It's strange how some days of the holidays can be so damn boring and then BOOM, you find out that your whole week is already filled out.

E.g. my schedule for this week:

Tuesday: Livo?
Wednesday: Going to the city with friends and cousins
Thursday: Grandpa's funeral Part I
Friday: Grandpa's funeral Part II
Saturday: A free day I think
Sunday: HOMEBUSH SWIMMING!!

Btw Bonnie, my phone contacts have magically reappeared :D Seems like your advice of waving a broken branch over my phone worked! :O

I wanted to write more for this blog post but I'm feeling really lazy right now...
I'll just leave you with my daily desktop calender quote (DDCQ):

"Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it" - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I shall leave you to ponder that - cuz I don't even understand it myself.

Just a recap of some things I did on New Years Eve/New Years Day.

I cooked food. Yep. You heard right. And there was no cornflour involved 8) I made Aussie beef burgers with Nanc and they actually tasted nice. MUHAHAHA. That's another thing I can add to my list of thingsthatactuallydon'ttastehorriblewhenIcookthem. Add that to the cupcakes and my list now has a grand total of ....... 2.

Tian and Amy cooked kebab/kebob sticks. They were alright but I didn't like the capsicum.

CK and Yuan worked together and made punch and crepe suzettes. The crepes tasted..... eheh.. but the punch was good. At first, Yuan kept scooping giant pieces of fruit out of the watermelon and rockmelon and I was like, "What are you doing? They're supposed to be cubed." but whatever. Actually, now that i think about it, I'm not exactly sure what went into the punch >_>

Yesterday, I went to Othilia's house with Tian. We only spent a few hours there but it was fun cuz we watched this funny/retarded movie. Now I can't stop saying, "Hey Tian, wanna play battleshits?" :L We then went to McDonalds and sat in our signature spot - right in front of the toilets. Yeaahhhh.

  Be a braver person - I mean that in the sense that I won't let what other people think get me down. Every year, my dad gets me a desktop calender. It's a calender thing that has pages for every day of the year. I've just opened mine and the quote says: "Resolve to be thyself; and know that he who finds himself loses his misery." I'm not exactly sure what it means but it has something to do with being yourself (?)
• Excercise more - aka stop being such a lardass and go bike riding with Othilia or something.
• Stop being so judgemental of other people. It's a really bad habit that I have and I should really stop doing it.
• Last but not least: Be a nicer person. Pretty self explanatory.

It's a pretty demanding list but as I said, I'm going to try. Once again, Happy New Year everyone!

- is the book that I'm gonna write one day. Not being racist or anything, but it would make an interesting book. I could look at the stereotypes that surround asian people these days and deduct whether they are plausible or not.

You know that girl from Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging? You know how she said her parent's are the most embarassing parents on Earth? Well, I beg to differ. Her parents weren't asian >_>

As far as asian parents go though, mine are alright I guess. Like they speak English but they can't seem to get rid of that accent. And yes, I'm afraid that stereotype that asian parents push their kids into doing maths or science is true. I mean, why do you think so many people at CVH are doing science and maths while not that many are doing English advanced or history? Personally, I just want to do something non-boring and earn lots and lots of $$$$$$$$$$ :p and get an apartment in the city.

I went to Cabra today to get a haircut. My hair looks the same, something that I'm happy about. Thank god, the hairdresser didn't just take out a pair of giant scissors and go SNIP! I don't know- I feel traumatised when they cut off too much. The last hairdresser I went to did that and I ended up wishing for her hair to turn green and fall off.

After that, we went to my piano teacher's house to drop off a Xmas present. Yes, you heard that right. I was FORCED to do that, okay? I'm not the type of person to go giving out christmas presents to teachers but apparently my mum is. Urrgh, I felt like such an idiot standing there with the present when the teacher opened up the door. I seriously wanted to smash the thing on my mum's head and go, "YOU CRAZY WOMAN, WHY'D YOU MAKE ME DO THIS?!"

Sadly, I didn't.

Last night, Tian and Yuan came over and we watched "The Nightmare Before Christmas" on the projector thingy. It was alright... kind of boring though. I was comparing it to one of Tim Burton's later works "The Corpse Bride" and I guess I was expecting it to be really good. Oh well. After that, we youtubed "1234-Feist on Sesame St" and watched that as well :L Manly came over and he was like, "Are you serious? Why're you watching this for? Go search up fat kids on youtube."

So we took his advice and did that. HAHAHAHA. We weren't being mean, we were just really really bored. There was one where this Chubby lil' boy was singing some cutesy song and it full cracked me up. He was so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuute. His cheeks were like APPLES.

I'm gonna try to blog more in the holidays but sometimes there's just so much to say that I can't be bothered. This post is gonna be written while I do my tutor homework so bear with me.

Yesternight, I was on www.isketch.net . For those who don't know what it is, it's like a game site where you can verse other ppl around the world at a guessing/drawing game. The players take turns drawing stuff and you have to guess it. It's SERIOUSLY ADDICTIVE. Anyways, the room I joined had an Indian dude and white dude who kept saying racist stuff to each other. I kinda felt sorry for the Indian dude though cuz the white dude kept saying stuff like, "He can't draw, he's Indian!" Asshooooooooooole. I was tempted to say, "Hey, I'm Indian too and I whooped your ass in the last round."But I didn't, cuz that's just the kind of person I am - Too afraid to confront ppl, even if its in Cyberspace.

I just finished the Maximum Ride series that Elyn lent me (Thanks Elyn!). They were pretty good. Fang is like so HOT. Basically, they're about six kids who have wings and special powers. One of them can let out giant, disgusting farts. Awesomeness.

I managed to finish a 500 piece puzzle yesterday with the help of Juliana, Tian, Serena and Yuan while watching Ellen Degeneres (?). Well maybe not Yuan since all he did was try to force the pieces in. In the afternoon, I went over to Tian's house to continue playing guitar hero. Watching Scott sing is so LMAO. He's so... enthusiastic.

I know this is kinda late, but I've only just watched the Susan Boyle audition on youtube. HAHAHHAHA I full cracked up when she did the hip thingy and all the judges were like, "wtf?" She's weird but she sings so good :L I think part of her fame comes from the fact that she doesn't seem like she can sing good. Also she looks more like a 60-something rather than 47.

I think I'm out of things to do now :( Hence the tutoring hw. & I'm also too lazy to actually move my ass out of this townhouse. If anyone wants to mail me Sims 3: World Adventures, then by all means...

Yesterday night, Nancy, Tian, Amy, Yuan, Serena and I went to watch Avatar 3D at IMAX. Roxie's parents drove us there and paid for our tickets. That was our Xmas present :)




The movie started at 9:30pm and we got there at around 8:45. When we got to the city, Tian and I kept squealing over how pretty it was at night :L We kept pointing out different apartments that were going to be our future home. There was a really nice one near Chinatown but Tian didn't want to live near there. Why not?? We could grab chinese food in the middle of the night and Nancy could just walk to the nearest Korean store. Plus Chinatown is cheap. Isn't it?

Roxie's parents dropped us off near the Ferris Wheel place and told us to walk to IMAX ourselves. When the six of us got there, we sat on the benches near the harbour and tried not to stare at the couple that kept making out in front of us. I forgot how pretty Darling Harbour could be at night. The buildings are all lit up and there's people everywhere. We could hear music from the harbourside clubs and I suddenly had an image of myself spastic dancing at the Ice Lounge when I turn 18. Right Bonnie? ;)

We were stranded outside IMAX for like, 20 minutes because my aunt and uncle took forever to get there. They finally got here and then we went in. THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE. The movie was totally booked out and most of the people watching it were like 20-somethings so you can imagine how out of place six kids looked. Anyways, they opened the doors and we went in. Our seats were in row C which is like, near the front. God, my neck felt so cramped after 2 and a half hours of staring up at the screen.



It was an awesome movie though. If I had to describe it in one word, I would say "Epic", next up would be "blue". LOL. The visuals were STUNNING. I know the scenery and things were all computerized but still... I wouldn't mind living in Pandora. God, I wouldn't mind being blue if it meant that I could do all the cool things the characters did, such as flying, archery, etc. I think after a while, you kinda forget that being blue is abnormal and you start to see the characters as being normal people.

When the movie finished, Roxie's parents took us to a Chinese restaraunt in Chinatown and ate there. HAHHAHA. I was surprised that it was even open at 12:30am. I think some people were wondering why six, wet kids were even out at night in the city. We went home after that and I nearly fell asleep in the car. What a great start to the holidays :)

I don't know why but some people really seem to hate the holidays. What part of it don't you like? Is it the part where you don't get to do any school work? Is it because you just HATE sleeping in? Or do you just really really really want to go to school? I don't know man...

Anyways, I like 'em. Yesterday morning, before IMAX, I watched Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King with Tian and CK. Call me geeky, but it's one of my favourite movies =3 Gollum... so sexy man. But we kinda ruined the movie by butting in with retarded quotes. Like when Sam was holding onto Frodo's hand as he nearly fell off the cliff, we would say, "Hold me Jack!". HAHAHA....ha... ha. Geddit? No? Pffff, fine >_>

After that I went on net and printed out music sheets for LOTR music. That's one of my goals these holidays: learn how to play more songs. I learnt some parts on the violin but it doesn't sound all that great without an ensemble.

Another goal would be to uh, clean my room. It's like a freakin' pigsty in here. Speaking of which, I should probably get started now...
