Week 9: What a way to start the week, eh?

[Edited: i've gone back to black because, for some reason or other, white is giving me a massive headache each time i stare at it. and i think black is fitting for the current occasion *inside joke that no one is laughing at*. anyway i can't be fucked re-editing my photos because as you can all see now, they were adjusted to fit into a white background! unless i have a lot of spare time (which i don't!), i'll prolly not do anything about it. so yea, cheers to a more sombre atmosphere!]

i've finally collected enough points to write another post yippee! actually, there is a lot going on for me at the moment; some things which i may write about someday, other things which i do not care for putting down in words. anyway, presenting number..

1. it is well and truly pre-winter now (not as cold and miserable as winter, yet cold and miserable enough). if you have been a reader way back when this blog began, you would know how much i loath cold and winter. LOATH. for 3 months i will be unhappy, grouchy, miserable, snappish and depressed. but in the midst of all these misery, this winter i shall have one happy spot of sunshine!

behold, my very cheerful black trenchcoat!




2. following up on the topic that is shitty sydney weather...

the title for the most temperamental, fucked up and PMS-like being in the whole wide universe goes to sydney weather! hurrah! a fortnight ago, every single day (and i mean monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday sunday EVERY SINGLE DAY) was cold, wet, windy and full of doom and gloom! the whole two weeks i seriously beh tahan, all i wanted to do was crawl under my comforter and sleep away the months till september arrived. and then, suddenly the whole of last week was all bright and sunshine-y! oh my god la, what the fuck is going on?! why so like that wan!?!

any melbournians care to contradict and claim the title for their own fair city? i know how the weather can be there too..i was/am a survivor!

3. two heartbreaks for two hearts broken. i think we're even now, karma.

4. there was much morbidity and talks of bath tubs and wrist-slitting between me and yunnie which might have misled some people into thinking that i was suicidal or depressed. anyway, contemplating about suicide and death is one thing, but actually being very nearly in a situation like that is another completely different matter.

today when i was crossing the road while walking to uni, i nearly got hit by a car that managed to stop on time. the driver of the holden commodore then proceeded to give me the death stare while blaring his carhorn at me. all i could think of was...oh, there's the light follow the light mel! anyway, i don't want to die yet la! i still have damn a lot of things to accomplish ok!? like, getting married *virginal blush* and wearing a long white strapless gown and throwing my wedding bouquet so that some unsuspecting girl friend of mine will catch it and we can all tease her about how she's getting married next!!!

so yea, no plans on dying yet.

5. this is the un-unabridged version of the story:

i bought a brand new pair of heels. 2 days later i flew back to kl. wore said pair of heels one night at somo. left it at the back of my kelisa. fast forward a week later. picked up people for a yum cha session. while leaving the car, someone kicked one side of my heel out of the car and on to the road. next morning, father of the house found the shoe and chucked into tong sampah. hell ensued and waterworks followed. shoe repaid. i flew home.

there you go. hope you got the message. anyway, i was walking about pitt street on friday and i saw the same shoe but with a 30% discount of the original price!! needless to say, i'm a very very HAPPY girl.




6. msn conversation of the day (actually it was last night).

Daniel L says:
u owned a house
with a few problems
but its still your house

susu-atari says:

a few leaks here and there
and a broken roof tile
nothing too major that couldn't be fixed
until the termites got into the structure!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHA

7. i did it. just like how you told me i should. but why am i still feeling terrible?

8. today was a brilliant day. bright sunshine. blue skies. not a cloud in the sky. my eyes saw but my brain could not comprehend. WHY? hello world, it's me again.
