Hello, my name is Angie. And I'm a bitchaholic.
Over the years, I never thought of myself as very bitchy. Even though I went to an all girls' school and such, I always thought I turned out OK in the bitch department. Maybe I just compared myself to some REALLY bitchy people and just thought 'Yeah, I'm definitely not as bitchy as her. I'm fine'.
Lately, my cynical side has come back to haunt me and unleashed a big can of bitchass. I'm sorry if I've offended anyone recently with the stuff I've said or done. I'll make it up to you soon enough!! I'm a big believer in karma so if I've done wrong by you, tell me or I'm gonna be cursed for a while!!!
Anyway, onto other things, I FINISHED BRIDGE TO BRISBANE today!!! Go Team Mad Sea hehe

Definitely up for it again next year!!! Still can't believe I can walk 5km in less than an hour. I really need to go out walking more and get back to proper exercise. Whip this lazy ass into shape hehe
Also got to catch up with my girly girls today for a nice picnic in New Farm Park. Always a pleasure and always so much fun talking and laughing about each other, guys, everything!! Hoping we all get to catch up again soon and can't wait to see all the photos =)
Sleepy time, need more sleep!!! Note to self: less 4:30am sleep times, more 8+ hr sleeps.

August, how i hate thee...
Not sure whether many people know this, but I've always had this hateful relationship with the month of August. I dunno whether it's just coincidence or plain bad luck, but bad things always seem to happen to me during this month. Deaths, farewells, frantic assignment doing/exam studying, you name it, it's probably happened.
Main thing I have to complain about this month is my grad applications. I had two weeks to do them but knowing my last minute nature, I left it to the last two days to do them. Sent them all out with time to spare only to find out that my penultimate year [which I said in my cover letters that I was in] is actually my SECOND LAST YEAR, not my final year. I could've died. Oh well, I'm over it now. Bring on the rejections and I'll soon be welcoming unemployment with open arms in the next few months. Moral of the story: don't try to sound smart.
In other news, I'm frantically trying to catch up on everything. Doing 5 subjects in my final semester of uni is starting to take its toll on me. I've been bitchier than usual, venting about things I normally wouldn't even make a big deal over and all I was doing about it up until the last couple of days was avoiding it all and distracting myself.
Then again, I always like a good distraction. Here's a snapshot of my distractions in August:
There's also been some yum cha-ing, Ikea strolling, football game watching, catch ups and the like. I really should take happy snaps again. Maybe when September rolls around. 11 days left of August!!! HELL YEAH!!! =)

Catharsis 23 - August
1. Grad applications. You'll be the death of me.
2. The song always ends but is that any reason not to enjoy the music?
3. Funny how a supposedly minor event can have such major repercussions.
4. Is it so hard for a good thing to just stay the way it is?
5. So glad you're back. People don't always leave after all.
6. Quit playing games with my heart. It's not fun anymore.
7. It's so easy to play the blame game when you don't know the full story.
8. Season 3 of One Tree Hill = Best. Season. Ever.
9. Except it's making me more emo and angry than usual.
10. I could really use a hug and the reassurance that everything will be OK in the end.
11. Shouldn't be so bitter with you. At least you're happy.
12. Am I that protective of you or am I just scared that you'll leave me behind?
13. Never used to be that superstitious. I think I am now.
14. 1 down, 22 to go.
15. Please stop pissing me off. I may actually stop talking to you one day.
16. Since when did time decide to fast forward really quickly?
17. Well baby I got news for you
It's time to get a taste of your own medicine...
18. Still don't like you August despite the good times I've had so far.
19. Back to being #2 on everyone's list again.
20. I've gotta get a stress-free, worry-free sleep one of these days.
21. Need to start writing stuff down again.
22. I'd so down a block of chocolate if I wasn't feeling so fat right now. SIGH.
23. I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did...

Blogging is so hot right now
Lacking in ideas for a creative title for tonight's blog. Meh.
Figured I'd get my blogging on since I had a pretty cool day even though I didn't do a whole lot. Did a little study, took in the company of my darling niece [when she wasn't crying], enjoyed the fresh [but hella cold] air while watching 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' at King George Square and tried [but failed completely] at playing Wii games at Anne's brother's place.
Also finished off my nails with a little top coat. This is my colour of choice at the moment:
I think I had a run of good luck today. Firstly, both the teams I tipped for footy won. I also finally stopped playing the waiting game and found out the date of my special exam.
Wednesday 21st July at 8am.
HELL YEAH!!! I guess UQ's good to me after all by not getting in the way of my Sydney trip!!! Now I gotta make sure I don't get stuck in traffic AGAIN and that this trip is le awesome since I seem to be missing out on a fair few events. Why must everything fall on those few days?! *sighs*
I only have a few days left of holidays and I have to say, this is possibly the best holiday I've had. Despite it being cut short due to my special exam and doing 2 subjects at QUT this semester, it's been a blast. I never would have guessed that my holiday would be filled with such variety, such unexpected news and such a weird, twisted turn of events.
Looking back at what I wanted for the rest of this holiday:
~ Argentina didn't end up winning the World Cup but I guess I'm glad Germany didn't win either.
~ I got my special exam on the 21st of July. Now I just gotta ace it.
~ My finances are on its way back on track and the money is flowing in. Love it.
~ I got the marks I wanted pending what I get for this special exam.
~ My room isn't yet clean but I'm planning to get to it after I wake up.
~ Something unexpected did happen. And not just to me. Now just gotta wait and see how this situation works out. Stay tuned!!!
OK, better get some shut eye. There was a reason I didn't go clubbing tonight.

Baby I'm getting better...
The title of today's blog serves 2 purposes:
1. To highlight that I'm actually recovering from my minor illness [Frick on a stick, I'm sick for the third time this year... it's a record!!!]
2. To let the world know that the new and improved me is back and better than ever!!!
So the title of today's blog [as are a lotta my blog titles] comes from a song by Gyroscope. Unlike the song, I don't owe my change in outlook to a single person in particular, but a few people who've put a lotta things into perspective for me. And for that, I'd like to say a few brief thank yous.
+ Thanks for being my kindred spirit. It's freakishly cool knowing that there's actually people out there who just get me and who I can just get.
+ Thanks for reminding me that it's OK to be emotionally vulnerable and that there's always a positive way of looking at a seemingly negative situation.
+ Thanks for not letting time ruin what an awesome bond we have.
+ Thanks for always saving me from myself and knowing the right things to say.
+ Thanks for just being you. It's good to know that some things don't ever change after all this time we've known each other.
+ Thanks for being a breath of fresh air and expanding my horizons. It's great to know that there are people out there who do live outside the square.
+ Thanks for listening and for looking out for me. We may not always see eye to eye about everything, but knowing you care and take time out for me is always appreciated.
On a related note, thanks to the encouragement of family and friends plus a bit of self-motivation, I've been trying to get my life re-sorted. I've already started by cleaning up my closet and bathroom [still got the lounge and bedroom to go] and trying to take regular walks. Once my financial situation is back on track, I can get around to sorting my money-related things like debts and finally saving up for a trip at the end of the year!! Don't worry, I have it all written down on my to-do list for the rest of 2010 =)
Would like to babble on some more but my attention span in writing blogs seems to get shorter and shorter at the years go by. I'll leave my dear readers with a recommended movie: 500 Days of Summer!!! Probably one of the best movies I've seen in a while and quite a frontrunner as one of my fave films. Highly recommended for those who want a movie outta the ordinary and want a movie that actually speaks to reality and to the heart. Watch it!!! Do ittttttttttt *shakes fist*
