#304 - No more, no less

So today I feel quite happy =D
1. My short term memory prowess is perhaps my only good asset - currently very proud of my cramming skills of three sort-of essays in under two hours and remembering them extremely well! Today provided a nearly perfect exam I think and I was really pleased with it (: Hopefully my gut feeling is right otherwise I am going to be ridiculously devo over this.  But today was definitely a much better day than Friday when all I wanted to do was:

FLIP THE FLIPPIN' TABLE. Seriously, all I can say is da fuq! WHAT SORT OF QUESTIONS ARE THOSE ?!!! >:( My love for history is forever eroded!
2. THE END IS NEAR. Ahhhh all I need to do is overcome crappy Extension tomorrow  ==" gah I hate this! After a year I still have failed to understand an inkling of the wise epiphanies of historians and philosophy and the purpose of this course. It's all Greek to me. Urgh
3. Doing exams has made me realise how much I miss class. Regardless, I am going to be so happy that everything is finished tomorrow because......
4. YAY the post-trials period kicks in! Plenty of things to do.

Oh and I have jumped onto the online shopping bandwagon! Currently loving it though I am so distraught over shipping costs. SO EXPENSIVE TO SHIP TO AUSTRALIA! 10 or more dollars for 1 item? wtf modcloth :(

#303- Someone somewhere...



  • shares the same feelings as me

 please look at the top-rated comment and guess who that actor? IT'S MY SCHEDULER <333


  • has tickets to the AusOpen Men's final in the lower aisle. tickets that were sold out before I could even have access to them T_____________________T Unfortunately I have no one else to blame but myself seeing as I took too long to decide what membership option I should buy and by the time I made up my mind, the Match membership was already all sold out (FML)
  • HAS HORRIBLE SPELLING (x2) Story is I bought AusOpen tickets and left my email address because that's the fastest and cheapest way that you can receive your tickets. You're supposed to get them within 15min... I waited 2hrs....still nothing. I called them up and the guy said the person couldn't spell my email address and so he fixed it and so I waited for another 40min.... still nothing. Called them again for the 3rd time and finally the guy told me that the 2nd person added an extra letter = = and in the end I just had it sent to my 2nd email address and it was instantly in my inbox. Sigh all this stress the day before Phys T^T

#302 - DO.

Ah
---
 It's fruitless to know, but not know how to use the knowledge - something I discovered recently. And damn no matter how many times I tell myself how much I hate past me and engage in wishful thinking, that isn't going to get anywhere.
I can thereby only deduce:
do.
+ 
logic > anything.

Seriously full of self doubt.


and ....
on a chirper note, hbd to my dearest RW~!

#301- My Princess Diary moment

Remember that film with Anne Hathaway (yes before she was famous) and Julie Andrews?

If you do then remember that part where Mia gets a makeover, well today when I was brushing my hair I ended up snapping my comb single-handed. Yup I'm amazing.

That's all for today

#300 - She says

YAY - my first exam is over! Not looking forward to the crappy finishing times every day though - I have to wait 26 minutes to change trains. And.... I am so very bored of studying and all over the place; I work hard for one hour before I start playing a few games of Temple Run :( But in times like this, I can't help but say that "sleep is for the weak" - I couldn't even sleep because I keep thinking and can't empty my mind, and honestly, I don't think sleeping less has an adverse impact on me. Though I cannot wait until trials are over just so I have a fantastic sleep every day! :)

Also just discovered the joys of JJ Lin and "she says". Hence the eponymously titled blog post. Simply.... tear jerking / likely to incite a period of fangirlism ! - I heard a certain thing today, and wow, I am sort of... umf. I really hope it's not true and I don't want to judge without knowing all the facts. However I do know that if you wish to succeed, do it wholeheartedly and the right way - put in all your effort and don't use unethical means. Otherwise it is pointless and you only end up being untrue to yourself.

#299- Bittersweet Olympic moment

Overnight was the semis for mens and womens. Put simply Maria won so she's guranteed at least a silver but Nole lost so it's '08 dejavu.

That's it from me as I wallow in my self-pity, you see Paper 1 was horrible and this news was bittersweet. So go Maria for the finals and I hope that Nole gets the bronze as for the mens final I'm praying that Federer wins because a)He deserves to complete the Golden Slam and b)I don't like Andy Murray and I refuse to be bombarded with British media going on and on about him and his performance. It's basically the equivalence to Australia was our obsession (thank god I'm not) with James Magnussen

#298 - Panegyrize

01 / 08/ 12
A new word.
I disagree with the notion "there is no luck" - yes there is.  Now that's something I believe in!  
Today was quite a serene and nice last day. Thank you dear school for providing a FREE SAUSAGE SIZZLE....with the chance of seconds and thirds! And soft drinks. Though they ran out before I could get thirds... ): haha but I swear I can legit eat three servings :D
And I don't know why I was "so happy" today in the last period, especially seeing how I detest it so.... but yeah, being happy is the bombbbb. Is it even like me? Usually I would call myself cynical...but sometimes there are moments where I just find joy in the little things (excluding pimples, which I seem to be suffering from...-_-). Like le train adventures with my hubs J (who requested I blog about this) hahaha. A plethora of good times - being downright embarrassing whilst experiencing a whole lot of fun -> ugly "wtf are they doing" looks from people. Ah that reminds me I am an absolute embarrassment on public transport (perhaps it's just me who thinks this): I have almost tripped ungracefully down the stairs, got my bag stuck in the door twice during peak hour, and have people tell me my bag was full on open -_- Anyway, a key example of the stuff we do  with people facing us (:

ahhh look at the attractiveness and my barely existent eyes!
I also popped by AusPost and ...finally and spontaneously bought the elusive Load & Go card! ONLINE SHOPPING WITH NO RIPPED OFF DOMESTIC PRICES? HELL YEAH. But after trials =D Now to face the wrath of my mother, oh noes and ... trials. Uhhhh, I sense there is much cramming to be done

31 / 07/ 12
Didn't go to school today heheheh. And honestly I think I was so counterproductive - I didn't achieve much except have a well deserved 11 hour sleep, pig out and.....look for formal dresses! MI AMOR, MODCLOTH. The styles. I do adore. Unlike when I looked in domestic mainstream stores - I was not in any way impressed by the dresses - shit quality, extremely elevated unworthy prices, unsightly styles..... I shall shudder.


I've never understood this concept either. Or when people mistakenly say "should of" instead of "should have" and can't differentiate between "its" and "it's".
Oh my gosh, two of my fave Asians - HSJ & CC
