i cbb to go to sleep. im going to be so tired tomorrow.
omgosh blogging owns.
because i have not been tagged in fb, i will do this on my blog. yay!
So you know the deal.. these notes have been circulating Facebook and no one is immune. If you're tagged, it means I'd like to know more about you. So write a similar 25-thing note and tag me back please. Oh and 24 other people.
The first 25 things that pop into my head..
- i pee lots. obviously after lots of water has been drunk but even when it hasnt, i pee a lot. ask my school friends esp jenifer because she also pees a lot.
- i want a cat, an orange tabby cat. i'd call it clementine. except i dont want one because i will be devastated if it dies and cats die way earlier than humans.
- my english teachers have said im quite good at writing and i did undertake english ext 2 but after graduating from high school, i have no written a single original piece. its so hard to find inspiration and i dont think my writing is very good.
- which leads to the next point, i have low self esteem. i acknowledge it but its quite the bane of my existence.
- i like boys. i have since i was 4 and married james in preschool, the cutest boy of the class. and in year 1 there was eric where we'd hold hands during the walk from our class to assembly.
- my favourite form of jewellery are rings. i quite like kitschy rings and some of my favourites are a plastic red ring shaped like a heart, a knitted pink/red flower shaped one and a rubber one shaped as a cat also known as CAT POWER (more than meets the eye).
- i used to love all things asian in up until the end of year 10 where franz ferdinand was played and i fell in love with a whole different world.
- i am an ebay whore. mainly for clothes, but whore nonetheless. most of my more interesting clothes are from ebay.
- i have a habit of using a particular word or phrase over and over again for a period of time until something clicks in my head and i stop.
- i used to not swear but now i do. and badly. especially when im agitated.
- ive been driving for more than three years and am on my full licence but i hate it and im also not very good at it either.
- i hate doing necessary activities such as showering and sleeping and peeing. of course i do do it but they all seem like such a waste of time.
- i dont have a hero or anyone i aspire to. the closest person to someone i hold to a pedastel and aim to be like would be my dad. he's stoic and doesn't say much but you can see that hes a self-sacrificing, self-sufficient, loving man and even though he barely completed high school in vietnam (this being his only form of education), hes smart.
- i love films but ive barely seen any. its quite embarrassing when someone asks if ive seen this or this or that because the answer is usually no.
- i love musicals. musical films (moulin rouge being my absolute favourite and i do really like once) and musical episodes (buffy, scrubs, dr horrible). i just love the idea a incorporating music into film so intensely and completely.
- i've wanted to be so many things but the very first thing i remember i want to be is a doctor, even since i was 4. i read somewhere that what you first want to be kind of stays with you throughout your life, in regards to your other ambitions. although im studying to become a lawyer, i still desire to help people, which was my main motivation of wanting to be a doctor when i was young.
- if i had to choose between tv shows and films, i'd have an ultra hard time. but i have tv shows would ultimately win because i love how theres always story development and character development and you learn more about these fictional people and grow to love/hate them more/less. that being said, i have a secret wish that stars hollow was a real place and rory and lorelai and lane and sookie would be my best friends.
- i dont read very much - im a very picky reader, tending to read classics and literature. two of my favourite books has to be 1984 by george orwell and atonement by ian mcewan.
- i want to do so many things but never really do because i lack the time and the money and the discipline to actually do it. right now, the things i want to do are: buy a guitar and learn to play, fix my bike, shorten my skirts, make a laptop bag and make various foods at home but i know im not going to be able to complete these before the holidays and once uni begins, there will be no time to do them.
- if i could choose a degree again it would probably be media arts and production/international studies at uts.
- i hate it when people touch my feet and i hate it even MORE when people touch my feet with theirs. YUCK.
- i have a teddy bear that ive had since i was 3. she's yellow, with kind brown eyes, a nose shaped like a fan, red thread as a mouth and stuffing coming out of her left side and her right arm and she sleeps with me every night.
- i love magazines. the pretty glossy pages, the fact that i can count on them coming out every month/two months and the little interesting things written all attract me like a fly to honey.
- i dont think most people i meet, dont see for a while, then see again remember anything about me. so its awfully awkward when i see them again and do remember them because i dont know what i should do or say.
- im incredibly tight with food and parking but not so with clothes, magazines and cds. im willing to spend $50 on a pretty dress, but my limit for lunch is $5.
that was so much fun. i kinda like to talk about myself.
hahahaha.

'LIFE', THE SOUNDTRACK.
Stole this from land (i cbb to edit too much. credit for most of writing: land)
Basically, it's called the "Soundtrack to your Life". Set your music player to random then fill out the categories. Stick a comment about the songs if you can. And no cherry picking songs!
Opening Credits: walking - the dodos
Man's been wasting so much time
Sending the children out to fight
Don't you think maybe it's about time?
fo shiz. do something, stop wasting time, live life.
Waking Up: fake plastic trees - radiohead
beautiful song. its how you feel when you wake up from a beautiful dream and form a sad realisation re: your life. lols.
First Day At School: woman - wolfmother
lols.
Falling In Love: venus in furs - the velvet underground
shiny shiny
shiny bits of leather
a song about sadomasochism!
HAHAHAHA.
Losing Virginity: corona radiata - nine inch nails
instrumental. dark, minimalist, grungy, urban. interesting.
Fight Song: this moment - stefanie sun
lols again! but appropriate, it talks about being strong. booyah.
Breaking Up: in the mausoleum - beirut
appropriate.
Debs/Prom/whatever you call it: new york city cops - the strokes
itd be awesome if my prom was like this song.
Life: long hot summer night - jimi hendrix
im so glad that my babys comin to rescue me
Mental Breakdown: the devil never sleeps - iron & wine
ah yes.
Flashback: dandy - herman's hermits
all your little life, youre chasing all the girls, they cant resist your smile, they long for dandy. DANDY.
if only, except reverse girls with boys.
Wedding: wild strawberries - pnau
i'd rather go and pick some of those wild strawberries
bad sign.
Birth of Child: shrinking universe - muse
cant you see its over because youre the god of a shrinking universe
i think thats how it would seem when you have a kid if youre cynical and dont really want one. i do though :)
Final Battle: the fever - the von bondies
i'd win the fucking war with this song.
Death Scene: set phasers to sun - taking back sunday
im sorry it took me so long
hahahaha. also, i do not listen to taking back sunday. it is just on my macbook. honest.
Funeral Song: body in a box - city and colour
THIS IS FREAKY. so i will post all lyrics:
There's a funeral procession on the highway,
Traffic screeches to a halt.
There's people searching for a better way,
To live their lives.
Johnny lived a good life, you'll hear them say
As tears of sadness soak the ground.
The reaper crept in, took his breath away,
In the middle of the night.
We celebrate the lives of the dead,
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.
We gather 'round to pay our respects,
While their souls are still searching for the light,
Searching for the light.
So please don't come to me on my dying day,
Just let me go in peace.
With all the things that I forgot to say,
Racing through my mind.
And don't you bury me six feet under ground,
Just burn my body in a box.
And let my ashes blow with the wind,
Out into the night sky.
but change johnny to serena. creeeeeeeepy.
End Credits: my sentimental friend - hermans hermits
perfect.
p.s. i have such low self esteem. i kind of loathe myself. i can see it becoming a real problem.

more dotpoints:

- crackers and tzatziki and hommous are also amazing. esp tzatziki because it has cucumber. cucumbers are so good. you get hydrated without drinking water because its 93% water! also theyre super yummy.

since i posted a blog entry. most of it can be chalked up to this: i cbb.
god im so tired. my whole body aches and i have no idea why because its not like ive been doing strenuous activities. unless i have diabetes and i still haven't given up that theory!
im terrible on msn. i havent been on in like 4 months and now im on and im saying stuff that sounds weird and stupid. like when i meet someone new and its all awkward and BLERGH. verbal diarhoea (omg cannot spell it).
i tried diary writing but it was too hard. writing is so much effort. i dont know how i churned out so many pages during the hsc (yes i do, by being compelled by my asianness and lots of study). anyhow, that is over.
my holidays have been very very very good so far. but the sad thing is im only getting one or two shifts a week at work so most of the days, i am not at work. and that makes the holidays seem longer and kind of boring. i now understand why people want uni to come and think three months is too long. it is because they are unemployed or have few shifts and lots and lots of time.
if i had to sum up my holidays in ten dotpoints only (this being a challenge) it would be like this:
- melbourne is so awethome esp brunswick road, cafes, graffiti, film museum, amazing looking people (camping store gumboot guy <3) and ease of parking and driving. except for weird right turns. oh and falls is in victoria so that kinda counts except damn them bogans and the fucking cold (foetal position)
- franz ferdinand are kings (of my heart and the worlddddddd as cheesy as that sounds)
- gigs at oaf are now kind of disappointing for the last two i have seen, the singers have been disappointed by the lameass crowd
- scrubs is almost on a par with gilmore girls in my book and i can now QUOTE. it is terrible for other to hear. but DO YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET WOMAN? DO YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU MESS WITH THE WARRIOR? and and eageleeeeee and hellloooo!
- swimming + sauna + park. although it was only once it was awesome because it was the first time i really swam since year 7 swim school. and the park because its so nice to just get active and also chill with friends in a park which is rarely done.
- hot hot hot hot hot then rain.
- lots of food with friends. esp pasta
- many a movie was watched, most notably the harry potter movies. and that lead tor eading the books. the 7th one is amazing! except for the stupid ending.
- drumming
- man i thought i had ten. this would be the tenth: making various clothing
and because i know david and wendy dont read this i can say it here: side with each other ALL THE TIME why dont you. fucking oath. im a horrid third wheel.
amanda and joanne (im so used to it) came over today and we talked for 7 hours and that was all. crazy!
