The list just keeeeeeps growing.
I swear, the more often I do not update the longer my list of personal complaints seem to grow.
I've kept in mind the idea of showing you guys what Lion Dancing is, yet alas I've been pressed for time.
Ah, I suppose I'll keep the complaints list short today.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I WENT AND FAILED MY FUGGING DRIVING TEST!!!!! *mentally hits head on the table*
T_T I knew what I did wrong as soon as I did it but it didn't change a thing. *sigh* If you must know what I did wrong, it's that I did what could be described as a 'Californian stop', rather stupidly at a 'stop sign'.
In case you don't know what I meant by the last paragraph. It is when you slow down almost to a stop as you reach the intersection but notice the road is clear, so rather than stopping completely you keep going.
Makes me want to pretend I want to cry.
I think I'll change my avatar to cheer myself up. |

Is Mew a little on the pathetic side?
Yes she is.
I found when I got home that mum somehow managed to stuff up her computer so it couldn't go online.
I also found that my parents couldn't exactly afford to get broad band for my new computer.
So why is Mew just a little on the pathetic side?
After what seems to be a lifetime, I've dragged my old computer out from the corner and plugged it in so I could go online. Albeit, with a painfully slow connection and painfully slow processor. But internet nevertheless therefore I shan't complain too much.
What I will complain about is the state in which mum and I found the house in. Typically I'm not exactly the cleanest person and have been known to leave the odd half eaten packet of some sort of squishy food of any particular type.
However, I don't know what happened but in these past two weeks I've made efforts to neaten my room up about five times.
Mostly to remove the residue of my brother who spent/spends hours in here on my new computer playing fricking games. When I say residue I really do mean residue, I don't know what that man's skin is made of but for example, I did I major clean up of the computer area scrubbing the table nice and clean, the keyboard nice and clean and the mouse nice and clean and dust free etc. etc
The next day I disgusting layers of his skin have already built back up onto the mouse.
And the table.
And the keyboard letters 'w' and 's'.
ew.
Do you want to know what else I found when I got back home? It was worse than dust, no, it was worse than a neglected house with coatings of grim. How about rancid water?
There was rancid water, a large basin of it. Mum and I were gone for just over a week and there's a basin of rancid water.
It gets worse.
It was the same water which had my stamps floating in it because somehow I had let my dad convince me to soak them all at once to remove the excess paper. I was not happy. I asked him in an almost yelling tone, "couldn't you smell that the water had gone off????!!". He said "no".
Good grief, I had never felt so obssessed with cleanliness til now.
I hope all of you are relatively clean. OR ELSE.

Btw, sorry for not being around for the past week :P |

DA DADA DA DADA DA DADA *DRUM ROLL*...
I had so very much forgotten how much I looooove watching Lion Dancers. More specifically the more common, Southern Lion Dance.
[imagine properly inserted picture of impressive Lion Dance move here, because for some reason photobucket won't work properly]
Makes me wanna just take up Lion Dancing again :P
Yes, I'm sure none of you knew that I did indeed do so at one point last year, however after my initial lessons I couldn't take the punishment. Seriously, after prancing around for about an hour I wasn't able to walk properly for 3 days, and the pain didn't go for another 3. By the time I recovered I had to go back for another lesson.
Ah... good times good times. It's so much fun though. Because I was the smallest (and only female of the group) I was given a smaller lion head to work with and they are honestly, incredibly heavy.
Thus I have nothing but respect and awe for Lion Dancers ^___^
Anyhow, I had gone to Sky City last night, which is the only casino/hotel/convention centre/restaurant/major tourist attraction/other stuff in New Zealand. Mum took me up to the bar with her friends to appreciate the music and a bit of a dance.
Might I add that I think I might become a gold digger when I grow up : /
Some of you may remember sometime ago about me complaining about grotty old guy eyeing me up. Well, that was in the same aforementioned place.
This time, (a different) grotty old guy asks me to dance 0_o" I suppose if I could get past the cringe worthy nature of the situation I could say that it was cool, since I learnt how to dance in a swing rock? style.. something.. I don't.. remember..
... well.. yea..
.. that's just it..
I mean.. YEA, I'm soooo flattered old men find me attractive!!!
~_~
Never mind that, I'm going home on Monday, so says my mum which basically means that I'll get my own, private.. genuinely mine-o-mine internet next week.
Have a nice weekend everybody. |

frying an egg
Well.. some how I've managed to sneak online again for a quick wordie :P Okay, so I haven't got meself a proper internet, nor have I been home for about a week, so until I do get home I can't exactly make the move to get internet for my computer.
Ah ha! The paradoxes.
Did I mention?
Happy Chinese New Year!!!
Which means a brand new start to the year ^___^ The year of none other than the rooster.
Yes, well.. that was the first decent picture I could find in 20 seconds.
With the New Year in mind:
Hopefully tomorrow goes well and I will pass my practical driving test.
Hopefully I will lose my fear of Maths with Statistics (or math for that matter 0_o)
Hopefully I will have saved up enough moo-lah for an ipod by the end of the year.
Hopefully I will be successful in whatever I do, especially for my final exams in preparation for University.
Hopefully it'll be a kick-ass final year of high school because if it ain't.. well it would just suck wouldn't it?
And you know what?
While we're on the topic of hoping, I'll make a flight of fancy and hope I might meet some people that I know online IRL.
Now that is being wishy washy.
I like poptarts.. and kittens. Very difficult to stuff into toasters though XD |

...argh.. need... cold... air..
Hopefully I'll get a proper internet connection this Sunday. Meanwhile my apologies for irregular visitations to my friends, since I know y'all missed me ^_~
I seriously can't think of a lot at the moment except how hot it is, how humid it has been.. just.. the heat.. humidity.. so..
unbearable!! I don't know how those people who live in tropical countries where it's usually 30 celsius or above or something. If I were to live in a country that warm constantly, I wouldn't be capable of doing anything properly.
Simply because the heat around here just saps my energy. I'd rather the weather was on the cooler side than the colder. I'm practically in my underwear and all I can feel is sticky sticky sticky heat.
Not nice, not to mention with a hole in our ozone layer you can feel your skin cook quite literally as soon as the sun hits you :P
Anyway, I'll amuse you guys. I don't have a very good photo but that's just my opinion.
Guess which one is Mew Wem..
That's most of the 'family', at least the one I hang out with at school.
I'll give you a few clues (mean ones at that):
-I'm one of two people that are from Hong Kong in that photo, so for goodness sakes, don't mix me up with the girls from China, Malaysia or Taiwan!! :P
-I don't like the sun.
^_~ I'll try show you guys the answer tomorrow, if not tomorrow the day after.. if not the day after, as soon as I can and hopefully you people will still remember.
So what are you waiting for? Take a guess, take a guess, take a number and take a guess.. ^_^ |

Here are several days worth of updates..
Okay, so I haven't been able to get a stable internet connection yet, so I've sat around and typed this up and waited until I could get some internet so I could just quickly paste and post ths :P
Anyhow, I feel kinda bad for not being able to comment when I do visit people (which I have been) it's just that I'm in such a hurry so without further ado I shall continue on with this pointless ramble.
What has yours truly been up to? Obviously not spending as much time online as before. However what I have been doing, is go to a party and felt pretty good about not drinking, for once. That was nice. Instead I watched everyone else get drunk and was reminded just what a horrible drunk one particular friend is. She was either completely happy or completely angry, and well, mostly angry than happy. Or perhaps both at the sametime if you can imagine that. So as the sober one I looked out for her and made sure she didn't try to walk a very long, lonely, dark road out in the middle of the WAPs (countryside) to get home. And to make sure she didn't talk about things she shouldn't be ie, her sordid story of the exbf, to some unfortunate person who doesn't need to, nor should know. And to try stop her drinking anymore after she got alcohol poisoning ie, puke.
The latter didn't work out too well and I just sorta gave up on that part.
Aside from the drinking that everyone was doing, I finally got a chance to try out Sing Star, which is quite interesting. Funnily enough, I could beat some of my friends (when they were sober), the ones that had had singing lessons. That was goooooood...
Also, I went to a Chinese New Year celebration.. it's not really CNY yet though... it's not really until February... although I don't really care, since I don't get any red pockets anyhow. My relatives all live in HK :( There was a silver lining. In fact a green one. I finally got paid my $50 from mid last year (I had forgotten about it, actually I thought I already got paid for it) for some cartoon design I did.
...
You want to know what I designed you say?? Eh heh.. I drew two cartoon condoms.
That's not something you forget easily though. And I thought they were quite cute for what it was worth. It was for an awareness campaign and was supposedly printed in various newspapers and such other appropriate media. Eh, oh well, I got paid for my 15mins of work.
Which brings me to the grand total of $140 of the needed $600 that's going towards my need for an ipod.
Meanwhile I'll be taking my practical driving test on Wednesday, so if I pass.. which surely I would right? I mean, why would't I? I haven't driven over anything I shouldn't have and I haven't run into anything that I wanted to ^^" not that there's anyo--er thing that I would want to run into. When I do get my license I can finally go places, see places I've already seen, drive myself places I've been driven to before, go where I always go!!! On my own of course ^_~ that being the key difference. The only draw-back being the high fuel prices. Damn them, damn them to their hellish little pond of viscious money grubbing ways :(
hmmm.. *looks down to think for a bit*
If I were really smart I should be able to type Chinese on this key board.
hmmm... what does that key do...? *presses it*
*screen goes blank*
0_0
aw crap, phew.. for a moment there I thought that key turned off the computer XD that would've been bad, everything I've typed on this page would be gone.
It's strange though, next door I can hear my dad watching a movie about how HK came about under British rule. The strange part being that the British guy speaks with a Scottish accent.
*sigh* so I'd better not keep you any longer, I swear if you managed to read and understand every word I'd have about 10 people asleep in My O. u_u" All good things must come to an end, but only to start again later.
In about a week school starts again.
---------------
That was then
---------------
Now I'm flipped off, or not in fact. I'm just too tired to be.
Every year I tell myself I'll grit my teeth and take it without a single tear. Every year I manage to break that promise somehow. Darnit, it's not even the end of January and I've cried out of frustration.
I'm flipped off, I mean.. I was flipped off because my dad was late and made me two minutes, two fugging minutes too late for my drivers test and I had to forfeit the NZ$88.
I didn't even have a fugging chance to fail the fugging practical driving test. [insert desired swear words]. Now I still have to fugging rely on someone else to drive me around. I'm just going to stay home tomorrow and tell my friends I can't go out because no one can drive me. And I don't want my brother to drive me, because that would be illegal since he doesn't have a full license yet. However that wouldn't have been a problem if it wasn't for that stupid stupid stupid stu-pi-D-ness!!
So in my pathetic way I've spent the afternoon trying not to start crying again, which is rather difficult since I stop.. then somebody talks to me.. then it starts again *sigh*
I know dad was sorry, and it isn't his fault the car didn't start. Sorry doesn't make me feel better though :( never really did. |

*runs in, trips, rolls and ends up on feet again*
:O
I don't know how I did that.
Anyway, I'm stealing a moment on somebody else's computer which has internet!! OMFGWTFBBQ!!! Seriously, the lack of My Oing has turned my brain into slush..
Actually, it's probably the sun.
I spent the day at the beach, which reminds me I don't like the sun because I tan too easily -_- I don't like to be tanned, and neither do I understand the local people's need to BE tanned. Friggin hell people, don't they remember that NZ is lacking in an ozone layer that protects them from the sun and prevents burning!!! Don't they remember that NOT burning is GOOD and that it decreases the chances of skin CANCER!!! HUKASKLdfhIO!!
Not to mention it reminded me of why I own only two skirts, one which is a mini-skirt.
I've walked past waaaaaaaaay too many males today which looked straight down to 'admire' the lovely grass/linoleum/marble ground and snap their heads straight back up to look at my face as though not to seem like they're staring. As much as I appreciate being appreciated but it just means I either have godawfully disgusting legs which make people want to see what the hell is wrong down there, or they're shapely and very long and beautiful (not possibly long, coz I'm short).
I'll go with the beautiful part.
However I felt completely irked when some strange old guy was eyeing me, and kept walking past me and looking... eeeewww...
Note to self: stop wearing mini-skirts.
Actually, scratch that.. wear said mini-skirt no more than once a month. Unfortunately I really do thrive on male attention, especially the worshipping kind ^_~
Not that it's a bad thing.. I'm just so use to getting positive attention...
*clears throat, slightly embarassed*
Oh, and the absolute last thing I'm going to squeeze in on my last moments here.. for.. a few days..
I'm going to attend the first wedding (not weeding, jeez my typing is going nuts) on Saturday.
I've never been to a weeding, crap I meant wedding. Ooh.. how exciiting ^_^
*runs off quickly, swiftly and with great haste* |

exhaustingly exhausted with exhaustive exhaustion
aaah.. I don't really know where I've been for the past few days, in fact I haven't even been able to have to time to visit everybody's MyO's : /
sorry.
Yesterday was the day for volunteering, I helped the Tzu Chi raise money for the tsunami victims and we got close to $2000 which was pretty good. Then I went to the old people's home and spent sometime with them.
All I can say about that is that old people have very soft, cool and squishy hands... also, they shouldn't dance. A lot of them were really senile and perhaps schizophrenic as well : / I'd hate to end up like some of the people I saw there.
Then today I'm really pissed off about spending about 30mins in the karaoke place (I didn't even want to be there anyway) and having to pay $15 like everyone else. But everyone else had been there for the full 3 hours >: |
poopie, so now I owe that guy $15 since I didn't have enough on me..
aaaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh...
And I'm feeling despondent because I'm still thinking of that cute guy I met on New Years but the despondent part is that he's 3 years younger than me. I'd still think twice if he were 3 years older..
If he were 15 I could deal with that. But he's not.
But chances are I'll never see him again because he's leaving at the end of the month.
Good.
I feel better ^_^ |
