♥ camera roll
leon's tropical 30th
the birthday boy with his fake tan
our tropical outfits (angeline went all out haha)
jeremy foo (with his new haircut) and i... i quite like this photo
TBC leavers '08 reunion
the boys playing games on nathan's new htc
dude, i love this dish... from tea cafe
inspired by the uwa science library note, i thought i'd leave this to encourage them to continue making awesomwe chilli salted deep fried squid tenticles
all gone! two large plates worth
hitting pot black (oh so asian northbridge style...)
hehe. check out that concentration on his face
so anyways, today is sunday, the first sunday of february to be exact - which in other words is vision sunday. we had community lunch together as a church, with a sausage sizzle... and whoever made that potato salad, did a really good job hey. it was nice :)
so the rest of my day has been sorta cleaning my room. still in the process of it btw. and i found this note. i don't remember why he sent it. there's no date, which is kinda sad. but all the same, it's quite cute.
also spent some time making a little collage for the family computer using photofunia and pain.. lovelove.
click to enlarge :)
thats it for now

♥ tbc retreat 2oo8
so yes! i am back from the yr 12 tbc retreat...
and it was great fun...
there was a few things and bits that i was unhappy with.. or maybe even annoyed with.
but i think i'll let that go. and just focus on the good things - for this blog entry anyways. haha.
it was a great trip. great beach. great fun. great people.
i think, being from church, we get to see each other once a week, and sometimes we dont get to talk or spend time with each other, as we might do with school friends.
i think the retreat was a good as i was able to spend time with some really good friends. some that i am already very close to.. and also some that i use to be very close to - but where time and busyness seemed to take its toll over the past year.
this retreat gave me the opportunity to be able to strengthen friendships and to also know everyone a bit more than i did...
and i think thats what i love most about these camps and stuff... u grow so much closer to ur friends. and u also learn a lot more each other... sometimes good things. sometimes badthings.
sometimes u realize the not so good qualities in particular people... and when u notice these kinda things, u become concerned. maybe even judge them. which is bad. because u may have this perspective of someone.. and by spending time with them - u may get to know them even more... and u find out aspects of their personality u dont like. but then again - everyone will have bits about themselves that others won't like. it's called being human.
anyways on a more positive aspect. i actually went into the water! and for quite a long time. and for those who dont really know me to well.. i dont really like being in water for too long.. esp when it gets pretty deep haha. its like im scared of drowning - because i nearly have before.
at first, i didnt really want to go in the water. but then i ended up goin in for a while. and it was just so much fun. i even tried bodyboarding and surfing. haha. things that i think i wouldnt do with other people. but i think i was with people i really trusted and i knew they would save me if i was in trouble haha. and the water was pretty shallow and REALLY nice... like not too crashy waves style. so i felt more reassured when going in.
yeah it was a great experience.... and i really enjoyed it. and it helped me overcome some fears i guess xP that i may have had beforehand. like the second time we went to the beach - i just went straight in... and i wasnt as freaked out about drowning as i was before...
ive also realized how very stubborn i can be. how much of a leader i am use to being... and how much i am not use to being lead. but we'll keep that for another blog entry.
soo... the end of the year draws in...
and we're leaving TBC. oh the memories. we share so much as a group... all the camps and youth nights... the outings and socials... the cookie bakes and moviess...
it's something that has been a big part of my life. these people - have been a big part of my life.
they've help me grow... yet we've grown together. and we've been through so much.
but now comes the time to move on. and i guess its not really too daunting for me.. because the year 12's are moving on together! to a different stage of life. to uni life. and to lighthouse.
it will be a tad weird being the youngest again. the youngest in the group... but im the kinda person who gets along with older people... just as well - or if not better, than as i get along with people in my age group.
so we've had awesome memories as a group... but i know we're just going to be having so much more =) just as good! and if not better... im lookin forward to it.

♥ changing for the better
so i've got this new thing with a fren of minee
where i have to do the "$1 swear jar" kinda thing..
hence =______+" i gotta stop swearing.
but itsss soo lamee cauz i accordin to him i cant even say "retard" or "ass"... and especially "shit"
which always just slips =/... so its time to get rid of the bad habits! >_____> or else im gonna be brokeeeeeeeeee hahahaha...
anyways bought jeans today! they were originally like 65 bucks o__O but i got them for 15! =) ahh bargains make me feel good.
but i had a pretty good day today. just went to hang out in the city n stuff... it was kinda different, since ive been in the country for the past few days at leaverss...
speaking of leavers. it was really nice... the scenery. the animals. and it was really fun =]... like there was no fights.. no stress over exams or tests... just hanging out with each other, having the time of our life... yeah it was goodd..
i kinda liked waking up to see a beautiful horizon... i kinda forgot how pretty nature is... how beautiful the sunset is... how busy our city lives are.
but dont fear, im not a country bumkin... but its good for a trip to juz relax... because im always such a busy person. i guess leavers was a good chance for me to get away from my busy lifestyle and take some time out - but dont get me wrong... it was busy at leavers! haha. but a different kinda busy.

♥ painnnnn...
argh i could hardly get up this morning.
the fact i havent played baddy in 9 months, the suddenly played somewhat "intensely" on monday... is really taking its toll on me.
but it was good catching up on sleep, considering i havent been gettin much of it lately! due to organisin this leaders thingo we're doing... ugh those invites took agess to print at 2am.
anyways. today was pretty lazyish. but i was in pain anyways... so i couldnt really do too much.
downloaded all the camera pics to my lappy the copied it to harddrive.. did some packing for leaveres (since im leaving 2moro!!) and yeahh did more organisin for the dinner.
heading out tonight for some icecream with some of the guys from church. which will be a good break. just to chill out. which i havent had much of a chance to do..
leavers 2moro. til sunday. will be crazy. but fun. but also very tiring.. hopefully my body would heal by then so i can handle it.. or i might find myself just lazying around for most of the day.. boo.
anyways. mikey told me the w595 is coming out on three =D.. very excited & happy. means i wont have to get it outright ^^... such a lovely phone... esp the red & white one =)... *dreamy look*
yeah i was looking up like other SE phones.. couldnt really find one that i liked to be honest... and then i was on the sony website when i say the w595... <333333
i hope it comes out soon, pref before my cap ends, so i can just switch caps and get it..
yeah i wasnt sure if i should upgrade from my 29 cap.. but i seem to keep overspending and going over it. so i guess i might as well... $__$
kinda happy cauz i got paid for the weekend ^^... $180... for 8 hours on sat, and 3 hrs on sun at reddot xP... comes down to around $13 an hour? something like that.. not bad i guess.. especially for reddot ^^... its kinda tiring though. but then again, mayb its cauz i havent worked in SO long.
the manager lady wants to train me up! maybe even to supervisor sorta level... she wants me to be her support sorta person. which will be good for experience i guess. i dont know i could handle working there for so long though.. atm, the people who work there are realllyyyy hard to work with. some of them are okay though, otherwise some are just plain lazyyy.
but at the moment its convenient - the hours, transport, pay etc... so yeah. we'll see how it goes
anyways. i better head off. going out for icecream with the guyss from churchh. haha will be fun. kinda funny how i get along with older people so well. even though they're like 10 yrs older than me. i guess its handy. the ability to communicate with people of all ages. =]
