There was a book fair/sale at the Expo a few days ago and Y got me two Merlin novels just because while he was there like a bookworm drawn to book sales. Envy me, for my boyfriend is both nerdy and awesome XD
(Ooh, Colin and Bradley~ *Coos at book covers*)

Anyway. I started out typing this entry with a few things in mind that I wanted to say, but now I've forgotten what I was going to update about. Fail.

It was supposed to go something like: I kept nodding off at work because after years of staying up for uni stuff, I can't seem to keep to my 10p.m. bedtime. Waking up at 6a.m. for five days a week has made work hours very difficult to get through. And I've been packing my own lunch to work since the third day of work because eating outside meant having to endure the heat and the expensive CBD menu. Although I feel so wrung out tonight that I'm not really up to cooking something for tomorrow. I guess I'll just buy a sandwich from 7-11 tomorrow morning on my way to the bus stop. Then maybe I'll mention something about the crazy heat these few days. I didn't even have to switch on the heater for the shower; the water was too warm on the lowest setting. And that my hair's getting long enough to be at that length that its mere presence is irritating, and it sticks to the back of my neck and fizzes when it gets too warm or too humid even though I have straight hair (so totally not true that only curly and/or wavy hair fizzes). Can the rainy/monsoon season be here now? UGH.

Okay. I think my mind just went *kapoot* because it's functioning on a lack of energy while the weather is overheating it. Stupid equatorial weather.

Because I'm geeky and this will blow your mind.

長い夏。
ながいなつ。
Nagai natsu.
Long summer.

Can the monsoon/rainy season come already? It's so hot and humid I sweat even more easily than usual and the tap water is warm. THE TAP WATER. IS WARM.

On the topic of a little less fail, after 22 years of EPIC FAIL, I've finally learned how to ride a bicycle! Just this past weekend, K.Ying's uni friends had some project thingy (which I had no idea how to explain) but the objective of it was to teach a skill or something. So I was (one of the two) guinea pig(s) of the project and they had to teach me how to ride a bicycle.

After two days of two hours of bike riding each, lots of shrieking, almost-cursing (which I had to self-censor to "FISH!" instead because there were kids around), too many times of almost-falling-off-the-bicycle, a few bruises, countless scratches from the pedals, getting sunburnt, I finally managed to stay on the bicycle long enough to be considered cycling. Herein is the end to all the teasing I kept getting for not knowing how to cycle. HAH! Also, this meant that, technically, I only took less than four hours to learn how to ride a bicycle. WIN! :D

(Aah... Gotta live with the sunburn, aching arms and the pain in the seat of my bum for a few more days.)

Curfews suck. And I really couldn't feel the vibration of my mobile phone through my shorts. Accept that, and shut it. And really, taking away my phone and Internet access for the night? I HAVE SUCH IMMATURE PARENTS (and utterly uncreative ones, at that).

In other news, I finally have my red Converse jacket back. YAYNESS.

Because I'm an unapologetic MERLIN fangirl )

私は本を大好き!
わたしはほんをだいすき!
Watashi wa hon wo daisuki!
I love books!


Torchwood novels!
Another Life, Border Princes and The Twilight Streets!
(Oh, Ianto... Pretty Ianto... *strokes book cover*)

(Because even there might be proof that I'm a huge fangirl, there isn't much proof that I'm just as crazy about books. Especially if they're related to one of my fandoms.)

I met up with S.Lan in the afternoon (after some phototaking with Jacq because she wanted to sell some no-longer-needed clothes online, but more on that once I finish editing all the photographs) for some random shopping-and-walking-about, which was when I took the opportunity to use the Kinokuniya gift vouchers my secondary school friends gave me for my birthday. AM SUPER HAPPY XD

Dear L3 partner! We must meet up more often because unlike you, who has four months worth of free time, I only have three weeks!


And to my F-list who knows/learned Japanese: I'm thinking of getting a Japanese-English dictionary. Oxford's looking pretty good. What do you guys think?

I have fallen in love with Neil Gaiman again.

Hello, Colbert PWNAGE!

Neil Gaiman is ♥
(Which reminds me, I need to buy The Graveyard Book soon.)

And because my life is full of drama, the Internet shall be my dumping ground.

Because my world is round and yours is flat )

Ugh. I am now tired but satisfied that I got all of that down. And now I'm off to watch the Doctor Who 2009 Easter Special.

In 2009

I've stopped making New Year Resolutions because, knowing myself, I'll never keep to them. Still, I want to try and make an effort to complete certain things within this year.

And making lists make me happy. There's something strangely therapeutic about making lists. Or maybe it's just me.

Things to Accomplish/Complete in 2009 )

Wishlist 2009 )

Yes, I did write the lists down on paper (because I'm crazy like that) but they're bound to be messy, so I scratched the idea of scanning them and posting the pictures.

Anyway, the lists will be updated as and when I have more things to add and-or when things can be crossed off.

Let's see how far I can go this year. If I'm lucky, perhaps I'll get to experience my 2009, unlike 2007 and 2008, which had went by too fast for me to even realise they were gone.

fleeting human contact
both of us lost,
but for a moment
we're lost together.
I wonder who you are."
