YAY!!! The holidays are here!! =)
Had a fun weekend so far, celebrating Mr. Hao's birthday and hanging out with Van and Jess~ Obviously overspending and running out of money~ XD
1 Mid semester test on the Tuesday back to uni, then 2 assignments to hand in during the first two weeks of May, gotta start some actual researching soon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Other news:
Received a Letter of Commendation from the Faculty of Science for last semester's GPA of 6.5 overall~
Told parents, Dad said "Good, strive harder and get better results next semester!", Mum said "Top 20% (of the faculty) very high meh?! You should get GPA 7 overall since you said it was easy peasy!"
My reaction as follows:
Then continued saying that I should go find out which part of the 20% I am in or specifically my place compared to other students....
My reaction as follows:
Yes...DAFUQ?~ (Okay, no more memes) Like seriously?! Why do I need to even know that?! You think the University is really going to put together a list telling you who is 1st, 2nd, 3rd.........Xth place?! Even if they did, I am not remotely interested!
Don't get me wrong, I love my parents, it's just the whole "You should get a perfect GPA since you said it was easy" and "Go find out your exact place in the whole uni" that's annoying me. Can't you just be happy that I did well, after like almost 3 years of doing horribly in Vet Science.
When I failed stuff in Vet science, I didn't get told off or anything just nagged at to study harder etc, so why is it that when I do well in Vet Tech, I don't get congratulations?! =.=" Parents~~(Rolls eyes and shakes head)
Seriously?! Now I know why everyone in Singapore is so freaking competitive over every single little subject/test. Random classmate A:"Hey, so what did you get for the test?!", Me thinks:"Why the fuck do you care?"
Blah....Then Dad goes on talking about me going back to Vet Science after finishing Vet Technology, which kind of annoyed me further cause right now, I honestly do not want to go back there. Running away, giving up on my dreams...Call it whatever you want, but it's not even an option to go down that path again.
It's like what, 50K/year for tuition fees alone...Dad said to get PR before going back to Vet Science then the fees would be waaaaay cheaper. Really? So easy to get PR huh...~
Arrgh...Yes, I still love my parents.

You know what pisses me off?
When people decide to put up photos of you in the middle of an action (eating and talking are the most annoying ones), which you have no idea they took, on Facebook!
You really think that's funny? To have photos of people in the midst of eating (food hanging out of their mouths) and talking (open mouths, animated actions, tongues out, pursed mouths, weird faces/eyes) etc?!
Oh and then go on and tag me to see my reaction...And in order not to appear unfriendly I have to go like "omg? LOL~" etc, when I don't think it's funny at all. Har-de-ha-ha, what about I put up a photo of you in the middle of constipation, or while you are drooling in your sleep, or singing in the shower?! Just imagine yourself in my shoes, you still think it's funny?
I already know how ugly I am, thanks for reminding me every opportunity you have that I am the ugliest in the group. I bet hanging out with me makes you feel so much better about yourself.
Oh actually it's not just those photos, it's also photos where I already told you not to put them up or to delete them but for some reason you decided that it would be funny to put it up~ Awesome job guys, you are now on my hate list.
And then you get so dramatic when I put up un-glam photos of you...Revenge is sweet baby.
Freaking nutjobs
Obviously a rage post not directed at you.

Been surfing Pinterest ever since I discovered it...(about 2 days ago, yes I know I am slow and outdated). If you don't know what Pinterest is, check it out!
Pinterest is full of ideas, it is basically pinning things that interest you onto the boards hosted on the site. I haven't been able to join it yet cause it's "Invitation Only" so either you get someone who's already in it to invite you or you enter your email into the "Request Invitation" box and cross your fingers that an invitation arrives soon!
I found out a lot of websites through it where I learnt a couple of tips and tricks for the homemaker, which I will be posting up today, with a couple of pictures and links!
1) Flexible vacuum: To vacuum in those tight spaces such as under your fridge without moving the fridge, fit an empty paper towel roll on the hose end of your vacuum, the other end of the cardboard can be bent and flattened for those awkward spaces!
2) The power of baking soda: Multiple uses for baking soda, everything from whitening clothes, getting rid of tough stains on cookware, getting rid of soap scum deodorizing to whitening teeth and soothing insect bites!
3) Tired of taking apart your blender to clean it after every use? Add a little dish soap, fill it with water and turn it on for a few seconds. Empty out your soapy water and rinse. Voila, all clean!
4) How to properly fold fitted sheets on Marthastewart.com (Click here for link to step-by-step): 
5) Keeping marshmallows in a container with brown sugar (Original post: HERE ), helps to prevent the brown sugar from hardening!
6) Clean your mattress! (Original post: HERE) with baking soda too!
7) Coffee Filters are good for cleaning too! They are lint-free and soaks up oil well making them great for cleaning glass items (gonna use it for my car windscreen and windows~). Filtering other liquids like oil for reusing or if you happen to drop pieces of cork into wine.
-----------------------------------------------------
On another note...My bed frame almost fell apart!!!!! The solid wood bed frame started squeaking last year (yes, due to the increasing weight on top of it =P), and today I noticed that the end board made from 3 pieces of wood (2 vertical ones on the ends and a large, horizontal on between them) was separating at the joints!
Took the bed apart and found that one of the side rails had a crack down 1/3 of it's length and that the dowels in the joints were loose....Well, luckily I had some "Liquid Nails" super strength adhesive that claims to hold just about anything together and for filling cracks.
So I went through the process of gluing in the dowels into their holes and fixing up the end board and turning it on its end to help the glue set right. Put some into the crack so hopefully that doesn't fall apart. Gonna put it back after the weekend since I am staying at Phoenix's anyway, if it still doesn't work then it's off to Ikea for the MALM or NYVOLL bed frames!
Alright, it's getting late! Toodles~

有时候回到新加坡真的很烦 Labels: Rants
没有一天是平平静静的
三天一大吵，每天一小吵
一定会有人在大吼大叫， 不然就会有人惹是生非
回到来想和大家一起吃饭都难
不是有人没到或迟到, 不然就是不想和家里的人吃饭。。。
都是一家人，有必要闹那么僵吗？！
------------------------------------------------------
帮一个人要先看他有没有要你帮忙， 不要帮人还被人家嫌你罗嗦嫌你烦，这样真的会觉得自己吃饱太闲没事找骂。 悲哀哦~~

Well, it's been a shitty 4 months so far~
Remember last post where I talked about losing my passion to work with animals and whatnot? I realised that's not the case.
Many things have happened since my last update:
-I QUIT VETERINARY SCIENCE!
-Transferred back into Veterinary Technology (BAppSc)
-Phoenix finally got a job-ish
-Went back to Singapore for holidays and only met up with people...once?
-Yang Hao and Joe graduated!
-I moved house, and I still don't have internet or phone connection at the new place~
First things first, I transferred back to Veterinary Technology from Vet Science, I know it's the right thing to do and I have never been so sure of a decision in my life so far.
It's been tough in Vet Science; struggling with studies and doubting my abilities to be able to help animals after graduating (if I graduate). I don't know what got into me when I got into second year of Vet Science, I just seemed to lose all interest in what I was studying and wanted out. My parents wanted me to stay on, and so I did, using 3 years to study what people do in 2.
I knew that Vet science wouldn't be easy but I guess I wasn't prepared for how difficult it would be, especially after I had to re-do a course and didn't know anyone in that year. Because Vet Science is such a small program (100+ students a year), everyone knows everyone in their year and coming in when they all have their own little cliques isn't the best.
People might think I am quitting cause I think it's too hard (well, come to think of it, maybe I am), some will say I am wasting my parents money cause they spent so much on paying my tuition fees for Vet Science (but if they continue to pay for 3 more years od around AUD45,000 a year when I am not going to do any better, I am wasting less this way).
I talked to Mum and Dad and they were really supportive. I thought that they would be really angry but they weren't, so I am glad. I was thinking, after graduating from Vet Tech, I can work and really find out what the industry is like, and if I still want to do Veterinary Science then, I would go to another Uni to study it and pay for it myself then I wouldn't be so stressed about letting other people down.
*Mental note: Check out the prospectus of the universities first and see what the courses offer*
I am going to the workshops offered by student services so I can learn study techniques that suit my learning style (apparently I am quite well balanced between learning styles but prefer to learn verbally rather than visually), how to take notes and revise efficiently and how to study for exams (time management etc.). They really help!
I am actually really happy in Vet Tech and I look forward to going to classes instead of dreading to go to them. That's good right? So why do I feel embarrased when I see previous Vet Sci students from my year?
------------------------------------------------------------
Phoenix found a job doing fundraising in Toowong Village! I am not sure what cause it's for (some humanity thing). Say hi if you see him, and if you want to donate to a good cause, look for him. The pay's pretty shit if you don't get anyone to sign up though, and it's just for the first 2 weeks after that, he doesn't get paid if no one signs up! =.="
Oh well, it's better than staying home doing nothing~ ^^
-----------------------------------------------------------
Hao and Joe graduated! And Amanda's here for student exchange! Joe's doing Masters in QUT and Hao's doing Cookery in TAFE now...That means they will still be here for my graduation, I think~
Their parents came over which was quite awesome and great fun!
------------------------------------------------------------
I moved house like...2 months ago or something like that. Joe and Yang Hao came over and helped loads! We rented a truck, Phoenix drove and they moved! I didn't do much~ XD Thanks guys!
And until now, I still don't have INTERNET! Which is really shitty. Apparently the cable leading from the main telecom circuit to the units in my compound only allowed 2 of the 4 units to be connected. WTF?! So the contractor went to talk to the rental agent (before the semester break), and the rental agent contacted the owner who dug up blueprints and contacted her electrician who is supposed to sort it out and then discuss how to fix it with the contractor!
More than a month has passed and nothing is done! Went to the rental agent more than 3 times! Arrrgh~ I am going to request that they fix it sometime this month the next time I go. Can I ask for compensation? Like going to uni to use the internet, and the bills that I am still paying even though I am not using the services?!
---------------------------------------------------
Hmm, there isn't much else to update about. Until next time!

Passion by *MichelleRamey on deviantART
Hmm...Just a little rant in the middle of the night
I seem to have lost my passion for working with animals. Maybe it's the whole "Let's cut up a dead dog (obtained ethically, surrendered voluntarily by owners to the university with full consent of what we are doing to them - more about this later) for prac today and we can see how the muscles/digestive system/nervous system/cardiovascular system works!" in Vet School which equates to not much interaction with live animals.
Now whenever we have practical sessions with live animal handling, especially dogs, all I think of is "I wonder if I will see this dog in the fridge next".
Or maybe it's the whole issue with Vet School trying to push us all into large animal practice, such as cattle, sheep, horses and so on. I mean, like 70% of whatever we are learning is catered towards large animals! I can take 50%, but 70% is kinda too much! We are learning about pastures, then nutrition which focuses more on large ruminants than any other animal.
Just cause Queensland has more small animal practices than large animal practices doesn't mean we all have to be pushed towards the demand market. Honestly, I am not into large animals at all. Seriously. Horses? They are okay. Cattle? Hmm. Sheep? Bah~
Why can't we get to choose what we want to study!? Like maybe we can do 2 years of general stuff, then for the next 3 years, focus more on the area we want to, be it exotics, avian, small animal or large animal! Wouldn't it make more sense to produce vets that are well trained in their individual areas rather than have a bunch of jack of all trades (or animals in this case), master of none vets?
Wouldn't clients want a vet whom is well trained in his/her area and don't know much about other types of animals than one that is mediocre in all areas?
It's called Veterinary Science, not Production Animal Medicine Science for a reason right?!
I wanted to study this cause I like the company of animals and it would feel good if I can make them better when they are sick, especially since they can't tell you what's wrong. But nowadays, all I can think of is how I am gonna tell future clients that I don't know shit about what I am doing or what's wrong with their pet! I am probably just plain stupid or something.
I don't know...I just can't seem to hold on any more. I am actually demoralised.
A Question Of Ethics. by ~nexxxxxx on deviantART
Anyways, regarding the whole ethically sourced animals. I don't get why the vet school isn't allowed to take abandoned/unwanted animals from pounds anymore because it's deemed as animal cruelty or unethical. The animal is going to be put down anyway, so might as well let vet students learn as much as they can rather than just incinerate it?
Don't get me wrong. If the animals were put down just for our learning's sake, that would be very wrong indeed. But if the owners wanted them put down at whatever cost/reason, or if they were unwanted and had to be put down cause they are vicious or cause they are too old etc. then I don't see the problem in letting the vet students have them and learn more about them.
Previously the school could source dogs from pounds and places like that, but then animal welfare groups stepped in and we aren't allowed to do it anymore. Apparently the universities in other states can do it. OH, and it's just dogs and horses, no one cares about us using pigs or cattle or sheep cause they are production animals? If you are a really animal welfare supporter you should treat all of them equally, not just support the ones you like!
Arrgh...This whole thing is getting to me. Gonna go!

Unlucky Walk-animated by ~tigeress66 on deviantART
So~~ I have been missing for the longest time ever since I started this blog! I am still alive, barely. So much stuff's been happening to me! It's like a WTF month of March. Murphy's law in action~ So as Gordon Ramsay would say "F*** Me~" *and proceed with facepalm*.
1) Spent money buying new essentials; rice cooker, saucepan, pizza stone & hair dryer!
---- The non-stick lining on the inner pot of the old rice cooker peeled off.
---- Same with saucepan
---- The pizza stone went moudly. I cleaned it!!
---- The hair dryer filter broke.
2) The new stainless steel saucepan got burnt the second time it got used. Had to clean it off with baking soda and vinegar, got really pissed but it's fine now~
3) First time I got a flat tire, and I was late for uni too! Something good came out of it, I learnt how to change tires!
4) Got my new Corolla hatchback in Wildfire red, and drove it down to Brisbane on the first day. Managed to maul a dent that stretches over the middle quarter of the rocker panel/side skirt on the first night while parking at Phoenix's place! Costing me over a grand to replace...
5) Lost the cable that connects my camera to the laptop. Nothing major~ Just annoying.
6) Got my bag taken from Phoenix's room cause he forgot to lock his bedroom glass doors (which leads to the outside). It happened while we were sleeping! Like between 3.30 and 6.30am! LIKE WTF?! It's scary when you think about it. We could have been murdered!
Referring to incident 6, I think the thief is pretty stupid/nice/just wants cash cause...There were 2 laptops, 2 dSLRs, 2 mobile phones and a pile of coins just blatantly sitting there, and he/they didn't take any of those. He/they took my bag, which is worthless, and all I had in there was a bag of peanut M&Ms, my wallet, coin purse and sunnies! The amount of cash in there, probably could hardly afford them a maccas meal.
He/they even took a small pouch, probably hoping to find some money in there, but all Phoenix kept in that were his receipts from last year.
Anyways, we reported it to the police, a patrol unit came and looked around and said they would talk to the neighbours. Then a forensics guy came in to dust the door for fingerprints, he found a couple but we don't know if it's the thieves' or our own. We headed out to look around the area cause they would probably throw stuff away that's worthless.
Found my handbag under a streetlamp at a park nearby, with all the receipts and my sunnies in it. M&Ms were there too...Threw those away, duh~ Then Phoenix found Domo (my coin purse) sitting sadly on a stump so we recovered that too. Gotta replace the stuff in the wallet! IDs, debit cards, licenses and stuff. WHY CAN'T THEY HAVE JUST TAKEN MY MONEY AND LEFT THE WALLET?!
I mean, it's like, they take my wallet with $5 in it, but I have to spend more than $150 to replace all those cards! @!#%^&%&$#!$!$^*$@!$!%&*! A Singapore IC takes $100 and a month to replace! It's just so ANNOYING!
OH and he/they took my glasses too. Wthell do you want with my glasses?! They are so badly scratched that I have a hard time looking through them. ARRGH~
So yeap, FML max pretty much sums up my month of March.
On a lighter note, I think I improved on my photography skills!

Gonna have to ring up Singapore's ICA tomorrow to report a stolen ID, get a replacement student ID, replace my QLD driver's license, report my stolen Singapore driver's license, call DBS bank to report a stolen debit card! Oh and I have to go to class on top of all that! Awesome.

What on Earth is wrong with some people nowadays?
Apparently flamming your own family on facebook for all to see is something to be proud of!? Using a few thousand dollars on some game is justifiable just cause you are stuck at home on probation?! What, you think using someone elses phone number to pay for it means that they won't know its you?
Are you really that naive to think that the phone bills dont let the users know what they are paying for and that you can lie your way out of trouble? Oh, I know, maybe you are using other people's phone numbers cause if they don't pay for your bill, your line gets terminated but then they can't not pay for their own bills!
Apparently your friends make better family then your parents? Yea sure, try getting them to get you out of trouble, pay for your notorious bills, buy you new laptops, computers, dslr, private school fees, clothes, food and whatever else your parents actually pay for. Go ahead, run away live with them and lets see if you change your mind.
Yes, its never good to hear your own family calling you stupid or an idiot, but have you thought about why he called you that in the first place? And apparently he can't call you that cause he hasn't been to jail nor has he stabbed anyone as you so proclaimed on Facebook? Don't worry about my friends reading this, I am pretty sure your outburst on FB has already caught their attention as most of them know you anyway. And seeing that you are so proud of the actions, you wouldnt mind right?
Do you even know how much grief you have caused mum and dad? Any idea who rings me to cry and exclaim over your matters. Its about time you learnt to appreciate whats given to you. At your age people no longer "screw their own family upside down" let alone on a public network. Grow up and stop acting like a 2 year old.
If you just so happen to see this, I am hoping maybe you will gather some kind of guilt and just stop whatever you are doing before you drive anyone to the grave. If not, then I will probably just see more exclaimations on FB, flamming on my blog and maybe even people waiting to "look for me" when I am back in Singapore!

LOL, I haven't updated my blog in ages...as usual. I have to start uploading, resizing and editing photos soon~
Anyways, Katey transferred her Fitness First Gym Membership to me cause it's the cheaper one, $33.90 a fortnight for a Passport (Meaning I can go to all gyms in Aust except the platinum ones) compared to Joe's $37 something a fortnight for the same membership.
Went home after my first gym session since eons after 1hr15mins with sore arms, legs and sweaty (can't be bothered to shower there since my place is like...3 mins away). AND IT WAS RAINING~ =.=" But it felt good to be exercising again. Going again on Thursday.
Okay, enough Fat talk.
-------------------------------------------------
Phoenix is officially coming to Singapore!! From the night of 14th July till 21st July then we are meeting at Brisbane airport cause I arrive like an hour after him.
*My internet has decided to act up again while I am writing blog...*
More good news! I have been approved to do my Equine (horse) pre-clinical experience at the Singapore Polo Club! ^^ Gonna do 10days there and finish up that part of my pre-clinical. Then I have 2 weeks sheep + 1 week beef cattle (or vice versa), 1 week dairy cattle and 2 weeks of whatever I want to do left. Thinking of Singapore/Australia Zoo but Phoenix said Australia zoo only lets us clean poop...So maybe Seaworld/Dreamworld instead.
Internet's acting up so I won't bother with pictures just yet~

You know that feeling?
That when you want answers yet they can't be found?
the end by *meppol on deviantART
I once ever said that people always have a choice.
I asked you once, asked you twice...but the answer always disappoints.
Seems that it might not be true!
You always say "hmm, I don't know" or "issit really important?"
Things may rank differently with different people~
Of course it's important! I won't ask if it's not.
Sometimes I don't even know what I want.

Okay, let me rant about SIA first before I do my Cairns trip on the next post.
So, I went to Singapore Airlines Ticketing Office in Ion Orchard to purchase my tickets going to Taipei and back from Hong Kong cause I don't have a credit card and I am using my Mum's card.
Reasons why I didn't buy it online with my mum's credit card: Because SIA requires you to sign a IOL/consent form thingy if you are paying but not travelling, which is a pain in the ass.
Anyway, wanted to get the tickets from the office and before processing the ticketing lady said "Oh, if you are purchasing from us, we have to charge you an additional $75 so it's more expensive than the $818 you wrote here." I stared at her and said "$75?! Whatever for?!" And she just said "Cause we are the head office so....." and I said "This kind of thing never happened when I was in Australia. Forget it, I am going to buy it online."
Mum asked about the IOL thing and she said that we have to go back there after we buy the tickets online and they will verify the card and give it to us. And I remembered seeing something about an electronic IOL so I asked her since there's no way I am going back to that office and she said "Oh right, yes, you can do that..."
Mum and I both said a version of "What's the point of having this office here, if people can buy their tickets online without being charged an extra $75?! It's a head office, all the more reason they shouldn't charge an extra transaction fee. You are just getting money off people that either don't have a credit card or internet or both!" All she could say was "Oh, we have internet facilities outside if you want to use it to buy the tickets."
I might be speculating here, but because I already checked the prices online and gave her the slip of paper to book the flights for me with the price written on it, then she tells me about the $75 fee. So I am thinking, if I hadn't know the price, would they still tell me about the transaction fee or not?
It's $75!? I can understand if the transaction fee was less than $10 but $75?! No way in hell am I paying for that~
After the lousy/cheap food and this incident. Singapore Airlines has made an impression on me, sure, it's the economy crisis (which I thought was over cause I heard it on the news) but must you do this?

WHEE! I AM BACK IN SINGAPORE!!!
-And super backdated on blogposts~ I know I know! I was just so overwhelmed by the whole relationship thing. 0.o"...Yes yes, an excuse, but a good one~ XD-
--------------------------------------------------
ANNNNDDD!!! I am going to Taiwan and Hong Kong in January! In about 2 weeks time, I will be in Taipei on Sunday (10th Jan) with Yang Hao playing host!
Not sure where I am staying though...Chef Hao, if you are reading this, haul your ass online sometime at night sometime after Tuesday or drop me a FB msg!!! And I have a Christmas/New Year present for you as well~ =d
Then on the 15th it's off to Hong Kong I go to see Phoenix! He's heading back from Aust on the same day, and our flights are only 10mins apart with me touching down first! We get to see each other before even getting out of customs. XD I miss my XOXOs~ Probably staying over at his place~ ^^ My Cantonese sucks...Someone help me~ DISNEYLAND!!
Heading back to Singapore on the night of the 21st. So it pretty much means I get 5 full "useable" days in each place.
-------------------------------------------------
The day before I got back to Singapore -23rd Dec- I got really sick, and I am guessing it's a type of stomach flu or food poisoning. I woke up really tired, with a headache + unsteadiness when I walk + bloated tummy + slight fever and really bad nausea which I suspect was from the too many cream cheese + rice thins I had the night before. Blargh, I will never look at either of them the same way again.
Went to the pharmacy and they said that I need prescriptions for any anti-nausea pills, so I went to UQ clinic. Spent 30mins at the sick bay, sleeping, then the doc came and saw me, found the symptoms weird, sent me back to sick bay and she wants to do a urine and blood test + give me a maxalon (or smth) jab. Got Phoenix to come in to accompany me...Injection hurt like hell, blood test stung...I hate needles and the room was bloody cold, froze my butt off.
Then they still couldn't find what's wrong with me and asked weird questions that seem to have nothing to do with my stomach or nausea. 0.o"... Gave me anti-vomit pills and something for anti-dehydration, then I was sent home to feel miserable. Took an anti-vomit pill and slept the rest of the day till dinner time (with Phoenix nearby using his laptop), and I still felt really sleepy. Must be some really powerful sleeping pill. 0.o"
Phoenix took us to Brisbane Powerhouse for dinner, the food was really good but cause I was feeling really sick, I only literally ate 2 mouthfuls and wanted to puke. What a waste...And the view is really awesome too! Sigh~ he says we are going there again though, so I will wait till then.
Got home, made a strange but yummy concoction of porridge that I added dried shrimp, salt, sesame oil (just a drop), beaten eggs, then Joe's 甜酒豆腐乳 and 肉鬆. Felt much better after that, prolly the 甜酒豆腐乳 (ultimate comfort food for the sick asian). Fell asleep in Phoenix's arms then woke up to continue packing my stuff, left for the airport, had brekkie, last XOXO then boarded the plane and back to Singapore I came, still feeling rather sick.
Surprisingly, the food on the flight this time SUCKED! I always loved SIA's food cause they were normally pretty good. This time I had the Scrambled Eggs with Bacon and Baked Potatoes for the LUNCH (it's more like Continental Breakfast, the other choice -Chicken Noodles- were out) and it was just gross, the eggs were powdery and tasteless, bacon was tough. The Aussie that sat next to me left half of it untouched as well.
The refreshment was either fried rice or pie. Should've gone for the pie...Fried rice was too oily, too salty and really dry! Even I make better fried rice than that.
SIA has been getting on my nerves. Will post the reason next time! Stupid redundant SIA head Office at ION Orchard. =.="
ANYWAYS...Sorry about not updating on the Cairns trip yet. I promise I will! Tomorrow, before my grandma's birthday dinner I will update on Cairns even if it's just abit!

The more I think about it, the more angry I get.
Why do people never appreciate it when other people are nice to them??
It's like, you ask me to save a seat for you in the library and you say you will come and leave your bag here so I don't have to be totally embarassed when people ask me "Are you using this seat/space?" when I only have like one measly book and a laptop slipcase on the chair.
If you can't be bothered to come in early to save a seat for yourself, why the hell should I save the seat for you when you are only coming in in the afternoon or even late morning while I am here since the library opens!? Sure, I will help you if you live far away like Phoenix in Sunnybank (he still gets here around 9am anyway) but if you are living in Toowong or St Lucia, just come to the freaking library yourself and grab a seat yourself!
Just cause you have a "friend" here to "book" a seat for you doesn't meant that you can come super late or not answer when I call, especially when I already told you to come and leave your bag here cause I don't have enough things to book 3 seats! SO FREAKING ANNOYING! There is NO EXCUSE AT ALL.
Even if you have an exam at 8am, there is a bus coming in early, if the bus is late, you can WALK TO THE FREAKING UNI FROM YOUR HOUSE. So WHY can't you just come and save a seat for yourself, and then I can just make sure your stuff don't get stolen, then go for the exam!?
So, what's the difference you might ask; from me saving you a seat and you saving a seat yourself and me just looking after it. THE DIFFERENCE IS, at least there is a bag/books there instead of just my stuff everywhere! So it looks more like someone is actually sitting there instead of someone is just leaving their stuff everywhere. It makes me look inconsiderate!
Sure, I will save a seat for you if you live far away or you come like within an hour that I get here, but if you are only coming in the afternoon, don't even EXPECT me to do stuff like that for you. ESPECIALLY if you don't reply my texts and don't answer my calls. Why should I be nice to you when you don't even appreciate it!?
GAH! Back to cell biology

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!

I miss people that actually listen to my woes/complains/problems and ACTUALLY show that they care instead of giving distracted "mm-hmmm..." or just going "I don't care you know?"
BAH, should've called hans today instead of yesterday. Oh wells...
Yes, I am in a bad mood. Just read my twitter. >.>
And I officially hate my housemate. AM TOTALLY MOVING TO GATTON NEXT YEAR. I AM NOT taking SHIT from him for another year. He can go fuck himself and gag, then throw up his duodenum, jejunum, ileum, appendix, colon and mesentries, then swallow it again for all I CARE.

@.@
Been losing sleep for 2 days straight.
Didn't sleep at all on Sunday night, fell asleep in front of the laptop for 1/2 hour on Monday afternoon (then Joe came and woke me to make lunch for him~), then fell asleep from 6 to 8pm. Went to bed at 11, hardly managed to fall asleep at 12.30am then my mum called at 1.28am! WTF?!?! Then I just couldn't go back to sleep again...SERIOUSLY!
I was SOOOO PISSED that I called back and pretty much shouted down the phone! It's like, I AM HAVING INSOMNIA, and I finally manage to drift off at 12.30 and some idiot come and wakes me up...AND FOR NOTHING! It wasn't even anything important!!! And I already told her NOT to call AFTER 11pm Aust time unless my dog's dying or something.
The last time it was Joe, and I couldn't sleep after that too. The next person that does this kind of thing is gonna bear the wrath of my fury. And this is even if you are Hans, so don't try anything funny. Quote Katey: "Castrate them with a rusty wooden spoon."
So yea, didn't sleep at all last night again. And I have to be in school at least till 3pm. THEN I HAVE GROCERIES. THEN Jess and Vanessa are coming over *might ask them not to*, THEN I have to cook dinner! MY DAY IS FUDGED~
It's prolly the stress. When I get really stressed over stuff, I can't sleep. It's about time to get sleeping pills. People who are gonna go "But they are bad for your health!!!", here's my reply: "Not sleeping is bad for my health too! And, if sleeping pills can make me sleep, then it means I can absorb stuff during classes instead of dozing off or daydreaming or just being zombie-like!"
AHH FUDGIE~
Anyways, random note: I know how to make Oyako-don now!! Made it for Joe's lunch yesterday, and used fried chicken instead of the traditional methods cause he wanted fried chicken as usual...Can't see why he never gets sick of fried chicken. He practically lives on it!

Wow, it's Joe's 21st birthday!
Doesn't concern me...no, i am not annoyed, merely extremely pissed off that's all. he shouldn't have came home...
-----------------------------------------------------
Hans says, I should just hang out with good friends (i.e Fatt, Hao, Jess...) more
It does help...
But I can't just go running to them every time I feel alone now can I? XD
And sometimes
Even if I am surrounded by people, I still feel like I am alone
Is it so hard to find someone you can talk to about everything and random things,
Someone that will never make you feel like you are alone or non-existant,
Someone that can make you laugh whole heartedly, smile deep down from your heart,
Someone that, no matter how busy will make time for you,
Someone who never makes you feel awkward or like a burden,
Someone that never makes you think you are wasting their time,
Someone whom you just know is gonna be there even when silent or away. It isn't, I just chose not to stay...Where are you when you are needed?!
JEEZ~

Sometimes, I seriously doubt Joe's INTELLIGENCE level you know?! He is like a fucking spoilt brat! And I don't blame anyone but himself for that.
I was already stressed over studying for the exam tomorrow, and just as I was destressing with the prankcall voice clips that Hans sent me, he had to decide to flip my blanket with my BAG (and all the notebooks and files in it (HEAVY)) and my watch and notes on it, over my head.
GUESS WHAT?! The bag landed smack ontop of my head and my heavy Seiko watch went and hit my temple on the left side. FUCKING IDIOT. And all he did was laugh after saying "Why is it so heavy" and see everything land on my head.
EH FUCK LAH. Are you like freaking RETARDED or are you just too mentally traumatised to come to the conclusion that you should apologize or at least ASK if I AM OKAY?! OI, a 3 kilo load landing on your head is not a funny thing! Oh wow, laugh like a fucking hyena and then start wondering why I am so pissed off.
Told him to get out of my room and he went "Can you tell me why the bag landed like right ontop of your head?". WTF LAH CB! Cannot tell I am pissed issit?! I WAS TYPING MY NOTES. You could've flipped my laptop over for all you care, and then what would happen to the notes that I have been typing for over an hour? GONE.
So now I AM MAJORLY pissed off, and have a splitting headache. LIKE FUCK I can continue studying. TMD, KNN...
AND I AM STILL PISSED. Fucking asshole.

Why must you always piss me off at the end of the day?
Then pretend nothing happened at all the next day.
Not a word about it at all. And act like the nice person I know you are not.
You said you wanted to go buy something to eat cause you were bored.
Fine, I shall eat with you even when I am full.
3/4 way through the movie you went "你不要看的話可以出去啊!"
(Translate: "If you don't wanna watch you can go out")
WTF was that about? I didn't do anything! I didn't even yawn or anything!
What could I have said? So I kept quiet anyway...
Don't wanna fight with you again...
Should have just continued ignoring you tonight.
Maybe other people might not think there's anything wrong.
The problem doesn't lie with what you said,
It lies with the tone of voice you said it in.
When will you learn to actually communicate with people?

Times like this. He's missed even more.
