1 WEEK AGO: posting on this blog, actually. lol. was feeling pretty down.
1 YEAR AGO: oh jeez. according to my blog, i'd been back from australia for a week or so, was doing the final year project with sarah, was waiting to start my last semester at ngee ann, and was more excited over christmas than i am this year. also, from a few posts, i was quite insanely bitchy and feeling very alone. *dryly* the more things change, the more they stay the same. and, this was my mayfly project 2002 entry.
the mayfly project.
2002 in 20 words or less:
"lived in library. got good grades. love. fun times. paris, edinburgh, london. independence. science. father died. crying. acting. school. bacteria."
i love the bacteria bit. heh. good old Helicobacter pylori. I almost miss it. Almost. And if i get stomach cancer in 10 years, i'm sueing Ngee Ann. *grin*
went jogging with jen today, along the canal.. lol.. quite amazing that it actually happened actually, i haven't exercised in 3 months, basically since i started working the 2 jobs at the same time. let's see whether it happens again tmr. *laugh* don't hold your breath.
i've been in a good mood these past few days, but this evening everything seems to be conspiring to bring me down again. *sigh* some things, i don't need to know, i don't need to read, and i don't need to hear. and i'm waiting on tenterhooks for the blasted UNSW letter to come in, and it's driving me ever so slightly round the bend. argh. fuck it.
on the brighter side of things though.. (well, objectively speaking),
but i understand that you did what you had to do,
and i thank you.. ~here with me [michelle branch]
thanks for seeing what i didn't want to see, and doing what had to be done. (i still hate admitting that though. *sparkle*) friends, yea? as planned from the start. :)
met someone for dinner tonight. for those who remember that far back, when there were a lot of 'him's being mentioned, with no names attached, he was the main one. *grin* and goodness was i into him. poor sarah had lots to endure the months we were doing our final year project. haha. they never liked each other very much as i recall. :p he's still much the same, still good looking, though he's lost the eyebrow piercing, more's the pity, still dragging me out of airconditioning in order to smoke, (surely the most annoying factor in dating a smoker), still failing his way through poly, still can't hold an umbrella so it shelters the both of us, still too tall, still too many women. though he's complaining now that they're too easy and there's no challenge any more. *rofl* though he was whinging tonight about how i'm not supposed to laugh in his face when he tries to kiss me, or when he was trying out any number of clichéd lines and moves. lol. hilarious. seriously hilarious.
i think i'm over my bad boy phase though, and you've no idea how relieved i am.
watched lotr yesterday. *big happy grin* finished work at 11pm, and terrence picked me up and we watched the 12.10am show at PS. I half-froze to death. teeth were chattering! and he was complaining i was making him feel inadequate, cos he couldn't help. haha. he's decided to keep a jacket in his car from now on. *lol* his machismo is so easily insulted. heh. he was actually supposed to watch it today with his friends, but he was like, "How many people can claim to have watched 2 movies with you? Let alone in the same year?" *dies laughing* and the thing is, besides family and cath, he's prolly the only one. lol. i mean, as a general gauge, i've only watched 3 movies this year. :p
shan't post at length abt the movie, since everyone's gonna watch it anyway. but aragorn. legolas. *whimpers appreciatively* *goes and hunts for the legolas poster she's misplaced* it's so going up today. lol. not that that was the best thing about the movie, mind you, i'm not quite that ditzy yet. lol.
am trying to get up the energy to put pics up.. somewhere. and wondering if i should wait til i'm hosted. or until i get a net connection for my mac so i don't have to transfer it to this and from here online. my poor thumbdrive is a bit overworked as it is.
might be going for the mac sale later. or not. s'a bit late as it is. but hey, my mum's coming with me, who knows what might happen. *grin* though err, considering the recent purchases, i shouldn't hold my breath. :P
sudden urge to ponder out loud. (well, i mean.. out loud, like, figuratively speaking. :p) back in october, i decided, that's it, no more even considering a relationship, because there's no point, because i'm leaving so soon. this was also sparked off by a prolonged lack of any even reasonably attractive male crossing my path. well. attractive to me at any rate, which, as some people will tell you, is quite err.. different from the norm. heh. so why is it, -why-, that the moment i decide this, suddenly there's this preponderance of people that are.. erm.. potentials? it's very annoying. and when it rains, it bloody pours. i mean, normally i'd be the last to complain, i wasn't called 'hua chi' in year 1 for nothing, (though, *cough*, it took me ages to get someone to explain it to me in terms i understood), but seriously, this is getting kinda ludicrous. and it's not those terribly gorgeous guys who are wonderful to flirt with cos they have oodles of confidence, but make useless boyfriends, these are like, genuine potentials. lol. because i mean, flirting's fine, it's almost a hobby of mine, and i could really get used to a lot of hot guys crossing my path. :p but for the rest, why now? jesus christ. *grumbles* (though i'd like to announce to those people who will accuse me of leading people on, you know who you are, that i have restrained myself remarkably well in all but one or two cases. so there. nyeeeeeeh. =P)
ok. anyway, went to have dinner with stacey today cos it's her birthday, with some of her friends, (one of which, yes, did spark off the above rant), had the holiday inn buffet, which was quite useless for me again because i eat so little, and then watched them play pool at meridien, while i painted my nails this lovely dark slutty maroon that stacey had on her, bless her heart, (which i did a very good job of considering the lack of light, even at the couches at the corner, dubbed the "snogging sofas" by us, because really, what else were they secluded there for?), then went for drinks. quite a good night out, all in all. :) although, we went shopping before, and the butterfly necklace i wanted from that store in far east is GONE!! *heartrending wail* i got another (vastly cheaper) one, but it's not the same. the other one was gorgeous! *sobs*
and i need to go sleep, because i'm meeting syahzan for breakfast tomorrow at the ungodly hour of.. well.. 10.30am. haha. he finally decided to arrange it the day before because all he's gotten from me when he's called the past few days have been unladylike grunts. *innocence* my sleeping times are very screwed up right now. :p

17. Are you trendy? i like to think so, but honesty compels me to say probably not.
18. How do you release anger? make snarky comments at people at mrt stations refusing to get out of my way, tvmobile, and random people that annoy me. loudly and obviously. blast songs that suit my mood. invent new vulgarities under my breath and curse the person involved til i feel better. :)

21. What was your favourite toy as a child? : hammers, nails and my dad's wood pile. *grin*

What do you look for in a guy/girl? how much time do you have? *flutter* someone intelligent. that reads. good grades, and has ambition. and for god's sake, he should have a decent english vocabulary. someone that goes, "Huh?" every time i use a three syllable word can piss off. *smirk* and you know, all the cliches, caring, kind, decent, blah blah blah, you all know this already, i don't need to go on. can have a wild side, but not too much so, should be confident, but not cocky, and not feel the need to impress me, (though of course, a little of that here and there, particularly at the beginning, never goes wrong. :p) right, shall stop here.

41. Who do you miss most right now? my dad. and jim and.. nvm. lol.
today was actually pretty good, work-wise, one of the few days when my tips are more than what i earn, $56, actually. *big grin*
didn't want to come home after i got off at 11 though, i've decided that being at home alone might be something i'd like to avoid for the next few days, at least at night. so ended up going for supper with Aza, and getting back to the pub in time to take transport home. it's almost funny really, there're 4 floor staff at the moment that're going through err.. bad patches, and all of us were working tonight. lol. aza's the one with the problem most akin to my own, but his is much, much worse, so it's sort of like, helping myself by attempting to listen and help someone else. what makes it worse is that it happened to him yesterday, and today's his birthday. wonderful timing huh? the christmas period as well, no less.
bleh. *promises herself she won't blog anymore abt this topic today* seriously, i'm getting so pathetic i'm annoying the shite out of myself. aaaaaanyway, someone beat my high score on the game machine at work! i am going to keep playing until i get it back. *grumbles* okay, now this is just degenerating into complete worthless crap. :p shall go and put it all down in my journal, then try and sleep. *hugs everyone who's smsed and commented* you guys are wonderful. *snuggle*
