I am so LAZYYYY

Hi. I am sooooooooo bored. I probs have a lot to do, but I somehow end up playing game after game of word search, 7 little words, bejeweled, unblock me, reversi, etc. Yeh. And I kinda have no reason to go on the comp anymore. Nothing to do on Facebook - established that a months ago. Just not bothered with blogger anymore. Getting kinda sick of YouTube. Songs all sound similar. Hotmail account died. Msn doesn't work. No one on Skype. Novels have either been read or are too boring to read. Have no dramas to watch because I find things too cheesy/cliched/perfect/stupid/unrealistic/fake. Anime is getting boring too. Too hot or too rainy for photography. Everyday feels like a repeat of boredom.......... This is my holiday. Where have those wonderful days gone? Those time when you felt like you were living a dream during school breaks... Sigh. Growing up ruins everything.......

Well, I'm looking forward to my trip in a week. I haven't been down to Melbourne in a few years and I'm really excited to see my cutie-pie cousin ^^ Oh, and there's is so much shopping to be done there and in Adelaide. Oh, on my to do list, visit the Penrice Solvay Plant. Lol. I know it sounds like I'm bringing school to my holiday, but it's near the beach and stuff. And it's also a photo op ;) I just realised that although I'm being all pumped up about the trip now, I'll most likely being making comments about how boring it is when I'm over there. Hahas. Yeh... Well, I'm kinda sleepy now. Think I'll go flop on my bed.

Night!

Two days before Christmas.

Christmas is so close!! Well, I don't know about you guys, but I had a pretty awesome day today. So full though... I don't remember the last time I was this fat..... I swear it looks like I have a baby bump ==" And to be prefectly blunt, it does NOT look flattering. Well, sorry to disappoint guys, but the short update is all you're getting since I have nothing interesting in my life going on at the moment to tell you ;) And to be frank, I don't feel like broadcasting every detail of my life. If you must know, you can waste your credit and text/call me. Lol, that should put you off ;P

Hey guys, if you want to read the whole post, you'll have to click on the stupid 'Reed more' button...

Well, I haven't posted in long long time, have I? Guess what? It's almost the end of the term!!! ^^ I am so excited. There's so much I'm looking forward to. It's gunna be so awesome. Gotta have as much fun as I can this holiday before year 11 starts and then it's all work and no play ;) Time to embrace summer with activities like swimming, cycling, walking, taking a lot a lot of photos, and having fun. I think you get my point about having a very fun break from school.

Wow, one year has gone by so quickly. Unbelieveable. You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! ^^ Yesh, that's right. Time to get into the Christmas spirit guys. Thinking back, Christmas really did seem like a magical time of the year when I was little. But now, well it's still pretty special. Just not what it used to be. Well, things change - all I can say.

Drama time!! Omg, Forensic Heroes!! ^^ Sooooooo good. Just finished watching it. I really hope there's another series. Really really really want there to be another series. Bad news is that I don't have another drama to watch.... Tried to watch Tokyo Juliet, but it's kinda boring.... Plus the video quality isn't that great. Gotta find a good drama to watch.. Any suggestions guys?

Was going to write about last week when my family went to Floriade but can't be bothered anymore.

I swear J is right about me having child dimentia. I'm forgetting things so much these days. Well I've always had an, at times, okay memory. But now that I think about it, it seems like it's getting worse. I can barely remember being in science 3 last year. Can only remember little snippets here and there. Can you name all the people in your year 6 class?? I can't. Can you name all the people in your year 8 VA class? I can't. Can you remember the second verse of the national anthem? I am sad to admit this, but I can't. Wells, enought about that.

Daylight saving is screwing me over. First I get less sleep and wake up with the sun already high in the sky. Then the sun just seems like it loves me too much to go away. I know I know. I'm pretty awesome, and I can see why even something as great as the sun doesn't want to leave my side. Lol. Okay. Seriously, though. I'm getting so confuzzled about the time. Like right now, it's around seven and the sun is still pretty high for this time of night. It's great that there's more sunshine though. I feel so alive!! Lol. It seems like there's so much more time to do things. Though technically, it's the same..

So a few days ago, I started watching Ouran HS Host Club. The drama version. Watched the anime before and thought it was okay. I was curious about how they'd portray the characters in a drama so I watched it. Then I realised that the series isn't complete yet. So I wasn't bothered waiting for the next one to come out so I can continue. Yeh, I give up on dramas if I have to wait for them to come out. Unless it's super super super epic. So then I started watching Dream High. Watched the first ep and thought it seemed pretty good. So I decided that I'd continue watching it. Haven't watched it since then, lol. After watching the first ep, I randomly decided to read through the drama ranking and then came across Nodame Cantabile. Yeh, I kinda got addicted to that one. It's so funny and the things the characters do are so stupid. But yeh, I like that one. It's definitely up there amongst my favourites. Omg, the musicians are sooooooooo good. If only I had half the skills they do. But yeh, it's really good. If you want a good laugh, I'd definitely recommend it.

Holidays were kinda ruined by home work and commerce assigment. I know I said I was going to read To Kill a Mockingbird. But somehow, it completely slipped my mind. I wonder what I was doing.. Can't imagine what could've kept me from doing this... Yeh, was watching Nodame Cantabile while working on commerce assignment. I told myself I was going to start the assignment during the last week of school last term. Never did. However, I did finish it on time. And I didn't have to stay up late to finish it ^^ Yay me!

Noooooooooooooooo!!!! School tomorrow. Two weeks of holidays always go by so fast... I wanna sleep in more... I wanna stay up late more... I wanna drama more.... I wanna be lazy more... Lol, I sound like such a couch potato. Nooooooo, don't wanna be a couch potato. Okay, well I'm also glad that holidays over. Time to welcome term four with a great big pedophilic smile!! Hahas. Time to get serious. Lol, jks. Time to enjoy the last term of year ten. Lots of things happening this term even though exams are over. We have SC, leadership camp, formal, year 11 and 12 courses begin, parties etc. Well, I'm looking forward to this term.

Omg, Moves Like Jagger has been stuck in my head for days!! Song on repeat all day long. Help?? It's so catchy and just makes you wanna get up and dance. Lol, I don't dance <--- Not a high school musical reference ;) Speaking of high school musical, I haven't seen it in aaages. Can't really remember the movies much. Can't really remember the song either. Though I do have to admit that there were some really pretty songs there. Don't understand why everyone keeps dissing it. It took time and effort to write the music and choreograph the dances. At least acknowledge that much if you're a hater.

A Feast for the Senses

Time for a family road trip!! ^^ Floriade 2011 here we come. Haven't been to Floriade in so long. Used to go almost every year. I still have so many photos from previous years. Can't wait to go this time. Mainly cos it's a great photo opportunity and it brings back great memories. Isn't Spring a wonderful time of the year?? Wells, the above is a photo taken from the officical website. It's a pic of one of the light displays that are on. Tomorrow's the last night of NightFest. Really wanna go but we can't stay that late... I guess there isn't really much I wanna do at NightFest besides looking at the lights and taking lots and lots of photos. And then it'd be a waste of money... Oh, maybe ride the ferris wheel and take in the night view of the place. Omg, the photos on the website look soooooooo good.. Well, it'd have to be a clear and warm night for the lights to look great. Apparently, there's this show where all the light displays are used to imitate rainfall. It's supposed to accompanied by thunder and all. I really wanna see it. It might not sound so great from what I'm saying. But if you take a look at the website, you'll know what I mean. They make it sound sooooooo good. Well, that's the whole point. But yeah.





#61 I love love love night views of lights and shizz. Only ever been on a ferris wheel once. And that was a small one during the day. Really wanna go on a big one at night and see the pretty lights..

Unplanned

I was planning to do a lot more than what I had actually got done today. I wanted to at least start on commerce, take some really good photos, practice piano for a good few hours, and possibly start a new drama. However, the day started with me waking up rather early and then going out to take photos. I kinda lost track of time and got a little too carried away with my camera. Spent two hours outside. Then procrastinated doing I don't know what (and I can't be bothered remembering).

Piano lesson got moved earlier just for today because my teacher had something going on. So I left my house at 5.30pm, thinking that if the traffic wasn't good, I'd have to wait ages just to cross it. Turned out the traffic was terrible, and I barely made it across the road alive!! Stupid speeding drivers.. I swear everyone road rages so much these days. Jeez, no need to piss yourself. Gosh, and they make it seem like it's my fault they almost ran over someone... Hahas. Well, when I got there eventually, I really thought I was late. But then I heard someone playing inside so I knew I wasn't. So I waited outside, thinking that they'd only be a while longer. I waited for 15mins... Turned out that the person before me was 25mins late for a 30min lesson... Yeh, wth right? Anyways, started learning a new piece today. Played it with my teacher and it sounded really good. Looking forward to learning the whole thing and being able to play it by myself.

Oh, changed my layout. Kinda got bored of the old one cos it was so grey and gloomy. Plus, it's Spring now, so something brighter should be used. Well, here it is.

Btw, does anyone use Skype?? I lost my old account and stopped using it a while ago. Made a new account today so if the people who do use Skype would be so kind as to provide me with the email that they're using. Thanks ^^ Okay, I doubt that many of you actually use it... Oh wells.

Oh, shall read To Kill a Mockingbird this holidays. I'm sure I'll find the time. Plus, it's a good book so I should have no problem with keeping my interest in it. I must also read the second book to Walking Chaos. Since I've only read about halfway into it and gave up because it's not in proper English. I think it's also because this one isn't as good as the first so... Yeh, I lose interest. But I shall strive to read it entirely and enjoy it.

Well, that's all I have to say today. Oh yeah, one more thing. M, can I pretty please come kidnap you from your cousin's place?? Pleeeeease?




#59 My first CD was Big Big World by Emilia. I apparently watched a TVB drama when I was little and fell in love with one of the songs in it. My aunty looked everywhere to find the CD for me ^^

Dj Kaori - Sayonara

Randomly came across this song. Thought it sounded pretty good so I thought I'd be nice and and share. Because sharing is caring. And I care about you guys, I think ;P Even though I know that none of you are actually going to be bothered to watch it. So you know what? I don't need you to care anyways XP I'm fine with not sharing :P Lol, jks. I love my crazy, goofy, stupid, gorgeous, weird, lame, socially challenged friends ;P


First actual day of the holidays. Haven't posted in a while. Haven't been on the comp for a while....

5cm per second: the speed at which cherry blossoms fall. That was my last post on my old blog, I think. Still stand by it though. It's sad that these things happen. It's sad when friends turn into strangers. When one day you could be inseparable. But then in time, start to fall out.

Time: the greatest theif. It changes things. Heals wounds. Tears people apart. Changes people.


I hate technology. I mean, don't get me wrong. Technologic advancement is great in the sense that it makes our live easier and everything so much more efficient. But it's killing us slowly. It's come to a point where we rely on technology to survive. Some people can't even be themselves unless they're on the computer. And that's the thing. It's sad to see that people can no longer maintain good conversations face to face. People begin to find it harder and harder to talk to people. People lost and confused, searching for their true identity. I don't like reading about a friend's life on the internet. I'm the kind of person who likes to have face to face conversations. Even if it is awkward. Talking face to face has a different feel, sincerity, and sense of connection to it. After all, talking is our way of communication and connection. A way to let others understand how we feel. This reminds me of primary school. When they taught us that communication was all about body language, facial expression and tone. That's how we express ourselves. None of this is captured through blogs and msn. And so people start misunderstanding each other. People lose their ability to communicate properly. Communication disintegrates. And we fall apart. It's such a shame. People falling out this way. It's definitely something one would never hope for.


Goal for holidays: take the opportunity that Spring has given me to explore my garden with my camera ^^ Haven't picked up my camera for a while. Maybe go out and take in the season. That is after I take Zyrtec... Wow, just realised how many times I said take... Actually, not that many times... Okay, silly me. Omg, I swear I'm gunna turn into a couch potato. I just spent yesterday and today sitting on the couch watching Live of Ommision and snacking like there was no tomorrow ==" Someone please help me!! Don't wanna die of diabetes or heart attack... Sorry V, I know we're diabetes buddies but I don't wanna die so soon ;)



She's walking in the dark - alone
She calls out into the abyss,
Nothing.
Her eyes fail her.
Her voice fades.
Each step she takes leads to nothingness.


The ground slips from beneath her
And she falls.
She's weightless.
Noone can save her; No one wants to.
Forever falling in a place with no time...

I Am Not A Pedo

My favourite scene in Rio (it's so cuute ^^):


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

So I had a rendezvous with just J yesterday because M's relatives are over from the US of A. And although be were one man down, we still had a pretty awesome time :) We went to the movies and watched Kungfu Panda 2. It was a lot better than I expected. I originally thought that the second movie was going to ruin my impression of the first, but it didn't. Really happy about that.

So my day didn't hit off with a good start. I had to wake up at the earliest time I had woken up this holidays to go out at the same time as my mum. Then, I felt sick. Sat in the waiting room at my mum's work for a bit and realised my phone battery was at thirty percent, so I had to turned the back light down to save power. And for the rest of the day, I had to put my phone really close to my face to see the time. I waited until 8.50 and then headed down the street towards the station cos J didn't know the way to Westfields.

We had breakky at Muffin Break. Double Choc for J and Apple and Cinnamon for me ^^ Took a while for me to finish the muffin which in the end, J had to help me finish. Ty, J :) Shopping time!! Then bought Gumballs and Easyway and brought them into the cinemas to eat. Very asian thing to do. So there we were with our skewers and milk teas watching a very asian movie about a fat panda doing kungfu. It was a bad idea for J to let me sit beside the little kid. He was soooo cute ^^ I think I was paying a little too much attention to the little boy and not enough on what was happening on screen. The movie was good, so I don't know why the boy's father took the little boy and left before the movie finished. It wasn't like there was a pedo staring at the kid from a distance of less than one meter... Really, can't imagine why they left. Okay, in all seriousness, I had nothing to do with them leaving. And when the movie finally did finish, more shopping. This time, we went along the street outside and basically entered any store that seemed interesting. Oh, we didn't go into the expensive stores or the restaurants ;)

There's only one more day of holidays left. NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I want more holidays!! Holidays should be longer. More time to sleeeeeeeeep ^^ Oh, sleep. Oh, how I love sleep. I do love my sleep very much. Sleep could compete with Rawrr ;P Hahas, just saying. Ewww, there's school in two days... Don't wanna go back to school. Back to waking up early. Back to catching the train and walking in the cold. Back to wearing uniforms. Back to crowded trains. And back to being suffocated by smokers. So not looking forward to that...

New Love

So whilst in China and HK, I found love. Sorry, Rawrr...

..but Haagen-Dazs ice cream is just too good :P

There are no Haagen-Dazs shops in AUSTRALIA! D= That's right. Disappointment T^T Ate so much ice cream over there; I'm so FATTT :( But yeh, the ice cream is sooooo good... Loved it so much that I joined the fb page aiming to bring Haagen-Dazs to Aussie :) M suggested writing an email to the company about opening a shop in Sydney. That'd be awesome if there was one. Omg, I'm going on about an ice cream brand.... I'm such a fatty, lol.

Hahas, I'm procrastinating right now. Should be doing tutor hw but I have multiple windows open and have the TV showing the Royal Wedding, LOL. Looking through photos of my trip. Didn't think it was possible to look so retarded in so many photos... T^T Okays, gunna try and do some work now.

Never Judge A Girl By Her Clothes

So I was going to write more about my trip but I really can't be bothered anymore. Instead, I would like to remind some people (hint hint) that I was NOT pedo-ing during my stay in China and Hong Kong. It was simple observations that I made :P Oh, I didn't finish telling my story before Jap class. Do remind me to finish because it really isn't something you see everyday. Well, maybe in China, but DEFINITELY NOT in Australia.

Okay, now on to a slightly different topic: Glasses look good on SOME guys. Emphasis on the 'some'. So don't every guy go out and buy a pair of plastic glasses, put them on, go walking on the streets and expect to pick up girls. It doesn't work that way. Just pointing that out because it seemed to me that Hong Kong guys think that way. Obviously not every guy, but from my short time there, it seemed like most guys did. Yes, glasses are so in right now and do look good on, again, SOME guys. We all know you want to look good, but the fact is, glasses can give the opposite effect. And as witnessed by me, a guy can get a rejection from a girl because she claims that by wearing glasses which you don't need is like pretending to be someone you're not. And what a girl wants is to know you for who you really are. I think that was pretty well said. So, to all guys out there, do make an attempt to look good, but don't stress and try too hard ;)

BACK TO CIVILISATION AT LAST!

Well, technically, I was back to civilisation when the plane landed in HK, BUT I would like to think that Australia is better (although their transport system is waayyyyyyyyyyyyy more efficient). Anywho, let me just say that I just experienced both the worst and most amazing time overseas.

Good thing number one: cheap - that's all I have to say
Good thing number two: witnessing some of the most beautiful scenery in China (eg. Huangshan)
Good thing number three: taking a break
Good thing number four: spending time with family
Good thing number five: was in a different city every day (stayed in some really nice hotels)

Bad thing number one: toilets in China are a hole - I need not say more
Bad thing number two: people spit and smoke EVERYWHERE
Bad thing number three: sleeping on the old and creepy train
Bad thing number four: did I mention the toilets?
Bad thing number five: was in a different city every day (really tiring)
Bad thing number six: spent every moment missing someone and being homesick :(
Bad thing number seven: ...

THIS.
ONE.
IS.
VERY.
IMPORTANT...

>>> Didn't have enough time to shop!

Yup, that's right. If you read that carefully, it could've translated to "NO SOUVENIRS" :P Haha, I'll leave you guys to think about that while I catch up on some rest because I didn't sleep well on the flight home and still feel slightly sick.

Bad Dream..

Haven't posted in a while. So on the request of J, here it is. The holidays have started!!!!!! So excited about China. Can't wait to see all the photo opportunities. And try all the really good foods. And shop in Hong Kong. And ride the bullet train across scenic landscapes. Just thinking about it - yeh, just excited in general.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

Went shopping with my mum yesterday. Haven't been in AAAAAAAAAAAGES. Bought a new case for the craptop. Walked for 5+ hours. Sooooo tired. But besides that, it was a great day. It really reminded me of when I was a kid. See, my mum used to work in the city. And on Saturdays, her work finished at noon. So I used to take the train with her early in the morning to the city. She'd buy me congee for breakky and then she'd take me to her workplace where I sat in the counter corner playing on the computer, or sometimes helped out by putting labels on envelopes. When she finished work, we went to eat lunch. We'd either eat at Market City's food court or eat at a little Japanese restaurant. That was when she first took me to the little Japanese restaurant where the takoyaki is still the best ^^ I think this was when I first fell in love with Jap food. Then we'd get dessert at Gelatissimo - I'd always get chocolate, mango or tiramisu. After that, shopping. We'd walk all over the city. And I'd ALWAYS complain about being tired walking up hill. When my mum tried on shoes, I'd always find a seat and wait. Yesterday, I complained about walking up hill. We shared BBQ pork and rice at Market City. Drank blended ice - Mum complained about it being too sweet (just like she used to). I sat in a chair while she tried on shoes. Then Dad would call and we'd go home. Yesterday was one of the best days I've had for a long time. Not because we bought a lot (because we didn't). Or simply because we went shopping. But because it all reminded me of the time when everything was simpler, and in some ways better. Anyways, time for me to stop reminiscing.

Although I slept well last night, I had a bad dream. It was a stupid dream really. Don't really rememebr it clearly, though... Oh wells.

Hard to speak

Literally, hard to speak because my tongue hurts; so bad it's hard to eat. Tried using salt water to disinfect and it just stung like hell..

There are a lot of things I'd like to say but it's hard to speak my mind. Why? Because it feels like I'm just being nosy? Because I'm afraid of hurting them? Because I don't know what to say? Because I'm afraid of the truth? Because it means that I'll be acting like a b!tch?

Raging. Questioning. Understanding. Rejecting. Apologising. Boy, would I like to give some people a piece of my mind...but that's not going to happen any time soon. I just don't have the strength.

"Let's try take it back before it all went wrong.." Wouldn't we all like that?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

ONE MORE WEEK! Time is going by so fast. It's already the end of term 1 and the first school break is here. I'm excited about it but not at the same time. Why do we have to get work to do over the holidays? The point of having a break is to have a BREAK from school work. Why do teachers aim to ruin our holidays this way?

HOT

IT IS TOO HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is the hottest week in Sydney this week, and I'm really feeling it. I'm practically melting away...not really. It's just really hot and I can't stop complaining about it. School started two days ago and I'm already sick of it. The pressure from all the teachers to do well in the SC is simply too great. But I'll try my best. Oh right, my computer died and I didn't get to finish watching Romantic Princess. I'm well past halfway and almost finished so I don't think I'm going to finish it once my computer is fixed. Today is Chinese New Years' Eve. My extended family are coming over in a couple of hours to celebrate this festive night. Meaniemooo came up with an idea of having a Chinese New Year Lunch. Don't know if that's going to happen but it might be fun.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
26th January: AUSTRALIA DAY
My family and my cousins' family had a great day at a beach near Cronulla. We were invited by my dad's friend. Mum, Dad and I woke up at 6 to make all the kimbap and we headed out at 10:30-ish. By the time we got there, the parking spaces were completely full and our destination was changed. At the original place, there's a lagoon and more inland, a sand dune and you can sandboard. I was particularly looking forward to that, but we DIDN'T go there =='. However, the second place was pretty cool too. The water was SOOOOOOOOOO clear. There was also a lagoon-like area, and in the other direction were rocks and cliffs.

For lunch, we had a BBQ, seafood, kimbap, and a lot of fruit. After that, my cousins and I built a sand castle, though it didn;t look like much. After that, my dad took us rock climbing. It was pretty cool. We saw a lot of crabs along the way as well. While rock climbing, I was very conscious of the rock beneath me and the waves that kept crashing against the rocks. While it was low tide, my dad led us inside a small cave where there were a lot of small fish, a few blue bottles and a lot of crabs. The water reached just above my ankles there. Then it was time to scale the rocks to witness a great view.

My dad's friend brought his jet-ski which I really wanted to have a go on but I wasn't old enough :( I took a lot of photos that day but they probably won't be up until next month because my computer has died. This is about all I have to say about that day. There's a lot more that happened but that's the basic idea :)

So, after two posts of Her Story, I have come to an easy decision to stop writing it. Yes, after only two posts. I just seriously can't be bothered anymore. -CASE CLOSED-

The End.

Just finished watching Hi My Sweetheart. This drama made me cry so many times that my eyes and nose hurt. I hate how Bo Jie is so against Xue Hai and Bao Zhu's relationship. I called out b*tch so many times while watching this. Oh, I didn't really like Mei Jian: she was soooooo annoying. It just pissed me off when she told Bao Zhu to get lost because Da Lang (Xue Hai) didn't love her anymore. The smartest thing she said/did was probably telling Xue Hai that she gives her blessings to Bao Zhu and him. I laughed so hard when Bao Zhu was getting revenge on Xue Hai. He was so stupid thinking of that stupid idea to pretend that he forgot who she was. Oh, and what kind of a cliff was that at the kidnapping? It was a small hill, that's what it was. It seriously looked almost like flat ground. And what the hell was with Bo Jie's bf? He's such a effing b*stard. That's when I felt a little bad for Bo Jie. Although I am a little frustrated that Xue Hai kept the mushroom haircut for the wedding, the ending was great! Lol at all the objections.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

It's almost the end of the holidays. NOOOOOOO!!!! It saddens me to realise that the end of summer vacation is drawing nearer and nearer. Only about one week left. Part of me wants to go to school, but a slightly bigger part wants the holidays to continue for another month or so. Too bad that's not going to happen. I shall start to get ready for school starting on Monday, hopefully.

Ngawww

Just finished watching Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. It was very entertaining. Even though my mum says the guys look girly, I think they look really hot. I just love watching romance/slice of life. There were so many "ngaw" moments eg. when Kyouhei crashes Sunako's wedding and takes her away, when Ranmaru finally decides to go serious with Tamao, when Yukinojo and his girlfriend fixes up their misunderstanding, when Kyouhei is sleeping on Sunako's lap, and all those times when Kyouhei unexpectedly hugs Sunako from behind, etc. I loved Sunako and Kyouhei; they make such a cute couple. Especially loved the ending. Their kiss -- so sweeeet! Whoever thought of it was a genius! So glad they got together in the end because it was so obvious that he liked her (like when he was jealous of Hiroshi, an anatomical figure that Sunako loves). Then there was when Kyouhei finally admitted his feelings. Again, it was genius how they came up with the whole nightmare of Sunako getting shot in the head, and then recreating the scene so that Kyouhei would realise that he loves Sunako. Pure cliched genius. I really enjoyed watching the drama :)

Yesterday, my whole family drove to Woolongong. We visited the temple and took many wonderful photos. The weather was absolutely beautiful, at first. After lunch and ice cream, the clouds began to gather as the temperature remained warm. We then made our way to Kiama and walked to the blowhole.

While we were driving, the wind picked up and it began to sprinkle, but we still went outside. At first, the wind was icy cold because I was only wearing a tee and shorts but luckily, Aunty L had like four jackets in her car. When we walked up to the blowhole, it was somehow warmer there even though it was closer to the sea. Making our way down the rocks, it got warmer and less windy. The sea breeze was refreshing as we sat on the rocks and searched for yabbies and other sea creatures.

After a while, we left and retreated to our cars. It was around 5 at the time and the roads were completely conjested. During the time E and I were sleeping, we hardly made any progress home. 45 minutes had gone by and we were only back at Woolongong. Since we had woken up and it was getting late anyways, we had dinner at Maccas.

After that, we prepared for a long ride home. Mum wanted to take the scenic route home but we couldn't find the way so we ended up taking the mountain route. It began to rain as we made our way up the foot of the mountain, however, as we drove higher, a fog appeared and simply lengthened our ride home as we drove very cautiously. I had never seen fog so thick in my relatively short life! We could hardly see the car in front of us! The fog cleared up eventually and were able to drive faster.

All in all, it was an enjoyable outing with my family. It was nice :)

Boxing Day

Christmas is over but it still doesn't feel like it's the end of the year. It didn't even feel like we were having a Christmas dinner last night. It seemed more like a normal family gathering. Maybe it's just me. Maybe it's because this year simply went by too fast. Maybe too much happened. Anyhow, a new year is drawing closer and I will try to spend the rest of 2010 with a smile.

Just finished watching Hana Kimi. It is sooooooooooo funny. It's so annoying how my computer blocks the videos. I had to search everywhere to find episode 11. In the end, I had to watch different parts of it on different websites. Oh, Kagurazaka is so hot. Is it because he's an Eurasian? And Sano and Nakatsu are so cute. Especially when they're competing for Mizuki's love. And there's the part where they had the "90 stages show down" -- that was epic! Oh yeah, laughed so hard when they had a maid cafe and Sano ended up being Kagurazaka's 'maid'. Personally, I thought the ending was a bit boring. It was sad, but very plain. They should make a second season to continue the story. But then that might ruin the first one. So on second thought, just the first season would do.

Her Story #2

Last year is over and a new year is finally here. A fresh new beginning with a new class. New people to meet. New friends. Everything is going to be completely different this year, I think. The train curves into Granville and opens its doors.

"Good morning, Sam! How was your holidays?" a girl with painful sunburn chimes.

"Alright," I tell her with a smile. "Someone obviously spent too much time in the sun." Melissa gives a glare and dances to the center of the carraige, then says with a look of excitement, "Ready for another year of high school drama?"

"Sure. Totally up for that," I say with a roll of my eyes.

"O, come on. This year is going to be completely different. We're going to have so much more fun!"

"Sure hope so."

"Trust me, it will be. We get to have more excursions, pick sports and even get to join clubs. There's also the swimming and athletics carnival to look forward to. And then, later in the year, we get to pick our electives for next year. Oh, not to mention the trip to Jamberoo at the end of the year."

"Okay, you win," I laugh. Melissa punches her fist in the air and lets out a satisfying Yes! "I wonder if we'll be in the same class again." I shrug. For the next ten minutes, Mel recounts her holiday adventure in New Zealand. "...but it seriously scarred me for life!" she concludes. "Sounds like fun," I tease as Jenny, Lina and Vicky board the train.

"What sounds like fun?" Lina asks with a grin and a wink.

"It's not what she thinks, right?" Jen laughs as she directs her question at Mel. While the main character retells her story, I lose myself in the warmth of the Summer sky, and can't help wondering who'll be in my class this year.

**********

T. I'm in class 8T this year. So, I'm in the same class as Jenny, Alice and Catherine. I run my index finger down the list of my classmates and read the unfamiliar names of my 'family' for this year. A name catches my attention.


"Ugh, stupid key. I'm gunna be late for sure," I muttered to myself as I gave my locker key a hard yank. No good. "What should I do?" I stood there looking at my locker and began to panic. A hand suddenly reached out from behind me and rested on my locker, slightly surprising me. When I turned around to face whoever it was, a boy I had never met leaned in closer. I shuffled backwards until my back was against my locker. I blinked. He smiled and spoke in a low voice, "Need help with that?" I nodded as he straighten up and signaled for me to get out of the way. He stepped back, took a breath, gave my locker a solid kick, and pulled out the key.

"Thanks," I murmured.

"No problem."

We stood there for a moment, until I suddenly realised that I was late for class! I quickly gathered my stuff, thanked the guy again and left.


So we're in the same class this year, I think. Remembering how embarrassing it was, I smile. "Samantha, what are you smiling at?" Vicky frowns. I snap out of my thoughts and reply too quickly, "Nothing."

"So you just randomly smiled at nothing?"

"Yeah."

"Fine, be like that." She sticks her tongue out and we skip back to the others to find out what class they're in. Melissa tells me that her and Wendy are in the same class, and I find out that Lina, Kara, Vicky and Elenor are all in 8F. I'm starting to think that this year really won't be that bad. Caught in the discussion of class placements, the bell rings too soon. "Time to go to class!" Melissa sings a overexcitedly. We all grab our bags and head to our first lesson of the year, Maths. Jen and I slowly walk to our designated classroom and when we reach our class, Alice and Catherine are aready seated. I follow Jenny inside, and look around the room to take in the new surroundings. Then, I see him. Alex Li.

...to be continued :)
