Face again

I just had to, this just reminds me of some forever-bachelor-swimming-diving-surfing-marine-biologist-in-Hawaii-with-aquaria-slash-doctor-with-hospital-and-owner-of-tang-yuan-kilang

YES I MEAN YOU, JJOSH23

Public holiday, observe

30th of March

Awesomasia National Day

Woah, can't believe it's been a year, one long-but-feels-short year :D

Ahh, I miss wasting time in class with you people,

maybe we'll waste life next time ;)

As quoted from Carpe Diem, 

A chord of THREE strands is not quickly broken

After parties with the royal family, mostly the princess (CRYSTAL), awsm, most awesome

So, Happy Awesomasia Day to the awesome people :)

The way you breathe really irritates me

  Autumn is finally here, yayy. It was pretty cold today, reminds me of that old class trip to Zen Garden, good times. I remember we all stood outside at night, in the cold breeze, trying to see who could beat the cold, haha, that was awesome and mostly just funny. 

    I stopped by the Warehouse Bookstore after school and found this awesome book! Warehouse Bookstore always has super cheap books, like 3 for $15 or $2 books and stuff, but they're mostly really old books. Anyway, I saw this book and it totally reminded me of It's Happy Bunny, haha. I just had to get it thanks to my sarcasm gene. The character in the book is Vimrod btw, I'm pretty sure it is related to Happy Bunny, they totally share the same evil ;)

  I got on a really old bus today, as in the bus I took to go home is really old. The air conditioning is pretty much non-existent, good thing today was a cold and cloudy day. For once, no crazy UV rays! Haha. So, I was on the bus and I suddenly realized I don't know where the bell thing is. And I have to press that bell thing or I'll miss my stop. Stun. So sakai, I literally could not find the bell to press. Sat there hoping someone else is getting off at my stop too. Which there is, relief much. Haha. Pray for the newer buses to come next time. 

The study of life

Biology test in a few hours. Completely did not study for it, yes, I'm lazy like that. And I'm spending time here instead, yay. 

Eureka moment?

  This picture just may sum up what my life philosophy is (woah, deeeep). But at least I get stuff done, I always do, mostly, not including homework. Okay, the point is, I also know that I have to work hard for the stuff I want. I mean, I know good grades won't just fall out of the sky, and I know it takes hard work to get successful and I know that money grows on trees but you can't pluck them off trees, haha. I am pretty sure I know that life is a horribly cold thing. And I really do work hard, you just can't see it, woah, haha. 

  So why the dismal post?

  I seriously don't know, haha. It's 3am and thinking sure does strange things to people. 

  Well, it hurts when people say hurtful things, even when they're true, I guess it hurts more when they're true. It still hurts a lot when people say true stuff that are not very nice. It's not nice to get squeezed lemon juice by reality in the face and most people would most throw lemons back at reality instead of making lemon juice or stuff like that, haha. Which reminds me of a situation ages ago in band, where people would stare at their instruments when they played something wrong and as what Mr. Ho said, why are you staring at the instrument instead of taking a mirror and looking at yourself. Haahh. The point is, after all those redundant stuff I said, haha, I realize my faults pretty clearly and yes, I am trying to change them, and yes, it hurts when people say it out loud to my face like I'm not making an effort. Sighhh. Which means no turning back, no turning back, hmmm, that's kinda hard to do. 

  Darn, this post is not supposed to happen, haha. I should be in bed. It's so not me to say things like this, ahahaha. 

I'm not angry 

I'm just saying

Sometimes goodbye is a second chance :)

-From some song on some radio, lol

Aha

  Apparently the city was in darkness but meh, I couldn't go out at night. Stayed at home. Alone. Almost alone since my homestay host stayed over someone's house. So just me and my two housemates. And the darkness. Aha. 

  On something totally unrelated, I really really wanna go on the CityCat, which is a ferry thing that goes up and down the Brisbane river. It's like so awesome! Haha, okay, exaggerating. And then there's the awesome Brisbane wheel that I've been staring at everyday ever since I got here. Someday I am so gonna get on it, provided my wallet circumstances allow it. 

Memento Mori

230311

Joy and sorrow in the form of SPM results!

  Aussy is 6000km away from KK but still, I can feel the heat of the SPM results release. I totally couldn't sleep for two nights and on the morning of the release date, I just so happen to oversleep, bsh. Great timing. To make things worse, both of my buses were late, oh gee. Goodbye 100 percent attendance, not that it matters anyway, haha. 

  I had English class in the morning on Wednesday and I practically did not pay any attention at all. I was staring at my phone, secretly of course and kept flipping it to check for messages. Nervous much. Well, I found out about my result during lunch break when I called Joshua who called Crystal who called Vicky. Hmmm, slightly disappointed I guess. I wasn't really expecting much, completely no confidence when I was doing the exam papers, but still, I was hoping for a miracle I guess, haha. Meh, still a little disappointed though, somewhat, like good isn't good enough, haha. Hmmm, I'm one in fifteen, one of the fifteen people, in TTSS, hmmm. Well, I don't know why but I just called my maths tuition teacher after receiving my results, haha. A+ in Maths and Additional Maths, A MIRACLE.

This ain't mine btw, must have belonged to a meme user ;)

  Super stunned today when someone told me something about the newspapers. Darn! They should not have published it! BSH, and they just had to use an ancient photo of me, bsh, I don't need to be on the paper! Get me off. 

WHAT IF

  It's supposed to be autumn, it's supposed to be autumn, it's supposed to cool down. The temperature's been rising back again, 31 degrees tomorrow, what. So so hot, this weather is horrible for sleeping and I have no air conditioning, bsh. I am so allergic to heat. 

  Meanwhile back at the ranch, SPM RESULTS, WEDNESDAY. The. Coming. Wednesday. Ahh, I'm starting to freak out, paranoia! Well, I don't really expect much, but deep down there's still that hope that a miracle will come true and I would miraculously get awesome results. What are the odds of that. Other than that, scholarships have been on my mind recently, haha, despo for scholarships suddenly. I never actually thought of applying for scholarships since I'm overseas and stuff but hmmmm... what if... hmmmm. That is, if my results are actually good enough, I fail. 9A* is obviously way too much to ask for, not in a million years would I be that smart or hardworking or both, haha. So, sleepless nights before the SPM results are released, check. 

*fingers crossed*

Earth Hour 2011

  I am in the country where Earth Hour first started, awesome!

btw, the picture's a link :)

26th of March 2011, 8:30pm! 

Which is next Saturday,

Switch off your lights for one hour

Not that it would kill you anyway

Unless you photosynthesise

Which I doubt it

Besides, it might save your electric bill ;)

Switch off your lights, or mother nature will switch it off for you ;)

Two Hundred and Sixty Four Days

  Sigh, I hope this is just another one of those days, those days when you feel absolutely horrible. Bshhh. I want to go home, forever, ahh, this place isn't my kind of place. Told ya I didn't want to come to Australia. I'm sorry me :( Turning back is for the weak! Haha, just kidding. Go home forever, that would be nice, hmmmm. Bsh, my ever changing mind, bshh. I'm sorry me again. Joshua and Sabina and Crystal, you guys should be here. Slack at coffee shops, awesome, most awesome ever. 

  I should study and stop procrastinating all the time. Darn force of habit. Chemistry test next Monday, English and Biology next next Monday and I'm pretty sure there's more on the next next next Monday and the next next next next Monday. Good thing I only have 2 major exams during my course, exams are not good for procrastinators. Sorry Tham, haha.

Hmm, I should remind myself that my blog is not a diary and I should put some intellectual stuff in it, so many stupid posts, intellect just isn't in my head. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts. It rained the WHOLE day today, it's gonna flood! Haha, no it's not, dramatic much. 

Barfing happy thoughts, hahaha.

Someday

  

  

  I saw this ad that day in Student Flights (which is a shop that sells well, student flights) for a tour in Europe, TEN DAYS, for like AUD 1000 something. That's reallyyy cheap considering I might have to pay at least AUD 1000 just for flight tickets if I go by myself. Ahh, envy rich people. I don't have the money to go anyway even if it's that cheap. 

Fry Day

I will never say never unless the circumstances are appropriate for the situation that I am in the current time - Rustin Hieber ;)

REBECCA BLACK IS TRENDING!!1!1 

Best example of an epic fail

Book the Eighth

HOPE

I voted! Did you?

  Haha, nah, I did not vote for nothing. They were just handing out those buttons at Ben and Jerry's ice cream shop, I took like, 5 of them, haha. Ben and Jerry's is awesome! But my wallet would not like me buying it often =/ I'm sorry wallet and bank account :( My term break's in a month! Yayy, procrastinate!

  On another note, one of my friends actually goes to Hope church, stun. I didn't think anyone I know would be going to Hope and woahh, I thought wrong. Yes, I shall go to Hope church people! *you know who you are* The Hope church service thing (is that what it's called?) is gonna be in UQ St. Lucia campus and unfortunately I do not know how to get there, it's prettyyyy far from my house, I shall figure that out. Taking the bus is so troublesome, the services don't run as early on the weekends and I have to walk to the next bus stop to take the earlier buses. I do not like that, at all, especially the walking part. Oh, and I found out that my usual bus stop is actually 1km away from my house, far much, so I walk 2km every day, woah. 

Week 4

  Hmm, exams are coming soon, that's fast. So, I looked at my calendars. STUNNED! PHYSICS TEST IN WEEK 4! This week is week 4! I am so going to die! Physics is really really really really really hard, I do not possess a physical brain. I hate the motion and forces chapter the most, I just cannot imagine motion and forces on a piece of paper. I am doomed. I hope the test is a lie.

  On another note, this week is week 4, which means I've been here for a month. Great, now repeat the process for another 8 times. Envy, envy, envy, most of my friends are going home for the holidays, what am I going to do here alone. Hmmm. This week's been kinda weird. My biology lecture was cancelled yesterday, yay, free period! Then, physics class was cancelled today, yay, I can go home 2 hours early! Oh joy, I only have English class tomorrow at noon but then I have that weird IELTS class for an hour. I have to take my IELTS sooner, bsh!

Ahh, I was hoping to watch this in KK since it's gonna be my term break. Now I have to blow a fortune to watch it here, when everyone's going home :(

  The school's having another trip to the Australian Zoo, meh, I'm not a big fan of animals and expensive price tags. A friend suggested to go to Dreamworld though, yayy :D

Scream and fun and more screaming

I conquered that thing! :D

  I went on a school trip to Movieworld yesterday and it was awesome! It took about an hour to get there from Brisbane city, by bus. Since it was a Saturday, there's no free loop bus thing thingy that takes me to school from the bus station, bsh, had to walk all the way uphill to the school. But mehh, never mind that. 

  So, we were at the entrance of Movieworld and we saw that super tall roller coaster, instantly stunned, it's like so tall. Ironic, we went into the park and it was the first thing we got on. I didn't even think I would dare to ride it, stunness. Screamed all the way up and all the way down. I could have lost my voice, but I didn't, hah. That's the only ride I got on, epic fail, but then I'd puke if I got on another ride anyway, haha, more fail. 

  Walked through the streets and I saw Tweety!! Aww man, Tweety only does shows, no photos, sadness. Hmmm, lots of shops, there was this Harry Potter shop, selling all those weird stuff and whatnot. Lots of awesome shirts in the other stores, which also had awesome price tags, which is not much to Aussies but A LOT TO ME. I watched the parade right before I left, pretty cool, haha. 

That's Alyssa! Super cute! And awesome blue eyes

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard - Pooh

Pooh is awesome, Movieworld should include Pooh. :(

Autumn?

14th of March! *fingers crossed*

  It's starting to get cold here since summer's over. Everything's so quiet at night, shops close at 5pm, early much, haha. Bsh, and it gets dark reallyy early, which is a bad thing. Get off the bus at 6.30pm and it looks like 8pm, scary. 

Adventure to Candied Island!

But like you totally like didn't like go to Bob's like tanning nose job like lipo and smoothie shop like totally - Chowder

Ahh, I want to watch Chowder! And Flapjack!

Youth in spirit

  I was sitting on my bed, thinking, today is a really cold day, even my room is cold. And then it hit me, I had left my window open, ahahaha, dum XD

  I 'attended' youth today, well, sort of. I was there, in iPad form. Haha. Sabina cheated ;) Hmm, there was this really nice verse:

With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse us human beings, who have been made in God's likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?

James 3:9-11 

   Haha, I have never quoted bible verses in my blog, awesome. 

  There was supposed to be this International Students welcoming thing today in town. And the procrastinator in me didn't want to go. So I stayed at home. Bsh, I had to vacuum my room though, ahhh. Darn financial constraint, bus fees make me want to stay home all the time, lulz.

I wish the bank would want a loan from me instead of the other way round. Haha.

VFD

Haha

  The weather forecast predicted rain for the next week, which is SEVEN DAYS OF RAIN. Now everyone is starting to worry about floods again, haha.

  On another happy note, I have conquered my fear of the house at the bend of the road, haha. Right, it all started with this scary dog that almost chased me, note almost. It was like huge and I'm pretty sure it could kill me. I was totally freaked out but yay, the owner called the dog and I get to keep my life :) Trauma, I never ever walked past that house again, EVER. Until yesterday. I was walking home and it was 7pm and it was horribly dark, superr scary plus it was raining, booyah. I was too darn lazy to make a huge detour to get past that house and I faced ma fearr! Funny, haha. I just hope I don't see that dog again, ever, especially if it's not on a leash and it's owner is not around. Mehh, the owner apologized to me, haha.

  Whee, I'm gonna go to Movieworld next saturday, awsm ;) I'll be the one standing near the super scary roller coasters helping my friends to take pictures and look after their bags, yay :)
