Ode to DBSK ^^

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:41:22 GMT

Okay, avert your eyes. The lamest post of the week is going to be situated here. But I wanted to do it anyway - so shoot me! XD

You're not here to say what you always used to say,
But it's written in the sky tonight...

It doesn't matter what people say,
And it doesn't matter how long it takes...

I won't give up. No, I won't break down.
Sooner than it seems life turns around.
And I will be strong, even if it all goes wrong.
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe...

WOW so I randomly just came across this article today. It was so interesting (and funny XD). SO Yunho definitely isn't alone with his moobie sufferers....... XD

PHASES OF THE MOOB!!! - From flat to floppy ... the four phases of the moob

The internet is WAY too fun!! it is a dangerous place for me to be left loose in! XDDDD

I've been playing around with a morph site I found on facebook after my aunt tried to morph her face into Sex and the City's Samantha. XD

Well, I decided to morph with Yunho. My ideology behind it as reported on facebook is: WILL JAEJOONG MARRY ME IF I LOOK LIKE YUNHO?!!! XDDDDD

*dying from laughter* Wow Yunho as half-Australian...interesting visual. Yun looks pretty with my fringe and curls. XD

DUST STORM ALERT~

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 01:32:03 GMT

GREETINGS, FROM SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA!
THE CURRENT VICTIMS OF AN EPIC DUST STORM!

Just this morning the area has gone from an eerie crimson red, to a freaky orange glow, to a white fog...

Turns out, gale force winds stirred up dust from the desert areas in the middle of the country and brought them through Canberra and Sydney this morning. It is such a mess! Even though all of the windows in my house were closed firmly over the night every room smells like someone has thrown chalk dust everywhere and my eyes haven't been able to stop stinging. My dad is now housebound, being a terrible asthma sufferer. He couldn't go to work today because despite all the windows of the house being sealed his lungs are already hurting him. Several asthma sufferers have already been hospitalised. ><

Airplanes have been diverted from Sydney airport, the ferry service has been cancelled, highway tunnels have been closed... No one knows what's gonna happen to all the dust (although it should be clearing by late afternoon?) and the winds are only gonna get stronger. Eek! What a day this will be...

This isn't my bedroom (I had no batteries left for the camera T_T) but this is exxxactly what I woke up to this morning at 7am. I only had 5 hours sleep and was wondering why the hell I had woken up so early until the eerie orange glow pierced through my blinds. My blinds cover the whole wall and my bed is an inch from it, so naturally it scared to crap outta me that my room was glowing ORANGE!!

I looked out the window and there was this creeeeepy orange mist everywhere. Looking down my street the visibility was so low I couldn't make out the trees at the end of it.

Right now at 11am outside just looks like a strong white mist:

But when I woke up 7am it was orange:

And before that when the sun hadn't risen yet it was CRIMSON RED!! It's looks so scarily apocalypic. ><

Talk about a wake-up call! "Good morning, Fiona, and welcome to the end of the world!" XD

Music randomness...

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:46:06 GMT

WESTERN RANDOMNESS: Hmm, so it turns out that the Fleetwood Mac concert tickets are over $200 for the cheaper seat section... Friggen hell, even Kylie Minogue's best seats were cheaper and she had a million dancers and fancy sets! But hey, it's Fleetwood Mac so I'm hardly gonna back out now. December won't come quick enough~ ><

ASIAN RANDOMNESS: And speaking of music, damn am I obsesssssed already with "Shelter"!! JaeJoong's compositions are so unique... Every new composition he throws out I start to love more and more. I think "9095" was the epitome of strangeness, so 'Shelter' is definitely tamer but it still has that unique JaeJoong quality about it, eh! The way the lyrics are sung remind me of something from my past actually.. I can't think what though! A few western bands from like the late 90s perhaps... A bit of Britney Spears' early style, and a bit of Scandal'us.... how embarrassing. I need to stop that association right now!!! I'M SO SORRY JAE AND CHUN!!! XD

J-ROCK RANDOMNESS: I've totally fallen into a massive J-rock mood lately! I've been revisiting all the old albums that I was obessed with in highschool! We're talking stuff from L'Arc~en~Ciel, Gackt, Dir en Grey, Panic Channel, Miyavi, Kagrra, GLAY, hide, Gazette, An Cafe, ettttc etc etc etc.... OH and like alllllllll the anime songs I used to love! My laptop has been invaded by J-rockers again, haha!

And don't get me started on the old PVs!! I died laughed all over again at Jiro trying to defend himself with a ....SLING-SHOT.... against an evil monster who had just cut someone in half in the SHITTO PV?!!:

And LMAO the freaky giraffe-mask stalker man peeping through the window in Miyavi's KIMI NI NEGAI WO PV. That random giraffe dude used to give me and Tal endless laughter:

Who can forget Hyde's retarded body movements in the STAY AWAY PV! I refrain form using the verb 'dancing' for extremely obvious reasons if you have indeed seen that particular PV XD. (Still, it wasn't as epic as when Hyde looked out the window in DIVE TO BLUE PV to see a guy falling past his window to commit suicide, but then turned back unfazed to water his plants. XD

Ohhh Ohhh! You can't ever forget Exile's asian gangsta dancers pointlessly surrounding Hisashi whilst he tries to likewise look badass with his guitar playing in the SCREAM PV! Guitar playing + hiphop dancing = no.

How about the An Cafe boys trying to lure Miku out of his emo slump by giving him PORN in the ESCAPISM PV! Not sure Dr Phil approves there, guys...

Oh lordy, what about Gackt spying on a wedding ceremony through an old guy's ear during the ARRITAKE NO AI DE PV! WOW Gackt... You sex bomb, you...

Godddd, those J-ROCK PVs were just so brilliantly stupid!!! How I missed them... XD

Anthony, why so OSM?!! <3

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:40:46 GMT

And an effing star is born, ladies and gentlemen!!

Anthony Capon, why are you so awesome? Seriously! From day one you have demanded my attention and captivated my imagination. You and your watering can are gonna go so far in the fashion world, boy. You are a truly unique star in the Australian fashion industry. <3

So the final episode of Project Runway Australia (Season 2) aired yesterday...and boy was I nervous watching it!

As evidence by my reaction on MSN when I first viewed his final collection on the runway: "Jesssssus Christ, Anthony is just...... Holy crap, man, how does he do it?!!"

I mean, I am so not fashionable (hello, my bro is more fashionable than I am for godsake!) and I am really fussy with avant-guarde stuff because my artistic eye is somewhat lacking when it comes to garments. Yet, somehow 90% of the time I always find myself blown away by his work. He really has been consistantly amazing with his designs. He was never even in the bottom throughout the whole season!!

Just last weekend I was telling my bro how Anthony's works in particular have really opened up my interest in fashion. Recently, every time I walked past a mannequin in the shop windows my heart would start to beat a little faster in excitment coz I was genuinly interested in seeing the fashion... Honestly, Anthony really did help me open up my eyes to the joys that fashion can bring. So, I hope he ignores all the over-the-top criticism he's been copping in the official PR-AUST forums, because he single-handedly did the impossible and turned me into a fashion-conscious young lady with his creativity. No one has been able to do that to me... Hell, I still wear daggy t-shirts that I bought over 7 years ago! Now I actually wanna go to the store and find some amazing outfits! O_O

I really admire his attitude as well. He doesn't take crap from anybody. He doesn't let anyone's comments effect his artistic vision. He isn't afraid to walk down a street of conforming nobodies and shout: I AM FABULOUS with his unique outfits. As someone who struggles daily with social phobia, he really touched me both visually and emotionally. It may sound a little stupid to say this, but I really do look up to him. I want to be the type of person who doesn't give a flying eff what people think of them, but it's hard, and it's something I have struggled with for as long as I can remember. I can't even walk down my university pathway without avoiding making eyecontact with people in case I can see judgment reflected in their eyes... So to see Anthony have so much emotional freedom and the ability to express himself with so much confidence is just so...beautiful and inspirational. I want to be like him. As I keep trying to get over my deeply encrusted social phobia I will think of Anthony and keep pushing myself forward. ^^

"For me, I went onto the show to show my aesthetic and do what I love, not to win people over.
I understand my work is not everyone’s taste; I don’t want it to be. I know I have a niche market and that is whom I will be aiming my label at. I know many people in Berlin and Japan and across Europe would love my work. I don’t want to dress everyone, because I want people to be individual and to be able to express themselves without giving a s*#t what people think."

SO it's time to face the music peoples:

ANTHONY CAPON PUTS THE 'FREAK' IN "FREAKIN' FAB-U-LOUS!" SO.....

awful day...

Tue, 08 Sep 2009 05:52:05 GMT

WIll have to wait until tonight until I update my fic....

I've had the worst day, the worst part of it ending in the spilt kimchi all over the korean grocery store's floor and bitchy glares because of it, and now I am speechless at what happened to Jaebum because of the 2pm scandal...

Guess what Korean netizens, YOU REALLY ARE "GAY" NOW!!! YOU JUST PROVED JAEBUM RIGHT! It is the ridiculous reasons like that which makes us have the RIGHT to call you "GAY" like jaebum did!!! I mean hellllo, writing a 'jaebum should commit suicide' petition? VERY MATURE OF YOU!!! CONGRATS!

Fucking wankers.

Project Runway Aust - Anthony <3

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 02:38:22 GMT

Damn my bro! He's totally got me hooked on Project Runway Australia. I am totally rooting for Anthony Capon. And not because he's a fabbbbulous gay-sian, but because his designs are just so friggen amazing! Gosh, what's not to love about him! I am thrilled that he's made it into the top 3! :D

"When people see me on the street they often look at me up and down and judge and laugh, and I just shake my head in shame at them because I'm like: 'honey, you look hideous but I'm wearing a fabulous man-skirt.'"

"She said it was like Sarah Jessica Parker... No. It was for a homeless person...to EAT!"

Anthony: What is that you're using?
Yopie: Artichoke
Anthony: What?
Yopie: ARTICHOKE!
Anthony: I'll choke YOU in a minute, bitch, if you speak like that to me again. ^____~
Yopie: XD

Leeteuk: All of you are really free nowadays, is it?

Hannie, you are so precious. XDDD

He's Simply The Best~

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 06:43:37 GMT

*sigh*

This afternoon I arrived home and there on my doorstep was the package I knew contained AADBSK3. I haven't opened the package yet though... I can't today. I can't even think about DBSK today, or anything in my normal routine that normally makes me happy. I don't want to be sidetracked. Today, all I want to do is remember Neale.

The funeral was emotional. People's voices cracking in their eulogies... The flowers being put over Neale's coffin as his wedding song was played... His three sons carrying his coffin down the aisle and through the guard of honour that his students made leading to the hearse...

But I am comforted knowing that Neale has already left a sign for his loved ones to know he is alright. His best friend and wife were driving somewhere the day after Neale's death and his wife was distraught that Neale still hadn't left her any sign to tell her that he was okay. As soon as she asked out loud where her sign was her mobile phone rang and listed on the screen was "NEALE". She answered but no one was on the other line. They had presumed that maybe someone was trying to ring them from home using his old mobile. But then they looked in the back seat of the car and discovered his phone was actually in an untouched, zipped bag on the back seat... Wow.

Not to mention in the actual funeral when his brother (or was it another friend? ><) commented in his eulogy that when there is thunder he will know it is Neale dancing in the heavens, and when there is wind blowing he will known that Neale is trying to tell him something. And then holy hell, at that very moment there was the BIGGEST gush of wind that lifted everyone's skirts up for a little while and then died down again for the remainder of the ceremony. Pretty awesome timing, if I do say so myself. *_*

But Neale, I hope you really were there today to see how many people you touched. 500 people plus the bishop is a pretty darn good turn out for a 47 year-old! And I hope you heard what I had to say to you because I really want you to know how much I appreciated your guardian angel-like interaction with me when you were still on this earth.

And yes, Neale. Just like the song you chose (how very predictably tongue-in-cheek of you!) to be played in your funeral, you really are "simply the best; better than all the rest." <3

Farewell, Mr N...

Wed, 19 Aug 2009 07:11:35 GMT

RIP, dear Neale.

I really didn't want to have to write about this. I knew I would have to at one stage, but I didn't want to think about it. I wanted to keep thinking that things would be okay and that you'd somehow get better.

But now you're no longer in this world with us and I can only pray that you are no longer suffering with your cancer, and that the family who are left behind will be able to heal in time and not get into financial debt. May your little boys grow up being proud of you...

Mr N, I never got to thank you for all the times you looked out for me. I wasn't even in your class and still you'd look for me on the playground to see if I was interacting okay with the other kids despite my shyness.

If there was one moment that made an impact on my life it would have been the time at year 6 retreat when you pretended to strangle me because you found out I was an accomplice in the 'trashing of your cabin room' incident. It was one of the funniest moments of my life. You were such a prankster!

I still remember that night clearly... I had to leave the horrid ballgames early because I had forgotten to take my medication for my ear infection. On the way to get aforementioned medication with my teacher we bumped into some boys peering into a cabin room. They told us that you had told them to leave the ballgames to check out the cabin and when they opened the door they found that you had playfully strung rolls-worth of toilet paper all over their bunk beds. It looked liked a giant spider web!

So my teacher decided to get revenge on you for fun. Her and Mrs F. and I went into your room, flung toilet paper all over your bed and stuffed pieces under your blanket, inside your pillow case and throughout your bag. Then my teacher got out her moisturising cream and spread it all over your doorknob so that as soon as you went to open your cabin door your hands would get covered in slime. All of us were giggling like mischievous kids, the two female teachers and I.

I felt so included that night. I was the only student who was able to join forces with the female teachers to actually trash your cabin room for fun. Perhaps that is why it has left such an impact on me.

And then, I remember the next morning you came up to me and pretended to strangle me coz you found out I had helped the teachers stuff your room with toilet paper. You were so hilarious. I'm just so fortunate that my friend was able to snap the photo in time so that it is a memory I'll always be able to cherish.

Whenever I look at the photo I smile and think of you. It broke my heart when I found out you had cancer. You got over the first lot, but it seems that in the end the second lot appearing in your lungs was too much for you to handle.

I'm truly glad to have known you, Mr N. I will miss you. Please be at peace, finally.

Internet shopping = clearly not my thing...

Sun, 09 Aug 2009 09:35:19 GMT

*sigh*

Now this is just freaky and not funny anymore at all. Every time I try to order something important to me online the website will always go crazy. I kid you not! Let us recall:

1. The day I wanted to get McFly tickets for the second concert as a last minute decision... the metro theatre website was down.

2. The day I wanted to order the Linden Method packed.. the Australian ordering site was down for most of the night.

3. The day I want to finally preorder AADBSK3.... and yesasia site is really slow to move and barely registering anything properly... I WANT MY FRIGGEN DBSK DVDs, THROW ME A BONE, YESASIA!!!!! lol

Seriously, wtf is it! The last three times I ordered something from the net and the sites go crazy??? What the hell is up with that? It's just so creepy and frustrating as hell... -_-;;

EDIT: No really.... This isn't funny yesasia. Proceeding to checkout isn't rocket science. wtf are you doing you friggen irritating website!

SM... in the words of lily allen: fk you, fk you very very much.

Mon, 03 Aug 2009 22:01:59 GMT

Okay, so I've been quiet on the whole matter with DBSK's lawsuit apart from chatting about it on MSN with various LJers. But I just cannot hold back anymore.

I have one thing to say:
“On SM’s side, we still have much love for Dong Bang Shin Gi. We do not want them to disband,” said an SM Entertainment representative.

FUCKKKKKKKKKKK. YOUUUUUUUUUUU. ALLLLLLLLLLLLL.

Seriously. Of course you love DBSK; they give you jobs and money. If you really loved and respected them then you'd listen to what they had to say about being fucking exhausted and fucking do something about it before they have a breakdown!!!!

Fuck, I am pissed off. I think I need a panadol...

At least your stock is plummeting you evil exploitists: http://community.livejournal.com/omonatheydidnt/1217465.html#cutid1

Timetabling woeee!

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 09:31:25 GMT

Gahh this suckkks! My two best mates in Jap class have to go to the tutorial on Wed this semester.... But I booked myself into the Thursday tute because if I do the wed tute I'll have 4 hours in a row of class (2 hours of jap + 2 hours of manga culture class)... And with my concentration issues and sensitive stomach that needs constant feeding in small doses it would suck to do four hours in a row of class...

But I wanna be with my jap mates! It's part of the reason why I haven't given Jap class up yet! I mean, my other two jap friends might be in the thurs tute but I'm not 100% sure of that.. And the last thing I need is having no friends in my tute but instead be stuck with smartypants Asian-background classmates with awesome pronounciation and kanji-writing skills. T____T

So basically, either I have no friends in jap tute and 3 days of uni, or I have 4 hours in a row of hard class but only 2 days at uni.... fuck fuckity fuck I am between a rock and a hard place!!! I dunno whether to switch to wed tutorial or not. Greaaaat. T_T

EDIT: Well the wed class is full according to my uni site which means I can't change at this point in time and could be totally f**ked over and lose contact with my Jap girls. Friggen helllll my week is going downhill fast! I know it sounds stupid, I really could cry over this! Those girls were the reason I didn't completely start hating Japanese class, and I dunno how I'd be able to enjoy tutorials without them... T_T
Friggen 全然残念よ！！！

Oh SM you 'tards!

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 15:23:48 GMT

Okay so it's 1am right now and clearly I have better things I could be doing than fiddling around in my LJ (sleep, for example, is something I should actually be experiencing -__-). But since I've been in a crappy mood for no real reason the past few days I figured that there is no harm in cementing that fact by bitching in here. I'm a woman, let me be! XD

Let me get this off my chest before I sleep.

SM IS RETARDED!!! (yeh, that's stating the obvious, huh!)

I mean, if you were so paranoid about people seeing JaeJoong's giant back tattoo and getting the wrong impression of him (ie. only people in the yakuza have tattoos) then why plan to put friggen shitloads of DBSK topless pics in their latest photobook in the first place?!!!!!

If I see Jae topless, I wanna see the REAL Jae. Back tattoo and all! Not SM's recreation of JaeJoong... WE'RE NOT STUPID SM! WE DO KNOW JAE HAS A HUGE TATTOO ON HIS BACK!!!

It's so petty.... I mean, sure, being paranoid over people actually using their brains and figuring out YunJae's existance and therefore elimnating any pictures that encourages even the most inattentive person to get suspicious of YunJae, is fine. HOWEVER, making a famous tattoo disappear from Jae's back is just something else entirely. Sheesh. You can try hiding the Yunjae, but for godssake don't try hiding the tattoo... Pffft.

But by all means, if I have been living in a cardboard box lately and Jae has actually MIRACULOUSLY gotten tattoo-removal surgery (despite the time and effort that went into him adding extra features onto his precious tattoo in recent times), then shoot me or give me a sedative and we'll call it a day! XD

~~Gahhh I need to stop feeling so cranky over minor things this week... I refuse to become like my aunt! ><~~

Emetophobia huh? Errrghhh

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 11:59:27 GMT

EMETOPHOBIA!!!!

(Emetophobia is an intense, irrational fear or anxiety pertaining to vomiting. This specific phobia can also include subcategories of what causes the anxiety, including a fear of vomiting in public, a fear of seeing vomit, a fear of watching the action of vomiting or fear of being nauseated.)

So that's the technical name of the main thing causing me shit in my life? Now to make it go away.... Had roughly 3 panic attacks over it driving around for over an hour with my friends yesterday.... for fucks sake just leave me along you ridiculous irrational fear! -_-

Goooood books = <3

Sun, 05 Jul 2009 03:14:27 GMT

Don't you just love it when you can burrow under the covers of your bed with a book you know you love and just spend the rest of the night reading away despite the time? Especially in winter when it's freezing and there is no better sanctuary than under your covers with the electric blanket happily thrumming.

I have two books I need to read that my friends have lent me, but last night I was really craving reading a book that is sort of 'feel good'. I ended up dying to read one of ultimate fav books:

I ended up reading 190 pages in one go until it was 2am lol. This book never gets old...... It never fails to get me so emotional... If I ever ge to be a writer, I honestly want to write stories like Melina Marchetta. They are so simple and yet so powerful and emotional that you can reread them over and over again and feel the same amount of love for it as you felt when you first read it years ago.......

I mean, gosh, for the whole story Mia, the mother, is depressed and suffering in her bed... You don't really know what the old Mia was like - all you have are memories from Francesca, the daughter. And yet, you grow to love Mia so much!! When she makes the slightest progress with her depression - like actually managing to eat a tiny bit of food, you can't help but burst into tears because you are so hopeful that Mia will be able to continue slowly getting better! I mean, holy crap!!! We readers have never met the old Mia, and yet we can be affected so much by the depressed Mia making small progress? I realllllllllly want to be able to affect readers like that in my stories....

My god, this quote about Francesca dealing with her mum's depression always gets me instantly choked up: 'I do the deals-with-God thing. Make her better...make us all better and I'll change the world for you. But God doesn't talk to me. It's because every night I lie here with music in my ears and i say my prayers and fall asleep in the middle of them. He only talks to people like Mia. People he thinks are worth it. Because they have passion. They have something. I have nothing... I'm a waste of space......'

I guess I chose to read this book last night above all the other books I love because I can sort of relate to the mother... I mean, I don't have acute depression like she does, but the anxiety disorders I have right now are just as confounding and I've certainly had days when I was too scared to leave my bed. I love that the message throughout the book is that there is no easy answer to the Mia's depression... There is no one sole cause of it, or one sole answer to curing it. It takes time...and that's exactly what I am facing right now with my anxiety disorders.... When Mia makes slight progress with her depression, it gives me hope that the small progressions I make with my disorder will also get me closer and closer to complete recovery. ^^

Besides, Mia is not the only reason why I love the story.... It's really amazing how Francesca slowly learns (despite her typical teenage attitude getting in the way) that your true friends are the ones that are there for you in the bad times... You might not even realise that they are your true friends until something like that happens, but you sure learn quickly that they are your real friends. It's really beautiful to see how those four girls (and 3 guys) slowly build a huge bond together without even realising it! Such beautiful friendship!!

And of course, the unbelievably strong bond between Francesca and her lil bro Luca is so touching! And I relate to it so much because I am exactly the same way with my older bro. What was my fav quote from the book about them? 'I can't tell horror brother and sister stories about Luca and me. We're crazy about each other and our arguments are limited to who gets control over the TV remote between 7:00pm and 7:30.' Yeppp absolutely the same between me and my bro. Only it generally fighting over internet time and I'm usually the one being the most forceful in arguments LOL!

PLUSSSSS one of the girls, Tara, is such an opinionated person in regards to social justice issues. And why hello, so am I! Yet another thing I commmmpletely relate to in this book! <3

Gah, I could gush on about this book until the cows come home so I better leave it there and actually finish it.. It's currently sitting beside me begging for me to finish it. But I don't want to finish it because I don't want it to end even though I've read it thousands of times..... *sigh* The joys of a great book, I tell ya! lol

Mollie Sugden

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 12:28:37 GMT

Just saw on the ad for the Late News that Mollie Sugden has passed away......

I know she's lived a great life, but I'll probably always feel a little sad now whenever I rewatch episodes of Are You Being Served and hear her Pussy jokes... T_T

Rest in peace, Mollie! <3

But as we were waiting for the lifts I wanted to stay and watch the TV in the foyer coz MyungSoo and MC Yoo Jaesuk were being silly on the screen... *sigh* And then we got sidetracked in the lift talking so it took us a moment to realise that neither of us had clicked the 'down' button so the lift was just sitting there HAHAHAAH. Our bad~~ XD

Anyways, then we bought pokey and instant ramyeon at the korean mart next door, before discussing Gee dance moves on the train ride home. Oh, and I got Talyssa to ring her boyfriend so I could hear his voice and talk to him heheheh. Good times!

NO NOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NO NO NOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NO NO NOO

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NO NO NO NO!!!

JUST NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MJ dead?!!! NO WAYY!!! I'm still in shock........ God, the day I slept in till midday, and decided to not go on the net for breakfast like normal, but instead watch Mighty Boosh whilst typing the nexr chapter of my fic up, is the day everyone hears that MJ died except me. I heard when my bro randomly called me from his lunch break for a chat and happened to mention it sucked that MJ died. I was like screaming "WHATTT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" fifty times into the phone lol. Oh, and then he tells me that poor Farrah Fawcett died from cancer as well.... I knew she was in a rough patch and things were looking extremtly bleak, and that she had already read out the last rites, but it's too sad to take in!

So right now I'm just in major shock from Michael Jackson AND Farrah Fawcett's death. And last night I was in shock about something else (as moon1084 knows very well) so it feels like this whole week is just one shock after another! @____@

Hellllo holidayssss! >D

Okay, so today I went to the usual website that gives you transport information for buses, trains and ferries to look up a bus timetable I needed, and low and behold I saw a face that I recognised on the screen.

JAY CHOU.

...

Yes, I knew he was coming to Sydney, my bro already had tickets to his concert, but you've gotta understand, Asian bands who give concerts in Australia really aren't promoted because the general Australian public don't know Asian bands. The only place you see promotion for Asian bands is in China Town. Not even RAIN was promoted anywhere but in China Town. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw the most popular travel website had details for getting to Jay Chou hahahahaha.

Motivation, where for art thou? T_T

Okay, here is the lowdown dear journal,

My 1st semester Japanese exam is tomorrow. Did I study much today? HELL to the NO! But it wasn't deliberate....well not really, anyway.
It's like I put so much friggen effort into studying all week that my brain has developed an intolerance to anymore study. Take yesterday for example, I spent every spare minute memorising kanji! But it's decircuited my brain! The thought of even lifting up my jap text book makes me feel awful - like my brain is now illergic to it!

So I figure that a bit of revision in the morning of the exam is gonna have to suffice. Because I just CANNOT find any part of my brain willing to take anymore information. And the only reason why I'm ranting about it here is because I'm the type to total go ballistic if I don't study every spare minute for an exam.... Oh the perfectionist guilt I am feeling! T____T

So instead of studying, I spent my whole day today reformatting my laptop ~~YESSS it's mine now! My bro gave it to meee! :D.~~ Everything is goooonnnnne from the harddrive! Including that asshole virus! GOOD RIDDANCE I SAY! But it means I have to install all the programs and drivers from scratch... Which means I have been given an excellent procrastination tool. XD

SOOOOOOOOOO in celebration I've decorated the laptop with a nice Yunjae wallpaper, muahahh!

Andddd I've been working on a Vince Noir mood theme! It's so perfecccct, Noel Fielding has the funniest expressions. XDDD

Now, in honour of my total Mighty Boosh obsession right now, I shall end this post with dancing Naboo! :D
Go Naboo, go! Use that inner shamen groove! XD

Life is too precious...

Just found out that a girl I once knew committed suicide on the weekend. She left my highschool in year 8 or so, so I haven't seen her since, but she used to be in my classes and I do remember her!

I'm always so sensitive to suicide...more than any other type of death. I can't handle it... I know that people with inner demons invisible to the human eye feel they have to do it and perhaps even feel they are a burden on people, but even still I always get so angry when I hear of suicides. It sounds awful but I just feel people who commit suicide are so damn selfish!

Especially since I know someone who is dying from cancer at the moment. He has children and the doctors said he only had 3 weeks left to live. He's still battling on though, but it seems inevitable that unless a miracle happens he will die.

So... it's like, one person I know didn't want to live their life, whilst the other person I know wants to hold on to life but is having it ripped away from them without consent. Where is the justice in all of it? Why must two lives be lost now? It's just.....too sad.

I vow this here for my friends and family to see: No matter what life throws at me, I will never commit suicide! Not ever!

Regardless though, wherever that girl now is, I hope she is at peace and that her family can slowly heal. It's really sad to see all the RIP messages on her facebook where there are so many photos of her looking HAPPY with life. But I guess that's quite a common deception with suicidal people...T___T

FREAKIEST DAY WHILST THE SUN SHINES?!!!

Thu, 28 May 2009 02:28:22 GMT

Okay so I figured that everything that has happened to be before NOON today is worth writing about here. In the future when I sit and think 'hmm, i wonder what one of the freakiest days of my life was like?' I can read this entry and remember the craziness... -_-;;

In a nutshell: Late bus ---> took a detour coz of police blocking off road due to armed robbery ---> bus rage.

So. I had to get to the station on time today coz I couldn't afford to miss my train since I had an appointment with my anxiety psychologist today.

But nooo the bloody bus comes like 15mins late leaving me 6mins to get to my train and buy a ticket. And whilst I was waiting I saw a bright red police car cruise by... hmm...

But noooo the bus suddenly takes this big detour into more traffic and we're all like "WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!" and the bus driver (who is a tadddd grumpy at this stage) explains that the police had blocked off the street near the station. By the time it finished the detour there was 3 mins left to get to train...

But noooo where the bus is supposed to let us off there was another bus blocking the lane with the engine off. So our grumpy busdriver opens the door and yells out at the other bus driver "I'M THE 541 BUS IDIOTTTT!!!" and then manages to let us off a little further up.

But noooooo the bus driver who had been yelled at by MY bus driver was in a rather foul mood himself so he got onto our bus and started yelling back at our bus driver!! Major bus rage! It was looking really aggressive to so I shit-bolted my way off the bus and towards the station. 1 minute to train and just ran onto it before the doors closed..

But noooo when I finally was able to cross the road leading to my psychologist there was a fire truck zooming right towards me so I had to dash madly across the rest of the road so that I wouldn't hold them up or get run over... -_-;;

AND THEN I finished the appointment and came back to my station and the police are stilllll there so I try by best to dodge section blocked off with police tape to cross the road and continue on my merry way home. I turn on the news and see reports of armed robbery involving 3 men carrying loaded rifles. HO MY GOD HAD I KNOWN EARLIER I WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE FREAKED OUT!! The only rifle I've seen in real life was behind glass in a war museum lol!!

"Police are hunting three armed men who robbed a security van in Sydney's northern suburbs, the second such incident in the city this week.

At least three robbers confronted guards in the van in Rawson Street, Epping, about 7am, police said. It's understood the van was dropping off or collecting cash from a club - believed to be The Epping Club - when the attack occurred.The men stole money from the guards and then fled in a vehicle, police said.Shots were fired during the robbery and may have pierced the club's windows, according to police sources. "

Check it out my peeps, this is where I live my life! Every time I need to go to the station I go here: XD

And as far as the attacked van outside the Epping Club goes... I should have known. That club is evvvvil!! When I was in primary school I had to go there once for a choir performace, but I was up the back and it was so stuffy inside that I was literally seconds away from fainting - the conductor got me to come down during the middle of the song coz my face was green and my eyes were starting to roll apparently. As soon as I got outside I dry retched into the bushes and nice old ladies kept making me drink orange juice and have some biscuits. I was only 11 years-old and so frankly I hate that club even now. Hisssss. XD

And so the moral of the story is as always: when times are tough do NOT under any circumstances say the phrase: "Things can't get any worse"... coz they will.
