Welcome to my new blog

Firstly this is my new blog site and my Myspace blog will now be inactive. And if you're a new reader of mine, I have been a blogger for quite a few years now. My first blog was with MSN spaces, then Myspace and now I am officially using a proper blogsite. So yeah.
I am finally blogging again atleast. But I'm not quite sure if anyone actually reads blogs anymore because everyone is always busy and stuff. But I guess blogging for me is to destress and of course, a place for my memories. So even if my readers aren't reading my blogs anymore, that's ok because it's more for me. And also for me to share. So yeah. Again, hello and welcome to my new blog.

I've been meaning to write a blog for ages now. So much has happened in the past few months, that I just wanted to write down in my previous blog but I cbf logging into Myspace because who uses Myspace nowadays anyway. It's all about FACEBOOK now. I guess I do prefer Facebook because it's more fresher and of course networking on it is much easier and better. Everyone uses Facebook so people who I don't usually talk to or I know are all there.

So you're all wondering where I thought of the name for my blog. Well I wanted something reflective for my blog. Using my real name or initials was plain and boring. So I thought I'd do the whole Use a cool Japanese name in my URL. I decided on Hime, because some of my friends refer to me as Hime or Princess, usually through IM, text etc. Or if you're like Murphy he actually calls me Hime. So yeah. Memoir's of Hime. Sounds like Memoirs of a Geisha but yeah. My idea derived from that anyway.
Another reason for wanted to blog is because I finally got my own laptop. Meaning, I have more reason to be blogging in my spare time. It feels more personalized if you know what I mean.

Anywho moving on.
Just for those who don't usually tune into my entries. I tend to blab on a lot of my daily life in detail. And surprisingly that's what attracts my readers. Or atleast I think that's why they tune in. Or just to listen to me bitch, which I tend to do quite often. Ahhh, I know. It's not good. But it's good venting and stuff.

I don't actually know where to start with my blog. Ok, let's talk about my laptop. I recently bought a Sony Vaio CS series in Red. It's so sexy and customized, you know. It's so ME! I feel so materialistic buying such things in red though. (Ipod, Phone, Camera and now Laptop) So anywho, where the hell did I come up with this money. Well, my parents recently came home from Vietnam because of my grandma's recent passing and my aunty (Dad's older sister) decided to be ultimately generous and gave me $2000 USD. Thank God to Australia's economy crisis, I ended up exchanging it for nearly $3000 AUD. I gave my siblings money because it was Jan/Feb and it was their birthdays. I still had more than enough left over. After weeks of searching, I stood firm with my initial choice and finally got the laptop I wanted. I got it for cheap too. $1650, marked down from $2199. So I'm super happy about my new laptop.

My life. Let's see. Well I went through a phase where I'm losing faith in everything. Religion especially. My parents went away because my grandma was ill so they had to rush off to Vietnam really quick. My grandma ended up passing away. But the thing that got to me was that my grandma was a person who devoted so much in her life especially to religion, yet she can die in such a painful way. And then another thing came up with my mum. I just got really upset how mum can remain so strong through all this and hold onto her faith. When I am so angry about all this. And the person I want there for me the most isn't there. However, I am forever greatful that I have the best group of friends as well who are there to support me through all this. The break ups, the deaths, the sickness etc. I love you girls/guys for that. I'll do a tribute to you soon.

But yeah, with all that life is great. I tried to look at all of this optimistically. Because of what one of my friend's said to me. I mean if you think about it, my life is great and it's just some small parts of my life that I have to deal with. So the best thing is to stay happy.

Another contribution to my happiness. Well not this bit but starting uni tomorrow. Something to look forward to but I'm super nervous. Aren't we all? But still ><>

Anywho I cannot be bothered writing anymore.
So I'm off.
Enjoy the first blog.
xoxo
