hi again

have moot posted in a long while...

anyhows, since my last, I have discovered what hypocrites the Americans are lol. we often criticise China for their censorship of information and google and such things but America has done likewise...with the frozen planet series I rambled about last time the American media was forbidden from broadcasting the final episode as it was on climate change, something that the American government, apparently, says doesn't exist. now that's silly and I feel like rambling but no more today =)

a white world

so, over the the last weeks I've been following David Attenborough's Frozen Planet series (don't ask where the time came from) and its quite amazing the things you see. I wonder how many hours they spent filming to get some of those shots...anyhow..its amazing how much these extremities of Earth can actually impact on us. I really think Attenborough loves his job...cos i would =D

anyhows, dont feel like rambling the rest of what was on my mind cos...well....chem of art due tomoro and needs to make sure i has everything. =( and then cramming physics, maths and english over the weekend. so maybe i'll stay quiet...unless i find something incredibly outrageous to rant about.

Until then...bye~

long time no see

so it truly is long time see...i ssee to have neglected my blog for quite a while now. but the truth is, I'm quite busy punting out my 14units and no I dont have an accelerated course in the 14...and its kinda 3 weeks until the end of the year but it doesn't feel anything like it...the stress and panic of it all is quite a lot. assessment week next week and I feel nowhere near prepared...and then I have to hand in my music composition process diary end of the assessment week and viva voce for ext2 english to prepare for in wk10.. I'm cramming as much work as I can every night/morning so the last couple of days, the earliest I've slept at is 1.30am. yes, I'm learning the hard way that there arent enough hours in a day...and surprisingly enough I have not resorted to V...yet.
anyhow, had quite a horrible day...missed my bus, walked back home to get tissues with a nosebleed (havnt had one in ages....) and only find that after a trek with my arm dripping with blood that my rents had left the house...>< yea... oh well...i survived =)
anyhows, chemistry time again...

hehe...posted at the minute of elevens =D and its remembrance day too =) anyhows, I caught the minute =D and its sad to know this is the second last of these special days for another millenium (or century since in 2102 they'll prolly write '02 but yeaa)

Anyhow,
Happy Remembrance Day

feeling special

random thought...you know when we were little kids, how we vowed to be special, no matter what it was add long as we had something that noone else had...heres a kiddie memory amd I supposed it possible you did it too but mb not seeing add the different lifestyles of Sydney vs hk..i remember being a little kid in HK and on the double decker buses I used to find many things to make me feel cool =) first was sitting at the front of the top level, the only seats with seatbelts! =O yes, I loved that seat cos then I felt like I was driving (yes, one of those little boy things). then you know how on a bus on the third/fourth last row, where the wheels are, how the floor kinda buckles in to accomodate the wheel? yes that wad a seat that gave the kiddie me some awesomeness...

anyhows, if I somehow managed to keep you reading... I'll admit that this wasn't really a 'random thought'...i wrote it cos...well, I feel special today :) why? I'll have to let you ponder about that ;)

vocal music

before I begin, i refer to classical music when I say vocal, not pop music. anyhows, I used to remember the times when I absolutely hated vocal music esp if it involved a solo singer or the standard SATB soloists... but I'm recent times I find myself listening to more of these pieces. and ohh never knew asians could sing opera well...><" I was so shocked to watch beethoven's symphony 9 being sung in Japan by 4 Japanese people xD like their voices easily be mistaken as a Europeans' which I initially thought it was....yhh anyway, my music studies seem to be taking me to different places I would have never explored which I guess is a good thing but also means I now have 15gb of music =D

October 14, 2011

piano exam

zomg...i have less than a week until piano exam and i feel like crap...so unprepared and unmotivated.  ><" and i have the same examiner as i got for grade 7 meaning my chances of failing are even higher ><" and omg...i'm so screwed ><" fuuuuuuuuuuu =( i really hate piano exams =( bahh watch me fail =( bye~

October 13, 2011

Grand Piano D=

I. Want. A. GRAND. PIANO.

I actually have a very specific criteria in mind too =) must be white (preferably vintage white), has to be a fukll concert grand (the longer the better), must not be a kawaii, must either be a japanese yamaha or a european maker, must have digital playback (yes where the piano can play the keys on its own and record what you play and play that back too), must have beautiful golden wheels (baulko music would know how un-sexy the (not so) new wheels + retarded frame looks on our grand). ohh, and must have a awesomely perfect resonance chamber/soundbox such that if you hum into the soundbox, it will sustain your note for a few seconds =D

hehehe...high demands i have made xD one day, i shall find this piano =) though ofc after i move into a new house (which i hope will be soooon) =)

October 9, 2011

nooo...

well, looks like my holidays have come to an abrupt end...and tomoro marks the start of year twelve (even though we're still on the yr 11 timetable for now) and i seem very prepared for the oncoming year..not. well tbh, i have spent much of these holidays just being lazy with the comfort that this is essentially the only set of holidays i will spend not studying in some way or another. but i tried to study mainly physics and some english..and tried to do some music but really only got to brainstorm small ideas on my whiteboard which doesnt exactly work =/ so i'm screwed... anyhows, like i have quite a year ahead especially when so many of my yearly marks are bordering bogan fail... so really i'm dreading going back to school cos i think the first thing we'll do is look at our yearlies ><" so i'm f**cked and arrghhh, just want to burn that yearly report =D

anyhows, i shall prolly not post very often as of now, unless i get bored on some bus ride or something and post from my phone =) but yes, you'll have to wait patiently to read another rambling post from me...

so long for now~

October 7, 2011

phone blogging

sit seems that phone blogging is quite fail and annoying...so much that it managed to post my last post three times, once a minute over three minutes =.=" oh wel, as most people know, i havnt actually sat at my home laptop and used it for the majority of these holidays nor have i been on facebook and i dont have a craving to go on either =) anyhows, these holidays have been rather nice with a few outings here and there, namely city, parra park, parra, eastwood, carlingford yhh and mixed with some study but i think it leans towards the fun side more xD mainly because i am taking advantage of my last unstressful holiday for a long long year to come (which really will go by pretty quickly which i am kind of dreading) oh wells, time to go study some english and finish english tutor homework which kinda never happened at Joanna's but was supposed to...yhh

ciao~

learning to read

so it seems my mind has too gone into holiday mode and hence my absence of blogging x)

anyhows, I've been chatting a lot with one of my cousins a lot lately and in these convos I seem to learn a lot of stuff, some useful and some just completely trivial...one of which is to read people =) and I guess its boot really something that valuable but over time it has come to great use and amusement being able to interpret people by their actions and whatnots. whilst intriguing at times, I must say the great thing I've gained from this isnt the ability to read (most) people but the fact that it can work in reverse to conceal myself without giving things away. But ofc all great things always have their downside...so I think I shall stop hiding so much at home since I am a person who tends to hold in negativity like anger, pain and sorrow until I violently blow up in vulgar language and destructiveness. not really a side most people see =) and I think I'm ranting about myself again so I'll stop. how selfish of me! laters.

September 25, 2011

the end draws near...

every year, we move up the high school ladder of seniority..and really each year, i havnt given that much of a damn about it, but friday was essentially the last time i'd be able to look and watch them leave. and this year was i guess in many ways much harder to let go of. I know so many people from yr12 of '11 and so many have helped me in one way or another...whether it was for notes, their past essays, maths lessons the night before exams, helping pull together a volleyball team or even just someone who i could rant to and someone i could ask questions about anything and everything when i needed to. From year seven i really thought some of you were jerks but as we aged i found that many of you werent who i really thought you were and valued you all...and some of you promised to visit, so you better =)

well, i guess its goodbye and thanks for all the support and stuff =) yhh and hopefully i didnt killl toooo many braincells of one particular ;D and goodluck for HSC =) byebye~


anyhows, i shall have to disappear =(

September 21, 2011

its over =)

yay so this is seemingly the last ramble on exams cos theres only music prac left but mehh xD anyhows, I would like to believe I didn't fail chem yesterday but something tells me otherwise but idc... its only year 11, right?

and ohhh, yesterday I realised a meter isnt as long as I thought it was =/ yhhhhh...

September 19, 2011

depressing

the more I think about these exams the more depressing I find them...physics was crap cos I fail and hence I'd be quite satisfied with a 70% (well, not really but I dont think ill even achieve a 70), maths and me dont mix very well and due to my stupidity I think I'll be happy with 70% for both 2u and 3u...no more about maths. ok so really the only subjects I essentially have any hope in is music and english. however, for a test out of 35, music doesn't look that great esp when one makes the mistake on key signature...fuarrrk! and yhh I'm pretty sure I lost another 3 marks...well there goes my 90%... and english well, I kinda prepared it the night before and winged it...so not looking great but I have hopes for a mid b to low a range essay =D and chem is tomoro and I'm absolutely fked so yhh. I'm depressed.

September 18, 2011

almost there...

so it seems like i'm nearly finished with all the exmas but what's left are the ones that are quite important and 2 of which i am going to potentially bogan fail. not joking.

this is what remains:
english adv
phys
adv maths
music theory
maths 3u
chem
music 2 prac

i am somewhat confident about music 2 prac exam which is quite abnormal...and in usual concurstances i would be rather happy...but the fact that i'm confident with it and i havn't been confident in sciences or maths makes me highly depressed. ok since i havnt exactly studied that much in the last two days...i think i should stop blabbering and go study instead. I have so much i want to spill but....later.

September 14, 2011

exams

exams are very gay
end of story.

ok, despite saying I will bomb English... wasnt kidding. a 2 hour combined lesson with my English buddy seemed effective to give me some direction. meaning I now have a thesis of sorts. a bunch of related quotes. 2 themes. an intro. ideas for the body. a very fluid and brisk plan. a well set mind. and no essay. I'm still screwed but hopefully not as screwed. and apologies to the english teacher who reads my essay... I'm sorry but you'll have to study through my ramble... ok I'm not sorry, so suck it up! =D and give me goood marks pleeeaaasssee! ;D

September 11, 2011

zomg...i hate exams

i have really been out of studting these weeks and whilst exams are looming in, with exams starting tomoro (well tuesday for me..but that's not the point) i have come to the conclusion i am going to actually fail a series of exams for once. I guess I'm not the only one who's having difficulties studying, after all...the last two sets of major exams at baulko were placed after a term break meaning we all had a week to chill then a week to cram...and although I (like many) complained about 'losing our holidays'..i now see how much benefit was gained from having extra study time. oh well...i should stop mindlessly rambling and study instead...

September 9, 2011

variety night

more like vocal night but oh well... it was ok, to me it felt like a night with way too many performances crammed in, not that many were great so it was quite dreary for most parts... but when there were good performances, they were quite smashing =D and band was pretty crap (as always) but I had to go after I skipped playing at prefect induction which resulted in getting threatened with having my 'head ripped into pieces' so yhh... yr12 finale was pretty good but some things could have been better but hey I shan't complain cos thats gunna be me in 12 months =( ohh, and good job sound team..for using 2 faulty mikes =) and uhmms, idk...it was a nice night since I got to have a nice chat to some old friends =) and spent the second half talking to another particular...it was a nice distraction from all the things on my mind.

and to those around me, things have happened and I apologise for being so snappy, moody, ignorant, and whatnot to you. I have a lot on my mind and I guess its just this accumulation of things that I dont say, that has crushed me slowly until recently when I just couldn't handle it and collapsed...its gunna take a while but I'll get to sort my mind out and be up on my feet soon. and thanks to those who know what's going on and putting up with me.. I'll make it up to all of you in the near future.

anyways, I shall stop dwelling on such thoughts, try and use the remaining days I have left to study where possible...

September 5, 2011

DONE!

it's late..but i have finished my english ext story =D yay! now since i have finished i think i will go to sleep despite having the knowledge how dodgy it will be cos i crammed in a longlong story into a short one...or as my tutor put it... an ext2-style idea in a veryvery short story ><"

oh wells, happy birthday to me!
goodnight~

September 3, 2011

lack of creativity

so my creative task for ext english is failing really hard. i am currently on 15% of story and 0% on reflection statement... couldnt they have given this to us like two weeks before and like made us hand it in two weeks earlier? fark....its coming up to exams and i'm actually panicking cos i havnt made much notes (and dont think i will anymore) and yhh...just really pissed off because i tend to have bursts of creativity but in the alst two weeks its kinda been held back by my fear of exams and so this story will seriously come out like crap and hence i shall follow my tutor's advice...write about 800 words and fthen fill out up with adjectives everywhere and changes simple short words into phrases =) how cheap but its what i have to do...and i now have to twist my statement to show that my story reflects an aspect cos i kinda deviated slightly majorly from my original semi-storyline. which means i'm not actually writing off my chosen aspect... yhh fuarrr....i'm screwed and i hate people who say "aren't you going to do 4u eng? so it should be easy for you then.." look, ext2 you get a year and that means plenty of creativity bursts this is two weeks and like just before exams therefore no creativity bursts...so yhh shush! =D anyhows, i have ranted and now i shall attempt to write more... ><"" more ranting later.
bye~

colours

hi, I know I havn't posted in a while... I've been busy and look exams are coming up..makes me sad

but oh wells...anyway, I'be had this on my mind for a while and need to get it out of my mind..

is my red your red? or in other words... are my colors the same as yours...what if your red was actually my green? =O but you've always known it as red =/ mindblown...ok I shall stop with my what if's and leave you to ponder =)

I'll post again later, in the meantime, I shall start my extension creative =( 1000 + 300 words to go TT_TT

September 2, 2011

Spring Fling

spring fling...

the first i've ever been to =) and was surprisingly good despite my late arrival due to a series of events. the fireworks were pretty nice and idk what else to say but the fact that i had fun ;) yhh

i'm tired.
time to sleep (or do ext ><")

August 27, 2011

a mixed week

SO this week has been quite a mixture of things.

monday was chem prac as said before

tuesday was the aural component of musicianship exam in the city and that was a breeze, so easy and then my mum shouted me breakfast instead of telling me off for not going to school straightaway =D

wednesday was the theory component of the musicianship thing and that was also quite easy, not much effort needed =) and yhh nothing much happened

thursday was hamlet in penrith and that wasnt too bad i guess, had i been less tired mb i would have found something useful out of it...<== many thanks to my 'shoulder pillow' =D

friday was nothing and i was really tired...and i at bball i got fouled out halfway through the first half...whoops!  i guess i was just in a really bad mood...

and today...ehh truong test., then went for an Othello study session, yes a shakespeare study sesh...sad i know.. oh well, then i came home to get told off for not going to usyd open day ><"

yhh, not much, i'm not in that much of a great mood, truong test was troll and hard and sill, as always, but then again its prolly my stupidity and failness at maths...as always.

anyhows, i shall go study a bit now

bye~

August 22, 2011

RICE + Chem Prac

Rice...it was shorter than expected and was like past years, a worthwhile experience... i dont know what else to say but ohh...i saw a lot of people there...lots of people from primary, my old church and just baulko people in general... but yeaa it was a pretty cool night =) and hope everyone there got something out of it =) especially people there for the first time =) anyway, that night ended with some weird things but heyy, look on the positive of life.

Chem prac that was today and really hate it when people tell others what is in the test...like especially if it was a test where not many people will do well...like seriously, why would you go disadvantage yourself by telling people what the entire test is on, what the questions are and even how to answer them...at baulko, the tests are always retarded there's always some trick question and seriously, many people don't realise that until its done, esp if you're the first class to do it...unfortunately by the end of the day, everyone seems to know because word has already been spread. Sigh...i'm in a really ranty mood cos i don't think i did that well in that test either..yhh ok, i shan't bore you out with rants so i shall end it here.

August 21, 2011

games night

it was....good, it flopped, it was hard, it was fun, it was boring, it kinda died, it kinda reincarnated, it was messy, but we got through it.

it got off to quite a shocking start as those would have realised, and really, was poorly received until we got to dragon-tails =) that wasn't that bad, and the momentum of that kinda carried us all the way to intermission smoothly.

After intermission, that was another shocking story...King Caractacus flopped since we didn't play it properly and i must apologise for not being able to explain it cos my voice had already turned rather husky by that time ><" so yhh my badd...anyhows, i guess, being the first of its kind, it was expected that not everything would go smoothly, but heyy, thanks guys for being patient =)

and ohh before i forget....i never thought you'd actually come, but my ehh... 'sister' aka "princess consuela bananahammock chan" actually came along and it was cool though i'm sorry about it seeming so messy, and missing your call as you wandered through baulko and also that text i didnt see until like 8pm =/

anyways, less ramble, more work...have to study up for chem tomoro, musicianship over tuesday and wednesday D= bye!~

August 18, 2011

heh...

nothing to really say...just hoping tomoro works out fine =) after months of planning and plotting, looks like games night '11 is running on full steam =)

i can't wait til its over, theres actually been a lot going on behind the scenes...one would only need to look at the band lockers we stole borrowed to see how much there is... i'll photo it =)

i dont really want to write much more for now, dont want to give anything away...and there's a lot of questions and things on my mind..questions i am seeking the answers to. hopefully one day in the near future, i will get to find these answers.

well, nothing to say until tomoro =) thou may not post til sunday cos theres RICE as well =D
bye~

August 14, 2011

was studying...

so i was actually reading stuff for physics, just to kickstart my revision mood and uhh kinda got into this webpage Physics doesn't exist, it's all about Gnomes which i shall quote bits and pieces from =)

Electricity
Inside cables there are hundreds of tiny gnomes 'high-fiving' each other and running around swapping messages. This transfer of messages allows things to work, e.g. the gnomes in a plug socket tell the gnomes in the wire, who eventually tell the gnomes in (say) a kettle to fart in the water allowing it to boil.
Atoms
Atoms are in fact minuscule gnomes, all holding hands and feet etc together to form an intricate web from which nearly everything in the universe is comprised. Radioactivity occurs when a rebel gnome is catapulted by his friends from their structure. Should this gnome come into contact with the gnomes from our body, he will offer them beer, thus making the local area either benign or malignant. Either way, just read: cancerous.
States of matter
A solid is little more than a closely compacted configuration of gnomes all holding hands, hats and legs. Heating (see Energy) causes gnomes to become excited or tickled. They start to hopelessly lose grip of their neighbors and thus, to the human eye, form a liquid. When gnomes get tickled pink they're finally able to hold on no longer and just float away in groups of one and more. To us, and indeed to them, it's a gas. Occasionaly the gnomes get so excited they catch on fire. This is what we call a plasma.
Metallic gnomes engage in elaborate flash-mob games of happy-slapping, whereby no individual gnome can be entirely sure which others he or (in the case of trans-gendered gnomes) she is in contact with at any one time. Such gnomes, as one might expect, get easily carried away by heavy metal music. In certain situations while forming liquids, for reasons yet to be fully explained (some authorities suspect it may be just an excuse for covert foreplay) gnomes get unbearably cold, in which case they all gather together, huddle up and, astonishingly, take on the appearance of ice. Colloids such as jello or glue are readily explicable: colloidal gnomes have a weakness for jello and similar squishy, greasy foods; the super-gnome content (see below) of such snacks is exceedingly high, so they themselves soon end up pretty fat and squishy, too.
Gravity
As you've probably noticed, gnomes like the ground. They all strive to be in the ground, hence the gnome explanation for gravity: not theory but fact. Gnomes throw minute ropes, invisible to the human eye, to the ground. These ropes attach to unseen hooks that enable muscle-toned gnomes to pull themselves towards terra firma. There is minimal gravity far from planetary bodies (i.e. in space) because no known gnomes have access to cables of sufficient length. All bodies experience gravitational attraction to each other quite simply because gnomes are, to put it mildly, sociable creatures who practically invented what they like to call the hearty party. Gnome all-nighters are where gravity waves meet Mexican waves.
Light
If you think about it, it’s quite obvious, really. The gnomes that make up our eyes can see what colour hats other gnomes making up, say a table, are wearing. They then hi-five gnomes in our 'optical nerve' who run to tell the brain gnomes what has been seen. This makes us think we are seeing things when in fact it's all gnomes. 
Anti-matter
Now this is a little more complicated. There are evil anti-gnomes. These make up anti-matter. Done.
Energy
All types of energy are transferred through gnomes. Heat is just gnomes rubbing other gnomes. Potential energy is when gnomes don't want to be separated (see Gravity). Kinetic energy is the movement of gnomes. Energy is always conserved so fundamental gnomes (see below) are only ever transferred and never made or destroyed. Energy caused by nuclear fission is when you make a hypergnome very angry, and when it gets angry enough it explodes, causing an enormous explosion. But gnomes are very amiable creatures, so this never happens. Nuclear energy is a lie. 

ofc, if you want more, the link is always up there. Now i'm actually worried about physics cos all i'll think of is frikkin gnomes x(

english...othello...not.

whilst in the process of procrastinating researching othello... i came acroos a range of photos =)





tadaah~ well, time to stop procrastinating ehh... start doing work =)
