Post no:#901

Been spending almost all my time on campus, revising for the EOS examinations.

Already finished revision for BIOL1028, and would just need to look at the again prolly about a day before the paper itself to refresh my memory. Working on locomotion now, origins and insertions of muscles are such a pain. >.>

Thanks to Phoenix, I have been pretty motivated to study. Not that he did anything, just simply being my quiet "study buddy" is enough, cause I study better when there's someone else studying with me that doesn't try to talk or sing or distract me in anyway.

So yea, spent almost an average of 7 hours a day studying in BSL since Monday, then dinner then home for more revision. If I still freaking fail after all this mugging, I will probably just go into depression and switch courses or something. Haiz

ANYWAYS. We headed down to the city for dinner and Starbucks session just earlier tonight, been freaking ages since I last went to the city for dinner or anything else. Went to Madtongsan 1 for dinner cause I haven't had Korean food in AGES and was craving for it. XD Chilled for abit at Starbucks, then he waited for me to catch the bus before heading back to Sunnybank himself. Crazily nice guy~

Might go on a road trip to Cairns with him, Reiko and Reiko's friend, but I am not sure yet. The itinerary looks pretty cool, but I still ain't comfortable with having to stay in backpacking hostels...=.=" We will see~ And it kinda clashes with my birthday too.

-------------------------------------------

Took a break and read Yahoo TW's knowledge+ groups' essays.
And I quote:
"愛一個人只要靜靜的在他身邊陪伴著他,一丁點都不要佔有,才能夠長長久久的擁有他。"

It's from a 'short-story' called 命運捉弄人, that has 4 parts to it. Check it out:
命運捉弄人 1
命運捉弄人 2
命運捉弄人 3
命運捉弄人 4

I don't even know why I am updating the blog. Am feeling a little down...and confused.
You prolly can tell I am not using any effort to update at all.
BLAH
------------------------------------------

And something I am gonna adapt from Yonnie's facebook~
Friend A: "Why do you still love someone that doesn't love you back!?? There are so many more fishes in the sea!"
Friend B: "Just because it's also water, would you drink from the sea?"

And I say..."Exactly!"

900th post! And it won't even be a proper update.

You know what?
I prefer to keep some special friends that way, special...
I don't need or want all of my friends to know each other
I'd rather not all of them were friends with each other
Maybe it's selfish, I know it probably is...
But I just don't want to have no one to go to when I wanna escape from some friends.

It's selfish, but I just don't want my special friends that I normally keep to myself to suddenly know everyone I know and become friends with everyone.
Probably cause I am paranoid. But that's just me.
If I met that friend in, say... a group then I am fine with that. But if I normally hang out with that person alone, I'd rather keep it that way.

And I don't get why girls must all go "OMG!!!! You like him don't you!??!" just cause I started spending more time with a guy. Or they'd go "OMG, he likes youuuu!!!!" just cause the guy's nice or have dinner with me.
Like...WTF? It's just a friend? Guys and girls can be JUST FRIENDS you know? It is actually possible to be simply friends with no romantic feelings involved at any stage whatsoever, and I would know.

IT annoys me when people assume that I am suddenly "involved" with someone just cause I am suddenly hanging out with someone that I never mention. What?! You think it's like a secret relationship? 0.o"...Must be damn stupid. If it was that easy for me to be involved in someone, you think I'd be single since...forever?

Just cause someone is nice to you doesn't mean that like you THAT way. It could be their nature, it could be cause you have something they can use (aka making use of you), it could be cause he was brought up that way, it could be a million other reasons.

And I don't like introducing my "hot" guy friends (if any) to my girl friends (if any) or vice versa cause they'd keep asking "Hey, where's that so-and-so hot person last time??" etc. Mad annoying...I am not a matchmaker...

BLAH.

Is it that hard to have someone to call your own?
Doesn't even have to be a boyfriend, just a friend!

how to fight loneliness by *hotburrito2 on deviantART

*Photo: A single person bobbing in the vast ocean*

So...How do you fight loneliness?

Sick of my current life
Or the lack of it.

Sick of being ignored and alone,
to the extent of being amazingly happy when someone just talks to me,
even if it's just for a second.

It's almost my 900th post!!! Time to celebrate!
Sick of feeling negative,
demoralised,
lonely,
sad...

The poolside's my friend.
It's peaceful there...


Life is beautiful?

Yep, just blogged a proper post that's below this one.

JOKE POST~ XD

In chinese, found it on Yahoo TW knowledge+~
15,16,17 and 19 are my favourites. XD XD

我的媽呀,快把我笑死了~~
小學生造句
這些造句都是小學生造的

轉自於PTT的實習教師版(studyteacher)
原作BY雅婷

1.沒有...沒有...更沒有...
學校裡沒有流浪貓...沒有流浪狗..更沒有流浪的人...
(你老師我正是流浪教師啊...改到時有點偷偷笑了一下.........)

2.不如
暴力傾向版-- 你不如去死!!!

3.一...就....
一隻娃娃就要一百塊
(學生在教室上社會課,我在後面笑到不行..一整個orz)

4.一時
爸爸半夜一時0分時竟然還在喝酒。
(評:不錯 還會畫句點)
一時想不通,開車去撞牆。
(評:應該是想不開吧)

5.一...先....
一馬當先
(真是傻眼 @@)

6.你看
一年級小朋友造:你看什麼看 ! 沒看過啊!

7.突飛猛進
當我回家打開門時,我家的狗對我突飛猛進。

8.照樣造句
例題:你(唱歌) 我(跳舞)
學生:你(好嗎) 我(很好)
(OS:你在寫英文翻譯嗎??)

9.寫出跟數字有關的成語
例如:一心一意 七上八下
結果有個小朋友寫:四蛇五路
剛開始完全看不懂,後來才發現
原來是四捨五入阿= =
小朋友...這不是成語,而且跟蛇和路也沒關係

10.永遠...永遠...不曾...
小朋友: 媽媽那麼愛我 ,爸爸也很愛我,他們對我的愛永遠永遠不曾改變.
(呀他中間的...當沒看見就是了)

11.欣欣向榮-比喻生長美好的樣子.
小朋友:我的弟弟長得欣欣向榮.
(評:孩子你弟弟是植物人嗎...)

12.謝謝....因為......
小三的男生:我要謝謝媽媽,因為她每天都幫我寫作業......
(露餡了...原來你的作業是媽媽寫的!!!!!!!)
說不定這一句是他媽媽造的Orz

13.皮開肉綻
學生:停電的夜晚,到處很黑,我嚇得皮開肉綻!
(O.S:這……有這麼怕嗎?)

14.一....就....
小朋友:她一接到電話就昏倒了。
(現在的小孩也看瓊瑤嗎?)

15.有的被...有的被...都.....
小朋友:農場裡的雞有的被抓去做雞精,有的被拿去煮雞湯,最後他們都死了。

16.一乾二淨
很乖的小二女生:我把銀行搶得一乾二淨

17.照樣造句
別人都誇我( ),其實我( )
別人都誇我( 很帥 ),其實我( 是戴面具的 )
(評:什麼面具這麼好用???)
別人都誇我( 長得很奇怪 ),其實我(根本不是長這樣)

18.成語填空
有志者( )….照理說是填(事竟成)
結果他給我填(是進城)
我差點沒把剛喝下去的水噴出來

19.[ 能...真是...]--- 正確:能認識你這個朋友,真是我的榮幸。
小朋友造的:小明能長這麼醜,真是他媽媽的錯。
(OS:小明好可憐,常在他的造句裡當悲情人物.......)

20.課本原句大概是:我是 (小鳥 ),想要(飛到天空)
結果小朋友造:我是( 小偷 ),想要( 偷錢 )
他大概想錢想很久了吧= =

BLAH!!
So many things to update on. Start with VET BALL~~~~

So, vet ball, was at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre! We managed to get the Terrace room, which sadly didn't have a view of the river...XD

Anyways, PHOTOS! Well, they ARE up on FB, but just to make this post less wordy~

The 'freakishly' tall Stevo! *Beer sucked, the rum and coke was loads better but costed $7...* I am 174cm and only up to his shoulders or something. 0.0

Mary-Kate and Me~

Ex-Year rep Sarah! (I think she's like super pretty~) and Claire Madden~

Introducing, the emo-Katey~ XD And her bf Andrew in the background...*nom nom nom*

Nanano, Amy and Michelle!!! =D

Very pretty Jiah~ and a very happy Laura that's half cut off~ XD

Freaky boy Angus~ He straightened his freaking hair! And his outfit was like the most "special" one that night. XD, pink BOW TIE~


We got a 2 course meal, a main and a dessert with free flow wine, beer and champange~ The drinks were pretty shit, I mostly drank water. =D

The food was sooooo good though! We didn't get a choice, they just set the food down in front of us and we just ate it or swapped with someone else if we got what each other wanted. I got the steak and it was mad yummy, Katey had the chicken which was pretty good too.

Desserts were either a creme brulee cake thingy that tasted and looked very much like a very rich brownie or a sticky date pudding with ice cream. The sticky date pudding was much much better, but that's what Katey got...T.T...LOL

Then Cathy got abit crazy with Mary Kate~

=O!
Happy Michelle!
Nanano pointing at Michael Noad "Noady" our loco lecturer~

Sarah "Sez" again~ She's so PRETTY~

So yea, at the end of the ball there was a after party, AKA Kick-On at The Fox Bar. XD, Katey, Andrew, Stevo and I were still mingling in the ballroom with a few others then this security fella came up behind us and said "Yea, finish your drinks and head on to The Fox now~" and I didn't noticed him, but the others were abit 'high' and just looked at him, then he went mad and screamed "LOOK, I just told you to finish your drinks and get outta here, I am not F***-ing AROUND WITH YOU people!" and we all got a shock then he like left angrily.

0.o"...Crazy security fella, and Andrew reckons he's either being paid like $10 an hour after 10 or doesn't get paid after 11...xD. Which is prolly true.

Walked to The Fox but couldn't get in cause I forgot my ID and only had my student card...=.="...The others tried to banter with the bouncer but I didn't wanna piss him off so I left. Tried to get Joe to pick me up from the city, cause it was like 11.20 or something and I didn't bring my Go-Card (ezlink) so I didn't want to catch a bus...Caught a cab instead cause Joe said he was gonna sleep. >.>...

--------------------------------------

Had horsey handling prac at Gatton yesterday. Was mega boring cause it was pretty much what we did for the horse handling prac in Vet Tech last year. >.>... Sheep handling was loads more fun, got to wrestle and throw sheep and push them down a slide. XD

Got so tanned from sheep and horse pracs at Gatton cause were we out in the sun the whole day, and the only reason I could tell was that there is this white band of flesh around my finger where my ring is, and that the white band of flesh where I have my watch suddenly got paler, or the surrounding skin got darker. =.="...Like 2 shades darker now.

Then cause I wore a cap and shades, my face is like paler ontop and like darker after the bottom of the nose~ =.="...Looks like some gradient shading or something. Blah~

----------------------------------------

Went out with Vanessa and Jess today cause I wanted to eat cake. All thanks to that anime, Yumeiro Patissiere. XD, the cakes in that anime look mega-yums!

Had lunch at Ajisen!!! Then I tagged along with them while they shopped in the city for a bit, then we headed to Le Bon Choix Bakery (click for linky) that's at 397 Queen Street. Had 2 mini cakes each cause they all looked really good, then we tookaway 2 mini cakes each as well! XD...I also bough a Ciabatta loaf from them and it's already 3/4 gone cause I just have it with abit of butter for dinner.

PHOTOS~ Van and cakes~

Let's see, starting with the coffee, clockwise: Espresso, Chocolate mousse with Baked Cheesecake centre, Strawberry mousse, Mascarpone coffee and chocolate, Mango Mousse with Creme Brulee centre, Macadamia Mousse with Creme Brulee centre, and the last one in the middle is Mille-Feuille. ALL YUMS~~
I know where I am getting my breads and my b'day cake now...Oh and afternoon tea~ XD

Then at Ajisen~

Van and I! XD

Jess and I~ ^^
---------------------------------------
Random notes:
1) I just found out that I can get the internet connection in my unit at the swimming pool in the compound!! Gonna spend loads more time there at night now...=D I love the poolside at night cause it's nice and cool, and pretty quiet as well. And I think the deckchairs are comfy even though they are just wood, and I wont' fall asleep there. XD
2) I finished my Protein Digestion in the Horse assignment!!! =D I finished it at the poolside. XD
3) EXAMS ARE 2 WEEKS AWAY! Mega screwed. Shall spend daytime in the library then night time studying at the poolside~
4) I am tired of cooking...0.o"...Just can't seem to be bothered recently.
5) I am addicted to using the words "Anal retentive/Anal" and "KA-BLAH!" now....XD
Well, going off!

And I have a sheep handling prac for half the day tomorrow, then Samantha's and Huiyan's b'day celebration at Ahmet's (South Bank) tomorrow night.

Screwed...

*I just had a beer that's supposed to help me sleep, but I have a sudden urge to blog. Am prolly going to read this some time tomorrow and go WTF?!*

I hate it when people say stuff like "OH, never ask me!" then when I ask them they go "Eee, I say then you ask..." and keep saying that without answering the question. SO FRIGGING ANNOYING. Then they will go "Too bad~ I have plans/functions/meetings/parties/herpes that day already" THEN YOU ASK ME TO ASK YOU FOR WHAT?! 21664137133613

It's just, too many people have done that, and it gets on me nerves.

I think I really should try sleeping *hic*

Made Honey Tumeric Wings for dinner! They were absolute yums!!! Haven't had such yummy chicken for a very long time` You must must must try it!! ^^

Recipe adapted from Rasa Malaysia
Makes 10 wings & drumlets

Ingredients:
5 Whole Chicken Wings (or 10 middle parts)
2 tbsp Honey
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tsp Parsley Flakes (or chopped fresh parsley)
1 tsp Blended/Minced Ginger (I use a blended ginger that comes in a tube)
1/2 tsp Chilli powder
1/2 tsp Tumeric powder

Steps:
-If you are using whole chicken wings, use a scissors and by cutting through the joint, separate the drumlets from the wing. (Yield 10 pieces total)
-Marinate the chicken pieces with all the above ingredients for 1-2 hours. If you are using a bowl, remember to move the wings at the top to the bottom periodically so each wing is completely marinated. Or, if you are using a ziploc bag, just flip the bag over...
-Pre-heat oven to 200 degs celsius. Once heated, place wings in oven (middle rack) and retain the marinade liquid.
-Bake wings for 20 minutes or till cooked, flipping them over at 10 minutes. Before flipping over, brush the wings once with the marinade. Then a couple of minutes before they are done, brush again with the marinade.
-Once done, remove immediately from the oven and serve.
*Wings are cooked once juices run clear.

Do try it! They are really really good, and probably the best BBQ-ed wings I have ever made. ^^

*I am glad Joe's on a diet, cause that means I get to have more wings! Don't worry, I didn't eat them all, I packed half for lunch tomorrow~*

MLIAs for today!

Today, I was playing the game where my cat will lick my fingers and I try to catch his tongue. After multiple victories I had to yawn. My cat stuck his paw in my mouth. You win Jack-Jack. MLIA.

Today, I bought a variety pack of kitchen utensils. As I took out the extremely large knife, I noticed a label that sad, Warning: Keep out of children. I am hoping this was a misprint. MLIA.

Today, I taught my students the importance of the squiggly line over the n in Spanish (the tilda), because it makes the difference between "I am 17 years old" and "I have 17 butt holes". I feel as if I am teaching important life lessons to America's youth

Today, my professor handed out a writing guide to the whole class. I naturally looked through it and noticed that he wrote revising a paper is like a condom; not your first priority, but your first obligation nonetheless. MLIA.

Today, I had to babysit my 3-year old neighbor for an hour. Her parents put the channel "Noggin" on before they left so she could watch it. On one of the shows, the main character was looking for a bunch of birds with horns. He asked the kids, "Can you help me find my horny friends?" I have never laughed so hard, ever. MLIA.

Today, I went out for dinner with my family. I noticed that our really cute waiter was wearing a shirt that said "Laugh at my shirt or starve" written on the back. I burst out laughing. He gave me a free dessert and a phone number. MLIA

Today, I was giving a spelling quiz to my second graders. The word was born. My students still get confused with letters at times and about half wrote porn. I am tempted to put their texts in time capsules and send it to them in 15 years. MLIA

Today, I was browsing through my school's library and found that the Bible was in the Fiction section. I go to a Catholic school. MLIA

Taking a small break from studying muscle groups and decided to read some essays on Yahoo Taiwan's Knowledge+ section. =]

I find this one pretty good. Do have a read if you understand chinese~

給在戀愛中及想戀愛的男女。。。

女生的心很脆弱~~~
常因為你的小體貼而感動,如果你一直對我好 我可能就會喜歡你

女生的感情很豐富~~~
喜歡你的我,會毫不保留的付出,天真的認為有天你就會懂

女生的心很容易受傷~~~
所以我不輕易說出口~~~假如期望落空了,傷心難過很不好受

女生的心很倔強 ~~~
總希望你先說,如果你也猶豫不決...
或許我們就這樣錯過...再來後悔為何當初不說......

男生的心很脆弱~~~
常常因為妳的小動作而心碎,如果妳一直若即若離,我怎麼敢喜歡妳

男生的心思很細密~~~
喜歡妳的我,會不計一切的付出,單純的以為你會懂得珍惜

男生的愛很不容易說出口~~~
因為一旦說出口,或許再也沒有或許了,彼此悲傷見面真的很不好受

男生的心很懦弱~~~
總怕傷心而緊閉雙唇,或許一打開雙唇盡吐心語後
就會後悔當初為何不乖乖沉靜在那片刻的幸福中.....


人的一輩子只能愛上一個人
或是,只能被一個人愛上,你想過嗎?
你想要選擇哪一種?
我曾經對這個問題很迷惘?
畢竟,人的一輩子真的只能愛上一個人嗎?

就算是真的,那所謂的被愛是幸福,愛人是痛苦。
是否就已經為這個問題作出解答了呢?

有時候,真的會很感嘆,覺得真情不在........
有時候,甚至會懷疑自己付出的到底是不是真情?
或許自己正虛偽戴上面具,
彷彿這就是自己似的……自己

其實,人一輩子,就只能愛上一個人了 .....
或許你覺得不可思議......
但沒有人能把心分做很多部分
一顆心怎麼分成兩半..
或是更多...
那樣會讓心受傷的..
要不,那就不是他的~『真心』

在愛上他之後
發覺全心的愛是真正偉大的
你可以終其一生,都是為了他
你可以不吃不睡,只是為了見到他笑的樣子....
你可以不眠不休,只是為了聽到他的聲音....
你可以為他付出一切,無怨無悔........
這就是你的愛
真實的愛,確切的愛,不凡的愛,
刻骨銘心的愛 .......
用你唯一的真心--付出一切的愛......

如果說
人的一輩子只能愛上一個人
或是,只能被一個人愛上
我要選擇去愛上一個人

畢竟
在美麗與激情過後,
就算只是一個無言的結局

畢竟
我曾經愛過.....
我還留有許多珍貴且美好的回憶
和我全心真心付出的證據

看到一個深愛著你的人為你而改變
因為愛你,他收起他的頑固脾氣
因為愛你,他對別人都以感謝的心
因為愛你,他把你的興趣也變成是他的興趣

喜歡一個人是沒有原因的
他無悔的付出,都認為是值得的,只要能和相愛的人在一起...

其實我們的身邊都有一些這樣的人,只是我們還沒發現...
最懂你的人,總是會一直的在你身邊守護你,不讓你有一絲的委屈...
真正愛你的人,不會說許多愛你的話卻會做許多愛你的事...
如果你身邊有這樣的人的話,請你好好珍惜...........

I know I know, my blog posts have been very inconsistent and boring lately. But trust me, they are only about to get more inconsistent & boring cause the EOY exams are almost here. And before that I have my loco prac exam on Monday and a Biol1028 seminar the week after the next(group hasn't even met yet...=.="), then a Physiology essay after that.

So, you will prolly find many posts on bitching/mugging about/for exams...

Anyways, I finally stopped procrastinating and finished my Biochemistry assignment. I hope it's alright cause the dumb lecturer gave super vague instructions...>.>...

KA-BLAH~

Anyways, remember I said Joe made dinner the other night?
Surprisingly yummy! And I am not prejudiced like Jess said. Or maybe I am cause his cooking last time was very >.>...XD

Picture: Boiled veggies (to go with the braised mince), braised mince and basil omelette. P.S. Was too hungry to take a proper photo, and Joe got to the egg before my camera got there...

Funny conversation with Joe about the Basil omelette:
Joe: I make basil omelette okay? *eyes the bunch of basil I just set in a glass of water*
Me: Don't want! Last time you made it damn horrible~ >.>...
Joe: Huh? What did I do? 0_o (obviously doesn't remember)
Me: You went and chuck the whole bunch of basil in there with the stalk. Can still see the whole shape of the basil after you cooked it somemore!
Joe: But supposed to take only the leaves what...
Me: Ya, it's common sense, how I know what you doing!? o.0"
Joe: Oh...Okay lah... *starts removing basil leaves*

He did the stupid thing, then says that it should be done some other way which happens to be the right way... *smacks forehead*

Then I made Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings with Basil, Chilli and Garlic for dinner last night.

Super yums! Got the recipe off Nook and Pantry blog~
Click HERE for recipe!

Ah wells, shall go back to studying loco for abit before I go to bed...

Oh and Joe made sushi the other time as well. Kin Fatt helped with vinegar-ing the rice since he was here to get the Taiwan drama episodes off me. And it was yummeh too! =D
Then he started chopping cabbage...and here's the convo:

Me: You gonna fry cabbage?
Joe: No...For sushi

Me: Har?! where got people put cabbage slices in sushi de?!
Joe: They do! It's only whether you wanna put it in or not...
Me: 0.o"...*thinks: what kind of sushi has Joe been having???*

" 那时我们被困在路边
世界不过是一个小小屋檐
你说如果雨一直下到明天
我们就厮守到永远

我喜欢打篮球的你
我喜欢会发呆的你
我喜欢弹吉他的你
我喜欢骂我无聊的你
我喜欢咬指甲的你
我喜欢在电话傻笑的你
我喜欢常搞笑的你
我喜欢犹豫不决的你
我喜欢试穿牛仔裤五次的你
我喜欢听我牢骚的你
我喜欢这么多这么多的你
你又会把我放在你心中的哪里呢?"

Man...this is such a nostalgic feeling. The whole thing is from the extremely old Yes 93.3FM radio station in Singapore. It was from a program they used to have at night called the 音乐日记 (Music Diary), where people would write and send in stories about their life to the station and get it read out at night during the program.

They stopped the program sometime ago and I suddenly thought about it cause I have been playing my whole iTunes collection randomly and it suddenly played a podcast I had of the 音乐日记 program. Started listening to those that I have and this quote got stuck in my head. =D

Kinda sad it's no longer running...Hmmm

Getting slightly addicted to the short stories/essays that some Yahoo! Taiwan users have published onto the "智慧+" (Knowledge+) section.

One that I am reading now is titled Angel's Wish 逐風天使 and the author has quoted from somewhere this:

  世界上最遙遠的距離,不是生和死,而是我站在你面
  前,你卻不知道我愛你。
  
  世界上最遙遠的距離,不是我站在你面前,你卻不知道
  我愛你,而是明明相愛卻又不能在一起。

  世界上最遙遠的距離,不是明明相愛卻又不能在一起,
  而是明明愛你卻還要裝作絲毫不在意。

  世界上最遙遠的距離,不是明明愛你卻還要裝作絲毫不
  在意,而是用自己最冷漠的心,對自己所愛的人築起一
  道鴻溝。

I have heard of the first 2 paras from Hans, but not the 3rd and 4th! =D

Super loves this quote...^^

Side note: Joe's cooking dinner tonight! Can't be bothered to cook, so he's cooking 肉燥飯 (braised mince + rice? XD),Basil Omelette and plain Boiled Greens to go with the braised mince! =D Happy~

A few quotes I saw on MLIA (My Life Is Average) and I thought might make your day or at least put a smile on your face!

-Today, my teacher finally handed out our biology textbooks. Usually the first thing everyone does is open up their books and see who used them last year. While everyone else was squealing over which cute senior boy's books they got, I opened mine. I have Jesus's Biology book. I win. MLIA.

-Today, I was sitting in my room and heard a little boy outside sneeze. I said bless you, and five seconds later, I heard a very hesitant...."God??." MLIA

-Today, I was looking up the side effects for the medicine I am on. The therapeutic dose and the toxic dose are very close, so I have to really be aware. The list of side effects includes giggling. I thought that was funny and couldn't stop giggling. Now I'm worried. MLIA

-Today, I was watching a reality-show where people use private investigators to try to catch their significant others having an affair. During one scene a woman saw her boyfriend skinny-dipping in a pond with another girl. They did not blur out the girl's face, but they did blur the faces of the ducks swimming in the water. I haven't laughed this hard in years. MLIA.

-Today, I asked a little girl I was babysitting what her favorite color was so I could draw her a picture. She looked at me very seriously and said "I don't have a favorite color, because I don't want to hurt the other colors feelings." MLIA

-Today, while walking to class, some random guy tapped me on my shoulder. I took out an earbud and turned around. He kneeled down and started to sing "Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be alone" He kept singing, pulled out a ring pop, put it on my ring finger and said "Baby just say yes!" So obviously I said yes! He got up, hugged me, and ran away yelling, She said yes! I love my college. MLIA

-Today, a kid in my class told the teacher that his dog ate his homework. The teacher laughed, until the kid silently pulled out a clear ziplock bag with an obviously chewed piece of paper in it. We all applauded. MLIA

-Today my identical twin and I were at the mall after school. We met a few guys. Trying to make conversation, one of the guys asked, "so how long have you two been twins" MLIA

An essay I found on Yahoo!奇摩/Yahoo! Taiwan's knowledge forum thingy.

體貼,才是殘忍

「妳,喜歡我嗎?」
女孩沒有回答,只是靜靜的笑著

一分鐘、一小時、一整天、一個禮拜…

對於男孩
女孩依舊笑容以待

女孩說:「我這麼做,只是不想傷害他,我…不喜歡他。」
女孩又說:「我想,他應該會明白,我的意思。」

男孩說:「那天,我終於鼓起勇氣,向她告白,只是…」
男孩又說:「我真的不知道,她…到底喜不喜歡我?」

她是因為害羞嗎?還是她的家人,不準她談戀愛?還是…?
我想,我需要給她一些時間;不要逼她,讓她好好想想。(男孩想)
體貼,才是殘忍


「你,喜歡我嗎?」

男孩沒有回答,只是裝作一切自然。
一分鐘、一小時、一整天、一個禮拜…

對於女孩
男孩故作一如往常

男孩說:「我不想破壞我們原本的友誼關係,所以…」
男孩又說:「她應該明白,我岔開話題的原因,我不喜歡她。」

女孩說:「那天,我終於鼓起勇氣,向他告白,只是…」
女孩又說:「我真的不知道,他…到底喜不喜歡我?」

他,不喜歡我嗎?那又是為什麼?他會對我如此體貼?
他,喜歡我嗎?那又是為什麼?他不能馬上回答我?

我想,我需要給他一些時間;不要逼他,讓他好好想想。(女孩想)
體貼,才是殘忍

----

我們永遠以為
用婉轉、用智慧、用笑容、用體貼
就可以將傷害級數,降到最低

卻忘了…

「只有愛情例外」

我們永遠以為
當個濫好人,總比當個壞人來的討好

卻忘了…

「只有愛情例外」

因為,再理智的人
遇到愛情,都會變成白癡
因為,再善解人意的人
遇到愛情,都會變成傻瓜
因為,再聰明的人
遇到愛情,都會變成笨蛋

「有話就直說吧!」
把心裡,真正的想法說出來

能傷害他(她)一秒鐘,就不要傷害他(她)一分鐘
能傷害他(她)一小時,就不要傷害他(她)一整天

剩下的時間
相信他(她)我們..
會很努力,很努力療傷的…

Remember that!

Introduction

Hi! Welcome to my blog.

This is the area where I rant and rave about everything and anything going on in my life.

If you are looking for recipes, the links to each single recipe will be located before the archives, just scroll down a little.

Usually, I talk about what's been going on in my life, my cooking, or my latest buys/holiday trips.

Time to time, I will introduce new websites that I find interesting, and online shopping haunts.

I make my own blogskins, and I do submit them onto blogskins.com. You can find them HERE

Thats about it!
