Where do cows like to go?
The MOOvies.

[sarcastic laugh and very very slow clapping]

Today, I went to the movies with Sheridan, to watch NEW MOON. I promised myself that I wouldn't waste money going to watch that film, but =_= I suppose it was alright... o_o"

I'm surprised that we weren't the only people watching - I thought that everyone that wanted to see it had already seen it. But anyways, before the movie started, Sheridan entered and exited the theatre like, 3 times >_> Everyone thought we were crazy. And if they hadn't thought we were crazy yet, we were having straw fights. Halfway through the movie, that fight kind of resumed, followed by a bit of popcorn throwing.

OH and there was someone else that I knew there, so ._. LOL I'll be expecting weird looks from David the next time we meet haha ^^

After the movie, we wandered around the shops for a bit x) Gotta love "The Reject Shop" ;)

And mmm.. I can't remember anything else right now, because I am kinda sleepy ><" heh...

HUEY DOROTHY'S COOKING ADVENTURES

Today, I did the most outrageous thing...
I cooked something that was not, infact, sweet.

*gasp*

>_>"

After looking around youtube absent-mindedly, I came across a guy called "foodwishes", and I looked through a few of his videos. I noticed one about mashed potatoes. OKAY so I adore potatoes, no matter what form they are in. "The Apple of the Land" as the French would say. But I think I am getting a little off topic here... where was I...

OH so YES I made mashed potato. I didn't fail that much. Except it was kind of lumpy. MEH I'll do it better next time ;)

My mother then insisted that I cook spaghetti >_> That was really freaky. She like just EXPECTED me to know. Well, I expected that I would know too. Pasta and sauce - how hard can it get? Well, only as hard and dicing onions without crying ><"

It wasn't such a disaster, because my mum was constantly looking over my shoulder shouting directions as to what to do. Thank goodness. :)

There was some chicken stock left over, so my mum decided to make chicken and sweetcorn soup :3 omnomnom..

But you know what is really weird?! Who in their right mind would suddenly decide to put corn and chicken together into a soup >_> Crazy.

Almost as crazy as apple and pork.

And bread with chocolate.

And banana and rice.

And pineapple on pizza.

And tomato and cheese.

And coconut jam.

And tomato sauce with chips.

And pancakes with beansprouts, and fish sauce.

All of which seem normal now, or if not normal, still tastes amazingly good. But seriously, whichever person first tried to combine those foods.... =_="

OH. And also. THE NAMES OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. SO STRANGE.

PAPAYA. paw paw. [??]
POMEGRANTE.
CUSTARD APPLE [not to be confused with apple custard]
GUAVA.
ZUCHINNI.

/rant on food over

DAY 7 OF STRAWBERRY-WITHDRAWAL

I'm doing lots of things to try and keep myself busy so I don't start missing strawberry again. Its not so bad... =] Just three and a bit more weeks left :]

having lunch/dinner with family

ADULT: Do you want any fish casserole?
YOU: Um.. no thanks ^^
ADULT: I spent all of today cooking it. It's delicious (:
YOU: I'm sure it is :D But I really don't feel.....
ADULT: *puts onto your plate*
YOU: ..Thanks.


ADULT: Are you still hungry?
YOU: Ah, no, I'm really full!
ADULT: WAH, you are so skinny >_> EAT MORE.
YOU: ............................no no I really don't wanna eat any.....
ADULT: *puts more fish casserole onto your plate*
YOU: Thanks..


ADULT: Do you want any ice cream?
YOU: Um no... I actually ate a lot..
ADULT: HA! YOU'RE FAULT FOR EATING SO MUCH? WHO TOLD YOU TO OVER EAT?
YOU: >_________> you..?

Well, my first day of holidays was also my first day of work - how exciting XD! At my dad's factory, that is. It is pretty facinating how all the ladies sewing and make each and every shirt seem so exactly like the next. Whereas I find it difficult to thread string through hoodies and keep both sides the same length. See the clear difference? HAHA :)

Anyways, I actually quite like working at dad's factory. I suppose its easier since the boss can't actually fire me since he is my dad. But it is great because my mind won't slack off and it still has a reason to function.

Today is DAY 3 of STRAWBERRY-WITHDRAWAL. I think I am holding together better than expected. I have no one to stalker-ish-ly stare at during class, but thats okay, because now I am actually seeking to talk to OTHER PEOPLE. *gasp* haha ><" The last three lunch-times seemed very different without being with strawberry, but I lived, and had a good time as well. His absense made me realise that I did not have a proper social life =_= so, now that he's gone for another month, hopefully I can catch up with my friends a bit more.

But I still miss him, anyways.

Well, the school year has ended and anyone would say that this year has slipped past us too quickly. Although, I think back to the beginning of the year.
I've met new people, I've lost contact with people. I've learnt new skills, and also forgotten a few along the way. So much has changed within a short period of time.
I don't feel like I'm ready to let go of what I am leaving behind with my year 9 experiences, but I feel ready to embrace the new opportunities that come with being a year 10.


OH WELL (:

Walking Into A Jewellery Store

Come on, we've all done it, so I'm sure we can all relate.

Today I was in the city with my family when we passed a jewellery shop. As the girl I am, I was drawn towards the window displays. Soon enough, everyone else was looking too. My father, of all people, was the first one to decide to enter the shop.

It seemed it wasnt just entering a shop - it was more of entering a whole new world. A world where the music always was the finest, a world where everyone spoke with proper language, a world where everyone and everything was amazingly sophisticated.

"Good afternoon, Miss. Are you looking for anything in particular?"

I am 14 year old in a store where the cheapest object is about $1000. DO YOU THINK I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING?

"Oh, nothing, I am just browsing."

I continue to walk on and stare admiringly at the perfect sets of jewels displayed in the glass cabinets. "It is so beautiful.." I whisper.

A voice replies from close by. "Why yes it is..." I look up, seeing a sales assistant explaining the finer details of this piece. [Isn't it obvious that I won't buy it?] I stared, nodded when appropriate and kept a strange strange eye contact.

But when my eyes shifted, I noticed something strange about him. What was it? It was perculiar... I kept wondering what it was. And then I saw it. A whole lot of hair growing out of his ear. And of course, now that I had noticed it, I couldn't stop looking at it.

Awkward.

vanilla twilight;; owl city

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly
But I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
'Cause I wish you were here

I'll watch the night turn light-blue
But it's not the same without you
Because it takes two to whisper quietly

The silence isn't so bad
'Til I look at my hands and feel sad
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly

I'll find repose in new ways
Though I haven't slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia
Chills me to the bone

But drenched in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch all night
Waist-deep in thought because
When I think of you I don't feel so alone

I don't feel so alone, I don't feel so alone

As many times as I blink
I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight

When violet eyes get brighter
And heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again

And I'll forget the world that I knew
But I swear I won't forget you
Oh, if my voice could reach
Back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear
Oh darling, I wish you were here

this week.,

So anyways I felt that I should blog about something.
*thinks*

OKAY so on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, we had transition camp. This is how it went...
- GAMES
- talk
- EAT
- GAMES
- listen
- BULLYING
- GAMES
- EAT
- TALK
- EAT
etc ._.

Orientation day is on the coming Monday, and I am so freaked out >_<" I need to get to school at like 7am for BAND because we need to perform for ....something... at ...somewhere... O_o Therefore, I will be late for orientation day, thus leaving Sheridan with the kidlings for a while >_<" Luckily, she is going to join up with Jia Wen and Ashley's group so that they can help her :D


Last weekend, I tried to decorate two shirts. So stressful, but I did it. YAY XD I reckon they are pretty bad quality, but for a first shot, its alright ._. maybe..??

There are only two more weeks until the end of the school year :O SO WEIRD, that this year has zipped past so quickly. I don't know whether or not I should be happy or upset by this, although I do know that I have really grown a lot [only on the inside, obviously] this year =] It is really sad to see people leave for holidays earlier or even to not return to the school next year ;_; but of course we wish them well and stuff XD


BYEBYE JIA YI ;_______; see you next year
