Days

there are 2 types of good days:

• the days u want to live again and,
  
• the days u don't want to live again.

the first type of good day is the day where everything is awesome, it's as though all the natural forces in the world came together and decided that this day would be the day marked [your name].

the second type of good day is the day where everything is awesome, it's as though all the natural forces in the world came together and decided that this day would be the day marked [your name].

what's the difference?

the day after.

-

i hope i made sense.

Cool

Play it cool :D.

I bought new headphones today :)

I also had my PME midsem.

I finally understand the concept of study = results. lol. except the last question worth 2 marks, i totally forgot about it, even though i read it up.

Something something police, nurses, something something payrise budget surplus.

Hmph!

Also almost finished my ANHB1102 essay. Glad that's getting out of my way..may have exceeded word count though...haven't even done last paragraph OR conclusion. eep!

Now to write something clever in order to inspire Kat-neighbour:

yeah, we all change,
in this book i'm reading, there's something on the lines of

if everything when it occupies an equal space is at rest, and if that which is in locomotion is always occupying such a space at any moment, the flying arrow is therefore motionless.

now i wonder if i made sense :P

btw i'm also really happy for some reason, must be the hair, i don't feel like a junkie anymore :D

Pick

as they always say:

two halves doesn't count as one.

winter's almost over, the rain's nearly gone and i haven't reached my goal :-(.

there's also bondage tonight and my PME midsem tomorrow. i'm not sure how hard it will be, but knowing peter, it'll be tricky and poorly worded.

i think i think too much.

-

shower head crying down on me like the rain
i don't actually know if my tears are falling or not
just like in this story,

i don't know if you'll love me.

we can never reach the rainbows.

Realise

Enough of me now,

it's your turn.

Go on, go crazy :)

You deserve it!

(L)

it's so strange how things operate.

how you can like two things so opposed to each other.

我恨我愛你們.

on a slightly unrelated note, i don't think anyone noticed it, maybe i'm more subtle than i think i am. trust me u probably didn't.

Jokes

为什麽你

as boonandygronnlim(L)(L)(L) once said;
"it made me emo ... haha

go run le"

--

i'm so scared for auditing midsem, i don't want an FC omgggggggggg. no accounting firm will hire me if they find out i failed this godforsaken unit.

and sigh @ bondage the night before my PME midsem. hates it! but the readings are quite short :o.
hopefully i can study today :).

now wake up SBP! so i can go out :@

Outlay

He says i'll pay the price later.

accountants call these liabilities.

i think i might be my own liability.

-

even if it makes me keep my head up; anything that goes up, must come down.

so stop bathing.

-

he says he doesn't like the way i look.

i said he doesn't know the way i look.

maybe it's because when i look, i can at least see hope.

and it's hard to look at him, because i can't see hope.

there are easier ways to dilate my pupils.

-

ps. if anyone wants to go to the MSU ball, message me for more details.

it's on the 10th of september and at midnight you can wish Penny a happy 18th birthday.

-

wow i wrote 4 different things in this post. i really need to study for my midsems and mini-tests. sigh, if i fail auditing it means i fail the whole unit, this semester was meant to be knuckle down for me but the ball is riding my back like a. stop right there. :P

Hapless

the day i get everything my way is the day i die.

that includes passing auditing.

and yes, life is ironic.

i hate it how i wait all day to blog (sticking to my 1p/day) and when the time comes.

i either chicken out on what i want to blog;
or i forget what it was.

o well, 至少还有你 :)

Nou

is not an answer!

omg, where did the last 8 hours of my life go. i can barely recall anything :|


goood nightttt, so happy in a way :).

but now dunno already lol.

and gg to the bouncer asking me for my DoB as though i'm not 18 looking. fucking got proof of age too! pwned :D

yesme

edit: BIG TY TO PEOPLE WHO LOOKED AFTER ME :)

KTV

KTV finals were tonight (well yesterday night..i just got home :)).

Jessica won, Takeru came second and Sally came third. well done! :):)

BL to mel for not getting through to top 3 :(

我好像好像好像好像應該說
我好想好想好想好想對你說

<3 mayday ^_^

edit: oh yeah, new stores opened in the city! so epic!!

Head

if your heart is bigger than your head; you're in a for a long and painful journey.

tonight was spent @ hoggie's for some liferuinerbear, the cake was so rich in chocolate because david chan cut my the edge of icing @_@.

and vinnie bought simmy a vibrator.

NOTA BENE: THAT OLD GUY THAT WALKS AROUND NORTHBRIDGE SELLING ROSES AND SHIT ALSO SELLS VIBRATORS. IN DIFFERENT SIZES!

只是因為你是你

Overclock

omg im gone, i dont think i can make it to uni today.

not because im dead.

but because i didn't prepare for my tutes and seminars

and because there'll be no parking.

i hope the university realises the impact that parking has on the work ethic and morale of the students and staff attending.

anyways, i don't think i can last 2 hours of PME or i'll just die T_T.

today is also failbear's birthday, yesterday we got beached @ UWA tavern and then they got beached @ curtin tavern i think. i don't remember much because i fell asleep most of the time.

baby says i was snoring in the scibrary. that sounds okay until u realise that i was sleeping at the snap tables on the ground floor, which is like the most populated area of the library.

Only

3% of male bird species have penises.

How do they copulate?

"Cloacal" kissing, where their genital openings touch :$.

Big birds are the ones that tend to have penises lol and the Argentine lake duck has a 42.5cm long penis (as long as its body).

So there's the answer to those who asked me if birds have penises.

Brand

On brand?

Us.

Off brand?

Them


Kat-Neighbour suggested i write a post about how much we've changed since first year, as it was a topic that came up on the way home. That'd be too hard, unless you guys help me :)

Essence

3 more minutes and i can get out of here.

dw. i'll try to write another post later, still making up for lost days.

Omelette

Wow, that jenny lam makes a mean omelette.

tastes nice haha :D.

yes i am so bad at cooking egg+rice that i got help from jen.


i also went to see district 9 today. i almost cried at the end for some reason.

cool guns though :D

Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons.

Loop

Jeff is brushing his teeth, but i don't even think he reads my blog because he never mentions it, nor does he comment on it. but then again noone comments on my blog. except anon. Furthermore, i am very impressed with Jeffrey because he did not get into any fights tonight. snaps for jeffrey everyone.

anyways, tonight we had a family (b/meng/viv/me) dinner. we were meant to eat laksa, but because mum likes to straighten her hair, we were late and so we ended up eating KFC, which was good anyway haha. (L) those 3 so much.

then there was metros...

goodness me, never ever let me change wallets ever again. i left my ID in my other wallet, so i called up my lovely brother to use his ID, but that failed, so it ended up getting confiscated. how sad :(, but i'll buy him a new one! :)

then he took me home and i got simmy to drive my car back to NB so i could go metros with the others :).

end of story!

oh yeah, b-dawg yacked everywhere and got kicked out, FTFW ! LOL

now that i'm done describing my day-night i can get onto more random things;

as much as i do want it to happen, i know it never will, so i guess i have to prevent it before i have to deal with curing it. yeah, immunisation hurts, but it's 10x better than treatment.

(8) there must be another way, because I believe in taking chances..

Again

omg i didn't end up double posting for friday because i was busy doing my MYOB assignment.

good heavens it's an awesome assignment :D

but now i'm stuck because i don't know how to do PAYG.

someone help me please?

Paid net wages and salaries [C] for past fortnight, Banking
cheque #23, $3060, and recorded PAYG withholding (Spend Money)
liability (tax instalments) of $1360.

how do i record that!

Minq

I missed a blog post yesterday so this will result in a thursday-friday double post.

Last night was KTV semi finals and also CS Manhattan @ the Minq bar.

omg KTV was so good :)

cos almost everyone sung chinese songs that i knew/liked :).
and i love denise so much! but she didn't get through to the grand finals :(

grats on mel though for getting in :):)

anyways

Minq was also fun, Vinnie (cardigan-vinnie) bought me a martini (my very first one!), it tasted quite nice! he's so nice he bought me a drink :) and i just hung with my fresher kids + tzewei the sister-in-law :)

END OF STORY!

Change

new layout :)

main reason was to swap over to blogger's newer layout scheme where everything was easy to place and not all HTML code!

as u can see i also added a lastfm streamer so u can see what i listen to as well :D

ta ta~

Fight

this is WFC love according to simmybear:

Sago bashes Naijiao, because Nj is weakest. Nj bashes Meng, because it happened in a dream. Meng bashes Leong, because Leong stole his gf. Leong bashes me, because i tease his gf. I bash Jun, for being a dog. Jun bashes George, for being too geng. George bashes Kwan, for always giving him shit. Kwan bashes Kaseng for being too old. Kaseng bashes Eugene for driving so fast and never getting caught. Eugene then bashes John for always afking and heys. John strangles Sago because HE WANTS TO GO HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

win.

Fail

fail all around!

my snap is 105 megabytes over-downloaded and i have no freaking idea how.

i don't think naijiao used THAT much quota.

lol, maybe HoN uses quota :O

Easier

Life would be a lot easier without girls.

and no I don't see my mother as a girl :), she's my mum :D.



not even post secret likes eileen

Haute

this is a saturday post since i was barely at home yesterday;

went to shermaine's 21st and metros tonight.. lol.
shermaine's was pretty good, enjoyed the food and drinks and the atmosphere and listening to the speeches was fun :)
then headed to metros rather late and it was quite ave haha. people were either:
viet,
fob and/or
30+ and perverted.

it was so gross~

so anyways i want to go fishing :(

today has felt like one of those days where you can just go home and sleep well because you've made someone's day.

a big heart can take you on many journeys, to see different things, people and places. but sometimes it doesn't take you home. :(

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

Blur

lol dunno what to say,

tonight feels so boring i resorted to watching animals on youtube.

what to do..

wanted to fish :( but people damn boring/sick.

blur

Decisions

John Khoo: "I'll shoot myself"

LOL

(L).

this game is too fun haha

amelia and i have been playing for 3 days, and we hadn't heard that answer til tonight when john said it LOL

Libram

That paladin..his libram..
it's not a holy scripture
nor is it a bible of the light.

it's the goddamn Auditing and Assurance Handbook by the Institute of Chartered Paladins Accountants.

Why?

it's all about ethics! and honesty! and integrity! and leadership! and principles! and guidance! the path of the light institute may guide me where i tread!

i know. i'm so sad, but it's good 2 see two things i love/hate put into one.

FOR THE LIGHT!


edit: happy birthday to the druids; (wednesday; nj, thursday; ks) :)

Shoot

it's so much easier to just shoot everyone really.

the people you want to marry are only 'cos they're rich
and the people you want to eff are only 'cos you can't shoot them

Albums


Hmm, when i drive around (in particular, this morning when i was taking my sisters to school), i tend to think about things.

The most prevailing thing in my mind was to blog about my favourite music albums, i don't want to limit this to 5, 10 or even 15, because who said I had to stick to such constraints!

I was going to give images for each album and track-list, but that'd take up too much space, so if you want to have a look at what the album cover and if you want to see what the tracks from each album are, just click the corresponding links. Feel free to ask me to send you any songs as well :)

So here goes and in no particular order (probably artist-alphabetical since i'm going through my iTunes library):


A-mei 張惠妹 - Star

Firstly, A-mei is queen @ singing. I love her voice so much and when this was released, it was one of those albums where 'they haven't released any in a while'. Those sorts of albums come with a lot of good songs. And this one does not fail at that. Certain songs on this track could probably make me cry if I tried hard enough.

Armin Van Buuren - Imagine

This album is win. Recommend to me by B earlier this year, it has become my lie-on-the-bed-while-reading and also my jogging song. The tracks on this song are all quite good and it justifies AvB as the awesomest DJ in the world. He's just as good live as well. :)

Various Artists - 超級星光大道 10 強紀念合輯 and 愛 星光 精選 - 昨天 今天 明天

These two albums are from the finalists from the first season of 星光大道. As always, the first season has been the best so far and I could listen to these two albums forever. The compilation of songs (a lot of good songs from other artists) is one reason and the collection of artists is another. These guys (and girl!) have used so much of my quota from just streaming their episodes constantly.

Big Bang - Remember and Number 1

Another 'two albums'. Mm, Big Bang = awesome. Their songs are so catchy and their dances are so cute! and I especially like Seung-Ri :D. These two albums are also grouped together because I listened to both of them simultaneously when I downloaded acquired them. Summer + Big Bang = Memories.

BoA - The First Album

I used to listen to BoA when I was 13-14. Back then she was all J-Pop and Amazing Kiss. Now I'm 20, she's hit the USA and her beats are still just as catchy. Even better that it's in English. Her lyrics are awesome (not creative, just pwnage): "This song is all about me, damn right it's all about me. La la la la la la. La la la la la la".

Da Mouth - 王元口力口

Da Zui Ba! These guys are like renowned for being the "Asian black eyed peas". They're all from different parts of Asia/the world and they made a pretty good album in Summer 08. Which brings me to the point of this album being one of those albums I kept on repeat during the holidays. It also reminds me of the Lexus for the same reason.

Elva 萧亚轩 - 1087

This album came out right before I went to Melb/Syd in 2007. Consequently, I kept listening to it, along with Evan Yo - 19, F.I.R. - Flight Tribe and TANK - Keep Fighting, while I was there, so it conjures memories of those awesome times I spent with Jess, Nhi, Ray and all our Melb/Syd friends. This was also one of the first songs that filled up my iTunes library which is now peaking 17 gb. I would add the other 2 albums, but I don't want to put too many in this blog post.

Jay Chou 周杰倫 - 魔杰座, 范特西, 十一月的蕭邦, 我很忙, 七里香 and 依然范特西 All his goddamn albums!!

Come on, I've been listening to Jay Chou since he first came out and I can pin each album to any part of my life. I could even say that I've "grown up" with his music (and his career!). Regardless of how simple and "plain" his tunes might be, he never fails to impress me each time. As John "the Strangler" Khoo once pointed out, Jay Chou's voice is one of the hardest to imitate. That's true, and that's why Jay is so awesome.

JJ Lin 林俊杰 - 樂行者

JJ Lin is just as awesome, I remember listening to this album particularly in 2005, when Jess went back to China and bought this album! This was also JJ's debut album, so it was set to impress. I used to listen to this album non-stop during my FFX days, where I would endlessly grind the Monster Arena (omg sadface). I would include the rest of his albums in this post, but I'm under the impression that this entry has size constraints.

五月天 - All albums

There's something about Mayday that I love. Maybe their "story", maybe the fact that their lyrics are different. Or maybe that for each album they only put a certain amount of good songs, which has led me to write "All albums" instead of pointing out any in particular. One of my favourite Mayday songs however, is from "我们是:)五月天", which has got to be one of the coolest names for an album. I can't believe I missed their Australian concerts either!

Nan Quan Mama 南拳妈妈 - 调色盘 and 藏宝图

Ah, another awesome band. NQMM were my favourite in highschool; maybe 'cos of Lara, who is the female vocalist. Or maybe because they're the band that Jay helped to form. Anyways, I love NQMM for their songs, they're cute, catchy and carry with them a different style than other songs. And just like any other album I listen to, I can also pinpoint this album to a particular point in my life.

Nicky Lee 李玖哲 - 想太多

When this album came out, I didn't really know who he was. But after "acquiring" this album, I couldn't stop listening to it for a while. It could be his unique voice or it could be his catchy tunes. This album is upbeat and it was one of my "paladin-levelling" albums (by coincidence not choice). Ah..reminds me of Tarren Mill...

Sam Lee 李圣杰 - 關於妳的歌

This album was acquired when I was out searching for 你那麼愛他. Turned out that not only was that song good, but the album~. JT/Didi has the same singing voice as Sam lee and this is also why I like listening to him - so I can request for JT to sing for me some day... But yeah, I could best describe this as the album I'd listen to when I'm 40 because his voice and tunes are so nice and simple that time can't wear it away.

Lee Hom 王力宏 - 改变自己 and 心跳

Yeah, just like JJ and Jay Chou, I used to listen to Lee Hom heaps. Then I listened to "Not Your Average Thug" and thought it was about time I stopped. How dumb of me. Even though I bought 心中的日月 while I was in Melb, I didn't really listen to it and I only really got back into Lee Hom when 改变自己 came out. These two albums are awesome I can't even explain why. It could be his voice? his appeal? Something about Lee Hom's songs that make me want to live in them. Heartbeat also has a cool album cover :). Little fact: Leehom released 改变自己 in an attempt to raise environmental awareness. The packaging and contents are all made of recycled paper and use zero plastic!

Xiao Hong Ren (MY FUTURE HUSBAND) 蕭閎仁 - Debut Album

This album is awesome. As a debut album it was so good. And his voice is soooo nice. I could listen to this album whenever I want and enjoy it, his tunes are so soothing and combined with his awesomely husky voice, my day can always be made. He was also on the one million singer show once and I melted (A).

Xiao Yu 小宇 - 就站在這裡

This guy was new to me. Even though he had released another album before this, I hadn't heard of him. However, this album is still on repeat for me since it came out. His voice is similar to Nicky Lee's and just like Nicky, his tunes are quite upbeat and catchy (maybe due to their greater contact with the USA). But anyway, his eyes remind me of Jay Chou's. All-in-all, highly recommended album by me :).

Yoga (James) Lin 林宥嘉 - 神秘嘉宾

As some people may know, You Jia won the first season of xing guang da dao. He released this album soon after and even though some people don't like his voice or his songs, I think they're both quite unique. His singing style and his singing voice. This album made the list because of the mellow aura that it brings to my playlist. Very good album to listen to when you wanna' just lie down and enjoy the 'now'.


AND THAT, is my list of albums that I think you should listen to. It's not a completely exhausted list, there are certain albums with several good songs that I really really like (even moreso than some of these albums), but me being an accountant, have to adhere to the standards set and these standards say 'Albums'. Apoligies :).

Btw, this has been the longest blog post ever. Long in terms of time, not length or characters. I've spent almost 3 hours writing this up T_T.

Poser

Not me,
Not menghan

but amelia LOLOl.

Runway

was 2 nights ago.

Quite an epic night i must say, a lot of effort put into selling tickets by my commitee, particularly the freshers who have done a good job; i barely sold anything in my first year :).

So anyway, i hate writing endless paragraphs so i'll just dot point;

-(L) Jin-nee for the 4 shots
-(L) PJ for the 151
-(L) (whoever) for the jaeger bombs
-I don't remember much
-erm, i slapped a few people :S (nj, ks, josh, all i remember for now)
-lol @ the 'business boys' being called gay
-met a few people
-lol@ penny going home early. fail penelope pitstop.
-eff, i really don't remember anything.

sorry penny, this was my best attempt at trying to remember friday night!

much love ~

Blog

About this blog..

as you can see, I still have a creative drought so it'd be awesome if you 'readers' (I really don't know who reads and who doesn't) gave me some questions or ideas to write about in the comments :).

It'd make this game more fun.

greatly appreciated (L)

and yes, double post because I forgot to post yesterday since I had MSU Runway :).
ergo, this is for saturday;

and I don't know if i've posted this up yet, but I love this song too much..

啊啊 我要和你一起走過一千個世紀
每次誕生 我都要與你相遇
每次輪迴 都是為你

啊啊 我要和你一起活過一千個世紀
每次誕生 都只有一個意義
就是和你在一起

一千個世紀

Enough

My life in a nutshell:

See more than I need to see
Hear more than I need to hear
Know more than I need to know
Care more than I need to care
and
Be more than I need to be.

Runway was a success :). Well done to the committee for the awesome effort put into ticket selling, the place packed out quite nicely :).

yeah, and I don't remember a single thing.

and you know what? I can't even be bothered trying to be subtle anymore:

I don't eff-ing understand..
