a change of heart

Continuing with the heart-themed backgrounds, here's one from our beloved Passionflower : )
(psst, it's sauce, geddit?)



A long time ago I was in the city and I passed a tiny hole in the pavement. I stopped to look down it and saw that I was standing far above what looked like an underground rubbish dump. I didn't know what to make of it, but it reminded me of Gotham City...




Did you know these two guys are two different guys?? I never knew! Until IMDB shocked me with the truth. I just always thought that this one good-looking guy was in all these movies, and now finding out that they're two people is...LOL.


OMG S SENT ME THIS LINK: (embedding disabled)
You Belong With Me
My favourite song by Taylor Swift♥. I haven't watched a music video this much since that guy who did awesome covers of Forever + Take A Bow. It's SOO cute! And there's that gorgeous guy from Hannah Montanaaa...


In high school related news, J took his OC Test last week at SGHS! Aww. He asked me about the MPH and I told him about the bathroom door that creaks louder than a house on fire and how we got a volleyball stuck in the overhead lights :P I asked him to buy me a Pizza Pie from the canteen and not only did he get me 3, but the canteen ladies remembered me! Awwww...I miss high school♥

*Drool...*


In other high school related news, I miss China. Geez. I pretty much "grew up" there and I'll probably miss it for the rest of my life, but I don't get that nostalgic until I think about it. Which is what happens when I look at old photos...which is why I avoid looking at them. But they're in My Pictures, so of course I see them sometimes, and I get this huge burst of happiness because those days were so great and so FUN, but then I get this rebounding sadness because I can never go back. It's so depressing. But interestingly my psych lecturer said something the other day about people not reminiscing enough, not taking advantage of their memories, which is the stuff of human existence. So I suppose I should get nostalgic and sad because it means I was once very happy. : )

"...snowflakes that fall on my nose and eyelashes..."

It's actually quite painful, really.

I love winter coz winter means scarves, slippers, longsleeves, lambskin and a warm snuggly bed x). It also means ice skating anddd...snowboarding!

My WHOLE family went on a trip to the Snowy Mountains these hols :D


First we stopped by Canberra, which is surprisingly pretty at night.

When you're surrounded by snow, there's just so much of it that you don't really take notice after a while. But sometimes you really look, and it's so beautiful. We passed a playground with a thin layer of snow over it, and I really looked.
Btw, snow sparkles like crazy under the sun. Edward Cullen should've just been coated in a layer of it instead of those ineffective special effects.
It was BOILING on the first day, totally unexpected. That is a gross yet awesome picture of my brother's nose.


There was a huuuge horse stable under the hotel dining area (:O) and we got to see a horse show! The trainer spoke to us throughout the whole thing and the way she talked about horses...I dunno. I thought it was a bit ehh how she kept saying the horse must constantly be reminded of its place underneath humans. Dad told me that it was important for horse training though. I'm still kinda concerned but meh, what do I know about horses apart from The Saddle Club.


SNOWBOARDING! Last time we went, me and my brother got pretty good at skiing, so this time we chose snowboards. Let me tell you, as fun as it is, my right thigh and both ankles DIED DURING THE NIGHT.



SNOWFIGHT!!! Bahahaha. But he got me back good. In fact, he freakin' tackled me and pinned me down.

A thick fog descended one morning, so thick that our surroundings started disappearing!

The parents (or as we like to call them, Mum and Dad Pan). ft. Snow.

As I was saying, PAINFUL.
J: I'm thirsy.
K: I don't have any money.
...
K: Hey it's snowing! Try eating it, maybe you won't be thirsy then. Haha.
J: Haha. *sticks out tongue*
...
J: OW OW OW OW! *turns around and rubs exposed face with gloves*
And then I tried it, with the same results, hahaha.



Awww...now it's over and uni starts tomorrow. I'm pretty happy with these holidays. I got my L's and my first 10 hours. I finished 's present and started on Andy's. I went shopping too much. I got to spend quality time with my family, old friends, and hunny. AND I've made a dent in my pile of movies/series/dramas to watch. :D

I wish I still had more time to do anything, nothing, but I know it's time to be productive again. I'm going to try be more organized this sem, improve on last sem's system. My marks were ok, but my parents were disappointed. Still got 5 subjects, including a writing course to improve on my crappy skills of expression and essay writing. I'm going to study harder. Aye aye.

entertainment tonight: midnight edition

Speak

Kristen Stewart may not be known as much more than Bella Swan these days, but she turns out to be a damn good actress. Watch Speak and get blown away.


Death At A Funeral

British humour at its best. This movie is hiLarious.


Xi Yang Yang Yu Hui Tai Lang

A surprisingly funny and sensical movie-adapted Chinese children's tv program : )


The Secret Life of Bees

Dakota Fanning, in my opinion, is one of the most talented actresses in Hollywood. I love all her movies just because she's in them. This one's about finding yourself and breaking racial barriers.


Hannah Montana: The Movie

I first saw Hannah Montana last year, when my brother was watching Saturday Disney. After this movie, I'm officially a fan. Miley Cyrus has this likeable and real thing about her, and the ending was a heart-warmer x)



There are so many awesome movies coming out!

Seen this twice already! Emma Watson is still my fave, and I cried when Dumbledore died x(

rainbow day



A few nights ago it rained a lot and the next day there were huge rainbows everywhere. : )



Racist people piss me off. I've noticed that most of the racist people I've come across are white, and usually old. Just the other day S and I were walking along a narrow path and we stopped to let some people going the opposite way pass. This old white man who was going the opposite way stopped completely and said in a disgusted voice:
"Get outta the way, Chow."
...
We ignored him and kept walking. It took me a second to realize we'd been insulted, and I was pissed. Next time, I'm gunna say something. He wasn't trying to provoke me to say something, he was being plain rude.
"Whatever, SMITH." Kidding :P
I wish it wasn't such a big controversial issue here, too bad it is. I hear in some places hobos stab asian people on the streets @_@.

Then again, this one time I was standing in the bus and I heard a phone ring. A middle-aged white guy with dreadlocks sitting nearby rummaged through his bag, picked up the phone and went: "Wei?"
LOL.



Holidays have been awesome fun so far, yay : )
But mum thinks me going out so much is irresponsible, so she gave me a list of chores I have to complete before I can leave the house. Aieh, I don't like growing up : (



HUNNY THIS IS WHAT I BOUGHT YESTERDAY:

LET'S COOK ALL OUR WORRIES AWAY ♥



P.S. I miss you Oli!
P.P.S. ANDI (the youngest of our group) IS 18 TODAY!
P.P.P.S. Have a safe flight Maddy!
My old friends Candy and Ray are also flying out today, but P.P.P.P.S and P.P.P.P.P.S just look tacky :P
