Because I Can Be Bothered

2008-02-06T21:00:00.000+11:00

this is what boredome has reduced me to, blogging. For all our loyal readers out there, we apologize.

topic of today : Technology Hates Me.

Why? because it does

How?(do I know this)- well last night, while i was dota-ing at my friends house, his keyboard suddenly disconnected, and this only happened when? oh this was the first time it has ever disconnected. -proof #2 i swap computers with him, this is like by our 10th game already, and oh what happens on my first game on that computer, I DISCONNECT FROM THE FREAKING GAME. oh thats not all. -proof #3 we then took a break from dota and decided to watch a little foxtel. While my friend walks to the kitchen to get some water, the television decides to hate me too, it said, screen is unable to blablabla, it was just black and then I thought something was wrong with it, but the instant my friend walks back into the room BAM it comes back on.

Thank you my case is close, i have presented my evidence, and there, Technology Hates Me.

This has been one hell of an update,

Thank you and Good Night

okay, its been yonkers since this blog's had ANY visible updates, so here's to break that flow...

5 weeks to EXAMS. yes, twin... exams. remember them?

aaagh. i havent been so lost in uni...ever. this is by far my worst semester. got ZERO clue on whats what, and i'm running out of time. sigh...

though it seems like i'm not doing much.. yet, i'm exhausted. from i dunno what. prolly just thinking about how much work i havta catch up on.

i actually dread uni, this semester. the only semester, thus far.

i'm dreading it.

the ONLY consolation i have at this moment, is that my uni year ends on November 1 !! :D
something to be excited about... freedom, smells sweeeeeet.

youth sunday just passed.. a couple of personal-firsts..

having to back-up sing in Sunday service for the first time;
harmonizing for the first time; (thanks, Stan. really appreciate u putting up with my non-talent of harmonizing :p)

and of all times to fall, i'd have to fall when i'm most upfront in a formation, while on the steps of the stage, cuz the sanctuary stage was not deep enough... lol, i was told it was like time froze. that i had a slow-motion fall.
i saw it coming, but couldnt do much to stop it. anyway, i've gained 5 massive bruises from the one fall. massive, like the size of my fist, tho i kno my fists arent that big.
still, amazing how that works.

also, first time speaking in front of the whole church.. right about 200+ ppl at a time..
telling the church about the happenings of Fungus all year.
this was the most nerve-wrecking part of all the three things i had to do that day. was numb all over after my first presentation in 1st service. :s ..like never before.

i'm FINALLY catching up with uni work again... very slowly, but surely.

yesterday was our big performance in a comp outside rod laver arena. Unfortunately we didnt win, but we did get to know the winners and other dance groups which was awesome. Might be one day having a huge dance concert with all these other awesome dancers. It was cool how the MC's recognized us as last years winners lol. I got shoved forward to be questioned, cough*cough*ruth*ahemmmm. Lol we had a lot of fun, very proud of our new people, Joshua Tan and Audrey Tan, first time performing with us in front of so many people :) Our next performance is on September 15th at BOXHILL TOWNHALL!! lol its going to be huge, visit <> I think this is going to be our biggest number of people dancing together on stage. I think we've got about... close to 20 of us?? oh my.. lol

It's that time of the year again.. the time when every weekend will be packed out with dance practices. getting out of bed is always a good thing... maybe not... but it SHOULD always be a good thing. so what better thing to do than dance? ..thats my opinion, at least.

i've been stuffing myself with food. literally. 85% of my waking hours are spent eating.
be it chips, chocs, soups, rice, noodles, fast food, takeaways.. its crazy. but for some reason i'm another kilogramme lighter :s can someone please explain that..?

and after my haircut yesterday, i couldnt resist walking into the asian groceries on the way back from the salon. and got myself 2 packets of chips. had the whole packet of prawn crackers in one go...resulting in me later feeling like my head's about to explode cuz my throat was so sore, i had to take painkillers.

i'm trying to lay off the food, but struggling. and i blame the cold. yes, i choose to blame the cold.

*listening to out-dated mushy chinese songs again...

2007-07-17T15:23:00.000+10:00

...and you wonder why it's been freeezing all day..

its hailing... strongly.
pretty scary, but thank God it doesnt last for very long.

Uni just started yesterday, but for some strange reason, today's lecture and tutorial got cancelled just for today, and so i finally had an opportunity to catch up on sleep...

only woke up at 1pm today. well, not really.. woke up number of times all morning, waking up, falling asleep again, and didnt get out of bed til 1pm... its been too long since i've been able to bludge like this. .....wayyy too long.

Mom's yelling "snow!!! its snow!!" and audrey's going "mom, it's hail..."
"but its white! its snowww!" "no, mom, its hail......." lol. Mom is funneeeee :p

2007-06-28T12:40:00.000+10:00

and so the twin-ness just keeps adding on...

we both went to apply for a job at this cafe in Collins Place... in the cold, wet, extremely windy morning. yeah, morning. and the rest of the day wasnt much different either.

when we met, serene tells me she misplaced her wallet (or is it purse? nah, purse sounds too granny-ish.. ). and so i go "yeah thats ok, i'll shout u lunch :)"

and when we went to the bank, i find that my wallet wasnt even in my bag ..! and i had no idea where it was... like i left it at home somewhere without even realising... blurness.

yah, so we were both without any ID or cash... actually, she had a $10 note in her pocket, and i only had a $2 coin in mine...

i mean, how is it that we'd both misplace our wallets? at the SAME time...? ...seriously.

so yes, thank God i was meeting friends right about that time, which actually had some cash on them. i went shopping anyway even without any cash on me.... shopping "in debt". hehe, i still find that quite amusing.. :p

music

2007-06-25T20:32:00.000+10:00

I think ours is the only blog that has no music that will interrupt other peoples own music when they enter a blog site. :)

not counting malaysian friends. Just those under Australia friends, like seriously everyone has a song tht will just throw your own music off. Im listening to my own stuff thats cool thats cool and then I visit someones blog and suddenly Im hearing two songs clash. And then I have to off MY music and find the PAUSE button (for those who actually provide a pause button) and then after pausing it, then I can on back my own music. MA FUN AHHH lol.

just a little complaint from me, not like it changes anything.

new day

2007-06-21T19:30:00.001+10:00

kor kor just went back to malaysia. House seems very empty when you are the only one. I need to get off my P's so I can be on the insurance list for kors car and also coz I'd be able to drive it. Manual is a pain in the ass but looks cool that you can drive a stick instead of just cruising in an auto. Dota fast is going well I guess. Accidentally clicked on Warcraft III the other day, but luckily didn't click battlenet, if not it would've been all over. Been trying out this game called R.O.S.E. which stands for - if I'm not wrong - Rush On Seven Episodes. oo look, I'm using colours, how wild, lol.

Mom, I'm getting a job. But not sure. Will be earning my own money. Call me.

Ok Rose aka sevenhearts/7hearts, its rpg, sort of like a el cheapo version of WOW but an upgrade from ragnorak. Its just really cute characters running around bashing other cute creatures which respawn for you to bash them all over again. While leveling up, there are also quests to be done. And for those people who keep saying, what's the use with fasting dota if you're just going to be playing and getting addicted to another game. Can't compare Rose to Dota coz seriously, it's just wrong. And it's the holidays, what you want me to do, sit around stare at my comp. No going out is not an option, haven't you read the news lately, shootings?? Mom I'm fine. Innocent bystanders, and its FREEZING out there btw if you haven't notice. My toes are about to fall off. And doing this Dota fast is also to prove tht I CAN live without Dota, it will just be a very boring life. Oh and its not just fasting, also been praying too. See korkor is safe and sound back home coz I prayed for his journey mercies. AHA, see fast and pray.

Oh I'm back to my nonsense writing in my student diary destroying it bit by bit with more Disney information. My 2004 student diary was bombarded by my fascination with Disney Villains, so it has like every detail on any Villain in Disney. This time in my 2007 student diary, it is actually filled with the details of heroes from Disney. I do this coz I like my handwriting and it kills alot of time.

Went shopping with twin yesterday. Bought myself a pair of jeans and a belt and a top. Not bad, not bad. Myers is having a stocktake sale. Tho can't really find sizes. Janice!! I got myself my first pair of skinnys. hehe. Random thinking, I wonder if Rain(Bi) is ever gonna have a concert here in Australia Melbourne. Random saying, "I really want to drink Lipton Ice Lemon Tea"

Ok bye..

2007-06-20T21:11:00.000+10:00

ahhh... just finished another 1000-piece puzzle. since my glorious day of freedom, i've been shopping, playing online games, and practicing the guitar.. not improving very much, tho......

yes, i'm a puzzle-geek. i just love em. and it seems the puzzle i thought was gonna be hard, turns out to be doable.within 2 days.. actually, more like less than 10 hrs.

i finished half of it in 5 hrs.. and the rest was mostly Nicole, while i was out happily shopping.. then i finished the sky-bit in an hr...

so here's what it looks like...

-V-

2007-06-13T01:58:00.000+10:00

and I am sooo incredibly tired of studying...

seriously, this is torture. I'd really rather have my exams all crammed together like last semester: 4 exams in 4 days, than this time around... having a week's gap before my last paper.

its just plain torture. I mean, get it over and done with already!

I can smell freedom.

yes, the sweet smell of liberty at 5pm thursday 14th June.

the exhilaration I'd feel....... I can't wait. but, I still have a WHOLE day before that day...

if there is ever a test of patience, for me, this would be it.

and might I add how much I hate this table..? this one table I've been stuck to these couple of weeks... and this chair, oh this chair........ don't get me wrong, they're perfectly fine..
its just that I've been here for far too long.
I don't think I've ever said this out loud, but "I hate exams". full stop.

JUNE

2007-06-07T02:07:00.000+10:00

and it is june...

well our entire church is doing a fast and pray, and a few of us decided to fast dota. At the moment, im feeling really bored, but anyways its only day 1 lol. Semester 1 is over, my stress is over unlike SOME people :) anyways hoping something new and addictive will come along my way. Mom i will clean the apartment soon, since i have so much time now. I will clean it as soon as i get my sleeping habits back. I need to go shopping soon too. JANICE MOK come back pls lol.

2007-05-31T23:07:00.000+10:00

i officially need a break.

sigh... its one of those times when u know u've studied way too much for way too long,
and u still need to keep going... and u get depressed.

yes, i realised this tday cuz first thing when i woke up this morning, my head was flooded with "profits, losses, inventory, goodwill....."
and i'm like.. "AAaaahhh!! crap!...~ "

and THEN i said a prayer over dinner, not just for the food but also for family who werent at dinner, and the prayer sounded more like an accounting report than a normal prayer...!! :S
like, i somehow subconsciously incorporated "efficiently and effectively, conflict, for the interest of ___"" i mean, who actually prays like that???
sigh......yes, i'm very stuffed.

i want the holidays now. i want it so bad, you have no idea. no, really. there're so many things i wanna do NOW. this instant. i had to make a list...

sadness~

2007-05-26T14:23:00.000+10:00

i parallel parked last night! wooot! hehe.. first time in Box Hill..

ok no, wait. not really. I've parked there before, on a busy Sunday afternoon.

i guess last night was just a lil more exciting cuz i had a silver Porche behind me :p

don't wanna wreck that now, do we....? hehehe.

i think i'm finally getting the hang of this whole steering, estimating, and angles...

finally.

2007-05-26T02:31:00.000+10:00

i..... cant...... feel....... fingers........ numb...... ahhh........ cold........

*sereNE

2007-05-20T20:10:00.000+10:00

hmm, let's see... i've decided to use larger fonts cuz i hate having to squint to read...(o_O)

mom's down here again, after being away for only over a month. i say "only" cuz she's usually away for longer. but still, she's around at the right time since exams are coming up, and everyone's gonna need to concentrate on studies and not worry abt who's responsible for what house-chores... love ya, mommy! =)

havent been able to study as much as i intend to. mainly due to the weather. yes, blame it on the weather. Autumn was almost entirely skipped over. its hot and sunny one day and the next, it's raining and freezing. Melbourne weather's still full of surprises i see... it doesnt help either when i really wanted to nap for abit and then study, but can't get out of bed cuz its so incredibly cold. and dark. Although i must say, i've been making progress... hopefully enough and in time for the exams.

this weekend's been good, i must say. in the sense that i have finally... yes, finally started my quiet-time in the mornings again. confession: i've been procrastinating for months now. been on and off of it. but i have a feeling, and i hope, that i'll be keeping to this. full-stop.

this weekend at church...
atmosphere has been pretty heavy. Word given by God largely surrounded the fact that this week has been "stressed and difficult" for everyone. and it's true, i know. since a couple of friends, not just one, have shared with me their struggles and worries. and this time around, these friends are all different to the ones that used to have D&M's with me. these are friends who DONT usually have D&M's with me. which is a lil weird for me, seeing that it all happened together in one week... but nonetheless, i'm glad they did. it puts me in a new perspective - them opening up to me, which shows there is an extent of trust and security they can rely on... makes me a lil nervous, actually. but my prayer log is getting longer and longer for each person, and for every new person added to it :)

i just pray and have faith that this coming week will be looking up for everyone. After all, life is only life with its ups and downs. gotta take both good and bad with grace and joy. makes it easier to handle the bad that happens.

ok, it's about time i get back to my books..

Public Relations

2007-05-18T15:12:00.000+10:00

Semester 1 is ending. soon it will be semester 2. and then it will be un employment. great. Wanted to go see cirque du soleil, theyre really freaky but cool in a way. It is Varekai ooo, no idea what tht means, lol but look how scary it is. fun fun fun. ehs no money to go see it anyways, too ex, will save up for their next show next time.

This week in Professional Practice, we learnt about.... PUBLIC RELATIONS. yeap, advertising course and my lecturer decides to bring in a PR person, great, i feel like im learning all i need to learn about Advertising, yes Advertising, like the course i signed up for? Advertising. yeh, she comes in and is supposedly told to lecture us about the difference between PR and Advertising, in the end she just ended up talking about the wonders of PR. yep very useful facts there. Famous person in her business tho, for those who want to get into the PR world, Ann Morrison, of the fashion world, i think she owns like a boutique or something but shes a PR person and said to us in plain words, "I am well known in my line of work" wow. I got to meet Ann Morrison, this would be so great if i was doing PUBLIC RELATIONS. I wouldnt be blogging about this experience if the class wasnt set at 9:30 in the morning and it only lasted for an hour or less and then i had 3 hours of nothingness to do. Thanks RMIT for this wonderful course, which teaches me how to write a business plan and learn about PR.

Not very happy about tht subject, the lecturer is partly to blame for it. Doesnt have her own notes, you can find most of her notes on business.vic.gov.au, and she just reads off the piece of paper. Nope no extra information there, just reads the notes that she gave us all. wonderful, and then in our business plan, we had to do accounting. Yes accounting, this is why i signed up to do advertising, so that i can experience accounting. yes i say it one more time, accounting. yay go me.

*sereNE

exams soon!

2007-05-14T13:54:00.000+10:00

its finally sinking in...

we all know how fast a semester ends when u're in Uni, but seriously.
one minute u're trying to make out what subjects u're taking, and the next u're preparing for exams.
i've got right about 3 weeks left before the exams. and i've finally started to push myself to start going thru my materials thoroughly.
Company Law, Organisational Behaviour, and Corporate Accounting. 3 of the biggest pain of this semester. but i guess at least there isnt an exam for Org. Behaviour...
Prices and Markets... psshhh..! imma ace that. :p

well, at least after all this is over, i'd get my life back. get off my bum. and actually do something productive that doesnt involve writing. such as........... planning for the themed-dinner for camp! woot woot!! ...not-so-long ago we just had a camp. and i did the themed-dinner too. but really its been a year since. man, does time fly..

anyways, i'm off.
...a lil early to leave for work, but gotta tag along with Sonja to places b4 she drops me off.

bang bang

2007-05-09T23:45:00.000+10:00

ok, start off with good things. lol. rally was a blast!! so cool, i think it was the best theme thus far, kung fu man, its what we asians do best, even tho the sensei we hired was a white boy, lol, its all good. The deco was so cool, felt like we were in little China borderlining Japan, snaps all round for my twin lol, she did the deco, lol it was awesome, see i knew i said the right name in the meeting when they asked who should do deco, yarrr dont burn a hole thru my head. hot hot hot. Oh so was the dance, i think its our wildest so far, and our fiercest, (if thts even a word, or i just cant spell, i think i just cant spell) the white masks were so cool, but scary if we werent wearing it, i wouldve scared the crap out of myself, lol its all part of the act ,weeee my sons idea (peter) to buy the masks, which explains the freaky-ness of it all lol :) job well done to all my beatbouncrs.
Alvin- HEROES, dance for HEROES, you know you want to lol, we all miss your worming
Audrey- my proportionate dancer, lol well done, make sure you can keep doing tht split, its painful, but entertaining.
Gabriel- i still think ur too tall, just cut some bones and ud be fine lol
Jenny- Welcome to beatbouncrs lol
Jon- Windmill, Windmill, Windmill!!
Peter- WHAT!?!?! we're out of steroids?? what am i going to feed you now??
Ruth- lol YAY you can do a handstand AND spin on ur belly, thingy, turtle, thingy, lol dunno whatssit called but so proud of you!! lol
Shaun- attention, the next person to overtake Rain(Bi) lol, ABC version of fahrenheit?? lol
Vernis- ehs she can do everything lol, all the boys want her and all the girls wanna be her lol

I thought my beatbouncrs deserves some credit after all the whooping i put them thru lol, theyve come a long way.

Now for my complaints. FAR OUT WHAT IS UP WITH MY LECTURER, its an advertising course not a financial accounting lets all do a business plan course!! i mean far out, woman, get a life, read the course guides and please teach us proper things. This morning i spent 5 straight hours trying to figure out was cash flow and capitals and break even means, all these bombarded words which i have never heard of in my lifetime. and now she decides to introduce it into my life?? i dont think so?!?! anyways, got it figured out or half figured out, sort of ehs?....

*sereNE(tired)

first post

2007-05-04T10:07:00.000+10:00

ok, well, apart from the awesome chance Beatbouncrs had dancing in front of mirrors last night, i have a lil entertaining story to share.... lol.

3:00pm lecture ends, everyone's crowding around the stairs to leave, my friend, Anita turns around, "Hey do u kno, they say that if ur hand's bigger than ur face, u've got cancer???" (note: I have definitely heard this one before, but i totally forgot at the time.....)
and i went, "nooo...?" and she goes, "go, try it!"
.... and me, being all stupid, put my hand over my face. and Richie, another friend who was standing next to me, puts his hand over mine, TRYING to stop me from doing it,
but what happened was, i put my hand over my face, Richie had his over mine, and Anita hit Richie's hand, and thus, me hitting my face.... (-_-")

all this happened in 2 seconds. and me, shocked, became all defensive and reactive, as some of u would know~.. used the massive roll of posters i happened to have in my hand, and hit Richie on the head with it!!! LOL. and everyone was cracking up sooooo bad. lol... how embarassing..

yeh, they laughed their way downstairs, and on the way, other friends were trying to explain to me what exactly happened and that it was Anita instead. and i'm like, "woOOOOoops!!??"
lol... sooooo embarassing. ...Richie was laughing too, but when we got out onto Swanston St, he goes, "well, thats the last time i'm helping u!....hmph!" lol. I'M SORREEEEE RICHIE!
and i cant believe i fell for that twice!!!!... gaaahh.!!

this is 1/5 of my very eventful yesterday, but i'll spare u from the rest ;)

-V-
