❤ Friends 27 September, 2008

Don’t you love it how….
~ one thing can lead to nothing
~ so much can change in less than three months
~some friends only talk to you only if they want something..
otherwise they don’t talk to you at all
~some friends, no matter how less you see them, and how less you t a l k,
they’re the ones you realize are the ones that matter most ღ
~ that you pretty much have new people in your life every year
and you are close to and share almost everything with
and you’ve only known them for less than a year.
~ Next year you will probably have a whole d i f f e r e n t set of close friends..

But I hope that the close friends I have this year are the friends that I have next year.
And the year after that. And the year after that.. For a long time, really.
Coz they are the best. I ❤ my close friends
They are the ones that know almost everything that is going on
and who might hate me for going on about it so much
But so much love for putting up with it~ <3

You know who you are.

How Ironic 20 September, 2008

Isn’t it ironic that when you’re looking for something, you don’t find it?

And when you’re not looking for it, it’s like right THERE!

Also when you want to forget about something, EVERYTHING reminds you of that one thing?

How about when you are thinking of that one word that is on the tip of your tongue but you just can’t. seem. get!

Life is weird. Life is ironic. It sometimes suck. And then again it could be the best damn thing..

All I can say that it is very ironic.

The People In Your Life…. 7 August, 2008

There are some people you talk to every single day of the week..

There are people that you talk to only occasionally…

There are people that you know but never talk to…

There are people that you would say hi to and have small chat with..

And then there are people that you know and used to talk to but you just don’t have that anymore and would give pretty much anything to have that back but you know it just won’t happen.. so you move on and realize it’s gone… maybe forever.

There are many different people in your lives that you interact with on different levels. I wish things last forever but sometimes they just don’t and well, you could spend forever thinking about it but then you would have wasted that forever over nothing.. 

I don’t know what’s like made me want to write this but… I guess it could be due to the fact that suddenly I am like reconnected with so quite a few old classmates from like ages ago. Some that you hardly spoke a word to and they decide to add you and some that you spent some considerable time talking to and yeah.. and also what has happened over the past two years of my life. Could says that I actually starting living and having a life late-2005, early-2006. =) Before then, I was just barely existing..

But yeah. Two years of great memories, experiences, first times and a whole lot more that words just can’t begin to describe or explain the greatness of everything.

2006. The start of everything.

It’s August! 1 August, 2008

Omg. It’s august! *sigh*

This year has gone like real fast and sooo much has happened already.. like met new people and made new friends and have become more closer to old friends while kind of also not talking to or hanging out with some friends as much as I want but I guess that happens.. least that we still are occasionally talking and hanging out.

Along with change of friendships during this year, I have also begun again fresh with uni and have like predominately moved out of home… well that actually like happened last year in which I moved to Hamiltn but yeah… I still occasionally go back.. no doubt. But yeah… Changes. Good and Sort of I guess.. not bad but not so desirable have occured over the past couple of months.

Guess it’s bound to happen. But omg! >.< The year has like really just gone by just like that! *snaps fingers* Maybe it’s true that once you get older, everything is just like soo much faster and you’re wondering where all the time went OR it could be that I am having *SO* much fun that it’s just gone by me! That could be it, coz this year sort of have been not as like thrilling, full on or exciting and like random-packed as the previous two years has been… like with the random 2 am trip to a waterfall and constant up and down trips from Hamilton to Auckland and vice versa.. 

This year has been kind of less random… but… it was random in it’s own different ways, that’s for sure.. so it was good I guess in it’s own different ways.. Hmm.. thinking it’s a bit too early for the reflecting and reminiscing lol.. and I realized a couple of days ago that this year the focus and like drama and attention has been on a certain aspect of my life… like soo much (okay, maybe overemphasis but still nonetheless quite a lot than previous years) has happened in that part of my life! Heh…

But anyways. Ummm…. well…. I think I pretty much just wanted to state that. That August is here and so it’s nearly going to be springgg (yay!! I’m sick of this winter weather… so depressing! ) and so pretty much, it’s going to be the end of the year…. and I’m hoping with the end of the year, my family and I will be going overseas! That would so awesome and would be the cherry on top~ ^.^

Atm. I think life is going pretty good… uni is going alright… I have a job!! (YUS! Finally!! ABOUT TIME!) and I have quite awesome and social friends!

To Add Variety…. 17 July, 2008

To add some spice to this… I mean my blog, I have decided to occasionally movie review.. yeah, like right in my blog.. probably won’t be long but yeah.. just remember, it’s my opinions only and if you don’t like it, you don’t have to read. I’ll give like reasonable warning, so you know. 

The first movie… Bad Boy Bubby. 

I was told before watching it what happens in the beginning of the movie and personally movies don’t get spoiled for me, I reckon that you don’t really like get the real experience until you see it for yourself and up to this point, this has applied to me and yeah, movies haven’t been ruined for me… I don’t think. From memory. 
So, anyways. The movie. It was disturbing. Not as disturbing as Saw though. But it was really… different and wtf. I don’t think I have much more to say about this movie… soo maybe I’m not really into movie-reviewing. Oh well.

Something I do have something to say is.. wtf! Has like txt become the new pick-up place?! It’s…. really wtf… or maybe it’s coz I haven’t been hit on? Coz my flatmate was like, “imagine if you were hit on at a bar….” 

I think I have? By like my friend’s friend and yeah… but then I like immediately said that I had a boyf. Works wonders, that line! But yeah… I didn’t like the guy… or. Hmm… actually I didn’t like the guy and the fact that he like thought I was cute… okay, I know that it’s not like a crime or anything but…. hmmm…. I dunno. Maybe I should like see it as a compliment but.. /shrug. I dunno. Maybe I’m just odd. But hey, whatever. I don’t care. I don’t like that guy aand that could also like be seen as that I am a bitch or not nice….? Hmmm… I dunno. Random thoughts. Train of interconnecting thoughts..

But yeah, back to the main point of txting becoming the new pick-up thing. In summary, this number that I didn’t know (didn’t want to like assume it was a guy, which most probably it was since the number used the line – “How you doin maggie”) txted me like a string of stuff which began with like the number txting “Hi [insert the name that the number used/thought that it was/they thought the number belonged to]” and I just reply that they got the wrong number and then a whole shit load of txts ensue and I like didn’t even txt back after the the seven consecutive txts in which I did not reply to ANY. Like, wtf. You would probably think that the person you are txting don’t want to talk to you if they don’t txt back!! Like, the previous random txter I got, got the message quite fast after I didn’t like reply to him. But… this txter… hmmm…  /Shrug. I dunno. 

Sometimes people really do annoy me and make think WTF! Some people are quite stupid too.. And I dunno if I mentioned this before but, I tend to get these random guys txting me from like all over the show.. with one like getting my number from like an art desk at school… huh? What? Really weird…. *sigh*

I dunno about you but I don’t tend to txt people or like even make friends through random txting…. do you? Anybody ever experienced something similar?

It really gets to me sometimes. =\

DVD Purchase! ^_^ 15 July, 2008

$10 DVD!! ^_^

JB Hifi is so awesome! I love it. The dvd’s there are like soo cheap!! Like $15 for The Notebook and some other movies.. that I don’t remember! Awesomeness!

Well.. was going to update tomorrow along with my LJ but… I bought something so may as well update while I’m at it..

Saturday night was spent at a friend’s just lightly drinking, catching up and me bitching. Heh.. It was good. We watched The Eye and Hairspray!

I loved The Eye. The Eye starring Jessica Alba was totally awesome! I’m not really a fan of like horror/thrillers/whatever they are but I really liked it! I was interested in seeing the English remake coz my friend has the Cantonese one which probably is the one that is like remaked from. Honestly, I’m like just mostly curious to watch thrillers and horrors and the like. Like the Saw umm… quartlies? I dunno.. :\ lol.. there’s like tonnes of them! Okay, maybe not tonnes but quite a few.. 

This week has gone by like really fast! It’s like already nearly Wednesday!! T_T Going back to city tomorrow night. Have like plans the next few days:

Thursday: Chinese class thing

Friday: Waitak reunion thing.

Saturday: Beth’s sisters going-away party

Sunday: Thinking of seeing my friend in South Auckland.. haven’t seen her in aages, catchup required!

During these holidays have just been hanging out with friends and catching up with them… some that I haven’t like seen and hung out with in like aaages!!! And just like got my Telecom (NZ phone provider) charged and turned it on to see if I received any messages, and I got one from my high school friend who got married~! Awww…

Real Life has definitely started and I think my mum once said that once like after high school, you’ll really like see who you true and real friends are coz like after high school you go from seeing them like everyday to like once in every couple of months.. I haven’t seen or talked to the friend that got married since like… well.. she got married! Which was like in April! And it’s like July, now! That’s…. three months! Okay… that’s not long but… wow… still… changes, heh.. but good changes! Still keeping in touch ^_^ 

Goodness~

Yeah… I was busy Satuday night anyways… coz th friend that txted wanted to hang out Saturday night.. aw. *sigh*

Sorry~ 17 June, 2008

Sorry for the lack of blog posts! I have been busy procrastinating and not doing any essay writing or study! It has nearly been two days without an update! Ah! ><

Ooh actually I lie, I actually did study Sunday night before my Written Chinese exam… but. I think I like did pretty poorly on that! T_T *cries*

I don’t think I will be able to do a business conjoint with my BA in Chinese… =\ Oh well. I don’t think I would have been able to handle it anyway. It would have probably been more stress and stuff due and to be done T_T

So yeah. I don’t think I would be able to do the conjoint because I don’t think I will be able to pull a B average in this semester’s papers… I need to work so much harder next semster. Actually do the work in like learning the characters as we learn them! *sigh*

Uni is so hard….

And it’s not made any great with today’s discovery of my $970 overdraft. It’s semi-alleviated with the deposit of one of my flatmate’s money from my other Westpac account that she like transferred her share of the money for the expenses to. But it was probably going to be pretty bad anyway coz of the phone calls that I made last month, but didn’t think it would be this bad. T_T *sigh* To attempt to further alleviate the pain of the overdraft, I will be returning home as soon as possible because at home I will not need to pay for food.. also to add to the pain of the overdraft, I also have a $112 fine! Parking fine. For not moving my car at like 7 am… -__- =\ I just have all the luck in the world~!

So, yes, my painfully bad financial life! >_<

So. What’s left of this semster is just the two essays taht I must complete pretty much by the end of this week. I think I have another week for that 800 word image/text essay buut…. the Chinese Culture one, I’m not sure. I am encouraged by the class’s student mentor to complete it if I don’t want to repeat that (not-so-interesting-but-interesting-at-times) paper. I need motivation. Help. Someone give me some. Please. T_T

So, anyways hopefully everybody else has been having a more greater and less painful life than mine atm.

I can’t wait for all this to be over! Seriously. I need a sunrise. I’m tired of sunsets! =_=

An Update~ 5 June, 2008

Just a quick little update on my life to signal that I am still alive.

So. The other original two flatmates at my flat are moving out this week and pretty much going to be replaced by someone that I have only met once and that is also a workmate of my other flatmate, S. I think I need like letters for the names. Okay. So. The two flatmates that are moving out to their So’s flats are R and G. And the fourth flatmate that is not moving is S. S works with this new flatmate, A. And A is also a friend of a friend of another friend that I have only just met this year but have developed quite a close friendship with and we shall call him Ry. So, yeah that may have been quite confusing. It’s a small world where everybody knows everybody..

So yeah. That’s what’s happening at the flat/apartment.

Uni. It sucks atm. Probably coz I hae like so much to do and should have probably done it like a while ago.. I have 2 essays due probably by the end of next week and then 3 exams over the next two weeks in which I have not started studying for. Although  should be fine if I have like actually just learned the characters each week that I have learned them… I am also going to probably fail miserably on the oral. I have three exams – oral (Tuesday), written for Chinese 1 (Friday) and written exam for Written Chinese (the following Monday). Oh, and next week Chinese Culture essay (1500) due Thursday. And also an 800 word essay due… sometime. It’s an image/text essay analyzing a webpage (or two..) using this reading that I still have not yet finished reading… -___-

Kill me noww… T_T!!

Aaand, my friendships. They are pretty good. Pretty okay social life.. keeping on top of invites and social gatherings (not many *cough*) but do have a 21st coming up in two weeks! Can’t wait! Hmmm gotta also get a small present too. :I

Soo yeah… and today I have spent the whole day procrastinating and just pretty much sitting in this exact spot on the net… that is probably not good for me. And of course, there was also texting and phone calls… from the same person.. lol. But all good. Variety~ haha.

Well. It’s quite late (not that I will be going to sleep anytime soon, wel not within the next half hour or anything anyway and so yeah I shall leave it at that.

I have yet to have another rant… something that’s been on my mind is friends and yeah.. so yeah, I think maybe I shall have a little rant about that. But yeah. Hm. Shall do that.

Mandy Moore-ness, Annoyance and Early Sleeping…. 16 May, 2008

Soo. I went to sleep for like about 2-3 hours at 7.45 pm tonight. And, obviously, I can’t sleep… probably should’ve went out when my friend invited me to. Oh well. There was a band tooo… hmmm. /shrug.

I am currently on a 90’s music downloading spree! Over the past few days I have downloaded the likes of S Club 7 (more than one song too!), Mandy Moore, a Lilix son, some Hoobastank and Maria Mena (she is pretty awesome – love the song, I Miss Your Love <33) and of course some boyband goodness.. Busted! I am contemplating Westlife… 90’s. So cheesy! But I love it! Hahaha… and I know you do too! The 90’s babies! ^^

Theeen. Today really pissed me off and probably tired me out with all the annoyance taking probably a lot of energy out of me… hard work being pissed off! Lol. Probably why it doesn’t occur that often and its not something (I, personally) that’s felt often (well not for me, personally anyway). It takes a lot for me to get worked up and pissed off and pretty much anything will set/piss me off. I slept it off. At 7 pm.. LOL. XD Yeah, coz I’m cool like that lol.

Well… atm I kind of can’t sleep and hence updating this..

Anybody ever had/have a filter blog? God, those suck ASS for me! >_< I feel so…. restrictive and that I just can’t like write. I dunno if its just the unfamiliarity and uncertainity of what I can/can’t do… but yeah… it’s hard. It’s really kicking my ass! And it’s like for one of my papers.. yep, one of my assignments/projects is maintaining a filter blog haha. I just don’t get how links come into and what you’re exactly supposed to say… like without repeating the info in the links? Coz I think that’s the point of it? Hmmm… *sigh*

Oh and something that I am quite proud of…. last night I studied! HAHA! XD I was pretty happy and satified with myself. I think I definitely know those characters. Wasn’t that hard either~! ^^ Sooo, yeah just the habit of keeping it up.

So, what annoyed me today pretty much is the fact that I do pretty much everything in maintaining my flat (definitely making sure that bills are paid – coz well, I don’t want to kind of pretty much get up at an ungodly hour to get to uni… biggest no-no for me… haha coz I’m that lazy! T_T). Buuut um yeah I’m pretty much the only one that’s not like working and that has pretty much the least class (and the least life.. but that could be my fault, I turned down my friend who asked me to go clubbing with her on Thursday night, but that wouldn’t have been smart as I had a 9 am class the next day.. but didn’t go to sleep till 2 am anyway… ) and soo yeah = a lot of time spent at apartment which = lots of free time.

I quite like it. My free time. ^.^ it’s great. Though it really means that I should study more coz i have the time buut… I don’t? Instead I waste my time on the net aaand the good thing? I’m still passing! But not as great as I would like to. I’m like JUST passing. Like for the mid-semester exams, although I did only fail one section of the paper, it would have been better if I hadn’t, y’know. :\

Well. Anyways, I’m going to go waste some more time and eventually fall asleep when I get bored. Hehe

Hope everyone had a good day
