La vie est Belle <>

(O_O)

I want my Daddy Tan & Mummy Lim ! ! !

I want my Brody & Snotty Monkey ! ! !

I want my Gramps ! ! !

Boohoo !
I'm missing them like crazy.

=(

I've moved into the new room and lots of things are still packed. There's no funiture or drawers to hide my stuff!

Need. To. Get. Rid. Of. Stuff.

I've packed a bagful of clothes and bags to give to the Salvos.
But why do I still have so much stuff???

*pouts*

No more shopping for you anymore Miss Tan!

=(

Stressful week due to the upcoming exam and English. Crazy English. Just done with an essay test and now I'm trying to finish up my expository text. Have to design the cover too!

And my topic choice?

Cloning & Organ Transplantation

Am I crazy or what?!
Right now my desk is stacked with books on genetic engineering, cloning, medical ethics, etc.

But it's a really interesting area.
Love it!

Maths paper is on Friday and I have yet to compile my cheatsheet.

MAJOR PANIC!

I'm so doomed.

DOOMED !

Supposed to be celebrating Evee's 21st at Hitz this Friday night, and Metro on Satuday night. But from the looks of things, I'll be a nerd and hit my books!

Sorry Evee darling.

=(

Will make it up to you when I come back on the 14th.

Forgive me baby girl.

;p

One more week and I'll be flying off to Melbourne!

Woot!

room-less

Finally shifted all my stuff out of the room and into the lounge. And right now, I feel like a homeless!

And I have no idea when can I move into the new room. So there's a really probable chance of me sleeping in the lounge tonight!

Maybe I'll crash at my friend's place.

Argh.

Feeling super pissed off.

There goes my day. What a way to start it. And why do we still have classes on the exam week???

And the most ridiculous issue is that they are still teaching new stuff!

I miss my poly days pre-exam study week!!!

Let me wail and grumble like a spoilt baby please.

Super pissed.

BAH!

P.S.

My dear Delusional Bitch is attached!
Way to go buddy. I'm really happy for you.
And I think she's a really great girl.

=)

So when will it be my turn?
I want my own guy bitch!!!

Muahaha.

La vie est Belle <>

In a circle it goes.

The parody of the situation, alike a fine tuned drama.

The ensuing distance that followed the whilom passion.

How does two transients to be such familiar strangers?

~^*^~^*~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~

Metamorphosis;

A subtle evolution, a cunning disguise of change.

A beautiful illustration of Herbert Spencer's "survival of the fittest".

Busy Bee Me !

I'm spending a totally fabulous Sunday packing my stuff, finishing up Physics, preparing for English test, and mugging for exam!

I'm the Royal Highness of Multi-tasking!

Muahahaha.

Gotta get all my stuff out of the room by Tuesday for carpet cleaning, and then into the new room on Wednesday.

All this moving chaos right before exam!

How much more appropriate can it get?

*panic*

I shall refrain myself from running around in circles with my hands waving wildly in the air, and screaming my lungs out.

Which by the way, is my favourite activity.

*beams*

My drawing is half done and I have yet to start on the portrait.

Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh.

I'm scooting off to pack my stuff along to the groove of the music tuned on high!

*shake my bum*

The Cookie Jar

The last chocolate hot fudge cookie which lies stuck at the bottom of the jar.

Unless I break it, I can't reach it.

Will I ever break the jar?

Or will I just continue to be content with knowing that there is a chocolate hot fudge cookie in the jar?

What if one day someone else comes along and takes the jar away?

What if one day I stop wanting the chocolate hot fudge cookie?

The chocolate hot fudge cookie which is warm in your hand, tasty to the brain and sticks to your heart.

What a sinful treat.

La vie est Belle <>

once again

I am now sporting the shortest haircut I've ever had in my entire 20 years of life (minus infancy of course)!

Snipping my locks off has always serve as a representation of change, signifying the start of something new.

It's a therapeutic act in itself actually.

And so there goes my plan of growing long flowy wavy hair.

*sigh*

I once heard this being said to a lil' girl who's crying because her hair was being cut.

"What are you crying for? It'll grow out eventually."

And yes, it'll grow out eventually.

Just like everything else.

ohh la la ~

The weather's getting colder and colder day by day ! ! !

I'm gonna turn into a human popsicle soon ~ ~ !

Hmm . . .
I wonder if I taste nice . . .

Muahahaha !

=p

Got caught in a sudden downpour on my way to college on Friday and was soaking wet! Ended up being late for Physics and got teased by Steve. Bleah!

The whole class was staring at me cos I was wet through and through, and quoting David the Evil, "that was cute!".

Boo! What a friend!

Ended up standing at the back of the class for the whole lesson cos I was trying to dry myself with the heater.

Hahaha. Quite a sight I must say.

Tried Box3 (next to Eddy's) at Carousel, and other than the salad which tasted all right, the other dishes were pretty bad.

Quoting Sharon the Picky Eater, "instant food!".

Her steak came out pretty fast, so you can just imagine how instant that was.

And the colour of my margarita was pretty off.

*shrugs*

Tried a new place called Greek Taverna in Northbridge, which has a great cosy atmosphere and delicious food. Their grilled veggies are definitely a must try!

Was sitting near the fire place and I was totally mesmerised by it. The raw passionate dance of the fire and the warmth radiating from it had a calming and hypnotic effect. Felt really good just watching it.

Had Galaktoboureko for dessert, which is warm custard pudding in pastry. The pastry was really heavenly, although too much of the custard wasn't such a delight after all.

I'll definitely go back to try out their other dishes.
I love Greek cuisine!

Anyway, just got back from chilling with Evee, Adrian and Sean.

Had lots of laugh even though I don't understand half the conversation, cos they were speaking in Cantonese!

I could only catch bits and pieces cos my language bank for Cantonese is really limited! But I'm learning slowly, and I definitely know more words now than I do before I came here. I can even speak a few words now!

So that's an improvement I guess.
Haha.

I never knew that guys can look good in skinny jeans, but apparently some can pull it off quite nicely.

And I realise . . .
I'm starting to dig guys with nice wrist and fingers!

BAH !

What is that all about hey ? ? ?

But rest assure, my fetish is still ultimately guys with nice voice!

Hohoho.

Aww . . .
Now I'm missing Mr Therapeutic Voice!

Boo!

La vie est Belle <>

summary

With winter coming up and the start of casual work, my body's starting to feel the fatigue. Feeling really tired out for the past week, and all I wanna do is to cuddle up under the blankie and sleep.

The chilly weather and shorter daylight hours are making my system sluggish, and I guess I'm going through some mild winter blues. The word "depressed" would be way too strong.
Just feeling a little anti-social at times and easily irritated.

Even my source of motivation isn't doing it magic on me at the moment.

Not to mention, semester exam is coming up in 3 weeks' time, with my first paper on 29th June. I'm starting to get a little worried now, but that's not gonna help.
So I just gotta suck it up and hang on.
3 weeks will be over really soon!

My last paper is on 5th July and I'll be flying off after that. Will be away from Perth for 9 days, and hopefully I'll have a blast during the time-off. Just wanna go away to somewhere else and release all the accumulated stress and fatigue. Catch up on those much needed sleep and to laugh a lot.

So right now, it's the prospect of the time-off that is pulling me through.

Hang on there girl!

Work is really enjoyable but I'm starting to feel some slight anger. It's not the customers but the fellow colleagues. It's the difference in working attitude that is rocking my boat here.

I pride myself in my working ethics and I don't give a damn even if that makes me "dumb". I'm being paid to do my job, and I will do it well. That's me, and I stand by it.

But of course, there is a bed full of roses which makes everything better. I have some really wonderful colleagues and managers too. They're a delight to work with!

In order to retain my sanity, I started drawing again. Got some tools today. Was doing pencil sketches on writing paper previously, but now I've got some colours and drawing pad.

Spending time alone sitting on the grassy slope, sketching and listening to my favourite music, is a great way to escape the endless chattering in the cafeteria during lunch time.

3 more weeks and I'll be away from Perth!

I will survive!

La vie est Belle <>

Let's jump !

I'm intending to grow my locks so that I can spot the long and flowy, messy and just out of bed look. But because I ALWAYS snip them off whenever I have the chance to, I've been resisting that overwhelming temptation for quite some time. And it's driving me nuts!

It's been more than 3 years since I spot a length that is way over my shoulder, and I THINK I really wanna try that out. Yet at the same time, I yearn to snip them off cos they're getting too long (according to my standard that is)! And not to mention, being stuck at a length that is neither considered long nor short, it looks kind of weird and is curling all over the wrong places.

Dilemma dilemma.

Or maybe I'm just too fickle-minded!

Was talking to Ellice last night and were talking about fears. Fear of height was mentioned and she said that the best way to overcome it is to go sky-diving. She did it during the April college break and quoting her, "It was totally awesome!"

And so that brought out the crazy urge in me to do it. I've always wanted to go sky-diving and somehow it just got pushed back into some remote recess of my mind. Now that she mentioned it, I wanna try it before leaving Perth!

Care to join me, anyone?

So excited!

Anyway, had my English exam today and I do hope dearly that I'll pass. There's just not enough time to write 3 essays in 2 hours! I've got pretty neat ideas for my topics but not enough time to plan and structure them. So I just scribbled anything that came to mind. Argh.

And there'll be another one coming up on 14th June. English is the only module that has 2 semester exams! Horror!

Hahaha.

Oh well, take care my loves.
Toodles!
