what an epixxxx week its been!

first up - HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY JURI HAN!!! your party was FANTASTICHEE :)
but omg i look so trashed at your party, even though i remember not being that bad! i swear!

been waking up at 12 everyday lately. its the bomb. no better recovery other than watching bucket loads of youtube including ausntm (go tahnee and claire!). and i've sooo nearly finished kafka so really looking forward to researching that book a bit.

loving catching up with old ruse friends like - HURRO SYLVIA! and my anita luong who made me feel so loved :) freakin its insane how ruse friends seem to be the ones we end up playing with and missing most, so looking forward to all the 21sts this year and catching up with ppl.

oh btw hi simon kim! hehe i really like how there's this little community starting :)

hmmm that is all for now, enjoy your hols everyone!!!!

its back!

i know i'm meant to be studying.

but this is one of my top 10 favourite shows. watch it now while gossip girl, 30 rock, himym, antm, lost, and scrubs (sad!) aren't showing.


its about this single mother of 2 boys whose husband has died, so to support the family she becomes a weed dealer. AWESOOOOMMMMEEE! srsly, its one of the most off-beat, funny, riveting and controversial tv series around. plus mary-louise parker is a freaking milf. no really, her weed is actually called milf weed.


ohhhkayyy... backk....to...study....

IAMALIVE (barely)

exams are taxing on one's health.

analyse and discuss with reference to medical journals to verify your argument.

randomly, just letting my 3 readers (hello ashley!) know that i'm planning to go to Shanghai at the end of the year to do a law subject! yay! its nothing like juris EPIC TRIP TO MILAN FOR A WHOLE FREAKING YEAR! but it'll be for 3 weeks, then i am planning (fingers crossed) to go to Tokyo from there!

Irrationality

God. I may have started liking blogging.

....
NAH Im just procrastinating cos I dont wanna do this assignment.


This post is not going to make sense. But sometimes I DON'T MAKE SENSE. And I don't think its necessary to justify this ever.

I can't speak for the boys, so I'm just going to speak for the girls - but sometimes, I think we feel like just being really irrational on purpose some days AND ITS NOT PMS.

I really hate that write off ..."oh are you pms-ed?" like that totally writes off your whole reason to feel angry or frustrated, like there's actually no substantial reasoning to what you're feeling, its JUST PMS. Even if it is... does it really make your arguments any less substantiated? That our arguments can be simply written off as 'that time of the month'?

I'm definitely not boy bashing here, I think its a problem of both boys and girls to write feelings off as a pms-ing problem. And I totally sympathise with boys who may be caught of guard by this. But I truly think this is a problem in which sometimes we're too quick to write off how someones feeling or even how we're feeling, no matter how irrational it is.

I'm a victim myself - if I'm feeling like shit and its close to that time, well yeh maybe its pms, but maybe its actually cos I do have a valid reason that's too difficult to articulate at the time.

Or if there actually is a reason, but I don't want to spell it out to someone because it might be hurtful, cause unnecessary tension, or make me feel like a whiny stupid girl. So sometimes I just blame it on PMS too - which really just makes me a hypocrite and perpetuates the problem...

Sigh. I don't think I made much sense here at all, but I'm just frustrated.

Maybe its just pms. hmmph.


PS. AHHHAHAHAH just noticed how tuned out boys (aka mattkang) will be from this post!

don't laugh.

i have a penchant for the olsen twins.

its sad i know but ive grown up with them and i really really really like their mishmash of styles!

and interesting fact of the day - i named myself after them! ahahahahah oh god.
here's the story.
so i'm four, albeit a precocious four year old for i already know that going through life with a non-caucasian name is an unnecessary burden.
enter my favourite show at the time FULL HOUSE. remember that show? about the dad and the 3 sisters DJ, Stephanie and Michelle Tanner? omgod i LOVED that show!

so i think to myself - i'm going to pick myself a name from the show! and actually i was tossing up between Stephanie and Michelle (god i have such a good memory of when i was young!)
but somehow i ended up choosing Michelle - and i haven't regretted since :)

especially considering the number of stephs i know- its RIDICULOUS!

and on another interesting note, my chinese name sounds relatively like "Michelle" anyway so WHAT A SMART FOUR YEAR OLD I WAS.

hmmm where was i?

oh yeh - so although they grew up to be alien looking midgets, i really love their style and their fashion lines.

at the risk of being a pretentious wannabe fashion blogger - i present to you their Elizabeth and James line.




I WANT THOSE GLADIATORS!!!!

coffee on an empty stomach

ok im updating this finally!

hello to my 2 readers muchos appreciation!

v. stressed. v v v v v v stressed.

uni is seriously making me such a worried and stressed person, which ive been like my whole life since ruse, but i thought i cooled off a bit during 1st year..

gahhh RETURN OF THE PANIC ATTACKS. so this sem has been MEGA LAST MINUTE MICHELLE which means its all coming back to bite me on the ass.

and yes - my 2 readers might be saying chillax, but oh gosh... sometimes i really wonder what this is all adding up to

sighs.

on another note - health warning: please eat something before you drink coffee. it is really not good times for my stomach right now which is rumbling like no 2moro.

also realised how loyal i am to azzuris (the no.1 coffee spot for usyd) - really needed a coffee in law lectures today, so had to quickly pop out in the break to a nearby local coffee cart and OHMYGOD IT WAS SHIT. Heres my list of complaints (man i really shouldve aced 'services marketing' but anyway..)
- 2.95 for a freaking regular which is miniscule when a large at azzuris is 3.00!
- skimped out on the choc of my cap - like srsly one shake of choc powder is more stingy than an asian!
- weak
- not hot enough

but suprisingly still did the trick considering how dead i was. hmm, sign of an addict - get whatever hit you can take.

ok that should be enough to satisfy you both for awhile! take heed of my health warning! im really in pain right now!!
