8:27 pm - Bite size...
|
So i've been going through a pretty tumultuous time at the moment, experiencing the highs and lows of my job and life in general. I do know that life is tough, but i didnt think it would be so overwhelming at this stage in my life. Of course when i started working i was full excited about the endless possibilities of job, but when reality hit, my job didnt seem all that glamorous. Yes i know that sounds very immature, and when i think about it now its a very narrow minded outlook on my job. Accounting is always going to be a job that's not exciting in nature, but as i got told, a job is a job, and its up to you what you make of it.
All of the above is pretty obvious to probably most of you, but it seems to help when i hear it from other people. I had a talk today with one of my good mates, which i have not seen in ages, he's one of those peoples who are genuine do gooders, in the nicest way possible. Like he doesnt say that he'll help out the less fortunate he actually does. For example, he gave up his time and money of $5000 to help the kids in africa fight against aids and poverty, and i find him to be inspirational. I know in myself that i can never do half the things that he does, but seeking his experience and what drives him to do what he does really does screw your head back on, then you realise hey life isnt as bad as it seems.
I pretty much got told to think about this...how do u eat an elephant when its so big? well obviously u do it in little bite sizes and eventually u will get there, a good metaphor for life. i think the problem most people have is that yes we understand that to go through life, we should take "bite sizes" until we get to our goal, but the problem is what are the bite sizes? what are the neccessary steps to get to that ultimate goal.
Anyway sorry about this random babble...hows everyone else going?
Also my brother actually said for the 1st time that he knows his gf is the one he's going to marry...thats a huge thing! i cant imagine that to be honest, he's still pretty young but i guess if u know u just know!
current mood:  contemplative

10:25 pm - My 1st day at work!!!
|
Hey guys, well today was my first day as an "auditor"...OMG OMG Yay...it was pretty cool, the first two days are inductions, which consist of getting to know your team mates, policies, procedures and alot of forms to fill out PLUS i got my semi new Toshiba laptop! The third day consists of hardcore audit training so that should be interesting. i'm pretty chuffed and excited atm! I was hell nervous and un excited before i started work, due to the fact that i was still tired from all my travels and i was scared blah blah blah, but once in there, getting fed information about the firm etc, im really excited and proud to work for my company.
We actually get to experience a merger pretty soon, so that should be interesting to see how everyone amalgamates, especially considering company culture and policies are pretty different.
Also we have audit camp to Sydney pretty soon, i think its in February but the dates keep changing, thats soo awesome hey. Anyway working has stressed how small perth is, because i found out a guy named James (worked at Westnet) knows Adam Benn and Simony! i was like omg...and not only that this guy Anton, recognised my bro from uni cos they both went to Murdoch. How funny! All in all, i felt pretty professional, being in the city with the "suits" and actually being decked out in "business attire" actually helps.
NOTE FOR SIMON: Insolvency sounds sooo cool hey, it involves forensic accounting as well, and what has happened is that the Big 4 have scrapped the "insolvency" services, so they arent concentrating on it that much, so the 2nd tier firms pick up the jobs. Anyway since Perth is booming atm very few companies are in liquidation, but the boom is probably going to die down in maybe 4 years or later, sooo by that time i should be experienced, and may be switch, cos they dont want to recruit any grads out from uni cos of the lack of experience, which is understandable, considering you are basically running a company. Anyway the manager for insolvency soo sold it to me...i was like im there! anyway, im also very keen on a secondment, either to orange county, california or LA, apparently its awesome, and its incentive for me to finish my CA, cos u need to do that before u can travel. Anyways sorry about the long update, hopefully that gives u a heads up on some choices. Also u still up for moving out? cos i think i am...neways talk to u about it when u get back! Also simon dont forget to enrol for graduating online, that u are going to attend the ceremony etc ok? Love u long time :)

2:34 pm - What has the world come to?
|
Hey guys Happy new year, i hope you guys are having an awesome time down there in Perth!!! Unfortunately, Bangkok has been bombed 3 times by terrorists, and therefore all new year events have been cancelled and everyone has been ordered to go home...those stupid FUCKERS (excuse my language) but seriously they have managed to take away everyone else's joy. Why can't they leave the 30 million people here alone, who only have these couple of days of in the year to enjoy and celebrate with their friends and family. I really don't understand.
Anyways guys me and my family are safe, its just i dont know if im going to see adam and tracy on the 2nd of Jan cos now its become more dangerous...how annoying! Take care and have an awesome new year guys...lots of love

4:59 pm - Hello...goodbye
|
Hey guys, im sooo sorry i couldnt catch up with all of you...and im sincerely sorry cc for making you cancel your plans, i feel really bad, i promise i will make it up to you when i get back from thailand! Anyway i'm soooo glad to be back in Perth, i was getting really homesick and i had just been through alot of shit that all i wanted was a hug from everyone!
So on the 24th december, after a teary goodbye to my brielly, i got to Heathrow airport to board my plane back to Perth, when i get told its been delayed 3 hours soo i was like SHIT SHIT that means i have a chance of missing my connecting flight to Perth. Anyway the drama doesnt end there, once i went to check in, the lady at the counter said there was something wrong with my passport...she took it away from me and officials started to look at it, and it was getting full on sooo i started panicking and getting angry cos i was like umm there cant be anything wrong with my passport because i entered with that passport...anyway it ended up being THEIR fault, cos the lady typed in the wrong code, which made it seem like my passport didnt exist or something, by this time i was REALLY shitted off cos of all the crap they had put me through with no apologies. So i proceed to departures and i realise that they hadnt given me my passport back, soo i was like SHIT SHIT and i had to run back down to check in and get my passport back...THEN i ran back to departures and i was stopped there by security who said to me "you're only allowed one bag". I had a backpack and a like handbag, and i said "are u serious? i cant shove my handbag in my backpack because i had breakable souveniors in there" and they security man said "i dont care...just do it"...so at this moment in time i was just manic and losing the plot a little...they made me take out all of my souveniors, carry them and put my handbag in my backpack...and i was like what the hell...when u scan my bag through the machine u will see i have nothing like knives on board! I was really really upset at this point in time, and then i had to go find a phone card to call my dad and tell him that my flight was delayed so we wouldnt panic cos he was picking me up from the airport. anyway i got told to go to 3 different places to which NONE sold phone cards so i was forced to go buy a book to get change to ring. By the time i rang my dad and then denny, i was like in a ball of tears...i just couldnt believe my luck and i really didnt want to miss the plane to Perth...to which we were now informed that we were going to miss, which meant i had to spend a night in Brunei by myself on christmas which was abit upsetting!
So we finally leave Heathrow airport and fly to Dubai for our 1st pit stop, and whilst there i was told that we had made up enough time to catch the perth connection, to which i was ecstatic!!! i then went on and asked other flight attendants to confirm this was true and ended up being toyed with because i got 10 different responses such as "the flight has actually been cancelled", "you wont miss the plane", "they will wait for us", "they cant wait for us"...omg i was like someone F&^KING tell me what is going on! and no one could give us a straight answer until we landed in Brunei and they told us you are going to be here overnight, to which i started balling my eyes out again. anyway we got shipped off to this hotel nearby and they had to photocopy our passports to which yet ANOTHER error was made, in which they swapped the printouts of this girl's foto to my information, by this point i may have yelled at them and said do i honestly look like her? cos the picture they had on there for me was this white aussie chick...i was like GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. sooooo after spending a boring day and night cooped up in the hotel with nowhere to go and nothing to do, they gave us a free dinner voucher to which i proceeded to use cos i was like yeah at least food will make me feel better...WRONG AGAIN. i ended up being one of the few people who was stranded by themselves, cos everyone eelse was stranded with their family, so they were enjoying a family dinner...i just had a HUGE homesick moment then. Sorry i know this is a huge whinge but it was just such a big ordeal! and WAIT there's more...so i get to the Brunei airport, ecstatic about finally being able to get home to Perth, when i went to board the plane the attendants said "your ticket is invalid"...and i LOST IT...i was like "what do you mean its invalid...i PAYED for this ticket just like everyone else did"...to which the lady laughed nervously...so i was like "this is not anywhere near funny, i do not want to be stuck by myself here for another night!!!" so she ran off and fixed the problem, to which i was like thank goodness!!! But wait there's still more...once we boarded the plane, it got delayed another 2 hours because of "technical difficulties" that the engineers had to fix then, when they had a whole F&^KING day to do it before hand! Anyways i ended up taking 2 days to get home, but im really glad to be back at least for abit...i cant wait to go see my mum in thailand, i miss her like crazy...
The rest of my trip was awesome, it really is an eye opener!!! Just amazing sites and everything i've seen. And also seeing Simon in London was amazing, i couldnt believe it! However it was the weirdest feeling spending a whole day with a good mate and saying goodbye again after not seeing him in a month, to not see him again until another month and a half...i felt like a toss crying, but i was like omg im not gonna see him AGAIn for awhile. Anyways i will elaborate on my europe adventures when i get back, i just needed to vent about stupid ROYAL BRUNEI!!!NEVER FLY THEM!!!
Everyone please have a safe and happy new year, i love you all and take care :D

12:48 pm - Hello from switzerland...
|
Hey guys how you all going?
Me and brielly got to play in snow yesterday and make semi snow angels, it was the BEST thing ever, its like nothing i have ever seen before in my life...i've got to say that no words or pictures will this place justice...it was just amazingly breathe taking...i turned into a child straight away, i didnt know where to go first. The mountain we went on is called Jungfraujoch and its the "top of europe"...how awesome is that? it was -10 degrees as well sooo yep we were freezing our little behinds off up there but it was well worth it!
Also we decided to move from Lauterbrunnen hostel cos it was scary, we were like the only people there and i heard creaks at night and we were very near a cemetry which scared the living shit outta me even more. We are now in interlaken which is more lively and we feel way more safe!!!
Hmmm omg i have to share with u...Berlin has the most awesome night clubs ever...and guys ...WAIT...WAIT...nudie downed 10 drinks, was still stnading and lasted the WHOLE pub crawl. we were all drunk as anything but it was awesome...they managed to get over 100 drunk people onto a train where we all crammed...ahhh good times...here's brielly to tell u more.
Hey people, so glad we're out of that creepy hostel in lauterbrunnen. Not only were we the only people staying at the place, we were the only people in the whole area after 6pm, once reception closed, that was it!!! Very, very strange. When you hear footsteps up and down the stairs, when your the only people there, you know somethings not right! But the Jungfrau was the coolest thing i have ever done, and im so happy for nuddy. She was like a kid in a candy store, she didnt know what to do first, i have some hillarious photos of her eating snow (not a good idea at -10 degrees) hehehe, ah little nuddy. We also got to go through a glacier! they had built tunnels through the middle of a glacier, we were skating around like nutters, i think we may have disturbed the other tourists a little. oh, and nud wanted me to tell you that you should not eat icecream, and then go outside into the freezing cold. We did this in Berlin, not the best idea really, we were sooo cold, it hurt so bad!!! Anywayz were off to Milano, in italy 2morrow, cant wait. BYeeeeee. "high on the hill with a lonely goat, Yodle ay yodle ay yodle ay de hoo"
also denny its nud again btw, i didnt bring any tuna...how proud are you...but let me tell u i've been eating tuna non stop here...hmmmm its sooo yummy. also umm umm ummm

4:02 pm - Berlin!!!!
|
Hey guys im in Berlin at the moment freezing my chops off. its not funny how cold it is here, im struggling to type this now! ok i have to tell u CC that they have like a BILLION doner kebab shops here in Berlin which they call "Kebaps"...hahaha theres some german lingo for u youngins out there...we caught the train last night from paris and it was one long ride but the beds were actually better than the ones in our paris hostel. Meanwhile brielle got her wallet stolen in paris while we were doing our laundry so that wasnt much fun...we had to stop the cards and they had already taken $2000 aussie dollars from her! we went to the french police station which looked like a bathroom, and got a police report. we think we knew who took it, cos there was a huge african american guy that followed me and asked me where i lived...so i pretty much ran. We both get abit freaked out now when we hear footsteps behind us, but were safe so its all good. also we decided to go to the "Moulin Rouge" to see the outside, it was nothing fancy at all but once we got there we had dirty french men propositioning us soo we ran outta there real quick smart.
i must say thogh that the Germans are alot friendlier than the french, we always got glares from the french but the germans are more helpful and smiley which is soooo much better. i stick out like a sore thumb in Berlin though cos there are harldy any asians, whereas France there were heaps. Do u know whats funny though, every county we have gone to has got a "china town"...i was like hey theres my people. hahaha good times.
Me and brielle are going to go on a pub crawl tonight...it should be awesome...OMG a pub crawl in germany. SICK SICK SICK!hehehehe. im sooo excited n i could do with the alcohol to keep me warm. the food here is sooo cheap compared to paris and even australia. a pizza is 2 euros which is approx AU$4...and the alcohol here is cheap too... i saw a chardonnay for 1 EURO. the only problem is that our bags are soo heavy to lug around the rail way that me and brielle have literally gave away HALF of our clothes cos its that diificult to get around otherwise...otherwise id stock up on alcohol for u guys...sorry!
ok thats it for now...bye guys

4:40 pm - Recollections of the days sooo far...
|
Hey guys...
So i havent done a proper post and i have time today sooo here goes. Firstly shout out to Annie and Andrea...english boys are very good looking! i will be sure to pass on your numbers. Dont worry Denny i'm totally behaving myself, cos i think you're better :D ok everyone can go awww wateva leave me alone. Anyways we nearly missed the damn train to paris on the count that traffic in london was shocking...and once on board people thought we were absolutely NUTS...cos we were running around looking for space to put our luggage down cos there was NONE! neways once that drama was over, we got the hostel to find out it was "lock out" until 5pm and we were there at 2pm, but nicely this lady let us in, and we went to go explore Paris randomly walking in all directions. We saw the nicest buildings and sites and it was just awesome! yesterday went up to the eiffel tower and it was just amazing, its just like from another world. today went to the louvre and it KILLED us, cos it was sooo BIGGGGGG. neways we saw other wicked sites such as notre dame, the arc, mont matre and more things, but i have to show u the pics and then u will go ooohhh ahhhhh. yeah im loving paris, i got boozed last nite on wine which cost us 2 EURO...i mean guys HELLO of course im gonna get boozed on cheap wine. a huge bottle of smirnoff costs 2 EURO i was like OMG OMG i love this city. aaahh good times. i would sooo carry some back to OZ but unfortunately it means i have to lug it around germany, switzerland and italy which i cant hack. DAMN.
neways i think jet lag totally caught up to me today, i was just fading in and out the whole day, i felt like my head was in the clouds hey. Hey denny, since u look at what people wear, you'd love paris, it's really interesting to see what they wear, cos it looks good and different. i bought myself a pair of addidas boots from paris...naughty i know but it looks hot and different.
Ummmm oh the night i got boozed, which was last night, stumbled down to maccas which cost me $10 aussie dollars...it was good though, cos the mcchicken was actually chicken, but it was still a rip off. yeah the thing here is food is pretty pricy, and to get a decent priced meal u have to walk quite far to get it, cos its hard to find one, thats why people here are sooooo super skinny.
Oh we finally met our roomies last night, one is american, and he's trekking everywhere, i'm totally jealous, he's already been everywhere and he has 20,000 to spend...we like him though cos he gave us a whole box of belgium chocolate for no reason :D sweeeettt. the other italian dude is pretty cool too, he's friendly but me and brielle offered him wine last night, and i think he drank it all...hahaha...oh well it was cheap...and i was already drunk from one glass. it's cool sometimes even just seeing people walk around in paris, if u walk like u dont give a shit, then they wont look at u funny, cos thats what they do. So one night me and brielle got all dressed up and did the "i dont give a shit walk" and we got no weird looks :D it actually worked a treat.
How is everyone anyway? has denny had his bday party yet! everyone better post and tell me about it. awww i miss u guys alot.
Signing out from sensational paris. speak soon :D

7:09 am - I'm in PARIS!!!
|
Hey guys...
hows everyone going??? I think i'm just recovering from jet lag hey...last night i went to sleep too early like at 7pm and sooo it led to me getting up at 6am, to which no one was awake. Yep pain in my ass!!! Neways the plane ride was sooo long, we and brielle started to go abit delirious, cos of lack of sleep and the plane was abit "dodgy", but we survived. OH OH Dubai airport is sooo ridiculously big, we got lost there for abit.
Anyways paris is really pretty, it's almost like you're in another world...the people are a little snobby though...but you'll get over it :D Oh first day of london, got there and it started hailing and do u know what i forgot? yep waterproof shoes...soooo i was like walking with water in my shoes not pleasant at all!!!
Here's brielle to say hi:
hello everybody. loving it loving it! I'm so excited to be here with nuddy! so today we are going to the eiffel tower. yes, we will take many photos. i'm impressed with our navigational skills. we actually got to the right hostel, without any help!
It's me again...its more like brielle's navigational skills not mine :D hehehhe we are with two random dudes at this hostel, dont really know who they are cos i was asleep and it was dark.hahaha

7:24 am - Procrastination is a killer...
|
Hey guys, i just looked at the time and AAAHHHH its 3pm and i realised i have done nothing apart from talk to andrea on the phone...and procrastinating for the rest of the time. So i thought what better way to feel like i've accomplished something than to post on LJ!!!hahaha soo lamo...
Anyways my parents have gone to HK, so damn lucky i wish i was there with them...the problem is the house is tooooo quiet now that i cant study, but when my parents are home its tooooo noisy. Fine so maybe the point is i dont want to study.
I MISSSSSS EVERYONE...like hello i havent even spoken to alot of u clowns, apart from andrea...but i can do without a conversation with her :D only kiddding..."i loves you so muches i cannot sleep for winks ;)" Anyways what was my point? oh yeah cammie...how is everything? any goss??? and tracy and adam and simony where have they gone off to? awww man BOOOO, the weather is sooo nice outside but im inside how crap is that?
Hey random thought about things such as msn or livejournal, the pros and cons of it. Like the pros are obviously people can express themselves "freely" without interruptions from chumps like cc (only kidding cc :D) but the disadvantage is totally the lack of like face to face communication. As lamo as this is...me and my brother talk but we seem to be able to "confront" more issues over msn, despite the fact that he is downstairs and i'm upstairs...we should just talk to each other face to face. It's full trippy.
ok thats my 2 cents worth for today...have a good day guys
current mood:  stressed
current music: Ali & Murphy - Bou'Ghetto

4:31 pm - 30 minutes to kill...
|
Hey guys i'm at uni 30 mins before time, so i thought i'd do a little post. I just read my star sign and its soo inaccurate!
Capricorn:
You have energy to burn, dear Capricorn, and you intend to do so. Call up friends to join you in the park for biking or rollerblading. Or set up a round robin tennis match for the afternoon. Enjoy your day outdoors, but take care not to push yourself too hard. If you strain muscles today, it could be weeks before you're fully healed. If you pace yourself, drink plenty of water, and take periodic breaks, then you will enjoy the day with no repercussions.
Firstly, i have no energy to burn, i am quite buggered from work! Anyways yesterday was my first official day of 'cleansing' and going vego for 10 days which means no meat, egg, dairy or alcohol! YEP its pretty harsh, but hey someone's gotta do it :D Nah its really not that bad hey, my family does it every year and its actually very beneficial, cos spiritually they say you're cleansed and physically you feel healthier! So its a win win.
i was reading a magazine today at work and it had the acronym for fear is Forgetting everythings all right! i like it!!! Well i say that to myself now, it's my catch phrase, cos i think for me fear is the big factor which holds me back from alot of things. Things such as getting a job, relationships, and stuff like that. I know its totally lamo, but yeah i guess the only way to overcome fear is to tackle it head on, which is always easier said than done.
I can't believe it's nearly november guys! seriously has this year flown by for all of you? i feel like i just graduated highschool last year or something...i dunno strange strange feeling hey, but its good. i can't wait to go to europe, the only thing i'm worried about is me getting sick cos i have a really bad immune system! I'm gonna have to rug up in good old long johns (i think thats what they are called).
Yes i know my thoughts on this post are scattered everywhere, but i blame my hardcore allergy medicine my mum gave me, its really kick ass, but at the same time i'm REALLY drowsy, so there's the trade off! Anyways hmm what was i saying...oh yeah today when i was at work selling magazines and lotto, i observed that guys spent more money of scratchies and lotto, whereas females spend more money on magazines. For example, if a male wins lotto or scratchies, they will dive in and buy another one and another, whereas the females take their winnings and buy a magazine. i find that fascinating, i think i would choose to buy a magazine with my winnings as well,well it actually depends on how much i won. On that note, CC heard u won lots of money, sooo drinks on u next saturday hey ;) Only kidding cc!
Oh man i'm quite hungry, and all i have for dinner is a tofu sandwich...hmmm yum. oh man, let me count when my last day is hmmm, yay i can eat my tuna on next wednesday! Ok well i hope you're all doing well, i'm going to go walk to class now :D
BYE

2:06 pm - a worthy blog...
|
Hey guys i really should be finishing my assignment at the moment but i'm in sucha blogging mood. Firstly i was at the moon was again with Simon this time, we ordered a pizza to share and simon ordered a red wine as well cos it was $2!!! So anyways we were starving and looking forward to the pizza...and lo and behold 50 mins later, all the other tables had been given their food and we were still waiting...so we were like NO WAY are we waiting for our food. So we got up to leave and instead of they were all apologetic and everything and we thought that they would at LEAST give us the wine "on the house" (i mean guys it was $2) but instead they charged us for it. We then walked out and within 2 seconds of us walking out they screamed "the pizza is ready" and we were like no thanks, i mean how come it took 2 seconds to whip up our pizza then, when before hand we were waiting for an eternity!ARRGGHHH, sorry its probably not that exciting of a story but i just needed to vent. Anyways we ended up walking to Hogs Breathe and that worked a treat!!!
It was really good to just take a night off and relax for once, like enjoy our night and relish in the fact that i'm graduating soon. I know i bitch and moan about uni, but i do enjoy it, but its just we never really get time to stop and enjoy those moments or the joy of uni, instead we are rushed all the time, its like assignments, exams and on top of that go get yourself work experience or else you're gonna be screwed. Anyways, it was just a really enjoyable night for me, i've had a really wonky couple of months and tonight was just like pure joy, like i felt like i was a kid again...and not having a worry in the world.
Ok well i'm off to try and do some of my assignment, but sunday night was soo fun guys and cammie happy birthday for today!!! love you heaps and i hope ur wish was that ur baby is a girl :)
current mood:  cheerful
current music: U n ur hand

Hey guys...
So i got bored of my off colour red and decided to dye my hair a nice "dark brown" so i bought a packet that said "chocolate" on it...yes you would all agree with me it sounds nice huh? WELL ITS NOT!!! i swear i realise that i wanted "dark" hair colour but i didnt want black, which is exactly what i got. I mean if i wanted black i woulda gotten "black".HMMMFFFFF...not a happy camper, oh well im just gonna wear lots of head bands and tie my hair up, thanks to andrea's ingenius plans :) ehhhh it'll grow on me someday.
Well atm i'm quite stressed out over this stupid assignment i have which involves analysing CRAP LOADS of annual reports, so i decided to go for a long walk to clear my head...and GUESS WHAT! i found my old all time FAVOURITE tracks, i was sooo happy!!! u know when u listen to those old songs and you just feel happy for no apparent reason? Fine maybe it's just me but i was chuffed as chops! The CD contained shout outs to Bon Jovi "Always", 3T " i need you", Everclear "Wonderful" and etc (ok guys you can stop giggling now). Yes atm i'm riding a happy wave of old songs i just listened to, its weird i feel so calm now.
Anyways i'm off to uni now...oh last night me and brielle booked our hostels for europe. The one place that i REALLY want to go to is Switzerland, we are going to Zurich and Swiss Alps. The place that we got in the Alps is soooo gorgeous its like ur own little cottage in the middle of snow!!! i can't wait...im sooo happy just thinking of that!Although i must say Switzerland was bloody pricy hey...and these are prices for "hostels"...but they dont look like ur ordinary hostels, they are quite swanky looking!
Ok enough from me...i can't wait until Saturday guys......GOOOOOOOO my beloved EAGLES!!!

1:13 pm - I'm gonna beat CC!!!
|
Hey CC this post is a little shout out to you...i'm gonna try beat your post in length and better utilise my "free" LJ apace...ahhh the asian in me!
So this week hasnt been quite as chipper for me...i kinda lost it crying at uni in lecture...I KNOW how inappropriate! i felt like a real tosser i was like ohhh crap let me just dissapear somewhere. Im ok now, i just kinda felt like everything just hit me. This month has been really crap and i just felt like i havent had time to stop and process everything...ever since my uncle passed away, going on "break" or something with james and uni i felt like i was losing it. I couldn't handle the pressure and i know i should be more grown up about everything but my way of dealing with things is crying and it kinda all came out last night.
Ok sooo let me just use this time to vent about my "issues"...firstly with my uncle passing away i dont think there's much to say but it's just really sad and it's really stupid how something bad has to happen in order for me to realise how lucky i actually am. I know i know its soo cliche but its also soo true, i just appreciate having friends around...like even if i dont get to see u guys that often just knowing that you guys are there makes me feel a hell of alot better.
Ok soooo now about james...it's been really hard. Ok this isnt really "airing dirty laundry out" i hope, cos i dont think he will be reading this and this post is pretty much directed at u guys yes u guys are my "target" under a primary boycott...hahahaha im a nerd wateva, cammie should know this its trade practices i have a test this thursday! anyway... i think things are getting better now but at times i still find myself questioning if i've done the right thing with getting back together with him...i guess i will never know but at least now i'll have no regrets. The thing that really got to me about the situation was when i got people consoling me going "oh you can do better!" (and yes ive sooo been guilty of doing that) but its just hearing it like HEAPS and i mean HEAPS doesnt really help when ur trying to deal with a situation. It's like i heard it from my parents as well and im like well i dont wanna do better! If only they knew the dickheads i got before hand they would know that i have gotten BETTER. Adam and i had a conversation at cammie's place and he was like in essence no one really "knows" what your relationship is like and you should base it on whether he's good to YOU...and i was like thinking aaaahh adam u sure are the real life yoda my friend. At the moment im happy and thats all i want for myself, actually i just want to get through this month as well its been a pain in my ass!
Moving along to my uni situation...(btw i know im rambling but i am sooo determined to beat cc's length is post...but im tiring already...i feel my fingers cramping). I did REALLY poorly in an assessment worth 50% of our grade and i just freaked out. As pointed out bluntly by my bf i am a "negative person", which is harsh but the truth. i see things in a negative light and i'm honestly trying to change that...cos the only person that really brings me down is myself. I started to fret and hyperventilate about how im not going to finish uni now and all these over dramatic thoughts and basically i freaked out cos i looked at things in a negative view. But i have simon and tracy (who thank goodness for them...they are my rock at uni *thanks guys*) and they looked at things in a positive light saying we still have assignments to make up ur marks etc...and i realised how immature i was being. Thats the one thing i can say i hate about myself...my immaturity. its time for me to grow up (even though im sooo not ready to sometimes) but like my lecturer said its not like ur going to start crying at work cos something went wrong (which is what im scared of doing), it would be totally embarrassing!
Woahhh that was an intense vent for me...on a lighter note, i cant wait to go to europe...its like something i've been looking forward to for AGGGESSSSS...i love travelling its like a passion i wish i could convert into a money making job! if i were maybe hot, blonde locks and if i could speak well i would SOOO apply for "great outdoors" how wicked would that be! DDREEAMMM COME TRUE!!!hehehehe. i remember having a conversation with andrea first then with cc, about how i envy cc and denny and even bingard being really socially like they would just talk to everyone and anyone and its one fine quality! i wish i had that...social butterflyness that the boys have :)
Anyway i wonder how andrea is going nowadays...dude i feel like i havent seen u in centuries...NO JOKE!!! and cammie how r things with the pregnancy coming along?when are u quitting work and joining me and starting your own "my space"?hehehe.
Ouuuuchhhyyyy hand is cccrammmping must continue...but cant fine wateva cc u win! r u proud of my effort though?hmmmmmmmm
