At the moment, it seems that my blog setting have stuffed up NOOOOOOO! Who cares =/. Anyways, today Kelly, VIcky, Eric and I went to Parramatta to do some formal shoes shopping. Unfortunately, neither of them accomplished the task. I was also struggling in handing out my resumes since most of the shops seemed to have hired their required workers already *sigh*. But like what Kelly said "perseverance will pay off." I just hope that she's right.
Anyways, after we arrived back to our own suburb, unfortunately Kelly had to go home. Minhky took her place instead. We bussed it to Vicky's house to get the Cranium board game before going back to my house to play. It was pretty fun and competitive, with girls versing boys. Eventually, it became a tie. Amazingly enough, they've actually stayed up to about just over 11 something PM. Anyways, it was a pretty fun day, tiring nonetheless. Oh, and thank to Vicky for giving me her sunglasses xD That's about it from me =). Ciao!
PS. I finished watching My Lucky Star and I actually cried xO. Woot woot Jimmy Lin!!!

sometimes, what actually happens is better than what you expect
Okay, so that isn't the actual saying, but who cares =P you know what I mean anyways! But let me ask you, have you ever planned to do something but the outcome turned out to be unexpectedly different, in a positive hindsight; that the outcome turned out to be much better than what you planned to happen. I think it yesterday would be the first time, that I know I would remember for the maybe the rest of my life, as a day where things turned out better than planned.
Initially, Kelly and I were invited to visit Star Academy to ask for some advice in regards to the performing arts industry; Kelly would've asked about acting and I would've asked about photography. We knew that it existed because 1. we could call them and 2. people that we knew HAVE been there before. Therefore, it shouldn't be a scam.
Anyways, after walking up and down Pitt street for almost 2 hours, and no I am NOT exaggerating here, we yield to our stomachs. I guess it was our determination, preservation and stubbornness which caused us to continue looking for this god forsaken place =.= oh wells. Actually, I guess it was Kelly's determination that gave me the courage to continue as well. Alas, it didn't last long.
Although we didn't get to visit the place, we saw things which we never knew, nor paid attention to, in the city. For example, for me it was the State Theatre Sydney in the city, and for Kelly, just random shops which she didn't know existed. We visited Myers and heaps of fun playing with the make up and smelling perfume. We were also surprised by the amount of promotion there were for various perfumes, like Rockawear. We actually had a coupon to receive 120 mLs of it too! The smell's not bad, but I don't know if they're right about the 'Stay on her mind' quote. They had dancers performing to promote the product xD! I wish I was as good as them.
Attention my friends, I would like you guys to participate in the LIMBO COMPETITION held by Gillete Venus and believe me, it will be a rewarding experience!
Now doesn't that sound tempting? Kelly and I have registered for it, so to increase our change in winning, you shoudl too!
I also took Kelly to the State Library and she seemed quite amazed by the architecture. Who wouldnt xD? She also took the liberty in making a library card herself =D YAY! Initially, I had some trouble signing into the computers, but it's all fixed now =) so it's all good yay!
We went to Fairfiedl in the afternoon, and thanks to Kelly, I managed to finally hand out some resumes =D! Unfortunately, I later realised that it was my old mobile number that was printed on my resume >OMy Lucky Star YAY! She's so lovable xD. I LOVE YOU KELLY! That's it for now, hope you guys are having heaps of fun as I am!
PS. I finished reading the manga Tsubasa Resvoir Chronicles. I quite like the storyline, but the ending wasn't that satisfactory. Ngeh, I still like people to read it, although it is quite a long manga.
PSS. Sorry Kelly for being tardy... again xO!

and so begins the 4 month holiday
1511O9 - Christine N.'s 18th & William 哥哥's 33rd Birthday.
1311O9 - Pui yi 姐姐's Birthday.
1O11O9 - Julie K.'s 18th Birthday.
I apologise for not blogging lately and no, it is not because I've been so busy that I haven't got the time to blog about my rendezvous with friends. On the contrary, my schedule have been quite ... empty =.= . Not that I prefer it that way, but there's not much I can do if I don't have that much $$$ on me *sigh*. Hence, the job hunt. Of course I haven't stayed at home for the entire time. For example, I went celebrating the conclusion of Kelly and Minhky's HSC exams, along with Vicky, Danny and Joes. We went swimming at Cabramatta swimming pool and unfortunately, Vicky seem to have jinxed us because right after she said "it could be worse" it started raining LOL that silly Vicky! Next was Parramatta to eat and watch a movie. And again, another Vicky moment occured; Vicky suggested that we'd go visit Eric while he works but once we got to the stall, he was absent. Vicky gave a call to him and apparently, Eric works at Bankstown and that he never said that he worked at Parramatta O_o' LOL! D'OH! Anyways, although initially there were some disagreements about what movie to watch, in the end we ended up watching 'The Time Traveler's Wife.' Apparently, the book review is quite good. Although I haven't read the book myself, according to Kelly and Vicky, the movie didn't seem to suffice in expressing the storyline effectively. They also said that if you haven't read the book, you wouldn't really understand what is going on for the first 30 minutes of the movie, or so. I agree. Even though I haven't read the book, I can tell that parts seemed to be missing from the movie, similarly to 'Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince.' Even so, I thought the movie was quite sad and that they had managed to capture the compassionate atmosphere well. I almost cried xO! Keyword: almost. I think I'd rate it a 7/10 =).
Unfortunately I had family commitments, so I couldn't attend Julie's 18th birthday party xO NOOO! But I'm glad that she had heaps of fun that day =D. I could've came over at night, but I was just too tired, so I didn't. For once, since the holidays started, I actually slept before 12 AM LOL! Anyways, it was my cousin William's early 33rd birthday dinner. Yes, it sounds like a large number, but damn does he look young xO! I guess it's a good thing about Asians, we just look young most of the time, no matter how old we really are xP. People say I look young too... but I wonder if it's because of my looks, or because of my height.. =.= I think it's my height =P. Anyways, we went to Golden Star Restaurant, as usual, and the menu was the same as before however, there was an extra dish of fried squid. Apparently, the dish was something they used to like to eat when they were young. I didn't try it of course. The reason? I don't like eating anything with tentacles, except for jellyfish =). Although I'd eat almost anything with mango, octopus and squid are an exception to this =). After dinner, William, Marina, Edward and I went out for dessert at Ice and Splice: gelateria e pizzeria. I had a 'Cinnamon Belgian Waffle' which includes cinnamon and maple syrup, white chocolate gelato and whipped cream for $8.50. Thinking about it just makes me drool xD. It may be a bit expensive, but boy was it worth it! I feel kind of bad for making my cousins shout me all the time, but seeing that I'm the youngest, I guess it's okay. I shall shout them back when I have the money next time xD!
I could've signed out in one day but Mr. Mahony sure had a busy schedule as the principal. I also wish that I could've sold all my text books as well. What stingy students xO ngeh, Asians, what can be done. Yes, I'm stingy too, but I guess I usually just buy stuff at the original price, rather than bargaining for a lower price. Hms... maybe I should learn how to bargain. It can't be too hard, Asians are just natural at this! Maybe I should rephrase my sentence - I shall learn to be a successful bargainer.
Anyways, that's about it really. I've been wasting my youth away by rewatching dramas and reading manga *sigh*. Yes, I'm THAT boring. I'll be continuing with my job hunt, so ciao for now =). Hopefully, next I'll have more exciting news to share.
PS. Congratulations to everyone with finishing their HSC! Party hard everyone and take care!
