My Wish

I'm in a lovey dovey mood now so if you can't stand stuffs like that, don't bother reading.

I was reading The Time Traveler's Wife and came upon this page which talks about how much Clare wants to chop her hair off but can't because Henry loves it and then she says she will miss it but it's just so much effort. It felt so familiar reading all that because, for the longest time I have always wanted to cut my hair short (when my hair was super duper long) and when I say short, I mean super short. Has anyone ever noticed how long my hair used to be?


Crap would you look at that? It reached my hips. My freakin' hips.

And honestly, I do miss it T_T

Not that my hair's super short now. It's heavily layered and the length still remained about the same but it doesn't look as long as it was, like in that picture anymore just because it's much thinner now. The reason I kept the length is because, like Clare, I know I will definitely miss it and also, Wk loves my long hair (he tells me that, I didn't assume this myself ok) and I know he'll definitely be upset if I cut it short.

Anyway, I must say, having it layered has been the best thing I could do for my hair cos all my split ends are now gone, it's more manageable, it doesn't tangle as much, it's easier to comb and the best part is I still get to keep the length eventhough it might not look as long as before :)

Ok I know, that's like totally random. I just thought I would share that small part of that novel here cos I can relate to it so much. That book has been ok. I won't say it's as interesting as Life of Pi but I do enjoy reading it. It's so freakin' thick lah 500 pages wtf. Probably need another month or two to finish it cos I only do about 8-10 pages a day.

Ok that aside, I have been missing Wk so damn freakin' much these few days. We skype/msn /webcam almost every single day. We sometimes wake each other up. And the best part is, we motivate each other to do what we're supposed to do - I'm supposed to practice, he's supposed to work on his design. And I must say, having him around is sooooo much better cos otherwise, I won't even bother to take my violin out!

Everytime I look at him in my laptop's screen, I think of the day we're going to live together, in OUR apartment, OUR room, OUR kitchen, OUR bed, OUR computer (haha next time about this), OUR place. And it just motivates me to want to work hard and just get freakin' get accepted by the university.

The next time I go to Melbourne, I'm expecting to say... "OUR" apartment instead of "HIS" apartment, or "HIS" bed. The next time I we wish each other "good morning nigga" (inside joke), I want to be able to laugh right in front of him and not just typing "ha ha ha" and punch 'Enter' on the keyboard. And the next time I expect all these, is next year.

The more I think about all these, the more I want to practice, and the more I think about all these, the more I'm afraid of rejection. It's stressing me out seriously.

This is not just a diploma or a degree. It's a master studies. It's not something you can apply by sending in a bunch of papers and forms and whatnot. I sometimes wonder if I'm actually fit, or good enough to apply. A lot of people tell me I can do it and I can get in and all that. I know everyone's being nice but whether they really think I am good enough, I don't know. What I know is I want to just do my best, and apply and hope for the best.

But I constantly think about a lot of 'what if's. What if I get rejected?

I cannot take rejection. At all. Not at this stage now. He has given up the contract and hasn't even found a new accomodation, all because he's expecting me. How can I even deal with a rejection when I'm thrown with all these expectations?

Another reason to not being able to handle rejection is that I seriously cannot stand this LDR any longer anymore.

I just want to stay beside him and have someone to touch my hair. I just want to stay beside him and have someone to keep me warm. I just want to stay beside him and have someone to tell me how much he loves me everyday, right to my face and not through the computer or phones. I'm just someone who's like many others out there, who needs her dose of affection everyday. I hope it's not too much to ask for.

(Cover) Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" FAIL!!!

So I know I haven't been updating and that's because I'm busy with... things (actually nothing much but I just wanna make myself feel a little bit better by saying I'm busy haha!) and there's nothing much to talk about anyway.

Let me just entertain you with my super failed take on Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me". I love that song. Not that I can relate to the lyrics but I only like the music. There's a difference ok. I like the melody, how simple the chords go but yet the music's good. If you listen carefully (only music ppl can understand this), the chords are actually repeating all the way. There's not even modulation or anything. And all her songs are simple like that, but they sound great. She totally made me fall in love with country+pop and she's only 19! So young and talented. Her songs are very typical teenage love songs with cheesy lyrics but admit it, you sing along to her songs when you listen to it! You pick it in karaoke! Admit it! And I'm not talking about just girls ok, I've seen a lot of guys singing to her songs too.

Before watching, yes I have a lot of makeup slapped onto my face yes I went out of tune a little yes I'm such a loser cos I tell you how much I love this song and then I can't even sing it properly but that's because this is only my 1st attempt ok so don't expect too much lah!

bb

Anyone wants me to do a full cover? =D I promise I won't fail.

Ok bye.

EevIsVain

I just realised that I've been abandoning my update on Project 365 for 11 freaking days! But I did take pictures every single day. Most of them are my self-obsessed, camwhore pictures cos I was and have been playing a lot with makeup lately haha.


#233 - Hahah cheating picture. Took this today but every other day I have been practising so, my violin is always hung that way onto my music stand.


#234 - Like I said, was playing with make up.


#235 - And I mean A LOT of makeup. I know my face looks a little too white in this picture, it happens all the time when I take pictures with flash.


#236 - My 10 samples of eye pigments from Lumiere came this day. Loving them!


#237 - Another makep day. Wah I think this was my best mascara-application day! Look at my lashes like false ones!


#238 - Ok I look super hideous here that's because I was experimenting with colours on my bare face. Didn't have anything on so it looked really ridiculous.


#239 - Another attempt on natural/neutral-looking makeup!


#240 - I was at uni and when I was done with things, it was peak hour so I dropped by MidValley and... yeah. But I needed most of them anyway! Only the MAC eyeshadows and the Anna Sui Ring Rouge were impulse purchases...


#241 - After about a year or 2 of colour blue/violet/gray contacts, I'm finally going back to black. Still not used to it though :/


#242 - I've been looking for the MAC Pro Eyeshadow Palette for the longest time! It's a palette with 15 empty eyeshadow slots made to fit eyeshadows pans, so you can customize it with any eyeshadow colours you like - MAC ones of course. A few days ago Melissa left me a message in my chatbox saying the MAC store in Kuching sells it and I got a little surprised cos I have never thought any MAC stores in Malaysia sells it only because I've never seen them on display haih. So when I was at MidValley a few days ago, I dropped by MAC and asked about it and tadahhh! They have it! I bought it immediately eventhough I don't have 15 eyeshadows (yet!). On top of that, I bought 2 more eyeshadows so now I have 4 in my collection and I depoted them yesterday and woohoo, success! Ok if you don't know makeup you probably won't know about depoting.


#243 - My lunch today. Taking that picture was crazy, if you notice, I had to use my left hand to use the chopsticks and grab the noodle, and my right hand to click capture on my webcam. I am a righthander and my left hand cannot work for nuts. Oh except for playing the violin and piano of course haha.

Ok before I end this, let me just make an announcement that I've created another blog where I post all my self-obsessed, vain, makeup or anything beauty-related pictures and also blog about them of course.

I decided to make another page for that simply because I personally find it a little too messy to have too many things at once in one post like... I talk about a trip somewhere and then suddenly I go on about my own face. Maybe I'm just being sensitive but I personally prefer reading a post or a blog that is not too jumbled up, if you know what I mean. So I was thinking if I prefer my posts/blog to be that way what if there are readers who prefer it too? I know very well myself that I'm basically quite obsessed with makeup now and taking pictures of myself lol so I don't want to gradually turn this completely into a blog of that kind. I still want to keep this blog as a personal blog, an online update about my life for my friends who read me.

So just letting you know, if you're as obsessed with makeup/beauty or if you can tolerate 8712310 pictures of my face, you can catch me here. I'm not trying to promote this webpage hence, such an understated link (haha like lah a lot of people read me) because like I said, it's all about my face and my obsession which I won't post that much here anymore so if you like all that (you stalker hahaahah), feel free to check me out there.

Ok gtg bye!

Life of Pi - Yann Martel

Anyone noticed my "Currently Reading" column has one book taken off?

Bet no one did, cos I just only took it off HAHA. Ok not funny.

Anyway, yes I've finished Life of Pi finally! Aileen are you reading this? Haha. And I must tell you, IT IS SUCH A FREAKIN' GOOD BOOK!!!

Ohmigosh I can't describe how moved and... amazed I was with it. I simply cannot find the right word to describe how I feel about it. It's a mixture of inspired, moved, awed and all that. And at the beginning I was complaining so much about how boring it was. Seriously the first half (or maybe a third) was so freakin' boring I almost wanted to give up and start on other books. I was like what the hell, why the hell this book is a bestseller and why the hell it's a winning book for some dunno what booker prize? But oh well, everynight before I sleep I thought "Ok let's just give this another try" for a few nights and finally, it got interesting somewhere in the middle - when the ship sank.

I'm not going to start reviewing this book besides telling you readers that it's 'good' cos I suck at reviewing and my review will totally do no justice to how great and well-written this book is. I tried telling the story to Wk earlier in the afternoon and all he did was, "I don't see the point..." and "Huh, like that also can ah?" or "Hrm... why must he do that?"........zzzzz........

I was so excited that I wanted to excite him as well but he totally didn't get the whole point of the story. That proves how bad I am with words.
...

Either that, or he sucks. HAHAHHA.

So anyway, I'm both happy and sad that I've finished a book. Happy cos yay can go on to another book. Sad cos... I don't know if it's just me or what, but whenever I finish something be it books or a soap or a tv show series, I always get this 'empty' feeling after that. It's like... ok I'm done so what's next? And somehow I won't be as interested in other books/tv shows anymore given that the book/show that I previously read/watched, was really good. But yeah, I'm continuing on the other 2 books now.

I am totally anticipating for the movie! I heard it's directed by Ang Lee. It better be good! Well, seeing that it's Ang Lee, I'm putting high expectation on it.

Ok gotta go practice now. Oh yah good news good news!!! I totally saved RM500 cos I managed to get my university's letter to prove that the language of instruction was in English so now I can be exempted from IELTS!!! Ok what's bothering me now is that freakin' audition recording haih.

Because I Think Replying To Your Comments Deserve One Whole Post =)

What a long title. But yeah.

I am so happy and I honestly feel so freakin' blessed to have readers/friends who are concerned about my insignificant and unnecessary worrying. I feel so happy to read all the long, long comments because it tells me one thing - you guys actually took the time to highlight it and read through that whole long crap and you guys cared! I feel so touched T____T I'm not saying this just to make me seem like I'm nice, seriously! Well, I AM nice anyway HAHAHA.

ShinD, awww actually it's not that I am snobbish or anything it's just that I'm not good at talking with new people so a lot of times, people don't actually find me friendly and some even think I look "angry" hence, unapproachable -_- but thank you for saying I was friendly to you =D

Ping, well you are damn right about everything but stepping out of my comfort zone... I still need a lot of time to master the art of it hehe. Anyway, I hope you're doing fine in the UK! I read your post about LDR. Like I've always said, have faith! You can do it too. =)

Maggie, wtf your comment cracked me up the most! But they're all so true! Yala yala I don't like you wtf. HAHAHA. Yeah, the only thing that I actually look forward there is of course Wk, and at least one of my besties, you, are there! =) Omg but NARS is sooooo overpriced at Australia T_T

Esther, dim gai you scold me bitch T___T LOL! Anyway, the thing is, IF I get accepted I most probably will continue staying there cos I most probably will try to get a job there... but yeah. To think it through I shouldn't be complaining since its not that the world's shutting off on me. Eh even if I have Wk and Maggie there I will definitely miss you one lar T____T

Fang Chin, wah short and sweet hahaah! I like! Actually it's not about me wanting or not anymore, but more like can I make it? T___T

Laughing, haahahahah with you it's all about gossiping! Thanks for the encouraging words! I will =)

I guess afterall, I shouldn't be complaining because really, there isn't any problem. Well, like I said, I only wanted to ramble a little. Thanks again for the great comments, everyone! =)

On a totally unrelated note, here're the pieces that I'll be preparing for the audition:

Vivaldi's Winter Concerto
Beethoven's Spring Sonata
Wieniawski's Romance
Stravinsky's Russian Maiden's Song

I hope it's up to standard... Luckily I have Wk there because he helped me to ask the International Admissions' Officer directly and cleared all the confusion I had. The deadline's on Christmas Eve, I'll be submitting my application early November. I've even called my accompanist (who's a really good one btw, and expensive too T___T) and I was so glad that she said ok cos I was told that she's busy all the time and I was a little worried if she cannot help me. And another great news is that I don't have to submit in a video format, just an audio will do. Which is a great relief cos then I don't have to worry about tripods, sound balancing and whatevers. Now, where can I find a good sound recorder...

Haihhhhh

I know I said I won't be updating as often but here I am. I've been feeling really restless for the longest time. It's about application to study Masters at University of Melbourne. I have soooooo many mixed thoughts about this. Like SOOOOO many. Or maybe I should say SOOOOO much. A part of me wants to get accepted, a part of me doesn't. I'm pretty sure most of you know why I want to get accepted and I'm pretty sure most of you don't know why I DON'T want to get accepted. Yes, I've been keeping it to myself. I won't hide from everyone that the very main reason to me even wanting to apply to that university, is to stop my long distance relationship with Wk. I know, if we want to make it work, shouldn't he be doing something too, right? The thing is, he has done so much for me that I can never ask for more. I most of the time brag about the good things he has done for me, good things he got me etc etc but those are actually only like a small part of what he did or has been doing. Crap did I just bragged again? Cos the only reason I don't talk about EVERYTHING is to not sound like I'm bragging. Ok that aside, let me just let you all know the reason I even want to go to Melbourne and study is not because I love that place. Not that I hate it, I like that place and the only reason I'm liking it is because Wk's there and I'm serious. I don't want to lie to everyone and say that place is beautiful I love the people the weather blablabla when really, to think it through, if I were to be there by myself I would have hated it. So yes, my only reason to go there isn't really because I wanted to study, but to be with him. The reason I don't want to be accepted is not entirely because I don't want to study either. It's because I am afraid of the new surrounding and the new environment again. I have to once again, face new people, make new friends (hopefully, because I'm actually the last person anyone will call 'friendly'), learn new things. And besides, it's not Malaysia where I'm familiar of the culture and everything else. It's a totally new place, new culture. I am tired of building a new comfort zone. 3 years ago when I first went into uni, it took me about half a year to find people that I'm comfortable with. For about a month or two, I was all alone. And I hated it. I hated the part where I had to be alone on everything when everywhere I turn, I see people having a friend beside them to talk to. Even people only knew each for not long. I am not good at socializing at all. I am afraid of facing all that once again. I feel really happy with my group of friends from highschool and uni that I have found, that I am really comfortable and can be myself with. Esther, Wai Tuck, Cat, Adelle, Cheng Choo, Jian, Chooi Yin. Honestly, I am afraid of trying new things. I don't have the guts, I admit. I'm very much a stick-to-comfort-zone kind of girl. Besides all that fear on a completely new environment, I am worried of my youngest sister too. My other sister is at Sabah doing her degree, if I leave next year, my brother might leave for the UK in September. Then it'll be her alone at home. The thought of her being alone makes me sad. Also, another reason that I'm feeling so restless now is that, what if I don't get accepted? Money will be wasted. And not just my application fees or my violin lesson or accompaniment charges. Because Wk's foreseeing me there next year, he has cancelled his contract with his current apartment just to look for another apartment to accommodate the both of us. But what if I don't get accepted!!! I feel so stressed =( I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to be there! And I'm REALLY REALLY REALLY afraid of being rejected. And I'm REALLY REALLY REALL scared of new environment, and going through the 'alone' phase again. And if I go, I know that I will REALLY REALLY REALLY miss everything back home.

I want, and at the same time don't want it. Why! =(

Ok. Enough of ramblings. I'm going to sleep now.

Food in Melbourne

First of all, I'd like to thank all of you who shared with me your opinions on my previous post. Thank you sooooo so so so much for taking the time to voice out what you think! It seriously educated me a lot on how to be a better sister! I grew up to be the eldest so most of the time, I didn't have anyone to talk to since my younger siblings couldn't understand much and I didn't realise how I'm putting my past on my own sister by not bothering about her school life! I should have talked with her more about it. I seriously don't want her to go through the kind of shit like having no friends. Seriously, it's the worst feeling ever. And if she cannot even confide to anyone at home, that'll be so sad.

Alright! That aside, let me just continue with some pictures from Melbourne. By the way, I lazy resize la. Sometimes I wonder if you guys prefer the smaller pictures or the full sized one. Let me know if it does bother you.

Breakfast @ Globe Cafe

My chilli corn cakes with avocado, fetta, mint and Tasmanian smoked salmon - Tasted quite... exotic? Dunno if that's the right term. Wasn't bad but wasn't exactly yummy either. Very... strange combination.

Aileen's spinach and horseradish potato hash with poached eggs and hollandaise.


Wk's breakfast jaffle with fried egg, bacon and tomato.

@ Soda Rock Diner which is a really cool place. It's exactly like the diners you see on American TV shows. Like Back to the Future, or Cinderella Story (the one with Hillary Duff).

I think this was the Cheese Burger, which was really nice!

Look, they even have a jukebox on top of each table and mind you, they do work! I think it was about AUD1 for 3 songs. I picked Suga Suga (Archie's theme song), Glenn Miller Big Band's... something which I can't remember. I've been missing in action in uni's Big Band rehearsal that I can't even recall that piece's name. And also another song which I can't remember.

Look at the cheese freakin' oozing out! Mmm...

There's also a pinball machine which Wk played and lost in about 5 minutes HAHAHA. Ok maybe I did exaggerated but I remember he walked back and whined "Cheating one the machine!" HAHAHHA.

@ Maccas


Mighty Angus! How cool is that they even have a website!!! Ohmigoshhhh this was soooo good I'm craving for it right now! Sourdough bun, thick, tender and juicy beef patty, bacon, melted cheese, onion, mayo and zesty relish! *stomach drumming...

Lastly, @ White Tomato, Korean food.

We tried their Spicy Beef Hot Pot but it was toooooooooo oily. Seriously, the whole pot was filled with oil. Putting the oil aside, I actually quite like it. I thought it was quite nice.


Seafood pancake which was yummayyy!

Oh you know, I googled 'white tomato' and guess what popped out?




WTF

Seriously, there are such things as WHITE TOMATOES!??

Crazy. Anyway, from today I won't be updating often cos I'm preparing for my masters audition tape huhuhuhu T________T so, enjoy this video of a compilation of the pictures from my visit to the Tesselaar Tulip Festival! There are too many pictures and I'm just too lazy to upload it here so I figured the best way is to compile them. I do have individual pictures but if you're not my friend in Facebook, then too bad lah don't need to see. But they're not very interesting lah anyway.

bb

Ok bye!

PS I just noticed that all the pictures I put up are food, food and food! Was that all I did in Melbourne? Lol.

Bully

I was told something really shocking a few hours ago. Apparently, my sister has not many friends at school because her classmates think her hair's weird* and they refused to hang out with her. And I can so imagine people jeering and laughing at her hair. Assholes. She has this one friend (might be her ONLY friend), not sure a he or she, who does hang out with her and sometimes, under conditions. That so-called friend made my sis finish his/her homework and 'threaten' her that he/she will not hang out with her if my sis doesn't do his/her homework for him/her.

I was so shocked, I cried. I seriously don't know why. A sense of familiarity perhaps?

Not that I used to be ignored in school because I had funny hair but I do remember not having many friends around. Some days, I walked alone and ate alone during recess. And I also do remember trying really hard to please people just to get more friends. And by pleasing, I mean ways like what my sister's jerk friend did. And I can tell you, if you have not been in situations like that, you can never understand the kind of pain and misery I went through.

Anyway, that's not the point. The point is, I really need opinions on how I can help my sis now. Don't tell me to scold her friend because that'll mean losing her probably one and only friend. I was so shocked because I never thought things like this could happen to her because she has always been bubbly even after returning home from school. I found out all about these from my brother. I feel so bad as an older sister now =(

*It's very stiff and big, almost like having volumizing hairspray all over it and the strands are really dry and coarse. And you know all the Chinese schools' super freakin' ridiculous rule that girls must have ear-length short hair, it doesn't help at all because the shorter the hair, the bigger it gets. But seriously, I don't see any problem with that at all, it's not that she's balding or anything.

And just now when she was packing her schoolbag, she realised she left a stack of her homework books in the tuition centre. She probably asked my dad to something about it but instead of helping, he refused to and I think my sis probably asked a few times and got rejected cos after a while, she went on packing while crying really badly. And then, as if the matter's not bad enough, my parents went yelling at her telling her its her own fault and she should bear the responsibilities herself. And then my mom suddenly changed the whole topic and yelled at her about her hair saying it's so stiff and dry because she uses too much shampoo and that she doesn't take care of it.

Like what the fuck??? I am freaking sure you can't find any 9YO out there who actually knows anything about haircare! I myself did not! I'm pretty sure my mom too!

I don't understand why instead of thinking of a way to solve the matter, they prefer yelling and making people feel like total crap.

It's not like my sis has been forgetting to keep her books. It's her freakin' first time! And for goodness sake, it's a whole bunch of her homeworks which she probably needs to submit tomorrow! And again, we all know Chinese schools' super freakin' ridiculous school teachers who spank their kids in whatever shit they do e.g. talking too loudly, talking too much, forgetting to bring books, forgetting to complete homeworks and whatnot.

It's not that she forgot 1 book, 1 subject or 1 homework. She forgot one whole stack! Yes it clearly is her own fault but hello? Have they no pity on a just a 9YO?

If I were to have finished ALL my homework already and still got spanked just because I forgot to bring them to school and my parents would not want to help me no matter how much I begged and how hard I cried, I would totally feel like crap and cry a river too. She is after all, only a 9YO girl.

But yeah, that's my parents. Me and my other siblings were all raised the hard way. Yelling all the way. Which pretty much explains why, we don't really talk to our parents. Unless its the essentials like school fees, allowances and stuffs. Otherwise, pretty much nothing.

I'm not saying I don't love them and they don't love us as their children. I'm just a little heartbroken to see a scenario like this. Its like seeing the past of myself.

But anyway, do leave me your opinion.

Spring Cleaning!

Lazeeeeeeeeeeee. Lazy to blog, lazy to edit and upload pictures.

#228 - Made this for dinner. Yummy! Fresh pasta rocks. And I totally made those beefballs myself, they're not ready-made ones ok.
#229 - I love-hate Maccas at the Tullamarine Airport.

#230 - Reached home in the morning and saw this on my table. I hate this picture. I look fugly =(
#231 - Did a little bit of spring cleaning on the box I keep all my skincare/hair products and whatnot. Threw away a whole lot of junks which I've not been using for a long time. Can you believe it? I saw one Bodyshop Body Butter and it was manufactured in 2001 holy crap that stuff's 8 years old!!! And no, I've not been using it anyway. Ugh.

#232 - Bought some stuffs in Tesco and finally organized my makeup products which have been pouring out from my small pouches. I've accumulated an amount that my pouches no longer can be zipped up anymore. So I got that tiered mini plastic drawer, a letter holder and a pencil cup.

My vanity! And a few books that I am currently reading and will read soon.


1st drawer - Face and lip products. 2nd - miscellaneous stuffs like fake eyelashes, eyelash curler, nail polish, some eyeshadow bases, gel eyeliner, sharpener, tweezers, scissors etc.


3rd - brushes. I actually bought the pencil cup to store my brushes but I was a little grossed out thinking about dusts which might get trapped in the bristles so I decided to keep them inside the drawer. 4th - powder eyeshadows.

For my huge eyeshadow palettes, I got a letter holder and stacked them in it. And for the pencil cup which lost its function for my brushes, I put all my mascaras, eyeliners and another eyeshadow primer in it.

Actually, I'm still not quite happy with the organization. I wanted to separate the miscellaneous tools, blushers, face products, lips, eyeshadow primers/bases and eyeliners but clearly, 4 drawers are not enough -_- Looks like I need another one hrm. Well, that's not what really bothers me. I have a feeling that all these might slowly build up in the future...

Yet Again

My baby's sleeping like a baby now while I'm munching the addictive honey roasted macadamia nuts and packing, and getting teary once in a while. Julie and Julia was very inspirational, but it ended in a weird and sudden way. But at least the movie did get me to want to pick the book up and start reading it. I've gotten all the things that I wanted in the checklist. Yes even that Smashbox primer cos I instantly loved how it felt on my skin when I tested it. I can't wait to use it. I need to go remove my makeup and wash my face, tone and moisturize it nicely before I board on the plane. It's gonna be yet another long, sad 8 hours flight back home. I just hope I can fall asleep and not think about anything. I'm seeing McD's before going into the terminal. I'm seeing us hugging and tears streaming down my cheeks like nobody's business. I'm seeing me walking away without turning back and me crying buckets. Damn I hate LDR.

Yet Another 'Last Day' Here

These few days I have been feeling like a maid. Or a slave. Hrm sounds a little wrong. Whatever. I don't mind being a maid/slave if I can just stay here T____T *prays that my flight tonight will somehow be cancelled, or delayed! Argh!

Made some hashbrowns for breakfast. Will be going out to Vic Market in a bit to get the addictive honey roasted macadamia nuts that Maggie introduced to me. Omg that thing is super addictive. And the good part is it's healthy! :D And it's uber cheap as well! I think it's only AUD6 for 200gm? I'm pretty sure it's overpriced in Malaysia. And I don't think honey roasted macadamia can be found easily back at home. So, I'll be getting at least 500gm of those man!

And some other last minute shopping before we hit the cinema to catch Julie and Julia! Yes it's out today! The movie's at 4pm so I gotta buy all the stuffs I want before that because shops here close at 5pm how sad. Let's make a checklist of what I should be getting.

1. Macadamia nuts
2. Something from the duty free shop
3. Maybe another book? Will drop by Big W and see if they have 'The Last Song' by Nicholas Sparks.
4. Softlips! I better stick to pine coco.
5. Hrm... Still contemplating on Smashbox's Photo Finish Primer cos it's too expensive T_T

Did I miss anything?

I Miss You Already

It's 2.30am here now (sounds weird, can't figure if it should be the other way round - "now here"?) and Wk's at the living room working away with his design stuffs while I'm here bumming. My flight's tomorrow at 1.45 am. I know, that's a crazy late flight and I picked it on purpose. I always pick the latest flight on Thursdays because my work basically begins on Friday afternoons. I try my best to maximize the amount of time I'm here, with him. And I think its quite evident already that I'm sad and emotional right now. This visiting thing's like a drug. You get euphoric temporarily and suffer when the effect withdraws from your system. The higher you get, the harder you fall. And yet, people still do it. I still do it. As much as I love being here, being in my comfort zone, being in the arms of the person I love and have been missing, I hate it when I need to leave. Everything feels like a sweet dream - short and sweet. I can really go crazy if this shitty LDR keeps going on.

And it's so funny now that I find myself living to the lyrics of Aerosmith's 'I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing' where it goes like "I don't wanna fall asleep cos I'd miss you babe, and I don't wanna miss a thing...". At this hour I could've probably slept away but somehow I don't want to sleep just because he's not, yet. What a corny situation eh? Heh.

Ok. I'll just go practice my violin. Yeah. At 2.30am. Haha.

Update

Okay, I've finally edited the pictures that have been rotting away in my camera. Uploading them now so might need to wait till tomorrow to update here with pictures.

I'm about to go back home. So far, I've been enjoying myself. In fact, too much that it's not helping my practice schedule at all :( But whatevers. I'm not regreting every single second/cent I spent here. I feel so familiar with this environment now. I adapted to the cold, the dressing, the transportation, the shops, the good stuffs around, the food, the price eventhough I still do convert sometimes, the people. It almost felt like I have been living here for a very long time when really, it's only 3 months, cumulatively. I'm not complaining to go back of course. Ultimately, I still love my home, my bed, my annoying sister, my weird but loving parents, my ji mui, my karaoke gang. And I do miss all that. It's just that... haih. LDR again.

But I guess there's nothing I can do when I don't really have much of an option but to officially get myself that freaking visa that allows me to be here, do I?

I seriously hate the daylight savings. It totally screwed my body clock.

Ooh I bought a new book! The Time Traveler's Wife! I was actually contemplating between that and Twilight cos they were both discounted at Big W. I got the former cos I personally am not interested in Twilight's storyline (because I simply don't believe in love at first sight at all, or falling in love without any reasons) and I don't understand why so many people love it. Yaya teen girl and vampire fall in love blablabla AND SO??? Ok maybe it's just a personal thing. Or maybe I should have just read the book and not watch the movie first. I am not crazy over the movie at all. I hate Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan) there (actually I hate her real personality as well haha) not because she gets to act with Robert Pattinson ok, I just think her acting sucks in it. I quite like Robert Pattinson in Harry Porter as Cedric but not as Edward Cullen in Twilight cos I think he's kinda weird in the movie, the way he talks and all. Yes he's charming but er... I'm not going gaga over him. I better not criticize him more otherwise I might get flamed or just get butchered by fans of his.

Ok to cut the crap short, I'm not saying the book's bad cos clearly, I haven't read it so I can't judge. I've watched the movie and wasn't inpressed by the story, and plus all the weird and sucky acting were just a turn off for me. I may start reading the book if someone can tell what's interesting about it...

Oooh yay the pictures are up! Just a continuation of P365 though.

AND I AM SO FREAKIN' SORRY I OVERLOOKED FANG CHIN'S QUESTION BEFORE I MADE BOTH VIDEOS!

So, his question was "If you ever have a superpower, what would it be and why?".

Hrm I think I'm going to be more realistic. I want to have a power like Micha Sanders from Heroes called the 'Technopathy' so that I can make the ATM machine go crazy and then I can get more money HAHAHAHA. Ya what! Who needs the ability to fly? Or go through walls? Hrm actually teleportation and invisibility's a good one too... basically any powers than can easily get me more money, I LIKE LOL! Yes I am materialistic, and I'm pretty sure anyone whom by any chance have these powers WILL be materialistic also. This is reality, not Heroes! Save what world...

Nars Orgasm

Hello people!

Eh what lar come on la ask me something funny la why all your questions so boring?? I did say I'll ignore questions that are too personal but you definitely can ask me something like, "how often do you dig your nose?" or "which finger do you use to dig your nose?" or things like that right?? Come on! Ask me ask me!

Ok I've been quite lazy lately so didn't update much although I do have lots of pictures to post up. Like those when I went to the tulips festival 2 days ago oh my gosh it was so freakin' pretty! And hrm I wanted to do a post about shopping but I wanna wait till I'm back in Malaysia first cos I'm sorta waiting for the list to end HAHAHA if you get what I mean.

Anyway, my Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask has finally arrived! But gotta collect it from the post office cos it came in today when nobody's around. I can't wait to see/use it! Tomorrow we'll be heading to the post office to collect it, then Wk will go to the salon to get his hair cut and I'll go to Vic Market to get some fresh meat and vege.

Before I end this pointless post (ok maybe there's a point, which is to ask readers to ask me more ridiculous but not personal questions haha), let me just scream here that I FINALLY GOT MYSELF A NARS ORGASM!!! I know sounds a little wrong but whateverrr.

Ok good night.
