random things peiying and bena do at home..

laze in front of the tv and watch winter olympics + friends + other things (and plot ways to be even more lazy like flipping vcds with my toes.)

bena does her weird stretches.

i continue herbal remedy-ing

plan our marathon run

snack

hmm today has been nothing short of interesting.

woke up grumpy and in-sufficient-slept. popped online to check on timetable and stuff. and decided to chat to alot of people whom i've been totally out of touch with for just about forever.

and it's comforting to know that despite the distance, we really haven't changed.

=)

(with reference to bena's cup of water on the bar counter "i'll finish drinking it when i get back", i stood there for about 5 seconds to ponder if it's half full or half empty. it's pretty amusing. haha. conclusion was that since the cup is green, it doesn't matter.)

kilda's beach

bena got burnt and i read interesting captions on overpriced bookmarks.

"hi i'm a fungi"

"i try to be bossy but she won't let me"

and various others tt i just can't remember. oh and there was this amusing msn convo too.

me: i'm gonna kill u.
person: huh?
me: i'm gonna rip your lungs out, chop them into perfect 2cmX2cm cubes, and feed them to stray dogs.
person: is that a threat?
me: since when is 'i'm gonna kill u' not a threat?

yay bena arrived on sunday morning. actually technically afternoon i think.

anyway that's not the point.

yay!

going queen vic night market tonight to walk walk... and possibly buy presents for half a million people.

last night alone

hmm tonight's the last night i'll get the whole house to myself... which is sad and happy at the same time. oh and there were fireworks outside just now haha. quite pretty but kinda noisy. pity the people staying whereever the fireworks were... if they were so loud from this far away......

anw, i can't get to sleep! -insommia strikes- no idea why. should invest in those kind of soothing music, like nature sounds or smth. except listening to crickets cricketing might make me feel like there're crickets in my bed and start to itch all over.

speaking of crickets, i have absolutely no idea how the game is played. and seven/nine have been showing it so much it's irritating. i don't get it. what's the point of having baseball, softball, AND cricket if they all look basically the same? (and no the argument doesn't hold wrt basketball and netball because i like those games)

grr. oh and balley isn't coming over with bena=( blah. stupid mosquito netting. i blame the weather. if it didn't get so hot sometimes then i wouldn't need to open the windows then the mosquitoes wouldn't be able to fly in. then again, since i've moved over the weather's been kinda cold. or maybe it's coz i'm on the 9th floor now. either way, the windows haven't been opened much.

i hope the pineapple tarts and salted fish pass customs. major pineapple tart craving.

and since tomorrow starts in about 10 minutes, i'll hang around and return to continue this post in 10 minutes just so i can say "bena arriving today!"

bena's arriving today!

happy birthday jiahui!

i realise i tend to form severe attachments to minute inanimate objects. eg, the number 17 black badge that until about 24 hours ago used to be attached to my pencilcase. now i can't find it. which is really sad coz it's been with me ever since my jersey number became 17. and there've been countless times when i've realised it's disappearance only to find it hiding in some dark sinister corner of my bag / the floor / under some table. but now it's gone. and i have this feeling i'll never see it again. heartbreaking really. my pencilcase looks naked without it.

i miss my badge...

wow that was possibly my longest post for the past few months.

oh yes, and happy 20th sihuan!

tagboard and other matters

tagboards REALLY don't like me. grr. first tag-board.com. now tagworld. grrrrr.

can't wait for bena to arrive! (with my food and christmas presents!)

address change: 1914/570 Lygon Street, Carlton, Vic 3053, Australia.

i welcome presents and other nice surprises.

my room is now messy again. must remember to pack before bena arrives. probably tml.

and i need to study! argh exams next wed. blah blah blah. oh well. after it's over we can go down to queen vic night market. yay!

erm. there were other things. oh yes. wawa has an eye infection (poor dear) so she has to wear this cone-like thing around her head to stop her from scratching her eye so now she looks like a torch light. told my mom to keep the cone till i get back so i can colour and decorate it to make it look like a lion's mane.

last chem prac of the term starting soon. hope it ends early so i can go down to college square admin to get the condition report sorted out.

reminder: must get the shower and data point fixed.

oh and i had to call to cancel the water supply for the old apartment and activate the new one yesterday. which i was supposed to do BEFORE i moved. which i totally forgot to do coz 1) i dint know i was supposed to do it and 2) the new room already HAD water coming out of the pipes... obviously i thought it was an auto transfer since everything's within the same compound. apparently not. luckily i read the small print.

the good thing is that (hopefully) no one's living at the old place yet so i don't have to pay their bill and (hopefully) the count will start from tml when they check the meter so my water usage for the past week will have been foc.

which doesn't make a difference anyway since water costs like less than 20 cents a day.

to do:
1) see stephanie at admin
2) pack house
3) fix shower
4) fix data point
5) check out vicroads address change (???)
6) study. study study study!!!

down to the final week countdown before bena arrives! and pam's coming on the 13th too! yay yay yay!

heartbreak: brilliant courseplan has been rejected.

why does my tagboard keep resetting?

moving

is tiring. tiring tiring tiring.

4 flights down, one flight up. blahhh.

my arms ache. my legs ache. i still have to unpack. blahhhhhhh.

and i have chem lab in about 15 minutes. BLAH.
