So I'm into Week 2 of my holiday and I have to say so far, it's been HELLA AWESOME!! In the span of nearly 2 weeks, I've done the following [in no particular order]:
1. Gone clubbing [and in the midst of it, watched the Brazil-Portugal game]
Check me out... I'm a nerd!! And I'm drinking!!! *shock horror*
2. Watched 'Shrek 4' and 'Toy Story 3' in 3D. Feel like such a kid again.
3. I've drank chai tea [TWICE!!] at 3 Monkeys. Love love love that place.
4. Bought tickets to Owl City. It's not 'til November so I'm gonna cry if I end up having an exam that night.
5. Finally went to a football game and sat right at the 50m line. Great view and great atmosphere!! Would've been better if Broncos won though =( Stupid last min try!!!!!!!!!!!
6. Went to Ron Mueck and even got to check out parts of the Art Gallery. Love getting my art on.
Being tourists outside GOMA... love it!
7. Have watched more sports than you can poke a stick at. World Cup, rugby league, Wimbledon, you name it, I've probably watched it.
8. Caught up with a fair few of my friends.
Still so much to look forward to. Things are looking up for me!!
What will REALLY make my holiday is:
~ if Argentina win their game tonight. GO ARGENTINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~ if I get my special exam on the 21st July.
~ if I can get my finances back on track.
~ if I get the marks I want on Wednesday.
~ if I can get my room clean. Like CLEAN.
~ if something unexpected happens. In a good way of course. Could do with a good twist of fate.
I'm on such a high right now. Might be 'cause I'm cranking 'Fireflies' by Owl City on repeat.
1. What a horrible series of unfortunate events.
2. How can we be friends?
It just don't make sense,
You're just too damn beautiful,
You make it impossible,
You make it impossible not to fall...
3. Nothing like a hermit session to get a little perspective.
4. Can't wait 'til the whole ordeal is over.
5. Can't even finish exams in peace... ARGH!!!
6. I wanna tell you so badly, but no words will come out.
7. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. *breathes in and out*
8. I fooled everyone and now what will i become?
I have to start this over...
9. And now to play the waiting game. Many, many games.
10. ZOMG, I have a LOT of work to do to get you back into shape.
11. Sorry to hear the bad news. Remember, you're headed for way better things.
12. Haven't had a proper chance to say congrats. Celebration is overdue.
13. I'm here for you no matter what you decide. Bitches stick together.
14. What do I want to do???
15. The tables seem to have turned. SIGH.
16. Still spending money like no tomorrow. Must. Stop.
17. Can't wait to hang out with you. Fun(ny) times must be had.
18. Love love love. Thanks for the chats and randomness.
19. Gotta stop playing the blame game.
20. ZOMG, it's been too long. Catch up is long, long, long overdue.
21. I'm going down, I'll be coming back fighting,
I may be scared and a little bit frightened,
But I'll be back, I'll be coming back to life,
I'll be coming back to life...22. Good luck. Add oil. Will see you all at the finish line soon.
23. Holy crap, I only have a week to make my list!!!!!!!!!!
I made a sudden realisation today.
In the midst of all the craziness and the drama out there, I've lost sight of who I really am.
There's only so much you can take and keep bottled up before you ultimately crack.
I've really thrown myself in the deep end here and I can't stop drowning.
As Coldplay so rightly sings out:
In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost, oh yeah...
I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah...
After a really eye-opening talk with one of my closest friends, I realised I'm just avoiding what's on my mind and distracting myself with everybody else's drama.
So that's it. No more drama for me.
Must deal with what's going on alone with just my thoughts and surrounding exam notes.
Must keep the focus. Gotta keep it simple.
So the social butterfly is going into hiding.
I've deactivated the FB account and probably won't be on MSN for quite a while.
But don't worry, I'm endeavouring to come out of all of this with a smile on my face, a clear head and high hopes for the future.
Stay tuned for a new and improved me.
A last note to everyone:
For the uni students, good luck for your exams.
For the full-timers, enjoy and make the most of your long weekend.
It's come to that time.
I am sick. ONCE AGAIN!!!
I swear I don't get sick this often. Don't even know how this came about!!
In the midst of my illness, I've noticed a few things:
1. I'm more caring and less bitchy.
2. I think about things more than normal.
3. I'm always craving what I can't have. Things like chocolate, coffee, hot chocolate, chips, pearl tea, etc etc.
Probably not the best time to blog considering I'm WAY behind in my lecture recordings but meh, this will be more interesting to read in the end than my lecture notes.
So I was thinking about some of the conversations I've had with friends lately. I actually think I've changed heaps over the last month. If you don't talk to me on a regular basis, you probably wouldn't have noticed. For those who dunno, long story cut short, I HAVE A DARK SIDE. I didn't think it was that bad at first but I think I've suppressed it all these years until now. Don't even know what triggered it. And for the record, I don't like it. It's created a lotta uncertainty in myself and it's really been an eye-opener. Dunno what to do...
On the bright side, my one month ban on shopping for myself and Maccas ends today. Hurrah!! I'm grabbing Maccas for lunch and gonna shop with Mummy dearest at the Myer stocktake sale preview tomorrow night.
I thought this was gonna be a longer blog post but I got side-tracked by other things. Maybe I'll elaborate when I'm not in so much of a coughing fit.
1. 'Don't make someone a priority if they only make you an option.' Rings way too true in my opinion.
2. Really want a change of scenery soon.
3. It's a bit chilly.
4. Am I hooked? If I am, frick on a stick with a brick.
5. Even though it was the first and last time, I'm so glad I went.
6. I don't wanna be your doormat anymore. It's just not worth it.
7. The cynic inside has come back. Awesome.
8. Even though I don't see you as much as I used to, you always know how to get me laughing and get my mind off things.
9. Can't please anyone if I can't please myself first.
10. Another crap exam timetable. SIGH.
11. Taking one for the team is gayness up the anus.
12. Why does emotion always trump logic? Why why why why why???
13. What a surprise. Did better than expected.
14. Ahhh... where are you when I need you? I need to spill my guts.
15. Well, I won't be the one to disappoint you anymore...
16. This better be worth it all. I'm gonna be annoyed if it doesn't work out.
17. Please don't do me any favours. I'm really not worth it.
18. Get me some loud rock music please.
19. Sometimes I wish I had your mentality. Stupid, complex mind of mine.
20. Freakin' make up your mind. Even I'm getting annoyed.
21. Will be so glad when this is over tomorrow.
22. Wish I could just stay in bed all day and night. It means I won't have to deal with anything. Just sleep.
23. I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this...
Check me out... I'm a nerd!! And I'm drinking!!! *shock horror*
Being tourists outside GOMA... love it!
