make the clocks stop

today was a pretty good day to start off the week. maybe it had something to do with meeting S first thing in the morning. i think i've already said this before but i love my friends, and i get so happy when i see them, oh and i'm referring to my high school friends (uni friends, i see you everyday and i'm just so sick of you guys, nah kidding, i love you too). so everytime i know that i'm meeting a friend/s i become very happy and it makes me all giddly inside and i tend to talk about it a lot to whoever has to hear me (and that is usually V, oh V, i'm sorry for you having to put up with me for the past couple years). So i had slept relatively early, well about half an hour earlier than usual, i've been sleeping past two everyday, which i wouldn't recommend unless you're hardcore like me.
I met up with S and we walked to uni. For some reason we were possessed with magical powers this morning and we didn't have to wait for a single traffic lights, and there were about 5 lights along the way to melb uni. i deducted that we were just awesome and thats what made the light turn green. so we had a good catching up session and talking about nothing which me and my friends have this amazing ability to do. but sad that she had to go to her lecture and i had to go to uni. i decided to walk to uni as well, so that's my daily exercise done.
the lectures today were alright, but for some reason i was feeling very sleepy after lunch and accidentally fell asleep during my lecture, i'm very self-conscious when i fall asleep and i think its very rude to the lecturer but i couldn't help myself, it was an interesting lecture too, so it wasn't the lecturer's fault as it is most of the time.
funny story, my friends and i were going to stay back for an additional lecture but then we saw everyone leaving and it took about 15 mins before we decided to leave as well. bad luck for us because our other group of friends were still at the tram stop and they were like "what are you guys doing? weren't you staying back?" yeah we were meant to get sheets for them but oh wells. hopefully nothing important was said.

this is what i wore to uni, for once my outfit posts actually are in sync with the day, i usually post up random outfits, whatever i'm in the mood for. Um yeah i had more clothes on than depicted in the photos, i wore a grey cardigan and a red jacket, so don't fear i was sufficiently warm, although it was amazing weather today, clear skies and very sunny and warmmmm.
shirt: op shop, skirt: hand made, tights: big w, socks: school brand, flats: kmart
i may of have hitched up my skirt a little too high, because when i made the skirt it was a little long so it made me look shorter than i was. i didn't realized how short it was until i was walking outside and constantly pushing  it down because i don't want to expose myself to the public, i'm not that desperate. so please guys don't judge me on the length of my skirt. i am in love with this shirt, it is soo puurrrrty, i love the lace details, but its a little big but thats oks, it doesn't make me look that fat tucked into the skirt and all.

Love Squealer.

you're so contagious





cardigan: thrifted, t-shirt: thrifted, jeans: cotton on
I went to our weekly grocery shopping with my mum today (yesterday), and it quite sunny outside, i wished i went outside to take some photos but i did have enough time. Here's hoping today's weather will be just as sunny. Well i bought this cardigan last year when i was beginning my obsession with op shops, its a bit more pricier than i what i normally spend nowadays but i really like the print on this. I've been meaning to wear it for a while and because it's winter, its perfect, it even has a winter print. And the buttons have a snowflake on them, so cool. The problem is that it's very big so its unflattering so I don't pull it off so well but it is very comfortable and i love wearing and most of all its very warm.
I got heaps of nuts while shopping, because i'm cutting back on my junk food intake, i'm compensating for that but eating nuts. I bought some pistachios, cashews and almonds. They are so addictive especially pistachios, they are so yummy and i feel like i deserve them because i have to open up the shell to retrieve the nuts. it reminds me of the stage where i ate celery, and the fact that they have negative calories which wasn't so good because i usually eat them when i'm hungry so it didn't give me much energy.
My jeans are really worn out, they're meant to be skinny legs but they have been stretched out quite a lot and the seams are coming apart and it is discolouring. the only reason why i still wear them because they are comfy and i'm stingy and hate throwing clothes away, i would give it to charity but it is beyond op shops.
examine the wear and tear.
my mum stitched the parts that were coming apart so i can still wear the jeans without it falling apart in public.

Other than the above, nothing happened today. But i did get started on writing some physiology notes so that's a start and i have some concentration calculations that i plan to do later. Well for the rest of today, i have to start my psychology essay, hmm let's aim for 100 words. tumblr was pretty boring today yet i was still on it but i didn't spent as much time on as it as i usually do.

Oh i have another plan for my birthday party, i want to go to a really cool playground for a picnic but there hasn't been any that i really liked. boy it feels weird to go a playground but i love them, they are so fun and i love swings, especially on a hot day and you can feel the breeze in your hair. i hate that because i'm old i have to sacrifice the swings to the younger kids otherwise i would be given weird looks or greasies by the parents or the children.

For some reason, in the past month my blog posts have been really short and i have compensated for that by adding heaps of photos/pictures but a year ago, my posts used to be really long but there was minimal pictures. why do i have less to say nowadays? My life wasn't that eventful last year, why can't ramble on about nothing anymore. Although i do find with shorter posts, they are easier to digest, but if i write a short post i feel like i am cheating my (very few) readers out in the internet.

wish i could turn this car around

ok so i have a problem. i think i'm addicted to tumblr, even though i don't post much, i am always on my dashboard looking at my follower's posts.  i think i have spent a lot of my time on tumblr since i started semester 2 of uni. well here's my typical day, i wake up, i go to uni, go on tumblr everytime that i can, usually during a boring lecture or during my breaks. i get really annoyed because tumblr is so slow on monash wifi and it freezes up my ipod touch. well then i go home, go on straight on tumblr, sometimes i go on msn, then i eat dinner, study for a little bit (by a little bit, i mean about 10 mins) and then its back to tumblr until i go to sleep.
i've been sleeping past 2am everyday for the past couple weeks because i've been on tumblr and i've been telling myself to sleep early but that never happens. yeah so i go to lectures really tired and sometimes fall alseep, something tells me that i won't do so well this semester. i have so many assignments that i haven't even started on. i think one night i stayed up to 4 on msn, but my excuse was because i had a late start that day.
ok so now what do i do about my addiction? as my friend pointed out, "you know every second sentence you say is about tumblr." i was telling my uni friends about my addiction and i was trying to explain tumblr to them and asking them if they could make one, but they all declined.
i think i will try to take it one step at a time to ease myself out of tumblr and onto studying, i need help guys!!!!

on some other news, i got some High School Musical hand sanitsers today for a bargain. it smells really good but  i have to limit my use because apparently too much can cause you harm.

well because i am running out of things to say, i will tell you about one boring dream of mine (as in sleeping dream, not aspirations). well it was my birthday party, and i booked a restaurant but for some reason i couldn't find the restaurant, it was apparently at Crown, but it didn't really look like Crown in my dreams. Anywho my friends and i were walking around trying to find it and then i finally asked the security guard and he gave us some directions. For some reason we were all catching a tram down Clarendon street and then i saw the restaurant but it was too late and we had to get off the next stop. so we got off the tram and walked back to the restaurant. we sat down on these couches with a round table in the middle and i think we ate chinese food and everyone said it was really nice. and then i think the dream ended. i woke up thinking "that was so mundane."

yeah sorry for the boring post, not much has happened lately, i haven't bought any new clothes and i haven't taken any outfit posts yet.

Do you want to learn to fly?

day was a very long day, by today i mean yesterday it's past midnight. i haven't had a long day at uni for a while and it sucks because i try to spend as little time at uni as possible because it depresses me and is a constant reminder of how my life sucks because i'm not where i want to be. (yes i'm being a little melodramatic, but because i cannot show tone via words, i tend to dramatize events to compensate). well i had a lecture in the morning in which i have already forgotten everything that was taught, something about complex compound naming as such. then we had a few hours break where we did some isotonicity questions in preparation for an assessment and they are painful. I kinda understand it now, we all did the same questions about 3 times and when we came to the workshop, we realized we could of handed the answers that we already written out instead of redoing all the questions. oh yeah, also during the break we went 'exploring' the uni because we had time on our hands, and found out all the buildings are interconnected and there's another flight of stairs that we could use if we wanted to be random.
also by "we", i means my friends and I, because i'm usually in a group, i have to say 'we' rather than myself.
so we finished the workshop and then went home, pretty uneventful but boy i was tired by the end of the day.

umm yeah heres an outfit post.
jumper: op shop, tights: big w, socks: school brand, flats: kmart, bag: op shop, hat: op shop

i love this jumper, its really big and warm and the print is so cool. 

making use of my amazing High School Musical post it notes. =D

happy happy

short post before i sleep. 

i had the longest prac today, it was basically me and V questioning every move that we did, and we kept thinking that we were doing the wrong thing. we were scared that we would screwed up which means we would have to start again. but then as it turns out, we did pretty good, and our graph showed "a nice trend" as our demonstrator said. i swear pracs give me the most pain, because i always have to so cautious and because i'm unsure of what the results should turn out like.

after the prac i was done and met up with N to give her Gilmore Girls. I'm currently trying to convert all my friends to Gilmore Girls addicts, and for those who haven't watched it yet, you should, it is an amazing show. 
and then N said she had something for me and she pulled out this....

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL POST IT NOTES!!!!!!
needless to say i started squealing. 
i told her "if we weren't in public, i would squeal louder"
THANK YOU N for the present it is so cool, i'm afraid to use it, 
I don't want to ruin the pictures on the sides, so i think i will only use the first couple of notes. 
now i'm off to bed to sleep while cuddling my new HSM thing. 
hehe kidding or am I?

Love Squealer. 

P.S. Notice the strategic background of my photos, yes that is my High School Musical Wall.

let's play a game

i've been feeling so blah the past couple of weeks, i have an inkling it might have something to do with the fact that i started semester 2 of uni. i have no motivation to study and i really should. Every time i try to sit down and study, nothing really goes in and i end up going on the internet, especially tumblr, ok i think i have an addiction. 
i'm also sleeping really late nowadays so its about 1 now and i have to go in 6 hours, not smart. so i'm going to be tired tomorrow and not pay attention again. 
ok so new resolutions: get more sleep, study more, save money.


now because i don't want to sleep, i thought i would let you guys play a game
its called guess the song. i'm going to quote some lyrics and you have to guess which song and singer that it is by.
the songs would be chosen from either Boys Like Girls or Hot Chelle Rae, also if you don't know who they are, you should give their music a listen. 


1. Emotions that swim through my veins, A fever that shows in my face 
2. As wild as an elephant's child
3. Today is a winding road, Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know
4.Your touch tells me where I need to go, My lead will make you wanna get so close
5.My head is ready to explode
6. I want to scream until no sound comes out
7. She turns it up, she said tonight you take me anywhere
8. The way I feel is so surreal and heavy
9. Strangers in this land, You and me
10. The beast waits in the shadows alone, Why stay here when you're not coming home
11. And now I'm itching for the tall grass, And longing for the breeze
12. You're the sugar in my high
13. I feel the freedom as we just left the bright city lights
14. We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
15. This train won't wait for you



Now no cheating and typing it in google, have fun!
Also i'm sorry if any of the lyrics are incorrect, its very late.
Ok I think the only person who would do this M, but i encourage others to try. 
The winner gets more of my love and respect. what a great prize =D

Here are some pretty pretty photos of the aforementioned bands:






















ok that was mainly a Rk and Martin spam 
RK's is M and Martin's mine ;)
Sorry if i didn't credit the images, if you want your images to be credited let me know, they're all from tumblr.

Love Squealer.

shaking me up, turn it up

cardigan: cotton on, shirt: thrifted, pants: thrifted, shoes:Betts, jewelery:target, belt: just jeans, bag: thrifted

it was raining today so i couldn't go outside to take photos for my outfit post. i wish i was better photographer, but i think i'm very slowly getting better, it sucks trying to take outfit photos when you're running back and forth to the camera. i should really invest in a remote control. and since i'm really picky, i take heaps of photos before i think i have enough to work with. this time i took around 100 photos, but i ended up deleting a lot of the photos. 
i am loving these high wasted pants at the moment, they are really easy to wear and go with a lot of things, they are more green in real life. i love trying out different looks, but i try to tone down my experimenting at uni because i dunno, i guess i feel a little self-conscious. i know, who cares about what they think? but i like to think a lot so i'm always thinking that people are looking at me the wrong way. 
i went to highpoint today and this is what i wore (i was actually wearing combat boots), and while i'm on a shopping ban, i did ended up buying something. yes i give you permission to throw rocks at me, i never used to spend so much, so why do i now?? 
well i bought these heeled oxford shoes which i've been looking for, well i wanted flat ones but these heels were too cute and it was the last on in my size and on sale too, if it wasn't on sale i wouldn't have bought. the heels are really comfortable as well even if they are not leather. hopefully i get a good wear out of them, i feel weird wearing heels to uni because a) it makes heaps of noise and b)my feet hurt after a while in heels and oh no heels in pracs. i also got some jewelery from target, i should really stop buying jewelery, i hardly wear most of the ones that i buy, i wish i had Y to come shopping with me, because she always tells me not to buy unnecessary things.
