GONG XI FA CAI

I mentioned previously how I had Tennis Fever right, right? Well I went to play tennis on the weekend as I was getting into the mood of Men's Finals. WHICH SUCKED. HEAPS. Poor Andy, I could tell you were sniffling behind that rigid face of yours and Djokovic, I realise, you have fangs. Your mouth opened so wide that I saw those two vampire fangs stick out. And now, I actually don't hate you that much. Many would disagree with me on this, but you're kinda cool :D Peer Support was pretty cool except one kid with one of those common names accidentally went to another group. BUT we got him back :D Don't you love it when your group converses like theyre friends already and laugh together? I love my little kiddies! The boys were a bit quiet but them seem funny in a stoned kind of way haha.

Speaking of vampires, we had to order all those ages in poetry for english today and we realised all the 'times' related to characters names in Twilight. Like Edwardian= edward. Victorian = victoria. Jacobian= Jacob. How co-incidental ^^ And Miss Murphy is friggen awesome. So is the airconditioned classroom =) OHOH I bought my senior skirt- its a bit big but I'm wearing it lower on my hips cos I'm sick of skirts that ride up especially in summer.

Now you've probably heard about science vs belief and if I'm correct then it would be like antibiotics vs asian herbs or something like that. Different people say one of them work and the other doesn't but if you think about it, science is based on many conclusions drawn centuries ago and if technology wasn't as awesome as it is today, who's to say that it was so accurate? And if you think harder, doesn't that mean science is a belief? And those so called beliefs; if they work on whatever you're trying to cure, then who's to say its not science? Mind boggling...

Chinese New Year is on our doorstep and I believe it will be the year of the BUNNY! So to my chinese people, happy new year and hope y'all get your red packets!
OH and remember how last year CNY was on Australia Day? So when people asked me 'what did you do for Australia Day?' I said, 'I celebrated Chinese New Year' LOLOLOLOL

HAHAHAHA

Playing with Fire

Firstly, congrats to Li Na - even though you didnt win, you've done your country proud and made history. Good game and hilarious acceptance speech. To Kim Clijsters- I understand why they call you Aussie Kim- you're fricken amazing and congrats on your first Aus Open Title. For tomorrow ANDEH MURREH FOR THE WIN!

Now onto what happened today. I went to buy underwear in chatswood and the stupid counter girl gave me an extra 30% off the 25% off...LOL I hope that makes sense- I couldnt be bothered doing the maths but that means I did get quite a good bargain. And that wasnt just for 1 item, she did that for THREE items- so I got this Tokito cami for 5 buckeroonies. YES THATS FIVE DOH-LLAR!!

Pretty much bummed the rest of the day BUT I picked up this perfume bottle and it read 'inflammable'. Now I know that both inflammable and flammable mean 'easily set on fire' but seriously why would anyone bother to come up with a new word that sounds as if it's the opposite? I mean WHAT IF SOME FOREIGNER THOUGHT IT WAS NOT FLAMMABLE THEN SET IT ON FIRE? And speaking of fire, about a week ago, my mum got this plastic stick thingy and I had no idea what it was. I was in her doctor's surgery in front of what 7 patients? and just fiddling with this new toy I had no idea about. I finally found the push-up slide switch thingy and I noticed there was a hole in this plastic thing. So i stared at it down the barrell and slid the switch and KABOOM comes this FLAME straight outta the barrell and into my face ! IT WAS A BARBEQUE LIGHTER!! D: Luckily the flame was only small but to think of the consequences if my face was too close to the end makes me worry ><

Oh and for school, I bought those exercise books with plastic covers which means NO CONTACTING, NO FRAYING OF THE EDGES and (hopefully) NO SILLY TITLE PAGES FOR  TEACHERS! And I noticed at the back, they have an activity page with a maze, dot-2-dot and a easter word hunt. Looks like class just got a whole lot better LOL. AND thats not it! They have a map of the world in the middle with all the names of the cities. Since I'm not doing geography, I figured I'd write a little something about each city. For example I noticed the US has 'Phoenix'. If I am correct, Phoenix has something to do with Twilight so I wrote EDWARD CULLEN beside it. Wow, Im mega bored.

Beefy

I hope everyone had a great Australia Day, well one that was kinda Australian. I went to my cousins place to have a good Aussie barbeque with steak, beef and an actual outdoor barbeque. OH guess what?  I ATE BEEF FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 7 MONTHS!!!  No, I dont mean random strips of beef like those found in sushi, I dont mean beef flavoured noodles, I mean a patty of hardcore beef the size of my hand. All I can say is 'Holy Cow' :D Unfortunately my mother demands it be well done but that's okay, apparently my chances of getting mad cow's disease are reduced by a slightest amount. However one day at school, somebody's gonna have to make me some medium rare cow.

Okay the next bit I'm quite passionate about so it might seem a bit verbal diarhhoea haha.
The Australian Open. WHY IS IT SO WEEIRD THIS YEAR? WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYONE? Maybe it's just come to that inevitable time where the younger players come up the ranks and world no. 1's shuffle down-and Im mainly saying this to the men's draw. The women's draw seems fantastically intense and I'm all for Na Li..or Li Na im not sure ><  wow shame on me. Im SO sad that Nadal got knocked out- he's my favourite and I love him to bits and how I wish I was there to comfort him when his leg (?) went a little iffy!  Hey do you notice that we call him Rafa when we only say his first name, and Rafael when we say Rafael Nadal? OH and I want Ana Ivanovic's tennis dress she wore- it is quite the beautiful. And Sharapova's mic should be turned down a few notches. I don't get why they put Pat Rafter on commentary- he hardly said a word. Was it for the whole Dove Men's ad? Personally I'd rather get Henri Leconte for he is tres magnifique! Well as much as I admire Kim Clijsters, this year I feel it should be Na Li and of course Andy Murray. Hopefully no tears this time Andy :D

HOW HUMUNCULUS IS THIS CUP?!

The amazing dress!

Gotta have Faith

OMG the most epic thing happened yesterday night, besides Andy Roddick and Maria Sharapova being knocked out of the Open in straight sets. So I JUST finished watching the Roddick game and it was what 11.30? Then I decided to brush my teeth and I realised that my retainers ( for non braces people, its the clear plates you wear after having braces) were not in the box I usually put them in. I went to the kitchen to try find them and after searching the place for 10 mins they were nowhere to be found. So I woke up my whole house to look for them cos they're $600 and I wasn't prepared to waste some precious Chinese New year money buying a new pair.

I searched in biscuit tins, plates in the fridge, the cheese box, the milk carton, pantry, even in the freezer in case someone had frozen them in the ice tray but it was no where to be found. This took me another hour. So I thought 'someone must have thrown them out and it lies somewhere beneath all that rubbish in the garbage bin'. So you know what I did? At like 12.30am I went outside onto my street and hauled the otto bin up my very steep driveway and started taking bags of last night's food out. And this took some nerve- I hate the smell of bins, I hate random cocroaches roaming at night and I'm terrified of nocturnal wildlife. Using a pair of secateurs (?) I cut through numerous bags of food, rummaging through the waste of that afternoon's lunch. My retainers were no where to be found. Putting all the crap back into the bin was ultra hideous.

My parents had gone to sleep by then so after one last look in the kitchen I went to the recycling bin at 1 am and dug out some dairy cartons, paper, soft drink cans but again they were not there. STOP. Do you realise how hard it is to find? They're plastic acrylic and CLEAR and only 1 of the pair have a piece of metal on them.

So I went back upstairs and sat on the floor and thought about the afternoon.The last time I saw them, I was cutting a piece of cheese off the cheese block then the phone rang and I had to get it. I came back to eat the cheese... And I thought, if they were not in the house then they MUST be in the garbage. Then suddenly, OH MY GOSH ! THE GARBAGE GETS EMPTIED TOMORROW MORNING!!!! I wasn't gonna let some garbo crush my teeth straightening lovelies under all the GUNK of my neighbourhood! I said a silent prayer and leaped off the floor to get the bin again. It was about 1.30 BUT I NEED TO SAVE 600 MACAROONIES!!

THEN I pulled out another 3 bags I hadn't opened previously ( wow this family goes through a LOT of food) and at the LAST one I came to I saw a teenie glimmer of metal. I SHOUTED. LOUD. I FOUND MY BELOVED BEAUTIES!!!!! BOTH OF THEM!!! YES I went through half a box of gloves, YES it was 1.30 AM and I was scared to death, YES I probably looked like a hobo and YES I was half in tears because I smelt of the garbage bin, BUT I SAVED 600 BUCKS!!!!

And that is the epic story of how I saved my retainers. So today I bought denture, yes, denture tablets to sterilise them. I looked like an idiot walking out of chemist warehouse with denture tablets but I laughed to myself, knowing that I had faith to find those pair of plastics that gave me a reason to smile :)

If I were a boy

Oh dear father how can I ever forget how you wanted to me to be a boy? When I was young, you dressed me in Thomas the Tank engine overalls and huge t-shirts that were mainly blue and well, "boy-ish". At eight, I asked you to buy me a pair of nike shorts from asia and after 5 years of wearing them under my school uniform ( girls, remember how we did that?) , I realised they were actually a pair of boys swimming trunks. And how did I know that? THEY HAD A LINING IN THEM! =.= You gave me a spalding for my 10th (?) birthday and repeatedly requested I pick up football. You gave me extra food so I'd grow muscoolar but quite the opposite happened. Father, I am a girl.

You know what I did today? I used a pressure washer for the first time- they're in the shape of a machine gun and you pull a trigger to release a huge jet of water. It's almost like you're shooting at all the evil canevil yucky black bits stuck in the concrete. And now my driveway is the whitest thing along my street OH WOW LJ'S A GUN! hawwhawwhaww! . Man it was so fun. Anyone who wants a clean driveway-tell me :D Oh, and a lizard came into my house again and my dad started spraying it up the stairs with mortein. And guess what it did? It climbed up a few stairs and did a backflip o.O

Now with a little piece of cool advice: You know when to go to sleep when you're doing maths and suddenly
1) =0 looks like an open mouth
2) exercise 8D looks like a huge smiley
3) cos y looks...well cosy.

Overall-s

There has always been an association with painters and overalls and I really have no idea for that choice in fashion. I mean do people think the overalls act as covers for your under clothes? Highly illogical unless they are old and practically unwanted. What about your hair, where the paint is most likely to drip upon? And how is it any different to casual scrap clothes? Someone please tell me why this is. Anyway, I decided to help my dad paint the living room- yes the four walls and the ceiling. A trip to Bunnings resulted in two tins of paint- one pure white for the ceiling and a very pale brown for the walls, a colour scheme yours truly decided upon. And my outfit? My pyjamas and a nike cap, which really is an oversized polo and shorts.

I must say painting the ceiling is the best option for neck strain and toned biceps, and of course overcoming your fear of heights if you have a tall ceiling. My tip for the day? Don't EVER wash your brush and dip it into the paint while it's still wet- for some chemical reaction occurs with the paint causing it to become all foamy and fizzy. And when you apply it to the ceiling? The bubbles from the foam pop resulting in, well, a paint shower. Thank goodness for that nike cap or it may seem that I have dandruff once again.

You know those huge extended rollers you can use for the ceiling? I was directing my dad to which area he should 'patch' up because I'm OCD about uneven tones and just as he turns around to paint another patch, he hits one of the globes of our chandelier. As I hear the shatter of broken glass I burst into a fit of laughter ;)

No injuries for the day- unless you'd count the broken glass as one. But I did rip my big toenail in half. I was walking backwards and my heel scraped hard against that extra long toenail and it bent backwards. Not naice.

On another note it is BERYL'S SWEET 16TH!! Happy birthday sweet xx. Oh and I bought a new wallet. I love it. As much as I like Fish n Chips ^^

I really love aeroplane jelly

Yesterday morning I woke up feeling like..well a faggot you could say. So what did i do? I went out and blew 80 bucks on hair products. Cos you know, thats what girls do when they're mad ;) So i got the Curl Magic (curler), some conditioning spray and dry shampoo. In my defense, the curl magic was a bargain! $70 down to $55 =D And it was worth it- I think i really did some curl MAGIC. My noobness with curlers only made the left side look okay ><



And the day before that I was in Coles and I bought 'Create-a-Jelly' by Aeroplane Jelly. WHO KNEW YOU COULD MAKE YOUR OWN FLAVOURED JELLY? I went a bit crazy over it and added Peaches and Strawberries to Lemonade flavoured jelly. Then I thought HEY a SUMMER MOCKTAIL!




I've been watching Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares and I freaking love it! I love Gordon Ramsay too I mean the guy's just brutally honest. If he could stop swearing, WHO THINKS HE SHOULD BE ON MASTERCHEF? He's actually a good cook. And quite bluntly hilarious at times :D

Hooray for the QLD floods finally clearing up. But i think im going mad. I just cleaned the bathroom and I did a whole pile of ironing. I AM going mad, aren't I?

Funny Morning

OMG this morning on tv I saw the ad for proactiv. And guess who was advertising it?
JUSTIN BIEBER 
ROFL HAHAHAHHAHAA MAN THAT IS HILARIOUS! You know what else is funny? Ok so you know how my tv is blurry, well we have this other tv downstairs that aint blurry so my dad decided to connect the upstairs tv to the downstairs wire/aerial thing. SO NOW WE HAVE A 5M CORD FROM THE UPSTAIRS TV ALL THE WAY DOWN THE STAIRS INTO THIS LITTLE ROOM WITH A TV CABLE. Sorry, I found that incredibly funny :D

I watched Vampires Suck yesterday- and that is one CRAP movie, but I'm strangely left with this feeling of wanting a vampire lover o.O Actually wait no, I just want Matt Lanter ^^

Normal tv is incredibly boring now- I mean I GET that Atlantis really exists and I believe it is now called BRISBANE (LOL) but that's all I've been able to actually understand from the news. It really hasn't told me anything else. And for some reason, whenever I look at the clock nowadays, it says 11.11. I do make wishes. And they usually come true. Like when I had a dream in the Gold Coast, and i woke up to find it had actually come true =)

You know that saying 'Money doesnt grow on trees'? IM SORRY BUT ITS SO WRONG!!! Trees are used to make paper right, which is used to sell and earn profits so money actually does grow on trees. Also I believe in some countries, the 'paper' notes their currency is in, is derived from trees. SO IT ACTUALLY DOES GROW ON TREES !!!!

Latina

HERRO ! :D  Why am I so happy you may ask? WELL yesterday Michael told me about how you can download songs from mediafire so HOORAY that I have music again! On the topic of music, I realised that theres a lot of good songs by un-famous artists and that's big of me to say since I've always liked the mainstream music. After downloading a whole lot of songs, I went on youtube and checked out 'Lopez Tonight' omgad that guy is a good interviewer. And the good interviewees? Selena Gomez, Miranda Cosgrove, Boo Boo Stewart, Tom Felton, Russell Peters (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frW0KTxrkGg) the list is epic long but one person I didnt find interesting was Nina Dobrev. AND I figured that was because SHES A VAMPIRE. A really good lookin one. BUT what WAS interesting was what Lopez talked about. Did you know that Bulgarians shake their head when they mean 'yes' and nodd when they mean 'no'?? Tip for all yous who plan to go there someday :)

OHH and did you know that the ballkids in the tennis tournaments actually have to be able to roll balls in a straight line? Man that totally ruins my chances of being a ballkid oh boo =( And I'm really sad that Marat Safin retired. Dude, thats the saddest thing ever. Well go watch some of his dummy spats on court on youtube. I find them highly entertaining. O.M.G did you know Jen from  90210 is engaged to Tommy Haas?

Anyway, I bought that Perfect Italiano Ricotta- remember those hilarious adds with that guy going 'I love my mumma' and 'Aubergine'. Yeah,
It tastes DISGUSTING!!!

Redrum

HELLO EVERYBUDDY! Just came back from gold coast OHMYGOSH JIZZ AT THE COASTLINE :D Wow thats the first time ive used that word jizz.. eww.. anyway one of my new years resolutions is to NEVER LOOK BACK so i aint erasing that word. Speaking of words, did you know that REDRUM is MURDER backwards?!!
Okay so like everyone else, I fell in love with the beaches and ocean breezes and i spent hours outside at night, sitting on the balcony enjoying the wind. I even fell asleep. SO what i have decided to do is re decorate my room into, thats right, A BEACH.
And you know what else I fell in love with? BATMAN! NO not superman- his hair is gay, BATMAN. His darkness is so attractive... And where, might you ask, did this love for the dark knight blossom? MOVIEWORLD! OH batman DO save me when you will! Yeah so i bought a batman lanyard ( the thing to hold keys) so I'd never lose my locker key.
All this happened at WB movieworld, where i went with Beryl and discovered that the place is a whole lot bigger when you're a kid. Nevertheless revisiting your childhood with Justice League, the Joker, Tweety, Bugs Bunny and BATMAN is one of the best things that couldve happened to me this year.

KAY so tennis is back on ! And my tv is screwed- theres all these double lines around stuff and I can never read the scores. But what i find most frustrating is that I DONT GO FOR ANYBODY in ANY MATCH! Its like I don't actually care who wins and I end up judging them based on their choice of shots, previous history and the clothes they wear LOL. Man, tennis clothes are really beautiful-esp ana ivanovich's hot pink dress XD Dark blue clothes are a NO NO cos they end up blending into the background. OH WELL I GO FOR JO-WILFRIED TSONGA.
                         and i cant wait for the famous FRENCH COMMENTATOR!
oh frenchmen are so cute =)

A few questions:
a) Did you see that guy who has the incredible radio voice?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cl_fMxQCTw 
b) Do you reckon Korean boys in dramas look too much like girls because of their hair and perfect skin? OH GOSH i hope i dont get flamed for this ><
c) What would you be if you didnt go to ruse? (personally I'd be a police woman or real estate agent lol )
d) When people text you, do you imagine them saying the words out aloud to you?
e) Why do people say 'I cracked up so hard'? It doesnt make much sense to me, I mean if you crack up, you're not hard anymore, you're...fragile.
