I guess birthday wasn't all bad. I actually got out of the house and went out for dinner. Pretty call restaurant because it was all you can eat. And very awesome atmosphere. We ate for an hour straight. And then ate some cake. Not a bad night. Only fail about the day was the shoes I wanted to buy ended up to be about 6-7inches high. GG, did not buy them.
Next day had dinner with the family. Pretty good night as well. Felt good because it just felt like another family dinner outing rather than let's celebrate Helen's birthday. We ate at Plume. I love eating Peking Duck. So delicious :):) Went home and watched Harry Potter. Great anticipation for the 6th movie, which I watched at IMAX. It was kinda shitty because the 3D effects only lasted about 15 minutes into the film, then the rest of the film wasn't in 3D. But it was a pretty good film, despite what people say. I still thought it was good. Only shitty thing again was that I left my beret back in the theatre :(:( Oh Gosh, was so God damn shattered. I was planning on buying the same one again, if they have it in stock! Would suck really bad if they didn't have it. But what are the odds of it still being there ><
Anywho, I kinda miss being a kid and just going IMAX. I feel like doing that for all the movies I want to watch now. And I really wanna go Museum, this time with a camera. Hahaha. I love going to these places. Walking along Carlton Gardens was nice too :):)
Hrmph, Charity Ball is next week. I changed my mind again and decided that I'm not gonna buy anything else for it. I'm just gonna wear shoes that I've already got at home, clutch at home and all set. Except accessories. Maybe I'd fork out some cash for that BUT that should be about it. It's just ONE night, right?! :) It's not like it's my Highschool formal or anything. I feel like a stingy ass even though my siblings gave me money for my birthday!
Had a really gay day today. My plans of going to replace my beret failed. Didn't end up going hp because I woke up late. Went Footscray instead because I had to pick up my glasses. Didn't end up getting them because the stupid Optometry place was renovating and just moved to a new place and they were just unpacking everything. -_-" I went Forges and took ages to find some SEAM-FREE underwear. No, I do not want Granny panties, nor do I want G-strings. Just normal underwear that has no seams. Took me forever to find a pair, that I do not even know if it's seam free. --" I was unaware of the time. Didn't get a chance to buy myself a fob roll. But managed to get myself a BubbleCup. Missed my train. Was late to school. Oh and might I add I got picked up on the train. o.O
Guy with iPhone writes note on his phone: "Can you plz stop listening to ur music so loud... (ME: WTF, RUDE MUCH?) ... and can you plz tell me ur name?"
*taps me on the leg*
Me: What?! *passes phone back*
Guy: *passes phone back to me again with same msg*
Me: Urgh, no.
Guy: So that's a no?
Me: Yeah, no thanks?? *blushes*
Ahhh so awkward. ROFL.
Anywho enough from me

Materialistic
Other than Winter school, my days are slot with spending time with the girls and of course SHOPPING, whether it is shopping shopping, window shopping, online window shopping etc etc etc. I am constantly shopping and lusting after materials I simply cannot afford.
Ahh, been such an emo over the past couple of days. Some people really look forward to their birthdays, while I just don't want to at all. Don't really want to make a big deal out of it. This sounds so selfish but mother ended up getting a cake catered for me. And I told her I didn't want it because it cost so much and I rather get something else. I feel so bad now because she cancelled the catering and she was only doing it because she cared. But yeah, everyone's been going on and on about doing something small, but I was something smaller that small, which is nothing at all. Only thing is my birthday is on a Friday which makes it hard to get out of saying anything. Oh well, just letting everyone know in advance that I'll be in hiding all weekend :)
Anyway, in the light of birthdays, I spoilt myself with a new handbag. However that has set me back quite a fair bit. I still want that other bag and items for the charity ball like a clutch, black gladiator heels and some accessories. I'm so annoyed for getting a white dress now. I wish I bought the black one instead, but nooooo sales assistant and sister insisted I get the white one. -_-" And I really need a new wardrobe. Damn it!
So yesterday, I went yum cha with some of the girls. Me, Belinda, Catherine, Helen, Karren and Van. It was all you can eat, so pretty worth the value that we played. $16.80pp. After we went shopping and Van left us for class, Cat went Karaoke and we were joined by Vi. Shop shop shop. Went home and yeah, forgot what I did. Oh and I got a new phone recently. Nokia E71, which I'm quite shattered about because it did not come in Black and Red. Probably not released in Australia but yeah. Suckssss
Ahh cbf blogging now.

My favourite websites this week has to be: Sportsgirl.com.au (mainly for forums) and LOOKBOOK.nu. Great for fashion inspiration!

Let's count my fortune
Sarcasm right there!
I'd rather say, let's count the number of misfortunes that I've so far encountered over these 7 months of 2009. You know it's kinda funny how we always focus on the bad things in life when the good things are still always there.
From the beginning of the year, there has just been a number of things that I have faced and now I just wanna give up and don't wanna face anything anymore. We can't always have the good things in life but I don't want anymore turmoil! With all this bitching about the bad stuff, I tend to take the good things in life for granted. Good things do happen to me and sometimes I just feel like a spoilt brat when things don't go my way. Say, I want a laptop. I got the laptop. I want this and that, I get it. I guess I am really selfish. Material things can't keep me happy for long. The number of times I went shopping this year just to make me happy.
I guess 2009 is just a turning point for me. God throws everything out in the open for me to fight and accomplish. I guess I don't wanna do this anymore. Every time I come to anything religious, it's like I don't want to believe anymore. I guess I pray for the wrong things because they're never gonna come true anyway. As much as people say "have faith," what's there to have faith for. It's not like we can turn back the clocks and relive everything. Remake everything that didn't work so everything would be ok. Life just doesn't work that way.
See how I always complain about the bad things in life when there are good things as well. Like how nice Vi's BBQ gathering was. And it's good to see everyone planning stuff for the girls to get together. But now it's just jammed altogether. So I decided that I don't wanna do a birthday dinner anymore because everyone's just organising stuff and it's not like that could afford another outing. So yeah just stuff it. Probably the reasons why I never make a birthday is because there are always other things before my birthday seeing as it's holidays and I have that fear of noone turning up. LOL. But yeah I guess that again is just one of my security things. I just push all that into putting up a happy face and make the most of everything I have. Ahhh, so good at being fake.
And then there's other things in my life like my dad's ongoing illness. It's kinda scary studying Psychology, only to find that some symptoms described in my text book is symptoms that my dad shows. It's so difficult living with him. But then again he's been like this for a few years. I guess I just want that freedom of not having to look after someone who's disabled :( Wish life could be much different.
Anyway just gotta focus on all the positives in life. Even if I have to put on a fake smile :)
Good night.

Tired Of Waiting
Yesterday, I spent pretty much a 1/3 of my day WAITING!
So I had a job interview at Pancake Parlour, which started at 2pm. I think the whole interviewing process was a bit distorted for a renowned business. If they have set everyone an individual interview time, maybe that wouldn't have been a problem. Anyway, there were heaps of applicants and we were all seated. Filled out application forms and completed an aptitude test. We were then interviewed one by one, then if you were "successful" you were asked to stay where you were and waited for the next thing. I was lucky enough to stay for the next interviewer, so he can debrief me on the wages etc. But only problem was I couldn't attend the training session on Wednesday because of school. So yeah. That took about over 2hrs in total. A lot of the time was just sitting and staring at the Big Clock in PP. There were a lot of flaws I had to pick out of PP. Mainly the 3am finish on some days, where they would expect us to do a "one off" shift atleast once in awhile. That I was a bit iffy about and hesistant to say ok. But I was lucky to stay behind, in which it took me awhile to decide that I didn't really want the job afterall. So I left PP, glad that I did not get a trial shift.
After PP interview, I had to go to Medicare to apply for my own card. If you ever walk past Medicare you would see the MASS number of people queueing up. Lucky, it took about 10-20 mins wait. I window shopped for a bit before mum called so I had to meet her in Footscray. Walking to the tram stop with no umbrella, while it was spitting then waiting for the tram itself. Reaching my destination, I walked again in the cold to the Optometrist where I met up with mother. Went to get KFC for dinner, where I bumped into my mate. Sad to hear, that his friends were getting together that night for a drink up ... and to smoke up some weed. SIGH.
Anyway, more tireless waiting when I got home, I waited for Murphy to pick me up because everyone was heading out for Belinda's birthday :):) It was still early, so Shirl and I kicked back at Murph's. We jenga'd, music'd, photowhore'd, vain'd up Murph and then headed to Peter's because that was the meeting point. It was great to see most of the girls there (Kim, Helen and Donna). And most the guys. Anywho more WAITING at Peter's, as we waited for the birthday girl. Finally, we headed off to the city for some fun at Seven. The queue was major long since we arrived. We ended up queueing for over 2 hrs, and still no where near the entrance. Most of us had to be home early, so we ended up leaving. Felt bad because it was most of the girls and we were supposed to be partying with Belinda :(:( So after 2 hrs of queueing, we wanted to do something that wouldn't waste our night. So we all went to eat Kebabs. The kebab was so DAMN delicious :P Hrmm, took awhile to get home too. I should've went home with the others because the lived in my area. But I ended up staying in Murphy's car, where we had to take Van, Tony and Shirley home. And the all live in WOOP WOOP! -_-"
So yeah, more waiting as I was trying to fall asleep. I ended up sleeping some time after 4am. I do not know why I laid there for 2 hrs, pondering about God knows what. But such a waste of sleeping time. I feel like I'm gonna be an insomniac soon.
I guess the whole night wasn't all fail. For starters, I pushed my curfew way above the limits. And mum didn't really say anything about it. As for Dad, he says I am never doing that again. But my brother stuck up for me and said that I'm the brains in the family, so I deserve the relaxation.
My brother was Oh so cool yesterday. He put the whole OLDER brother act of becareful of perverted guys in the clubs, any sign of trouble call him, don't accept drinks from randoms, don't get in a car if your friend has been drinking AND "yeah here's $50 to buy you and your friends some drinks." Far now THAT was the waste of the night. $50 for booze and I did not even have a drop of alcohol in me :(:(
Probably the best thing was catching up with most of the girls, whom I haven't seen in awhile. Felt really good. Murphy said that "It's like we've just met each other" or something like that. But yeah don't blame us. Now, we just need more proper quality time with each other. Lucky Vi organised a BBQ this week and most the girls are going anyway, so that should be good.
One last thing. There was a discussion about the WOW factor!
So according to the Murphy, the person you meet and have an immediate WOW response, is THE ONE!
But Steven brought up that WHAT IF, the person is 500kgs, lost a limb, blind ya di ya di ya, would he/she still be the one?
Well to Murph, if it's still a WOW, then it's a WOW. Still the one.
But to his friends... we would be like WOHHHHH!
Lol, it was one of things that you gotta be there for. Hilarious :)
Anyway enjoy
xoxo
Oh forgot to mention. My exam results came out. I am please to say that I did pretty good :) Very happy with the results because I thought I was gonna fail and I did much better than I expected. So yahh

Monday night bored-ism
Holidays are hereeeeee and I'm actually spending two days of it at school, studying Design and Measurement. Argh, I am such an idiot. From yesterday I've been dreading going back to school because I barely had my holidays (4 days since exams finished). So I'm back to good ol school. I kinda regret picking up a subject to do over the holidays because my convenor just totally overestimated to complexity of it all. Lawl.
Anywho, today was my first day of Winter school. It was quite boring actually. My day started off with train ride to the city. Ran to officeworks for some new stationary. Then off to school. Subway for lunch. Then the beginning of my lecture. I wanted to fall asleep so bad. Then school ended with a tute, where I was supposed to be paying attention. But instead, I was facebooking, job hunting etc etc. Kinda sad. There was about 4 of us sitting at the back all doing the same thing. Just eating, drinking and doing random stuff. Oh the cool thing was the whole lab was filled with Mac computers. The screens were ginormousss, but then again I'm not a huge fan of Mac/Apple.
All in all, my exams weren't all that bad. But next semester, I should really get good study habits and study throughout the semester, not do the necessary work and then leave cramming for swot vac. All I want is a Pass and I would be all good.
After exams, I met up with Shirley and we went roaming again. This time was Crown roaming. We had lunch at "the Pub." Here's another critique of mine. Average restaurant with average food. 4 stars on great atmosphere and design. Lovely place to design. After lunch, Shirl and I went into the gaming rooms. We put a dollar each in the pokies machine. I honestly don't find the joy in gambling -_-" We were getting tired from all the button pushing from just $1. We roamed again looking for a bar to chill at. I finally found Velvet Bar, which was decent but not like the classy feel I was looking for. After some drinks, we roamed again then CBF anymore. So we chilled outside near the river which was nice and relaxing. And it was making Shirl sleepy. Hahaha. We went to visit Donna at work and went home. Nice day with my SON :D
I also went to see The Getaway Plan. One of my favourite bands. Well initially, Belinda asked if I wanted to go ages ago. But knowing me, I said just leave it to the date and we'll get it then. >< rja =" screamo," plan =" Rock.">
The start to my holidays have been good so far I guess. All these birthdays are around the corner. Kinda excited for it too. And can't wait to catch up with all my girls :D:D Should be awesome. I want to go zoo too. But this ass hasn't got back to me :(:( So yeah, I'm all set for outings :D But need money. So I need to jobhunt too. So much on my agenda. Hoping for an awesome holidayyy.

Halfway through the year
Gosh time flies so fast. 3 months of summer holidays after VCE and only a 12 week semester of uni. Then nearly 2 months of holidays coming up, which I'm gonna study a unit during the winter term. I'm still hoping for a job. But it's quite impossible to even get one these days. So called brother's friend was supposed to help me get a job but the bloody manager is slower that freaking GJ's manager or something.
I've literally spent most of my money and my key card is drained to the max. I ended up getting my boots and another trench coat on the side. Sigh. If only money did grow on trees...
So yeah, I haven't been up to much lately. After my last blog, I ended up going Japan fest with some of my girls and a few of Catherine's friends. It was a nice day out. First time in Box Hill as well. The festival had heaps of Japanese stuff (obviously) and delicious food as well. There were a few showcases that were on but we didn't get to see most of them because we arrived pretty late. I'm currently lusting after a kimono now. So pretty and oriental. I ended up getting a souvenir of my name and Hime on a piece of paper, written in Japanese characters. The lady was so stylish with her calligraphy.
You know this time last year, everyone was stressing out about exams. And now, I have barely started exam prep and it two weeks until my first exam. I've honestly lost motivation for first year. Maybe if uni was closer to home it would be better. And if it wasn't so flexible with timetable. I guess I could always get in the habit in Semester 2, but I need to get through Semester 1 first.
I'm feeling majorly nostalgic. Again, this time last year, I had a strong network of support. Well wasn't really a network but yeah, you know who. It was like if I needed to destress well that was pretty much it. Text and call, and it would make everything feel better. I can't believe time is flying so fast. I wish it would just stop for a second so we can embrace something from it.
Anywho, so many things are coming up. Birthdays, outings etc. I don't really know what to prioritize anymore.
Oh, the weird highlight of my week. During high school, I used to call younger girls who'd admire me my "Fanclub." Yep, they would stare at me, scream my name from a distance just to wave and run up and hug me at miscellanous times. Well yeah the other day I was at Melbourne Central, and for some reason yr9 Marian girls were lurking around. Probably some city project. Well going up the escalators, I saw a pack of them and one of them screams out OMG HEY IT'S YOU!!! Runs up and literally bear hugs me. I was taken by surprise. So I just tapped her on the back. Children these days.
Yesterday, Shirl called me out to go for lunch. Well she took me to this restaurant at the end of Chinatown. It was a fancy and stuff so we ended up being stingy because they didn't give us a proper menu and we didn't have that much money on us. ROFL.
Oh btw, I lost my dress on eBay. So freaking depressing. Maybe they should just cancel the ball because Miss Helen cannot get her dress. LOL.
Anywho. I think I've had enough of blogging.

I ended up getting a souvenir of my name and Hime on a piece of paper, written in Japanese characters. The lady was so stylish with her calligraphy.
You know this time last year, everyone was stressing out about exams. And now, I have barely started exam prep and it two weeks until my first exam. I've honestly lost motivation for first year. Maybe if uni was closer to home it would be better. And if it wasn't so flexible with timetable. I guess I could always get in the habit in Semester 2, but I need to get through Semester 1 first.
I'm feeling majorly nostalgic. Again, this time last year, I had a strong network of support. Well wasn't really a network but yeah, you know who. It was like if I needed to destress well that was pretty much it. Text and call, and it would make everything feel better. I can't believe time is flying so fast. I wish it would just stop for a second so we can embrace something from it.
Anywho, so many things are coming up. Birthdays, outings etc. I don't really know what to prioritize anymore.
Oh, the weird highlight of my week. During high school, I used to call younger girls who'd admire me my "Fanclub." Yep, they would stare at me, scream my name from a distance just to wave and run up and hug me at miscellanous times. Well yeah the other day I was at Melbourne Central, and for some reason yr9 Marian girls were lurking around. Probably some city project. Well going up the escalators, I saw a pack of them and one of them screams out OMG HEY IT'S YOU!!! Runs up and literally bear hugs me. I was taken by surprise. So I just tapped her on the back. Children these days.
Yesterday, Shirl called me out to go for lunch. Well she took me to this restaurant at the end of Chinatown. It was a fancy and stuff so we ended up being stingy because they didn't give us a proper menu and we didn't have that much money on us. ROFL.
Oh btw, I lost my dress on eBay. So freaking depressing. Maybe they should just cancel the ball because Miss Helen cannot get her dress. LOL.
Anywho. I think I've had enough of blogging.

Nearly Insane.
Well atleast I think I am. I haven't blogged in awhile which means this is a definite time for destressing.
Exams are just around the corner and I haven't even started studying for them. Each day goes by and I am still trying to understand concepts of the Human Anatomy and Physiology, which I don't think I'll ever get because the Human body is way too complex especially when they are using such fanciful names for everything.
Just two more weeks and this semester will be over. Then exams. Then Winter term. Come to think of it, I don't know why I signed up for Winter term now. I know it gets one of my units out of the way but I don't think it's possible for me to finish my course earlier. I highly doubt they would offer Physiology or Psychology units in a Winter or Summer term, which kind of sucks. But I guess I get to hang with Jaime, seeing as I have found my other nerd half.
So I think I've been too emotionally tense. Watching One Tree Hill is sooooo not good for my emotional health. I get teary atleast 3-4 times in each episode and it makes me yearn for him so much. I really don't get that with other tv shows. I think OTH is just too pro of a show.
I think I've been going shopping quite a fair bit lately. I'm down to nothing in my bank account and nothing in my money box. My latest buys: new beanie and trench coat. I'm quite happy with both actually. The beanie is cute as :):) Keeps my hair warm too. The trench coat I just bought today at a bargain price so I'm extremely happy about it. It's red as well. Seeing as it was cheap as, I was gonna invest in another one, however, they had no sizes left, so I might check the Melbourne Central store on Thursday. Speaking of new buys, I'm finally getting my boots this week. Or atleast I think I am. Well I've been contemplating whether to get them or not because I don't remember exactly how it looks and whether it's worth buying or not. But I guess it shouldn't really matter because I got noone to impress AND it will keep me warm during this winter season. Sigh, shopping seems like my only best friend at them moment. But money running so low :(:(
So the other we were supposedly going to a Marian College Reunion. Well turns out it wasn't really a reunion, but as the flyer stated "An event for pasttime students." So it wasn't just 2008 graduates but it was EVERYONE, literally. The number of people that came was quite small. From my 2008 cohort there was about less than 10 of us. I guess, again, I'm at the point saying, I see who I can and make the most of it. The night wasn't all bad. I felt really good being inside Marian grounds again and it just felt so warm and welcoming. Marian just feels like home sometimes I guess. I mean being there for 4 years has showed me that the school cares for it's students so much. I really miss being there. Well the whole point of the night was trying to get past students of Marian to make a community from the outside to link with the inside. i.e. I can still participate in JDF and commit to other things like being a guest speaker or whatever. They want the REAL world to come inside those big gates. I guess I understand there idea because I miss JDF and I've been meaning to come back to help out and such.
The other thing that came up was the Leo's Club Charity ball. This has been lurking around Facebook for awhile but of course hearing about it first hand is much better. I'm thinking about going, even though I didn't really like Leo's back in VCE, the reason being the girls were ditching JDF for Leo's. I must admit, Leo's were more about money leeching i.e. fundraising for a cause, whereas JDF was more about Awareness and minimal money leeching. Anywho back to the ball. I'm excited. Even though I have a major money setback. I'm trying to keep my budget at a minimal. I found a potential dress on eBay which I'm almost ready to bargain for. $60 for the ticket. And of course shoes. I'm dying for some strappy gladiator heels :):) That would make me extremely happy. I got an idea of how I want my hair. But I'm not quite sure what look I want to portray. LOL. I'm excited about the ball. It's for charity and dressing up is a major bonus. It should get a good night depending if everyone goes. Just over two months away.
Yup and in two months and 1 day shall be my 19th. How ugly does 19 sound. I really wanna go Teppanyaki for my birthday but only problem is MONEY, again. This stupid economic crisis is driving me insane because it's nearly impossible to find a job. So yeah Teppanyaki. I'm thinking at Ginza Teppanyaki in Chinatown. That's where all the celebrities dine. Well like Jackie Chan and even Queens of the Stone Age. I came across it when Helen Nguyen and I were looking for a place to eat. She wanted to show me this Sake & Grill restaurant on the other end Chinatown, so we wondered down and saw a few fancy restaurants that I would loveeeeeeee to dine in. Meals are quite pricey though. And it might not even taste good. But yeah, Teppanyaki is definitely on my agenda, birthday or no birthday, I must dine there!
Anyway time is of the essence and I really should start doing my Physiology lab report.
