mundane life

another day of the hols passed by with nothing exciting happening. well didn't get any work done today. too lazy to lift up or open any of my books. i did have enough vigour and energy to go for a swim though! haha. did laps hoping to swim off my fats. i'm too lazy to type anything interesting today too!

till my next update....life is a complicated timetable.

a bbq, a bit of alcohol and a camera

celebrated wily's birthday yesterday! had a bbq at this really nice apartment. loved the lobby. it was designed to bring nature into the building...it had like all the modern angulated designs soften by white pebbles and greens. really stylish! would love to stay there..for the lobby! haha.. wily really was bullied to the max because he was the birthday boy anyway. he got thrown into the pool and then made to drink like lots until he couldn't stand. pitied him but what's the point if u don't make ur 18th a memorable one?! really enjoyed the company too. laughed tonnes cause as usual..zoe, tina and i got high on chocolate..the chocolate supply coming from our superb 'death by chocolate' chocolate cake! i must say it was our first attempt at baking but it turned out really really good. everyone loved it! it was crusty on the outside and soft and moist in the middle. everyone kept asking how we managed to make it so biscuit like on the outside...here's the secret...over bake the cake!! haha.. it was never ever meant to turn out that way but what the heck! people loved it! they were actually eating almost burnt cake. sshhhh....haha.

ever since i've started uni..i think the highlight of it has to be the introduction to alcohol! i mean have drank alcohol..wine..before this but recently i have found myself in situtions whre alcohol consumption deems to be necessary for a fun time. haha ok that sounds really bad! i mean drinking is not bad if u know ur limit and u have self-control. oh and drink with ppl u can trust. my favourite cocktail to date..malibu coke thanks to christina! i think i'm beginning to sound like an alcoholic. actually, i don't mind drinking socially to build up my alcohol tolerance. mine's pretty low...

i'm in a trigger happy mood! i just want to take pictures of everything adn everyone...reminds me of someone..IMRAN! haha. i remember the days when our faces were practically glued to the camera lens...self portraits, embarrassing poses, stupid poses... those were the days when we were really, extremely bored. miss them! oh i took a really nice artistic shot of tina..hehe..i must say that my photography skills have improved since the day of 'the upside down but looks like it's not upside down' photography frenzy..only ahma and imran will know about this..so don't worry if u have no idea what i just said. i took some really nice shots with my SLR too. keeping an album of all my 'artistic' pictures. love them! my pride and joy!

enough self praise..haha...till the next update...be trigger happy people!

dilemma

hols are finally here!!! but now comes the question of priority....should i study or go out??? in a dilemma...haha. oh anohter dilemma i'm in..should i buy more stuff from bridge road?? decisions, decisions... life's all about them i guess. can't avoid them, can't shrug them off. just have to deal with them. i've nothing really to blog about today..oh..watched ong bak. it's a pretty good production. love the stunts and cinematography. the filming style used was good. but the story line was kind of a simple and predictable one. however the other elements of the film kinda out-weighed it. i's a good movie to watch if u like action and lots of hand to hand combats. there's so many movies that i want to catch!!! haih..but the price of movie tickets here just gets to me. can't they make it cheaper!!! i miss the good old days when a ticket costs RM1.20. can never get such a good promotional price for tickets nowadays..haha.. the effects of bloody inflation! oh ya another i thing about inflation..the inflation of tram tickets here! it's ridiculous!! ok eventhough a two hour ticket costs just 10 cents more..but hey it's still 10 cents!! why can't they just maintain the price?? 3 dollars was a good one!! and it's so unfair that we international students don't get any conssession for public transport! aren't we still 'students' with or without the word 'international' in front of it?? we still do what the local students do! it's so unfair! we have to pay our butts off for evey single thing we use here! even the fees must be a light-year's leap more than the locals. this country has become a gold mine because of this. but no matter how i complain i still have to come here for my degree...stupid malaysia got such a bad higher education system!

ok enough complaning and lamenting. tomorow will be a good day..going shopping...but no i cannot spend anymore money! oh into this japanese anime which anthony lent us. a bizarre story...a student falling in love with an alien teacher...weird...but what the heck! it's jap anime! will still watch it. haha... i've been going on a binge for sweets! sweets as n pastries and desserts! this is so bad! the cravings for them just suddenly comes when i'm in melbourne!! back home the desire to have them just dies. but when i'm back here....oh no!!!! sinful!! have to restrain myself...hold back..

i have said enough for the day...till the next update...make your own judgements!

an update

ok...this has to be the most unproductive week ever. i hae an essay due on wednesday and i still haven't completed my research into the topic. i'm just so not into the research and study mode! went shopping at bridge road on sat and bought 3 items for only $25!!! very good bargain. oh i have to thank sam for helping me pick out all 3 of them. she knows my taste in clothing.haha...visiting bridge road is not encouraged...everytime i do go there i wish i were a trillionaire's daughter!! there's just too many nice stuff i want to get..but the price just gets to ya!

i don't really know what else to blog about...i'm just updating for the sake of updating... hmm... oh one theory in life which i truly believe in...any guy who comes my way and have the 'potential' of making me fall head over heels for them are either too young, attached, or gay! this is the sad reality of my life! haih....so pathetic. i feel so depressed over my sorry fate...

till the next update...distance is no barrier.

have u ever

have u ever felt that everything just seemed to be perfect..but then truth hits u in the face and u realise how foolish u've been..how foolishly hopeful. it's a phase in life everyone experiences i guess but damn reality sucks! not all of it, mind you, just the bits in life which would or could have made it a whole lot better. it's these fragments of reality which really make a difference in how u view ur life, how u handle ur life, how u cope with life. without them..the world just seems to be a mundane one...a routine...predictable, certain, safe. i need something or someone to give me the adrenalin rush i so long for! to give me the necessary push in persevering...to push my will power to its limit. i need it to spark the flittering flame in me, to make me radiate with life, to make me live! after all said...do i have the guts to face this source of life? am i adventurous enough to move out of my comfort zone? do i have the courage? bravery and a bit of rebellion is needed. can i afford to rebel?

ok...that was just random thoughts just flowing through my head at this hour of the night... just needed to type them out...as a proof of my 'profound' mind. haha...so hopeless at it. until my next update...i'm swept up.

uni life, finally

uni life started...finally. is it an occasion to rise to or to fall into a pit of despair and stress?? however the outcme i guess it's all up to me but..darn! it is defiantely intimidating to be among the whites! maybe it's just me but i feel as if thier eyes are always observing my every move..my every mistake and every stupid fumble. they just seem so patronising! maybe it's just my imgination....i hope it is. if not this will turn out to be the worst 4 years of my studying life! fortunately there's still the ex-trinity people to mix with and christina!

i had my first taste of clubbing recently. not bad actually. didn't mind the smoke and alcohol. had a drink myself! haha... the music and rhythm just had me going. don't mind going again..but i don't think i'll be visiting a club in the near future. i need a break from fun to get my mind orientated to assignments and work!

another great news...i've managed to pass the initial stage of auditoning for this uni play! will be going for the second stage of selections this monday. can't wait..hopefully i'll be successful and a part in the play will be mine! i know it sounds so desperate..but if u know me well enough u would know how important and interested i am in the theatre. i will do anything to be involved in a stage production....well almost everything. i won't beg, steal or cheat for it. haha...the experience gained from being involved in one will be so enriching. i just can't wait. the idea of it just gets my nerves all jumping and my mind racing! now all i can do is just do my best and pray!

ok..enough writing. have to get down to my work! tutes will be starting this coming week so the work load will be piling up. i have to get down to it...soon... so till the next update...first impressions do leave lastings one.
