No One Does It Better

First day of uni today and it was sort of crappy.
Last night I couldn’t fall asleep until after 2 and then it felt like as soon as I fell asleep I had to wake up again.
There were two vans instead of the usual bus this morning and not everyone could get on so we had to wait until more transport came.
Had a double lecture and the unit seems completely dull but it’s compulsory so what can I do
Had another double lecture and this one was actually really good, even though I was getting really sleepy at times
I tried calling the shuttle taxi but they don’t run anymore.
I realised I’m going to get home really late (8 or 9) on Tuesdays because I finish class at 5:30
I lost my wallet but it got handed in so that was good
I had to take a bus from Pakenham to Dandenong because of train problems and the bus was bad and there was a really moody guy on it who kept abusing the bus driver.

Anyway

I’m going to write about all the things I did in the remainder of my holiday

Before I start, I forgot to mention that when I went to watch Sherlock Holmes in the city, I saw Nick Bracks(aka Steve Bracks’ son aka the underwear model) having lunch on Chapel Road. It was totally weird but none of my friends knew who he was.

This is him if you don’t know

Back to the holidays

· Went to Chadstone with Jenny and Yen. We had Wagamama (because band guys eat there) and I thought the food was disappointing, it was completely bland. Not worth it for the price you pay. Then we watched Shame (I will upload a post about this on my movie blog).

I saw Matt from YMAS tweet this today and thought it was funny

Also thought this was awesome

· Had yum cha with Diem, Priyanka and Viola for Diem’s birthday then bummed at Parkmore for a bit

· Susan and Sharline came over and we attempted to make a croquembouche for Jenny but it went horribly wrong and the pastry part went flat and tasted like salty egg. Susan has all the photos so I can’t post it on here. Jenny and Nugget came later and we told them we made pikelets so they would try it. Ayontika also came which was a surprise, really wasn’t expecting it. We all ate and watched My Kitchen Rules then watched Revenge and ate jelly with custard (the custard was gross).

· Went to Jenny’s house for a going away party. We played Band Hero as usual and ate lots, Jennie brought her polaroid camera which was really big and we kept telling her not to waste the film on us but she wouldn’t listen, the photos were really good. I don’t know how it started but Jenny, Susan, Nug and I started air banding. Jenny on vocals, Nug on drums, Susan on bass and me on guitar. We played about four songs and oh my god it was so much fun! We got pretty tired though which made me respect band guys more, they must use so much energy playing shows. Thanh and Tom were there too but they just watched it, if you’ve never tried it, do it! It’s SO FUN!

· Yen came over and we watched tv and talked for a bit until Susan came. We then left to go to Piyumi’s house for dinner. It was great because almost everyone was there and we had Mexican food which is always great. We also exchanged our ‘Valentingles’ presents, I had Susan so I made her cupcakes. Vivian had me and she made me an adipose toy!!! (from Doctor Who)

How cute is it!

Sneha made Nayomi a boyfriend pillow which we all laughed at, it was really well made. Nayomi called it Klive Williams (i think, something to do with Kanye West)

We then gave Tess her going away present which was an engraved stethoscope

Piyumi, Naymi, Ayontika and Sneha took tequila shots; the rest of us did them with soft drink. Nayomi got a bit tipsy and kept making us laugh with the things she would say.

· That’s pretty much it, the last week of holidays I basically just stayed home and woke up late and did very little. I managed to watch a few movies and brought my total holidays movie count to 56 movies (it’s decent but I’ve done better).

Now it’s back to uni and dullness. Well except Soundwave!

Next Thursday is this sidewave

I REALLY want this poster but I haven’t seen it anywhere except at Nandos at Chadstone and I couldn’t ask them for it. Damn

I wasn’t originally planning on going to this sideshow, I mean I wanted to but money issues and all that but then once the Soundwave timetable went up I saw that Cobra Starship and A Rocket To The Moon were playing at the same time and I really want to see both of them so I had to go to one of their sideshows and ARTTM was cheaper.

Friday is Soundwave! I feel like there aren’t that many bands I REALLY want to see but it should be great!

This is the timetable, unless it’s been changed again

I’ve highlighted all the bands I want to see.
I know I’ve left out a few and I’m not going to end up seeing all of them but yeah. Marilyn Manson is highlighted because I can’t not take a look at him, I mean I would be so close and couldn’t miss seeing him. I say this now and I’ll probably miss him because of clashes and stuff. Bush is there because of Gavin Rossdale, I want to see him because he’s in one of my favourite movies. I haven’t properly looked and worked out my schedule yet, need to wait for the signing times but I know Cobra Starship isn’t signing, massive bummer! I hope I get to meet them somehow.

--

I wrote that two days ago and I don’t remember what I wrote but I will continue with this post

So yesterday when I got home from uni I saw that I had an e-mail from the Hi Fi

There was more but OMG right!

I got super excited but then Jenny had already bought two tickets for the show so the excitement was gone and I tried to get someone to buy the tickets but no such luck. I contacted the hi fi people and they said they don’t do refunds, they told me to give the free ticket to a friend and make them buy me a drink at the show (this could work if I actually knew people who like these bands) then I told them I couldn’t find anyone to give the tickets to so they said that’s alright and that I could just keep them and do whatever I want with them, also told me I could sell the tickets I bought but yes that hasn’t been successful. Damn what a waste of two free tickets, It’s annoying me because I still have to pay for the tickets and I know it’s only $40 but I’m so broke at the moment any money saving helps.

I entered another competition to win this prize pack but seeing that I won this it’s highly unlikely that I’ll win the next one, damn wish I could have won that instead.

Today I didn’t go to uni because I only had one lecture so I went to dandy and got my eyebrows done and the lady did a pretty bad job.

I realised I have nothing to wear tomorrow; I’ve run out of t-shirts. I wish they sold good t-shirts at the shops.

Also today Patrick Stump wrote this blog post

Here’s the link http://www.patrickstump.com/post/18474641989/we-liked-you-better-fat-confessions-of-a-pariah

I cried quite a bit reading it (I can’t believe how emotional I am, people never believe me when I say I am but everything sets me off)

I don’t really know what to say about the post except that I respect him so much for putting that out. He’s such a talented artist and has one of the most amazing voices I have ever heard; I support him and will continue to support him with whatever he does. Reading it not only made me upset but it also made me angry, people need to realise how hurtful the things they say/do are. Also all that hate they got for Folie A Deux, I don’t understand it at all because I think it’s an amazing album.
It must be so hard but I hope he gets through this and continues making music. I envy the people that have met him, hopefully one day I will too.

This Is The First Thing

Firstly CONGRATULATIONS Jenny and Sharline for getting into dent and vet. I’m so happy for them!

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. I’ve been meaning to do a post about my Thailand holiday but I still haven’t gotten around to it so I thought I would write about what I’ve been doing since I got back from Thailand.

· Went to Ayanthi’s place and had a bbq. Susan was there so it was really good seeing her and catching up with everyone else

· Went to 1000 steps and got embarrassed as I realised how unfit I am

· Had a get together at Susan’s house where we just ate and went to the beach then ate some more. The water at the beach looked really gross to me after seeing the beaches in Thailand.

· Had our annual Australian Open Men’s finals viewing at my place. Sucks if you missed at that match because it was brilliant! Even though Nadal lost. Both players did so well and ah such a good match.

· Went to Parkmore to buy things to make a cake for my mum. Hung out with Sharline for a bit and got frozen yoghurt for $1 (it’s so good!). The cake turned out to be a disaster and no one has eaten it still, I don’t know why I haven’t thrown it out yet.

· Watched Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows and loved it. Had lunch at TGIF with Diem, Priyanka, Megha and Francois then hung out at MC for a while.

· I wanted to go to Nayomi’s garage sale but I had to stay home and clean. We then went out for lunch with my cousin then came back home. I played uno with my niece and kept winning all the games and she got upset so I felt bad and let her win

· Yen, Susan,Sharline, Nug and Jenny came over. I got told off by everyone because I made them watch Eden Lake haha, we then watched Bridge To Terabithia and looked at Jenny’s photos from her holiday.

I think that’s all the main (gosh I just spelt that as maine and had to change it) things I did.

Other things

· I read the Hunger Games trilogy and I loved it (like I needed something else to fangirl over). Aah gosh the books are brilliant and I highly recommend it if you haven’t read them yet.
I’m really excited about the movie but I HATE how people are comparing it to the Twilight series. Seriously if you read it then you know that they’re nothing alike and I feel like the media is chasing off some people by comparing the two series.
I’m really happy about the casting especially Josh Hutcherson as Peeta (this could be because I’m in love with the character and also because I’ve had a crush on Josh Hutcherson for a few years (I still feel like a pedo liking him) ) but I feel like he’s going to be perfect and so will everyone else. The only one I found a bit strange was casting Lenny Kravitz as Cinna, I imagined Cinna as a young Cillian Murphy but I have a feeling Lenny Kravitz will do a good job as Cinna.

· I finished Series 2 of Sherlock and aah oh gosh it’s brilliant! I can’t believe I’ll have to wait over a year for the next series.

· I had my first driving lesson with an instructor and I was really nervous about it but it was fine and the guy is really nice.

· The Maine put out this video and I think it’s amazing

· I was watching Batman Begins on tv and was appreciating Cillian Murphy’s face.

I then decided to google him and I found out I’ve been pronouncing his name incorrectly for the past 5 or so years... I say ‘sillian’ but it’s ‘killian’

· They painted over the M wall in Arizona. Visiting that wall was on my bucket list and now I won’t get to see it.

'm going to watch Shame tomorrow

There was more I wanted to say but I can't think of anything now

She's Killing Me

Okay I don't know what the fuck is up with the font later in this post, I can't seem to change it

Vivian, Thanh, Jenny and Nug came over for New Year’s Eve.
We had dinner and watched tv, the 30 biggest hits of the year were on so we sat there bagging all the music videos. At midnight we all took a jello shot each which was more of a blob of jelly which wasn’t quite set. Jenny started yelling out that it was burning her throat and all she had was a tiny bit. I thought it was gross because it just tasted like medicine. Nug and I mixed ours with ice cream but it still tasted gross (way too much vodka).
We then watched few things on youtube and took photos then Thanh had to leave.

this made us laugh because we had the self timer on and it was about to go off so jenny just sat where she was

The rest of us changed into our pajamas and put on The Green Lantern. After the movie, Nug and I watched the deleted scenes from X-Men: First Class then fell asleep.

The next morning everyone left and there was this movie on tv; Cheetah Girls: One World. It was one of those Disney tv movies and this one was set in India so it was funny to me (I didn’t watch it properly but it was still funny).
My relos came over later that day and I played stuff with my niece then my dad said something about watching Captain America so I wouldn’t let the subject drop and made everyone (well almost) watch Captain America on Blu Ray in the theatre room (hottest room in the house) on a 40 degree day. It was bloody hot in there, the fan wasn’t really helping, the mango lassi did a bit (now I want mango lassi) but we still watched it and oh gosh blu ray is so pretty. I want to get more movies on bly ray.

After they left my mum told me to put on a movie for her, see my cousin told her about this website where you can stream Indian movies so she made me stream it from my laptop so she could watch it on the tv upstairs with my dad. I decided to go downstairs and read but I thought I would check what was on the tv first. Nothing really interested me until I got to sbs and there was a German movie on called Mädchen, Mädchen (Girls On Top). It was near the middle when I started watching it but I kept getting interrupted by my parents because they kept having problems with the laptop and such so every 5 minutes I would be called upstairs to see what was wrong, this meant that I missed a lot of the film so I didn’t really know what was going on. It was basically a chick flick about a group of school girls trying to get their first orgasm (don’t judge me for watching, it was funny/interesting). The movie ended and I never got to see the ending but right after they played Mädchen, Mädchen 2 so I decided to watch this. This movie had two of the same girls from the first part of the movie and was set a few years after the first. It was about three girls trying to find and apartment to live in and all this stuff happens and I was really interested. It wasn’t a great movie or anything but it was entertaining plus one of the guys was pretty cute; he reminded me of Mitch Hewer in Skins.

This is him in another movie, his name is Max Riemelt
I googled him and he doesn’t look as cute as he did in the movie. Maybe I just liked his character

My parents called me upstairs again and this time it took ages so I missed a chunk of the movie and I hate it when that happens so I didn’t finish it but I now regret it because I might not find an online version that has English subtitles.

On Wednesday, I went to Top Shop with Yen. As soon as we went in, I saw a guy from my uni there but I don’t think he recognised me. The shop is pretty good, I didn’t end up getting anything but Yen did. We then went to Melbourne Central then decided to have lunch. Yen said she would take me to this Japanese place on Bourke so we went over but it was closed so we then went to the comic book shop and looked around. Gosh I love that place, it’s so cool! I saw some issues of Civil War and got excited but they were a bit pricey, I didn’t realise how expensive comics could be. There goes any chance of me buying the issues of The Avengers vs X-Men when it comes out. There was an Asian place open next to where the Japanese place was so we went in and sat down and got our menus but there wasn’t really anything we wanted so we left and Yen felt really bad. We had lunch at Gigi on Swanston and it was decent but it took them forever to bring out the food. Went back to MC and sat and talked for a bit then I headed home.

While I was having dinner that night, Sharline came over. We took Scooby for a walk and ended up staying out for around an hour but it was a nice walk. We then went back to my place and talked for a while then watched X-Men: First Class, unfortunately not Blu Ray because as I said in my previous post, the disk doesn’t work and I don’t know how to update it so I’ll have to wait till I get another player. Sharline liked the movie which made me happy, we then watched the deleted scenes and a couple of the behind the scenes videos and ended up sleeping around 6.

We woke up around 12 and Sharline had to go because she had work. I spent the rest of the day cleaning.

Oh I watched episode 1 Season 2 of Sherlock and I have mixed feelings about it but mostly good. It was exciting getting to see it after such a long break.

Scooby got a haircut so all his fur is gone and he looks all skinny again, we told the lady to not make it too short but it is really short and once again looks like a different dog, oh well at least it’ll be nice for him during the warm days.

2011

Can you believe that another year is almost over?
I think it’s crazy, I feel like this year has gone by so fast and that I’ve done nothing.

This year has had its ups and downs but in the end I guess it was an alright year.

I am now going to type out random things I think of

I got my first (proper) pet

Look how little and brown he looked!

I went to my first music festival this year

I saw around 33 bands, some more than once

The last Harry Potter movie came out

Wow I’ve already run out of things to say...what the hell did I do this year?

Favourite movie X-Men: First Class

Favourite album Vices & Virtues

Favourite new TV character Rudy from Misfits

Favourite ship Charles Xavier/Erik Lensherr (yes I had to put this in)

Lowlight The Academy Is... breaking up

Highlight meeting Brendon Urie

This was supposed to be a big interesting post but I am far too tired to do anything right now so I will end this.

Here’s to 2012!

Identify

The stupidest thing happened last week.
Both my parents were outside doing gardening or something and I went outside to take out the trash. We were all at the front of the house when the gate slammed shut behind us (You can’t open it from the outside and no one had house keys).
I tried to see if I could climb over but no so I kept asking my dad what we were going to do but him and my mum were bickering about something and it was so frustrating because we were all stuck outside (including scooby).
After ages my dad came back with a ladder which he got from some random house and we could finally go back inside the house.

Last Saturday we left to go on a little trip which we usually do around Christmas time because my parents have holidays. We went with one other family and I wasn’t looking forward to it because I would have no one to talk to (the kid is 9).
We stopped near Bairnsdale to have lunch in this little park. There was a man dressed as Santa going around on a motor bike giving out candy to people.
Arrived in Metung around 3 and found the place we were going to stay in. It was pretty small and had two bedrooms but at least it was clean.
After settling in we walked to the town and looked around (it’s the tiniest place)

I had a dream that night where I was walking somewhere with my parents and I saw You Me At Six so I got really excited and told my dad to take a photo of me with the guys but he got really angry and told me not to listen to them and that I couldn't talk to them and stuff so I got angry. We then left and went to a party and the YMAS guys were there (I don't know why) so I went over and talked to Dan for ages (yes I may have a slight crush on him now). Damn I can't remember what else happened, I don't even know why I shared this dream with you but it was a nice dream.

On Christmas Day we drove up to Buchan Caves to see if it was open but it wasn’t so we went to Lakes Entrance. We went to the beach and walked around then got fish and chips and headed back to Metung and went on a walk to this beach-y area which was a spot for boats to be docked and it was so pretty.

Next Day went to Lakes Entrance and everyone did a bit of shopping while I stayed in the car with Scooby. We then went back to Buchan Caves and I stayed in the car while everyone else went to the caves because of Scooby. Back to Lakes Entrance and got Flat head tails which were so good! Then back to Metung.

Overall this trip was extremely dull and I didn’t like it. The kid annoyed the hell out of me the entire time, I got no sleep because there were three (well 4 including Scooby) of us on the one bed. I woke up at one point in the night and saw that Scooby had more room on the bed than me. I’m so glad I took my laptop with me because I spent most of my time watching stuff when we were in the house.
We came back on Tuesday and had a barbeque at the park near my house.

--

Thanh came over on Wednesday because we were going to have Tim Burton marathon. We only ended up watching two movies but it was still good. We sat on the floor and talked for a while after then she left. It was nice seeing her after ages.
Wow I can’t remember what I did after

--

Jenny came over today, we watched a movie then walked to Parkmore to see Sharline at work.
We didn’t have a chance to talk to her because she was out the back so we walked around a bit then came back.
After a while we finally got to talk to Sharline and she showed us her new rabbit (she’s so cute!). We got to feed the rabbits and guinea pigs and touch the dogs. She told us to come back later so she could take a break so we went to Nandos and got chips. While we were eating, I got a call from my dad and he told me that Scooby ran outside the house and got hit by a bicycle so I got worried but he said he was fine just a little scarred.

After we ate we went to see if Nug was working.
She was, we said hi and I recognised one of Jenny’s friends from her party (he was also working there). He knew my name so I felt really bad when I couldn’t remember his but I didn’t tell him that. We talked to Nug for a bit then went back to see if Sharline could take her break. We couldn’t see her which meant she was at the back (there was a sick cat so they were looking after it). After waiting we left and got ice cream from Maccas then waited more but then decided to leave because she never came out. We went back to Nug and talked to her, she told me she watched all of The Avengers so I got really happy because people never watch things I tell them to watch and now I have someone to fangirl with.
After checking for Sharline again we decided to leave. Jenny went to the station while I went home.

When I got home I saw a jb hi fi bag and got really excited (my family friends said they would get me some movies). X-Men: First Class and Captain America on Blu Ray! Yaaaaaaay
I don’t really know why they did, my dad said it’s because I look after their kid in the holidays. They asked me if I wanted any others but I already felt bad so I only gave them two names.
If you’ve read my other posts then you know how much I wanted them (especially XMFC)
After a while I put it on and decided to look at the special features but then my dad came in so i told him to watch the movie with me. I put it on but it didn’t seem to work so I tried and tried and tried some more but every time I did, the movie wouldn’t play so I got really upset. I tried Captain America and that was fine, I also tried the normal DVD of XMFC (it came with Blu Ray and DVD) and that worked but the Blu Ray didn’t so my dad said he would go return it tomorrow and get another copy. I really hope it works ugh I was so excited and everything.

I also got Pioneer today; the CD came with a mask and a signed letter from the band

--

That’s pretty much all I’ve been doing.

There was a flash mob in Auckland where people danced to this Tamil song called 'Why This Kolaveri Di' (which is this new song that's become super popular for some reason and it was in the mX the other day for getting heaps of youtube hits) and my cousin was in the flash mob so you can see her dancing in their official video

I finally finished reading Civil War and ugh gosh it’s so sad and good at the same time. I’ve got another series to read now called The House Of M.

I started Community and now I’m up to date and it’s a really good show, can’t believe they’re thinking about cancelling it.

I watched The Doctor Who Christmas special and it was good but I was expecting a little more. The ending was really good though.

The Downton Abbey Christmas special was brilliant! I loved it but hated that they didn’t have my favourite characters in it.

Bite My Tongue

Last Friday Sharline came over to play Nancy Drew. We played The Crystal Skull and it took us around 6 hours to get through the whole game. I’ve never finished one in one day before, it was pretty intense. The game was awesome! It was really hard and there were a lot of creepy things in it so it was funny seeing Sharline’s reactions at certain things. My parents catered that night and went to bed without cleaning because they had work in the morning so I had to clean the house. Oh gosh the kitchen was crazy, it was so messy, took me around 2 hours to clean.

Saturday was the American TV Character themed party. I finally decided to dress up as Garcia and the outfit came out pretty well. Nayomi dressed up as someone from Grey’s Anatomy and it was funny because everyone thought she was from Scrubs. Vivian was Rachel from Glee, Sharline was Eliza Thornberry, Piyumi was Serena from Gossip Girl while Sneha was Blair from Gossip Girl. Ayanthi didn’t dress up because she didn’t have enough time. We just ate and talked and it was good, what sucked though was that we didn’t take a single photo even though I asked. At the end of the night I decided to get one of myself so it’s all I have, my lipstick is gone and my hair looked different at the start of the night.

Shame we didn’t have photos. Nayomi and Sharline slept over, Nayomi fell asleep so Sharline and I watched Mean Girls 2 and basically laughed at everything in the movie. Nayomi woke up around 8 in the morning so we watched The Blinde Side which was good. I fell asleep for about 10 minutes during the movie so that’s the only bit of sleep I got. They both left after and the rest of the day I was left feeling really tired and kept falling asleep at random times.

Sharline and I talked about Fight Club the other night so I told her she had to watch it; she came over on Monday to watch it. After Fight club we watched Captain America then walked to her house and I walked back with Scooby. It was a really good day, it’s always nice having a relaxing day with a friend.

Tuesday I had volunteering and someone donated a massive bundle of knitting needles so I had to go through them and pair them up, lordy that took a while. I watched Love Actually that night, I didn;t watch all of it because I took Scooby for a walk in the middle of it but yes. I totally forgot Martin Freeman was in it. He’s so cute! I want to hug him. Speaking of Martin Freeman, Sherlock series 2 comes out January 2nd #yaaaaaaaaay

I watched Season 3 finale of Misfits and ugh god it was so sad and then I saw this message from Iwan Rheon

and it made me even more sad!
Simon is my favourite character on Misfits so I don’t know what it’ll be like without him

I forgot to write about this when I first found out about it but check this out


Yes, The Avengers vs X-Men story arc
How exciting!?
I can’t wait! So many good things coming out next year.

The Battle Of One

On Tuesday, I started volunteering at an op shop. I basically just helped with sorting out stuff, making things neater and putting price tags on items. The owner lady is really nice and she talks a LOT so I don’t have to do a lot of talking.

This guy came in to donate stuff and after he left the lady went “ooh wasn’t he cute? But if I went after him, I would be called a cougar.” I just laughed.

--

On Wednesday, Viv, Sharline, Jenny. Yen and Nug came over and it was so good to see them. Can’t believe it was the first time seeing them all holidays. We just talked and ate and looked at things on the internet.

We tried taking a polaroid but Yen was always cut out of it so we tried all these things then realised there was no more film left.

Oh yes I also got birthday presents from Yen and Jenny

The picture also has the presents I got from Sumo

How cool!?

There’s two t-shirts (a Cheshire cat one and a The Maine one that Jenny made), a pioneer bracelet (also made by Jenny), The Hunger Games trilogy, a two in one, Eagle Eye and Disturbia DVD and two Batman tin pails.

--

On Friday I went to Chadstone with Diem. We went to Hoyts to pick out a movie but there weren’t a lot of good movies to pick from. Diem wanted to watch something funny and I wanted to watch Drive, after a while I finally convinced her to watch Drive and we bought tickets before she changed her mind. The movie wasn’t going to start till later sow e walked around and had lunch. I don’t know if it’s just me but the clothes in the shops now are terrible! I seriously could not find a single decent item of clothing, well except for a couple of dresses at Dangerfield but they were all too expensive.

We went to the book store that’s replaces Borders and it’s basically just books that not a lot of people are going to buy. Diem was looking at this romance book so I kept yelling out that she was reading porn and I got a few looks from people who were around us.

After the movie we walked around a bit more then went home.

Oh one thing. At Hoyts there were so many posters for Hindi movies, it was weird. There was a massive cut out of Shahrukh Khan

--

On Sunday we went to an Indian restaurant with our family friends and oh gosh the butter chicken there was SO GOOD.

After we ate we all went to IKEA in Springvale because we hadn’t been. It is marvellous, I wanted to stay there longer, I love the place. We always end up buying random stuff when we go to IKEA, we did the same this time.

like these

We don’t need them but they’re cute and colourful

We then went to Harvey Norman. You know how they always have a wall full of TVs and they have a movie playing on them, well the movie that was playing was X-Men: First Class so I got all excited. Another TV had Thor playing so more excitement. Family friends were buying a TV so they were talking to a person who worked there, I got a little bored so I walked around and tried the 3D TVs. I also kept bugging my dad about getting me X-Men: First Class on bluray so he said he would but when we left JB HI FI was closed.

--

Random note, Scarlett Johansson looks really attractive in that ‘The One’ Dolce & Gabbana ad

--

I felt like making eggy in a basket after watching V for Vendetta. Mine didn’t turn out as nice looking as the ones in the movie but at least it tasted good.

--

Posters came out for the new Spiderman and Batman movies

--

I started reading Civil War last week and it’s brilliant!

There was one issue in the series called casualties of war and the issue is basically just Tony (Iron Man) and Steve (Captain America) talking and it made me teary. Yeah I never thought a comic would make me emotional but Civil War is just so sad! I’ve still got a few issues to read

--

It’s Scooby’s birthday tomorrow

--

I’m thinking of dressing up as Penelope Garcia for my American TV Character party this weekend but I’m not sure yet. I’m not going to look anything like her, I don’t have the glasses or the hair or anything but we’ll see.

I don’t know who else to dress up as if the Garcia outfit doesn’t work
My dad just told me to dress up as Raven haha

All Of Me

The start of last week started off normal, me at home doing pretty much nothing.

I donated blood on Wednesday and I always feel really good after for some reason, probably because I feel like I’ve helped someone in some way.

My throat started to hurt on Wednesday so I thought great, I’m getting sick.
(See my colds usually start off with sore throats then that wears off and I get all the other things)

I missed Piyumi’s surprise party on Friday because I wasn’t feeling too great so my parents wouldn't let me out.
My cousins came over that night and my uncle, aunt and niece stayed for the weekend.
On Saturday we didn’t go anywhere because the weather was crap so my niece kept wanting me to play with her. I rediscovered my love for Nintendo 64 games because I have a few on my computer and I played them with her.
Sunday everyone went to the city except me (sick)
I thought I was starting to get better but boy was I wrong.
My ear started to hurt and it just got worse and worse and dear lord the pain was unbelievable. It was completely horrible and there was nothing I could do about it so I was internally screaming in pain for a couple of hours.

On Monday these people came to enclose our alfresco area so my dad came home early and took me to the doctors. The rest of the day was spent sleeping.
At 8:30 I put on the tv to watch Supernatural, the episode had barely started when my dad started yelling at me to turn it off because he didn’t want to watch it.
Gosh he didn’t have to watch it!
I waited two weeks to watch that episode but no I had to turn it off.
I also missed out on Viv’s Thanksgiving dinner/sleepover so I was bummed about that too

Tuesday morning, I didn’t want to leave the house but I had a call from the Salvo’s people asking if I would come in on Tuesday morning to talk to the owner of the shop. (I applied to volunteer at an op shop in Berwick)
So I got there and the lady talked to me and made me fill out a few forms then asked if I would come in next Tuesday so I said yes and all that and then left.
I was already really tired at this point and wanted to go home but I went to the library to pick up my reservation.

It’s THOR! (I was going to take a photo of it but it’s downstairs and I am too comfy in bed to go get it)
I’ve been waiting so long to watch it
It was like whenever I previously tried to watch it, something would go wrong so then I just decided till I got hold of a copy of the DVD so it could be viewed in perfect quality.

I still haven’t seen it; I’m waiting for when I feel a little better or when the ringing in my ear stops. It’s like the ringing you get after being somewhere really loud, like after a concert, except it’s only in one ear and it hasn’t stopped since Sunday.

The rest of the week has been me, sleeping a lot and watching a lot of tv since I couldn’t go on the internet, but internet is back and I have to catch up on my tv shows.

Last night I watched a bit of Undercover princesses, like undercover princes but with females yes anyway there’s an Indian one this time too.
I’m upset that Inside The Actors Studio isn’t on anymore, I don’t know what happened.

I went on imdb today and was a little shocked/surprised when I saw this

That first trailer is for a Hindi movie, how cool is that?

I was going through stuff and I found a form thing from the hospital (when I had my operation) that had my medication dosage on it and I had to take 16 tablets a day. How crazy!

HCR won an AMA for best new artist and I’m really happy for them
I listened to most of their new album and I don’t know, it’s stuff I don’t normally listen to so I’m a little upset at how much they’ve changed their sound. It’s completely pop now; it’s a shame because their last album was just SO GOOD.

I watched the music video for Time Bomb and all I could think was "OMG he's got an arc reactor! He's putting it in her! She's Iron Woman! Zack hair looks really nice"

Yes it made me laugh because of the Iron Man thing but otherwise a sort of normal video.

I also watched Say You Like Me and I liked the video, it was cute and it made me smile. It's my favourite WTK music video for sure

I was going through photos from Inverloch and came across this

A couple of us thought it was really funny because his boobs looked weird

I don’t know why I kept it

When It Rains

Yesterday my morning started off pretty crappy, I got blamed for something which wasn’t my fault which led to the whole lecture/rant thing I seem to get every so often.
“You’re useless, you don’t have a job but everyone else does, you can’t drive, you don’t study properly, you need to lose weight...” and it goes on

So naturally I wasn’t feeling that great but boy was I glad to get out of the house. I hadn’t actually been out with friends since September so I really needed this.

I met up with Nayomi and Sandhya at MC, we walked around and saw that there was an eating contest going on so a lot of people were watching that. We got lunch then headed to the food court to sit down. We all tried the crepes at the crepe place for the first time and I wasn’t too impressed with it. We spent ages just talking about things so when it was time to go, I didn’t want to leave but it was nice catching up with them.

On the way home I got a phone call from my mum, she told me Scooby ran away (I panicked for a second) but he came back completely wet and dirty. When I got home I had a give him a bath and really, he didn’t look that bad, I’ve seen him dirtier.

I saw the trailers for both Snow White and the Huntsman and Mirror Mirror.

Snow White and the Huntsman

The trailer made the movie look pretty interesting; I know a lot of people are really hyped about it. I just hope the movie isn’t just completely violent and full of battle scenes. I still don’t really like the idea of Kristen Stewart as Snow White but I’ll have to wait and watch the movie before I start judging her performance. One thing I am looking forward to is Charlize Theron as the Queen. Ever since I watched Hancock, I found her really attractive and she looks amazing in this movie

Mirror Mirror

I don’t really know why but I was expecting a sort of dark twist to the fairy tale but after watching the trailer, I realised I was wrong. It looks like a happy family movie, I’m not complaining but yeah I don’t know. Julia Roberts doesn’t look evil enough to be the Queen and I don’t know what Lily Collins will be like because I haven’t seen her in a movie before but I am looking forward to seeing Armie Hammer as the prince because he looks completely gorgeous

I still think it’s weird that they’re making two Snow White related movies so close together (there’s that new show Once Upon a Time which also has Snow White in it, I guess that’s different though)but I guess they’ll both have different plots and all.

I went on imdb and saw this

and got really happy. I went on the Shame page and saw that they FINALLY had a release date for Australia which is February so it means I still have a bit of a wait but at least I have a date now. I’m going to probably end up watching this movie alone because I don’t really know anyone else who knows about it. I bet I’m going to feel awkward going into the movie because it’ll pretty much be like watching a porno from what I’ve heard.

Completely random note but I don’t understand perfume ads. There were quite a few on tv today but they all seem to have models in minimum clothing being sexual. I don’t know.

OMGOMGOMG I forgot to write about it before but oh gosh. So there was a girl in my course last year and we were friends and well she get married at the start of the year and it was like woah (she’s 23 I think, if you were wondering), well she left uni and is doing it off campus and all but last week or the week before I went on facebook and there was a picture of a baby and everyone was writing congratulatory messages, SHE HAS A BABY! It’s bizarre, my friend and I were talking about it but pretty much all we could say was omg. See it’s strange because at the start of last year we would catch the train together sometimes and she would complain about how she was never going to get a boyfriends and that’s she’s going to be all alone and now look at her, wow.

I found out Bryan Donahue left Boys Like Girls, gosh so many people leaving bands and all but I’m not surprised by it. It is sad though but yeah really not that surprising. They’re recording a third album though which is cool but after I saw them live last year I sort of stopped listening to them because they sounded so much better live then on their albums, I don’t know ignore me.

My cousin came over today and my dad bought beer because my Uncle only drinks beer or something, so my Uncle and cousin’s husband were drinking the beer and I saw that it was Carona and I remembered that it was the beer that John O’Callaghan drank at Soundwave. My mum was drinking wine and asked me if I wanted some so I went can I try the beer (I’ve never had it before)

“Yeah sure, ask your dad to get you some”
My dad came over and my mum told him I wanted beer

“No! You’ll get addicted”
“But I only want to try a tiny bit”
“No, you can drink agrum but I’m not giving you anything else”

Dammit

The downside of having a father who doesn’t drink any type of alcohol
There are heaps of bottles in the house now but he would probably know if I took a bottle plus that would be dodgy of me

I downloaded a part of the Civil War yesterday (that sounds strange) but the Civil War is a story arc in the Marvelverse (is that even a word? Maybe marvel universe sounds better) but I can’t read it because I need this program to open the file that I downloaded so now I can’t read it until the start of next month because I’ll be capped soon and it makes me sad but no one actually cares do they?

I’ve also missed all my shows this week which hasn’t been TOO bad. I’ll get to watch Supernatural on tv tomorrow (if I remember) and I think TBBT is also on but I really want to watch American Horror Story and it’s on tv but I think it’s 2 or 3 weeks behind so that annoys me.

Thanh told me about this show called undercover princes so I watched it and it was so funny. These three princes (one from India, Sri Lanka and South Africa) stay in England and live and date like normal people. After their time is up they decide on one person to take back to their country to show them their homes. The Indian one is gay and he makes me laugh, he’s so cute.

After the show ended I was going to put on a movie but Inside the Actors Studio came on. I watch episodes of that online so I got really excited. The episode on that night was Mickey Rourke and I initially wasn’t going to watch it but I did and it was really good and there was a part where I got teary.

Every time I go on a website that has ads on it, I get ones like this

It knows me -cue creepy music- (no not really)

That was a lot of rambling

Keep It Simple

The day I finished my exam, I planned on relaxing at home and celebrating by watching a couple of movies. This didn’t go to plan because I had a horrible headache. I watched a tiny bit of Sunshine then started watching Star Trek. I was planning on staying up so I could watch Panic Room. While Star Trek was playing, my mum suddenly went SPOCK! When she saw the tv, she had a little fangirl moment and told me that Spock was her favourite when she was a kid and that she watched Star Trek when it was on tv. My headache wasn’t getting any better so I decided to call it a night,

The next night my dad was out for a catering thing so I made dinner for myself and my mum then put on The Incredible Hulk. While I was towards the end of the movie, my dad came home so I told him Terminator Salvation was on if he wanted to watch it. He said he would watch it with me in the theatre room so I told him I was watching another movie, he still came and sat with me to watch it. He asked me about the movie so I got really excited and started explaining about the Hulk. Yes I get excited by these things, he normally doesn’t listen to me when I explain movies, like the other day I tried telling him about X-Men and he wasn’t listening to me. My mum came in and watched the end of the movie and kept complaining about how much fighting there was.
After the movie my dad told me to go to bed

-No, I want to watch another movie
-You’re acting like you haven’t seen a movie in ages
-But it’s the holidays!

My mum then told him to let me watch a movie

-I got a new Hindi movie put that on (my dad)
-Noooooo I want to watch my movie
-Put on Red Dog (mum)
-I don’t have Red Dog...

She then told me to put on the Filmfare Awards (Hindi movie awards)
so I looked for it an found it online
I’ve said this before but I love award shows!

(Ignore this part if you don’t know anything about Hindi movies)
I won’t say much but it was really good, it was hosted by Ranbir Kapoor and Imran Khan who were really funny. I swear Ranbir is getting more attractive.
Shahrukh Khan and Kajol won best leading male and female so I was all happy
Yeah that’s all I’ll say
But it made me want to watch Hindi movies again, I've missed out on so many, I had to keep asking my parents about the movies because I hadn't seen any of them

You can start reading this again

On Sunday my cousin came over so my niece wanted to watch a movie, so after going through my movies, she picked out Dinosaur. Gosh it had been so long since I’ve seen it, I think I watched it at the movies when it came out, I was sort of in love with dinosaurs when I was a kid. It was funny watching the movie with my niece because she was ask me questions like when one dinosaur got hurt, she asked if he was going to go to the Doctors.

After they left I watched The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
I can’t make up my mind on whether I liked this film or not, some things confused me so I think I need to watch it again another time.

I went to Dandy Plaza and I was just browsing through the shops, I swear 80% of the clothes are sleeveless. I know it's almost summer and all but this annoys me because it's so hard to find clothes that I would wear and I don't wear sleeveless. I can't find t-shirts anywhere, I need to go shopping.

Yesterday I put on Batman: Under The Red Hood, I had downloaded it a couple of weeks ago and was really looking forward to watching it but when I put it on, it cut off after the first minute so I got upset. My internet is going to be capped soon so I can’t look for another download link until next month.

I went to the gym after AGES last night and went to a zumba class, it was so packed and most of the people there looked new to me. One of the songs was Sexy and I know it by LMFAO so I couldn’t stop laughing throughout the whole song.

I went on the jb hi fi website to look at DVDs and I saw X-Men: First Class on BluRay for $30 something, argh I thought it was cheaper, now it's going to take me longer to buy and I also want to buy Captain American on BluRay as well as the Harry Potter Boxset on BluRay
I don't see me owning any of these any time soon

Well that’s all for now, I hope I can go out and catch up with people next week.
I’m going to write a couple of movie posts later on my other blog so check them out if you want, later.

Oh look another blog post to waste time

I had a dream last night where I was at a music festival (with Jenny) and I was trying to get a photo with Josh from YM@S but this girl kept getting in my photo so I was really annoyed but then Josh kissed me on the (haha I know) so I was all happy after that.
We then went to see Panic but the signing tickets were all sold so I asked them if I could talk to them after the signings and they said yes. So I went over to them and asked if I could talk to Brendon and Spencer and they said yes so I went over and started talking to them. I told them how much their music means to me and all that and then I started crying and was like oh god I can’t believe I’m crying but then Spencer got teary and then Brendon and Spencer hugged me. I don’t remember what happened next then I was with Jenny again and was like oh crap we missed Cobra Starship.
That’s all I remember.

I forgot to write about this award show I watched last week. It was the Scream awards and oh gosh it was so good! The whole setting of the place looked amazing and there were all these people dressed up in costumes and they looked really cool (I wonder how you get tickets for it). They also had performers around the sides who were dressed up too like circus performers and things. The Scream awards are for horror/thriller/sci fi/fantasy and superhero movies/tv shows so I was fangirling over a lot of things. It started off with Robert Downey Jr. getting a Hero award and he was so awesome. I fangirled over Matt Smith winning best sci fi actor and they had a Harry Potter tribute and had Dan Rad talk (he also won best fantasy actor). They also had previews of upcoming movies and had Gary Oldman, JGL and Anne Hathaway talk because The Dark Knight Rises won most anticipated movie but oh gosh the whole show was so good and entertaining.

Oh my god. So this thing happens where I watch a movie and then a week or a couple of weeks later that movie comes on tv and I always find it weird. It just happened, I was checking to the guide to see what movies are on next Friday and Sunshine is on!

I thought I would post this song even though it’s been out for a little while but it’s so great and I LOVE the video. The game looks brilliant, I wish I had a game console so I could play the game.

I decided I’m going to get X-Men: First Class on BluRay even though I can’t afford it right now (I know it’s only $20 something but I have no money)

It has more features than the DVD so yes. I can’t wait to get it!
I’m going to force my dad to watch it with me.

This is a bit random (not that my other thoughts aren’t) but We Are The In Crowd are doing a pretty good job with getting their name out there, I mean all the tours they’re doing and stuff and they’ve only recently put out an album and only had an EP out before then. Then I think about This Century and I mean they are getting bigger but not like WATIC. They haven’t been overseas or anything and it annoys me a little. I mean I like WATIC but comparing them to This Century, TC are amazing imo, completely underrated and I wish more people knew about them. I don’t even know what I’m saying just ignore me.

I’ve still got two exams left, one on Wednesday and Friday and I haven’t been studying properly for them which is really bad because there is so much to remember for them both and still so much reading to do but I hate that the readings are online. I get horrible headaches from looking at the screen for too long.

I was talking to my mum before and she told me once holidays start I can plan my meals and she’ll give me money so I can go grocery shopping to buy everything I need and I can make my own meals instead of eat what she makes, this way I can keep track of what I eat.
I’m looking forward to planning it all, I’m going to try and go to the gym everyday too so I hope it all works out.

That is all for now, I’m not going to blog until my exams are over (otherwise I would probably post something every day)

Don't Give Up On Us

I watched the latest episode of Glee today.
Everyone loves the new Irish guy, I find him annoying and weird and his accent is strong so I don’t understand him sometimes.
Almost all the characters are annoying
Britney’s stupidity isn’t funny anymore; I don’t know how someone that stupid could be in high school.
You must be thinking why do I still watch the show if I don’t like it, I actually don’t know, I decided to stick with it for the rest of the season then stop once it ends.

I forgot to mention in my last post that my cousin got a tattoo on his wrist
He’s the first one in the family (besides my grandparents). I wanted to be the first one!
Here it is

It’s my auntie’s name

The pre order for The Maine’s new album came out today and I don’t like the album cover

But it’s the music that’s important and the one song they’ve released from it sounds good, plus I’m really looking forward to hearing the recorded version of My Heroine.
One of the songs on the album is called Jenny and that’s John’s mum’s name so I thought it was really cute that he wrote a song about his mum.

Seeing all this news about Kim Kardashian is pissing me off. They had it on the news about how she’s in Australia for the races and that she got a divorce blah blah, who the fuck cares? I still don’t understand why she’s famous. It seriously weirds me out that so many girls want to be like her, WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE HER? I don’t think I’ll ever understand.

Since my internet is back, I’ve been on tumblr way too much and I need to stop.
I’m finding it hard to start studying again; ugh exams please be over already.

I watched this video and thought it was funny

Although it doesn’t feel like it right now, summer is approaching and this means I can no longer wear hoodies so I want to get more t-shirts.
I want to get this t-shirt

Isn’t it lovely? I think I would prefer it in white though but the marvel website only has it in navy so that’s a shame.

This person on tumblr posted these minimalistic posters

This one is of some of the Avengers but she’s got other ones with other superheroes but oh my god they’re so amazing!
I LOVE how they look and I wish I could get those designs on t-shirts, how awesome would it look!?

She’s done one t-shirt and I think it looks great

I wrote my first movie post on my other blog if you wanted to go check it out, please comment if you do (it makes me happy). HERE is the link
