A few interesting thoughts:

1. Whenever I log into yahoomail, there’s this little man with glasses and purple pants that breakdances non-stop until the page loads. It must be tiring.

2. Strange. If anyone had butter fingers, then i have butter feet. Do you know how many times i have fallen or nearly fallen in the past 2 months?!? I even slipped on a piece of ham in Countdown! *ouch* and i have the bruise to prove it. Well, maybe not anymore..

A few interesting facts:

1. I have managed to use up 1986 of the 2000 texts on TXT2000. And i thought that 2000 txts were a few hundred texts too many... guess i thought wrong. >.<

2. I am practising somersaults in the pool now! And the total volume of water going up my nose from one swim session is getting less and less. (Water only went up my nose 3 times this morning =))

3. Not so interesting.. i'm hungry =(

My parents and Daniel are arriving tomorrow *grins*

Update

Ok, it's about time i updated my blog.

Chia is sitting next to me in Burns and when i saw my blog page load on her screen, i said to her "Dont bother looking. I havent updated it. If you want, you can have a look 15 minutes from now." Heh..

To date, i made 2 important passes:

1. My exams!!!!!!!!!!!!
=D X infinity (Can you see that i'm starting to build strong face muscles from grinning? Ok, i will replace 'face muscles' with the appropriate terminology once i've asked the Dent ppl)

2. Road code for driving test.
I started studying the night before. Josh said i could memorise the answers and quoting Chia "It's common sense." But with the little that i remember for Road Law theory (that was 4 years ago) and the lack of practice (4 times in 4 years... what's with the number 4??), i thought it would have been good for me to have studied through the book anyway. And so i did. I wanted to get in first thing in the morning when AA opened at 8.30am to book my practical asap. That way i can be sure to be prepared with a full driver's licence before i start work in January, which is a requirement. =S I started at 9.30pm, fell asleep by 10.45pm (it was supposed to be a "nap"). Woke up at 7am with the intention to study. Didnt happen. Back to sleep until 8am. Woke up with a jolt and decided i needed to start revising. In the next 2 hours, i ate chocolate to stay awake and took a total of 3 10-15 minute naps. And after a long queue at the AA, i passed with one mistake. =) Now i'm booked in for the 14th December at 10.15am for my practical exam. So they say practise makes perfect aye?? ;) Oh yes, downside of this, gotta see the optometrist on Wednesday. *ka-ching!*

I'm tired.

Dad, Mum and Daniel are arriving tomorrow in Chch at noon, and will be driving down on Thursday. Ok, i should go to Video Ezy now and borrow Cars so that we can watch it when Neil's down. Ooo...i cant wait to see how he's sprouted vertically.

Ok, i'm really feeling quite tired now. I think it's because i'm not used to sitting in front of a computer for more than 30 minutes, not since my exams anyway. Dups..

My cold is getting better. Now coughing up yucky stuff and blowing my nose every 3 minutes. I feel like a phelgm-making machine...honest! I do! I'm on my second box of tissues and at the rate that i'm going, i'll be on my third one in no time.

I like Justin's blog. It makes me laugh... *random me* =P

Alcohol and I dont mix well

Albert Arms - P4 Class Dinner

Archers Lime. Yum but left me pretty woozy. I remember most about what happened that night. But my flatmates, Josh and Jian were pretty amused by some of the things i said. Unfortunately, that part's a bit blur to me. =P Best sleep ever tho!

It feels crap to be ill. I am not sure where I caught it from, but it started last Thursday night. First, it was the slight cold and the next thing I knew, I woke up the next morning with a full-blown flu. Headache, sore throat, blocked nose and all. It felt horrible!! I cant remember the last time that I was this ill. So for the first time in my life, I popped in pain-killers on a regular basis. First it was Codalgin, and then I decided to start with paracetamol without the codeine. So when I detoured to the supermarket, I picked up a packet of fast-acting Panadol. It helped mildly, so I went to the pharmacy and picked up Codral night and day.

I took a one hour nap this afternoon (all the naps seem to merge into each other because I’ve been taking so many >.<) and i slipped into dream mode soon after nodding off. I was in someplace that looked like Alaska. There was snow everywhere! And i was standing, looking at the view in front of me, everything was white, a vast land in front of me and a serene lake that was frozen over. I remember standing there, astonished at the scenery. A white polar bear was walking towards me from afar, and it was calling my name. And so i walked towards it. Hehe...like a scene from Brother Bear. The closer the polar bear walked towards me, the more familiar its voice sounded. It sounded... it sounded... a lot like... Kevin?? o.O I was awoken from my dream by him calling my name as he came up the stairs. I laughed to myself at how my dream and reality had collided.

I do feel much better now. I'm trying not to pass my germs around. Having my sister over for the holidays is such a joy. Poking fun at each other and laughing over the special features of 13 Going On 30. Sleeping a lot and having a lot of things in my room to tidy and rearrange. I'm doing this bit by bit =P
