Love Bites

I generally don't find Robert Pattinson attractive but this photo is oh so hot.

Just saying.

BF.

I spoke to my best friend on the phone today. No big deal.. to you, yeah? Well this best friend of mine so happens to live half way across the world in the big yoU eS of Ayyyyy.

You wouldn’t believe my excitement to just hear her voice on the other end of the line. I couldn’t actually think of much to say for the first few minutes until my initial excitement settled.

She is just amazing and talking to her just reminded me of that. Again.

I can’t help but smile when I talk to her. She’s one of ‘those’ people.. My cheeks are honestly hurting a little right now.

Crazily enough, I only knew her a week whilst holidaying it up in America with some kids I call friends; Nikee, Amy, Sam, Jono, Talmage, Lachlan and Brady.

And whilst there I attended a Summer Camp with my church in Logan, Utah which I dare say was one of, if not the best week of my life and if it was not for her it would not have been anywhere near as good as I found it.

Seven days, one week may not seem like an overly long time to most of you, yes...? But during this one week we managed to become friends. The best of friends. Even closer than some of my friends at home that I see everyday even.

I miss her so so much and can’t tell her enough how much I really do. She is just the sweetest girl. She is one of those ‘feel good people’. The ones that whenever you’re around them you can’t help but be in a good mood. Current events have shown me how important such people are to have.

But not only is her interior amazing, she is just absolutely gorgeous. Blonde hair, blue eyes yeah yeah but I mean her eyes aren’t your everyday blue eyes. People get lost in them. Literally...

I admit I’m not too fond of having to stand next to her because the comparison of looks is embarrassingly contrasting.. and are not favourable towards me.

Our future list of life.

One. I’ll graduate school in 2010.

Two. After Christmas I’ll fly over to California, America and live with Whit

Three. Attend school with Whit. An American School!! :)

Four. Graduate second time round in America.

Five. Move out of my jungle room at Whits

Six. We’ll get a place of our own. A little cute apartment.

Seven. Go to college.

It will be epic. When we get our own little place we’re going to go shopping in ‘Walmart’ for groceries and household items. I cannot wait.

love love love.

Howling Animals.

My future husband and child.

Want.

^ Most disgusting drink EVER.

Lies..

I've never had a sicker feeling in my stomach. The thought of losing a best friend. My best friend.

We've been through it all.

I haven't ever really thought about what it would be like to not have her just a phone call away if I were to ever need her.

What can I say to her.

What should I say to her.

Misunderstandings are a regular occurrence. They can happen so easily and can come because of so many things. Things unsaid, things said, actions misconstrued.

But what do you say, what can you say.

In my state of anger a couple of nights ago I said something that was interpreted by numerous people. All different. All wrong.

What do I say to clarify their misunderstanding without sounding like I'm 'covering my tracks'. I don't like lies. 'Lies have short legs, they don't get very far'. I wouldn't even think to do such but what do I, can I, should I say...

I wish people would mind their own business and butt the hell out of my life.. at times.

I don't understand why people feel the need to put their 2 cents into everything. Sometimes they need to learn when to shut up. Not everybody cares what they have to say and want to hear their opinion on everything.

Don't confuse love with lust. Yes they both start with L but they couldn't be two words that are further apart in meaning..

"If you gave someone your heart and they died, did they take it with them? Did you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?"

True love is hard to find but i'm not sure if I'd rather waste a lifetime trying to find that one true love or settle for someone less. What if I did spend my whole life trying to find 'him' and I never did. Or if I did find him and he passed away, leaving me behind. What then..

"If you have a sister and she dies, do you stop saying you have one? Or are you always a sister, even when the other half of the equation is gone?"
This quote is from the book and movie 'My Sister's Keeper'. I had wanted to see it when it was in the theatres but never got a chance to and so with Carlos Schacht + Charlie Kolesi + myself; Chuck Campbell (our new appointed names as of Wednesday Night; Dec 16) we on multiple occasions attempted to attain a copy of this movie from the dvd shop. Seemingly impossible at times being not out yet when we tried. But alas, after a night of giggles at basketball, we began our quest to attain this movie once and for all. "Huzzah". We found it. It all happened so quickly. We walked into the shop, found the new releases section and it was there in all its glory, almost sitting there waiting for us. It was a memorable moment to say the least. We could hardly believe our luck!
Fast forward to later that night having coincidentally chosen the same restaurant to my mother; Charrel to order take-away from, pumping tunes in Carlos' fully sick car, eating our delicious Thai feast, showering and everything in between we finally sat down to watch the movie.
I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Whether i would need a tissue or a box of tissues. As it turned out i could have used about half a box.. I let a few tears slip about forty minutes in and they kept on coming. It was so sad, i loved it but it was so very sad and made you think afterwards. Which i love about movies, ones that make you think. Not just sit there mindlessly like a zombie.
Anyways, that's my 2 cents for the day. Enjoy.

Slip Slop Slap

I've never been a huge believer in sunscreen. Yes i know skin cancer is a risk and i should 'slip slop slap' before going out into the sun but i mean who doesn't love being tanned and looking hot..? That was my approach however until this week. Last Saturday I ventured to the beach with some kids i call friends. Like usual, I watched everyone else apply sunscreen while i just sat and soaked up the sun. That was mistake #1.

That morning it wasn't hot at all, it was cold in fact. I know that when it's overcast you can still get badly burnt but i chose to ignore that fact and wished for the sun to come out and play. It did. In fact, it turned out to be a killa day. The sun wasn't in a good mood that day. It was bearable however. Just.

We all laid out on our towels and read trashy magazines. Bought Lunch. Chitted and chatted. Browsed the markets. I bought a sick ring and a necklace which i will later take apart to make into a ring :) We got our picture taken by a promotion team from a new energy drink. Was cool.

Either way, it was just a dandy day.

Bom bommmmm.

Towards the end numerous people began commenting on the state of my back and legs.. They were apparently "SO red" and looked like tomatoes.. I brushed it off as I've never been one to burn at all so I figured they were slightly over reacting.. Little did i know that my 'skin cells were in trauma'. My poor cells had been fried.

When I got home, I checked myself out in the mirror to see what all the fuss was about and alas they were right. I did look like a tomato and was SO red. I was shocked! This did not happen to me.. ever!

And because i had been wearing shorts, it looked like i was wearing super duper high red socks... not cool man, not cool.

Let's just say, the rest of my week consisted of drowning myself in aloe vera, uncomfortableness, looking like a beetroot and giving "soft hugs" as well as walking like a mummy.

Lets skip to yesterday.

I was just casually doing some shopping. Found a few cool tops. Tried them on and felt something on my back. You will not guess it.

My back had blistered because i had been that badly sunburnt. I was freaked and shocked and horrified and felt sorry for myself and my back. I couldn't even look at it any longer. It was terribly disgusting. I repeat my back had blistered! Like when your shoes give you blisters. Imagine that pain x100. Ouch.

To prevent grossing you out further I will skip the detail of it but I will say this.

"I am a changed person".... haha but seriously I am. Lesson learnt. Sunscreen is good :)

I will never ever allow myself to be that badly burnt and put myself in that much pain ever again. Ever.

I love sunscreen. The End.

And don't forget to 'Slip Slop Slap' Kids.

Love is just a word unless someone comes to you and gives it a meaning

I like people. And i know a few amongst those zillion people around the world like me back.

They're funny sometimes though. They say they like you and then act the complete opposite.

They say that they wouldn't ever do anything to hurt you. But then they do.

They say they love you. But if they really did, they wouldn't treat you the way they do.

This has only happened to me once before. I fell for this boy. I fell too hard.

We were best friends before any of this craziness happened. We talked on the phone every night and filled every space in between thinking about each one another or texting the other. I guess thats how these sort of things start. It's always the way though. The best friends fall for the other. It unpreventable.

He told me he liked me and I showed that I did back. I'm not good with affection and discussing emotions. I rarely show it. So if I do you can be certain that it's true.

Skip to the end. It didn't work out. I lost him.

I'm sorry that i have brown hair instead of blonde. That i don't have orange skin. I'm also sorry that i'm not the skinniest of girls. I wish at times that i was. That i didn't feel self conscious when going out about what i looked like. That i have to restrict what i wear because of it.

People are just funny at times. We make mistakes. We fall flat on our faces.

We stress over the tiniest of problems.

We chase based on hope rather than facts. We are silly creatures.

Mini me.

It has come to my attention that a certain girl by the name 'Alicia Willson' is under the impression she is "happily married" and in love with Taylor Lautner. I am just going to be frank about it. It's crap. First because myself and Taylor have been lovers since his movie Shark Boy n Lava Girl was a smash hit and we met and fell in love. Second because we are already married. And thirdly, myself and Taylor have six love children together..

All of this aside this girl is one of my favourites. We have this bond. It must be an asian thing. We only officially met and hung out at Jared Meyer's party. Since that we've gone on a cute date and saw New Moon. Shared a romantic dinner for two at Sushi Train. Ate ourselves silly with chips, cookies, nutella, starburst and fizzy. Top stuff.

We became friends in a night really. Some may think that is too quick. I however would not have it any other way. She's crazy, loud and just hilarious. But that is why i love hanging with her.

We have established the fact we both have asian mothers and are now self appointed twins.

She likes photography. I like photography.

She likes SLR cameras. I like SLR cameras.

She likes ridiculously big rings. I love ridiculously big rings.

She likes Taylor Lautner. I love Taylor Lautner.

She likes my asian front fringe. I like her asian front fringe.

She likes me. I like her.

That's it really.

Do tell....

10 things you want for christmas:

- An SLR or polaroid camera. I absolutely love taking photos.

- A super duper cute puppy dog. Unlike my pet snake, I could play and cuddle a puppy. Snakes aren't affectionate really like me in so many ways actually. Cool nonetheless.

- Gym membership. To start work on my summer bod. Summer is here. My amazing bod isn't.

- $ for my future car

- $$$$ for my travels all around the world.

Imma little stumped at the momento. To be continued...

9 musicians/bands you love:

- 3oh!3 They're punk, alternative. I'm not entirely sure what you would classify their sounds as but either way, they're a favourite.

- The Cool Kids. For all you nigga beat appreciatives. They are the epitomy of cool.

- Lupe Fiasco. Could not find a better performer and musician.

- Kid Cudi. His beats are so chilled and his lyrics meaningful and heartfelt. Not just a string of words spoken to sounds.

- Jay-Z. Amazing. That is all.

- Taylor Swift. I find her music so relatable to myself. I suppose because her songs mostly revolve around teen dramas predominantly revolving around boys..

- Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana. Teeny bopper or not, i love her music. Again, relating to her music.

- The All American Rejects. I only have love for this band and their music.

- The Jonas Brothers. Team Joe. I love Joe especially but find their music so easy to listen to and similarly can relate to their lyrics.

........... couldn't think of anything else but i do thoroughly enjoy those two smells.

3 places you want to go:

- Greece. I find it to be an absolutely beautiful place and hope to visit one day.

- Peru. The inca's i find fascinating and would love to experience seeing them for myself.

- undecided..... let's say Jamaica for now yes. Oh and Spain and Egypt.

2 holidays you love:

- America. To some, this destination does not seem exotic or fascinating. But to me, their lifestyle suits me perfectly. I don't hate Australia but do regret not being born in America to have been able to go to an American school for my high school years.

- Queensland. Once again, most probably not your first holiday destination but to me this means seeing and spending time with extended family. A rarity, to be cherished.

1 person you’d marry on the spot:
- At the moment, that would be Taylor Lautner. Not only does he have the amazing good looks, killer bod, beautiful tan skin but also the cutest personality. I would personally just love to give him the biggest hug and never let go. He's too freaking cute. It's love. I will one day marry him. He just doesn't quite know it yet... :)

It did so,

Can we not pretend like it never happened..

All things orange....

When I get a dog, I will paint him to look identical to this and alike will paint myself.
All things bone:
Halloween just passed a month or so ago and due to my crazy busy life, did not think to make plans or host a party or even one for that matter... the life of senior.
And so, I'm planning ahead in hope that next years will be ahhmazing. and so here goes.

"But i mean.. She's not even that pretty...."

Most probably one of my most overused phrases. Although true in most cases, I have decided to refrain from judging people persay. We'll see how long this will last for. Like a new years revolution really. They generally last for a month or so, maximum.

But with the passing of recent events, i've learnt its best to be nice and smile. So that is my new motto i suppose. 'Be nice + smile'. Although i restrict smiling because of my at times, good for nothing, asian genes i inherited from my chinese mother; fat asian cheeks.

Being nice however should be a little easier. I find girls and their bitchiness to be unnecessary. Yes it's all apart of 'growing up' but it comes to a point where i think some just do it for fun. I don't see how being nasty 24/7 is fun but each to their own.

Of course there are some people i will never get along with no matter how hard i try to but that does not mean i can't exchange a smile in passing and try to be nice. Like my mother says. "You don't have to get along with everyone but you can at least try and be nice". She is probably one of the nicest ladies you will come across. Never voicing a mean word against anyone. I however did not take after my mother but rather, my father and so i feel i should try and be more like her. That does not mean though that i'm striving for perfection and will be a delight to be around only speaking kind words. Naturally, i'll slip up and forget. But i will make a conscious effort to change my behaviour.

And so in closing, if i have ever offended you in the past. I am sorry. But if you're still hung up on it or holding a grudge, i mean really. You should have gotten over that by now. So, like the picture up top. "Let (it) go".

What do we have. Do we have anything at all?

I don't dress to impress, I dress to express

One of the most recent fads teen girls have just gone through is those damn jean tights. I'm sorry to those who got sucked into wasting their moola on a pair. I'm again sorry to those of you who wore them thinking they looked good. Did you girls not have a quick glance in the mirror before leaving your house? I'm almost positive you did as most girls spend more time looking in the mirror than anything else.
They are not flattering in the slightest. To those few who pulled off the look, kudos to you. You however are in the minority. Those of you i could count single handedly, who had killer legs anyway.. What im trying to say is, jean tights do not do anything for their wearers. They merely highlight wearers flaws more than necessary, stretching in places im sure you don't want attention drawn to and more.
Sure to you they were comfy and appeared to ellude onlookers that you were wearing jeans. False.
Granted my opinion on them is not shared by all; being ridiculous and unflattering to put it nicely but honestly girls. Stop letting the self-inflicted pressure to fit in dictate what you buy but rather "dress to express" rather than to impress.
I know im not the swarviest of dressers myself and i'm sure some of you find what i wear ridiculous; beanies, flat caps, ginormous rings to name a few. But I wouldn't be as annoyed if you girls thought for yourself for a change and wore what you felt looked good rather than societys opinion of 'what's hot and what's not'.

Pish Posh

People start blogs for various reasons; to keep family and friends updated whilst some create blogs solely on fashion or art etc. Mine however is more to put pen to paper or fingers to keys about anything really. Whether its to voice the fact i had a crap day or maybe to share my thoughts on a particular matter. Like a journal almost but slightly less personal.
