Closing this blog soon!

As mentioned in the title, I am planning to close this blog asap. It's not that anyone read this anyway, but just in case. Blogger is pretty lousy in the texts, and putting in links, pictures, and videos, and after using Wordpress for half a year (I thought I won't change to Wordpress), I grew to like it better than here, so I am just going to stick with my Wordpress account at: http://tamikurarisa.wordpress.com.

My closing down, means leaving this blog as it is, not cancelling the account. I know it can be cancelled and closed, but I am just too busy... okay, lazy to find out how.

Natsume Yuujinchou

For starters, I apologise (to whoever concerned) of the fact that I never posted the updates about Hanasaku Iroha or Ao no Exorcist at all mentioned in my previous post.

Recently, I am captivated by an anime, or well... manga as well. Actually I have been watching this for a long time since the early January this year, but I just stopped and never continued again as I was busy watching others, like Bleach, etcetera.

The name is Natsume Yujincho, and it might look very boring and uninteresting for certain people who only aim for the 'juice' in stories, but I personally think it is very good. The story was a base from the author herself, who said she has difficulty in expressing her feelings and intentions for the people around her. Maybe it also affected me, since I am a bit like the main character Natsume Takashi in his way of interacting with other people (not the ability too see ghosts, alright? -__-). 


I like the cat so much and still find it weird why the other characters in the story (except Taki Tooru) find Nyanko-sensei NOT cute at all. I always laugh while watching the anime, and especially when this dumb face shows up (look to the left).


The story has been going for few years now, I think maybe 2 or 3 years. The first season was titled Natsume Yujincho, consisted of 13 episodes; the second season was Zoku Natsume Yujincho and has the same number of episodes as well. And the last one, the third season which is still ongoing up till now is Natsume Yujincho-san, and this week will be the twelfth episode. The story has still so many mysteries going on unsolved, and I think that they might stop using the third season title, and start a new one again as the fourth season, but I don't really care, as long as the story still goes on and mysteries solved! 

The music soundtrack is very good as well, and I love it. The first season of the soundtrack can be downloaded here:


The tracklist are:

1. Kimi ga Yobu Namae ~Natsume Yuujinchou no Theme
2. Kusa Odoru Kaze no Hibiki
3. Meguru Natsu no Tayori
4. Nyankorasetsu.
5. Yuruyaka na Aze Michi de
6. Natsu Mado Hirakettanashi
7. Oushi Za no Kaijin
8. Yamiyo ni Hisomu Monoari
9. Hyakkiyagyou ~ Youkai Dai Koushin
10. Saoburu Kami no Kourin
11. Honoka na Kioku
12. Ame Yoru no Tsuki no Youni
13. Hyaku Kaminari no Kagura
14. Kimi ni Fureta Hikari
15. Atatakai Basho
16. Issei no Koe (TV Size)


... and many other websites as well! Just ask Mr Google! ^^

And the details of the CD can be looked here on the link. (click CD)

I followed Natsume Yujincho updates on Twitter and recently found something very interesting. I found this picture posted days ago on the account.



... and I almost died of the sudden breath attack. I couldn't breath and when I saw this picture, a very wide smile formed on my lips and the next thing I knew, I couldn't stop smiling and laughing! It's DAMN CUTE, and I want that plush! It's even bigger than my 1 metre Winnie-the-Pooh doll I have in my room!

Just be sure to follow Natsume Yujincho updates on Twitter as well on Natsume Yujincho

Tis been so long! Today's update for 「銀魂’」Gintama 213!

How many months have it been since I last posted here? Well, it's not much to be proud of, just two months and few days, looking at the last post on 24 June, yeah?

Well, I actually planned to use this blog for my anime episodes and manga reviews purposes, but in the end I messed up and ended up growing more lazy to even hit the button of my bookmarks of Blogger.com.

So, what's the story up til now? Just to be short about this stupid little, insignificant, unimportant, useless, depressing, selfish, hateful, disgusting life of mine (oops, too many adjectives there, innit?), I was unable to find a job since I quit my previous employment on April and has been hanging around just in my room the whole day up til now. My mum called me couch potato. Well, a bit I suppose, just the fact that I am not turning to a potato though. *jokes

Okay, well, yeah, I will probably start resuming about my normal activities here on Blogspot again, and my real, daily ones at Wordpress.com, which I've posted about earlier. The reason why I am doing this is:
1) I can't get my butt outta this chair.
2) I am waiting for my downloads of Ao no Exorcist and Hanasaku Iroha to finish. (the internet connection sucked this moment)

Even thought I wanna pee badly now, I just can't get away now.. I kept typing and typing and even typong wrong words now... (See typong.. doh!)

Okay, back to the real thing! So for this weeks' download, supposed to be ONE PIECE episode 513, Uta no Prince-sama episode 10 for yesterday, but I postponed it, in fact I am now, and will now try to postpone any other anime series downloading besides Hanasaku Iroha, Ao no Exorcist and Gintama, because I am keeping this series running updated somewhere on certain website. So, I'll probably need to handcuff my own hands not to press the button to recharge my mobile broadband for later next month... so to say, but I do not have any handcuffs! Yohohohohoooo! (*imitating BROOK, from ONE PIECE)

So, we will start with today's Gintama episode! Supposed to be Hanasaku Iroha and Ao no Exorcist now as well, but, I need to sleep now already, gimme a break duh, it's almost 11 pm now. Will update about those two tomorrow, the very first thing I will do after I get back from college, okay? (*winks at Mr J and Ms A)

This week's Gintama, I almost didn't have the guts to watch it. Just few minutes after the stupid opening song.. The normal usual ending of the opening song is always normal like this.


They were usually be able to manoeuvre their movements with that scooter and Sadaharu, but, however, it was like this for today's episode.


They ended up swerving the wrong way and fell down!! Even they admitted to their mistake, and ashamed, and don't want to show their faces, asking the cameramen to immediately go to the commercial!

Alright, that was already funny in the beginning one minute of the episode alright. *laughs* Back to topic, today's about... GHOSTS!!!! *dracula laugh* See this picture below? The moment my laptop shows this, I reflexed and QUIT my video player application at once. What a coward.


The story is this. Gintoki goes to the recycling shop to sell his broken VHS player (even with a Doraemon tape stuck on it, ha!) He was lucky to be able to trade it off with a Blu-ray player! However, there is one thing about it, the Blu-ray player has a disc stuck on it and... it is cursed. When he hears of how ghosts will come out from the TV screen from Kagura and Shinpachi, he gets scared and tries to return it. Unfortunately, he stupidly fell, and pushed the disc stuck on the Blu-ray player into it. The disc plays, the screen turns static... bzzt...! And a woman crawls out from the well! Whoa!


....
....
....

....
....
....

But no worries, since it's Gintama, and it's definitely not the ghost from JUON movie or THE RING movie. It's just a kotatsu-crazed ghost. Like this.



THE END

Ano Hana (あの花)

Ano Hana finally ends on episode 11! I thought the series was gonna be about twenty episodes, since it's written like that in Anime News Network, but I guess, that site isn't very accurate.

THIS IS SO SAD! I mean, I love the anime, but why does it have to end at 11? Not to mention, an odd number to end an anime too! The last episode is just 'WOW' and if you still have your human instinct in you, you will cry. Seriously.

In the previous episode, Menma didn't go to heaven right after the fireworks are launched, and it intrigued everyone in the Super Peace Busters. They secretly meet together without Menma and revealed all of their feelings, even Poppo who seemed to be quite relaxed about Menma.

In the end, they agreed to apologise to Menma but Menma was already on her way to heaven. Jinta hurriedly carried her to the secret base, but when they arrived, he couldn't see Menma anymore. He could only hear her voice, and he rushed out with others to find Menma.


In the end, Menma left them notes for each of them, saying her goodbyes. All of them finally got to see Menma with their own eyes, each of them properly bid goodbye to Menma with their teary eyes...


Oh dear, I thought it would be more to this series. I was looking forward to it but in the end... well, all's well went well. Below is the carving Menma added, means, "Super Peace Busters, are friends forever!"

Gintama Episode 213

Gintama episode 213 is out! I am so excited to know what happens, as well as a bit of fear that the movie might be over. I don't want it to end up like Yumeiro Patissiere, with 50 episodes and the next season Yumeiro Patissiere Professional with only 13 episodes, with the storyline still hanging. 





Well, yeah, Gintama 213 is out yesterday night. And the fight between Otose's family (Yorozuya) and Jirocho's daughter Pirako and Saigo begins! In just short time, they overpowered Saigo and Jirocho's men, but soon, they overpowered them with short of people and their house burnt.

Suddenly, with no warning, the fire on their house was extinguished and helps came. Starting from Tatsumi the firefighter, Tetsuko the sword smith, Kozenigata the police detective and Haji, Gengai the mechanic and Hasegawa with the robot army forces, the host club Kyoushirou and all his host friends, as well as Otae, Shinpachi's sister with the whole hostesses of her workplace, Snack Smile. Finally they brought down Pirako and Saigo, but one of the 4 Devas of Kabuki District, Kujaku Hime Kada showed her true colours and betrayed them by sending her men to kill Pirako and Saigo, as well as to kill Jirocho by engaging the Yato and Dakini clansmen with her. At the very end, Otose herself shows up in Kabuki street and with Shinpachi and Kagura asked by Gintoki to save Saigo's son who was kidnapped by Kada, Gintoki and Jirocho fight along with each other to defeat her men, but who will win, we will find out in the next episode next week!

Entry #7: Sunday, 22 May 2011

Actually I was gonna write something few seconds ago.
But I forgot what is it.

So, see you in tomorrow's post! :P

Entry #6: Friday, 20 May 2011

YES!  I finished my business plan presentation!
It's not actually something great. It's just four slides with almost nothing inside.
But it's worth telling. Since I have one thing ticked off of my to-do-list.

I actually drooled when I did that. Because I am doing a Indonesian-food based café. And I had to import so many kinds of Indonesian food to the presentation.
Nasi padang, sate padang, pempek palembang, babi panggang, martabak, cendol, bika ambon... alright, I am drooling again. *pushes all foods away

Well, I still have five more assignments to go, not to mention this coming Wednesday's 'not open book' test and group presentation which we (our group) haven't even talked about it yet.. since.. er..

Forget about that. Anyway, it's 21:00 now and I'd rather go and sleep. I'll just do those tomorrow. Meanwhile, I really crave for animes now, and I have tons of episodes waiting and grabbing my legs, wanting me to download them soon. But I don't have enough limit of internet to download them, and I was tempted many times to recharge my Vodafone for 6 GB plan this month. But in the end, before I clicked Recharge, I would always come back to my senses and quit Safari immediately. Then I would slam shut my MacBook and not even glance at it again.

Now that I am talking about it, 'they' grabbed my legs again. Oh shit, I really want to download it, but I just can't. What the hell should I do? Dammit.

Alright, the best way is just to turn off the Internet connection and go watch some other movies (that I have already downloaded or something). That's it. Just go away.

Anyway, I still have to wait three more weeks to actually download those episodes.

AARGH! What the fuck! Go away, go away! Don't think of them, just go away!

p.s  I am going crazy and you don't need to remind me of that.

Entry #5: Thursday, 19 May 2011

Alright, I am a total failure. I didn't go to class today, hoping to save train money and at least finish 60% of my business plan assignment. In the end, I got stuck at the plan for three hours this afternoon and after scratching my head continuously (some hairs fell off), I went to cook lunch and took a bath. Then I sat down again, thinking about the knot in the plan.

After few minutes, I gave up and went to make coffee. I sipped the coffee while I made a Facebook page of Ao no Exorcist. Then, I realised it's dark outside and the time was 18:00. I thought to myself, 'Alright, give up. You can't finish it today, so do that tomorrow. For now, just focus on your entertainment.'

Total failure. How am I suppose to face my inner self? (what the hell? who's my inner self anyway?)

Crap. Everything's crap. Like my parents' business, scrap metal.

Okay, I dropped the idea of using this as my diary and my new wordpress site as anime&manga diary. I need long time to learn about wordpress and I don't see any gadgets on that site like blogspot which actually defines the blog. So, I will make this everything; my crap life stories and my obsession and swear words. I'll probably just kick away wordpress or just not touch it at all.

Since I am not doing anymore of my plan, I am just going to continue on Facebook.

Until then, bye.

Entry #4: Wednesday, 18 May 2011

First of all, lemme say something about the news for today.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was such a failure. I mean, I loved Terminator. Just the first series though. But he disappointed every fans in one night. And his family. Again, I mean, it's 25 years of marriage, dammit. It has just been exposed the woman who's borne his love-child.

Some watermelons exploded in China. I mean, watermelons DON'T normally explode. It just did in China.

Some guy from Wisconsin ate his 25,000 BigMac today. It's freaking crazy. He didn't have any cholesterol or diabetes or whatever disease it is. And he ate 25,000 BigMacs. (video: Man Eats 25 000th Big Mac)



...

I don't have class tomorrow. Actually I have it,  but we're just not obliged to go. I will get to save 8 bucks for train.

I need to hasten on my business plan. Then I can actually and properly say goodbye to it next week.

I have a nosebleed for the first time of my 17 year, 3 months and 18 days. It was not oozing out, but it's quite dry and only seen when I tried to sneeze. Anyway. I am quite happy. (Don't look at me like that)

I should finish up now and do my plan. And other queueing assignments as well.

I can't wait to get confirmation from my agent.
I can't wait to go back.
I can't wait for this course to finish and fuck off.

College countdown: 11 days left.
Gotta do homework now.

Entry #3: Tuesday, 17 May 2011

From this post onwards, I am going to put the title of the post like above, since it's troublesome to come up with a title. I'll just come up with sub-title in every single paragraph I typed down. (not necessarily)

First of all, congrats to my high school friends whose exam results had been announced  yesterday afternoon. Of course, I didn't forget my elementary school and junior high school friends too. Congrats, to all of them.

Their achievement in high school somewhat made me sick. I felt awful, that is why I tried not to speak to any of them on chats or emails right now..

What? You want to know why? Piss of,  I have no whatsoever right to tell you my problems. Don't ask anymore, 'cause I might probably slam my iPhone to the wall.

I'll just focus on the fucking 'cutesy' business plan for Ross Summerfield now, and probably present it this Thursday and print it and submit it to him and never come back for his class as I  am going to bid goodbye and farewell to him.

Oh shit. I can't bid him goodbye yet. I still haven't known the results of that University, whether they can guarantee my entry next year or not. If they have, then I still have to tell Ross about canceling my Diploma course.

Anyway...

I  just woke up, you know? It's 09:49 now (when I typed until  here) and I am eating some kind of breakfast I have never met before, chicken soup+macaroni+some grinded meat scattered in the soup+frozen peas and carrots from supermarket. But it is actually quite good and I plan to use this menu for my lunch after my honey mustard stock for salad is finished. I need to finish it now today... need to peel some apples again. Fuck.

I still have:
-business plan
-wikispace
-wollonggaba
-hair saloon team work project
to do.

And don't mention the case study Peter Heywood gave us all, and it seems like he will have our assessment on the very last week of this course (probably 8 June) and his case studies are fucking boring. In the first class, I thought it was better, since there are only 5 of us from the original class. Now including those fast-track-mostly-chinese-vietnamese-and-pakistan-people, it has become boring and I would always sit at the back, no matter what. For what, you asked? To daydream and sleep of course!

Sometimes I would think, that I am really wasting my parents' money if I go to class and daydream, but it can't be helped. Ever wanted to pee so badly but the bathroom is in use? That is the kind of feeling. I wanted to concentrate so badly in my mind, but my body won't listen, and it kept forcing me to close my eyes or forcing my fingers to pick up the pencil and draw some mangas instead. In the end, I actually done a short story of a manga, I created it myself, and it's two and half pages of A4 paper already. If this drags down, it'll probably become a book.

If it's really confirmed, then I will need a luggage. Two of my luggage which stored most of my clothes; house clothes and miscellaneous, are all in my cousin's two small hand-carry luggage. I wouldn't bring them along with me, since it's theirs and I have to give them back everything. The iron, the hairdryer, the fan are all theirs which I borrowed. Although the cloth hanger is not included, Mel sis bought it for me, and she asked me not to pay her. I despise myself of people buying things for me, but it can't be helped, since this way of life is too frustrating. No one actually understand what I think. Even though my mum boasted she knew what I always think of, she's only partially right. Sometimes, it also might be some coincidences.

So the conclusion is trust yourself. I can't not trust other people, 'cause that is what I always rely on since young, trust people. Now, I will learn to look through people who are trustworthy.

Naw, what am I writing? It sounds so mushy, yuck!

Alright, that's the end of story.

p.s                  I am freaking obsessed by SPYAIR right now. IKE is so cute! Ha!
another p.s     I just opened MySpace. I have 38 friend notifications and 5 messages. Cool. I am going to add SPYAIR as my friend. And it's approved! In less than 10 seconds. Well, he's online.

the third p.s   I am also obsessed by 銀魂! (Wow, I typed this kanji myself) It's GinTama, an anime. It's whole rubbish, the story plot. But it's entertaining especially when you feel down or stressed. Patient people will like this. People who only likes battles and serious stories will hate this anime. I love that ばか金髪のsamurai.. I don't know how to write samurai, but anyway... they have some affliations with Bleach, since their show airing is on the same day every week. Some meanings and words in Bleach such as Bankai in Gintama is also mentioned. From Naruto as well. Which is why it's funny. Haha.

the fourth      I am currently reading new manga. 青野の祓魔師 (AO NO EXORCIST); ao means blue. It's really good. I watch it too. Only the first episode. I don't  have the capacity to download the rest of the episodes. Maybe it's better. I will wait till it's until episode ten and I get to watch them all in one go after my course finished!

the fifth I actually made a wordpress blog. But I haven't written anything yet. I plan to use this as my daily life diary, and that wordpress for anime, manga. yosh, it's settled! I will start decorating that blog... not now. Later after my course is finished..... zzz.zzz

the sixth Alright, sorry for dragging it until the fifth and now the sixth.. but I kinda remembered what I wanted to type down in this post when I am reaching the end, it's my habit. I am going to attend the graduation ceremony of last year's course tonight. And fuck it, why must it be night? And on weekday of all? Fuck it, screw it.
By the way, it's 10:30 now. I have been doing this for .... minutes....hours.. count it yourself.

download and.. talking about shit

Oh my gosh, recently, I am so addicted to downloading stuff on the Internet.

What stuff, you ask? Nothing much, it's just episodes.

I am freaking maniac in anime and now I am trying to finish Bleach series. I am now on episode #165 of the episodes (out of 320) and I finished the manga! Phew, it was a tiring progress, sitting on the chair and reading all of those, but it feels good. I wish I could work in manga publishing department or whatever it's called, because you get to read any manga they published for free! That totally rocks!

I know I shouldn't be doing this since my homeworks are in deadline and I have yet to finish even a quarter of them. That's why I am promising myself to focus on those and finish all friggin' homeworks and after this course of mine is over (which is exactly one month, four weeks left) then, I will go to my cousin's place to do the download for the last time. She's moving away probably in July or August, damn it. That's why I need to download every or any movies I have yet to download and which need a lot space to download.

Well, if my cousin's moving to another apartment, I wouldn't be so worried. But she's moving away and going to rent a room, which is impossible to have her had Internet connection anymore. So, I have to work hard in downloading.

Shit. Speaking of July, I remembered my previous post yesterday which is so full of darkness. I really wanted to do other course other than business, but it seems like my parents financial situation is not turning well at all, so I am stuck in Business. I have to finish 3 years of it and struggle through it and then find a job, then earn money, and live my life. It's not even sure if I could get a job in Sydney, I might end up like my cousin who had just graduated last year and unemployed here so he went back to Indonesia and now helping his father's metal business? I don't see any change in the business at all, and yeah, i don't want to be like that, but it's hard. I don't want to think about it. If I think of it more, the outcome will end up worst than I have imagined. I will just relax and live day by day. Downloading movies, and reading mangas, and listening to music.

p.s  if I could find a way to stay in Australia this July to January 2012 without going to university ('cause the intake is in February), then I would be much more happier than anyone else in this world.

Pissed Off

My mind is in a whirl. I really really feel empty. And useless.

On second thought, I really wish I could die now. Every time I peel apples, or pears to eat, I will always think, what will actually happen if I really killed myself.

Alright, quit being dramatic. Back to the real story now.

Yeah, I wanted to die. It's real story. There are so many things to finish; incomplete, unorganised, and indecisive. There are so many things waiting for me to say yes to them and tick them off as approval. But I can't just find the strength and ability to tick them and approve them.

I am now being stuck at the middle. Since the beginning, I am always stuck in the middle. The left and the right side never wanted me; they never thought of asking me to join. Just like I am Chinese but I am Indonesian too. I am Chinese living in Indonesian, but the Indonesian despise Chinese, and the real Chinese did not acknowledge us as one of their own. So, it's basically stuck in the middle. Someone with no identity.

My current state is about one choice which will decide my future. I am being stuck because of one reason; money. Money is a scary thing, eh? It helps you in terms of purchasing, power and authority, but when you run out of it, you'll be chased by it and everyone else. You will be stomped and rolled around in someone else's palms who have more money than you, who have power and authority. Basically, the situation of having no money is like telling you to scram and die.

Of course, I am trying my best to have hope. Have hope in other people who encourage you, have hope in God who will always come to help, have hope in life. But what happens?

Shit happens. It's the fact. Nothing is going well for you, and it's always obstacles you are having each and everyday of your lives. Everyone else is having good life, they get to enjoy things more than us and their problems are always solved easily, but we are always having problems and it were never solved and they keep coming day by day.

I am now being driven to corner by 'money' and was forced to choose 'something' I don't like and not interested in. My nearest person did not get the hint I placed in the message, and seemed relieved that I choose 'something' instead of 'that thing' which costs more money, and pressure on their lives. Of course, I wouldn't want them to suffer, but I am the one who's like idiot now, thinking for the welfare of the people around me while me myself aren't noticed at all.

I am really a spoiled kid, I realised that. I know the situation is not going to change, but I can't help but to hope, because the other person gave me hope. That's why I have been trying to avoid that person and if I can't avoid her, I can't help but feel pissed off and angry because they talk like they are giving me hope, encouraging me to do what I want, and getting my hopes up. But after exchanging few conversations, they will start to see our hopes high up and began to stomp them down to their feet. It is like carrying someone and throwing them to the floor harshly. They did not realise they have done such thing, and kept doing that.

I decided to change the perspective of life to not trust anyone easily, even though it's a family. I will live by instinct, like how animals live, because I am raised and surrounded by untrustworthy people.

It's Always The Same Problem

It's been long time since I updated my blog!

A lot had happened. The autumn break has come and go and the Easter has passed (I went to Sydney Royal Easter Show) and it has been a week since the college started.

The new class was super boring, I was waiting for a chance to switch back to my own class, which sounds a bit impossible. And I quit my second fucking job, and trying to search for new ones now. It's hard, and I am really running low on money now. Australian currency is shooting up like fireworks and it's hard on my parents. Whenever I think of that, my whole day will be ruined, because I will end up thinking until I am tired, browsing for jobs until my eyes couldn't open, go out and search for jobs until my toes are swollen and legs turn numb, or I would end up not eating lunch or eat apples ONLY for lunch.

Oh yes, I am in such sad situation. I just couldn't find one and if I found a job I will hesitate a lot because I will think of whether it suits me or not. Life is just hard for me, I wish I didn't have so much imagination, it's flying everywhere and when I found a job, my brain will always try to think of negative thinkings to prevent me from taking that job, and sadly, the negative points I thought of are all true.

I just hope I could find something simple, cashier or moving stocks or whatever. Or maybe a word processing operator since I graduated from Certificate 3 Business and an ex-classmate said to me that it wouldn't be hard to find a job for my age because it's cheaper to hire young people. Well, that might be true.

I might want to work at a bookshop. Kinokuniya needs CV and I couldn't possibly have that when I have not even graduated from university yet. I have yet to try Dymocks, but I don't think they'll have any though.

Well, wish me luck.

Secret Garden (시크릿 가든), Hyun Bin's last serial?

I know this is last year's K-drama, but still I would like to share about it.

Secret Garden story focuses on Kim Joo Won [played by Hyun Bin (현빈)], who is a high-powered businessman and he owns a big department store which is originally his grandfather's. He is arrogant, annoying and many people, including his workers hate him. His life changes when he met Gil Ra Im [played by Ha Ji Won (하지원)], a stuntwoman who he mistook for the actress Park Chae Rin, and since their meeting, Joo Won started to think a lot about her and unconsciously imagining her all the time, which freaked him out, and he started to look for her every time he could. Gil Ra Im who finds him annoying, gradually started to fall for him as well, despite the harsh words and treatments from Joo Won. And in one occasion, their bodies changed, which drew them closer to solve the problem.

It's not waste of time watching this serial. When I first watched it, I thought this is very boring, but the first episode kinda left me an impression, that's why I continued with it. The reason I like this movie is because the body-switching occasion in the story, which is very hilarious moment, and I can't  help laughing all the time. I think Hyun Bin has quite the same role as the previous popular K-drama he played, My Lovely Sam Soon (내 이름은 김삼순) in 2005. The only dramas I liked from Hyun Bin are these two dramas. In My Lovely Sam Soon, he also played as a 'rich guy', the difference of both serials is just that his role in Secret Garden is far 'richer' than the other one. But he is still funny in the movies and yeah, many people said he's very handsome, but when you look at his face all the time, you'll realise that he's not actually handsome. You can call it a momentary handsomeness. Or whatever.

Both the serials have their 'mothers' from the male side oppose to their relationship or marriage. Maybe Hyun Bin specifically liked these type of stories eh? Haha.

Anyway, it is said that this Secret Garden might be his last TV serial for awhile, since he's going to the Army for at least two years, which is sad news to the fans. He enlisted to the army on 7 March, which is a month ago and he was said to be teary in front of his fans who waited to send him off and he knelt down and bowed to them. But his rumored girlfriend, Song He Kyo (송혜교) cannot come because she had to shoot for her movie. Here are some pictures.






Anyway, I guarantee that this drama's song is good, especially this title 상처만 by BOIS (Secret Garden OST 3, track no. , I love it so much!

Autumn Vacation: Easter coming!

This week is the last week of college! Hurray. yay, whatever.

I started working at a new place, a sandwich take away. It's not much to do, but still hard to memorise all the menus. I haven't memorised anything heavy for a year, since I graduated from Year 11 at high school. Studying abroad is really too relaxed compared to my home country. For example, in Australia's high school, you can choose up to (I think) 8 subjects, and all of them are up to you. In my country Indonesia, you are not privileged to choose subjects. You are just given chance to choose either Social or Science Department (sometimes there is Language Department as well in few schools) and you must study and pass all subjects of the department you have chosen. I was in Social department, and the total of the subjects are 15. Science department would be the same as well.

It's DST last Sunday and the difference of time between Indonesia and Australia has reduced to one; becoming 3 hours. And the winter is coming, we're currently entering autumn and the weather is like 16-18 degrees in the night and 18-24 in the midday. One thing to do: start taking out your winter clothes already. ^^

I am so confused with universities these days, because I was a bit stopped by 'fees' problem. My family's financial is a crisis, and they have yet to solve how to pay my homestay fee for this April which is due this Sunday, the tenth. Now that I have worked, that means my parents don't have to send me daily necessities money for me anymore, but living costs and also the incoming university tuition I am going to enter this July is not a joke. My parents accepted the reality of me wanting to quit business and take International Studies as my major, and I was recommended by my agent to go to University of Canberra, which is in Canberra of course. And the living costs and tuition are very low there, just around $16,000 per annum for either International Studies or Business. The highest cost, I have checked is in the science faculty, which is only $20,000, where you have to pay like almost $30,000 in Sydney universities.

That would be my second choice out of 3. First, I am going to focus on UTS, and find out the intake, and if it's not okay, then I will move to the second, which is University of Canberra (UC) and the last one is TAFE again, and taking Diploma and Advanced Diploma in Business, then Business again until I finish my bachelor degree, which would be hell for me, because I am already giving up in Business, even now, I am struggling to finish this course of mine. That's why I can't wait for June to come.

There is a slight chance few days ago that I might be going back to Indonesia and I know that would be real shame for me and my family. I can afford to lose  my face, I don't really care, but I can't afford to have my parents' face lost... they struggled so much for my tuition and the other families especially that 'monster' will sneer, I am sure of that. Anyway, if the subject I am gonna take is not going to happen for me, then, I have no choice but to choose TAFE and business. Back to normal.

It's 17.33 now.
And my room is so dark already. The sky outside is dark already.

This year's summer is abnormal; too hot.
I hope this year's winter will be abnormal as well. Snow maybe.

I wish I didn't come here.
I wish I was still in Indonesia doing my Year 12 and National Exam together with my friends.
I wish I could turn back time.
I wish my boss and my closest friend here weren't Koreans.

How I wish that I close my eyes now and open it again and see that I have taken my bath. ('cause I haven't)

:P

Hectic Day, But Fun!

It's 9.30 pm AEST now and I have just got home. This is my first time getting home so late abroad without my parents.

What? You want to know why I am home so late?

Ice skating
We went ice skating today. It was so difficult! I mean, my ankles and foot are sore all over. It's really hard, but I hope to go there again.

Me, holding the roller blade

 Faisal, who's totally gone mad, picking up a broken baby trolley to shelter himself from the rain

From the left, Faisal, Ada, me, Summer, Sai, and Qamber. It's a nice picture, I reckon

After that, we went to Faisal's house few stations away from this ice rink, without Ada, because she said she had something to do. Faisal cooked for us, and we drank whiskey and stuff...(I drank it, without realising what it was until I sensed the taste, because they mixed Coke and Cognac whiskey together!)

I thought that it was Coke. Anyway. I didn't get drunk. I never got drunk even I drank a full glass of wine two years ago, when my dad opened a bottle. And I drank a full glass of whiskey this time.

My mum and dad are going to be so mad at me if they knew I drank.

But, I will tell them.

Probably tomorrow.

Then, after the Pakistan-style dinner Faisal made for us, we sat and chatted. Summer and Sai tried to smoke. It's strawberry flavour I think, with the pipe thing, which I could not name it or describe it, but if you ever watched Alice in Wonderland by Johnny Depp and Mia Warsikowa, then, you'll know the kind of pipe I'm talking about. It's the one like what the caterpillar uses. Something like that.

And we chatted.

It was 6.30 pm already, and I could not reach my host to tell him that I have eaten dinner.

And we agreed to stay 5 more minutes.

...

In the end, we went back at 8.10 pm. By Faisal's roommate's car to the station. And I arrived home at 9.20 pm. It's the latest I stayed outside since I came to Sydney.

It's cool and I am not happy with that.

Because walking on the street in the dead of nigh with dark trees, it's not fun at all.

I am not afraid of GHOSTS.

I am afraid of COCKROACHES jumping at me.

That's all for today.

p.s  I actually saw a mouse.

A Week Passed... Again.

Haaahhh!!! It's another week again. And again. And again. Again.

I am so exhausted this week, with all assignments and stuffs and lots to think. I also have been losing sleep recently; I have been sleeping at 1:00 AM four nights in a row! Result is, my eyes feel heavy, headache, spinning head and starting to sneeze a lot. Germs sure love me a lot, don't they?

Well, it's easy to chase all these symptoms away. Just get a long night sleep and eat nutritious food; fruits and veggies. And not to look at the computer too much. But how could I not use my computer? I got another assignment and test coming up next week!

This week, my budgets results were out, and it's 38 out of 50. It's not bad, but I hate it. I was expecting something like 40 above. The results for John's 'Develop Teams and Individuals' were also given. I got 17 out of 20, and there was one question which he marked wrongly, and I got 18 out of 20. Well, 2 mistakes. I got all correct for essays. It's easy. Just put in few 'nice sentences' and he'll tick them right.

I got to hand in assignment last Thursday. And I did the assignment in a hurry. I really don't know what to do at first, and still don't know even I have submitted it already. It's just a report, of your experience in service encounter for 'Customer Service' subject. But he made it complicated that we thought it was complicating subject. Anyway, he's satisfied with my report, the linings and design. What can I say? I say 'Thank you' and went home quickly.

The head teacher, Ross is going to divide the class to two groups. He said because we have too many people. 28 people. He said that he was going to divide it if it hit 30 in number. But he said more students will be coming after the autumn vacation, so I think he might want to divide it early. He asked for 10 volunteers and told us to think about it. I wanted to move, yeah, since it will be in smaller group and not noisy anymore. My friend Sue also wanted to move and we gathered few people, 7 in number. Still, it's better to move classes, but I think Sue will probably miss Tim. Haha.

We took some pictures today. I brought my Mac, and I used PhotoBooth for these:
Me and Sue (Hyun Soo Bin)

I escaped from the frame. ^^ It's John (Lee Jeong Hoon) and Sue.
It's me, Emiel (Emiel Vastenhouw), John, Tim (Timothy/Timothee Riom) and Sue. I don't know which; Timothy or Timothee is his real name. French names are really complicated.
Me, Sue, and Raymond (Raymond Chen)

Me, Sue, and John

Monday-itis and Universities

Whoa whoa whoa!! WTH, I am so tired!

No, actually I'm just bluffing. I'm not really tired.

Haha.

I quit the job yesterday, and returned the uniform to them. At last I could breathe again. Whatever, I just don't want them to call and suddenly say, 'Hey, we got a problem. We want you to come here.' I am sick of that place. The other reason I quit is also other thing which I never discussed with anyone else but myself. But I won't speak of it here, since I accidentally told my mum my blog. This is just secret of myself, and only me and my inner self can know. Maybe I could drop a hint to anyone who asks. But, basically, I won't tell the whole story. Too bad, it's a good source for a story.

I suffered from Monday-itis yesterday, it means, can't wake up on Mondays! Even though I went to bed early, I couldn't help but feel sleepy after I woke up. Maybe some people put sleeping powder or something to me. It's not only yesterday, but I have been like this since last week. You can say that last week was the worst week I have ever had, lots of obstacles, and trials from God (basically, that's what I call it). And I have been relying on coffee since last week; for morning class and on every sleepy afternoon class. I am not addicted to caffeine, but rather, I am using it as a prevention from falling asleep in class. You can call it drugs too, but I am not addicted.

Well, yesterday after my uniform-return, I went to a shopping mall near my house. I have been wanting to that, sitting in the food court, use Apple Store's WiFi connection for my personal uses, since the internet capacity my host provided and my broadbands are not sufficient. It was also raining very heavily yesterday. And I noticed that everybody wore long jeans and sleeves because it was so cold, and I wore T-shirt and short pants only. I didn't think it was cold at all, it's only 16 degrees anyway. And I perspired a lot after walking around with laptop hanging down my shoulder.

I plan to go and download some more things again tomorrow after school in that shopping mall. I hope it's not a crime downloading things using their internet, I seen people bringing their USBs and plugging it to Apple Store's MacBooks to download things as well, why can't I? :P

I have been craving for Korean dramas lately, and maybe because of my coincidental approach to watch a Korean drama which I never really finished watching last year. And there, I stumbled on another drama. And now, I am addicted. My K-drama buried cells in my body activated again and now I even ignored animes! I downloaded the soundtrack, and damn, it was so good! Especially track 8. Here is the link to download the full album:

http://www.ihoneyjoo.com/soundtracks/the-woman-who-still-wants-to-marry-soundtrack-ost-full/

Maybe because Kim Bum was there, that's why my cells activated again. I have never been his fan before. When Boys Over Flowers was released and made K-drama fans crazy like hell, it was my sister who was addicted to him and bought magazines about him and posters too, I think. And bit by bit, I was also the same, and I remembered buying a tabloid of him once. And to the full extent, I made a fan page of him in Facebook!

Speaking of that, my anger cells woke up again. I was so angry on Sunday night, when I noticed that my Facebook page of Kim Bum vanished!!! GONE! DISAPPEARED! I have watched the growth of that fan page, from the hundreds of fans to thousands, to hundred thousands, to a million, and up to 2.5 million likes!!! And now it's gone, and replaced but another Kim Bum page which has the same name format as the one I made. And it claimed it was the real official page of Kim Bum! But that's ridiculous! I mean, the number of fans mine from the start, it has 2.5 million fans as well! And it was just made less than a week, how could it be possible to have 2.5 million fans in that time?!

I enquired te explanation to the Facebook Team, which I have yet to receive, and if I am really dealing with the REAL Kim Bum, I won't be happy either. There is also other page with the same name format as mine, but theirs aren't deleted, the page I mean. Why was mine vanished, and usurped by other user and stealing away my number of fans?! I don't like it, and I really don't like it. I really want to know the reason, the Facebook team is at fault too, even if it's real one, they should properly explained to me why it was deleted!

Grr, my normal mood has depleted by this Kim Bum trouble already, I am not continuing anymore! Bye!

It's Been So Long!

Wow, it's been so long since I posted!

Truthfully, it's only 3 days. But anyway, I feel like ages ago since there's a lot of things happened in these 3 days.

First, I had my interview on Wednesday after college. It took me long time to find the store, which was actually just minutes away from the station, and I should have walked through Greenwood Plaza underground, but, I really have bad sense in direction. Anyway, when I said I wanted to see the manager, there were a lot of people queueing and they just stared at me like I was some experiment product to be tested in the kitchen. I hate their stares, it made me nervous, especially the bunch of college guys with guitars on their backs, sipping their Coke while staring at me for a long time and I gave them a stare as well, until they reverted their attention to their friends. It was very busy afternoon with the men and women in suits from the offices coming down to grab some lunch, and I waited like half an hour until the manager called and asked me to fill in the employment form. Well, what about the interview? The fact that she asked me to fill it in, means I am already accepted before I went there. That wasn't interview at all. And when she came out of the kitchen, she immediately discussed the time I am available and stuff. Dammit, who cares eh?

Anyway, I had to but leather shoes, which I found just yesterday in lots of effort finding it, and it costs $69.95! Curse it. I still have my elementary school's leather shoes from Djuwita, and my foot still fits. Anyway. I also have to buy black socks.

I reckon the pay is very low, and I only asked to work on Monday and Tuesdays, so I could have time in the weekends to study. Let's just be frank; I am actually lazy. I want a nice good sleep and not waking up at 6 in the weekends just to go and do some fucking $10 per hour job. I am still not sure about the pay , but everyone told me it's low. That's why I saved myself two days off, and maybe find others more intriguing in the pay than this one. There's a lot of place wants people lately and I really wanted to try the  KOOKAI shop, it's jewellery or clothes, and branded things, but, I guess not.

It means that I have only 2 days to work. And it's in North Sydney. And I have 3 days to school at Central. So that means I have to fork out a little bit of money for the train eh? I could probably get on a bus to North Sydney.

Well, after I posted on Tuesday, lots of things other than this job thing also happened. The test on Wednesday I mentioned is NOT open book at all. And he wants us to not talk to each other otherwise it's 'death penalty'. I did well in the multiple choice, but I got struck in the Cash Budget! I thought there wasn't going to be an essay and I remembered him saying only 15 Multiple Choice, and it was 10 multiple choice plus an essay on Cash Budget! I didn't read that part, and I could only figure out a bit, somewhat understand the question in the end but I got struck in the words and sentences. It's language barrier, this one, and I just did what I could. Everyone got different results when I asked them, some got minus, some got thousands, some hundred thousands and wtf. When I asked for the answers, he said he'll give us next week.

And after my interview thing, the manager told me I need to complete the online training, which is actually like 95% of the job training, and do the on-the-job-training this Saturday. I need to complete it like 100% and the website is a hell. It got so many buttons to click on in one question and even they said it needed approximately 3 hours to complete it, I did it on separate days because of my tight schedule, and when it sums up, it's like 6 hours doing those. Anyway, I completed it last night, hurray! But that resulted in: I didn't have time to study for my Thursday's test which was today, this morning actually. I woke up late at 6.35 this morning and read through some pages of that messy writing of my dear teacher John, and managed to not only read the last page of the handouts he gave us. Even though it's open book, it's graded, and I reckon the questions would be as hard as last week's Customer Service's subject, but it was damn easy and I finished it on time, no worried looks on my face. LOL

And the next two weeks, I still have another one, and it's writing a report. And when he explained it, I don't know what he's talking about at all. It's hard. I still need to bring my laptop again next Friday.
And the afternoon class, that so-cute-Kate-McClear is so not cute. She's whining all day and speaks all day. You know what, I just realised she speaks like Julia Gillard, in the monotone way, and I hate Julia Gillard because she speaks like that. She speaks in the way like one-by-one-every-word, and very carefully. And it's like a nanny trying to make the toddler understand every word she's saying that's why she speaks like that kind of thing.

There's just so many to do... well, autumn vacation is just 3 weeks away and if I counted from next week, it's 2 weeks away. And my old friends in Indonesia will have their national-scary-crazy exam while I am here, enjoying vacation and autumn. Not actually enjoying, I will be asked to work full-time later. I still don't know if it's fun working there, it seems boring after doing all the online training, made me lose my appetite, you know. And hearing the pay is low and some thing like that, I grew to dislike it in the past 3 days and I wasn't even interested anymore in going to the orientation tomorrow. Screw it. Damn it. Fuck it.

I am so sorry, I kept saying 'fuck'. I think I got addicted to saying it, 'cause my friends all say that like everyday's meal. So, forgive me!!

Japan is still not okay and nuclear radiation is getting worse... might affect us as well, so keep praying!

Absolute Boredom

Oh my God. I am so, so and so bored sitting at home since Saturday. I didn't go out at all in the weekends, yesterday or today. It's so boring outside as well, I'd rather sleep. Even though there are so many shopping malls just 5 minutes walk from my house.

Basically if you go out, you'll end up forking out few bucks from your wallet or purse (whatever, it's the same!) and later regret it. I am someone like that, that's why I have been restricting myself from peering into shops and I WILL always walk straight home without looking left or right after college. Well, at least I still look to the right and left when I crossed the road.

It's almost winter now - the boutiques are all displaying winter coats and jackets, and aviators, and I really tried hard not to look at them. I love shopping for clothes actually, but not to wear them, but only to display them in my closet. That's stupid, yes, but I can't help it. I always buy some good looking clothes and ended up not wearing them at all. My Dad has the same problem. He just didn't buy it himself, someone bought clothes for him. He NEVER wears the new clothes. And when he actually wears it, I will always ask him, 'Is that new? When did you buy it?'. The truth is, the piece he wears usually is 3 to 4 years after it was bought. Can you believe it?

If my Dad is still single up until now, and doesn't have a family, I bet all my pocket money that he will not buy a single cloth. I am so sure that it would be either friends who sent him clothes later or his sister (my aunt).

Well, the boredom I experienced ended just yesterday night. I got a call from Hungry Jack's, and they wanted an interview, and I was like, 'OMG, am I hallucinating?' But no, it's real and they told me I didn't attach my resume. Thankfully I sent over the resume already and I have yet to receive her call today regarding the interview. I am so nervous already and it's stupid I know. I should go to doctor and find out what is happening to my heart. Of why is it always feeling nervous of all sudden. I might have heart attack.

I haven't told anyone about this yet, and I don't intend to. I will just say it when I really got accepted into it. This time, I have to thank that guy, because he was the one who inspired me to apply at Hungry Jack's. Well, he was annoying, and it took a long time for me to shake him off. And I just recently found out from his Facebook pictures that he's in Hungry Jack's as well! It turned out that he took pictures of himself wearing the uniform, (which made me feel goosebumps) and it struck me. And who knows? I got a call. I just hope I am not the only one who applied. There must be someone who applied as well. I mean, I don't want to do the trainings alone. I am used to be alone, but in this case, I'll pass.

About world news. Japan's nuclear plantation in Fukushima exploded again. It was said that another plantation exploded as well, but it's not clear. The government has informed the civilians about this and was told not to open the ventilation in their homes, which I thought is absurd. The electricity of the whole city comes from the nuclear plant, now that it's broken down, and they have little electricity, they're supposed to shut their ventilation in this winter? (they're still winter, like 0 to -3 Celsius)

It was also spread in BlackBerry Messenger, that Indonesia, Philippines, and other countries which are located near the border of the Pacific, are said to be wary of the incoming rain later today or tomorrow. Because the nuclear plant exploded, it was said that the rain is not normal rain, but it's acid rain, and it burns your skin or cause cancer, something like that. It's not confirmed whether it's real or a fake information, but of all possibilities, it could be true so bring your umbrella when you go out. Umbrella doesn't really help, in case the rain is heavy and it splashed to you. So, maybe you could wear long sleeves, cover all parts of your skin, except the face of course, or else you'll run into a pole. Haha.

Anyway, it's like the end of the world, really. This is Japan's most critical times after the WWII, and they also said that the tectonic plate something which broke and caused an earthquake and tsunami, made the coastline rose up (or down, I don't know) about 13 feet. Many reports has also reminded people to ask for forgiveness to God. This international matter has caused every people to worry and everyone is thinking that 2012 might really be the end of the world. The movie 2012 caused it, as well as the true facts that is happening now, like the earthquake in Japan. Or you could say, Japanese government is now more focused in the nuclear explosion and it seems like the earthquake and tsunami are not really prioritised now, at least not now. There might be aftershocks in the following weeks or months or maybe another tsunami, but the nuclear plantation is the most important now. If it affect the Japanese people (I mean the nuclear meltdown), the history might repeat again where in WWII, because of the bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki shot by the US, many Japanese women had either dead foetuses in their wombs or become completely infertile. Anyway, the radiation isn't good either.

Enough talk about Japan, we won't help by speaking about it. Pray for them and the world and repent on your sins! (religious mode ON)

I have test tomorrow, and it's unknown whether it's open book or not, and I am really stressed out. I haven't been memorising from textbooks for half a year now (since Year 11, which is my last year in high school) and I have difficulty in memorising even one page! Really, this is infuriating. I should knock myself to the wall.

Anyway, I'll end this post for today as there's nothing more to say.

Just Random Post for a Boring Sunday

Man! It's really boring today! It's Sunday again, and it's 13 March. I really wish it's July soon, 'cause I can't wait for my university life! Well, in fact, I wish it was March or April 2012 already, 'cause I really wanted to begin my Arts studies immediately! I can't wait to learn about international cultures and languages and also histories! It's nostalgic, reminded me of my History teacher back in high school. He was also my homeroom teacher, and he was strict as hell, but when it comes to his students for homeroom, he was very easy-going and let us do anything we wanted to do. In return, we always have History test first of all 6 classes and our questions for exam were always the hardest and the most ridiculous that you couldn't find in textbooks. But, since his name is the same as my grandfather's, I will forgive him.

Anyway, I didn't go out at all today. I need to save money... it's quite my habit now to buy anything I find interesting when I go out, that's why I have been locking myself in the room, either do some exercise or sleep or do my drawings or designed my dream house or reluctantly pulling out my textbook to study for Wednesday's test. I had yesterday's leftover congee for breakfast, cooked instant noodles and an egg for lunch and drank milo after that. Then I had my afternoon tea, which is actually milk tea, and drank it despite the hot weather today. I also did my ironing, it was hell, 'cause there was a lot of clothes, and the room was humid and stuffed. I hope it's winter soon. I hate summer. I still need to figure out how to live through this year's summer. Last year I was absent for the peaks of summer's hotness and humidity, because I went back to Indonesia (thank God).

When I think of the few months in front of me, I start having headache. There are so many things to do and to deal with. I felt like writing all the to-do-lists in a paper. My brain is so complicated like maze and tangled like a rope, maybe I have to upgrade it to a higher capacity. Or I should download Stuffit Expander or WinRAR to compress all the information I have in my brain cells.

Okay, back to reality. There is no way I could download it to my brain, unless this is dreamland and like in FAIRY TAIL anime, I use Archive magic like Hibiki from Blue Pegasus' guild or something similar. Once again, back to reality. I thought too much.

Last week, I have been through three assessments and this week, I still have another three assessments to go through. For Wednesday, there is that James' class for Operating Budgets test, which is unknown whether it's open book or not.. Thursday, for John's class, I have role play, teamed up with five people; John(not the teacher, haha), Sue, Meizhen, and Oliver. John and Sue, which are Koreans (real names: Lee Jeong Hoon and Hyun Soo Bin). John has been here for 10 years, his parents stayed here as well, so his English is very good already. He works as a sushi chef in a Japanese restaurant, and really good at cooking. He's really a fine target for me to tease, because his reactions are always so funny. =D

Meanwhile, Sue has been here for 11 years, a year longer than John, and she and John are always at loggerheads. They keep saying bad things towards each other, which is really funny and interesting to watch. They speak English to each other, which I was curious and asked them, and they said, it's more comfortable. Sue is 18 and she's really an Australian girl. Her makeup, her clothing, are very like an adult. Her boyfriend is a half German and half Fiji, her mother opened restaurant and with many branches here and she's really an outgoing girl. Clubs, smoking and nightlife are her life. And she's going to have a tattoo this Wednesday after school, and I am going with her. Maybe I should prepare some cotton to have her bite on it in case she felt painful for the tattoo process.

Meizhen, of course from China. She has the same surname as mine, and she talked in really difficult Chinese I couldn't figure out. It's very formal Chinese, and I am still learning from her bit by bit. She couldn't speak English very well, despite her high school year here in Australia, so I look like a dumb ass when I speak in Chinese with her and she looked like an idiot when she speaks English with me.

And the last member, Oliver. I forgot his last name. It was so hard to remember. He is from Netherlands or Holland, which is easier to remember. Basically, Indonesia's former enemy in the previous World War 2. =D He's still 19 and quite short for a guy, but he's funny guy and he was sick for almost a week and half last time. I should mark him as 'frail boy from Holland'.

Well, I have been typing this post since 3 hours earlier and still haven't finished, caused by dinner schedule and my finger kept typing wrong words, so I have to delete a lot... fuck it. Well, that's for Thursday's test. And for Friday, I'll have another John's class, different subject, and there is going to be a test. Last week's test with him was very awful already, dammit. Thank God it's not graded, but for the test this week, it's graded, so I have to work hard eh?

In conclusion last Friday was the most tiring day, because Sue forgot to bring my USB for our group's presentation and I have to bring my laptop to recreate our presentation, which caused me a sore shoulder up until now, dammit the heavy laptop. I should have bought MacBook Air that time.. phew. And then, after all the effort bringing my laptop and I was already in a bad mood, and there, the French guy who sat in front of me, Tim, commented on my Mac case like he's never seen it. And he commented that I should not use the keyboard cover, and I said I got it for free, but he said again like, 'If you use that thing, you won't feel the keyboard's touch.. You won't be united with the computer.' WELL, he's a computer freak, I should say. Every French I have met is like that. Like my computer teacher back in Year 11, a French as well and a computer freak. After that, we have a long break time, and he started to watch How I Met Your Mother, one of Australian episodes on TV and he kept laughing like an idiot with his headphone on. And there was one time when I was busy with my email on iPhone, he jumped up so suddenly and his hand almost hit my forehead, 'cause he's like waving his hand to the air and he was laughing like, 'Hhahah!!' Like a wicked character in movies you know.

Despite all the weirdness, my friend Sue said that he is very cute. And I was like, 'Hey, you have a boyfriend.' Indeed he is cute, I mean, he looks like a girl. He has girl's face and features, you know.. And his eyelashes are as thick when a woman put on fake eyelashes. It's natural, and I envy that feature of him. He just recently got a haircut. His hair was like pasta last time, and he cut it to normal hair like every guy has, and when John (the Korean guy) asked him about his hair, I guess he was shy, and he lifted his middle finger to John and muttered, 'Fuck.' Then I laughed, because it was very funny. John was going to tease him and he knew it that's why he did that. What a guy.

Well, anyway, I'll post more about this weird friends of mine next time when I get bored again. Until then. Fare thee well. LOL
