| Hey Guys!
I know I have been hopeless with the livejournal, but so busy and facebook is so much kooler now. Anyways, I'll give u a quick update on things.
I went to the US for 2 weeks i think about 2 months ago. That was pretty awesome and visited the LA, Houston, and San Francisco. I have photos on facebook to prove it.
Came back from the US and mildly celebrated my 100th day since I dated Leigh, though initially i wasn't aware it was our 100th day. That was probably the first time Leigh has done anything sweet... and that it probably won't happen again, Lolz. And so far we been together for 4 months.. and a bit.
I caught a virus the week after and now leigh has come down with both tonsilitus and glandular fever. I still have not contracted either of those or have not shown signs of it yet. I swear we have the worse couple medical history. This isn't the first time Leigh has been sick since we dated, he had tonsilitus early this year too and a chest infection. I went to visit him on Sunday, he didn't look good at all... and I got to meet his Mum. So wasn't expecting her so I was pretty quiet most of the time, but she seems nice. I hope she doesn't hate me. I think she was excited to meet me, but I was being shy so I think she lost the enthusiasm cause I think she imagined me to be mega awesome.
Anyways....
Uni has been ridiculously busy, I have so much work it's crazy!
Also, apologies to both Fraser and Emily that I cannot attend your house warming cause I forgot that I was invited to Katherine Gil's 21st. | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment   |

| Update time!
I went to my first uni function on Weds night. I had a pretty good time. Even though, nothing went my way.. Oh well...
It was a pretty fun night, the boys made me dance, and succeeded badly, cuz I'm the worse dancer ever!
The cruise was pretty kool, but i was disappointed that they didn't have an open rooftop.. and docklands isn't that pretty at night. Southbank would have prettier lights. Docklands were pretty much just industrial crap... oh and below are photos of the after party... there's more photos coming, but my friends haven't got a hold of the other cameras....
( Photos ) I also bumped into Swelly and Chris (sean's best mate) at the place. Swelley came as a bogan, which i didn't realise was considered fancy dress and Chis came as a cowboy. I came as formal cuz i thought more people would come as formal..... and I think I dressed a bit too skanky, but Siao told me I got away with it cuz I look innocent, so phew.... that dress only cost me $80 and it was from allanah hill too. What a bargain!
It was so funny, Digsy and leigh kept on finding props from costume at the after party. We ended up leaving the after party, with harry potter glasses, a fake nose ring, a plastic machine gun and pirate hand hook thingy. we went crown afterwards and I'm surprised how digsy didn't get stopped with a fake machine at the crown. We went to gamble a bit, it was so kool! We played blackjack. I lost $10 but then both Digsy and Leigh gave me $5 each and I won an extra $10 and they wouldn't take my winings so I scored $20. So I made a profit of $10, really.
Oh and there were so many slutty girls at the party...... Leigh's friend who is like 6'7" and pretty hot if he wasn't such a whore... got with at least 3 girls at that night and he has a gf. WHORE! And there would like girls who would randomly hug and kiss them on the cheek. Some of them were so ugly! ewwwwww and my friend, (another) Nick was coming over to hug me and was intercepted by some random girl and she hugged him and gave him a kiss. And I'm like do u know her, he's like no! She was so gross too.
Oh and there was this random creepy guy in camflage uniform who just came into our circle and danced with us. It was so weird, we were like who the fuck is he? But anyways, it was a great night, though at lesat 3 hearts were broken or will be broken, but a great night indeed. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| Haven't updated for a while. I thought i should since I don't speak to any of u at all. Besides occasional alison.
Not much has happend. Back at uni and have a crush on a boy which will never eventuate. But I think I'm getting closer, at least this guys invite me out. So pretty much the same thing happens every year.I'm going to try to work hard but will probably fail miserably.
Oh this year I get to do actual projects. Where we have proper clients to deal with. I guess its kinda like IBL, except we don't work for a company. But it should be exciting. I think I found a smart group. I was so smooth I spoke to the guys once and got on to their team. I think they know what there doing cuz i dun. But they're nice and explain what i dun understand, which is EVERYTHING.
Oh and I'm meeting Arlen, Rika, and Bec tmr for lunch and then we are going to a BBQ that i was invited to by the guy I like. I'm excited, it should be good, if I don't go all weird. And my cousin described me as a Walking Talking Diary, that's the best description I have ever got. ANyways Alison is impatient about my lj update so it will finish for now. cuz i need to switch comps..... | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| | Current Music: | You Could Be Happy - Snow Patrol | | Subject: | NEW GUITAR | | Time: | 11:06 pm | | Current Mood: | ![[mood icon]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/mood/ibrad/nerd.gif) high |

| Yes!! I got a new acoustic guitar for early xmas present from my parents. Well actually 60% of it is from them and 40% is from me to me....hehehe. But I'm obsessed with it. The RRP was $1195 but it was on sale and got it $400 off. Pic ( here ). Except its not as bright as the photo. It's actually alot darker, it looks more brown than red in real life. The colour is probably closer to the one that has the photo of the whole body. I was actually going to get ( this ). I did so much research on the cort one. but didn't even get it. The cort one looks a little more glamourous with crazy inserts. But it didn't sound as good as the one i bought. Cuz this one was a solid spuce top and mine is a solid cedar top. Though spuce is good for the long run, but cedar sounds prettier. And mine isn't asian, lol. The corts are made from korea. I think mine is made from canada, well thats what it says....... but they're probably a really fine print that says something made in china. Everything is made in china these days....
Anyways, holidays been pretty good..... and fairly laid back.... Though this week was quiet. Everything that came up was cancelled somehow. I was suppose to see Casino Royale with "the azn" but things came up and that was cancelled. And was suppose to go to a pub crawl that this guy (scott) invited me to that I met at a going away party. But didn't cuz it was hot and I got lazy and we (siao and I) think he likes me but it's ashame I don't like him. I only initially wanted to go to the pub crawl cuz his friend timmy invitd me thru him and timmy is the nicest person i ever met.
I felt sorry for siao cuz i dragged her to what she called scott's and my first date but i ruined cuz i dragged her along. Scott ignored siao the whole night pretty much. She felt terrible for being the third wheel and i felt bad for dragging her to such a boring dinner. Scott was so rude and unfriendly! I owe Siao big time! I think that's as exciting as goss goes with me. Though I wish it was good goss......
Oh i also have gone cd crazy i bought like 5 cds in a month. That's alot for someone who generally downloads music. CDs bought below.....
John Mayer - Continum
The Wreckers - Stand Still, Look Pretty
The Fray - How to Save a Life
Snow Patrol - Eyes Open
Damien Leith - The Winner's Journey (yes, I did buy the aus idol CD)
I love Damien Leith, I love his voice. And he's not THAT ugly as Mark Holden described. Mum and I don't think he's ugly. He's just not conventionally attractive, but definitely not ugly. He's kinda cute in a irish way. I can't wait till his actual album comes out. Though I have a feeling aus idol will ruin him.
Anyways that's my update for the month or few months..... | | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment |
| OMGz NICHOLAS TSE IS MARRIED!!! I'm gonna go and slit my wrist now, lol..
Rumour has it that he is expecting a child that's why he got married. His married to some other HK movie star, Cecilia Cheung. Cecilia mother's like half asian so she's like 1/4 not asian.
Apparently, Cecilia didn't even know she was getting married at the time. It was a surprise wedding how bizarre but sweet. Though only he can pull off cuz he's so hot. It was so random. THey just recently got back together......and bam! Crazy its like the news of the month. It's all over HK, every second on star news is about him.
I hope she is pregnant they're going to have hot kids.
And the parents didn't even know about the wedding. It was really hush hush, not even the wife knew. So bizarre..............
Anyways, not much other news really. Though I'm making a simple search engine i've been working on the project for nearly 3 weeks now and I still haven't finished. Despite how much work i'm putting into it for only 15, I do enjoy the process of making it. I've been like sleeping at odd hrs of the mornings cuz i stay up making the search engine. I haven't slept earlier than 3am since ages.......
It's so complicated but so satisfying when parts of the program work. So far I have able to make it take in a directory of file with htmls renamed and index all the words in the files and spit out a file that list all the distinctive words and which files contain that word. And work out pagerank (Look it up on google) for all the files. I'm half way thru the last part. But the other half is ridiculously long task. I have to make my search engine show a snippet of the file that contains the word. So crazy....................
Oh and on top of that I still have to write a report on the efficiency of the program...fun fun fun.............hehehehe............. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |
| Hey Guys!!
I know have been terribly bad with catching up and updating lj. I wanted to come to Nick's on Friday but Grandma was in hospital and had a minor heart attack and she's back in there again. Dad couldn't drive me to Nick's and he wanted me to be nearby just in case anything happens. So after visit to grandma I ended up meeting Siao and Caz in the city late.
I was just smsing nick was it nick, I'm not sure cuz my mob won't turn on and im using my mums and don't have my phone book entries. Anyways I sms nick or whoever that she was out of the hospital but she's like back in there within half an hr. Crazy...... I saw her today again she seems okay but just exhausted. It's weird she has suffer no pains, except she's always tired and itchy. Every time I'm babysitting her she always sleeps. Though I'm kinda glad cuz we kinda have a bit of language barrier. Well I understand her but she doesn't understand me cuz she's old and forgetful and has a hearing problem.
I hope she's going to b back in shape after they give them this new medicine. I mean she really does want to see me get married, lol. She said to my aunt that all I hope now is to live to see Kylie get married and I'm not even gonna bother with Kimberley (my sis)
I dunno wats with the past year. First it was my grandma on my mum's now on my dad's. Crazy.......
Anyways.....oh is Dean Gayer actually a virgin. My cousin and sis, both 10 yrs old, told me Dean is a virgin. Can anyone verify that? There's noway he's a virgin! He's too good looking.
And is anything happening on Tuesday night? Like Trivia? I'll may come to that.
Oh oh oh I went shopping today for the first time since HK cuz I have been lazy. It's so good to fit in small clothes again! I picked up a size 6 jeans! Okay its from Country Road so everything is bigger than the actual size. I swears its a size 10! Cuz its still a little loose and I'm generally a size 8 and I haven't lost THAT much weight I still fit into my old pants and my pants aren't the type to shrink. Anyways, I don't have much goss really. Oh actually, I think the Judo Club at melb uni is over cuz there were some communication problems btw the instructor and the president.
Just when I was getting better. Now I have to start my gym routine dammit.
AND OMGZ HOW HOT ARE THE NEW IPOD NANOS!!
I WANT ONE!! I PREFER PINK BUT the 8GB only comes in black. But will have to wait when my current ipod dies. So hopefully during this period they will bring out a pink one. Though I should have a change but the new pink is so much brighter. It would have been kool if it came in the same colour as my phone. mmmmm hot pink. It would all match my room (my featured wall is painted mettalic hot pink)
I think that is all and should be enuf to compensate a month of lack of lj updates and catching up. | | comments: Leave a comment |

| | OMGz I got my yellow belt for Judo. It's so kool! But it wasn't terribly hard to pass. The instructor basically made me do the moves until I got it right. I did them all wrong on first go. There was this one move that I have perfected overtime but it turned out it wasn't on the exam, but it was on the orange belt exam. So I have that one set for next level. I nearly got most of the throws right it was just my foot positioning. But the rest was hard. You would think that throwing someone bigger than you would be harder. But I realized that being shorter, its actually easier for me to throw. Cuz I don't have to bend as far and my centre of mass is also lower. Anyways thats my news and I think that is all....... | | comments: Leave a comment |
| Okay im in one of the computer labs waiting for my lecture to start and thought I would update. There's not much to say really but I thought I need to kill some time. Oh and Alison if your reading Dan is hot!
Anyways........I've been pretty good with Uni. Actually getting to work. I was so proud last night I made an algorithm to check a wining combination for tic tac toe. Okay some of you may have discovered but I just figured it okay. You see if the tic tac toe board was positions were labeled from 0-8 like below.
012 <-row 1
345 <-row 2
678 <-row 3
To work out a wining combination in a row. All you need to do is divide all positions number that the player has by 3. And 3 position number answers give you the same result then its a wining combination. Bare in mind that the computer rounds things down even though its like 1.5, the comp will consider it 1 not 2.So for example. If you were X and they were positioned 3 4 5. 3/3=1, 4/3=1 and 5/3=1.
It's the same with columns except instead you find the remainder when divided by 3.
ie 1 4 7. see 1/3 -> r = 1, 4/3 -> r = 1 and 7/3 -> r = 1.
and with diagonal the position number has to be even abd all 3 numbers add up to 12.
But apparently there's another way of working out something to do with magic squares. Oh well stuff them I like mine better.
Okay yeah I'm stuck on programming mode since I'm doing 3 programing subjects this semester
But I think I have learn to love software eng and have changed back to it. But I still have to be here for an extra half a year. I'm doing both Java and C. Java is weird, C is so much better. Anyways enuf crapping on about boring stuff. Lecture time! | | comments: 10 comments or Leave a comment |
| Update time! Okay I have been terribly slack with the whole livejournal thing (including reading) and keeping in touch. Your probably expecting a good excuse, like I'm pregnant(having jesus of course) or I've died and resurrected. But no, I have just been lazy and completely transformed in to HK TV series junkie and trying to learn 3 subjects within a month and try attempt to do better than pass. Man i feel like the days of our lives. U'll come back to the lj in a year and its the same story but different day.
Anyways.. I'm going to Hong Kong and Shanghai between 8th - 19th of July. So just in case anyone has a party at that time and wonder why I didn't reply its cause I'm out of the country.
I'm so excited about going to Shanghai, my distant relative, Tiffany, who's from the US that I get along really well with. Is coincidentally in Shanghai when I'm there. So I'll get to see her again. Even though my cousin and I had planned to see her last year which never happend. But I'm glad these things end up working out themselves.
Hmm talking about distant relatives, I really want to visit Canada too.
Oh Btw, if your planing on getting a wedding cake from my shop. You have approx 5 years, cause mum talked about retirement the other day. Apparently she's retiring at the age of 60. And making sugar flowers to make a little bit of extra cash when she retires. But good thing she said she'll still make my cake. Fingers crossed that will happen. Otherwise *plan B it is. Anyways I'm off to bed...
*Plan B: Pay some guy to marry me and adopt three half asian kids and divorce him after. SOunds like a good plan no pain and no weight gain. And I'll get to choose their gender so I won't have that whole disappointment of not ever having a son. I've already thought of names for my kids. jazz (boy), reece (boy) and evelyn(girl) not too sure about evelyn..I'm stil working on the girl one. I'm trying to keep them one syllabel.
EDIT: OMG Brian Littrell from the BSB has released an Album called Welcome Home!! I'm so downloading that. I found that out looking up on the internet about some HK series which is completely unrelated. It's faith! | | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment |
| Okay update time! I decided I am becoming more asian as the years progress. I spend way too much time downloading hk talk/game shows and asian music, and looking up asian gossip in english. It's so much easier to find better asian music, cause I don't have to be so critical about their lyrics cause 99% I have no idea what they are talking about......all I need to know that its a love song, actually I really don't know I just assume. So it could be like backstreet boys singing eminem's lyrics and I wouldn't even know.
Anyways.........I have also made a self discovery that on both of my feet the toe next to my big toe is longer than big toe. I knew my feet were ugly but I didn't realised it was actually deformed. Or is that suppose to be normal? I would take photos, but feet are ugly things and I never know where the camera is. I'll show u next time when I'm wearing thongs.
I think that is all | | comments: 12 comments or Leave a comment |
| Today was a good day...... though I failed to study as usual. I had 2 lectures and 1 tute today. Wasn't terribly stressful. Though I didn't turn up to my afternoon class cause its so pointless and its an Management subject. My tutor is better at explaining the material and the lady sounds like pauline hanson but more masculine. But anyways I had HUGE breaks cause I was waiting around for my judo lesson.
I was suppose to study but then bumped in to my new friend, miles, and wandered around the uni with him. And he took me to the art centre where all the newer and prettiest imacs lived. It was so kool! The room was all imacs and they all had the same background but each iMac had a different colour. So it made the room looked pretty. And then miles showed me the phone booth program and the ( results )
Anyways miles is kool. Except he may seem a bit full on at times. He's such an extrovert that it makes him kinda weird. But still kool.... I believe I met him at PUGGs at my friends birthday party. But anyways after wasting my time doing no study, I eventually had to turn up to Judo.
It was my second lesson. I'm the ONLY GIRL. The first lesson I did mostly floor work where I had to either lie on top of a guy or let a guy lie on top of me. Cuz the whole point of judo is to keep ur opponent on their backs for 25 secs or do a perfect flip and they end up on their full backs. But it was kool, cuz this guy who was a brown belt couldn't get me off. Though apparently he did more standing work than floor work. I did alot for my first lesson, I thought I would just learn how to fall.
But that wasn't as awkward as expected and I thought that the positions could not get worse than that, but I was WRONG, very wrong...............
The coach didnt come today but they had someone else, but we did more brazilian jiu jitsu, which is like judo but all floor work but its more like wrestling. You have to make the opponent submit (giveup) to win. I had to do head locks and arm locks. And most of those moves requires me to be lying on the floor and a guy lie on top of me and I have to wrap my legs around their hips or over the head. I felt so sorry for the guy cuz I couldn't get any of the moves right. The whole point is to choke them so they submit. And I just couldn't choke him no matter how hard i squeezed my limbs and pulled his arm. And I had to stall so much cuz the instructor had to give me pointers. So I had my legs wrapped around him for like 5 mins at some stage. And they're not terribly comfortable positions........
I'm so not doing jiu jitsu! I hope the judo instructor comes in next week! Or I really need a female to join judo! Anyone want to join? $80 for a yr membership and $1 per lesson. Its on Thursday 5:30-7:15pm at Melbourne Uni. You know you want to..........lie on top of me. Come on its a good deal, lol. | | comments: 7 comments or Leave a comment |
| Update time! I know I have been slack...... but its so pointless..... Well I haven't done anything terribly exciting.....
I had my last class of Summer Semester Math Applied on Monday. That was great! And now I'm studying to have another fail attempt to get a H1. But it seems the chances are getting a little bigger. I figured if I get at least 59%, its a guranteed H1. But then I realised the exam is 75% so therefore I need to get close to 80% on the exam. Crap........ Oh well. at least summer semester have been fun. Made a couple of friends, Minoli & Megan. Minoli is one of those hot sri lankian girls who seem to know alot of hot guys. And Megan's like an extreme version of me (try hard australian), except she's kool.
And possibly developed a huge crush on some guy, during the semester, who used to be in my Programing tute. I have no idea why cuz I have never spoken to him properly or had taken the time to find out his name. We only wave at each other when we are alone. So in conclusion, a very shallow crush, so didn't bother in even trying to be friendly towards him. I think he's name is chris, I think........ I really don't know.
On the topic of crushes, I went out on Valentines day with Caroline, Siao and Cathy and their accessories. Yet again spend another valentine day with Siao, twice in consecutive years. It was pretty good, we went for dinner and I attempted to direct the girls to bowling but that didn't quite work and resided near the yarra and talked. And now i"m off to have a shower and try to sleep early to get to the gym tmr. I really need to get back, cuz my muscles are getting weak. I went on Tuesday morning and the pain hit me the next 2 days.
Anyways I'm off and I'll actually post something of any importance next entry. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| Grandma passed away today.......don't know why I'm not in a mess atm like I was at the hospital when I found out she was dying a few days ago. Atm I feel very numb, and am relunctant to go to work and feel the aftermath. I'm going to miss her, its going to be weird not seeing her every second day and someone to grin at my crappy jokes.
Well at least she's in no pain anymore and she passed away with her children surrounding her like the way she wanted.
What a crap week? first emily's cat now my gran. RIP gran and little black one. | | comments: 9 comments or Leave a comment |

| ALright if anyone is interested sexpo is on again this year. But the last day is tmr cuz lack of organisation and laziness I couldn't be bothered organising.....
And not much to update. Been pretty boring lately, haven't been out besides to see my Grandma and "studying". I have one more exam to go!! Hurrah. My last one is next weds hooray!! I hope I passed the last 3. I really can't afford to fail AGAIN....

| | Okay this is too funny not to tell. Whilst in the car on our way home from my birthday dinner. Mum saw this really nice skirt on a shop window and told me to look and then I realised it was the Harem? I think the adult store on Bridge rd. Everybody in the car started laughing cuz Mum didn't realise what type of store it was. And then mum's like we should go check out their clothes one day and I'm like you can go but I'm not. I don't want to be around seedy old men, lol. Then I had to explain to mum that it wasn't an "appropriate" store. And she's like oh thank god you told me cuz I was going to check out that store at some stage. hahahahahah asian mums are so funny sometimes. It would have been an interesting exp for her, she'll probably come home and be like why do they have huge "water plugs" for sinks? Oh now I wish I didn't tell her....... | | comments: Leave a comment |
| OMG WE HAVE TO SEE "THE PROMISE" WHEN IT COMES OUT IN AUSTRALIA!!
Nicholas tse is in this film and it looks pretty good well I'm biased cuz I'm in love with Nicholas Tse *hugs Nicholas CD Collection"
Anyways this film has been nominated "best foreign film" at Oscar 2006 so it should be good right? and been dubbed asian lotr!
Here's the trailer link MUST SEE
http://www.cinema.com.hk/broadcast/trailer/ThePromise-1.wmv
(Nicholas Tse is the guy slobbering some girl in the trailer. That some girl I think was his ex gf in real life, lol, how awkward?)
I have a 11 min trailer link but according to the site its really for film distributors and tells too much of the story and will spoil the movie.
SO EXCITED!! But it prob wont come out till next yr for us when it wins its oscar and bizzion awards. The downside of this film is that I think its going to be in Mandarin. My mandarin isnt up to scratch so I will have to join u guys and read the subtitles so sad. Unless they release it in Canto in that cinema on little bourke st? | | comments: Leave a comment |
