september is evil (has been & always will be)

September is always the weirdest month. when i was in yr 12, had nightmares all the time...i'd like imagine a ghost was comin towards me or sum weirdo thingo was peeping at me fr my bedroom window!!! the most vivid memory i've got of a ghost was in sept as well. it's freaky i tell ya.

ok, so i'm afraid of the wicked stepmother in snow white (weren't we all tho?i'm getting so much shite fr everyone else abt it!!)...seriously she's the scariest thing ever. neways, so i was trying to get to the toilet but it's late at nite, and it's sept and it's a spring nite, all i can see is the freako queen wif her evil stick in black but i'm in this bubble rite, so she can't get to me cos i'm protected (this is as i'm walking to the toilet at the corridor), so neways, as i'm reaching the toilet she freakin pokes her finger at the bubble...no, the bubble doesn't burst, but her disgusting wrinkled pruny finger touches me!!! i so freaking freaked dat i ran all the way to my bedroom and hid under the doona.

yeah, so u can guess how wimpy i am...and now it's sept and it's still chat yuet (the 7th month in the chinese calender when the gates of hell opens to let the ghosts out!!!urgh!!!)...i'm still spooked.

elections are over so dat's good...but dun reckon i'm too happie wif the ppl dat i gotta work wif, jus cos we've been screwed over during elections...& i just received a call dat freakin curtin uni won't pay for security during pasar malam!!! they wanted security, they've got all these policies, they've got all the money n they advertised pasar malam in thier prospectus to lure international students and now they won't sponsor. mofos!!! urgh. so i shall end wif a bitter note. oh and i've still got my chinese cultural assignment due. if anyone's interested in reading up on the main obstacles dat affected the collaboration between kuomintang and chinese communist party between 1923 to 1928 n wanna write a 500 word essay on it...hehe, pls feel free to email a copy to me ;p

Diary of Isobelle (Mary Lide)

Yes yes yes!!! Assignments for this week are done...am still trying to think if there's anything due at 5pm today...hv gotten so used to havin to hand in sumthin at 5pm everyday it's kinda weird if nothing is due...

so this morn, woke up at 8 am after sleeping at 3 am (was reading diary of isobelle!! will talk abt it more later....gosh i luv dat book), so i started doin my chinese assignment entitled "Postcard from Beijing".

thank god for mum or i wouldn't've been able to complete it, so wif 2 brains we came up wif a semi ok script for my video recording. thing is, i din bother to write down all the chinese charatrs cos they were too time consuming, so i'd formulated multiple reasons (been formin them during the few hours of shut eye) for not handing in the report.

so neways, got to uni at 11am, video recodg was at 11.15...din noe where the place was...checked it, then me and chris flew down there (yeah,we were runnin' like idiots), then i forgot how to say forbidden city in chinese...so chris was like, no worries, we'll jus ask a couple of chinese studs on the way....

i'm like wha..

chris: Hi, my fren has a chinese video recording asisgnment now, but she doesn't knoe how to say forbidden city in chinese...

i was like ...omg, damn embarassing!!! wat if they're actually like thai or sumthin!! cos they looked a bit stunned and lost for words and the bloody CCC (curtin commerce club, notorious for their successful events!) boys had their music blaring so loudly (sausage sizzle ma)...for me it was like chaos.

but they were a big help and my recording went reallie well, my lec actuallie wants me to join sum chinese speaking comp...first prize.....

a degree in china!!!!

sounds prettie awesome hey? mite actuallie think about it. yep. so dats about it from me at the mo...not much to report back on except dat moi face is getting bloated...puffy eyes can be substituted for two freakin ping pong balls i tell ya.....okie now i gotta write my report!!!!

HAPPIE 19TH BERFDAY BUI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

spring = plum blossoms

The plum blossoms in front of my house have never looked better. Like pale pink snowflakes that decided to group together to form a tree...it's the sweetest thing i see every morning...apart from the new pink sobranies dat candice and steiner brought back of cos!!

so, sri lanka is completed, now it's on to Beijing...then Melbourne Hotel and then gotta choose a not-for-profit org. so far so good. Apart from puffy eyes, a bloated face, sum strange eating habits (consumed a 500 g pack of Maltesers and Peanut M&M's; compliments from chaboh!, on monday before handing in assignment....never felt worst!!), and clothes that dun fit...i think i'm doing relatively well!! =p

i guess the toll of being an ISC Convenor is starting to get to me.

i'm still thinking if it's worth joining the golden key club. Yes, kenny i knoe, there're no benefits but doesn't do a great deal of harm, but a nite i've been thinking, if i join for $ 93.50 (including gst), what wld i get? a membership from the golden key, a pretty nice recommendation letter to pretty up my cv and ...wat? i obviously will hv no hope of getting any scholarships....

so i dun join, i can....hehe, hopefully get sumthin from lesportsac, lancome, MAC or Luxxe.

even better (an image of from the worldvision ad jus popped up), sign up for one of those worldvision kids....rite, will call mum!!

I've just realized the reason for my puffy eyes...Fidel Castro.

At first I thot Oliver Stone's doc 'Comandante' was too bloody 'the naked chef;jamie oliver' but after awhile got pretty hooked on to it and as per normal started crying thruout the doc. Man, why does sbs always do this to me, the world according to bush was bad enuf and now this....

fidel kept goin on abt revolution and new world order and how as we progress it is harder to attain...and i'm kinda wonderin...how much time do have left neways? wat wif our natural resources running out, limited chicken and eggs in s'pore (latest info from steiner...after effects of the bird flu) and multilevel car parks at curtin uni being built...seriously, it got me thinking about the paralympics as well...u always think dat someone is gonna care so u dun hv 2...or i do anyways, so i'm thinking if everyone thinks as i do...then no one wld do jacksh*t.

neways, was pretty interesting yesterday. me, shooter, tat and jlo were havin a chat ...bout religion, war n the works. bout how if every single religion is a truth...isn't it all then artificial? wat shooter said reallie shocked me:

"ppl are f*cked up" (ok, dat one din shock me but...)

"i hate ppl, i hate f*ckin patriotism ( i was givin him crap about the rape of nanking...shooter is jap so...yeah.) i hate god, God, Damn You" he said wif passion and anger.

now dat reallie shocked me. i've never met anyone who disliked human relations so much!! i for one, thrive on it, it's superficiality, the shallowness and yet depth of it all... we accept it and live it but for shooter...

i now realize why he studied physics. it is another reality. yikes. ok. maybe it's the lack of sleep or too many sticks of m lights but am kinda floating at the moment wondering where i am...then i see the plum blossoms. i hear my aunt cooking. the realness of ppl and their flesh. what's artificial is this screen i'm looking at...this dell keyboard i'm tapping...

rite...back to beijing!! Hugs and kisses to all...sorrie for a depressing post....

ps. Qoo's Honey and Pear flavour is not too bad

pss. omg, i jus remembered, last week at 4pm, was starving, needed food, so went to simply delicious (a small kiosk kinda place at uni) but was closing...then i saw the chinese uncle carrying a box of sandwiches...there were like 10 packs in there and a couple of $5.50 rolls...he looked at me and

me: Uncle ah...got anymore? very hungry la

uncle: hmm...wat do u want to eat? ur normal chocolates and gummy sweets ok?

me: er...anything as long as food

uncle: ok, i tell u wat, u can hv this box for $2. (nanikore!!! unberibeble!!...avacado & chicken, cheese & ham, Chicken & salad...heaven!!!)

me: thank u uncle!!!!!!!!!1

hehe, went back to office, ren han (a tiny lil dude who's doing accounting) looked at me...'wah, u so hungry ah?' haha...we had a good laugh and started giving away the sandwiches!! must remember to tell uncle his snadwiches were reallie popular....

tuition free week at the mo....(yeah tuition free my ass)

it's tuesday...omg no it's actually wednesday!!! o-kay...there goes my week. Am still trying to recover from the jap drama am currently watching...it's called "love is not..." ok dunno how to read the rest of the characters...hehe, paiseh. Neways, it's about ryoko hirosue who's this blind chick and this dude who used to be a gigolo, ok so this gigolo (actuallie i'm not too sure if he's a gigolo but from wat i've been watching it seems like he is!! hehe) has a helper who has the same name as him. Um, since i can remember his name let's call him haku.

so haku was jailed for 6 months for cheating sum chick's money and when he came out his business was f^&*ed up and owed this loan shark bout 300 mil yen. haku's helper is frm a rich family (dunno why he became a helper...actually, i think he's mentally disabled or sumthing..) and he died in a car accident when haku was jailed. now the sister is looking for him and because haku has the same name they took haku for the brother.

so now wat's happened is dat ryoko reckons haku is her real brother and has finallie opened up after being cynical and negative for the past few yrs...wat she doesn't knoe is dat haku plans to kill her to get her inheritance but now dat he's so attached to her he jus can't do it and the loan sharks are getting impatient.

these jp dramas are so bloody motivating. i mean wif korean drama's they're always crying and there's always incest going on...(no offense to the korean dramas lovers; mie and tash babes) but i can never get thru a korean drama without crying and i hate it. wif the japs, they either make u laff or make u think...kinda like tryin to motivate u...or maybe it works dat way for moi...

so i've been officially *btw am at angazi cafe at the mo (it's at uni) and they're playing blu cantrell's "breathe", tat and i are bobbing our heads to the beat at the same time...loser la* elected as isc convenor...yeah, so hafta think about new policies to push for next yr...but shall not talk about isc in my blog!!!

went for body step yesterday (mun, cum wif me when u get back ah!! hehe, we can step like krazie!)...and i hafta say, i reckon i'm doing better now...at first i was reallie scared i was gonna fall, cos the freakin steps were freakin high and i was so unco man...my feet was jus everywhere, when my hands and feet were up, the others were down...and when they flew fr left to rite i was still trying to figure out how they flew!!!far-nie...was lika a chicken trying to fly.

but hv finally figured out how to cross step without tripping over myself and getting all tangled up. Yesterday was the first time i went for evening classes in a long time and i realized the more ppl the more motivated u are...funny how it works. Not so much contact wif the instructor and more concentration on ur posture! sweet! hehe....

went to say by to ah huey 2 nites ago...was reallie good seeing her, dear and rest of UWA kids as welll!!! huey gets prettier and prettier every time...eh how u do it ah? hehe, sum more dun exercise! kns! miss ya lots babes, will drop u a msg ...make sure keep in touch ah!!

hv been dyiing to go shopping since last week...want to spend money... but jus wanna buy lipgloss as is the only pretty thing dat can afford and can buy without too much hassle...am thinking of tony&tina's lip crystals!! (hehe, mun, dun reckon i can get ovr lipglosses la)...but then again, am dying for the cargo duo.

chaboh's berfday is coming up and she keeps asking about her pressie but i ain't gonna say a thinG!!! hehe.

went to jacky's new place the other nite for dinner, wah lao, jacky and tat cooking; they sounded like an old couple bickerinG! couldn't take it...thank god i can't cook or else the 3 of us would've been a circus.

okies gotta get back to sri lanka now (assignment for management...) hugs and kisses to every one!!
