Brother from another mother! (or sister)

my feet hurt. not used to wearing heels anymore. lol. surprising yeah? 

had very interesting classes today. psych and hoi. psych was a lecture on Learning. it's quite funny, especially the associative learning part. it's about how you learn to associate a particular stimulus to a situation. for example, before you pee, you hear a dog barking, sooner or later, whenever you hear a dog bark, you pee. lol. imagine the situation. you're walking down the street with your dog, which suddenly barks at an ADULT, who pees their pants. lol, of course that won't happen. but can you imagine!? we can be super evil and kidnap(adultnap) adults, and train them in laboratories and set them free for the amusement of all mankind! :D

hahaha.

then we had hoi, (history of ideas) where we discussed about Darwin and his evolution theory. somewhere we started talking about genetics and how physical appearances differed from each race. omg, TOTALLY NEW FACT. my teacher told me that it's believed that humans originated from africa. so basically, deep down inside us, we're all africans. that was about 4-5 million years ago. then 100 000 years ago, we all decided to move house. or rather move country. and became chinese, europeans, middle eastern yada yada yada. i never knew that. and apparently, some part of our chromosome is identical to someone in africa. how cool is that. hence the title of this blog. :) i love hoi. unlike fai. lol. he kept cursing me, saying that it was my stupid question about physical appearances that prevented us from being let out early. lol. our teacher picks on him a lot. it's quite funny actually.

OH! yeah, and according to darwin:

• cockroaches (NOT HUMANS!) are the hardiest creatures ever! in the entire history of man. no wait, scratch that, SINCE PREHISTORIC TIMES. 
• humans are accidents of evolution. our already fragile ego is definitely taking a beating. you know how we think humans are the king of the world and all that shit?
• and we're all animals. which i think is true. i mean, our habits are different but deep down it's the same. like to defend our territory (land), we go to war. or to defend our woman, we put a damn ring on her finger. which is a good thing, instead of peeing all over the land/woman. disgusting. imagine instead of a pretty diamond ring, you get pee. ick.

so anyway, i gotta do ma laundry. bet you guys learnt loads from my blog today. sorry if it's too academic-ish.

weekend! :D

sat morn @ 11.11am, i am writing this. lol.

i had a weird dream last night. it involved the malaysian stock market, chinese pancakes, macadamia nuts and cotton candy. oh, and i think the beach too! i love the sun and sand and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore.

this week was quite hectic, what with me slacking off and watching charmed non stop. oh, my cousin is here, from msia! she's checking out trinity, may be coming in 2010. lol. anyway, i've been reading the primary sources for my hoi essay and i keep falling asleep. i swear i'm retarded. used to be able to read the most boring texts without falling asleep. maybe i'm old now. you know how old people fall asleep super fast right? lol.

omgosh! i just remembered a story i heard yesterday during maths. it's so funny.

-anonymous source: "you know what happened to my cousin brother who's still a baby? OMG. you have to listen! he was wearing pampers right, then he shitted. somehow he decided to put his hand in his pampers and took some shit out and threw it somewhere. after that, he took more shit and rubbed it all over his body. the maid tried to scrub it off, but it didn't work!he was literally a walking piece of shit for a week, with all the shit smell."

lol. i nearly fell off my chair laughing, you only see things like this in movies or cartoons man. 

my mum sent some things from msia via my cousin. lol. some of the stuff are pretty hilarious! 

i'm bringing my cousin to eat all the melb food. lol she's still in the melbourne rocks phase. whereas i, am in the melbourne sucks phase. the asian food here is pathetic. but hell, the gelato and chocolate, and nuts are heavenly, but you can't exactly survive on those now can you?

OH! did you know that a shrimp is born female and slowly turns into a male? or is it the other way round? basically the point is that, they are born unisex? lol. quite funny. oh and teeth are the only organ in our body that cannot heal itself. so we should wrap our teeth in bubble wrap. or save up for ceramic teeth caps. :) 

i wanna go home. i miss msia!!! :(

and btw, i now have a bigger daily planner, like those corporate woman kinds. from mummy back home. :D 

im hungry, so this is it for now! :D

i love candy

YO! :) i'm writing this on a total sugar high. so excuse the exclamation marks and the countless smileys than will no doubt appear here. :D

*see what did i say*

so anyway,today was a full day. but hehehe, i skipped hoi lecture to get my laptop fixed. oh. 

random fact!! apparently the powerful people have decided that laptops are no longer laptops, but 'notebooks', cuz loads of guys were putting it on their laps and their sperm dies. lol. so guys, remember, too much heat kills sperms. but then if you're a teen, and having sex ( i know the correct term is sexually active), i figure you should kill as much sperms as you can, lower risk of pregnancy. but rmrb ALWAYS wear condoms. (sue me, i had my sexual motivation lecture for psych this monday).

yeah, moving on.. i nearly died when i thought my entire hard drive was erased. but thank god it wasnt. lol. and now i have both windows and mac operating systems in my mac. say i'm god. :D another great thing, during english class, the teacher gave us  video to watch on the atkins diet and lol, she left for a meeting after that. muahahaa. we all left damn early. we were supposed to discuss lots of things without her, but we left anyway. muauahahhahahaa. we're bad. :D:D:D:D:D

gonna watch the dark knight later. :) oh, and bettina liano makes damn nice skinnies. omg. so confy. i like! :D 

i went to flinders yest. and went on the ferris wheeeelll! i love ferris wheels and meerry-go-rounds. but i'm too old to go on merry-go-rounds. too malu. :( but i still wanna go! and cotton candy. and caramel popcorn. yummyyyyy.

lol. about my psych tutor. new tutor. cuz reshuffling or something. wtv not important. he's so adorable. his name is james.teehee.inside joke. damn cool. he gives us candy every week. and its like different kinds of candy in a big ass bucket. and you get to choose and take as many as you like. which explains my total sugar high now. i had 3 twix bars, a snickers bar, yummy jelly (the hamburger, hotdog and pizza kinds)... den i got super ass high. and kept askig nonsensical questions. it was so funny, and when he looked at me i just giggled like a kid. even small little things made me laugh so much. like when he tripped over somethng (an everyday occurence for me), i burst out laughing like it was the funniest thing ever. and i asked him whether he had a pet, and whether he had a car. lol. he stays in st kilda, and has a private practice in addition to teaching us and he's also working on his phD. about blogging. funny huh. i'm blogging about my teacher that's researching about blogging. blog blog blog. don't you think that if you repeat 'blog' many many times it becomes a funny sound instead of a word? TRY IT!

anyway, off to make jellyyyy/agar-agar!

:D

row times column.

hey loyal readers. lol. (insert sarcastic comment)

today was a super eventful day. why? 

glad you asked. :D firstly, i started my first maths lecture of the term, and this time instead of just being maths 1, it's now maths 1A and maths 1B. wow right? lol. i'm in maths 1B btw. so anyway, my lecture theatre was relocated to some other building which sucks. hard to see anything, stuffy and somehow the lecturer didnt turn on the lights, no wonder i'm getting blind. bah. but i learnt a lot of 'new' things today. like 'row times column' lol, obviously i'm doing matrices. lol. which reminds me, the first thing that the lecturer thought was:

'matrix'-singular

'matrices'-plural.

wow, thank god she taught me that. i think i nearly killed wen ting and michele mumbling 'row times column' to myself. and wen ting gave me a 'milk coffee sweet' aka high class kopiko. haha. quite funny actually. i kept laughing during class, for some unknown reason. oh wen ting's birthday is coming up! a month from now actually, as she kept telling me.

after that, we left for economics. by we i mean nick, shuaib and i. it was colddddd. stupid shit rain. :( i wore like 4 layers today, cuz i didnt want to wear any jacket :bra, tank top, t shirt, and hoodie. damn retarded. i astound myself with my retardation. had class with hua yu! for once he came! :) he says he loves my arm pit and slippers. hehe.

came back for lunch, and just before i left for my maths tutorial, which i was dreading my whole entire holiday+school week, (getting results), i checked the trinity website. and saw my results! was so giddy headed after that. lol. was walking to class and i was seized by the thought that i may have mislooked! nearly peeed my pants. so i prayed and prayed till the teacher gave me back, and yes! i was correct. hehehe. *Drum roll please* i got 90%! YES. improved by a whoopppingggg 20%. everyone congratulate me now. 

after that i was on cloud nine and bounced everywhere, and totally annoyed my entire english class with my weird comments and my suddden laughter and giggles. pei qi joleen and carmen all thought i was mad. and refused to layan me. :(

o!H!HH! i played foos today. lol i suck so bad at it it's not funnyyy. but it's quite fun though. great way to waste time. and get dirty hands. but whatever, it's so, exciting. 

yeah anyway, im too lazy to continue my wonderful narration of my day. so bye.

ps. guys, don't eat too much broccoli. on one hand it prevents prostate cancer, but on the other, it makes your semen taste bitter. (lol. i learnt that today!)

ps2. i miss msia so much. wanna go home (cue michael buble-home)

welcome back!

yes i know, i seem to have totally forgotten about my blog. but i assure you i haven't. just been really busy with the holidays and all. had a whole ton of fun with daryl and kevin! :) wish it lasted longer though. 

well, i wanted to go back in sept, since i haven't been home in yonks, but my mum was like, are you crazy? can't you wait another two months and come back in dec? so i got rejected. sniff sniff.sucks yeah? what to do. now i gotta start planning stimulation for my september holidays. YES i know, how come i don't have any priorities and plan my academic term?! cuz trinity does it for me. lol.maybe i'll go to canberra? :) to see kev. we'll see.

so my first week back to college. god the stress has already started. 2 essays due in 6 weeks, and another literature one coming up before the end of the term that i have to do in addition to the lots of studying i have to do for my term 3 exams. and planning for prom. geez. 

got my results back and i'm pretty happy with them. :D since it's my blog, i shall post it. wheeee. sue me for being happy about my results. (i don't know my maths results yet so aren't celebrating too hard)

History of ideas-16.5/20 which is 82.5%

English-17.38/20 + 9.75/10 (oral) which is 88.67%

Psychology-91%

Literature-26/30 which is 86.7&

Economics-33/40 which is 82.5%

don't ask me why i converted it all to percentages. it's easier for me to judge how well i'm doing. 

*trembles about maths*

oh, i'm thinking of moving into will's court! that place is fantastically awesome, but quite far from my campus, which is why i'm hesitating. also, how do i convince my parents?

haven't been going to the gym for like a month, lol. too busy and now i'm too lazy. need to get motivated. but i haven't gained any weight though. whee. must be the cold, body burns all the fat to stay warm. that's wat i think anyway. lol.

i learnt something from my economics teacher today, apparently right, our hair follicle shape determines how our hair looks and there is a hair spectrum. one end is chinese hair, and the other is the african style hair, which ranges from flat and straight to poofy and curly. so anyway, he said, that if your hair follicle is flat, then your hair will be flat and so on la. quite interesting. it's damn weird that he seems to know stuff about everything. lol. should sit down one day and talk to him about everything under the world. maybe bring a notebook along too. lol.

anyway, i'm so not used to staying alone anymore. wat with me not spending my entire holidays alone. 

speaking of holidays, the shopping in melbourne is FANTASTIC in june/july! SALES EVERYWHERE. although, what really pissed me off was that, after having buying stuff at a certain percentage off, they suddenly add an additional percentage discount. so it's like if only i knew and waited, i could have bought it at a much much cheaper price. feels so cheated. sniff sniffffff! :(

anyway, my fingers are getting tired. so i shall bid you adieu. 

:)

birthdays memories!

2 days late blog about my birthday. but i've been super busy. due to my lovely lovely friends. *smiles like a retard*

hehehe. i shall start with the night before the MOST IMPORTANT DAY OF THE MILLENNIA! cooked steak for leroy anya and adam. man i'm a good steak cooker. :D well, it's pretty easy thing to do. but anyway, i shall take pride in that. and then, at around 11 ish my sweetheart called and talked to me until it was 12! and wished me a happy happy birthday. :D lol. then adam started singing his stupid rendition of the happy birthday song. lol. he's very proud of the fact that he's the first one to sing me a birthday song. lol. OH wait. rewind. before that, adam and i went to brunetti's for prebirthday tea. :) had chocolate tart and my favourite-CHEESE CAKE. 

so anyway, after a while stoning in adams place, we started watching this show, which i've no idea what it is. and then, dev, shuaib and adil knocked on adam's door and came in and started wishing me happy birthday! :D heheh. so sweet. after a while, i tried to stay up and continue watching the show. but i couldnt concentrate. lol. i think adam got annoyed with me. kept asking him wat that show was about and interrupting him. lol.
