FANTASTIC TIME

OHHHHH MAN SKIING AT PERISHER WAS SOOOOOO EXCITING! I haven't had such a thrill ride in ages...

and to make things even better, Ben and I have been getting along very well :)

And to make things even more better, I have just finished 2 big assignments it feels great to be able to relax for just a day before i have to get back at it again.

Fantastic week!

Ferris wheel... no thanks

Please remind me NEVER to get on a Ferris wheel in South Korea... After reading a sad story about how a family trip to a Carnival turned deadly, my question of whether a ferris wheel could ever capsize got answered. 5 of the 7 members of the family who were on the same ferris wheel carriage tragically fell out of the ferris wheel and only two survived. So sad... Remember always hold on to the side panels!

people come and go

I was looking at this picture and I realized how many people have come into my life and go... It happened in Cuba...then in America...then in Russia... and even now in Australia... I mean all the people in this pic have either left or will one day just be a memory in the back of my head...or wherever your memory bank in located in your brain...like always, we will find each other again through the internet and will get excited but after a couple of weeks or perhaps months, it will become a burden and we will lose each other again, well except on xmas...everyone will get their own families and get new friends and be in different countries and all the good and the bad between the people you used to know, start to fade as each year passes by... right now we say we will know each other forever, but being realistic, time will fade everything...

60 more or perhaps 2 months

My friend Katya brought to my attention that in just 2 months, I will be turning 22! Wow time travels so fast! SERIOUSLY! So young... and yet so old :P

2 Months til 22... crazy...

Its funny how the majority of the people in our ressies are clustered into 2 seperate months... Jenny, Yammas and Xtina all in July and then the Octobers being Read on the 10th, Me on the 11th and Tim Tam on the 31st... crazy...

doesn't make sense

I think it is quite interesting how people are very hesitant to pay $10 to go to a party that provides alcohol and yet they are willing to pay $8 or more on 1 beer or 1 other alcoholic beverage. It doesn't make sense to me the decision behind those people. I mean, the amount of beverages they get served at the party for that $10 would cost over $50 at a bar... and yet people are more willing to pay that at a bar... it just doesnt make sense...

What to do?

Sometimes when you sit down and reflect on your life and how things are going, you start noticing how much you shut yourself down emotionally in order to keep going. You let people take advantage of your kindness and you let people blame you for their own ways. You start noticing little things that normally you just brush off your shoulder because they are not a big deal but when you look at them in detail, you realize that those little things are a hint of that persons weakness.

You start dreaming of being somewhere else where you know you are safe, like your parents home or a place where you are alone, away from the world, away from those who stress you out, away from everything that is wrong in your world. You start using your imagination to set you free and escape situations by imagining a better life, better friends, better partners etc. But upon that dissection of your life, you start to realize that things will get better one day, if you let them be, if you choose to make changes in your life, even if it means shedding some ties.

As they always say, life will always go on no matter what, and only the fittest will truly survive, look at your life, are you fit to survive with the way things are?

Some people wont change...so lets do karoke!

I have realized that some people will never change who they are because they will always keep being selfish and think about themselves. It is a fact of life. It is quite disappointing, but hey, who the hell cares... they will swim in their own little world while I go Karaoke! HAHAHA! Yes last nite was my first Karaoke experience. After receiving a phone call from Tim Tam and Squina, I left the Unipub and rushed to their sides and sang the Shoop Shoop song (Its in his eyes) by Cher... with Katya by my side ofcourse :). Apparently I had a fan in the crowd coz we left with Tim Tam and his crew to go to Unipub and then left again to go to Chicken Gourmet. On our Chicken Gourmet, this French guy was like "I have got a question for yall" and Katya was like "Question for who?" and he was like "Question for her (pointing to me)"... Orione then realized that the guy spoke french so they started to talk in French the whole way to Chicken Gourmet... apparantly about me... but I was way too driven to get to Chicken Gourmet that I was running all the way there...HHAHAHA... so we got to chicken gourmet and he was still obsessing over me but then we decided to leave coz Katya was tired so we went around looking for a taxi and eventually got one and the taxi driver was awesome... apparently he goes to UC... and we were like "Can we be your friends?" and he laughed and even offered to discount our taxi fare but we wanted to pay the full fare...And then i freaked out coz i couldnt find my keys... so we woke poor ol' Jenny up... and then i realized my keys were still in my door hole... woops... hahahaha...It was a pretty fun nite despite the 2 people i realized that will never change...But i guess it is their life... TISK TISK...
