course would be heavier than the other. I seem pretty pessimistic.I should look on the bright side, but still there is doubt. What i want and what i do is completely different, in this case that is.

Its so true that the more you think about something, the more you worry about the little things and notice them more. To the extent that your basically halfway on the path to being nuts. I shouldn't think about it anymore....but when do i ever listen to myself? Exactly. Never.

Boom boom gotta get get.......CRAWLING IN MY SKIN!!!!!!!

2010-03-16T19:49:00.000+08:00

It was an EPIC day! Ok not so exaggerated, but it was totally fun.

Hanged out with SHE, Prince and Dib at city. We went to eat korean food, then went to shops to find Dib's brother a present. And alas we arrived at Target and found a close to half-price off digital photo frame. It also had the clock and a calendar. Was such a bargain. I saw so many cute things whilst walking...and the boys were just like *roll eyes* and ignore =.=" But they were cute!! Like the bunny cushion, bunny ears, the teddy bear, the cute baby who yawned...and so on hahahaha.

Went to Utopia as our last stop for some good old bubble tea. My next flavour to go for is mango, it was surprisingly very very good, kudos to Prince. Then after some time we finally decided for 1hr of karaoke. And of course Prince would rather head to Borders, so we left him to go to his beloved Borders hahahaha.

Something everyone should know: Dib can sing, and i think he loves to sing too!! It was so hilarious, and mega fun. I can say that they can sing!! (SHE and Dib that is....exclude me, i need some training) 1hr was totally not enough!!! That's what i was left thinking when we were leaving....

But i just have to repeat myself....IT WAS FUUUUUNNNNN!!!! I should've studied...but as they say "study hard, play hard" hahahahaha.

OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!

2010-03-15T20:48:00.000+08:00

I can't stop thinking about you. I always want to see you. I'm excited to see you. You have such a cute smile. I'm extremely happy with you. I want to talk to you. I want to know everything about you. I'm obsessed about YOU!!

....i'm sure Prindess is excited about this. Sorry to pop your balloon. Its actually about you hahahahahaha!!!! You can guess who is your love partner...it starts with a H (oh wait there are so many with H's!!!). So hilarious, never get enough fun and laughter from your love life.

But on another note....ok i know i'm meant to be Cupid, but i'm still learning here ie an apprentice hehehe. Can it still be like/love even though you don't die of a fibrillating heart?? If everything above is included. My thinking is that love can come in many shapes, sizes, and of course feelings.....so i would assume if you are experiencing that, then i guess you may actually like the person....?? Want to answer this, my Oh so experienced in love Prindess. I'm so not a love expert.....i may need to retire soon....maybe just until Prindess marries HAHAHA!

Time and time again

All that really belongs to us is time; even he who has nothing else has that.

Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

Time is a cruel thief to rob us of our former selves. We lose as much to life as we do to death.

Nothing is as far away as one minute ago.

We must use time as a tool, not as a crutch.

There is never enough time, unless you're serving it.

If we take care of the moments, the years will take care of themselves.

Regret for wasted time is more wasted time.

So little time, and so little to do.

A single day is enough to make us a little larger.

The whole life of a man is but a point of time, let us enjoy it.

What may be done at any time will be done at no time.

People find life entirely too time-consuming.

...how disjointedly time seemed to flow, passing in a blur at times, with single images standing out more clearly than others. And then, at other times, every second was significant, etched in my mind.

Time present and time past are both perhaps present in time future and time future contained in time past. If all time is eternally present all time is unredeemable.

Time is the most valuable thing a man can spend.

Half of our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.

When i thought we got closer, it went back to square one. But something has changed. For the better? I hope.
