Pre-Trials Rage Session

Before I die due to brain-overload and stress, I would like to thank a couple of people for making this possible (y).

I would first like to thank Hurstville Council for rejecting our house reconstruction plans. It's not even half done yet and there's bricks everywhere. When it rains, it's so muddy I can't get out of the make-shift shack I call my temporary house. I would also like to thank the JMG architect guy for being SO RESPONSIBLE and for saying "Ah, I don't really know what I can do about it". Gee thanks, that was so helpful. How did yo

u become an architect again?

I would also like to thank the weather for being so supportive to me. Sydney totally needs the rain right now because our plants are all dying of thirst. Just a casual suggestion though, maybe go for a spin in Dubbo instead?

Last of all, I would like to thank my next door neighbours for being such good NEIGHBOURS. You know what they say about neighbours right?

Neighbours, should be there for one another! That's when good neighbours, become...good friends~

Well no wonder we're not good friends >:( !!!!

I seriously thought that show was far-fetched with all that drama and back-stabbing but HEY, they totally should make a TV series about us! I'm sure Australians for generations to come would love watching the way we treat each other. The stuff you guys come up with are award-winning material. Honestly.

SIGH. Alright. I know I'm being a sourpuss today, complaining about all these little things...but I've sort of been trying to ignore those things for a while.

I mean, as a wise green ogre once said..."Better out than in".

I love Shrek.

But honestly...I'm just so angry with everything for no particular reason. I think it's all the pressure and stress that's been building because of these things.

I feel like I can really relate to the bear in this picture. It's as if the bear and I...are one.

Simba, YOU MUST TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE CIRCLE OF LIFE!

Oh what big teeth you have.

Yea..scary. Poor kid.

Drenched and Sad

The morning start off with a bang for me. It was pleasant and sweet and it gave me a chance to think about my preferences and obligations. It was a little chilly, but maybe that's just because I didn't sleep well last night.
Today was a good day and a lot of good stuff happened. But it was sad, also. For about twenty minutes, I stood under the rain, staring out onto the road, unaware that my hair and clothes were getting drenched. I thought maybe, like those Shakespearean plays, the rain can wash away my woes. But no such luck.
It's quite depressing to think that there's really a lot wrong with my life. I try not to think about them of course and concentrate on those who are dear to me. Maybe it's about time I talk about these things instead of just venting it out at Mister Pillow. I think my mum thinks I'm mentally unstable D: because I'm always screaming into it. Ah wells.

After getting drenched in the rain, I went to Nandos to buy food. The lady there wasn't very nice. I was cold and my hair was wet and untidy and I felt a little sick, but she kept writing down the wrong order. I don't know, maybe I wasn't giving the orders correctly?

But Colin and stuff were there eating nandos too...it took me a while to realise it was him since my eyes were still blurry from earlier and I think there's something wrong with my brain because it works extra slow these days. What an embarrassment T_T

But whatever.

Rant Rant Rant.

Vent Vent Vent.

*Breathes*

The rest of the day progressed pleasantly and it took my mind off for a while. I met up with Matt and we talked a bit and then caught the bus home. Might I add it was raining when I was walking home too? *dies*

But yeah...I drenched and sad that I'm drenched :(

Sad Sad Sad.

Complain. Complain. Complain.

Groan. Groan. Groan.

I'm all good :D

A Slightly Early 18th Bday Celebration

Trials are coming up and most unfortunately, it falls on my 18th birthday =( It's so sad how I can't do anything about it because I gotta study. I might celebrate it a little after :(

But some relatives and family friends have already sent me their greetings and gifts :D Thank you so much.

Oh a special thanks goes out to my cousin especially who came to Hurstville on Friday to give me...a jar of Sticky (see above) o__o Thanks! I know you have a date with your girlfriend and everything but I still appreciate you ditching her for 10minutes to give it to me >:D

Anyways...to mark the occasion, I'm gonna post the pictures I took...of the gifts that is LOL x.x

It's so touching so I want to remember this :D You

only get ONE 18th bday...even if its not until August :D

This one is from another cousin. Actually we were looking at it on ebay and it was selling for cheap but I was broke so I couldn't buy one. But he bought it for me :D I promise I'll never tell Aunty about you playing dota ever again.

That's from my aunty and uncle :D In addition to that they gave me $50 so I can spend it however I want. But I spent it on a Math revision book already...

Anna Sui earrings >:D My favourite brand.

Servant of Evil

Servant of Evil
You're my princess and I'm your servant,We're star-crossed twins that destiny's forsakenIf it's for the sake of protecting you,Then I'll willingly turn evil.
Born into a family of high expectations,We were blessed with ringing church bells,But the selfishness of the adultsForced our futures apart.
Even if the whole world turns its back on you,Even if they become your enemy,I will protect youSo you just keep smiling.
You're my princess and I'm your servant,We're star-crossed twins that destiny's forsakenIf it's for the sake of protecting you,Then I'll willingly turn evil.
When I went to the neighboring kingdom,I caught sight of a girl of green.Her kind face and warm smileMade me fall in love.
But if my princess wants her to disappear,For you I will erase her.But please answer me this,Why aren't my tears stopping?
You're my princess and I'm your servantWe're star-crossed twins that destiny's forsaken"Today's snack is brioche" I sayAnd you laughed in such an innocent way
Not far from now, this country will fallTorn down by it's angry, avenging citizens.Even if we did do things to deserve this,I will fight them, for you.
"Here, change into my clothes" I say"Please do it quickly and run away!""Don't worry, we're twins""So they won't notice a thing"
Now I'm the princess and you're the fugitiveWe're star-crossed twins that destiny's forsaken.Even if they say you're evil,I have the same blood flowing through my veins anyway.
Once upon a time, a long time ago There was an unsettling and corrupted kingdomAnd ruling it was my cute little sister
Even if the whole world turns their back on youEven if they become your enemy,I will protect youSo you just keep smiling.
You're my princess and I'm your servant,We're star-crossed twins that destiny's forsakenIf it's for the sake of protecting you,Then I'll willingly turn evil.

But if I am to be reborn,

Please let me be born beside you again.

Note: This is a VOCALOID song originally sung by Ren Kagamine (the Vocaloid). He has a twin sister called Rin and this is a song about their previous life. I rearranged the lyrics a little to make it sound more logical but the youtube video I embedded has the direct-lyrics. Oh yeah, and this is a cover by Yamai, not the original.
The Full StoryA long time ago, in their previous lives, Ren and Rin were twins born into a prestigious family. They loved each other. But they were separated by the adults when they were very young and Rin was taken away. She became the princess of the kingdom and turned spoilt, corrupted and did evil things. But Ren, who loved his twin sister, disregarded all that and promised to always protect her, no matter what she did, even if it means he has to do evil things.One day, Ren travelled to a neighboring kingdom and he met the Green Princess (Hatsune Miku). He was moved by her kind-heart and fell in love with her. But she was engaged to the prince of the Blue Kingdom (Kaito). Rin (who loved already loved Kaito) became angry that even her brother fell in love with the girl and ordered him to kill her. Although Rin loved the Green Princess, he loved his sister more and obeyed, even though he was distraught over it. He broke down and felt awful but the time he spent with his sister kept him going. Meanwhile, the citizens and all the neighboring kingdoms were stirring and planned to overthrow the wicked Rin. As they attacked the castle, Ren passed his clothes to Rin and told her to swap clothes with him, telling her to pretend to be him and escape while he lures them away in her clothes.Despite Rin's protests, Ren forced her away, telling her he'll protect her. Then, eventually, he was caught and brought to the gallows while Rin hid in the crowds. Without looking at Rin, Ren smiled and was glad that his beloved sister was safe, hoping that if he was to be born again, it would be once again by her side.
Note: Isn't that the saddest and cutest story ever?! There's different version of the same story from the different characters. The story continues with the song: REGRET MESSAGE about how after Rin escapes, she realises her sins and wishes to be born beside her brother again. This time, she'll live her life differently. And they do :D

This song is from Rin after she escapes from the kingdom. She reflects upon her childhood days with her brother and how he was always there for her, protecting her. She realises her selfishness and her wrongs but it's too late. She remembers something she did together with Ren and how he said sending wishes out into the ocean in glass bottles will help the wish come true. Thus, she visits the ocean and wishes for another chance with her brother.The story ends with the twins in modern times, suggesting that their wish indeed became reality.
Note: But Servant of Evil is the best because it's so cute! The other ones include:Daughter of Evil - From Rin's perspective...and WOW is it evil LOLDaughter of Green - From Miku (Green Princess)'s perspective.Prince of EvilPrince of Blue etc etc xD
Watch both videos correspondingly AGAIN for tear-jerking effect x___x

You Raise Me Up

You Raise Me Up

Westlife

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;

When troubles come and my heart burdened be...

Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,

Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;

You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;

You raise me up...To more than I can be

I'm really feeling this song right now so I added it to the pink ipod playlist thing x] They used this song in the Prince Jeremy scene in the kdrama You're Beautiful.

I'm going blind...

It's been a while since I've blogged properly...maybe it's because of all the school work and stress at home. But my mum's been helping me out a lot! She paid half of my phone bill yesterday :) $80 to go!! It sucks since I don't even use the 1GB internet (I lost my iphone remember?).

Oh yeah, another thing...

I don't know if it's because of all the work I'm doing late at night or because of all the 'reading in the dark' thing...but my eyesight is seriously degrading...everything looks so blurry now. My mum told me it's because I'm using it too much but I don't know. I'm scared I'm gonna go blind or something. Maybe it's the stress thing again...

Life at home is really the best...I can sleep in without having to worry about facing the office lady for a late note and I don't have to walk through the cold mud around my house T_T

The construction hasn't really progressed much since I last blogged about it. My dogs are cooped up in a small area and I really feel sorry for them. The smell of mud and dust makes me sick and all the dirt outside makes me not want to go outside.

So far, I've had one allergic reaction but thankfully it wasn't extreme. My mum told me to wear a mask or something but I don't think it'll help much. Ahhhh life...I seriously can't wait until this is all over!
