woah commitment

woah, i'm posting a blog yet again??? yerrrr i'm at work, kinda boring, i'm quite stuffed coz there's heaps of work i need to do, i'm prolly not gonna be getting much sleep these few days. I realised that i have a jap oral on Wednesday, but somehow i put it in my diary as next week ahhhhhh so yer i'm quite stresed.... like u know that state of stress when you go "err hehe hehe... " and u get agitated and stuff sighhhhh
hmmmm
today's plan will probably be, go home and eat, then come back out to uni to study or i might goto a friend's house to study. In any case i'd better START studying NOW =p

WHATTA FREQ

lolz, i was about to write a blog after a week and then ez msgs me on icq asking about bloggin ahhaha sooo what have i been upto this week? Mmmmmmm, well, firstly i've actually started to concentrate on my studies a little hahaha only a little though, maybe coz i have assessments in about awww a few days? hahahah i've started doing some Circuit Analysis work and you learn about all this crap you'll prolly never ever have to come across coz you'll never had the opportunity to work with

In any case what have i been upto? Mmmmm, i actually want to look for a job for the summer, an everyday job so that i can occupy myself..... really anything would do hahaha i'm not sure if i'll be going overseas but i might coz yer, all my sisters might be gathering in hk or shanghai and since it's a big family thing, i'll be forced to go hahaha not that it's a burden tho =)

Exams are coming up!~!~!~!~ 10th, 17th, 23rd, 25th. This year i have it lucky, every other year it's all jam packed. But i guess God knows that i'm heavily burdened with so much other commitments heheh =p

So.... ever wondered if you have a strong or weak immune system?? Take the brain test here http://www.ipn.at/ipn.asp?BGG and find out =p Apparantly if your left brain active or something u're immune system is stronger tahn right brained. I'm left brained =p heheh but dodtdot's right brained, that's prolly why she's sick all da time awwwwwww it's alright heheh maybe it's coz you don't eat chocolate hahah =p

John Mayer has somehow appeared into my music library and i'm kinda caught onto his music. It's not the fact that his music is like, very catchy but it's something that you can listen to and enjoy without getting sick of it. His lyrics are interesting even though i can't depict half the lyrics when listening to them, i guess thats half the appeal, because his lyrics aren't in the general trend like "love" "hate" "balbalbal" but he talks about very different topics which relate to feelings and human interaction (not boy/girl relationships)? mmmmmmmmmm, i gotta go downstairs for dinner mmmm =p

it was a sorta sunny day today =p currently wearing board shorts and tshirt at home, and i got my window open full but i think the cool change is coming in =p ahhh food food, water water, and then study study =p need to understand this stuff by tuesday for my mid sem :( yer 2nd half of semester and i STILL have mid sems sigh =p It's alright tho, as long as i stay positive i think it motivates me to study =p so does John Mayer........ coz when i listen to soppy ballads i tend to stop what i'm doing and enjoy the mood, and when i'm listening to classical it makes me wanna either try and play and depict the notes or makes me wanna conduct hahaha =p and if it's in chinese? i'd try and figure out what in da world they're talking about hahaha
=p

but for now ADIOS =p

just another normal day

Mannnnnnnn, after reading ez's blog, mine feels so short and boring, hahah but then again who'd wanna know about politics anywayz, it's year 9 Australian Studies alllll over again. I remember that we used to sit there with our laptops and we'd be playing quake all class, with Adrian Zacharias and it was just so funny coz he'd always be the one getting into trouble....... oh and don't forget good ol' anferrrniii thompson....... (use a very heavy english accent mind you) hehehe sigh, poor kid......... just coz he's a bit weird and a bit nerdy and talks all class and thinks he's a know it all, everyone seems to tease him....... ahhhh well, lucky my days of being teased were over after grade 6....... mmmmmm, thinking about it, year 7 and 8 i was kinda still being picked on a little, but yer after a bit of convincing teasing from myself i think the attention diverted from me, and start of year 9 was when the good ol days began.........

you know how people always refer to the past as the good ol days, when you think about all the technological advances we have, faster computers, better cars, more luxurious, bigger tv's, bigger monitors, more kinds of food, takes less time to prepare meals, internet access, broadband, cameras, phones etc

you'd think that we are always living in the era where things are better, but somehow we always fall back and think 'if only we were living back then'. Well, most likely the reason why you'd ever feel this way is because of the position you're in. For a high school student, you dream about primary school, for uni, u dream about high school, for people working you dream about studying, for marriage.... well, who knowz =) hahaha

But i think the biggest contribution to that argument would be inflation, and i guess the cost of living. As you grow older, you have to pay for more things, food, transport, car, credit card, shopping, internet, food, food and more food. Well, i'm mostly spending money on food, so what i'm gonna be doing is prolly try and bring packed lunches hopefully from now on. Will i make my own lunch? I guess i'll have to hahaha, or maybe i can get mum to cook bigger servings at night and i'll just bring left overs..... that sounds promising....

But yes, i think with a job, there comes alot of responsibilities and also the fact that your expenditure somehow booms up. Especially at uni. I was talking to a collegue today about shares and stuff, it's quite interesting..... very confusing too, i mean i think it's very time consuming because you have to read heaps in order to figure out which company is suitable to go for. Of course you could just go for the advice that the comsec gives out etc, but i think in order to be at least averagingly successful, you'll have to do your own research etc. My collegue Pat had like 4000 dollars in shares (which prolly isn't much) but yer, i can see that if i was investing i'd be checking all my companies and reading stuff everyday, which prolly isn't a good idea.,..... i spend enough time doing other stuff, i don't want to fool too much with my money........ in any case, i'm off.... gotta catch a ride home with alistair now =p and yer, go home and sleep sleep eat eat =p

oh, if you guys ahven't checked out jon's blog, you should do so, there's birthday photos =)

ok 2 days in 1 post =p

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, so what happened Saturday...... ahhhhhhhh i woke up a little late and yer went to vote? ahhhh turns out that my name's not enlisted and the woman was kindly telling me that "it's ok" as though i was really disappointed heheh and she directed me to go fill out a form and hand it to some other ladies so that i could vote next time round. I eagerly just left the place because most of the time i'm not bothered by politics, well, at least not right now. But i think i should really put my name down maybe next time. Coz who knows, in 4 years i might be actually affected by politics, so maybe i'll need that decisive vote hmmm :)

ahhhhhh i left things till late, i'm gonna blog later tomorrow at work nite

shopping la

I bought some jeans~ woohooo, some light coloured ones......... actually i've never really pictured myself with light coloured jeans so when i got to the store i was lookin around and i saw this colour which i thought would suit me, and yer when i tried the light coloured ones, i kinda felt a bit funny when i first wore them, but then looking and looking at them, they seem to kinda grow on you, in the way that u just get used to the look of them and u dont think it's weird anymore heheh. Hmmmmmm, we went to look for a present for this other guy Andrew Tae, a party that Ez's also going to tomorrow night but yer ended up not deciding on much but yer Ez has everything all sorted out there ehheh

Didn't get much sleep last night, was up late heheh but yer, gotta goto Jon's party today/tonight so it should be goot goot =p Doing a speech but yer it's not very organised, nor will it be any good, but all the best =p

studying....not

Hey everyone, last night i went to dinner at da Hilton buffet hehehe there wasn't that much to eat but yer i didn't wanna eat HEAPS anywayz, otherwise i'd make people besides me feel left out? hahah and then had some gelati at docklands =p
So had quite a good night out hehe then i was trying to fix a weird computer problem. For some reason the hostnames and all that don't resolve, yet ip's work balabalb

i asked some online forum (whrilpool) and people there were telling me to install netbeui and all this crap, and yer maybe i'll take their advice and give it a go next time when i get the chance =)

Busy week this week, i'll be going to my pastor Pat's ordination? Yerr, on Saturday and then i've got a birthday to goto after that starts at 8 then goes till late mmmmm, but the birthday will most likely have alcohol and i wanna drink some lolz but then .... no one to drive and stuff ........ ahhhh so bad =p

Hmmmmmm, oh well, not too much longer before i get my full license......... maybe in less than half a year? lemme jsut check my license......mmmm, july next year...... sigh oh well, guess it's llb for the next half a year till i find someone who's willing to sacrifice and be a driver :) btw llb = lemon lime bitters =p

So what else is new........ ummmmm, currently i'm at uni, finishing off some prelab reading and questions bleh, pretty boring....... it's quite stuffy in our office mmmmmmmmmm, man there's all these macs here which no one wants to really bother fixing except like one or two people only coz they have to hahahah for me, i don't wanna touch them lolz

bleh i'm gonna go get water =p playing baddy tonight, should be good =p

feelin nostalgic

perhaps nostalgic isn't the word because nostalgic implies that you're longing for things, or persons of the past but somehow it's not the past that i'm really worried or concerned about heheh =p In any case, i've been quite busy but it's kinda good. I hope my studying picks up soon. I'm planning on studying hardcore like, ummmm, this week hehehe =) So what have i been upto, i've been munching on these white choc, macadamia nuts, cookies that dotdot made for me (and mum and Em but ithink they'll be all gone soon) hehehe

at work at the moment, and i'm about to be late for jap =p But then again it's only jap, i don't think i'll be listening in class on what he says. At the moment we're doing ceremonial dates and stuff in jap, but the topic that i'm gonna do my oral or essay etc on is prolly like i mentioned last time, the Education system so i'm gonna focus more on that.

Btw if you guys missed jumpstart last weekened, SHAME ON YOU heheh =) Jumpstart had a great turnout, it's an annual concert that alot of churches put together. Sooooo, if you missed it this year, don't fret, it'll be happening next yr too heheh

Any case, i'm off to class, yet again =p ciao ppl

update laaaaaa

Blogging is good for you? According to our dear korean esl friend Sam hwangusss blogging makes us reflect on our day, unless we actually write it in the morning hmmm hehehe which i kinda am atm, ahhh well, blogging is good coz u get to show what u're feeling and stuff hahahah

Let's see what i did today, i'm at uni atm, and i didn't stay for my 2nd hour of japanese coz the teacher even thought the last topic's a joke coz no one does it. It's on special dates of the year, where festivals happen in Japan etc, prettyyy boring. The topic i'm gonna choose to do is most likely (the same as 90% of the class), about the education system. It's a hardcore but interesting topic to write on provided you know what you're doing.

I allowed anon posts on my blogs coz i know ppl are too lazy to register so yer, for ppl like mah sis hahah comment away =p i reckon u guys shou8ld do it too, aids and soh and sam, i know ez has =p

i need food, got class! ciao
=p

monotonic monday

today's a bore =p i gotta work from 2-5 but then yer, i'm at uni atm, being a slacker i am, i'm waiting for my next tute and yer rather than prepare for it i think i'll just blog =) Had a late night last night but yer don't i always? heheh i mean, half the asian population only begin to talk or get online (icq or msn etc) from midnight so that's when all the fun starts happening.

Mmmm, haven't talked to Adrian via skype recently, partially because i need a headphone and using the little clip mic is a little annoying coz it's not long enough.

I'm a little tired at the moment, no i mean very tired lolz, maybe not because of lack of sleep, but maybe just a bit drained hahahah had jumpstart and had to do worship leading and yer i was very disorganised for that which makes me feel bad coz yer not only do you look like a fool but you also make your team look bad even when it's not their fault, so i do apologise to them all if they're reading this.

I've realised that the way that you transmit messages, or the medium which you use greatly affects the way someone perceives or responds to news. For example, they use all that advertising jargon about seeing ads on trains, hearing it on the radio, reading it in the newspaper etc so how do we know which way's more affective? If you know me well, you'll know that i'm a person that on most occassions, gets tongue tied or sometimes doesn't have anything to say at the time when words are most needed. I'd rather let the moment go by, have a good think about it, and then either write a card, or a letter etc to express the way i feel and the way i think this person should handle their problems etc

Poor adrian........ he has to read so many silly blogs from not only me but all of us other igs dudes hehehe and it never seems to be a happy one lolz....... well, ez is cheerin up, and i think i'm just under the weather, or maybe i just needa sleep before midnight and see the effects of an early night's sleep.

today's weather: cloudy and gloomy =o
MondayPossible showers H 18°CL 11°C

Oh, if people wanna sympathise for me, yer i lost my phone, my samsung one, sigh i'm so stupid, left it on my car in the garage and drove off and i dunno when it fell off ........ pretty silly huh, sigh....... but yer, what other bad stuff have been happening, i got a parking fine near cemetery rd? i was there at 4, but my watch was prolly a few mins off and the officer had already issued a ticket and he's like "sorry i can't do anything now that it's been printed already" bahh but it's alright........... the thing is i'm alright with all this, it just means that i'll have to slowly just yer, not go out too much, do some more work at home lbablalabl which is all goot i think =-) besides i'm sure there won't be that much going out since exams are coming up soon anywayz

I read Ez's post on computer tech support and i think it's quite interesting hehehe, besides the close people around me, i'm pretty sure i'd feel a little meh if they were to call me every single day asking about their comp probs hehehe......... and contrary to the person who posted about cancelling dates jsut to help ppl's comp probs, i dont think i'd do that heeheh, not to bag chi or anything kekek but he did have silly computer problems and he didn't listen, so chi next time, when someone tells ya not to install gay progs like viruses, please don't =) Coz there's no sympathy for negligence =p I mean, my sister hasn't had computer problems ever, that needed anymore than 5 mins fixing....... i mean it used to, until i gave her a small "5 steps to not blow up ur computer" lecture hehehe now she even knows that she has USB ports on the side of her case so she doens't have to crawl and plug in the digi cam hehe

ok i better go print off some stuff for my subjects and get all organised =)

okokokok

Ookokkokok hehehe i know i haven't posted in a while and most likely everyone knows why hehehe and yer i thought i'd share on here too hehe =)

Recently i've been quite ummmm, i guess very happy because i think God's been really gracious to me. Although I know that I don't even deserve His love and care he offers it to me without asking for anything back. He's someone i claim i rely on, but i know i'm always failing in that department. But yer, i'm so happy that God' s been able to bring Dotdot in my life not just as a close friend, whom i can share my ups and downs with, but also as a partner who can support me in my walk with God, someone who i can find encouragement in as i walk a path that seems uncertain. I know that nothing's perfect and i know that life's long journey/walk is gonna be harsh but i know that God's gonna be faithful and He has everything under control so all i gotta do is look to Him and nowhere else =)

Well, now that i have that cleared up hehehe you guys will now prolly know that the food was cooked by no other but Dot =)

heheh so yer lets see, had a badminton comp today hahaha i played with my high school buddy Liang and we played for MElb uni's International Commerce hehehe and even though i'm not part of Commerce and he's not part of Melbourne, we still kinda kicked butt ehhee =p Game scores were 11-2, 11-1, 21-4, and finally 21-6 in the grand final. I had the support of my sister and dotdot which was really kewl, coz she has an assignment but she still came all the way out to the city to watch and cheer >.<

Yerr mmmmmmm, heheh so waht did i do tonight oooOooo i tried out an 8000 dollar massage chair...... omg it's so nice =p lolz i wouldn't mind one of them =p They're being held at the Westfield in Doncaster, go try them =p Mum and i were sitting on them for like 15-20 mins coz yer one of my friends Kerry works there heheh and she was nice enough to give us a whole demonstration and introduction spule =p

Interesting thought for the night: "Irrationality"....... if you try and define it'd be something along the lines of someone being irrational in a sense that they go against their logical thinking right? So is logical necessarily right? Or is something rational correct either? Why would you say........ buy a lottery ticket even when you know pretty much those 1 in 4 million chances pretty much means the same thing as rounding off the 0.00000000000000001 to 0 ? Why would God send his one and only Son to earth to die for us even when we don't deserve it? ah hah... now that's the million dollar question. So it's LOVE =p Love is probably the strongest force that might push you towards irrationalisation if that's even a word. Either that or PMS might also be hard to argue lolz. But generally, if something is very valuable to a person, something that they treasure alot, then that would lead them to being irrational about it.

Ahhhh so why am i on at 3am writing about this stuff? =p Who knows, but rather than it being an irrational thing, it's more illogical than it is irrational =p In any case, i need to exercise more, Em was complaining about my stomach/pot ......... mmmmmmm, guess i'll have to go running..... havne't done that for a while, anyone wanna join me?
