Sigh.

Oooh. I gotta new laptop! Should take some photos of it! ^^

I'm quite boring atm.. I'm tired.. heh. Sorry. Hopefully my next entry will be more exciting than this one. And oh yes, I remembered something... drinks with Chloe Fridayyy! Hehe. Coughdrunkandalcoholiccough hahaha...

Bored + Procrastination = this!

This Entry = The Procrastination and boredom and not wanting to study...


Sigh. It's not good! My procrastination. Last week I have like mastered actually getting to class on time (like it need to be mastered... hahaha). So I can now say I actually get to my classes on time! Lol. (Yus!)

Sooo, now what I am aiming for this week is actually study! Lol. Doubt it will happen... maybe like the first day? Lol. Ah, hope it lasts more than that and speaking of lasting, hoping my like on timeness lasts more than last week.

Sooo um yeah... this weekend! Has been just uni and the easter weekend which has gone by too damn fast!! Damnit! Just a lil recap:

Friday: Terri's wedding. And I shall post some nice photos haha.
Saturday: Worked. Then went home and stayed there for a bit and then was lonely at the apartment. Lol. Nobody was at home.... :( Was all good though, had someone to text and people were online hehe. The life....
Sunday: My no plans changed to Cara coming over to the apartment and that was fun! ^^
Monday: Chloe and Elaine came over and that was fun also. The day consisted of window shopping, shopping by others and not me coz I am poor lol and eating! Hahahaha. Oooh and happy hour drinks? Ooh, cocktails! Lol. And a little Cosmo reading. Haha.
Todayy: Nothing. Pretty much. Walked Shanel to McDonald's on Quay Street for her interview there and then a visit to the Quay Street Doctors? Shrug. Something like that... Aaand a visit to the Tai Ping place. And got like two drinks aaand that is when my budgeting went down the drain. Sigh. Bought some Chrysthantheum drink. It's nice! ^^
And then slept lol. Then saw Juno, which is awesome btw! Okay, maybe not awesome but it is pretty good! =D I recommend it! I really also wanna see Step Up 2! The first one was pretty good... haha... coz it was free, maybe? But yeah, Step Up 2 looks interesting! And did I mention the guy was pretty good looking? Lol! =P

And I should really be studying! T_T

But, I'm not.... sigh.

Oh damn, class tomorrow... three hours... fanfic! Oooh you should read! It's pretty, lol. Quite good if you ask me lol. 

It's based on the first episode when a drunken Summer flirts with Ryan. But in my fanfic, they hook up and Ryan actually shows interest in Summer.


Nowwww... photos! ^^ Photos from Terri's wedding, in  which everyone, including me looks pretty and is nice! Hehe.. =D

13 photos in total!


Soo yeah, that was my weekend! And uni again tomorrow!! =(

26 Ways To Know You're Chinese

  • Mar. 16th, 2008 at 1:19 PM
Sooo an update of my weekend... went to my friend, Terri's bridal shower/hen's night. It was great. Fun & games. And great (snack) foods! ^^ And got some cool dressup stuff too hahaha :P

Then went out to town with a few friends after drinking at our apartment and it was great! A good amount of people was there... Garron and his friend, Asmira, me and my friend, Ryan and Shanel, Matisse and Reah.

Heh. It was quite random how Reah and I just decided to go out but I'm guessing we were quite amped from Terri's hen's night. It really was a good time! ^^

Anyways.... Twenty-Six Ways To Know You're Chinese!

1. You unwrap gifts very carefully, so you can save and reuse the wrapping (and especially those bows).

2. When there is a sale on toilet paper, you buy 100 rolls and store them in your closet or in the bedroom of an adult child who has moved out. (hahaha.. done that before! $10 for 100 I think at Warehouse! Woot! :P)

3. You keep a Thermos of hot water available at all times.

4. You save grocery bags, tin foil and tin containers. You use the grocery bags to hold garbage.

5a. You hate to waste food: Even if you're totally full, if someone says they're going to throw away the leftovers on the table, you'll finish them (your mum will give a lecture about starving kids in Africa).

5b. You have Tupperwares in your fridge with three bites of rice or one leftover chicken wing.

6. You don't own any real Tupperware - only a cupboard full of used but carefully rinsed margarine tubs, take out containers and jam jars.

7. You have a collection of miniature shampoo bottles that you take every time you stay in a hotel.

8. You wipe your plate and utensils or wash them in a small basin of hot water before you eat every time you go to a restaurant.

9. You own a rice cooker and slow cooker.

10. You wash your rice at least 2-3 times before cooking it.

11. You fight (literally) over who pays the dinner bill.

12. You have a teacup with a cover on it.

13. If you're under age 20, you own a really expensive Walkman,
if you're over 20, you own a really expensive camera. (and camera!)

14. You're a wok user.

15. You only make long distance call after 7pm.

16. You prefer your shrimp with the heads and legs still
attached - it means they're fresh.

17. You never call your parents just to say hi.

18. If you don't live at home and when your parents call, they'll ask if you've eaten, even if it's midnight.

19. Your parents tell you to boil herbs and stay indoor when you get sick. They also tell you not to eat fried foods or baked goods because they're 'heaty' (yeet hay in Cantonese)

20. You email your Chinese friends at work, even though you only sit less than 10 feet apart.

21. You always cook too much.

22. You eat every last grain of rice in your bowl, but don't eat the last piece of food on the table.

23. You starved yourself before going to all you can eat buffet.

24. You know someone who can get you a good deal on jewelery or electronics or computers.

25. You own your own meat cleaver and sharpen it.

26. Your toothpaste tubes are all squeezed paper-thin

  • Feb. 29th, 2008 at 4:22 PM

Wow. I haven't updated in three days... which isn't long. Still within a week.

Sooo... I have moved into my apartment in the city. ^^

And am going to Hamilton tonight and clubbing! Hahahaha.... Aw, miss my Hamilton friends so much! Haven't seen any of them apart from Shanel in like over three months!!!!

I was going to leave for Hamilton straight after work but then I realized (I don't know why this didn't occur to me earlier... -__-) that there was after work rush hour traffic! T_T

So, yeah probably will be leaving at about 7 tonight.

Oooh yes, we have internet and phone in our apartment!!! ^_^

I would give you the number but I think I got the wrong one -__- oops. Gotta get it correct.  Mmm yes.

So yes.

My weekend is going to be spent in Hamilton! ^^ Visiting friends :)

I think that is all.

Oooh and today is my last like 3 minutes at work! Last day! hahaha... 3 minutes. Heh.

So, yes I think that is all.

Have a good weekend everyone! ^_^

And then it's uni next week!! T_T

  • Feb. 22nd, 2008 at 4:15 PM

Almost eveyrthing for the new apartment is sorted...

  • Electricity/telephone/internet connection/account
  • Signed the contract/agreement
    • Just gotta get Reah to sign it and be a part of the tenants so we're all equal on it.
  • Open a bank account for the rent and expenses
  • Move in! (hahaha)

So YUS!!! ^^ 

And got something to look forward to (Hamilton and seeing everyone!!) at the end of next week before uni begins and then my job at Property Solutions ends.... :( was cool working here! it's the people! ^_^

And tonight is the Chinese Lantern Festival where there is going to some awesome and cute and adorable lanterns floating around! ^^ Yusss! And am thinking of maybe clubbing tonight... and then staying at the apartment or just chilling at the apartment! haha.. ^^

So, yus, life is goood!

So. I wrote and setup a post with pics of my apartment that I'll be moving into later next week but I accidentally clicked outside of this box and pressed the backspace button!! T_T So it's gone and couldn't be bothered putting it up again till now coz I am at work with nothing to do.....

Apartment pics under.... )
So. Yes. I kinda moving out. I plan to come home weekends, especially if I have a job at Pet Corner or Gloria Jean cafe but I kind of realized that weekends is also the time I go out a lot too so I may actually be in the city.... hmmm...

But, yes, wish me luck and definitely come visit!! ^^ 

Oh yes, I'll be living with Reah and Garron.... yeah I know what one is thinking.. 

Jury duty was boring. Lol. It was. It just consisted of like assignment of potential jurors/summoned public members to four cases then a further "balloting"/selection of the actual twelve jury members. Then the people who didn't get picked/"balloted" was formally released. I then worked. Lol. I went to SJS after and hey! There was a job so that was all sweet! ^^ 

Sooo... this week I am going to be qutie rich, I think! If I get paid from the jury duty this week.  I have a lot of stuff that needs to be bought.... =_= Sigh.

Quite expensive stuff too.... my vehicle registration. And something else but I have forgotten. Haha! But yes.

Yesterday I stuffed (acutally: folded and put statements into) envelopes. It was for this company called Auckland Law Soceity. And yeah... Got paid $12/hour! :D

So yeah... that's whats going on in my life this week.... not much. Gonna be viewing the rental agreement on Friday morning. Got the morning off. And this weekend... Lantern Festival! ^^ I can't wait! I saw them setting up on my way to Chancery Street, where the place I worked at yesterday was located and I saw this cute as blow-up animal display! ^_^ Gonna be taking HEAPS of photos and ahhh.. yes, gotta go get a pack of spare rechargable batteries...  so can be snap happy! Hehe.

So yes. Can't wait. Maybe will even see if it's possible to stay there and so I don't have to drive! haha.Then I won't be breaking the law! Or... two.. haha.

Oh yes, and I got given something real interesting today by my boss... hahaha... it was a.... I shall just take a pic later and let the pic do all the speaking. Lol.

Any guesses? :P

Goodness All Around~

  • Feb. 14th, 2008 at 8:46 AM

Last night after work I went out to the city to Rakino's and met up with Beth and her friends and Garron. It was good. ^^ Beth's friends are awesome. And funny. Funny people are great. Lol. We stayed at Rakino's for about an hour or two then went on to this bar that I don't remember the name of... it's on Queen Street, opposite the road from Sky City Metro. I got some pototo wedges-type stuff and lemonade. Cost me $8!  Was quite happy about that, lol ^^ 
For the next two hours, just talked with her two friends, Gibb and Sarah. Also met Sally when we were at Rakino's but she had work.. 
Funny thing is that these people were at her (Beth's) party a few weeks back.. and I don't think I met them. That Gibb guy is funny.

... then just chilled on the net for like the next couple of hours going to bed at like 1.30 am.. lol =_= 
Then got up at 20 to 8 this morning.. I actually feel quite awake today...

ooh and Happy Valentine's Day~! ^^ 

My Valentine's Day plans doesn't consist of much other than meeting up and hanging out with Leitita and Matisse. Letitia may score that guy's number, or she's going to give hers.. but yes. Some Singleness Appreciation?
Yes, I quite like my singleness, although I don't think I'd consider myself single as I've never had a boyfriend and so yes.

I'm rich too. I got $75 from selling my iPod and digital camera on trademe. That's both faulty... got $30 for my iPod and $25!  So yes, seventy-five dollars. Not too shabby! Now just gotta send it off today! :]

So yes, it's been a good past couple of days! ^_^ 

Oh and it's pay day today!!

Yus! ^^

  • Feb. 12th, 2008 at 12:00 AM

Sooo... I think the third good thing to happen is the selling of my faulty digital camera!! ^^ YUSS!! :]

Lots of little good things are happening to me!! ^^ Am quite happy... lots of little things :)

  1. Getting into AUT! *excitement!*
  2. Ovedraft going down - hopefully down by payday this week! Would be so awesome! ^_^
  3. Getting money/selling my faulty iPod and Camera! ^.^

And I think that's about it.

Oooh. Yesterday, Sunday was quite awesome too! I spent the day at Piha with Garron, Nandita, her sister and a few of her other mates.
Spent the day going in and out of the water, did some bushwalking/tiny bit of rockclimbing to get to this amazing view that not much people know about. It's great~! Also had a swim-ish in this awesome lagoon! Was real nice and at times just laid on my back.. ahhh~ niceness! And beforehand, went to the tofu shop and bought some snacks. So nice and so cheap!! But getting over it a little... its nice food. They melted, the stuff covered chocolate.. =( Also played sports at the beach for the first time... usually am just lazy and get a tan/sunburnt hahaha.

So yes. Great day!

And great life atm! Hehe. ^^

Oh. ANd I just spent about an hour or two uploading old 90's CD's.. such CD's as S.O.A.P (who remembers them?? I heard one of their songs at this icecream place at Mission Bay once when I was with Chloe and was bopping along to it! Hahaha), Boyzone (some songs, like When You Say Nothing At All (lmao..), B*witched etc etc. Hahaha.. 

After the renovation, my family (mum especially) had a pretty big cleanout of our shit and yeah. I even had a cleanout of my shit too and I used to have about like four boxes of shit and now I only have one! Ta-da! Magic! :P But yup, probalby chucked away alot of stuff or stored them in my desk drawers... lol

... My back is itchy...I think I got sunburnt. My shoulders are itchy and look a tad bit red also.. =\ Hmmm... I think i may also be peeling.

And you know what, I'm not having much success with my ADIML... I just like start but then never finish. I'm like attempting or wanting to do it like every 7th, 17th and 27th of each month and umm... yeah... not going so well... and I am not looking forward to how I have to resize each picture... =_= I wonder if there is a feature/option on the camera that you can set to tell it what size of the photos is once its uploaded... i wish. I think I can and saw it someplace but I don't know how! =(

Aaand, you know I can't wait to go SHOPPING after getting paid this payday. Dunno what I'll buy but I will find something! I think I may be getting over jewelery or maybe just Equip jewellery coz went in there and there was like only one thing that I liked... maybe coz the other thing I liked, I already bought but am like kind of semi-shopping for a bracelet. My other one (that I got replaced after the bow and arrow thing broke off... T_T) is now like umm... corroding? Lol.. after I left it on when I went into the water at Piha yesterday... damn. I also went in with my cherry necklace on and the only thing that 'corroded' was part of the like chain at the end.. Hm =|

So I think I may end it there as I have work tomorrow and should so be gong to sleep!

But yuss,  I am in a happy and good mood ^^

Goodnight all....

Oh. My. Goodness.

I am back into overdraft! T_T

I am nearly -$600.00.

Good I have a job..

I think it is what is causing me to spend so much. Coz I know that I have  source of income... T_T

Okay. You heard it here. Or I wrote it here first. 

I am not going to be going out next week. Till I get paid.

And goodness. I just got offered a beer. Steingleiger to be exact. Lol. That's something different. I quite like this job. But yeah I don't drink beer. Damn.. lol.

And that's not the end of it. Of my overdarftness. I still got like overdue owing... T_T

Tonita: about $10 (i'm actually not sure how much it is, but most probably around that).
I owe her for the Frozen Coke and she paid for me into GloPutt (this glow in the dark minigolfing place).
Garron: Something about $10 too but already paid him back half... but yeah.. sigh. 

Oh dear..

I got a drinks tomorrow.. but don't think I'm drinking. I'd actually like some cash to play with or well to see. Oh well. Hopefully I get on top of after this job. Fingers crossed.

So yeah that's my little update.

A recap of the week or few days..

work. going out. work. going out and work again. It's so repetitive lol. It's a good balance? 

Worked all week from 8.30 - 4.30 (sometimes more, but whos counting? :P) and starting from yesterday, I worked then went out to Garrons and we went to West city and shopped for Beth's present which is pretty aesome. I shall take a pic and post it up.. after giving it to Beth hahaha. And I stayed over at his. We watched DVD's - Hostel and The Simpsons movie. 
The day before, Wednesday after work went minigolfing in the dark at GloPutt with .  It was pretty alright. Glow in the dark stuff and decorations...
And then Tuesday... what did I do Tuesday. Go someplace with Garron and Letitia. Oh yes, town was it? Was gonna go to Hamilton but it was too late when we wanted to go. Letitia and I met two of Garron's friends that he made while working at Kelly Tarltons! Lol. They're pretty cool. Especially the woman...which I have forgotten the name of =_=. She spoke cantonese and so she conversed quite a bit in Cantonese with me. Was awesome! ^^
Then Monday, went to West City and Lynnmall with Leititia. I only worked like one hour that day coz stuff were down and yeah. Oh, the internet was down.. Yes.

So that's my week.

Documenting this day.

  • Jan. 23rd, 2008 at 2:06 PM

Sooo... I am at work and online. 

And I'm not like secretly doing it either. Or not supposed to be. I've like done everything up to now and my boss has gone to lunch.

This is a pretty awesome and simple job. For me. Just like typing up quotes, answering phones and then putting it through to the right people and dictaphoning/transcribing. Not too bad.

Wouldn't even mind if I worked here part time but I don't think they're looking to replace their former fulltimer with like part time...

But yeah its an awesome job. I like it and quite enjoy it. And, like I said to Chloe on bebo, I'm utilizing my fast typing skills ^_^

First Day at My Job...

Well. M first full day at my new job. It's pretty okay. The first half was good. Before I had lunch and then well it wasn't like bad but ooh, well it wasn't too bad.. Pretty much my job at Property Solutions is typing up quotes, answering phones and directing to the right person and transcribing.. transcribing. Ooh. Hmm... its interesting. It was alright at the beginning and then it got repetitive and boring. And then spent about an hour or so relistening to it again and just like being there while my boss was like making it make sense and such. 

My job's pretty cool.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Photos have come. Selected photos. Hahah. :P

So yeah. Car Break in. Only thing taken was Garron's PSP. Sigh. And I'm left with a (expensive to fix) damaged lock. They pretty much like took out ALL of my keyhole! Just sucks.. had an awesome day but... yeah. Asked around too but nobody saw anything and they'd all just like arrived so yeah... sucks. sucks. sucks. =\

Oh well. What can you do? Other than get the door lock fixed.

Something else I gotta do is like go for my full... =_=

And, my job is taken! T_T

How awful. Was like really looking forward to working.. or hell getting money. Sigh.

So. Yeah. I think that is all. Hmmm... yes.



So. After uploading the photos. Gosh. That is a lot of work but is worth it in the end. My favourite part was the comments! Teehee. =P

But yeah, hope you enjoy and like them.

I was thinking that this a lot of work but... I think I shall just like try it out for the rest of the year coz its a pretty good way to like keep a track of what's done. Better than describing it. And I have kind of copied the idea of
adayinmylife.

Their structure of it. Coz the first two photos I've made teasers... well also coz they were all in threes and it well not really seemed weird for a twosome but yeah... It worked out.

it took a lot of like effort to upload the photos and the like individually select them from the scrapbook feature.. yeah I know I could have probably just like uploaded it on photobucket instead and then copied and pasted the links onto here buuut, meh I dunno. But yeah, well it got done in the end. This is probably only like 1/4 of the images. There are heaps more. Like about sixty altogether! :o I know. We took a lot of photos. =| But its all good! ^_^

But yeah, overall, I think I may quite often (or whenver I like do something/ go out and do something) create an entry like this with images. Instead of like recounting it in words. So much easier too. And yeah. I have a lot of time to while away...

I need a job. *nods*

That is all.
