This year I decided to do the 40 hour famine. I've never done it before so this year I decided to challenge myself :) I actually thought I'd do pretty well, considering that I don't talk much at home. But nooo... I think I accidently talked about 20 times, and that doesn't even include the number of times I whispered too loudly. It's because I kept forgetting I was supposed to be on a famine. Hehe.
It's really magical actually. Before I used to talk without thinking, but now that I can't talk, I actually think about what I would have said in my head and a lot of times, I realise how ridiculous things sound and how they would definitely offend some people. It's hard for me to notice these things when I'm constantly blabbering.
So far I only have $24.35. That's pretty bad, but it's probably because when people donate $2+ I get really scared and I reject them. It's weird right? But I don't want people to feel like I'm forcing them to donate. So I'm happy with it :)
P.S. should I go to my year 10 formal? :\

A Life Planned for Me
So many things happened to me recently that I don't know where to start. Actually, of course I know where to start. It all started with year 11 subject selections.
At first I had no idea. People started talking about it ages ago, and for me, well... I kinda evaded the subject. The thought of planning the future never appealed to me, especially as I have no interest in anything practical that I cab go down the career path of. It wasn't until this week that I finally started thinking about it. What should I do? What can I do? What is there to do?
You see, what ended up as the real problem never once crossed my head. I've always thought that I would have too little things I want to do, because there's nothing I like apart from the creative type of subjects like textiles. But no, what happened was the exact opposite. I had too much. I personally wanted to do legal studies, Chinese and textiles, which I thought would be perfect. Not too stressful, I like everything, and if anything clashes I'll just go with biology.
But my mum's interference changed it all. I was suddenly overwhelmed with decisions and plans made for my life by someone else. You know the saying that asian parents can force you into doing things, well I think i'm beginning to get a gist of it...
Basically, long story short, after much arguing and crying, I finally put down my choices 4 hours 47 minutes before the deadline. Legal studies, chemistry and Chinese. My mum also wanted me to replace legal with economics, but seriously i cannot cope with two subjects that i have no interest in. So there is only one change, but considering that textiles was the one I wanted to do the most, it was a pretty heartbreaking decision. You never realise how precious something is until you lose it. For the first time in my life. I completely agree with this statement. So to the boys and girls out there, enjoy your life while you can.

Party Animal
It was my friend Elizabeth's sweet sixteen party yesterday. BEST PARTY EVER!! I was so sad when I had to leave :( But you know, I didn't want to let my mum freeze in the car. Especially after she picked oranges and lemons for my friend's parents. She's Asian like that.
So let me tell u about the party. I was the third to arrive, after JL and Sheree who went in one car. We explored her house, which was pretty different from what I remember (I've been there in year 7). She had this really cool red sofas which added a great 'pop' of colour in her living room and some great asian decorations going on.
Then more people came so I started snacking from the food table and kept snacking as people set up games. We played Scattergories while waiting for Vanessa. Then she joined me because I sucked so much I had to put Obama for 'things you can find in the desert'. Then we got so much better; in fact our scores doubled each time - 2,4,8 - 14 altogether. Sarah+JG ended up winning the game.
We ordered pizza and Elizabeth's mum also got Turkish pide (which was delicious!!). There was so much food prepared also like chips, fish, etc. Anyways you know how when you go to other people's houses you're meant to be polite and constrict yourself in eating. Well I did the exact opposite. I ate (soorry Elizabeth)...
We then played Cranium. It was sooo fun!!! It wasn't like a normal board game. We got into groups of 3 by random and I was with Elizabeth and JL. The game had us on our feet and we had to do everything from drawing with our eyes closed to acting out movies to shaping playdough into different objects. But our group also got a lot of boring ones like answering questions or unjumbling words. It was still so fun!! I swear I need to get my hands on that game sometime.
Cranium was so fun that it wasn't until 9:15 when we finally ate the cake and Elizabeth opened her presents. We got her a Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume set with a million samples and a Calvin Klein makeup bag/wallet, a Rimmel bronzer, a really big and long happy birthday marshmallow letter thing, an alarm clock from Typo and a bunch of photoframes with the Olympic ring colours where we put photos which contained precious memories inside. Overall I think we gave her some awesome presents, which are sure to break my wallet. But you know, it's all worth it in the end because I think she liked it.
In summary, such an awesome party. Had heaps of fun. Came home with a party bag too and a kiwi lipsmacker (my first lipsmacker btw). Anyways, happy birthday again Elizabeth! Congrats for turning 16 and you should get your L's soon :)

5 pizzas pieces(had to try every flavour),
2 pides (chicken inside was too yummy to be true; didn't look like this btw)
3 cups of coke (chicken pizza was pretty chilly so I had to cool myself down)
one garlic bread (smelt too nice)
fish schnitzel (thought it was chicken)
and a bunch of chips

9 Kpop Stars/Bands I LOVE
Hehe I've changed this question. The original one was '9 Places I want to visit', but I'm not a big geography person and travelling the world seems like a pretty tiring job. So I figured this one is more me :)
First I'll start off with bands. Have to admit I am a bit YG biased :D Just warning you.
9) T-ara
I love their music! Especially because they have kind of ballad-like songs instead of those cutsey type. I really don't like those music videos where everyone is just pretending to be cute... Got to know them through Eunjung who played a role in Dream High. The MV below is awesome!
8) Psy
This is so random but he is just so funny!! Must watch his latest MV! It's hilarious!!! Not the usual kpop you'd expect.
7) Miss A
Love the music, love the way they dance and sing, love their all songs. Pure awesomeness~!
6) Se7en
Usually I don't like solo artists but this guy is just too funny to pass. You should check him out on strong heart. He tells the most awesomest stories!! Also his aegyo with TOP. OMG!! XD And his girlfriend is so pretty. They both star in the mv below :) It kinda depicts their real relationship at one point at one point in their lives, when they were too busy and tired and on the verge of breaking up.
5) JYJ
I prefer DBSK when the five of them was still together but what can i do... Anyways I love JYJ!!
4) 2NE1
Lots of swag, awesome voices.VERY awesome style. Music is very catchy by the way!! And their live performances are awesome because it sounds exactly the same as the recording! I love you~~~
3) Big Bang
You have to admit they are not the prettiest group of boys but seriously, awesome just purly awesome!! They are hilarious in variety shows, the best at performing, and my favourite kpop band atm. I think you have to really understand the art of kpop to like them though :)
The next two are my ultimate biases Kpop stars as of 25 July 2012 :)
2) Park Bom (2NE1)
Best voice ever! Trust me after you hear you sing you will be drawn in. She 's like a living doll. And she loves to eat! Almost always caught eating on camera :) She's a little chubby sometimes but always so cute! And she has a very funny personality. You will know what I mean if you watched 2NE1 TV Season 2 XD
1) Micky Yoochun (JYJ)
He is my profile picture so yeah of course he is my favourite! The surprising thing is he's been my bias for some months now, which is really surprising because it's usually always changing. Could this be true love? Haha :) I know he's not exactly the best looking guy in the world and I'm not sure about his personality but something about him just draws me to him. Yeah I would love to meet him!!!

Last Day of Freedom
Just finished cooking dinner for the family. Hehe can't believe they trust me with their food. I only trust myself when it comes to eating. :)
Today is the last day of holidays before Term 3 begins. I'm not looking forward to school that much, since during the holidays I kinda slept to much so ill probably sleep through my classes.
On the other hand, I am looking forward to seeing my friends again. I didn't go out much this holidays. Well I did, but not with friends. You see my mum tends to like to ground me for the first two-thirds of the holidays which is when all the fun happens, then when she does let me go out everyone's already tired from going out too much so then I become a loner who shops with herself, which is a what happened today. I bought some cool stuff though :) Gotta love kmart. I got a pushup bra and some shoes which were super cheap.
The only thing I did with some friend was karaoke, which is a habitual thing every holiday. But I think I'm getting sick of it. It's not as fun as before because we keep singing the same songs. Think I need to go with some different people next time.
Yesterday I spent the whole day surfing the internet, updating myself with my friends' blogs and comparing their awesome life with my non-existent one. Sigh...
I cut my mum's hair today, which was actually pretty fun. You must be thinking, wow your mum trusts you with her head? Yeah, because otherwise she would do it herself and believe me it's better when I do it. I also cut my own but it didn't make much of a difference.
So that's that for the last day of the holidays. Tomorrow it will be hello school and goodbye freedom.

Deep deep thoughts
I don't usually share ultra deep thoughts and emotional matters on this blog because those are much more personal and sometimes those things are better to be kept in your own mind. But today i figured I might as well because it is my blog so I should post things I want to post rather than things others want to see. Probably going to regret this soon so let's get it published before I do.
Recently I've had a lot of thought about my relationships, especially my friendships. I don't know if you do this but when I watch Korean reality shows like Full House with SJ or 2NE1 TV, I try to figure out who is best friends with who and those type of things. I also try to figure out (this is kind of mean but) who gets left out the most. Then I kind of relate it to my life and the people around me and what type of roles we each play in our friendship groups.
Kind of unrelated to what I was going to talk about but I've had a lot of thought about what kind of role I play. I think that in the past I have been trying too hard to make other people laugh that I've sometimes forgotten how to have fun myself. This may sound ridiculous but just like what I've told some of my friends, I enjoy making people laugh more than laughing myself. I think most comedians would feel this way. But why do I do this? I realised that the reason is I wanted some particular people to like me better. I really wanted a friend who I could confide in and become friends forever with. But I should have realised ages ago was that I have made a vital mistake. I have placed my love in the wrong people, and ignored those who have always been there. I thought I was happy, but at the end of the day I always have this empty feeling inside me, because I've changed myself for someone who just doesn't and won't ever feel the same.
It sounds like I'm talking about love but really, I'm talking about friendship. I think sometimes friendship can make you cry harder than love.
So from now on, I'm going to hunt for a true friendship. I'm also going to try and find the old me, the person who can be herself and laugh from her heart. It's going to take some time, and I might not be used to it, but i will try.

FashUp Fail
I know I haven't been posting videos on Youtube for a while, so yesterday filmed one. It had such nice lighting, background and everything, but guess what? I forgot to turn the mike on. So basically I filmed a 20 minute silent video...
Kind of very sad because it was a nice video and I made some quirky jokes. Also I filmed it on the balcony for nice lighting. Imagine all the stares I got... :"( It's not really a balcony. It's kinda like indoor veranda if that makes sense.
I'll try to film it again I guess. But since it's a haul I'll wait until I get some more stuff. And I read on one of my friend's blogs that she wants to make Youtube videos. Yes you should!! It would be so fun :)

10 adjectives to describe myself
I'm determined to start this serious of posts that I found really interesting to read on my friends' blogs. So here's the first one, 10 adjectives to describe myself from the top of my head, 5 good and 5 bad.
#10 Psychic
I know this may be hard to believe but seriously, I think I'm a little psychic. Except my psychicness comes in a different way. As in whatever I think is going to happen, it never happens. So e.g. when I think I'm gonna get really good for a test, I never do. When I think I'm gonna get really crap however, I get pretty good. Things never happen the way I imagine it to, so now I can kinda be psychic because I know if I think it's gonna happen, it probably won't.
#9 Un-filial
Not something I'm proud to admit but I'm not all lovey-dovey to my parents. I know that it is a tradition of Chinese people to be filial to their elders but I guess I am a not-so-good exception
#8 Helpful but unhelpful
I like to help people. That sounds so cheesy... But I do, esp at school. I always offer help when I think people need it. Like last time, the textiles room was dirty so I helped the teacher clean it up without being asked.
But I can also be unhelpful. According to my mum, apparently I 'don't have the eyes for things'. Basically it means that when I try to help, I make things worse. Last time I was told to push the bins back for my elderly neighbours after the rubbish truck came but i accidently pushed the wrong one that hasn't been emptied. So my neighbour had to live with a full and stinky bin for another week...
#7 Imaginative
I think I have a pretty good imagination. For instance, I can imagine all my friends naked. No joke.
#6 Million-timer
Can't seem to get my bias straight, it's always changing, esp when it comes to kpop stars. One thing I'm disappointed with myself now is my love for Yoochun is slowly disintegrating...
#5 Trustworthy
People say I'm untrustworthy but I say I'm trustworthy. Because I'm trustworthy when it comes to those very important things. Like if you have this deep deep secret and you tell me, I certainly won't blab it out.
#4 Tend to love others more than they love me
Enough said
#3 Talkative
I am VERY talkative. Sometimes I talk just for the sake of talking. What that means is I'm attention-seeking. I think everyone likes attention sometimes. Also when I don't talk to the other person, I feel like they would be very bored. So yeah, I keep talking.
#2 Curious
I'm a very curious person. I reckon my ancestor was the one who opened that Pandora's box. If you plan to tell me something and stop in the middle, I will probably die of curiousness. Sometimes things aren't even that interesting but I just feel like I need to know.
#1 Bipolar
This can be a good thing, but it can also be bad. I'm a very happy person at school and social events but alone, I'm very quiet. I've heard this saying that people who talk a lot at school are quiet at home and I think this is completely true. I mean after you spend all that energy you have to take a rest some time.
#10 Psychic
I know this may be hard to believe but seriously, I think I'm a little psychic. Except my psychicness comes in a different way. As in whatever I think is going to happen, it never happens.

10 adjectives to describe yourself
9 places you want to visit
8 people you
treasure the most
7 dreams you want to achieve
6 memories of your childhood
5
qualities of your ideal guy
4 ways to make you happy
3 songs you dedicate to 3
people
2 major achievements of your life
1 thing you want to say to
everyone
Next on the plate... Vicki
Some of my friends have been making posts on their blog dedicating songs to friends. I figured sinced my blog is supposed to be 'dedicated to food', I will dedicate food to them. So I will now attempt to describe my friends with different foods and post these as they come to my mind. Today I will begin with Vicki because it's the first one that came to mind.
Vicki = marshmallows
One word to describe Vicki would be 'cute'. Two words to describe her would be 'stress-ball'. Marshmallows are cute and squishy, and suits her very well. BUT. Yes, there is a but. She's not just cute and squishy, there is a deep and dark and twisted side within. Therefore, I hereby announce her to be...
Marshmallow with dark chocolate filling

| Something like this but reversed. So the marshmallow should be on the outside and the dark chocolate inside. Cos you know, the cute is side is on the surface but the dark side is hidden inside ;) |
Food Glorious Food
Recently my dad went to this food festival thing with his friend. Aiyah, should have been there...
 |
| First time I tried instant to go food.*licks lips* |
 |
| Not a big fan of dark chocolate but have a feeling Sheree would like this |
 |
| Thought it would taste nice but had absolutely no flavour... Aiyah, guess I could never become a fan of healthy food... |
 |
| Food glorious food! |

My future
I don't know exactly what I want my future to be like, but I know what I don't want. I don't want the future me to live with boredom and looking forward to the weekend even if it's only monday. I don't want to have a job that only earns money but doesn't earn my interest. I don't want to look like the people I see on the train every morning.
I want my life to be a rollercoaster. I want it to be full of up's and down's, very exciting and each day lived to the maximum.
You know when people used to ask you 'What do you want to be when you grow up?' Well recently I've been getting a lot of that, but the only difference is they don't say 'when you grow up' anymore. Because I have already 'grown up'. Yes, without realising, 16 years have flew past, and I am already considered to be an 'adult' by my parents. It's already time to decide on my electives for year 11, my HSC subjects, and my future.
But the truth is, the future seems like a blur. I can't see it, can't touch it, can't even imagine it. Many of my friends have an idea of what they want to do, but I do not. There is no occupation which I really want to do, not the ones that can earn lots of money anyways.
I think I'm more interested in fun jobs. A typical smart Asian would go for doctor or lawyer, but here's what I want to try in life:
ACTRESS
Very unlikely... The most I've gotten so far is a minor doctor role in my friend's school movie project.
VOICE ACTOR
My voice can be manipulated to create many different sounds and characters. But this job earns low income and is very tiring. Also it's hard to even get in since there aren't many needed.
MANAGER OF A CELEBRITY
My mum actually approves of this. But i don't think i really want to do it, it's more like I just want to have a chance to mingle with the celebrities I like... Plus you need high organisation skills, which I lack in.
TEACHER
Probably the most realistic one out of my dream jobs. It would be nice just to live a very simple but fun life teaching kids, having the holidays and spending it with my own family and earning wage that is enough to sustain my living. It's nice to earn money, but i don't really mind if i don't have that much money, I just need enough to look after my family and a little bit left over to spend on yummy food and shopping sprees.
Yeah, so as you can see, my dream jobs are all very unrealistic, except for the last one. By this age I suppose I am supposed to be mature enough to come up with realistic and practical career options such as dentist or lawyer, but I guess I'm just a child trapped inside an old body and a mature face. Aiyah...

A Clown at Heart
Since the beginning of the year, I've been working on a fancy dress costume for Textiles at school. When I was deciding over what pattern I wanted to use, I chose something that suited my personality and something I would have fun making. This is the pattern I ended up getting:
I decided to do that one in the top-left corner because i thought the colours were really nice and looked very fashionable. After 1 term, here is the result :)
I think it's actually the best thing I've ever made so far. I've never really loved any of the things we made in Textiles before - summer dress: i don't like dresses - pyjamas: i don't wear proper pyjamas - bag: never will use in my life.
But this time the costume turned out very nicely and I had a lot of fun in the process of making it :) Which proves what I have always believed - you have to be passionate in order to do good.

Strange Dreams
Me: Do your legs hurt?You: No
Me: From running through my dreams all night?
You: ...
Recently i've been having many strange strange dreams. I have plenty of strange dreams all the time actually, some are very gross so i will not be making them public. But recently all my dreams have been kpop-related. Some people say all dreams have a meaning. Mmm, i wonder what mine mean.
Dream 1
Some night last week i had a dream involving Donghae and Siwon from Super Junior. They were selling pancakes at a pancake store and many people went there to greet them and get their signatures. I was one of them.This is what happened.
Me runs to the counter
Me: OMG SUPER JUNIOR! Can i please have a signature?
Siwon: Sure
Donghae: You must buy pancakes first
Me: Ok i'll buy one
Donghae: No you have to buy a box
Me: Do i have to?
Donghae: Yes
But the pancakes were so expensive! And if i buy a box i will be broke. But after much talking i decided to buy a box because i really wanted their signatures. All this time Siwon was giving me this sympathetic look while Donghae stood his ground and asked me money for the pancakes. So I ended up buying a box of pancakes, becoming broke but getting their signatures
Dream 2
I had this one last night. I was in the shopping centre i think and for some strange reasons in front of the dollar store there were celebrities sitting on chairs one behind another. They were all Chinese celebrities and they were all really famous. One of them was Hangeng!! He also used to be in Super Junior. He had his bleached blond hair going on and looked really hot! A crowd formed and some broadcaster person started introducing the celebrities. Everyone cheered so loudly for all the celebrities but when it came to Hangeng i was the only one... :S So i was very sad but so glad i got to meet him!
Then for some reasons we went somewhere so he could give me a signature.Then we started talking.
Me: Omg I'm so glad i got to meet you! I've always wanted to meet you. You are like my great inspiration.
Hangeng: I'm so glad we got to meet too! It's the first time I get to meet a fan i already know.
Mmm so in the dream it seems like me and Hangeng know each other already. That's so cool!! I wish it's real. But you know what's cooler is that today I just found out Hangeng dyed his hair to blond again for his upcoming album. Yay! Can't wait :)

The Most Disastrous Shopping Adventure
Let's start from the beginning. My friend Van was having a sweet sixteen party and it was a masquerade. Yay!! So excited because i've never been to a masquerade before. But i didn't have anything suitable to wear. If you know me, you know that i do not wear dresses. Therefore i do not have dresses. The only pretty dress i have is the white ruffled lace one i wore to the Junior Dance. But i can't exactly wear that again. So i decided to buy a pretty dress that suits me to wear to Van's party.
First i went shopping by myself. It was actually an accident because i was meant to go to my primary school to get back my work experience form but they lost it!! :( In sadness i decided to go shopping but my friends already left so i decided to go shopping solo. It's actually very efficient when you do that, even though it is not as fun. I walked around the shopping centre for many hours in my school uniform but couldn't find anything :( Finally i saw this one dress. It was orange, it had black lace details and it suited my figure and personality. I really liked it. Yah~ But me being the cheapo that i am decided to bargain with the shopkeeper. When she didn't budge on the price i left the shop thinking i will find something better. Yep, very smart choice Marie. On the train back home i sneezed three times.
I started planning out shopping trips with my friends. After much arrangement we decided on a date when everyone could go. But i got sick! NOOOOO.... But i still need to find a dress! So i went out to my local area and had a look at the stores there. I was able to find a $4 dollar dress - it fitted nicely! So on the same day while coughing and sneezing i decided to take a train to go to this shopping centre to get a mask there (the same shopping centre i went by myself before). So i got the mask that was silver and looked so grand and i went home feeling very happy.
But when i went home and tried on the dress with the mask, it didn't match! The mask was too overwhelming compared to the dress... :'( So i felt really sad and kept thinking about what to do. I finally made a decision.
The next day i went to my local area again and returned the dress. Shopkeeper was very nice and gave me a refund even though they don't usually give it. Then while coughing and sneezing i took a train to that shopping centre again and exchanged the silver mask for a less grand-looking one. But the lady wouldn't let me because the mask i wanted to exchange for was worth less than the silver one, and that wasn't allowed. So after much talking i managed to convince the next person in line to combine our purchases so i didn't have to buy something else. That was embarrasing... Then yay off i springed to buy the orange dress that stayed in my mind for almost a week. The shopkeeper must have thought 'Haha that girl again'.
That's the end of my series of unfortunate events. It happened with the intention of saving money, but it actually burnt my pocket even more. You see if i had bought the dress and the mask the first time i saw it, i would have saved 10 dollars of train fare and more than 4 hours of precious time i could have spent sleeping and recovering from my cold. Aiyah... I feel so stupid.
But everything turned out fine because yesterday at the party i received compliments for my dress. Yay! So nice having friends :)

Happiness comes from friends
You might find yourself below.Warning: contains exaggeration.
Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don’t even remember leaving open.
Good thing I have a bad memory.

| Marie check out my cheese and biscuit filled mouth *pokes tongue out* You don't like it? *pokes tongue out again* |
 |
| Yes Mary, i will help you with science. But i might be wrong. What? You have faith in me?... PRESSURE *dies* Oh no but i need to help you with science! *revives* |
 |
| Marie i'm so bored. Let's make out! |
 |
| (so cute!!!) Mary, please hold my (millions of) folders and wait patiently outside the train station toilet for me |

Update
Haven't blogged for so long VERY EXCITED =D This is going to be a 'currently' update.
Currently stressed over... half-yearlies
But it's ok. Hakuna Matata is my new favourite phrase. It means no worries and it's from Lion King. I want my life to be hakuna matata, so i can be happy and live each day to the fullest.
Currently frustrated over... making derpy faces
It's so fun and funny and i seriously do not want to get too many wrinkles as i become older. At this rate i'm seriously going to be the wrinkliest person on the planet by the time i'm 30.
Currentlydisappointed with... Rooftop Prince
I love you so much Yoochun that's the whole reason I started watching this drama. But i feel like it's dragging on and getting just a tiny bit not-as-good-as-when-it-first-started. But i still love you Yoochun :) i will finish it because i really want to know who killed the Crown princess and if Li Gak and Park Ha ended up together ;)
Currently sad over... the emptying of my 'Jar of Intelligence'
My jar of smarties from a friend is close to empty now but she says no refills :( It just wouldn't be filled with intelligence if i were to buy the smarties myself if you know what i mean.
Currently impressed with... Infinite
Don't know why but Infinite is the only korean band I watched for a while but didn't get obsessed with unlike all the others i have ever watched. But wow i have to say i am very impressed with their dance skills and singing skills and just their overall charisma. Watch the clip below if you don't know what i mean.
Currently loving... people who self-compliment
This might be weird but i find it so cute when people compliment themselves. Two of my best friends always do it and i find them very adorable. One holds up her own math book and goes 'Wow this is so neat' and the other one goes 'This morning i was so awesome!'. Haha xD
Currently hating... over-helpful shopkeepers
Don't know about you but i really don't like shopkeepers who follow you around trying to promote stuff especially when you have no intention of buying anything. Yesterday i was shopping for fabrics for my formal dress textiles project and i didn't see anything that i really liked. But the shopowner came and laid out all the fabrics i looked at on the ground in front of a mirror and asked me which one i wanted. She took a lot of time explaining to me about different fabrics in a not-very-friendly type of way. As in she didn't smile and looked like she thought i didn't know anything and she knew everything :( Yeah so i ended up getting the fabric to get out of the shop....
Currently obsessed with... collecting kpop albums
I watched someone's collection on YT and omg i got so inspired to buy more. Here's the video:
Anyways so recently i made an order with a friend on Yesasia and got Mblaq's 100% repackaged version. I like it better than the original because it's more or a normal album unlike the original which is kinda like a magazine. Joon looks so hot!!
Currently listening to... Xia's Tarantallegra
Omg i'm never felt physically attracted to Junsu but now i am! The music is very addicting! The title is also a Harry Potter spell for 'to dance'. At first i found the mv disturbing but now i think it's purelly awesome. I think it's something only pure kpop fans can understand and love. Does that mean i'm one? :)

Ways to have fun
People have fun with friends in different ways. I tried to analyse how people in my group have fun.
1. Chat randomly
Most happens at lunchtimes when we just talk about anything that comes to mind. Really fun if it's something i'm interested in but sometimes I have no idea what people are on about and can't join in the conversation.
2. Talk about interests
This is when people of similar interests talk to each other and go hyper because they are passionate. Happens between me + Sheree -> kpop. Sarah + Vanessa + Viv + others -> life-changing things. JG + JL -> Disney. Me + JL -> the hot side of Disney e.g. Simba.
3. Go hyper
This happens not during breaktimes, but during class. Chinese class is the time of hyperness. Don't know what we talk about but we always end up at the same spot - laugh, burp and get busted. Math is also the time to go crazy. My teacher thinks I'm mad. When I go high, I say some inappropriate things that I regret so much afterwards.
4. Wrongness talks
Happens between everyone nowadays. Viv is a very suggestive person who is great at making such awesome things on the spot. Alice and Sarah are also very intelligent when it comes to this area. Vicki's true side is hidden behind her innocent and sweet face. And as for JL, she's slowly becoming a master. People with great reactions -> the Vs
5. Derpy photos
People usually take pretty photos and cute poses, but I take a different sort of photo - derpy photos. I thoroughly enjoy taking photos where I make the most retarded or funniest faces with my friends. Only one partner right now but would like to find some more. It's actually really bad because it gives you wrinkles but you have no idea how much laughter it can bring.
6. Teasing people
A lot of bullies have fun from bringing others down but that's not what I mean. We tease people because it's really funny and everyone has a good laugh and people forget about it afterwards (hopefully).
There are probably more ways we have fun but that's all I can think of for today.
One day I want to find a friend who I have fun with just by lying on the grass and gazing at the sky. I want a friend who I can sit silently for hours and still not feel awkward. That's what I call a true friend.

I've got no curves
I'm literally a flat ruler. I've got no curves at all. When my friend JL and I tried to do taekwondo once and she tried to lift me up by putting her hands around me, I was very confused as to why she kept digging her hand into my belly. Then she told me it's because she couldn't find the end of my waist. (It's ok Jenny i know it's a joke. Actually i know it's not a joke but I'm not angry (: )
So now I'm getting frustrated, because I'm making a formal dress for textiles. I had a few patterns in mind but the teacher lightly hinted that maybe they don't suit me (in other words, I don't have the right body)
I tried to find some more patterns that might suit my ruler-ly body better.
Personally, I never wear dresses. I am a girly person as in I love fashion and beauty but i don't act all girly. I act kinda like a man. I laugh really loud, talk really loud and go crazy with my friends. People look at me with fright when I'm having fun. But I still want to make and wear a dress for my formal, because I don't think I suit wearing something funky like pants either.

A Whole New World
I'm obsessed with Disney. Never thought I would be but then again i never thought i was going to be into kpop or survive textiles or write this blogpost when I'm meant to be doing math.
I've always loved Mulan ever since i watched in year 7 for an English storyboard or something. I love it! Both 1 and 2. I think 1 is a little better because they only made 2 because 1 is so good. The reason i love it is because it has a Chinese background. It's probably my favourite Disney movie.
Little Mermaid is also pretty good, because I really like the songs in there. But apart from that, i've never been into Disney stuff. But you know when you have friends who are obsessed with it you somehow just get obsessed too after they recommend it to you. So I watched Lion King and that's where it started. The first time, I thought the movie was good, only because it had a character exactly like me - Ed. When I watched Lion King 2, I fell in love... with Simba.
Yes I am in love with a lion. Simba has abs!!! Actually i'm not sure if it's just fat being squeezed. But he is pretty hot for a lion.
My friend JL thinks Scar is hot.
Recently I've been watching a LOT of Disney movies, and I mean a lot, like one a night. I've rewatched Cars, Beauty and the Beast, Mulan, Tangled and The Little Mermaid. I cried in all of them. I find simple things very touching, like Mulan's love for her father and Repunzel finally seeing the lights.
I've also been in love with songs! You should definitely go listen to 'I see the Light' from Tangled, 'A Whole New World' from Aladdin and 'Can you feel the love tonight' from Lion King. They are my favourites and have been taking turns being stuck in my head.
I've always loved Mulan ever since i watched in year 7 for an English storyboard or something. I love it! Both 1 and 2. I think 1 is a little better because they only made 2 because 1 is so good. The reason i love it is because it has a Chinese background. It's probably my favourite Disney movie.
Little Mermaid is also pretty good, because I really like the songs in there. But apart from that, i've never been into Disney stuff. But you know when you have friends who are obsessed with it you somehow just get obsessed too after they recommend it to you. So I watched Lion King and that's where it started. The first time, I thought the movie was good, only because it had a character exactly like me - Ed. When I watched Lion King 2, I fell in love... with Simba.
Yes I am in love with a lion. Simba has abs!!! Actually i'm not sure if it's just fat being squeezed. But he is pretty hot for a lion.
