♥ update in dot points
x. about half way down on my back... on the left side... it hurts. it's quite uncomfortable
x. been having a locked jaw the past few days too... uber annoying
x. lips are becoming dry... and i haven't been drinking enough water
x. finally got stat assignment done and completed... only to recieve another one today due in two weeks
x. really need to get started on that psyc lit review..... like very soon
x. can't blog as often anymore because i'm not bussing haha and driving nowadays
x. beginning to really hate peak hour traffic... i should really try to avoid driving in those hours - especially when i don't need to.. i could just stay back at uni, or come late to uni..
x. i'm quite exhausted. this week's been pretty full on for me. hopefully this week will lighten up slightly... but i've got a lot of catch up work to do.. and that lit review.. arghh
x. my boyfriend and i have two separate lives, but it's was pretty intertwined at the start of our relationship... but now it's sorta becoming more separate. which isn't necessarily a bad thing i guess, i'm just not use to the whole barely seeing each other / barely doing anything together anymore thing
x. had an interesting convo with rob today about religion. generally most people i talk to respect what i believe and wouldn't mmm... attack me haha. my last convo about religion with rob ended up pretty heated so this time i didn't try to justify anything, but rather tried to see what kind of perspective he had and why he thought those things... and i tried to challenge some of his thoughts. but yeah they were pretty negative but at least i kinda understand why he thinks that way now
x. continuing on with that.. we also had this convo about kids with developmental disorders. and i was surprised with he view on it, considering he's studying psychology too... like he was saying that kids with developmental disorders just shouldn't be born and if his kid ended up developing autism or something he'd give the child up to an orphanage... or if his wife was pregnant with a baby where they knew something was wrong already and she wanted to keep it.. then he'd probably leave her and stuff. so in my opinion i thought that was pretty crazy! because my heart pours out to these kids - it's not like it's their fault or that they did anything wrong. but i'm glad that he's at least gearing towards more the industrial psychology aspect of things rather than anything to do with clinical because i'm not sure how his attitudes would fit in very well. but yeah. isn't that crazy. it took me by surprise that some people thought like that....
x. so yeah i guess my eyes have been kinda opened to how people see the world so differently from how i do...

♥ four down, one to go
statistics
four down, one to go...
well, chemistry was kinda painful.
i mean yes. i was on 6 hours sleep, half a sandwich, a can of V... but still, the actually paper got me stumped quite a few times =[
will need to see a doctor about this vomiting thing. today was actually quite bad. and before u all freak out and think i'm bohlemic, it's actually just stomach acid or something... so i'm thinking it's like... an acid reflux problem. but will find out after exams...
AND ZMGSH. my chemistry book (which i only used for one semester) and bought nice and new from the coop shop is RUINED. i dried my flower petals in it.... (using baking paper as a sheet) and that worked perfectly fine for my tulips.. but NOOO not for the orchips. it had to go all yuck and seep through the paper. GAHHHHHHHH *fustration*........... now the back pages are stained..... T__T...
oh another note. i donated money and got a poppy flower from this nice old man outside the bus station.
it reminded me very much of the poppies i took a photo of, while on YOTY tour... in canberra, at the memorial place...
i didn't know which name to look for. so i just looked for the ones closest to my last name.
pretty huh? the poppy i got today looks just like that one.
alternatively, if you don't end up passing by someone selling them... you can download one as paying your tribute. techy much?
old people are kinda cute hey :)

♥ tim tam white
i've got a throbbing headache. was bad today. took a 3/4hr nap. when i should have been studying. told myself i'd stay up to study.. but i am like zZz........ and this headache isn't helping.
been eating these too.
it's a tad weird i think. i much prefer mint slices. must get some for this exam period mmm.
i wish i took the time to learn all the reactions in chemistry. rather than "cramming". haha. i am like the complete opposite to josh. who's advice is to not cram........ dude :) i've been cramming since forever. and even though i tell myself that next time i won't..... it just happens... o_O must work on that.
wonder if vodaphone will call me tomorrow :)
prayed for his exam today :) i'm starting to see such a refreshed guy. reminds me of the reasons i fell in love with him.

♥ in just one day...
1. i had planned to wake up and study in the morning, (which meant skipping my 10am psyc lecture) before heading to uni (in time for my 1pm, lab)... but instead i woke up at 10:40pm. ugh. if my parents were here, my mum would have called me to wake me up haha.
2. i was absolutely freaking out because it would take over an hour to get to uni - not to mention things weren't going to plan. i got ready in 20minutes, even made myself a sandwhich (dude, i havent made my own sandwhich for lunch in years, i heart my mum) and made my long walk to the bus stop.
3. i stopped by mcdonalds. i needed comfort food. large fries and apple pie it was. $3.75 all up. bargain. bad for the heart though (which ironically was partly what my test was on)
4. i ended up 'studying' on the bus. somewhat productive but not ideal strategy for cramming. sigh i was really freaking out.
5. bumped into my bf on the way to my lab. he was digging into some chips and gravey. made me feel less guilty about my mcdonalds splurge
6. had my test on locomotion and cardiovascular system. easier than i was expecting. praise God!
7. lab on urinary system. ugh, was so unprepared. will need to catch up on that stuff.
8. chem lecture. alcohols... E1/E2 and SN1/SN2 reactions. yay...
9. bus'd it back to nathans house.
10. took funny pictures on his webcam. played basketball. but after a while i got tired and sat on the swing while he played. there was also this dog there that i played ball with.
11. sma dinner. food was pretty good. nice mix of dishes. but in only really liked a few out of the ones they had.
12. met some new people. friendly. and cool.
13. caught up with some people i haven't seen in years (like literally.. years!)
14. heard a great testimony from a doctor who was pronounced dead for over an hour and miraculously came back to life.
15. good chat on the drive home with the legendary pbvn
anyways. God is awesome.
and it's 2am and i should sleep =) yay for uni at 9am! not.

♥ fat-ness
you know those girls who are really =/ about their weight. and call themselves fat when really... they NEED more fat... and you know those girls who eat hardly anything just so they can look good...
yeah. well. i'm not one of them O__O.
i like to play sport, but i'm also really lazy... and i really enjoy my food =/... like really... and i don't really care so much about how i look, not as much as i use to.. and not as much as other girls might. oh and stress can play a factor... i eat more. and i also eat unhealthy.
anyways. so this week. josh has been teasing my fat. in a (somewhat) nice way though.
but i think he's right... =/ in the past month i have done zero sport. and ate infinity.
my tummy has expanded. and pms doesn't help. i think it makes ur tummy bloated. *googles*
" It is not unusual for a woman to feel her stomach bloated during the days before the menstruation period. This is not necessarily related to eating habits, but to the hormonal changes that occur in the female body during the premenstrual period. There are also other symptoms that come along with a bloated stomach, like swelling in the body. "
so there you go.
but really. that shouldn't be an excuse, i have been getting fatter.
and... i don't think eating that left over chocolate cake from my birthday helped either.
doh.
note to self: avoid lying down on grass when i have my period... zZzz...

♥ parents are back
ahhh. so my parents are back
and today i had my first home cooked meal (cooked by parents) since they left.
man it tasted good. (not saying that my sister was a bad cook... just that its not the same...)
so yes, my parents came back naggy. really. my mum was not happy that i didn't tell her when my mid sem exam was and my study break (or else she would have left during my study break, and not during my exam - which is really sweet of her, since she wants to be home during my exams to cook me food while i study haha)
i'm also happy that my parents are back, not only to cook me healthier dinners but to pick me up from places. (not to say that i use them, but because they weren't here... i ended up sleeping over a friend's place.. and i ended up having to take the bus most of the time - which ate up lots of time and hence less time to do more constructive stuff like study)
oh gosh, my washing piled up too. i was going to do it on that monday... but was sick the whole day and ended up sleeping for like most of it. so instead, my mum came home and did all my washing at like 2am (isn't she sweet? <3)
soo i've got lots of work to do this week, and i'm glad my parents are back to keep me in line. it also means i don't have to spend time feeding the dog, playing with the dog, and looking after the house / chores etc. and more time doing work, which i should be doing.
debt wise, i still owe my mum lots of money. it's true that she doesn't care when i pay her back and that i shouldn't be working in expense to my studies... so its important i maintain my studies while working to pay it off...
i love my parents <3!
on another note, went to a good party last night. it made me feel good to know that there are still good parties out there where u can have fun, without the need for alcohol at all. if only everyone knew that still existed!
i was more hyper/crazy than usual. must have been the food i ate that day. it only consisted of : chicken and swt corn soup, vietnamese spring rolls, chicken pattie, samosas, bbq chips, chicken chips, few lollies, lotsssssssss of pepsi, some lychee bbt, a taste of lemonade and two slices of cake (zmgsh xD fatty to the max)
zzzzz.. thank goodness my parents are back.
time to hit the books!

♥ time to breathe
ahh its been such a busy week
and on reflection, i haven't been taking very good care of myself.
i've overloaded myeslf. yes i admit i have. i know i have.
but i thought i could handle it - and i did.
just at the expense of my health.
the exhaustion from the contiously lack of rest and sleep
but i'll be honest. i can take it. i guess i've been there, done that... and i know how to handle it. i can take it.
my to do list has surely gotten shorter. but i guess there's still important things still to do.
stuff like clean my room. write my yoty report. do ace online.
i've still got to get in touch with all my yoty hosts... as well as burn the photos to disc to post out.
well i should head off... iron my dress for 2moros 18th. also somewhat attempt to clean my room. oh and i must not forget to collate those photos to print - wait. i have no money to print photos. that will have to wait.
oh did i mention? im broke =( sigh! its time to get really serious about saving. i'm going to start recording my spending. louis has this system thing set up on excel that he's going to send to me so i can use. it'll be good to keep track of where all my money is going - especially since i need to pay off that debt.
ugh.
