Lol I assume the last previous posts have been weird for people to read :S Well, I'll just avoid it for now unless I really need to vent somewhere. But yes. HOLIDAYS! Christmas is the best for holidays. I get a week off :P So far I haven't done anything with my time though :/ Well tomorrow, I'm going to Devo's card tournament- which I'm disappointed that no one else is coming, but meh, at least I get to hang out with Devo and Peta. The day after that, I get to hang out with some uni friends, which is good but a lil awkward I think. But yes anyway. So this weekend, new years eve. Hmmmmmmmm. Don't know what I should do about that. Been invited to 3 NYE parties, so not sure what I should do there :/ Not sure I can even go though, I'm sure my parents have something to say about how I should stay with the family on NYE's though :/ God why do they have to be so stupid about these things? We never do anything on these kind of days, we usually end up in our own rooms doing our own thing :/ Well I'm gonna try my luck and see if I can go to any of them >.>
New Year's resolution? Hmm should I give up on the idea? It's always nice to feel like you can start anew in the new year, but how often does that fall through? :/ Although one thing I definitely have to make sure is to do well in my final year. How scary is that?! *hyperventilates* I'm going to die next year D: I need to start thinking for possible ideas for the year...scary. I just hope the teachers will actually help out next year. Or give us good feedback to work with. The guy who's supposed to take us next year seems really strict- and he doesn't like latecomers, which is alright for me, but he seems like a mean teacher >.> Anyways. I've been typing this for way too long, keep getting distracted by skype convo. Well, type later. Jyaa.

If any of you are wondering what happened after that... well I said no. So far I've made him sound like someone I really don't like, which isn't true, but just the idea of us together is weird. According to my friend, he's "really good looking", which I guess he sorta is? I said I didn't want to ruin our friendship, and that I didn't feel the same way, which thankfully he seemed alright. Guess better late than never >.> First guy who's probably ever crushed on me (or at least told me) and I rejected him :S I felt really bad, I didn't actually think he would say anything so soon... Lol is this weirding anyone out, me talking about love? It's kind of strange for me to be talking about it to you guys, usually I talk to my uni friend about stuff like this x'D

Crap. Ok he does like me.


"because i have to come up with some type of excuse to see you (inlove)"


Whyyyyyyyy T______T

:S I seriously think this guy likes me :/


[21/12/11 4:16:36 PM] *****: you wanna come down with me? we can go do minigolf, see penguins, hit the beach, see a movie etc
[21/12/11 4:16:44 PM] *****: <.<
[21/12/11 4:16:46 PM] *****: >.>

We were discussing about christmas, which lead to him talking about how he celebrates it in phillip island. I then said I've only been there twice, but I don't remember much besides the penguins... I can't tell if he's casually asking as a friend or as something more. Those shifty eyes don't help either. So far I've managed to reject most of his offers ie. having me go to a friends house where he was staying at to bring some anime so they could watch (5mins drive away). All those little things really. I probably should say something shouldn't I? :S

501st post

Why is this true? D:

Tired?

Oh god I'm so sick of working TT_____TT I hope when I get an actual job, it'll be more enjoyable than my current one. As one of my friend's said, I'm more or less a slave atm. Poor pay and sucky hours... I'm really looking forward to the week after next week, 1 week holiday FTW! YES!! Christmas, New Year... Wow things are coming to an end once again. Anyone set some goals for the new year? Don't think I will coz I never keep them.
So today was good, I finally got some sleep. Came home around 12am last night from a gaming night, and an anime night the night before- lots of fun ^__^ So I ended up waking at 10.40ish without having waking up once throughout the night- which is amazing coz I usually wake up once or twice because of some noise. So yes, that was an amazing sleep.

Later on in the afternoon, I went and upgraded my phone plan! So I have a new phone! Iphone 4S to be exact! Woot! Siri is fun to play with X'D I asked it to marry me and it said we didn't really know each other that well. Then Rebecca asked it why not, and it said that we should just be friends XD ahaha. Pretty smart :P It's not like those online conversation generators though, so it doesn't always understand what you're asking. But overall, pretty fun to use. I just hope I don't drop it at all within the next 24 months else I'm screwed. I can't exactly switch phones either coz the sim card is different for the iphone... screw the apple company and trying to get more money out of us :/

Working

I'm not sure if I've told you guys, but if you don't hear from me, see me around online, it's because I'm working at my parents shop these holidays. They're short on staff coz they had to go pay their mother their last visit, so me and my sis are filling in for a while. So, I'm pretty much only free on the weekends. Although, I could probably still do stuff after 2-3pm during the weekdays. But might be a little tired... Can't believe another holiday has been wasted... I planned to do so much stuff, but now I can't :'( I needed to look for work experience and was possibly going to work on portfolio, learn how to animate in maya, learn afteraffects... now I can't really do any of those things unless I want to be dead at the end of my hols :(

OMG why is ebaying so addictive???? I keep seeing pretty jewellery or whatever, and then I ask my friend to help me buy them for me on ebay ><" I think she's getting tired of doing that for me now X'D She's going to help me work out my bank related stuff so I can get a debit card hahaha XD

Karaoke

:3 Yesterday night was sooo much fun XD So, I met up with my uni friends at Melb Central first for dinner, which we then proceeded to head up towards the Groove Train (sooo expensive!). Only my bestie and I got chips, which we shared, while the others disappeared off to get their own dinners elsewhere coz it was so expensive ><" One of the guys stayed behind and ordered a beer and kept us company, which we ended up talking about alcohol, anime, and some other random stuff I can't remember. So afterwards when we were all done, we headed to Strike for our Karaoke sess at 8pm. Have to admit, it started off kinda awkward, coz no one was keen on singing first. The guy who was with me and my friend before, Jack, he started it off. Thank god he was there, coz he's honestly just a ball of enthusiasm which is infectious X'D About half an hour or so in, we started to get into it, at least I did X'3 Only the twins didn't sing I think. Well, considering how much effort I went into persuading one of them to come, who didn't really want to go in the first place, I was glad that they made it. But yeah loads of fun XD I learnt of a new song- Danger! High Voltage, which I saw the music video later that night D: So weirddd. A lot of the singing done was yelled rather than sung, but that made it fun :P At one point I tried to sing high, but coz I didn't warm myself up for that, I went a bit off =.=" Embarrassing. Not to toot my own horn, but I was probably one of the better singers that night X'D At some point I was singing a duet with Jack, and he was getting so into it, that whenever I tried to do that serious singing thing, I couldn't help but laugh XD And it doesn't help when one of the twins put their thumbs up for me haha.
Anyway, after the singing session, we did some bowling. D: Oh god, I do not remember myself sucking so bad at it DX I actually did really horrible that it was embarrassing to even continue. I did manage one strike though, which I apparently did some amazing spinning thing according to Jack X'D Too bad I couldn't do that often enough :/ Ended up rolling a *lot* of gutter balls D: And to add insult to injury, I managed to break some glasses that were sitting on this mini table, shattered glass all over, and somehow, half a shattered glass that remained on the table. I have no freaking clue how I managed that. Special powers? And then I also nearly fell on the stairs as I was going back to the seats >.> Lol you could see everyone sorta leaning forward trying to catch me ><" Haha kinda nice XD Makes me feel like a princess haha. But just sort of felt embarrassed that I nearly tripped for the second time. >.>
(I realise I'm sort of rambling and probably not making much sense, and I randomly insert peoples' names who I don't think I've ever mentioned before which just adds to the confusion, but yeah...my blog my rants >.>)

So after that, we went to hungry jacks? I ended up getting a soft serve cone which was nice after all that. But pretty much after that, we all dispersed. Me and my friend went with Arend, as we planned to stay a night there coz of convenience. Ended up having Tristan join us coz his train had stopped running. So we all caught a tram back to Arend's. For me, this all felt really awkward, Tristan, is the one who I think has a crush on me. And now, it's sorta official that my friend Tarn and Arend are a couple. Well I'm the only one in our friendship group who really knows, although I'm thinking the others can sense that something is going on between them...she's actually been staying over at his for 4 days... I was kind of worried, coz I hadn't heard a peep from her. It's her and his first relationship, so I hope it all goes well for them. I don't want things to end bad, although even if they did end it, I doubt they'd be the kind to end it bad.....
God my mind is everywhere. I can't even type in a more coherent manner.
But yes, anyway, we ended up watching a movie, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and a few eps of Family Guy. After that, I went to the guest room to sleep, coz I'm such a light sleeper. Still didn't work :/ Ended up waking at 7am, meaning I only got like 4 hrs sleep. Couldn't help it though seeing as there was the whole thunderstorm and rain that was so loud that it woke me up. Eventually when everyone else woke up, we ended up watching more stuff. More Family Guy, and then eventually Tangled. Soo good. X3
But yeah, I eventually left around 4... glad I live so close by coz I think I would have fallen asleep if I took a long bus ride. And now I shall end my long rant. /rant

My calves are killing me T_T Yesterday I did about 10 minutes of skip rope, non stop (well more or less), and now my legs are killing me. I was planning to make it a daily thing to stay fit, except if my legs are gonna kill each time I do this until I get used to it, maybe I should think of another way to stay fit...

What I have planned tomorrow: KARAOKE!! YAY! Going out with a bunch of friends from uni, although the numbers keep diminishing coz guys aren't as inclined to sing >.> So roughly 5-6 people. I'm hoping it won't just end with me singing most of the time, they better get into it. I hope it won't end up awkward either. Lol and I hope no one judges my singing X'D Anyway, back to burning dvds...

It's just a little crush...I hope

I'm a bit worried that one of my friend's friend/my friend likes me =/ Ever since I've added him on skype and gave him my number, he's pretty much talked to me everyday =.= I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable about it all, coz I don't like him in that way in any way. According to my friend, she says that even one of my friend thinks he likes me -.-" Not good. I hope it's just one of those crushes that go away after a while... coz he's getting on the annoying side atm. Besides, I really don't want to ruin a friendship... I mean, I admit, I had a crush on one of my friends, except I don't think it would have worked out, as did he (my friend asked him) coz our opinions often clashed. And his twin bro apparently is really against friends going out coz he did that once or something and it didn't work out... But yeah, I guess I'm trying to steer clear of liking any friends to avoid ruining friendships and what not... Although it makes me wonder how people ever meet if you don't really start off as friends?

Hmm. I'm getting more lazy with writing up blogs now. Which is a shame considering how much I used to post... Maybe it's because I'm getting out of the house more, so I feel more tired, which makes me less inclined to write up something. That's probably it. Maybe. I dunno, I think it's also more of the fact that I don't have anything interesting to say anymore. It's either something depressing or something that has no point, just me talking about nothing in particular.
Anyway, last few days I've just been getting into the holiday mode, so doing stuff that I had set out to do- which is basically watch movies, read manga etc. Lol XD I managed to finish watching an anime series- Ao no Exorcist in 2-3 days, which was pretty good. Had elements of other animes I've seen before, so it wasn't as amazing but it was something good to watch to get back into it. Also finished knitting my beanie within the week, which has been a pain in the butt- To be honest, I don't think I'm even doing it the right way even from following instructions. I need some sort of tutor for that I think to be able to understand the terms they use in instructions. Also, I had trouble ending the beanie, coz I was using those rounded knitting needles which are connected, and I wanted to make the top of the beanie domed, but kinda failed that so I just crocheted the rest of it :/ I think I'll retry making one when I'm actually capable of making a proper beanie, coz I kinda like this colour wool :P If you have me on skype you can see it as my dp atm.
Also last night/this morning I started playing my ds after who knows how long. Started a new game coz I couldn't be bothered going back to KH:coded atm... it's always nice to start something from afresh. It's a game called 999: 9 hours, 9 person, 9 doors. It's really a text based rpg, so I've been reading so early in the morning T_T It's been hard coz I haven't been doing much reading at all, seeing as my course barely has any theory which requires us to actually read. ^^" So it took me a while to get back into it, but it has this creepyness which made me keep reading so I didn't leave it on a bad note so I wouldn't have scary dreams X'D So I went to bed around 4am-ish... man a lot of my nights are ending late now... not good. Also, does anyone else who reads my blog have skype? If you want to add me my username is: name.surname1. So basically substitute my name in there. Well anyway... signing off now.

LOTR

Man, I just rewatched the trilogy within the last few days... forgot how good it was T_T It actually makes me want to read the books X'D One thing I aim to do over the hols is to read at least 1 book. God knows when was the last time I read a book... *ashamed*

Ok, so I totally forgot about updating till just now. Phew, an hour till it reaches the next day >< I won't go into details as to what I've been up to the past few weeks, as it mainly involves a lot of stressful nights finishing my last few projects for last week. To be honest, I don't even really remember what I wanted to say. Hmmm. Well, I know I have to get a lot of things done over the holidays. I think getting some driving lessons, and trying to find a job will be my top priorities. Oh and also learning some programs/get better at using programs. Plenty of time to do that. Just don't know if I'll do it. I should have gone for that leadership program for Jap though :/ Got an email few weeks back saying that I was one of the select few who was offered it (coz I did get a HD ;P), but I didn't go for it because I don't think I'm capable of teaching other people Jap, especially since I didn't continue it :( But man, I would have loved to be able to continue Jap somehow...
But yeah, I definitely need a job somewhere, or get some work experience. I need to work on my peoples skills. I seriously lack the ability to talk to people =.=" Or at least, when it comes to presentation, I rely on others too much and let them do the talking. I really need to take charge in that area a bit more. It's like I'm the shepherd when it comes to behind the scene stuff, but then when it comes to the presentation, I'm just the person on the side :/ So yeah... next year is gonna be tough.
Oh right, I also wanted to diss my teacher again. The one who said how our websites were pathetic and stuff. Yeah... a lot of people aren't happy with him to say the least. He's been pissing everyone off this semester. Just the other day, he sent my group marks to one of my friend, who wasn't part of my group :/ And he sent an email to my group about resending our final website which was compressed as a RAR, because he couldn't open it =.= My friend said that he did mention we had to have them zipped, but seriously, how hard could it be to download a program? You'd think he'd have the program already being a multimedia teacher and all. But yeah. Not impressed.

Holidaysss....celebrateeeee. So. I definitely need to catch up with people because I've been hanging out with my uni friends just a bit too much for my liking. Not that I don't like hanging out with them, but you know, sometimes you can get sick of the same company. Probably coz we don't have as much in common seeing as most of them are guys, so they only play computer games, and me and my friend are a bit out of the loop when they start discussing. At least we have our girly things to talk about ><" But yeah, you guys, I probably have more stuff in common with. Ohh that reminds me, I really want to finish my games... it's probably been months since I've last touched my psp and ds D: I'm so sorry I've neglected you!! I just feel like I've never had a big enough break because of all the work! It's like swimming freestyle, as you go up for air, you have to go back down again :/ Wellll at least it's all over for this year. But wow, next year should be my last year!! D: Is anyone else scared if they're finishing next year???

Holidays!

It's been yonks since I've updated my blog again :P To be honest, I'm not really in the mood to update :/ Just updating to say that I'll do a proper update tomorrow. But wow these last few weeks have been so busy. Still very tired. Anyway, back to watching family guy :P

Lol so ok, my hair does not look anything like the picture that i linked >_<"

Yeah...there's me. =.= I think I kind of chickened out a bit... maybe next time? ^^" Got my sister to cut it for me. Annoying thing is that one side looks totally different from the other side because my hair is still a bit curly from my perm. So half a bob cut thing and the other half more choppy and uneven. =.=" And I wish my fringe was longer so I could put it to the side... well give it a month and I should be able to push it to the side... Wahh I want my hair back now T_T lol oh god you should have seen how much of my hair was chopped off. I have so much hair O_O

OMG I CAN'T WAIT TILL NEXT WEEK IS OVER!!! I swear to god, I'm so sick of these assignments TT_TT I need to hang out with people pronto after then! I need to see some school friends for a while... kind of sick of hanging out with my uni friends a bit =.=" Seeing as half of them consist of guys, all they can talk about is there EvE and LoL games... =.=" I wouldn't mind if I played it myself, but seeing as I don't... no fricking clue. Besides, it'd be nice to hang out with some girls, well at least more than one. And to be honest, she tends to get a bit... carried away when there are guys around?^^" As in she would easily get distracted by guys... which kind of pisses me off, especially yesterday, seeing as I was working on our group assignment, and she'd be skyping...=.=" Generally she's a really good worker, but..well guys. =.=
Anyway, when this all blows over, I think I'll start talking on skype more with you guys, as skyping has mainly happened only with my uni friends because of all the work.. I feel like such a bad friend when I see you guys online but I don't really say anything ^^" Sorry~~~ that will change when I get things done!
At the moment I really want to cut my hair again, my fringe is getting really long again (just past my nose). I'm thinking something along the lines of maybe longish in front, and gradually gets a bit shorter at the back. I'm not too sure if I can pull it off.
So sorta like this?


Probs not that short at the back but yeah... so maybe this weekend. I said I'd let Lucy do it, so we'll see how that goes :/ if she stuffs up, I have a few days to grow out a bit of hair at least X'D

I'm obviously procrastinating, but I feel like I have to update now so I'm doing something 'constructive'. OMG I have the sudden urge to play some video games T_T WHYYYY

Marks

So today I received my marks for my Ad agency portfolio. =.= Worst marks ever. 20/40. CRAP. Thing is, all of my friends didn't do so well either, despite theirs being x10 better than mine, the highest mark was 24/40 in my group. Here's an email my teacher sent around:

"I have just looked at the second exercise 'Ad Agency' and the results are very disappointing. Many of you have not passed and will need to resubmit.

Some general notes:

1. This is meant to be an ad agency - cutting edge, striking, sexy etc - most designs were just plain boring if not stupid."

That's just some of the email which I found most...harsh. I don't think it's our fault as students though, considering all the briefs we've received have been pretty vague, and it wasn't that clear that it was all about the design -.-" I mean, in class we were taught jquery (coding stuff), so natural, we'd assume that that was the whole point of the assignment.

The teacher has given us the chance to resubmit, but at this point, I'm not sure if I want to. It's stressful enough as it is to finish all these other major assignments plus a 2500 essay (which I still haven't started...2 more weeks D:). I think a lot of people were bummed about their marks for this assignment. Damn, I hope this isn't what they expect of us next year as well... I'm so dead.

Sorry for the last post... just been a bit down... probably all the hormones speaking but, at times I do feel like that.

It's so close to end of uni now- looking forward to it a lot. I've got... 4 more things to do now? One essay (really not looking forward to that one), group film project, group website project and finally group interactive story project. Done all the filming for the film thing, now onto editing. I'm hoping that won't be too hard, because it's a mixture of stop motion with actual video, so we have to edit the photos and video to keep the consistency for both...

I'm really worried about this essay though :/ "How and why did postmodern photographers seek to question the relation between photographic representation and the real?"
I could choose to create my own topic, but I don't know what I'd want to write about for photography. And I'm not sure what to look up for books either... Borrowed two books, but I don't think they're really relevant to my topic. I'm going to send an email to my tutor and see if I can get any help in that area..:/

I'm in this weird sad mood again... even some stranger could see it. Just sitting on the tram waiting to get off at Flinders, and an old man asks me if I'm alright. Am I? I don't know. I've been trying not to think too much the last few days but the same thoughts keep coming back to me. Why do I have to be such a girl? I wish I was someone else. Someone who's pretty, smart, great personality- someone who feels great about themselves without ever having to doubt themselves. Sometimes I wish people would acknowledge me a bit more, give me credit when credit is due, rather than treat me as some sort of extra person on the side who you happen to know. I don't need the spotlight on me all the time, just once in a while would be nice. I'm still here. Don't forget me just because there's someone who is more fun, smart, amazing than me. I don't want to fade into the background,becoming nothing more than an object to be used. You know what is amazing though? How easily people can ignore what I have to say, whether it be something small or something personal, anything; I'm just ignored. Or, somehow people turn it into something about themselves. I do what I do, I listen. I listen. I listen. I suppress my feelings even further. Sometimes I just think, why do I bother? Just keep it all in, no one cares anyway.

Thursday

Yesterday I had to go into uni to borrow stuff for filming. Pretty bad day for filming in general, although good thing was that my group were filming inside a carpark, so the rain didn't affect the surroundings. I think I was the only one organized though, our main prop (a chair which the bottom could be removed) that we needed, was not there. =.=" So in the end we had to substitute it with some other wooden chair and change one of our main scenes. Overall, loads of fun >_< We blew up a lot of balloons for the stop motion part- scary part was bursting them D: Freaking hell, I seriously do jump. All the guys were laughing at my reaction =.=" I accidentally uncovered my ears for one second and a POP later I jump into the air with my heart trying to jump out of my body.
After filming we started heading towards one of the guys' house, who lives just 5 min drive from me. Pretty convenient. But before that, we stopped at coles for snacks. Dear god guys can really eat. =.= If I remember right- 4 pringles, 5 soft drinks, mint pods, chips, lollies... anyway, all in all, $45 worth of snacks =.= I somehow ended up paying, so one of the guy owes me 40 bucks.( Just saying, I ended up only eating a few mint pods because I had to leave early)
So we headed to the guy's house for some gaming. Diablo to be specific. We didn't start actually till this other guy turned up around 9.30 ish. So we basically ended up ordering pizza, watching some beauty and the geek (just lol X'D) and a bit of funniest home videos before we moved onto watching some anime. Have to say, hanging out with guys is a lot of fun, although sometimes it would be nice to have a few girls around to talk to when guys go into their own zone =.= There were meant to be a few, but none of them could make it.
So when we finally started, I had no clue about what I was doing, but I chose to be an amazon as my character. Everything seemed to be ok except some of the other guys had problems with their connection. So in the end, I only managed to play about 2 minutes of Diablo before I had to leave =.= Pity, coz I was having fun slaying some of these demon looking things.
Sigh... ok, enough procrastinating, gotta go work on my interactive house and website... TT_______TT

Mid Semester Break

Wow. "Holidays" are here. Already halfway through them :/ Been pretty busy so far. Just a recap of what has happened so far.

Monday, my friend from Geelong came over to stay again for two nights. I have to say, she's probably one of my closest friends ^_^ I can literally talk about anything with her, whether it be about uni or guys or anything ><" So glad I met her, even though it's been a year and a half XD But anyway, we were "working" on our assignment, which is a modern take on beauty and the beast. Atm, it's a bit...mehhh. We're having trouble coming up with a character design, as well as drawing in a comic book kind of style. I've suggested to use actual models and just edit them in photoshop if we have no other choice. I'm thinking this is probably the road we might have to take :/
So Tuesday night, both of us went to a house party (I guess this is sort of the first time we've hung out with uni friends which was not watching a movie together), which was basically a drinking party. ^^"

We brought along costumes which will be used for filming tomorrow, so we got the main guy to dress up in it (clown costume) to see if it fit. X'D Then some of the other guys dressed up with what remained of the discarded parts of the costume. Hahaha>< So much fun. After that we went to go get dinner, and the guys were still dressed up in the costumes (lol we dared them to haha) so that was fun X'D We went to Maccas (how appropriate yeh?) and I won a free drink, which was perfect because I didn't have one because the special deal didn't include drinks. Lol I'm probably not making much sense atm, but all in all it was great fun :P We eventually headed back to the apartment, and we started playing charades XD A bit of drinking was involved (on their part) although I doubt they were drunk yet. Erm..yeah so then a few other people arrived and so we eventually began some drinking game called "kings". At this point, I guess I sort of gave into peer pressure (well I guess more like I just wanted to join in the fun), so I decided to have a Smirnoff? Basic overview of the game:
Ace- slap your face
Two- F--- You
Three- F--- Me
Four- Touch the floor
Five- Touch the sky
Six- Girls Drink
Seven- Guys drink
Eight- Grab a mate
Nine- Bust a rhyme
Ten- Choose a category
Jack- Create a rule
Queen-Quiz Master
King- Pour drink in centre glass

Erm yeah. So first time playing a drinking game. Have to admit, it was a lot of fun ><" So evil though, one of my friends, she chose me as her mate, so it meant that I had to drink whenever she did x'D Also, we had some other rule which was from last time (which I didn't go), which was that they couldn't say mine or else they'd have to do 10 push ups. Lol I think I said it myself a few times, but luckily no one heard or didn't say anything ><
Soooo.... anyway my friend and I had to leave 'early' (nearly 11pm?) from Caulfield and catch public transport back to my place. This is probably the first time I've done something so 'reckless', although honestly, I had a lot of fun. I wish I could have stayed over, except, I don't think my parents would have approved if I told them we'd be staying at some guy's place ^^" Especially if they were drunk. Haha I hope I'm not turning into some party girl... :S

Just wanted to share a lol moment with you guys~ XD Yesterday during class, I was admiring this drawing that apparently one of the girls did (who were presenting). They were international students, so I asked one of them in Mandarin if she drew it XD And just lol- the reaction I got from them XDXDXD I think they were really surprised that I could speak Chinese XD Especially this one guy, his face- just LOL XD Oh god XD I think he was full on surprised and his mouth gaping open and then he started laughing. Ahh this is what I aim for in life~

Omg things are starting to get a bit hectic now... STRESS STRESS STRESS. I want to explode. I have to say, working in a group is becoming a lot harder than I thought... I usually like working in groups because the workload is shared, and it's usually just easier. Except this time round, I don't think anyone is really into it. Got 3 group projects atm, one haven't progressed at all, the other, the guys are really lazy, and the one I'm working on right atm, my friend is just a bit out of it. Usually she is a hard worker except lately we've both kinda in that mode where you just can't get into that mood to work. All this stress is making my skin horrible too =.= God I hate my skin. Why can't these projects be easy?? I also need to think about my website... D,: No clue about that yet. And my essay... wanna cry now TT__TT

Frustrating

I said I was going to post my list of assignments at some point and I will. But first, I have to get some stuff off my chest. ASDFASDFACIC WEM RC!!!!>!!@$o o Really *really* crappy scores for my recent assignments. CRAP. I realized my clock would be a lil below standard, but it was too late for me to change it when I realized that it wouldn't work out. And then my eye simulation. #@$&!!!! Honestly thought it would have scored a bit better... but no. scored 4/10 for professionalism. wth. Everything was functioning before I submitted, it pretty much worked when it was demonstrated in class- the only criticism the teacher had in class was that the eye function part was a bit over the top (I already knew that but couldn't work out the as3), and that he doesn't like text justified for reading information. Ok, fine. But overall, I thought it was a pretty clean look, looked nice. Where the hell did I go wrong??? We were also meant to submit it in a html file, but I assumed it was meant to be uploaded to the net... so when i clarified that with him, he said to just reupload the link, which didn't work for some reason, and he knew that... Yeah I'm really hating this semester. Big drop in grades already and these are only the first projects. Thank god they're worth a little... just means i have to score really high on my other assignments now TT______TT

Assignments= 7
-2500 essay on a Photography topic- 55%
-Ad agency portfolio template (website) - 15%
-Research blog -10%
-Educational software, which might be available as an app but not sure yet- 60%
-Experience design, possibly an interactive comic at this point, haven't decided yet- 50%
-Interactive house map, basically will have the function of showing how much electricity is used within my house -30%
-Film, probably the only assignment I'm looking forward to at this point, although it's getting hard to understand what the rest of my group is looking for- not sure what this is worth


So I think these are all the assignments for the rest of the year. Might not seem like a lot to some, but let me tell you, this is... enough to kill me =.= If I knew what I was doing, this would have been a lot easier.. At this point, I'm worried about the assignments that require me to do coding ie. interactive house and the ad agency. I've said this once but I really suck at coding. Really. The logic behind it all... just... I'm not a very logical person when it comes to stuff like this. Please just please let me do well for the rest of the year. This semester has been depressing enough as it is.

It's really kind of scary when people find out something you don't want them to know.

Happy Birthday to Me

Just want to say a big thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday :) Really means a lot to me, definitely feeling the love :D To be honest, I think I've said this before, but I don't like celebrating my birthday. Honestly, it actually gets me a bit depressed. I didn't really do anything today- slept a bit, stayed in bed, watched 3 movies and then went out for dinner. Pretty boring I guess. But it makes me happy when people care enough to send me a message saying happy birthday :)
Received a bit of bad news though today- I really wish my sister didn't tell me today. Apparently one of my cousins has liver cancer. Definitely a cool kid, I really can't believe it. Our family has been relatively healthy, don't think we have much history with diseases... just can't believe it. I'm kind of scared. My grandma will be going back to look after him next week. At the moment she doesn't know that he has cancer, she only knows that he's very ill. Despite complaining about her a lot, I'm really worried how she's going to take it. She's probably a bit excited to go back to china at the moment; I really can't stand it. I'm not actually supposed to know about all this, but my dad told my sister.. and she told me. I don't know how to feel...well I guess I feel kind of depressed now. I just hope he'll get better soon.

Have I ever mentioned how awesome you guys are? No? Well you guys are. It makes me happy thinking that there are people who care enough about me to bother reading whatever I have to say. Honestly, sometimes I wonder why. But whatever the reason, I'm glad. Just knowing there are people there for you, really has kept me going through the last few years.
You know, within the last few years, I've made friends in the most random ways. I was discussing this with my friend today, really funny><" Once I was looking for my class (back in first yr), and I spotted this girl who was lugging around the same big folder I was, and so I asked if she knew where room blah was. Lol>< Now we're like best buds^_^ Another, I met at a rmit interview, funny how well we got on>< I then asked for her dA account, and we pretty much became good friends. Haha. Pity I don't see her often; would have seen her at manifest if I decided to go but oh well.
Ok, another one, met through MCAC forums (uni's anime club). A final fantasy fanboy XD Lol kt, you should meet him and talk to him XD Big RPGer.
Last one that I can think of- basically I accidentally waved at some guy who I thought was this other guy in a lecture><" Smooth.
So yeah, that's how I make friends >< Lol I have no idea why I felt the need to tell you guys this...

Oh! Also. Bad habits. Don't you hate it when you're aware of you're own habits, but can't change them? I.e I tend to tune out everything/everyone when a conversation does not interest me. Take today for example; some guys were talking about who knows what, and then one of them says '...like mei'. Which always ends in me asking what on earth they're talking about. This has happened on so many occasions... probably should pay more attention to my friends at uni, but when they start talking about their computer games... =.=" just no.

Ok, sorry for rambling on about nothing in particular today, just..procrastinating from doing my readings... so not fun.

PS- be prepared for next blog entry- you're going to be bombarded with me complaining about my assignments next. You have been warned ><

Hrm. So last week was pretty cool. Got all my projects done and submitted them on time :D:D Which led to a pretty lazy weekend XD I ended up staying up late on Friday, up to 4am SaturdayO_O I don't think I've ever done that, if only once for Vis com. Reason? Lol.. I was talking to these guys for our film project. This resulted in a lot of links to random clips and such.. haha >< have to admit, it was a lot of fun. In the end, we didn't get too much done. We said we'd skype the next day except when the time came, he said he went over to a friend's place to play street fighter -.-" well he did txt me telling me that, except i didn't check my phone. So we decided to meet up at one of the guys place, which was fun^_^ Guess what we did? Haha. I arrived first, so we just played little big planet 2 (which was actually more fun than i expected, coz I've never really tried playing it on my psp ^^"). After that- hmmm... we started watching some anime ^__^" Lol.
We had dinner, and then watched FMA movie, Conqueror of Shamballa. Haha>< Eventually we decided to get down to business, which was around 8 or 9pm maybe? I have to say, the final idea that we came up with... erm. I'm just going with the flow, because I have no particular objections, just hoping that this will be good enough for film class. I think our idea would be fine for our normal multi classes, except I don't know how my lecturers think about this sort of humour. Anyway, basically our idea is based on this song from Newsgrounds, a song about willy wonka. There will be a guy sitting on a chair, lip syncing to the song, dressed as a clown (?) and there will be random intervals with stuff happening. So to sum it up, I barely know what's going on. But it'll be a lot of fun a expect. Not sure about the sense it makes, but meh. A lot of films don't make sense these days.

oh god this is too sad. I am currently in my lecture room, waiting for class to start. I've waited for nearly 3hrs now TT_TT Thursdays are the hardest days for me- wake up 5.20am, uni starts at 9, finishes at 7pm TT_TT It would have been better if I didn't have such a large gap, and that I had at least one person in my tute... So far for all my tutes on friday, I've been close to falling asleep. The tutor is nice enough and all, but her voice is not engaging enough that it's more like a lullaby to me when I'm already dead tired. Also, today, for some reason, I woke up at like 1 or 2am feeling really awake. Why?? And I felt like singing. Also felt hungry. And I also had an anxious feeling building up. Took me probably an hour to get back to sleep... I think I'll be extremely happy when uni is over.

(sorry for complaining, but I'd rather complain to people in person where they are forced to listen to me xD At least you have the option of not reading this haha)

"It was as though the pipe [attached to the derrick] was secretly sodomizing some hidden technological orifice, and causing a monstrous sexual organ (the fountain) to have an orgasm."

This is just some of my reading. Oh god all this reading is making my head explode. Trying to read as much as I can (with no success- this week, 4 readings, 2 of them over 20 pgs long each!), and a lot of it means little to me. I hate how we always have to go back into the past, and try to understand other people's take on photography. People nowadays, there must have been some similar opinions right? Why do we have to read a ever long, ever winding passage on some guy's view on photography???

Eye Simulation

This is what I've made for the past few days... not perfect though :/

Drought

There's been a recent drought in blog posting hasn't there? I'd blog more, but hectic hw and stuff just keep piling up. I'd just end up raging about my homework. Which I would do right now, except I'm tired, and feeling pathetic because I can't get my actionscript right. I think my last post was a bit over dramatic, but still, I guess these past weeks haven't been great. Ok, now I have to go to sleep. Night y'all.

I think I'm slowly falling back into depression or something.. Everything seems bland, unexciting; I'm having trouble focusing/concentrating on any particular thing that I'm starting to struggle a lot with my homework. I also feel a bit disconnected with all my friends- at times I feel like I'm being ignored but when I do get any attention, I just don't feel like communicating. I really don't know what has gotten me into this slump but I wish it would just end :(

OMG don't you just want to eat this??

I'm currently in a horrible mood where I'm snapping at everyone who annoys me in the slightest. This week has been the worst. I lost my phone on Wednesday, which really sucks, because I actually heard my phone fall, and I checked the ground (and I couldn't see anything and thought it must have been the person behind me) to then realise a few hours later that my phone was missing. I looked everywhere, even went back to the bus stop and then it hit me that that sound I heard was probably my phone. So I called it and sent a message to it, which I got a reply. I thought, great! I can get my phone back tomorrow at park and ride, just gotta get my sister to pick it up for me. But. BUT. Apparently they didn't have it. ?@#! So I then decided maybe the guy/girl hadn't handed it in yet, so I'd go the next day and see for myself. I asked the guy at park and ride, and apparently some guy and girl came the day before and claimed my damn phone. ahcn;f;aiuerv;nuwievrcai!!! How the HELL did they claim it??? Why didn't the people check and make sure that they weren't lying??? Like maybe ask them to list some people in the address book??? Anything!!! Honestly I don't care much about the phone, but more of what's on it. It holds so much, all my messages, notes, photos.... and some random has access to all of it! Some creep could be looking through all my stuff and who knows what! If their plan was to steal it, I hope they have the decency to just delete everything. Or maybe even return my phone. Why the hell would you want my crappy phone anyway?? It has scratches all over it, and it stuffs up a bit too. Needless to say, you can tell I'm pretty riled up by all of this... also doesn't help when I start thinking about uni... Honestly don't think I can pass this semester. Teacher was right by saying that last semester was a breeze compared to this semester. Also wondering if I should change out of my theory class- I'm stuck with a bunch of fine arts students which is the worst, because they keep referring to all this stuff I have no clue about.. God I need to get out of here.

Today I was watching a movie, The Departed, starring Leonardo, Matt Damon etc. While I was watching, I was thinking how familiar it was to this HK movie, Infernal Affairs I watched a few weeks back. Well, as the movie went on, it is was looking more and more like Infernal Affairs. I looked it up, and found out that The Departed was an american remake of it. What are the odds of me watching something, then watching the remake in another language? Haha. It was still good, although the ending was a bit different. Although I think I prefer the HK version. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes watching action-y movies. Basic overview of it: Two guys- one raised by a bad guy, the other sort of normal childhood. The guy raised by the bad guy joins the police force as an undercover gang member, while the other guy is hired by the cops to be an undercover gang member. It eventually becomes a race against time as they each try to find each other before getting caught.

I've got a girly question for you guys. What would be your perfect romantic scenario to fall in love with someone? Has media affected what you're expecting? Personally, I like the idea of falling in love with someone who's been a friend since a young age. Sort of like Kudou Shinichi and Mouri Ran in Detective Conan at the moment XD They're so cute. But yeah, what are your thoughts?

Wow I've been lazy. Last post was around 2 weeks ago... eep. So things that have happened: parties, meeting up with peeps anddddddd.... grades!!! Can I just say that I'm surprised??? I honestly did not think that I would do that well... first time receiving a HD, let alone 3 of them! XDXD Lol guess what I did best in...? Jap. Trust. It helps if you have some prior experience with the language deshou ne? Haha. Honto ni yokatta. I know this streak of luck will end this semester though, I have a theory unit, and some technical stuff called navigation GUI thing... Just the name is suss.
Currently stuck with a cold which struck a few days ago, started off as an innocent itchy throat which later developed into a horrible mess. Eurgh. I'm so pathetic when I get sick, seriously. I literally can't do anything properly. I wish I could go watch Harry Potter movie... I envy everyone who's seen it so far. You know, it's funny how I always miss the big group things. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not but I usually miss out on them :/ One reason why I'm so out of the loop.

I need something to do right now. Lately I've started watching anime again after months of not watching any (watching an ep or two at janet's doesn't count), and I'm slowly getting back into it. Instead of starting where I left off with other series, I started a totally different one. An anime that has more than 600 episodes no less o.O Haha XD Care to make a guess? You probably don't know it but it's detective conan. I have a thing for mysteries if you don't know. I like how they challenge your thinking even though some of the times they don't make sense, or there are some sort of inconsistencies. I think it was probably because of all the HK cop shows I was brought up on. I thought it would be cool to be a cop. I sort of still think that because I like the idea of action, although that doesn't really happen in day to day life. Yeah. Probably something you guys didn't know about me. Huh.

Quick post to tell you guys I'm not dead. I've just been really reclusive the last few days because I've been watching stuff. No animes yet unfortunately because I can't get back into it still :/ So I've been watching some other stuff (fairly odd parents and friends if you must know...yes I am ashamed), but while I've been doing that, I've continued with my cross stitching which I'm close to finishing. Probably a day or two before I finish it I think. Hmm what else.... Oh, I was wondering if you guys could help me out here. I was invited to this party on the 1st, and was wondering if I should go? It's at night, and around South Yarra, so it's a little inconvenient to go. Also, I don't really know this guy that well, and there are only a few people I know, and I we always end up in awkward silences as well... The guy hosting said he could allow a max of 10 people to sleepover but that is just even more awkward. I'm thinking I shouldn't bother going but I don't often hang out with my uni friends except for this one girl :/ Saddd.... Sometimes I wonder why I'm a design student... I totally do not fit the stereotype well.

Sour Kiwifruit

Does that title make you think of it? XD Sooooo..... I finished yesterday!!! Got my Jap exam over and done with!! Can't believe I can just relax now x] It wasn't too bad, but overall, I'm not sure how I went. I'm also hoping that my lazy attempt to write 4 sentences to some jap pen pal won't fail me. It wasn't exactly something that showed off my vocab or anything. Just 4 simple sentences. Coz, as I realised how close I was to the end of the exam, I was ready to stop. Concentrating intently for an hour and a half is not my thing. I certainly get things done, but... well I'm an art design student? XD
I'm hoping these holidays will be filled with lots of fun, hanging out with people and stuff. Which is rare to say the least. I've changed so much since starting uni; I can tell. I actually look forward to the future and what it has to hold now, unlike a few years back when I would think I wish it would all just end... But like I said, I'm looking forward to the future :D

Today I handed in my last assignment for the semester, which was a 10 min documentary. Glad to say that it didn't turn out too bad, except there are a few imperfections which I had known about, except could not be stuffed to fix. So needless to say, the teacher picked up on that. (We had a screening of all the documentaries).
What's eating me now is the what I said about someone else's documentary. It wasn't bad per say, really just constructive criticism. Except I only really stated the negative stuff, stuff I didn't really like about it etc. Damn it, why do I have to be so blunt sometimes?! Why couldn't I have said some nice things like they have some good cutaways or something? But nooo I only list all the bad stuff...-.-" I feel so horrible now, worst because they're international students, and I sort of feel like I should try and support them or something. I felt so bad that I even sent them a message saying how sorry I was for being so harsh. >.<"
I don't think the teacher should ever ask me for feedback :/

Bored to death

I've been working on my Jap revision, but my notes are limited, and not very useful. I guess this means I'll have to take a look at the textbook and learn from that. I don't know if it's me being obnoxious, but I feel that I know most of it, at least I think I do. Which is not helpful because it makes me just that more lazy to go and revise.
So because I am sooooo bored out of my wits, I'm going to spam you guys with some links.

The last two are flash mob videos so yeah... I would love to witness one on a big scale. >____< That would be so cool!!
Does anybody have skype or something? I'm so bored lately... can't believe that uni has taken up so much of my time that I don't even know what to do anymore:/ It's resulted in me watching movies pretty much everyday. Not even anime o.O Which is bad because I've still got to finish so many series... ahh why don't I feel like doing anything anymore??

Lol I just watched the breaking dawn trailer... >_< Haha the sex scene... seriously. Why the hell would they put that in the trailer? Doesn't that put people off?

OMG I am so frickin' happy XD I've just finished the documentary with my friend, which is has taken too bloody long. She came over last week and stayed a night, and then came back this week on Monday and ended up staying over for 3 days -.-" Not that I hated it or anything, but it's kind of hard to provide food, bed, etc for 3 days when you aren't even prepared for it. And it got kind of cramped in my room, and my room is small to begin with. And she kind of snores as well lol. But. WE'RE FINISHED!!! You have no idea how happy it makes me >_< I just hope that the teacher will like it, and see how much effort we put into it. Coz, for one of our other classes, we totally got smashed by the teacher who criticized the group video we submitted (which was essentially edited by one person because we all made our individual edits and chose one in the end).
Also! I got my mark back for my flash game! A distinction!! Woot!! I don't know how that happened, but yes! Those were some stressful nights involved. Admittedly, I had help because one of my friend gave me his flash file and I worked around it (but he kind of got that off someone else too...><) so I somehow managed. Phew.
..I did get back my marks for the screenplay turned short film :/ Not that amazingly great. 29/40. If it were just that one mark extra, I would be ecstatic. Just...29? Not a nice number. And I didn't even get feedback for that assignment either. Damn him. Damn all multimedia teachers. They never ever seem to give any feedback.

Lately I've been downloading vids off youtube because I've been so bored. Downloaded Charice's Louder MV.

I really like this song. Also the MV- typography! Haha>_< Would be so cool if I could have done this for my Life so far project at the start of this year.

Yesterday, my friend from Geelong came to sleepover at my house, which is the first time that I've done that. We had to work on our documentary idea, so it was just easier if she could stay over rather than go back at the end of the day to Geelong -.- So tomorrow, I'm going to be in Geelong, filming her aunty, who we plan to interview on topics like motherhood and stuff (feels too vague...) and then I'll have to come back to Melbourne after that. It's really hard to come up with questions. We don't really know exactly where we want this interview to go, so I think we decided on something similar to human interest story (eg. Oprah?) kind of feel. I wish we were given a specific brief, rather than something of your own choosing; a lot of our uni briefs have been vague in all areas, except for the IT subject. Stupid design courses. They seriously lack a proper structure and good feedback. They're really wishy washy. Sort of good in a way that that might be what real clients are like; they often don't know what they want. But it wouldn't hurt to get some constructive criticism while they're at it.

God I think I'm getting old T_T I have the urge to look up old chinese songs. I want to sing karaoke to these songs. I really am one of those people who like to live in the past I think. Nostalgic feelings... especially remembering those nice sunny summers, awesome springs, cool autumns... I don't know why things feel so different now, maybe climate change? But these kind of things don't seem as awesome as they did a few years ago.

Everyone busy studying for exams? Good luck! I'll be relatively free, so if you want to catch up, just give me a call :P Need some way of occupying my time anyway... this week and maybe a few days of next week will be the only time where I need to concentrate on my homework, and a few days before the 16th for my exam... I think I'm talking in a really weird rushed way that I'm not making much sense for myself. Oh well. That's for you to read and me to write. Hahah.

You know what I'm scared of? Saying the word lol. In real life I mean. I'm not saying if others say it, it's a bad thing, but it makes me cringe to think about how much the internet has affected me. I think I might have said it once in my life out loud. Oh the shame. I really don't want it to become part of my vocabulary. I've been close to saying it many times actually, a lot of the time, I think I'm still stuck in my online mode :/ Sad sad sad. I should get out more...

Damn my teacher. He has the time to send an email to the whole class but not reply to my email?? Grr it'll take him less than a minute to answer... >:(

Thanks for the encouragement guys:) Except I've kinda given up on it. I can't make it work properly. T__T Here's a picture of the stuff that I have to go through:

I barely understand all that by the way. There are only a few components that I can't get working, mainly stopping the movieclips from popping up after 60 seconds when it ends the level, getting the score on the next level page to show up, and I think lastly is the negative points to work. There were other features that I was meant to include, but that's kind of impossible with the current state of my game. Eg. losing the game in the final level if you get hit by a spitball, creating difficulties etc. So many stuff that I've left out. I really want to know how the IT students go; this should be their territory so I bet they managed to get their stuff sorted.

Here's the link for my crappy game: http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1306391806

You won't be able to hear any music because it's meant to be linked to a folder with all the sound files. I'd embed the sounds in, except it would increase the file a lot so... but anyway, music 2 was meant to be the music that kt helped compose for me :):) big kudos to you kt! x]


So just before, I was curious about the twins friends list. I wondered who had more friends. Who would have thought that they pretty much have the same amount of friends XD 527 and 528. Lol.

At the moment I am really really tempted to give up on my flash game. Honestly, I don't really know what I'm doing, and I have around 2 days to figure it out. So far I have characters popping out of different places except I don't know how to keep track of score, timer and a few other things... Why couldn't the faculty just give us a walkthrough on how to do this? T__T I don't think I'll actually finish my game at this point, so I'm feeling less motivated to even attempt doing the things that I can manage to make.

Does anyone else think it's kind of awkward when you send someone a friend request on facebook and then they don't accept/decline (which I then usually cancel the request), but then around a few week or so later, they send you a friend request? -.-" It's not like I even really talked to her in class since I sent her that request, so I wonder what changed her mind? I only sent it because I thought she was nice when we were doing that student exercise thing in class a while back. Bah.

XD My seminar teacher just replied to an email few minutes after I sent him it. Lol you know what he said? He was impressed by my hard work! Very nice of him to say that, although sadly it isn't true. Also said thanks for helping my friend who is currently still in a wheel chair. Hasn't been easy for him I'm sure seeing as he misses out on a lot of the classes because it's inconvenient. But that email made me smile. Hopefully I won't disappoint him tomorrow in my Jap oral! XD

You know what's really funny? When people keep assuming I was born in China. Sometimes you can tell people are curious and are somehow led to believe that I was born in China. Sure my appearance may suggest such, but judging by my accent (?) I thought it would be hard to mistake where I came from. Even some of the chinese people think I was born in China... Personally I think it's strange, seeing as I'm always hanging around people with other ethnicity, and I'm constantly talking in English... not trying to stereotype here, but a lot of chinese exchange students tend to stick with their own if you know what I mean.

Because I am so awesome, last night I was having fun painting my nails. Result:

Wow I have chubby fingers... But yes, watermelon. The green is a bit messed up because I didn't let it dry long enough, so it kind of has fabric imprints in it.
Ok just now I painted the white bit to make it look more like a watermelon x] lol I really should go eat breakfast...

In a weird mood today. I think today was just one of those good days. So very rare XD And I'm feeling very sociable at the moment. Except no one's online really... Dang maybe I should have gone to that party. Except it's one of those drinking at the pub kind of party. And I'd just stick out like a sore thumb in a place like that. One of the guys called asking why I wasn't there. I said I was meant to be doing work. Lol I should have said I was doing work. Bah. Slip of the tongue. I think the guys were probably bored because they didn't really know anyone there. Another reason why I didn't go I guess. Don't you hate that? Being in a place totally unfamiliar with strangers? And you have to make small talk to people...urgh. I just suck at being nice.

Listening to green day's american idiot. It's got me feeling all pumped. Waiting..waiting.. stupid final cut pro hurry up and finish rendering my file already! Hmph. I'm hungry. Good news! Apparently the mark for the video I'm currently editing (the blooper one) is a group mark! So whatever we submit together as a group will be our mark! We only have to make our own edit to show that we know how to use final cut and that we've contributed to the group... yay :D Really happy about that because I don't think I'll be able to pull off something decent for that class. And there's this girl in my group who's already done a bit, and it looks fantastic! Don't think I could top that. Oh you know what's really hard? Finding music. Especially for video projects. Usually there's some sort of flow/story in films right? Music should follow it right? At least that's what I think. Music can help build a story. But I have no clue what to use. Sigh....

Blooper

Lol this is one of the bloopers from filming... lol I totally ruined that XD Don't judge me!


(This took forever to upload...remind me next time to compress the video -.-")

Last few days I've been meaning to make a post because I've had a lot going through my mind, except now I can't remember a single thing. First off I'll just say that I'm less stressed knowing that I've already gotten all the filming done for the projects due next week. All I have to do is edit, which I thought would take me forever, but judging by how I work, I could get all of them done in two days. Sweet. Next I have to think about my Jap oral, which I'm a tad worried about. I have to say 10 things about a trip. Trip. Hmm the only one that comes to mind is the china one, and that was nearly half a year ago. Would it be alright if I used that? And I'm worried how I'll form these sentences; can't ask the teacher to check over it because it wouldn't be fair. Kt if you're reading this, any chance if I could run it by you on Saturday? :D And I really don't know what to say. Last year I went to China. It was fun. It was very busy.... yeah I'll have to work on that. And try memorising them too... you'd think that after a semester of Jap, I'd be able to fluently say stuff without having to look stuff up. But I feel the need to constantly check if I'm saying it right or whatever...
Yes ok my file is nearly finished rendering so I'll leave it at that today. Oh and go check out my vid mmd bad news on fb and give me some feedback? :D

Apologies in advance because I think my next few posts will be about me stressing about my video work as well as my flash game.

So, yesterday, woke up realy early (5.30am) because I couldn't sleep due to how nervous/worried I was about everything. Eventually headed out to South Yarra, to go to some guy's place I just met two days before :S My friends were late because they slept in or whatever, so I arrived first. O________O Just wow. I didn't expect his family to be loaded, because he house was bloody massive. Like the one's in the movies. And they have lifts. Lifts. Seriously. He gave me a tour of the house, which was pretty cool, although it doesn't have any of that warmth feeling like a family home. (no clutter I guess XD) So when most of the guys turned up, we ended up on the couches and just sitting there bumming out and being tired (although I was kind of freaking out because I thought we should have been doing something..) and ended up waiting till my other friend came. When he did, we started setting up, moving furniture around etc. Honestly, I don't usually do any of that stuff; lighting, directing- I really don't know how the light should hit the wall and stuff. I wouldn't mind working behind the camera, I think that'd be fun, but I already had the job of the interviewer, so kind of not possible. For some reason this time around, I kept stuffing up my lines, despite the fact that I was reading right off the script. I think I was put off by how good our new actor was. XD We were able to get a full run through of the interview without having to stop. The only thing I could complain would be that we didn't get any shots of the interview on different angles. I think that would have been one of the fundamental things that you'd need, but I guess I could work around it. The guy also does this awesome 'old spice' act. >___<
We actually ended up finishing a lot earlier than I thought we would- around 6pm. I thought we'd end around 11pm because their shoot they did the day before went till then. Thank god it didn't because I wouldn't have a clue as to how I would have gotten home without having my dad to pick me up. So, we then ended up watching Source Code, which had its similarities to Inception I think. I didn't think it was great, because I was still confused for certain aspects. It makes sense, but then it doesn't. How can some guy recreate a world with his mind alone? It was like he was predicting the future in a way, how does he know all the possibilities? Confusing sentence is confusing.
Crap, it's nearly 9pm and I haven't studied at all for my Jap listening tomorrow.... Ok signing off.

Having no luck with my game scripting atm :'( I think I'll be close to breaking down if I don't start getting things out of the way. I really just want to give up and kind of yell at people, but that won't do any good.

Reading these messages on this site: http://letterstocrushes.com/ So cute. It makes me wonder how many of these hold true for me. I just wish I could skip ahead of time though and see what the future holds for me...Wish I could just get lost in thoughts of love and not have to worry about anything else. But with reality, I have to be realistic. 不过。。。有时侯，我真得想真心爱一个人。我想有一个人我可以靠近拥抱一下，不用想那么多事。真心爱一个人可以永远得到幸福吗？我真得想知道。。。

EDIT* lol I just found this one hilarious...

Read the first reply.

So the doco yesterday.... erm. It was an interesting doco I guess. I would have liked it better if they didn't have to strip halfway through the interviews. But the creep who has pretty much next to no respect for women, and the guy who watches porn on 6 monitors in his car just... wth man. Eurgh. And most of the guys looked normal, I wouldn't have expected some of them to be the type who'd do that kind of stuff. That kind of scares me.
In other news, the last few days of filming have been a complete, utter waste. Yesterday, we were trying to capture the film onto the computer to then realise that lo and behold- no audio! Crap. Fuck. WTH are we going to do??? We actually said on one of the days shooting 'did you turn the mic on?'. We were so relieved when we found out that it was on, but because the camera was shoddy, it made a filming all blurry and probably screwed up the audio jack too. Now we have to refilm tomorrow, although I have no details as to what's going on at the moment. Why did this have to happen???
*EDIT
Now all my other class films are in jeopardy. WTH IS THIS HAPPENINGGGGGGGGGGG. Filming the week the project is due, and filming possibly two days before the due date, with me editing. WTH PEOPLE. THIS IS GETTING WAY TOO CLOSE. EVEN I DON'T THINK I CAN HANDLE IT, AND I CAN HANDLE A LOT. /shoots self

Filming

God I am so tired of filming T_________T Today went to uni around 9.30am, and we finished around 6.00pm... So many bloody takes.
We started off having a lot of problems with lighting, we had to move the furniture and basically clean up one of our members apartment. Sorry to say this, but she's really kind of pissing me off now. She really is hard to work with. She's quite bossy, and likes to be in control, but so often she isn't present when we need some input or something. Same girl I was talking about last time for the screen play... anyway, the rest of the crew have been around filming while she was off doing something and didn't come back till around 4.30pm... and we were getting a bit tired and restless ourselves because our friend kept messing up his lines... and I was getting really annoyed myself because I was the 'interviewer', so I had to keep repeating my questions. We knew he was trying hard, but he kept laughing, or just stopping because he stuffed up. None of us made too big of a deal out of it, as we can understand that it is a lot of pressure when you have a whole bunch of people watching you, you're half improvising and reading off the laptop screen. But when she joined us, she kind of just slept on the floor while we continued working, and kind of burst out complaining how hard it could be to say the line. Sure, the guy was making a lot of mistakes, but I don't think she has the right to say something like that, especially all the other harsh things she said. And yes, I'm sure you probably could have done a better job, but you weren't exactly there now were you? If we chose her to be the actor, I'm sure we'd have ended up waiting for her again...
There was this awful moment as well, where my friend asked if the mic was on (this was probably around 4-5pm ish). I had a heart attack right there man, I swear to God, if that thing wasn't on, I would have given up for the day. Thank God it was though. Seriously. But there are so many things that aren't up to my expectations, and I'm hoping, *hoping* that all the footage that we took is good. I'm just a little worried how all of this will turn out... honestly, it's probably going to look like one of those shoddy student films rather than something decent...
Really just in a foul mood now.

How on earth do people manage to stay still enough to study? I'm finding it very hard at the moment, and it's computer work for goodness sake. I'm more or less done I think, but there are some bits and pieces that I have to add in for good measure. (Doing my flash assignment btw. Adding sounds). You know how hard it is to find sound effects? Really hard. They either cost money, or they're really crappy recorded sounds. And sometimes, I just don't know what type of sound I'm looking for. Like, I can't assign a full on orchestral music for a close button now can I?

So today I watched Black Swan. It was not scary as everyone made it out to be. I was under the impression that it was some full on scary scenes or something, but it wasn't. But it sure was weird. Those hallucinations that she keeps having would be pretty scary I imagine; bordering on reality and imaginary events, and you see Nina slowly losing her mind... wow. I won't say anything else, in case I spoil it for anyone who wants to watch it but it certainly was an interesting film.

Next week for friday's film class, I'm wondering if I should go. My teacher plans to screen a documentary on the pornography industry. -______-" He said it was a little confronting, and the ending is pretty much a porn scene (but he'd skip it unless we wanted to watch it LOL), and honestly, I'm not looking forward to it. God he shows the weirdest films in class. We just finished this movie called The Magician, which is about this hit man who kidnaps this guy but filmed in a mokumentary sort of way. It's pretty good I think in terms of portrayal of the main character, and how it feels so realistic that you actually do kind of believe the events that take place. Some of the scenes are quite random though, there's this one scene where you see the hit man and the kidnapped man just sitting at a bench table in a park, eating some burgers.
Although some of these movies/documentaries that have been shown in class are interesting, I honestly don't think it'll catch on like my teacher said. Unless people are able to produce a good story, I don't think a lot of people like watching poor quality video footage and crap audio. The only kind of big budget mokumentary I've liked was District 9, but then again, I love watching those end of the world type of movies haha.
So right now I'm going to head off and watch Inglorious Bastards. Let's see how that goes then.

Movies

Soooooo... last few days I've been watching a few movies to keep me going. So far I've watched Up, The Lion King, Corpse Bride and today I watched Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. I hadn't seen any of them except for the lion king (which I haven't seen in years), so it was somewhat refreshing. Up was so beautiful, I loved the narrative at the start- so cute!<3 All of them were fun to watch, I can't wait to watch all the other movies I have planned XD Does anyone have some more movies to suggest? I just want to increase my film repertoire so I have a better grasp on the industry. Pity I can't use my anime/drama knowledge because mine's quite extensive xD

Today I went to monash clayton campus for the first time. Oh my god that place is huge. o.O This is where all the funding is going seriously. So I was there to hand in my form for the free study tour to Japan. So excited >_< Just imagine! If I get in, I get to go to Japan!!!! One of my dreams! Honestly probably not the best time to go (with the disasters that have happened); Japan is probably still going to be rebuilding itself again. Also would have wanted to be fluent in Japanese too... lol I'm talking like as if I'm already chosen X'D It's probably really hard to get into though... I hope my current level of jap won't put me at a disadvantage? Also my academic record... not bad but not great either. GPA currently 2.5 because it dropped a bit because of last year's web authoring -.- I wish we could resubmit the academic record after this semester- I know I've done better this semester D: They said they won't judge academics, but then, what are they judging on?? Well, I guess all I can do is wait.

EDIT*- oh crap apparently only one person will be selected from Monash. o.O So even if I do get selected, I'll be alone D:

Soo tired. Just saying now, I will be continuing the typing in chinese thing, but only occasionally. Right now, I'm not really in the mood to think in Chinese.
Sooooo... yay I'm not doing my screen play :D:D Good thing because it would have been hard to film I think. So I joined another screen play instead. It's more of a comedic film thing, so it's not too complex. We have 4 people per group, each member with a specific production role. I ended up as editor (god knows why -.-") although I think I would have preferred being the storyboard person. Well I guess being the editor, I have the power to cut out what I don't want, so I can remove any parts I don't like XD I'm a bit worried about my friend (who's the storyboard person- there is some technical name for it but I can't remember) how she might approach this, because I think there might be some unnecessary zooms of random things like the hand opening the door (to show that the couple has entered maccas) etc.. Also, she kind of broke down today with all the stress that she's been dealing with... honestly I don't know what to do in those situations. I suck at comforting even though I'm relatively close friends with her, what can I say? I know how she's feeling, and I tell her that she needs to take things more slowly and stop putting so much pressure on herself; I'm glad there was this other friend of hers who helped out and took her to the bathroom... Sometimes I think this makes me a really bad friend... Sure I understand how a person might feel, but I have no way of making them feel any better. I personally would feel better if I was left alone, but that's not the same for everyone.

And I think I might need to start planning what I need to do in these last few weeks of uni- so apparently I do have a Japanese oral, and that I might have to reconsider doing Jap as an elective to do something multimedia (which I really don't want to)... one of the units that I'm doing well in too... received above 90% in all my class tests, and got 89.5/100 for my mid semester. And I barely have to do much revising for Jap, which is a bonus. (not trying to sound so conceited XD) Also have to think about all 3 video projects which might become a bit of a problem depending on time... and also that big big problem for my game. In the lectures they don't teach you any of the actual coding for how to make the moles pop up or anything- what the hell am I supposed to do with all this other stuff that you've taught us but I don't even really want to put it in my game???
Sorry for this crap load of ranting but it's gotta go somewhere.

Oh- also I'm going to apply for a free study tour of Japan near the end of the year XD All expenses paid, just have to write up a 3000 word essay and do some presentation. I would totally love to be given the chance to go, but what are the chances? I'm sure a lot of people are going to apply for it too. But it definitely would be a good experience.

Hello~ Been a while since my last post. So for the last week of easter, I've pretty much wasted my holidays by rewatching dramas. It's the only way for me to feel in touch with my asian side XD I actually want to continue practicing orally speaking chinese more often, but there's no one I know who speaks it besides my parents and the shop workers. So it's quite limited, and really not that great. I'm actually thinking maybe I'll try typing chinese for some of my blog entries. I think that'll be fun to see how far I can go with that- although I might have trouble and leave some words in pinyin if I don't recognise the character. ^^" So I'll just try that now....
现在我想给大家看这个MV。 我觉得这首歌很可爱，我有一点影像我小的时候听过这首歌。这首歌是很除名，其实我赶赶听过在 My Lucky Star 里面。 一边打中文字一边想我应该说什么挺难。-.-" 我真的不知道我因该说什么。算了， 我就讲完了。

Some of the lyrics
对面的女孩看过来 看过来 看过来
这里的表演很精采 请你不要假装不理不采
对面的女孩看过来 看过来 看过来
不要被我的样子吓坏 其实我很可爱
寂寞男孩的悲哀 说出来 谁明白
求求你抛个媚眼过来 哄哄我 逗我乐开怀
我左看右看上看下看 原来没个女孩都不简单
我想了又想猜了又猜 女孩们的心事还真奇怪

Rough translation-
the girl over there is looking over here, over here, over here
the performance here is amazing, please don't pretend by ignoring
the girl over there is looking over here, over here, over here
don't be scared by my looks, I'm actually very cute
(?)boy (?) , say it out loud, who would understand?
begging you (??) come over here, treat me well, (??)
I look left, I look right, I look up and I look down, actually no girl is that easy
I think and I think, I guess and I guess, girls' feelings are really weird

(The question marks are the parts I don't really understand/can't read so I have no idea what it means. And this is a really rough translation so excuse the lack of proper sentences and stuff. It actually sounds a lot cuter in chinese than my crappy translation XD )

Wow that was hard. Sometimes I feel like I know how to say it in my head, but I can tell that it's not the proper way to say it... I feel like I have a lot more vocab in my cantonese, but can only think in mandarin when it comes to looking at characters. I think that's probably because cantonese has so much slang in it... I was really hoping to improve my chinese though. Man this is going to be hard.

Quiet...

Sorry if I'm boring people with my narcissistic, self related posts; I guess I don't have anything better to say. And sorry that my posts become extremely long. I guess it represents how long I actually think about the matter. I really wish I didn't over think things so often- it'll be the death of me.

Screen play

I kinda regret saying that I wanted my screen play to be one of the screen plays produced... It's a lot of work, and I really suck as a director. I want to be with my group of friends except we're only allowed 4 people per group...
So yesterday in class we had a practical lesson in my film class (first one). We started off by doing exercises like breathing exercises, making faces, funny walks etc.. (did you ever do this janet??) for pretty much half of the class before we begun.
We were then to choose which screen plays of the 9 screen plays Cam (teacher) selected, which would be used for the workshop. Few people offered their screen plays up, and I wasn't one of them, but Cam said that mine could work -.-" So we ended up with 4 screen plays, mine included. Sorta felt rejected because none of my friends would be working with me, but I guess I can understand why? In the end, I only got two people to work with me and Cam volunteered to be part of my screen play... errrr...

Let me just show you a part of my screen play shall I...?

"STRANGER looks down where MAN has placed his hand and looks up at him. She smirks at him and slowly slides his hand away allowing his hand to run down her arm. She turns around and heads into the crowd but turns around to look at the MAN with the same smirk.
MAN grins and follows the STRANGER deep into the crowd, slowly losing sight of the STRANGER. Finally he loses all sight of the STRANGER and he frantically turns around in circles in an attempt to find the red dress. A hand is placed on his shoulder; he turns around to find the STRANGER's face a few centimetres away from his own. He grabs her around the waist as she places her arm around his neck; they engage in a passionate kiss as they sway towards the blasting music. "

So that would mean Cam would be the MAN. Crap. I felt sorry for whoever had to be the STRANGER....><"
Of course, we wouldn't actually show that part of the scene, because I'm sure the Uni has some sort of rule against stuff like that... XD
So I had two international students working with me, and a Michael Keaton look-alike. Awesome.

(This photo actually looks just like him XD)

It didn't go too bad, although I had to say, Cam kinda looked creepy. -.-" He's expressions were pretty spot on in terms of being a sleazy guy trying to hit on a girl, albeit a bit over exaggerated. He would put his arm around the int. student's shoulder and do a close whisper thing... Eek. ><" At that point, I was really glad I wasn't the actor. I commend the girl who managed not to freak out or anything.

So, now I'm debating over whether I should use my screen play or not for my assessment. The girl who played the STRANGER said she would like to do my screen play, but that would mean looking for actors and stuff -.-" And I really don't want to in charge of my own screen play...*sigh* I would rather be the 'sheep' than the 'herder' in this case. I'm not familiar enough with the behind the scenes of how stuff like this works, and being told to direct my screen play is just... Eek what do I do?!? kind of feeling. God I wish my friend was back from Thailand already... well she'll be back tomorrow so I guess I can discuss that with her then.
Also... there's this girl in class, who I can tell wants to work on her screen play, except I'm not very keen on it either, but she's kind of you know... I need people for this, and I'm sort of.. well.. I want to check out other peoples' screen plays because I couldn't hear them in class last time -.-" A bit mean of me I know, but at the moment, I personally don't think she could handle becoming the director when she has so much stuff going on in her life. There are so many times when she leaves the class early or answers a phone call in class... I think it's hard for everyone to try to get along with her sometimes... it's not like I hate her or anything but sometimes shes a bit overbearing and a bit of a know it all kind of personality. Damn it.. did not mean to turn this into a bitching session... So I'll shut up before you judge me any more.



(Anyone want to read my screen play? XD)

Something that I want

There's this artist that I admire on dA, who draws some really pretty copic marker pictures ^3^ She's released a book a few months ago, and it's only for a period of time (which I think has/might be ended?).

http://myrollingstar.tumblr.com/post/4678222944 (cartoongirl7 on dA)

There's something really nice about her art, she uses really nice vibrant colours that bring her pictures to life.

Also love this artist called yuumei on dA. Her artworks always have a deeper meaning, and she always has something to say about the current world issues. One of my fav artists on dA.

Oh and another dA I love is teh-akuma-yoru XD He's this guy who writes comics about pokemon, naruto, and mainly his real life. God I find them hilarious >_______< He has this way of telling his story and showing the expressions perfectly. Hahaha XD

You know what, I just remembered something. My mark for my video. Agifjefiojeoiw; is very annoyed. I only got 70 which I don't know why. The general response in class when we were viewing them was pretty good, the only thing the teacher really criticised was that I shouldn't have put a zoom out because it made it redundant, wasted time, and that maybe I should have made it more faced paced even though the whole idea of it was based on sloth.... So I pretty much don't see why my video was marked so low. My friends managed to score around 75-77, and I'm just curious as to why my one is so far off. I'm not saying they don't deserve it, it's just that I thought my one wasn't that bad, possibly the same standard as them? I dunno... I think my teacher is into those really wacky filming... The movies he shows us in class... Gummo and Trash Humpers? Thank god we never finished watching them because they're crap. And he thinks it's genius. Maybe I just like the conventional ways of filming rather than the different... but we just started filming, it's not like you dive straight into the deep end right?

You know, I think I'm gonna give up on recounting my trip to china. It takes forever to type up again, and honestly, I don't think anyone gives a damn ^^" I guess I'll just keep it in my memories and hopefully remember all the good times in my later years... orz ^^||

Out of curiosity, of those who have been brought up in a cultured family (eg. chinese, greek etc), what do you consider your first language? I've always been unsure and usually say English, although I don't really think that is the case. I think I might have started English at kindergarten. Sometimes I feel that I am at a disadvantage because I don't participate much in all the Aussie culture and stuff, and have no clue what certain terms mean, or perhaps certain issues or basically anything in general. But then again, I'm a lot better off than those who moved to Australia to study, so I don't want to 'tip the scales' or anything. I'm just wondering what I should pick for future reference.

Now that I think about it, I don't think the teacher would choose my screen play. I mean, I've got two actors who are meant to be passionately kissing; I don't think anyone in our class will volunteer for that XD But the feedback that I got was generally good, which is a good sign ^__^ Now I just have to wait for the marks to come out, and see which screen plays he picked so we can form our groups already...

Oh yes. My list of stuff that I have. Okay, what I list now will be incomplete because I can't be stuffed plugging the hard drive in. So I'll base it off memory, and later I'll edit this post.

Some I would suggest watching (not including the ones that most of you guys have seen): Fullmetal, avatar, K-On, D.gray man, inuyasha, my hime ,Khr (just the first 3 arcs?) and maybe air gear.

A lot of them are an excellent watch, I suggest them in the order that I've listed (from best to "worst"...or maybe start with the worst and build you're way up?). It's a lot to watch but I really do love re-watching them. I could seriously pick any random episode and just watch and still be into it. I think a lot of them though start slow, so you'll have to see probably more than 3 eps before you get to the good parts? Yes. Anyway, will update the rest of the list when I get to it.

Still writing up my screen play *sigh*. Hopefully I should be done in an hour, seeing as it's due tonight 11:55pm. What a stupid due date. Who makes homework due on a weekend? Well I think I know the reason why it was due on that date; our teacher needs to pick some screen plays which we will be use as the real deal on Tuesday. So scary. o.O It would be cool if mine got picked, but I'm not hoping or anything XD I'm still annoyed that he's made me do nearly a 360 on my screen play, but there is some fun in writing one up I must admit. Although I don't think I'd ever choose it as a career. The thought of someone picking apart what I've worked so hard for is quite depressing.
Lol I swear, writing these entries are so much easier and faster- why can't we do something like this for a screen play? Haha XD

(Oh guess what? I've finished all the coloured parts for my cross stitching!!! XD All that's left is the black chinese characters and I'm done!!! So probably be done by next week..hopefully.)

The world of action scripting is a cruel world... a Child gets removed from a Parent...

Today was good^_^ Bought 3 things (usually I'd buy a ton of badges, but this time I didn't!) One volume of manga (FMA- yay!), a little keychain dangle thing from K-On!, and lastly, a KH merchandise!(Although it was cloud, but that still counts!Would like Sora or Axel next time though XD) .

When I came back home though, it started pouring. Annoying because I didn't think to bring an umbrella. Also realised that I lost a bra strap. Which is why I hate this de-attachable ones. Lol probably tmi but yes, I'm annoyed at that.

LOL crap I did not know that I've watched so many animes O_O If you count the ones on FB, apparently I've watched 42 animes? And that wasn't even a complete list of what I've actually watched... Yikes. Maybe I should stop....

Feel like my blog's kind of dying atm :(

Sometime this week (or next week), I'm gonna put a list up of movies/dramas/animes/music I have just so it makes it easier for all of us. So if you ever want something, just say the word and I can give it to you. As for the movies, I'll probably have to exclude a lot of the movies we actually have, because a lot of them would be my dad's downloads, and the titles are usually chinese so I can't tell what they are -.-" Just letting you know, this will probably be a very, *very* long list? And don't judge me XD I can't help it that I have so much time on my hands. Well, did anyway.

I'm so excited (and I just can't hide it!)

I am super duper excited at the moment!! XDDDDD Just finished my action scripting game thing, which I'm kind of proud of because I suck at it so bad XD I had trouble trying to get this pop up box to appear to show that you've leveled up, and it leads to the next stage. It was basically a repeat of what I've done in class, but you know, once you're out of class, everything seems so much harder. Half the time I don't get what I'm really doing, I'm just following instructions. But I think something clicked, and I kinda understood what I was doing. I'm so glad I have friends who are actually good at action scripting though, it certainly does help XD
I'm kind of worried about how I'll put the action scripting in for the actual playing part. What I've done is basically create the visuals and the navigation GUI prototype (basically creating a way to navigate between all the pages). I don't know if what I've done so far might be affected by the coding for the actual playing part- what if I can't actually click on a student because the table is in the way( or something like that -.-")?
Also I finished my ident! 30 sec video of my friend being 'sloth'. I don't think I'd be a great editor, but I thought it wasn't too bad. ^^ I'll show you once I've handed it in.
So both of those are due tomorrow... Now I just have to write up my screen play (preferably by tomorrow so I can get it checked first), and revise for my jap mid semester test >.< Oh god I hope I manage. So far I've been sorta able to keep up with jap without having to revise much, although I really need to go through everything again just to make sure.
"toshokan de benkyoushimasen ka?" Do you study at the library? I think that's right? I really need to go over the particles... -.-"

(ps. I am also super excited for Saturday's Supernova!!! Best reward after weeks of hard work!)
