any relationship is under the power of the person who cares the least.

calm before the storm

right, so the title has got absolutely nothing to do with this post, but oh well. its still relevant to life.

thank god mid sems are over, but oh my lord am i negatively anticipating the results! yikes!
this weekend i hope to not go out. i have been out every single weekend ever since i came back from msia&spore/ uni started.
which is probably mainly to blame for my ever so shocking results. i've forgotten what it feels like to get good marks again.

i thought i might as well post up a pic from yangs get together thing that was....how many weeks ago? i don't even remember.
i seem to be losing track of time and dates these days. so unlike me.
actually, lately everything about me has been very unlike me.
no i will not drone into ulta emo issues, nooo thank you! for ur sake and mine. hehe.

yeh i know its a bit dark haha. not my fault the person who took this turned off flash.

ohhh and on the topic of photos, i still have the drunk pix and videos of ceazer hahahahahaha! but being the kind soul that i am, i won't post them up on here =)

mmmk i shall go to sleep now. sooooo tired.

adios!

mambo night

well.
after deciding not to attend this mambo thing the night before because of the inconvenience and lack of transport- i ended up going to it anyway! at around 10.30pm lin/ yang said there was space in the car or yang could drive so there would b space for more than one person. and then eugene said tht he could take as well. so i had like 10 minutes to decide to go or not. i am so bad at making decisions under pressure its not even funny. i tried convincing shirley to go but she couldn't be bothered. i had already changed into pjs and taken out contacts so i was in relaxed mode, but i finally came to the conclusion that i wasn't going to get any study done that night anyway so i might as well go! and thank goodness i did....

cos it was AWESOME!

the music was really good, well i personally loved it. it had alllll sorts of songs. like RnB, dance, techno (trance-ish stuff), the oldies music and apparently YMCA played but i MISSED it!!!!

another thing that made it really good was probably cos of all the drinks i had. don't think i have ever had as many drinks clubbing as i did last night and it was soo gooooood! haha. had like 4 jager bombs (which i absolutely totally adore!) and 5 other drinks tht i dont really rmb. i think they were along the lines of a quick fuck and a cock sucking cowboy or something. thanks to everyone for the drinks! (lin, jac, eugene, yang and.... others i dont rmb lol) my shout next time!

metros was really packed as well, which was good! it wasn't so full to the point where u couldn't dance. oh yeh, i rmb there was a group of indian girls dancing near us and they kept pushing us cos this one particular girl was dancing with such force it looked like she was having an epileptic seizure. then lin pushed them back and the epileptic seizure girl turned around and kinda pushed lin, looking like she wanted to fight or something. yeh. tht was rather weird.

the only minor downfall was that it felt really short. eventhough we went home at like 5am the whole thing just went by really fast.

yehhh it was a great night and i'm glad that i went.
we all better go next year! =D

btw- have cheeseburgers before u go clubbing hahaha it doesnt make u feel sick wen u drink alcohol!

bah...no matter, there is always next next semester!

---------------------------------------

anyways, after coming back from malaysia i've realised that i have been hell 'asianised' in terms of music and those stupid lame taiwanese series that are rather addicitive. like when my ipod is on shuffle, and an english song comes up i keep skipping until it hits a chinese song...then i leave it. lol. i would post the songs i'm currently obsessed over but i don't know how to do that...must ask huoy min. hehe.

its always like this though...before going to malaysia i'm into all english songs and stuff then coming to perth i only listen to chinese songs and then that kinda fades throughout the year into the preference of english songs, then i go to malaysia again and the cycle continues....

one particular band that i swore i would NEVER like was fahrenheit (fei lun hai)!

i still remember dissing them with my cousins going on about how gay and lame looking they were and how they couldn't sing for shit!

and then...

i find myself listening to their songs! constantly.

especially the duet they sing with hebe "zhi dui ni you gan jue" and their "chao xi huan ni". they don't sing particularly well at all but the songs are REALLY catchy!

but i HATE HATE HAAAAAAATE the last 2 guys sitting at the end of the 1st photo. they totally GROSS me out!!! i swear to god they were supposed to be girls! ew ew ew ew ew!

the first two guys in the grp pic above are in this series with ella from SHE and the 2nd dude from the left of tht pic is soooo cute!!! he's just so funny! love him! its about ella being obsessed over meeting the 1st dude in the pic so she disguises herself as a boy and attends the same boys school as him. then the 2nd dude (the one tht is cute) finds himself being attracted to ella and he starts thinking tht he himself is gay hahaha...yeh....

ANOTHER series that i really really enjoyed (eventhough it was predicatable as hell) was "wei xiao pasta" starring nicholas teo (zhang dong liang) and cindy wang (wang xing ling) and yes omg i've fallen in love with the lead male actor (as u usually do).

i can't find a decent picture of him on the net. darn. he's one of those guys that u have to watch rather than see in photos to think they're hot. go to crunchyroll and watch it!!!!!! they have really good songs from this show too, cos both lead actors r singers. if u can b stuffed download 'bei ji xing de yan lei' from nic and 'cai hong de wei xiao' by cindy. good songs =)

well now that everyone thinks i'm a total loser, i better stop here before i go on about jay chou's new album and his movie tht everyone laughed at during his "crying" scene LOL.

oh btw PRISON BREAK IS SOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!! luv it luv it luv it!!!

christmas in singapore was alrite, stayed at home and watched movies most of the time cos it was freaking RAINING on all four days that i was there for! but as boring as that sounds, watching movies in an apartment with all my cousins is pretty fun. we also went swimming in the rain downstairs.
umm...wat else happened in spore...oh yeh, me and my cousins went out to go to the club MOS. we reached there, saw the signs and everything but then couldnt find the entry! haha. so then we went into some bar called "kandibar" which was absolutely shit. i mean it looked nice with all the lights and stuff but it was pretty empty. i'll post some pix of it wen i get bak.
there i had a cocktail called the "graveyard" which was horrendously DISGUSTING! do not for the life of anyone drink that drink!!! its like a mix of the most disgusting spirits ever. i also had the majority of the "singapore sling" which was my cousins, while my other cousin had a "screaming multiple orgasm" which tasted like a milkshake.
we got bored there and decided to go to the 24hr cinemas, so we took a taxi there. i was feeling pretty tips and dizzy in the taxi and was laughing alot. we got to the cinemas at arnd 12.30am-ish and then watched "deathnote 2" cos we just watched deathnote 1 at home earlier in the day.
as soon as i sat in there i watched like 10 mins and then went to sleep. i was really dizzy and the alcohol flavour was still in my throat and it was making me sick. after wat felt like half an hr (but according to my cousins it was like 2 hrs) my cousins woke me up and i puked all over the cinema floor. LOL. yeh it wasnt pretty. i couldnt stop vomitting and my cousins freaked out and carried me out of the movies. luckily i didnt puke on my clothes or on them.

woah, these past few days have absolutely flown by! been working pretty much every day and on my DAY off i wake up too late and the rest of the day is spent house cleaning. urgh.
i can't handle full-time work.
like seriously.
i have no idea how i am going to survive when i finish studying and go in to a full time job.
8 hours a day.
5 days a week.
52 weeks a year.

i actually MISS uni!

anywaaaaay. theres only 2 more weeks til i go to malaysia/ singapore! yay! can't freaking wait man. no more work for 2 months. woohoo. i mean, don't get me wrong- i love it there. but being there so much just wears u out totally. like today, i was so tired and shitty that instead of smiling and greeting customers, i just glared at them.
omg see, i tried talking about my holiday but i still ended up ranting about work! its consuming my life i tell u!!!!

anywaaay (for the 2nd time). my boss (omg, work again!) is going on holiday for 2 weeks. how is this relevant to anything happening in my life i hear u ask?

well...

he asked me and my workmate angela to house sit his house while he's gone. initially i just laughed thinking 'wtf, y in the world would anyone want to live in their bosses hse?!'
but then angela was like 'omg vanessa, lets totally do this! it'll be like having sleepovers every single night!'
i was abit hesitant but then agreed.
and thank god i did.
ian (our boss) showed us his house in freo and far out brussel sprouts it is so nice! its like an apartment down the road from metropolis (woohoo!) and he has foxtel which can be watched on his huge plasma tv.
and he also has a cleaner! so we don't have to clean! =D
the only down side is that he has cats tht we have to feed and stuff.
i don't like cats.
but at least i don't have to clean up their shit. angela is doing that. wahaha.

he said tht on saturday nights, its wen the social life starts happening and drunk hooligans press the buzzer and yell into the speaker (u know those things where u press the thingo and the people up in the hse can talk to u?) ian said to just chuck water down at them, he does it all the time. lol.
oh yeh another bad thing, is that we have to travel so far to work. which we have like everyday
-_-

so i move in this saturday after work and i'm staying til friday. but angela is staying the whole 2 weeks. i can't cos i gotta do stuff before i leave perth.

i wish i had my camera with me so i can take pix of the hse and my one week living in freo lol. but nooo my sister freaking took it to china. grrr.
ian gave us money for food. but i don't think it'll last.

independancy rox!

OMFG results out in like....6 days!!!! shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm so fuggin scared. summer school/ deferred/ supplementary exams here i come >=/

SINGAPORE RETURN FLIGHT TIX UP 4 GRABS!!!!!

....right, so its not techinically "up for grabs", but i had to attract ur attention somehow right?! anyways, as u all know ( i think) part of the cocktail prize included a ticket to spore. but i can't use it cos its during a specific period of time and i'm not going in tht certain time. so i'm wanting to sell it for $500. it is of course negotiable. these are the details:

• you can only depart during 29 JANUARY 2007- 14 FEBRUARY 2007 or 26 FEBRUARY 2007- 31 MARCH 2007.
• the length of stay is one year
• you must be a full time student (and show them ID)
• ticket not including airport tax (which is usually $200)
• its QANTAS airlines- nice big spacious seats and big tv =P

so if you would like it or know of anyone tht wud, then please e-mail/ msn/ sms/ call me =D my e-mail is vanessa_lee28@hotmail.com.

please let me know before the 15th of december.

thanks!

exams = OVER!!!!!

yaaaaaay today was the last exam for the yr!! sooo glaaaad that the exams r over but the feeling of relief was soon shadowed by my increasing fear tht i might have failed some of the units! freaking management and accounting hey.....crazy to the core!

management i had no idea wat the fark the questions were asking, i was almost as clueless as i was in the info sys exam. and if it wasn't for yueh lai/ceazer/eddy helping us with accounting during the 6hr break i wud not hav a clue of wat variance and cost estimation were lol. i literally learnt all the topics in tht break period.

we have completed our first yr of uni dudes!!! how awesome is tht?!?! it feels like it has gone by so fast...but then u think about all the things u have done this yr and then it does feel like the yr has gone by at normal speed.

but urgh!! enough of exams and uni!!!

now i can relaaaaaax and watch all the shows tht i want without feeling guilty!! muahahhaha! i want to watch "the wedding crashers" again HAHA i swear hey tht has got to be one of the most funniest movies ever! i love owen wilson and vince vaughn.
ohh speaking of funny movies, i wanna watch tht kazakstan movie toooo!! and saw 3!!

one more thing before i go and watch gilmore girls then wedding crashes- 2 nights ago wen i shud have been studying for my law exam i was reading tht kenny sia dudes blog and he had this competition to win tht LG choc phone. all the people had to do was send in a story about a desperate addict- what was the craziest thing you have done to win the heart of the person u like? or if you knew anyone who did something very desperate. and omfg i was totally hooked on reading the stories..haha...stayed up til like 2am (yeh i know its sad...no need to rub it in!) reading them and i didnt even finish! soo may ppl sent their stories in and some of them were soooo funnnnnnny!

u gotta read em!!!
soooo goo to http://kennysia.com/ to read the top 3 tht he has picked so far or if u wanna read ALL of them (which u shud) then go to http://www.kennysia.com/archives/2006/10/lg_white_chocol.php

enjoy!

damn exams >=/

right, so its exactly ONE WEEK (holy shit!) before the exams, and by golly i really need to study!
the closest thing i have been to studying is visiting the accounting book website and doing the mcqs. let me tell u, attemtping the mcqs without remembering any content of accounting managerial 101 is not a good idea. it is rather demoralising. so. make sure u at least read the lecture notes or something before doing them haha. the website it http://wps.prenhall.com/bp_horngren_cost_12 . our tutor gave us tht website like...i dunoe 5 weeks ago and i only just recently visited it. the site is a lot like the info sys one.

on another note regarding accounting. i e-mailed jeanette to ask:

Hi Jeanette,

i was just wondering about the multiple choice questions in the exams-will they only examine topics 1-4 and no other topics?

Thanks,
Vanessa Lee

and the next day at 7.55am (who checks their e-mail at tht time?!?!?!) she replied:

Yes

WTF!.... "Yes'.....that was it! not even a "Hi, happy to hear tht u r studying for ur exams and u'll b glad to know that it is indeed only on topics 1-4".......noooo......she didn't say a "hello" or "Bye" OR "good luck" like all the other tutors/ lecturers do!
geez......
i rmb when hm, yl and ks would say how she was a bitch and all but i never really understood, but i do kinda get wat they mean now.
i think this beats hm's richard potger e-mail. lol. at least he had the courtesy to say "Kind regards, Richard" at the end.

anyway better go and get some study done now.

bye all !!!

just think....in 9 more days we will be FREEEEEEEEEE =D

i love uni!!!

HAHA what a shock that title was hey? 'i love uni' ! LOL but seriously, today i really really did! it was damn awesome! i had three tutes in a row but technically two because i didnt go to my accounting one =X
anyway i had my marketing tute first which was alrite and then i had management straight after. we got our grp assignment back and OMFG! we totally fluked it!! 70% !!! HAHAHAHAHA can u believe it?! it was the dodgiest piece of shit ever and we achieved a DISTINCTION for it! we chucked a 9 hour session to start and complete it the day before it was due and oh my lord tht was hell. it started out all fun and exciting but by the end of the night we were all nearly at eachothers throat. but yeh the management tute was alrite too.

then

since i had a break me and leanne decided to go to shirley's marketing tute where they were having a class party (like in high school and primary school!! where everyone brings in food and the tables get put together hehe!). i didnt even belong in the class but i scabbed so much food i felt such a pig. we also had a quiz and their tutor never realised tht i wasnt apart of the tute LOL. there was so much food and BEER! this malay mature age student made like 3 huge containers of prawn crackers, sandwiches and biscuits (its always the mature age students tht r so hardworking...). it was all so coool!
but then wen it all finished the tutor talked to us abt the exam and my phone went off- right in front of her. she paused and stared right at me! i was so momentarily paralysed with embarrassment tht i didnt even apologise. lol oops.
yeh...i just found the whole party and quiz thing fun! and also the thrilling feeling tht i didnt even belong to the class added to the excitement. i know there is nothing thrilling abt tht....but still. just let me savour the moment ok?!
i guess its just nice to know tht u can still have tht sort of fun uni instead of it ending in high/primary school.


then after uni, me ceazer and eugene went to go get ceazer's L's hehe. we went to willagee but then ceazer 4got his letter of consent. so then we went back to his house and forged the signature (which i did a very bad job of by the way). we decided to go to the welshpool centre and i led the direction but got lost and then saved the day again after we weaved in and out of a thousand suburban roads. =D (go me!) ceazer kept saying tht all he knew abt the centre was tht 'there is a lot bush' HAHAHHA...sorry....i just find tht really funny. oh yeh! also something tht made me laugh throughout the whole time was wen eugene wud b driving and ceazer wud yell random road rules out to make sure eugene was driving properly LOL awwww ceazer ur a classic!

after THAT. eugene and ceazer went to play tennis at rossy and i sat on the grass listening to my ipod for little while. but then there wasnt enough racquets so while eugene played, me and ceazer stretched and did cart wheels on the oval HAHA. ceazer doing cartwheels hahahahahaha. when eugene took a break from tennis, we all had a running race around the oval and OMFG i cudnt even do a full lap. ceazer won followed by eugene and i came, predictably....last. i cut through half of the field and i STILL came last! oh the shame! but i have to admit, i havent done tht much physical activity since sport in yr 9 LOL. no wonder i get stitches from walking arnd uni....

before we went home i had to go buy milk and on the way to walking to the milk eugene sed to buy these cadbury thingos called 'snap' and OMFFFG they are sooooo goooooooood!!! me and my sister hav finished the pack already. and i spilled like a quarter of them in eugenes car hahahaha!

yeh it was a long day.....but an enjoyable one too.

btw in the time of writing this post, 5 trick-or-treaters have come to my hse and i have given them all a lollipop each. unless they are little cuties then i give 2, so they can rot their teeth...hehe... suckers.

long time no see my pretties!

\
woah havent blogged for yonks.
haha....hmm....where shall i start....oh yeh first and foremost, how awesome was the war between 'random' and 'me' (our hero)?! i found it absolutely hilarious and entertaining! thanks guys!

sooo all the internal assessments have finally finished! hooray for tht! but now we've got the damn exams! i've been treating the past few days like holiday which is really bad since we only have 2 more weeks til exams. fark. i am so stuffed for them.

shit man....have absolutely no idea wat to write abt.
oh yeh! MOS!!!
tht was like 2 nights ago and my oh my was it awesome or wat!!!! i have to admit tht it was real boring at the start....so boring tht i got hungry and me and shirley actually went to the top and bought hot chips for freaking $4!!!! i mean who actually eats at METROS?! the person who served us kept laughing at us. i think he thought we were drunk or something cos shirley went up to him so many times asking him for more salt, then vinegar, then sauce and then tissues. hahaha. so funny.

then the whole rave started happening and omg it was sooo gooooood! although it wasnt tht good for the entire thing. only for awhile, it was still worth it just for tht small amount of time. when it all finished and we went out the sky was so bright! it was such a weird feeling ahha and i had work in like 2 hours. i still felt really energetic wen we were going home and wen i went to work. but after 1pm my whole body and mind were on the brink of collapsing. now approximately 42 hours after the rave my entire body aches. every bone, every muscle and every movement made is in agony. i wish i had a personal masseuse tht wud follow me everywhere. i can't wait til i regain full mobility of my limbs without pain again. its so bad tht everytime i chew my temples hurt LOL.

anyway.

for the past three weeks in which i havent blogged, i have surfed the net like crazy. its not funny, i think i seriously have an incurable addiction to the world wide web. whenever i am not online or wen i don't go on for a full night i feel so proud of myself- how sad is that!!!! hahahahahha! i personally blame it on msn, friendster, myspace and blogs.

well during my wasted time on the net i came across this site.....which is.... surprise, surprise... a blog. hehe. u guys might have heard of it already, but it isnt like a normal blog. what happens is, this person started up a thing where people from all around the world sends him postcards with their deep and dark secrets depicted in the picture on the front of the postcard. but they usually have words to explain their secret too. some of them are really funny and creative but others are really sad, like there was one of this woman dying from cancer but she is keeping it as a secret from her family. so this guy who receives all these postcards puts them on his blog which is http://postsecret.blogspot.com. go visit it now! the bad thing about it is that he doesnt have archives so u gotta visit it regularly.
yes i know wat u r all thinking- these people could all b lying! well true, yes they could be lying, but who cares! its fun to look at!

better go now, gotta go shirlims hse to meet the others. yay no acct lecture tmr! last week of uni this week- double yay! =D

petrol pumping

yesterday after uni along the way home me and eugene stopped by at a caltex gas station and filled up his little yellow car with the cushion thing on his front seat that makes ur ass feel weird.

anyway.

eugene parked his car and i ran out so that i could put the petrol in. i stuck the thingo in the slot in the car and clicked the handle. but the clickety thing kept stopping the petrol going in. now, the last time i put petrol in the same thing happened, but somehow i found a point where it just flowed. whereas this time i cudnt, it just kept stopping. eugene saw this and got frustrated and wanted to take over. i refused. but after a few more futile attempts, i gave in and eugene tried teaching me. this is where the funny bit starts...

he goes, "my dad said that u have to keep on pushing it in and out, like this...(i start laughing and eugene is amused too)... otherwise it doesnt fit".HAHAHA. at this point i totally lose it and crack up laughing. eugene hits me over the head and tells me to stop being so sick minded then he starts to laugh too. i think the asian auntie opposite to us must have thought we were those crazy siao kias.

yeh...i just thought that was funny.

anyway better get offline, watch the last bit of survivor, read and then sleep. wow, see how theres no study in tht little plan of mine? damn shame. so damn behind in uni.

congrats to shirley for getting a placement with kpmg! =D

LOL my tagbox!

well, let's start this post off with what i did in my day. =D

woke up, took bus, went to uni and attended accounting lecture. i like cheow wing wong, i think he is much better than jeanette and bob.

then after tht, me and yueh lai went to lin's house cos we had a 2.5 hr break. lin gave us brownies which were really yummy- not too rich but not too dry either. she also showed us around her house which is very big and nice! me and yueh lai were mostly shocked at the size of her bathroom and then we learnt tht she has THREE of them! lol.

after lin's hse we drove past tht nice mansion down the road again with the breathtaking chandelier and yueh lai took some photos. too bad they had the curtains drawn. =/

then back to uni for a boring boring lecture tht me and shirley talked the whole way through in....

NOW......regarding the amusing comments on my beloved tagbox..........lol.............

i'm sorry (not really) to tht asia guy. there are heaps of other people who have links on their msn nics or blogs to the dance, i hope u are bagging them down too. i can take it off, if it really offends anyone but i never thought it wud b a problem. haha. unless of course tht was a joke, then i pat u on the back, cos it is amusing.

and then to random who sez my blog is boring....well.....DON'T READ IT. i have numerous links on the left hand navigation bar to other blogs, so u are welcome to click on them and read abt their thoughts on stuff rather than me ranting on about MY day. which i think is perfectly fine because it is MY blog and i can write anything i want on here, whether it is boring or not.

PLUS at the top of the page i have already mentioned tht 'u will b bored to bits with my ramblings', so its not like i didnt warn u or anything.

ALSO, eugene is happy for u to visit his site which is also a link on my blog so u can go read abt his thoughts. i also recommend 'xia xue's blog, she also write about her thoughts. =)

alritey i'm off to do my management and marketing assignment........yuk.

belated post: shirley lim's 18th bday picnic

about a week ago it was shirley's picnic. i found it fun and relaxing! it was nice to talk and catch up with people that i don't normally see at uni. and the food was yummy =) here are some pics.

hmm...i'm in all the pics...feel like such a camera whore.

just watched the asia cocktail dance on youtube. its pretty good! it looks fun. can't believe i missed it. here is the link for it, if u havent seen it yet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei31bVHGgCo

pasar malam!

last night was the curtin pasar malam and boy, did we have fun! haha. i know alot of people didn't really enjoy it tht much, but i had a great time. this was partly or mostly due to the 'icey ice' desserts that we had. but more on that later.

eugene came to pick me up, but before that he called and asked for 'vanessa'. and i go 'yes?'. then he pauses and goes 'oh sorry, wrong vanessa, bye.' and i'm like okaaaaay then. lol.

15 minutes later he calls again and says tht he is outside my house. i go out and then i ask him how come he called me earlier on? and then he goes 'ohhhh was tht u?! i thought i got the wrong number'.....hahahahahha eugene! so funny! apparently it was because of my voice, which is ten times more worse today. i went to the doctors and he sed tht i hav tonsilitis and bronchitis. which sounds about right, cos my throat is killing & i cant talk.

anyway, bak to last night!

the craziness all started wen we all decided to go buy a dessert called 'icey ice' which is like flavoured ice carved/ cut so finely and nice. it was really yummy too. as we were ordering the person asked for our names and i go "omg! lets make up fake names!" and then from tht point on we just totally lost it.

there was something in that 'icey ice' thing tht made us go hyper! i'll show u wat i mean....

before the icey ice we would b like this-

(me, joanne, shirley)

after we ate the icey ice...

and

(tina, kiki, betty)

yeh....scary stuff.
but the whole night wud not have been so fun without it!
we also scored a free drink because i think the asian chick thought we already paid wen infact we had not, so shirley was like walking away going 'lets goo, she won't notice...' and then i start walking while joanne is standing there holding the money. but she walks off too after me and shirley walked away, then we just cracked up laughing.

hmm.....i cant really be bothered writing anything else but overall (as i have mentioned) it was an awesome night filled with laughter and fun (for us 3 only i think LOL)! another funny moment was when we saw guys punching eachother in the balls as a greeting and wondered why in the world would u do tht!?!?! i mean, its not like us girls thump eachother in the boobs wen we see one another!

then around 10.15 shirley and joanne went home and i was with eugene and his friends vincent and keagan.

(eugene and vincent)

eugene wanted to wait for the last band to start playing to c if they were good. we waited 15 mins for the band to set-up and wen they finally started playing, we left cos they werent tht good at all. hmm all tht waiting time for nothing! lol. then eugene drove us home with his backlights not working and him driving straight wen he was in a turning lane LOL. yes, dangerous....but at the same time, thrilling.

ok i think thats it for me now, better get off the net. i was supposed to have work, but i was too sick to go and have basically spent my whole time on the net...omfg...SAD!!!

btw shirley- i'll write abt ur picnic in the near future lol.

adios ppl! oh yeh like my new layout? i don't know how to put comments on, so just tag my tagbox mmmmk? awesome!

i love surveys and h8 marketing

at uni right now (yeh thats right, at freaking 9.30am!) trying to do marketing presentation. but omfg i just cant b stuffed, so i am half surfing the net, chatting on e-messenger and attempting to do marketing. my grp member is on the comp beside me, hope he doesnt see. lol.

yay! cocktail tonight! i am rather excited! hope its gooooood!

msu ball & casino

casino & ruby room

feel soo out if it right now. lol. i "wanted" to study last night but nooo- ended up going to the casino and ruby room instead haha. morrison randomly called us while i was over at shirleys house to go cas. unlike last week wen i came home from metros and woke up 7 hours later i felt all fresh, this time i feel all dazed.

anyway!
we went to casino first and walked up and down the casino twice...how freaking sad. and then we decided to go ruby room but then ken sed his friend in vic park is having drinks. so me, shirley, stef, ken and morrison went to vic park to c ken's friend, sarah. we were there for like...i duno an hourish or mayb longer and they gave us a vodka mixed with orange juice. we were gonna follow them to the amp, but then we went back to cas instead haha.

casino was alrite, shirley won $100 omfg! too bad i didnt gamble haha. me and stef went to ruby room while morrison, twins, ken and cheng gambled.

the ruby room was ok, its much prettier and classier than metros. but i think i prefer metros. ruby room is waaay too crowded, u can just stand there and look like ur dancing because ppl arnd u would b pushing u. the music was normal, but as usual the good songs came on when we werent on the dance floor. there were like people of all ages there.
eventhough i always diss metros cos its FULL of asians, i think i like it better there- u know more ppl so its more fun.
we also saw muhammad, makeen and muhammad's primary school friend (i 4got his name). we pretty much stayed with them at the ruby room.

msu masquarade ball

two nights ago was the msu masquarade ball. haha...'masquarade'...only like 30% of the people there brought masks, other people *ahem joanne mok* stole masks from tables and claimed it as their own lol. it was alrite, more classy than our yr12 one last year, but the ballroom was heaps smaller! to sum it all up, i would say tht the ball wasn't shit but it was no way near worth the $84.25 i had to pay. however- the food was nice! we had prawns for entree, chicken for the main and for dessert we had tiramisu. check out the tiramisu...yummm, i didnt finish it though cos i was too full-

the whole night went really fast! i know it was 5 hrs but it seriously felt like 2. there was unlimited drinks but i drank more of coke and lemon lime bitters cos alcohol tastes like shit lol.
the music was ok, not really my cup of tea. but when westlife played me and joanne went full out on the dance floor and sang (i think we were the only people there tht knew the lyrics). shirley was absolutely hilarious, as she usually is with a little bit of help from the drinks. justine felt sick after drinking so was sitting with mun at the table, where they were later joined by jason, wei shyong and erm....gummy? i was like "WTF! how did u guys get in for free?!?! NO FAIR!"
we were put on the 'loser/random" aka "we-have-no-friends" table. it was all the way in the corner where we sat with total randoms. luckily they were nice randoms-


i didnt take much photos at all!! shame.
but here are the others tht i managed to scrounge-

sorry for the small amount of snapshots lol. i guess i just really wasnt bothered tht night haha. i don't think i'll go agen next year, but who knows!

alritey gotta go and c how far behind in uni i am, adios!

evidence of procrastination

for the last two nights i have gone to sleep at 3am and waking up at 7am. tonight is going to be no different.
why?

management 100 and marketing 100 are the shittiest units ever! i hate all the bulk assignments tht we have to do! i haaaate it!!!
