Worrysome


Summary of my day: I managed to finish Lizzy's birthday present :D Well, i'm pretty much finished. I need to put it in an oven and paint some parts. I'm still kind of iffy about putting non-edible things in an oven. I don't think mum likes that idea either. I wish i could use the ovens at school haha. I'm actually quite satisfied with it. On another note, i've been worrying about so many things all day:

1) Having to pay for a Virgin data plan because stupid Virgin didn't cancel it
2) My G-market order that still hasn't been shipped yet because one seller still hasn't sent my items. Oh, and another item got cancelled *angry face*
3) Amazon's charges from my costume that still haven't shown up on my dad's account
4) Doing my work ! I haven't done anything and it's already Thursday tomorrow ! *starts panicking*

His covers are always fun to watch. They remind me of Jazz music a lot of the time.

Angry



I had tutor today for two hours. It felt so long because i usually only go for one, but i figured since it's holidays i'd go for two. I was so annoyed at the ticket person because he kept giving me the wrong ticket ! I needed to go to Burwood afterwards so i wanted a ticket to Thornleigh but return to Burwood, so literally Burwood to Thornleigh return (I was at North Strathfield station) and it took him three times to get it right. The first time he gave me North Strathfield to Burwood return, the second time he gave me North Strathfield to Thornleigh return and after telling him again that he got it wrong, he finally gave me the right one. He wasn't exactly friendly either ): Went to Burwood afterwards and bought wire, more fimo and a headband so i can now make my Maison Michel ears :D

I've been in a pretty bad mood after i found out that more of my G-market stuff got cancelled because they're out of stock. It really annoys me how you might order something, pay and then whilst you're waiting for it to be shipped, they cancel it to indicate that it's out of stock. I mean, if they listed it as out of stock in the first place, i could've bought something else ! I'm so angry that the bag i wanted is not available now. They still have it in black but i really liked the red one so i'm not even sure if i still want the black one. And i'm not sure if they even refund the shipping costs for cancelled items ! I'm so angryyy ! I'm going to get wrinkles from frowning all day ): Three of the items i ordered have been cancelled already and four are still "on request" even though i ordered last Thursday so there's a possibility that they might be cancelled too :@

I'M SO ANGRY ):

Tomorrow, When the War Began


Today was so very tiring. We literally walked all day and around the whole of Westfield. I managed to buy bias tape, lace and some Fimo clay but they only had one pack of yellow left and not the right type of red i wanted so i only bought the one pack of yellow and a black. Bleh, Fimo is so not worth it. It's $4.75 for a 56 gram block ! It's so tiny !

You have no idea how long we spent in Lincraft trying to find black wire, bias tape and black lace. In the end, they didn't even have black wire, and I also couldn't find a plain black headband so i still need to get one. We were planning on watching the 2:30? 2:15? (can't remember) session of Tomorrow, When the War Began at Parra until we realised that for some reason they removed that session and the next one was at 9:30 ! So then we had no choice but to go to Burwood for the 4:10 session and barely made it. We didn't even have time to eat lunch ): The movie was pretty good. I kept trying to figure out what Asian country the invading army was meant to be from but i couldn't tell. I swear it sounded like they were talking gibberish, though at one point there was a phrase that sounded like Chinese :S Afterwards dad picked me up from Burwood and we went to Officeworks to get my stuff for school. Hehe the lady at the register said she liked my nails and asked me where i got them done :3

*Sigh* I didn't even buy much today but i actually spent almost $100 ):

Yay, i just ordered my costume and it's meant to be delivered on or between the 13th - 22nd of October. Lizzy's party is on the 23rd so i really hope it comes during the earlier dates.

Little kiddies


The little kiddies on Junior Master Chef make me feel ashamed of my lack of cooking abilities ): Makes me think that maybe i should try cooking more. Hehe i like Sam.

I can't wait til my G-market order gets here, along with my amiami order and my costume, but that'll take a while. Going to Parra tomorrow to watch Tomorrow When the War Began and i need to buy air-drying clay, black lace, wire, bias tape, black head band, Spirax lecture books for school and earphones from Officeworks. I'm thinking of making some Maison Michel bunny ears (: I wanted to make them a while ago but kind of forgot until Yvonne talked about making them for Lizzy's party.

Bleh, i really need to do my tutor homework.
I'm still extremely annoyed at imageshack. Jess says it works for her on Chrome though *angryface*.


Mickey Mouse



Vinyl Collectible Doll (VCD) Special No.177 Mickey Mouse as Mad Hatter [Medicom Toy]

It's so cute ! And so expensive (5130 yen, approx AUD 63.45 from amiami). It's on 23% discount too. Was 6800 yen (approx AUD 84.11) *dies* Would anyone spend that much on a figurine?

Shu Uemura


Shu Uemura futuristic premium lashes
Can you imagine anyone wearing these? Because i can't. Maybe only on runway models.

Change


I never come across a blogger template that i like without having to adjust the colours, images, font etc but i found one i really like so i shall be changing my current one. Actually, to be honest, i really like that user's templates. She's very good at designing/using html :D If anything looks stuffed it's because i'm adding/fixing things. Argh my images are too wide D: But if i widen the post column then i'll have to widen the banner image, hmm.

Materialism


Don't you just hate being a girl sometimes? It seems that the want for fashion related items is endless. You can never have enough shoes, or clothes, or perfume, or nail polish... and the list goes on. I've spent so much lately and i still want to buy more ): Well, at least now i don't have to buy the 2u Fitzpatrick textbook (I already have the 3u one) thanks to Viv who has very kindly offered to give me the one that belonged to her brother.

I really want to go somewhere overseas. I haven't been anywhere in a very, and i mean very, long time. I'm so holiday deprived ! That aside, i really ought to do some work. I seriously have been lazing around ever since exams ended. You might be thinking that i sound crazy for working during the holidays but i have a lot of preparation to do before year twelve starts *sigh*. I think i need to chuck the lazy Stella out the window.

Someone posted this on Soompi. He's good ! Shocked me at first. For those who don't know Chinese, he's speaking Cantonese but also Mandarin in the middle. Haha i laughed when he said that Chinese can help you save money when buying furniture.




Pokemon fan-film. It's pretty awesome considering it's fan-made :3

Celadon City hasn't been the same since the Gyms closed down. Pokémon fighting has gone underground, and the sport has gotten a taste for blood. Ash, Misty, and Brock have been forced deep into the city's seedy underbelly to keep training, but the Pokémon aren't the only ones in danger. Now, Ash must choose to either become a master in the grim world of illegal pokémon fighting, or make a desperate stand to free them all from the criminal grip of Rocket Industries.

Last day


I spent the whole day watching videos in different classes. I probably wouldn't have gone to school if i didn't feel that i've been away too much. I didn't even know what to write on my absent note for yesterday since i can't keep saying that i was sick.

SOR: Ms Cross wouldn't let us watch an actual movie so we had to watch some documentary on Afghanistan. It was so boring i ended up reading manga on my phone.
Jap: There were only seven people in class including myself D: Everyone didn't go to school haha. We watched the rest of Spirited Away (: I haven't watched it in so long so it was still entertaining.
Maths: We had a birthday party for Mr.L because his birthday is tomorrow. He told us that he stopped celebrating his birthday after his mum past away. I find that so sad ):
Eco: Watched The September Issue ! We didn't get much through it though because the speakers kept having problems. I wanted to watch it last year when it was released in cinemas but i never ended up watching it. Although it's a documentary, it was still really interesting. Unless you aren't into fashion, that is. I downloaded it after i got home so i shall continue watching it tomorrow maybe.

I think i'll go to bed early today because i feel so sleep deprived. I can't believe we're going to be in year twelve after the holidays. I don't feel ready to take on the HSC just yet ): Time really does go too fast and the older you are, the faster it feels. I remember when one year use to feel so long back in primary school. How nostalgic, i miss those carefree days.

I think i want these shoes, but they're too high for lots of walking or standing ):




Edit: I forgot to mention that my phone battery sucks so badly ! I got home at 5:30 and i only had 10% battery left. I mean, i was using the internet and listening to music but i charge my phone every single day. Apple needs to do some improving don't you think?

Skipping again


Hm, i usually am very eager to blog everyday but for some reason i feel that i have nothing much to say today. I didn't end up going to school again D: Well, i was planning to, but i woke up and thought Year 12 graduation. We only have 2 periods anyway. Meh, no point going to school. And so i didn't go :3 Yay, last day tomorrow and then holidays ! I feel like i've been spending so much lately. I spent $440 online so far ): I still need to chip in for two people's presents plus i need to buy a present for my mum and i need to get a costume that'll cost around $55. I feel so broke now ):

I'm so annoyed at ImageShack ! After they made some changes, the multiple upload option doesn't work on Chrome ): Actually, it's Blogger's fault in the first place for having such a bad uploader (size wise).

I bet Irene would like these green tea cupcakes :3

Downing Centre


Woke up at 6:30 today for the Legal excursion to the Downing Centre. I can't remember the last time i woke up so early and i still almost missed the bus, but luckily i managed to run to the stop before it got there. The day started off being rather boring. The teachers were fussy over behaviour, the staff at the Downing Centre were somewhat unfriendly/unwelcoming and some students were so noisy and wouldn't freaking shut up. It was so annoying. If they didn't want to be there, why go in the first place? *angry face* We managed to sit as audience for two trials. The first was on the explosion in Nando's, Broadway back in 2008 and the second was a case on armed robbery at a hotel. I haven't actually been to court before so it was rather nerve racking to be sitting in such a formal atmosphere. For lunch we were meant to stay in a certain food court but there was literally no yummy food there and we just had to meet up at Museum station afterwards so we ended up at Pepper Lunch :3 I wanted pudding but they ran out ):

Have i mentioned how inconsiderate my brother is sometimes? He was driving on his racing set and the volume was so loud my house sounded like some race course. I could still hear it after i got up and closed his door !

Nocturnal



Must.Sleep.Early.Tonight !
I have to be at Strathfield by 7:30 for the Legal excursion so i think i need to wake up at around 6:30 D:

The year twelves are so evil. They ran into our classroom during SOR with cymbals and scared me so much because i sit near the door ): And they also stuck sticky tape around everyone's lockers. There was a girl wearing an Alice costume and i so want to steal it for Lizzy's costume party. I still don't know what i'm going to wear and i need to think of a present to make (since she wants hand made presents). I had an idea but Yvonne is making that object so now i'm idealess again ): Suggestions anyone?

My phone internet connection has been so horrible all day. I was trying to use it on the train and it wouldn't load. Stupid dodgy connection *angry face*.


Melody


Hehe i have a few songs i want to learn in the holidays. Should be fun :3

Current list:

BoA - Copy and Paste MV teaser







In need of a costume


School was such a waste of time today. Ms Roy was on the Business excursion so we were watching a video on the foundations of English law. I must admit that it started off being somewhat interesting because it was talking about English history, which i like, but then it got pretty boring. We had Ms Nickels and she even left half way through the lesson to find the class she was apparently also meant to be supervising so i just played on my phone :D There were only eleven people in class. Eco was useless too because we were meant to be researching for our first assessment task but i don't like doing assessment task work at school because... well, i just like doing them at home where i can focus. I was really surprised when we got our English results back because i honestly felt that my Othello essay was a lot better than my Catcher/Six Degrees essay. Turns out i did better in my Catcher/Six Degrees one, shockingly. I was actually pretty happy with that mark but not so with my Othello one because i did pretty bad. I don't think i answered the question properly *sigh*. I also think it's because we had Mr Ryan at the time and he isn't exactly a serious teacher. We hardly ever did anything in class really. In sport we rode to the Maccas opposite the Aquatic Centre and just sat there eating/chatting :3 Yay, no more sport lessons for the rest of my life !

There are so many birthdays coming up next month ! There's Ling, Christine Liu, Joyee and Lizzy. Oh, and my mum (: Lizzy is apparently going to have a "costume party" for her 18th and we have to dress up. I think it'll be really fun and i have a few ideas on what to go as but i don't actually have the clothes/materials to make the costume ): Plus i don't have a sewing machine and the last time i used one was all the way back in year eight when textiles was compulsory. Hm, what to do? I don't exactly want to buy one because i'll probably never wear it again... Someone make me a costume ):

I really should sleep earlier or i'm going to be half asleep in tutor tomorrow. I ended up sleeping at around 2 last night D:


Stupid Avex D: !

JYJ Dropped From Avex, Promotional Activities On Hold

“We can’t shake off the thought that Avex was using the three of us as tools to make more profits, instead of treating us as artists.”

Such an opinion was made by JYJ (Xiah Junsu, Hero Jaejoong, Micky Yoochun) about their Japanese company Avex, after their announcement of JYJ’s promotion discontinuation in Japan.

On the 17th, JYJ released: “First, we are sorry to our fans to have to bring them this kind of news” and that “We were very sad to have received news of a promotion cessation despite all of our cooperation and discussions with Avex”.

They continued: “It feels very stifling to not be able to fulfill our promise to meet our Japanese fans” and that “In order to solve this, we need the consent and attention from our fans”. They added: “We hope to be able to meet our fans as soon as possible when our promotions are resumed”.

Avex dropped JYJ’s Japanese promotions because the Korean company JYJ was affiliated with were allegedly attached to organized crimes of extortion and blackmail.

JYJ responded, saying that their Korean company had yet to be judged on whether or not it was affiliated with organized crimes. Avex shot back an accusation that JYJ had known about the issue before they even signed the contract.

JYJ then clarified: “That content does not break our current contract with Avex, so it cannot be the cause for a discontinuation in promotions, nor nullification of our contract”. Also, “Many months ago, because of this same issue, Avex requested that C-JES Entertainment be omitted from the contract. …JYJ agreed to this request and devotedly participated in the contract discussions because we wanted to have smooth promotions within Japan”.

They further criticized: “But Avex gave JYJ a substantially disadvantageous condition different from what we had originally agreed on the contract; once we declined that condition, they suddenly developed this stance to cancel the contract based on C-JES’s alleged crimes”.

In relation to this contract case, lawyer Im Sang Hyuk of Se-Jong Law Firm (the law firm that is in charge of the legal aspect of this case) commented, “It was immoral of the company (Avex) to put JYJ in a tight spot just because they acted in such a way that would not satisfy the company (Avex)’s greed”. He emphasized that “Many efforts will be put into solving this case so that JYJ can continue their promotions smoothly in Japan”.

On the 16th, Avex revealed through JYJ’s official homepage on their website that In order to obey the morals of working principles in our company headquarters, we have judged that we cannot manage JYJ’s promotions.

Nightmares


I just found out, from asking a few friends, that my blog template looks somewhat stuffed if you have a monitor leaning towards the smaller end. But i don't even maximise my windows and it looks fine ): This sucks. Now i'm paranoid about how it looks from different people's monitors. Is my monitor really that big?.. It doesn't feel that big to me. It was bigger before my brother stole it and gave me a one inch smaller one, hmph ): Just in case you're wondering, it's meant to look like this. I think most people can't see the back to the top? Fifi Lapin i just added ):



Moving on, i had a pretty bad dream this morning. It doesn't sound all that scary but i was quite scared when i finally woke up. I only remember bits of it but i think i was waiting for the bus with my mum and there were heaps of other people at the bus stop too. The bus came, everyone got on and it kept driving and driving until i started thinking where are we? It was driving along some cliff and when it turned, i seriously thought we were going to tumble off the cliff. Then suddenly the bus stopped, everyone got off and started walking in different directions but i didn't know where to go. I kind of forgot what happened next but i think i was walking and out of nowhere dead bodies appeared at my feet and they started dragging my down with them. I can't really describe it but at this point i sort of felt like i was half awake and half dreaming and i was trying to wake myself up. So then i kept trying to wake up from my dream but i kept getting pulled down by the dead bodies. It felt very real. When i finally managed to wake up, i was pretty much in a state of shock ): I hate nightmares. I actually haven't had one in quite a while.

I wish we had three day weekends ):
