Thursday, October 16, 2008
I wish the real world would just stop hassling me...
and u know what? i've completely wasted my sem so far doing stuff i shouldn't have been doing...
so what have i got to show for it?
1. quite a big credit card bill
2. a LOT of classes i have to catch up on b4 SWOTVAC
3. an even messier room
but thinking positively, i've had some great times and great convos with some great friends so i shouldn't complain all that much hehe
a thought just occurred to me... this week has been all about cars!! i've heard 4 stories so far about cars in the following order:
1. a friend of mine got into their 2nd accident this yr...
2. a friend of mine got a brand new car...
3. a friend of mine is getting a new car thanks to their bro...
4. a friend of mine's car died on them tonite...
i've been inspired to take up reading again and my current read is 'The Facebook Book'... thanks to Anna for the lovely b'day pressie hehe it's a pretty funni read... i'd probably understand more if i was American but meh, it has its moments... i hope i can finish reading it tonite!!
another thing i've gotten back into is 'Balls of Steel'... was watching it on TV tonite and it's funni as hell... i'm usually not a fan of British humour but this is hilarious... and i thought Chasers was pretty hardcore with their pranks... personal faves r the Militant Black Guy and Alex Zane's game shows =)
okies, i'll stop being random now... i think it's all the coffee i've drank or all the food i ate... i've gained weight again >_<"
oh yeah, for those who r wondering about the title of the blog... it's just a reference to 'Real World' by Matchbox Twenty... been listening to their album lately =P

What do u do...
+ when it all gets too hard?
+ when u've forgotten the last time u were truly happy?
+ when u dunno how to fix things?
+ when u want to turn to ur support network but can't?
i don't just want someone to tell me it's all gonna be okies... there needs to be proof...
pplz rely too much on the words of other pplz... and i've made that mistake too many times...
one lesson that i'll never forget: ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

Thursday, September 18, 2008
Just some thoughts...
i was sitting by the UQ lakes on Tues when i thought about this blog so pretty much what i'm typing in italics is from my thoughts on Tues... here goes...
i currently have 'Iris' by the Goo Goo Dolls on repeat on my iPod and i think it reflects my mood quite perfectly...
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am...
i got dragged outta my house at 1am last nite to take a walk around the lake and i swear, there's something about being around water that gets me all reflective... or maybe it's the company... then again, i'm sitting by the UQ lakes as i write this so i think it's just the water hehe
a lotta things were brought up during this walk, one of which was my current state of mind... i got asked whether i believed in fate/destiny and i replied by saying that i didn't... that sorta set the rest of my convo in motion... do i just follow what everybody else thinks? am i that easy to manipulate? i've always been one to take everyone else's thoughts into consideration, but did i lose my own thoughts, my own point of view along the way?
it's kinda depressing when u don't believe in anything anymore... i've always been a bit of a cynic when it comes to some things but when it gets to the point where u feel like there's not much hope in anything, then that's a real worry...
*sighs* i hate the complexities of life... i reckon the happiest pplz r those who live the simple life or have a good support network that help them get through the highs and lows... since i'll never think of life as being a simple construct, i'll aim for the latter...
find out what i believe in...
find out what makes me happy...
then i'll build a bridge and get over my insecurities...
i'll be strong [at least emotionally]...
and i'll finally be happy... not 'cause i have to be but 'cause i want to be =)
i'd write more here but i'm getting sleepy... i'll write the rest of my thoughts later
Sunday, August 31, 2008

各位觀眾。。。四條七!!!
so what's with the title of my blog? for those who can't read Chinese, basically the title means "ladies and gentlemen... four 7's!!!" as far as i know, this phrase is meant to be a motivation for one of my law friends... and if she's reading this, i know she's capable of achieving that this sem... she's a very, very smart girl!!! should be a motivation for me too but i'm not smart enough to do THAT well with my subs even though i'm doing decently so far this sem...
u know what that phrase in the title of my blog reminds me of? if anyone's ever seen 賭俠, there's a scene where 周星馳 and 吳孟達 go to see 劉德華 to show off 周星馳's special skills... after seeing 劉德華 carve out 4 aces with a knife, 周星馳 reaches into the pocket of 吳孟達 and announces: "各位觀眾... 五條烟!" and instead of pulling out 5 aces, he pulls out 5 cigarettes XD for those of u who don't get the joke, the character for "aces" and "cigarettes" is exactly the same and is also pronounced the same... it's a freakin' hilarious scene hehe
okies, i have no idea what the point of this blog was... just procrastinating i guess hehe best of luck to everyone for exams... 加油!!!
Thursday, May 29, 2008
I miss my girls...
what i wanna talk about in this blog is that i've noticed lately that i've been spending a lot more time with my guy friends... it's not exactly strange territory hanging out with guys 'cause i do have my fair share of guy friends but i'm not really used to hanging out with such an array of guy friends... and b4 pplz start jumping to conclusions, i'm not dating any of these guys... i'm only a little concerned now 'cause i reckon they have a bit of an influence on me and i wanna retain as much girliness as possible hehe
i got a little sentimental and was looking through some old photos on my comp... i used to hang out with my girls all the time and now, it seems like i'm reduced to seeing them at b'day parties or just bumping into them... i really miss u all... we have to organise some kinda girls nite out sometime this holz... or we can make it a cozy thing and just catch up in a small group or 1 on 1 over dinner and/or coffee... either way, i'm making the plea to my girlfriends to find some time to catch up with me... i'm totally up for it... the guys can be easily ditched hehe [to my guy friends reading this, u know i'm j/k... i love ur company =P]

Short[ish] and sweet
gonna keep all my sentences in this blog short and sweet today 'cause i cbb writing a long essay of what i did like with my last blog and i'm sure i'd bore u guys out newayz hehe
i FINALLY watched Iron Man last nite!!
it was freakin' awesome... even watched the proper ending after the credits... thanks so much GY for taking me to see it... even after all the paying out about not having anyone to see it with hehe
i've been a bit PMSed lately... it's pretty hard to tell most of the time but when i'm at home, my feelings seem to be all outta whack... it sucks =(
spent 3 days straight working and it was actually quite fun despite the hustle and bustle... i've met a few of the newbies and they're quite nice... i enjoy the work atmosphere more now after more than 2 yrs working there hehe
it's fun messing with pplz's minds... after telling everyone i was engaged on MSN last week, i've been bombarded with msgs from pplz either congratulating me or telling me what a big idiot i am for getting engaged so early hehe
for those of u who dunno why i'm suddenly "engaged", it kinda sprang from a convo i had with CC last week... we were commenting about how pplz don't take their relationship statuses on facebook seriously so we figured we'd mess around by saying we were engaged... stay tuned... we'll probably be married soon =P
fave song of the moment: Elevator - Flo Rida feat. Timbaland "she's stuck on my ela-e-elevator"
man, that song is addictive!!! ^__^
a BBQ tomorrow, 21st on Fri, 21st on Sun and assignment due on Mon... i'm gonna be one busy girl this week!!!
okies, that's enough randomness from me today... have a good week everyone!!!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Best long weekend... EVER!!!
following lunch, i had a good catchup session with Kitty while we went shopping b4 leaving for QUT to meet up with the poker folks... poker was all well and good until i found out that my venue leader status is now ruined 'cause of Cam!! stupid turtling tactics on the final table hehe ur ass is mine this Fri!!!
after catching a free ride to the City thanks to Deeks, i headed to Viv's belated b'day party where we had the yummiest food... all i have to say is i'm glad i'm not allergic to seafood =) the b'day cake was really nice too!! took lotsa random photos that nite... here's a selection from GY's pro camera
after Viv's party, i met up with my new gambling buddy Khoi for some late nite casino-ing... wasn't such a great nite for me but Khoi somehow regained all his money that he lost PLUS won some money... i swear, he's the most hardcore gambler i know hehe
Sat started off with work for half the day, then a quick catchup with CC at the Myer Centre food court b4 going to Jobee's 21st... another AHS reunion!! i'm pretty sure Jobee's 21st ended up being the biggest AHS reunion i've been to so far... caught up with some of the pretty ladies i haven't seen in a little while... probably went a little silly on the dancefloor thanks to some of the drinks i had... most of which was water hehe thanks to CC, Jobee and Mimi for the photos!!
after a series of msging back and forth throughout the nite, my poker addict buddies managed to get me away from Jobee's 21st for a late poker nite [btw Jobee, if u're reading this, I'M SO SORRY FOR LEAVING WITHOUT SAYING GOODBYE!!! i feel so bad =(]... played 2 rounds of poker and ended up not winning or losing any money... good thing is, i found my dress that i left at Cam's 21st... stupid idiot didn't even bother looking for me >_<"
Sun started off with another half day of work b4 bumming with GY around Indro and then heading to Taiki's place for his random gaming nite... played a round of Trauma Centre and i suck so bad at it... then played a round of Kabookii with Dave, CC and Taiki and i swear, that game is soooooooooo rigged!!! i was on the verge of winning and then Dave somehow racked up all these points and won >_<" then, it was a couple of hrs of Mario Kart on Wii... that game's quite fun even though i suck at racing games... i can see why it's so popular hehe after lotsa pizza eating and another round of poker [where i got my money back AGAIN], Taiki and i bummed a lift off Quinton to Bounce ^^
got to Mystique and the line was surprisingly not that long... after seeing all the BSA pplz while in the line, Taiki and i managed to score free entry thanks to Viv!! got into the club, went upstairs to suss the place out, had a couple of drinks and managed to see not 1, but 2 fights going on... it was actually pretty cool... Taiki and i kept going "fight, fight, fight, fight" hehe saw so many pplz throughout the nite and kept club hopping from Mystique to Planet and back... probably spent the majority of the time at Planet 'cause the music and atmosphere was better... nearly got stranded at the Valley when i found out at around 2:30am that our ride home had already left!! good thing he came back... thanks GY =) overall, one of the best clubbing experiences i've ever had... thanks to all the BSA crew for making Bounce the success that it was!! look forward to the next Bounce event hehe photos from Bounce r courtesy of Jaqui!!
that's it from me... more exciting adventures in store soon ^^
