♥ graduation
today my sister is graduating...
IN THE UNI GYM!!!!!!!!!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA.
thanks to the damage done to winthrop hall by the hail storm yest.
i shouldn't be laughing. thats mean. but for some reason i do find it funny...
she is like fully freaking out about everything. what everyone is wearing (down to my dad's tie) and screaming about making sure we have the graduation tickets (even though they were definately in mums handbag - she probably just didn't look properly)
sigh, going to be a longgggg night.

♥ hail storm
well today perth got owned by a hail storm... fitted very well with my mood today too.
chris & i were camping in the science library and were packing up to head to the bus stop, when we look outside the window to see pouring hardcore rain & hail... lovely!
chris & me... outside tats & wilsmore... the lawn covered in ice cubes...
HAIL!
the lovely hail covered james oval, haaha people were standing in the middle of it chucking ice around
the pavement covered in leaves that fell from the trees...
check out this tree broken in half... xD
windows broken in student admin...
yup so what happened was there was epic traffic, because the roads were flooded.. so we ended up jsut getting out of the bus and walking back to the city...
on the way, we had to take a detour because of the crazy flooding.. and passed by this avalanche...
yeah so CHRIS made me walk up that stupid jacobs ladder and ZMGSH........ T_______T my legssss!!!!
but yes, i will admit, the view was pretty from the top. but by then my legs killedddddd
audi got owneddd by street parking. window got smashed too
trafficccccccc
random shot while walking towards the city..
and so, three hours later.. we finally get home. lovely really.

♥ hot weather is coming
i can't believe its forecasted to be 32 degrees this saturday...
and i will be stuck at reddot working from 10 - 4pm.
=[ instead of hanging out at the beach.
thinking of canceling looksmart on sunday. was going to work 10.30 - 3.30, but might need to study instead. even though double pay is so appealing, i don't particularly NEED the money... esp since i'm working heaps this wk at reddot :) still not in debt, so yay for financial freedom. will open one of those online saving account thingys soon so i can start getting interest!
exams are looming close. closer than i thought. sixteen days in fact. will try to average a fgpa of 6.5 this semester. but really, i'm happy with anything above 6.2. i hope my hbio mark is better than my anth mark last sem, or else i will be disappointed.
will try to keep everything over a 70 this sem (if anything, chem and hbio will be close)
neeeeeeeed to scrape a 80 for statsss (it's maths! I MUST maintain my love for it!) and hopefully for psyc too! because i didn't really try so much last sem for psyc. and it's not a bad unit, i quite like it.. even though i rarely go to lectures... it is interesting.
i still haven't figured what i'm doing next year. but yeah, it's not the time to lose motivation! must focus on exams... and not let it be a repeat of yr12.
attempting to use my uni breaks more constructively, and it's working. it's difficult when i only have one hr breaks most of the time... so it's not much time but at least we get through some stuff :)
waking up for 9am lectures is becoming increasingly difficult. i'm almost to the point of giving up and just ilecturing. but NO. MUST AT LEAST TRYYYYYYYYYYYY. gahgaghaghah.
that's it for now, i'm exhausted... was falling asleep in my chem lect today.

♥ my walk / sma 1st yr dinner
yesterday i walked home from work..
it was around a 40 minute walk. i was a bit unhappy about it at first, parents were at a festival (which they didnt tell me abt til that day. and sister was out). but i lightened up after i took some time out to just look around at my surroundings and absorb the sunshine and air.
well... that definately was my 30 minutes of exercise for the day... or should i say week.... or even month.
just came back from sma first year dinner, it was really casual and laid back, and we just watched a movie and ate. and even though there weren't many of us, i liked it :) the movie was pretty good too. cept josh kept telling me off for asking questions / saying stuff - oh dear, thats what i do to my mother - tell her off. like mother like daughter eh. he better get use to it =P

♥ 2busy4u
i was only in charge for the last hr at work but i had responsbility of counting the last till which was down $58. sigh, hate when that happens when i'm in charge, because i wonder if they'll lose trust in me if it's always down when im in charge. it's so not my fault though, i counted the money three times to check it. sigh! wish the counter girls were more careful.
i've got heaps of hours nxt wk cauz they're doing a refit ~ 20hrs. yay for money x) finally some hours! no tests nxt wk too..
coming home from work i looked into the dark blue sky. and saw some stars. the moon wasn't there though. but when i looked up i knew it was somewhere, you just couldn't see it.
my boyfriend's been pretty busy lately. it use to be me the busy one but now it's so role reversal. he's always studying on skype or in the library with his friends. which is great for uni, but i wish there were more hours in a day. sitting by myself in the library studying is just so lonely. but he doesn't like to study with me, because we dont do the same course so he can't ask me questions x) and plus, even if we did the same course i doubt i'd be any help anyways xD
on the road to finding some study buddies... because i find when i just go to the library and sit down with whoevers there we just end up talking. where as if i set fixed study session times, maybe we'll get study done?
even if it's not people in my units.. like studying with chris last sem worked pretty well.
but yeah idk if it's really studying or not i need. or just catching up x)
either way, must make more use of my spare uni breaks. i shall make a hour by hour timetable in attempt to be more organised.
exams are kinda soon =/ and it's 1am so i should go bed now.
'til next time

♥ fading sunshine
we see the sun quite a few times in our life.
but what if it never appeared.
maybe the clouds were covering it. maybe rain always poured down. maybe we are stuck in a room that we never get to see the sunlight.
would we then believe that the sun is still there? knowing that it's there. without being able to see it or the affects it has. and what if we kept hearing about this sun, but never got to see it or experience it for ourselves?
or maybe we have seen and felt the sun! but what if it was just day after day of rain. how do u remember what the sunshine felt like? when u haven't felt it in so long. when u get use to jumping into the puddles. when u throw out ur sunglasses and shorts and singlets.
lalala, okay i should stop procrastinating and study for hbio.
but the sun is out at the moment, and it's nice and sunny. too bad i'm lonely and stuck in the uni library.
sigh.

♥ beach
my boyfriend took me to scarborough beach today. yes he actually drove. yay!
it was nice :)
we just went for a short walk, because we didn't have much time, but we sat down for a bit and kinda got lost in our own world of laughter before we realized the time.
it was nice to just lie on the sand in the sunshine, even though we were both in jeans ahaha.
i kept looking back at our footprints in the sand, side by side (except for those short moments we were pushing each other). i wish i had my camera to take a photo. just made me think about how far we've come. it's nearly eight months. in the distance i could see more of the shoreline that we had not gotten to... and it reminded me of how many more steps there is to take... how much more there is to come.
must go back one day, properly dressed, and go for a swim :)

♥ busybusy, 12hrs til VIC.
i'll be flying to ballarat in less than twelve hours.
i've sorta packed. but it's not easy. 7kg. for 10degree weather, i mean yes, okay, i''ll be there for like 3 days. but still. i need to pack formal suit like gear for the conference during the day. as well as fancy dressy type stuff for the gala dinner at night. pjs with a jumper. and warm stuff for general wear.
gah, i'm struggling. i've never been a good packer.
i'm bringing my laptop too, for the 4hr+ flight. to do my speech and powerpoint presentation. hmm. i'm so last minute sigh!
finally got the courage to ask the girl at work about her pregnancy, only to get the sad news she terminated because the doctor said something about her small body size not being good enough or something =[ ouch it hurt hearing that.
i feel like i'm getting slightly sick, feverish almost. runny nose is A for Annoying.
today was fun. we ended up going for dimsum. gosh we ate a lot. lotsa oily stuff too. felt really sick after, but it took a while to kick in. tea really helped. tried that vanilla chai that ry loves. and went home and had some lipton. oil in body from food + nice yummy warm tea = feeling so much better.
oh, went to visit the admissions center. lady told me abt bonded and even gave me a brochure. it's not as bad as many make it sound ahaha. and like it doesnt effect ur chances of getting non bonded if u stick bonded as 2nd pref. so yeah she totally got me convinced, i've changed it on tisc already. but whether i'll accept or not, i've still got a few months to decide.
she also told me average for interviews was 90 for umat. and average gpa for entry was arnd 6.3
hmm. i'm sitting on a 86 and 6.125 (sem 1)
must avoid gpa from going down, even though this semester is so much harder.
must be strategic and try to get 75+ for each subject, then i can get that 6.3
will have to really hit the books when i get back from ballarat.
speaking of ballarat. the minimum goes down to 3 DEGREES. THREE?!
and maximum TEN!
i am going to freeze my butt off.

♥ a windy rainy friday
louis : still alive?
ditz : yeah. haven't slit my wrists yet lol.
disclaimer: that was a joke =/ do not take it seriously abt the wrist slitting... okayyy.....
ahaha, today i am hoping to keep the number of posts down for day x) but i am going rather good in fact. i went to bed around 1, slept at around 2am... woke up at 11, made the trek to uni for that psyc help class, made a new friend and hung arnd the lib with chris vern and av for like ten minutes (it took me ten minutes just to find them!) then got picked up by my driving instructor (in the pouring rain....) and yes just got home =)
tonight i'm going to try to get that psyc report done! i'm going to aim to finish it, so i can spend my weekend focusing on chem.
sigh, the cut contact thing is semi not working because he's talked to me twice online already. it was small talk that lasts like 2minutes, mainly questions or letting me know stuff, stuff like how i left something at his hse... but i don't think he understands how much harder he makes it for me when he starts a convo... and i have to end it.
anyways on another note, i'm the kinda person who, when upset, likes to push people away =/ it's not very good, and i should learn to be more open... it's just i don't like to burden people mmm.
sigh, it's pouring rainy, and it was so windy on the way to uni, i was so tempted to walk back home and curl up in bed!
when i reached uni i actually stopped to look at my surroundings (which i rarely do since im usually late for class xD), and even though it was cloudy and stuff, my uni is pretty =)
off to do that report, catcha laters ;)4:20 PM
