She's still asleep right now, I ran off for the bus whilst she was eating...watched Transformers2 with Amanda :D it was pretty awesome..."explosions and Megan Fox" pretty much sums it up!

muscley coriander

Shopped at Bridge Rd with Susan today :D Bought absolutely nothing of importance, picked up 2 Body Shop eyeshadows (purple and bluee) for $5 each!! soooooooo cheap, cos they're usually what...$20 each? woooo! Also bought a new top from Camberwell somewhere

Had hotpot at Susan's afterwards + Annette and fam, cos my cousin is going to America in a few days :( Wont see him til I finished year 12, and Annette's also moving in September *CRY*

The spastic kid was making up names for us all night...I was muscley coriander, Susan was slimey beef, and she named herself "ummfierce snake" amoung many other biographies for each of us (apparently Susan drives a raft made from stickytape, I drive a vacuum cleaner, Steven is so pathetic he has to walk everywhere...and the other Sophie drives a ferrari? WHAT IS THIS!)

The other spastic kid (my dad) played Wii golf with the little ones AND WE WATCHED MASTERCHEF :D Poh got poh'ned (HAHA IM SO FUNNY.) and obviously Chris won the whole "lets cook a goat" thing...

Yesterday arvo, went to visit Belle :D She's grown up SOOO much, and actually didn't cry when I held her .__. WHAT IS THIS! BABIES ACTUALLY LIKE ME?

I was induced into a state of shock...then, she looked at me like this

and I melted :)

Drove straight from Belle's to Susan's house for a sleepover with Megan and Jessss just like last time :D Played Big Two with Ben and Andy while we waited for Jess to finish her piano lesson...dinner'd then ate a huge load of onion rings/chocolate covered sultanas/sour tubes/cadbury etc etc whilst watching National Treasure 2 (haha RILEYY ♥) and A Cinderella Story hahaaa. Played the whole "murder, marry, makeout" game with people like Voldemort, George Bush and Pamela Anderson etc etc...slept at around 4am, then woke up 5 hours later...

But for some reason, we were REALLY untired...must've been a deep sleep o.o Jess' air mattress pumping skills OWNED, cause we we TOTALLY didn't wake up lying on floorboards :D

Megan had to scram because she had some birthday party, so on the way home from dropping her at Chaddy, we bought supplies for our baking sessionnn (we be masterchefs!)

Home brand ingredients = AMAZING COOKIES. Except this one had a bit of a problem...

In the oven...GOD THEY SMELT GOOOOD

Susan was obsessed with adding milk, I was obsessed with adding flour

BUT THEY TURNED OUT AMAZING. I guess it evened out, cos the edges were crunchy and the centre was soft.....until they cooled, AND NOW THEY'RE LIKE ROCKS :( we wanted to give some to Jacky 老师 , and last time we baked her the muffins...they came out REALLY LEATHERY HAHA. This time they'll probably break her teeth, but at least they looked appealing :D

~storytime~

OH MY GOD FUNNIEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right, we had FAR too much energy for 10am in the morning, so we decided to go bball at the park (with a kiddy ball). Shortly after, some asian girl/woman came up to us and started to...join in O.O so we said "hmm, how bout we go to soph's house and get a real basketball?" to get rid of her...

When we came back, she had gone, so we shot a few hoops and THEN WE SAW HER SITTING ON THE BENCH WTF! We scrammed.

Went to the park near Susan's house, and these 2 punks on bikes were in the same area...they started following us (the park at Susan's had a basketball backboard with...no hoop HAHA) around and saying "shaaakiraaa! shakiraaaaa!" or something that sounded like that o.o I think they were attempting to be racist, cos we're asian and all LOL. So these boys (who were probably like 14) followed us around for half an hour, Jess decided to run a lap around the oval and she outran them on bikes...weak asses HAHA. The kid that looked like he was 12 plucked a flower and tried to give it to Susan, but he kinda tossed it and I kinda stood on it. THEN they tried to block us off from an alleyway, but we just jumped over the wall

GOD they were stupid HAHA, I ended up saying "hey sus, is your big bro home?" and the kids mysteriously disappeared...

definately gonna make a video about this one...too funny to pass up haha

~

So now I probably weight 600kg from all that food, and on top of that, we're going out to lunch tomorrow in a mountain in woopwoop and it'll be amazing :D

OH WE ALSO MET LAURA'S BOYFRIEND OR WHOEVER HE IS...cute guy, cute accent. hahahaa...BUT SHE MADE ME PLAY PIANO

YES PEOPLE, I TOUCHED THE PIANO AND SO DID SUSAN D: BLASPHEMY!!!

WHY CAN'T I JUST SAY NO TO SOME PEOPLE? GODD, FREAKIN LAURA'S TOO SWEET HAHA

schadenfreude - pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune (I believe this is one of Cheryl's words too...hahah)

RCH RUN FOR THE KIDS :D

Awake at 6am, bright and early! Thanks to daylight savings, it was actually 7am, so it wasn't excruciatingly painful :)

Crowd + portapotties! phwoar...30,000 people this year! and 20,000 of them ran the 14km course D:

The teaaaam! Minus Megan who did the 14km course...champ D:

(L to R - Dad, Lincoln, Susan's dad, Logan/Rebecca's dad and mum, my mum, my piano teacher, Susan's mum, my ex chinese teacher...and Susan + myself)

Green = 5.76km run, white = 5.76km walk

The mother of all hills at 3km (outside MGGS) KILLED me. I think I have asthma or something cos I could. not. breathe!!!

On/Off ran the next 2 km, and SPRINTED the last 760m aahahahah - came in at 53 mins. Susan (the tank) finished at 37 mins, her dad at 39 mins and my dad at 47 mins. We were all around 10 minutes faster last year :( The walkers finished at about 1 hr 12 minutes which was a lot slower than last year as well, but they were walking so all is forgiven haha. Lincoln took his wife's tag, and he was meant to be running therefore he cheated! ahahha

There were 2 guys dressed as Ironman and Superman which was the only interesting costumey thing I saw this year. There were people in robot outfits last year LOL

Had brunch at EQ afterwards - spanish omelette! The mini frying pan was SO cute and the bread was deceivingly crunchy x___x

After going home and showering (SO SWEATY HAHA) I found the energy (yet again) to go shopping in DFO - I NEED A FORMAL/L.MUS DRESS!!!!! I found a REALLY nice one in Garfunkle, but size 8 was just a biiiiiit too small for me to sit down and move around in :( I'M SO UPSET LOL, IT WAS SO APPROPRIATE FOR A PIANO RECITAL! They had size 12 but nooooooo, no size 10s :(

Photo does not do it justice at all...the top part is made out of this sheer stuff that covers the chest, so it's warm enough for winter. AND its really pretty at the back; kinda like a semi-low V shape...

See where my tummy is - YEAH I CAN'T BREATHE. I liked it cos its so different from my usual formal attire...I guess its a typical colour for me to pick but... :(

No luck finding shoes either - my keds are so worn out and they make my feet stink so bad after a day of shopping LOL

EDIT: OH I REMEMBER SOMETHING HILARIOUS!!!!! on the train trip home, there were these 2 kids and their parents - they were writing stuff in a notebook and showing each other...

Dad: *writes "Silly Mum"*

Little boy: *shows mum*

Mum: *writes "Silly Dad"*

Little boy: *shows dad*

*insert cute family laughter here*

Little girl: *writes "Sex in bed"*

Dad: =/ ......too far...

Mum: *furious* that's stupid, rip it out!!!!

xo

i have a life!

Got out of the house, wooo!

Had an AWESOME piano lesson this morning with Stephen McIntyre - he's such a quirky guy and amazing at piano (obviously). Gave me a few little tips here and there...nothing hard to fix, but some pretty drastic changes are gonna happen to my music over the next few months! Pretty excited, and it's probably the first time I've been pumped to practice piano in a while :) Can't wait to practice tonight! (but I'll have to ditch Earth Hour...)

Went to Chadstone afterwards with Amanda and Erika to buy Irene a birthday present :) ERIKA BOUGHT GREEN CONTACTS YESTERDAAYY! They look pretty awesome..

We were gonna make some kinda scrapbook for Irene but we ended up going to Build-a-Bear! LOVE THAT STORE, I WANNA WORK THERE!! We chose a [pretty cute] bear and this [pretty cute] guy stuffed it for us - all the other customers were little kids and the conversation was like this:

Bearstuffer: Hi, what's your name? :D

Little Girl: *shy* Mary

Bearstuffer: Okay Mary, can you go over there for me and take a heart to put in your bear?

Little Girl: *shy* okay...

...and then we come along

Bearstuffer: Hi.....uhh.......wanna grab a heart to put in your bear?

Me: Can we have five hearts?!

Bearstuffer: o.o uuuum...yeah okay

Us: WOO

Bearstuffer: ...this is a present for someone right?

So we bought the bear some overalls and named him Cookies (that name decision literally took 10 minutes - it was a tossup between Butter, Butterscotch, Stitch, Butterstitch, Tommy, Timmy, Bobby, Bing and Bong, Fluffhead etc etc)

Shopped around for fun after that :) I looked into SLR cameras....the Nikon D60 is the one that's in my price range and I WANT IT REALLY BAD haha...the twin lens set is about $1000, but the normal one is $800 which is okay! The extra $200 I guess I can spend on a macro lens instead :D PLUS if gran can get it for me Duty Free...........woohoo! I've saved almost $400 for it so I guess that's my life savings gone :(

Walked past some pretty paintings...

We ended up at the newsagency and bought Irene a card, then sat in Gloria Jeans and started writing in it (TIM TAM DRINK FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg its actually sex in a cup PLUS CHOCOLATE SAUCE)

top class 08

On the way to Top Class, I called Erika 10-20 times and she never picked up - I was panicking because she was meant to be with me and she missed the train and I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO GET TO IWAKI AUDITORIUM LOL

Thank shishkebabs my phone had GPS haha...I found my way there, sat like a loner for ages and attempted to find Biro, but when I got out of my chair, Erika FINALLY rocked up

Top Class is the concert for all the top VCE music performers from 2008, and it was SO cool! It started with a percussionist, which I hadn't really heard as a solo before...then there were violins, classical voices, cellos, saxophones, pianos and finally a harp. There was one singer who sang the FUNNIEST song ever...

"And lovely Lisa, where are you Lisa?

You gave a new meaning to the Leaning Tower of Pisa"

COMPLETE WITH ACTIONS HAHAHAHA! (song is titled Where Is the Life That Late I Led)

I also had my last theory class ever (yayayay...I think) so my money is stocked up for now, and my Saturday evenings are free! The kids were all "byebye table....byebye fish..." at the end of the class, which was cute haha

and now, to tackle the homework!

xo

laa

Firstly - think it's totally unfair that I have double spesh maths on thursdays, and NO SPARE ON THAT DAY D: and that 2 out of my 3 spares this week fall on period 1, on days when I DON'T have maths. WTF kinda homework is one meant to have first thing in the morning??

anyhoo

EEEE after school, Min and Amanda came over for a bit before we went off to our English class...baby Belle was at our place :D :D omfg she's 2 months now and she can smile...sooooooooooooooooo efffffffffffffiiinnnnnnnn cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuteeeeeeee. I can't wait til she can walk and talk!! Or until she's my age. Bet all them boys will be drooling after her, she's already so goddamn beautiful. DAMN YOU HALF-ASIAN BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! haha

xo

BELLE

OHMYGOSH

THE CUTEST THING

Every time mum held her she just dropped right off to sleep

Which is worrying coz it means she won't sleep during her normal bedtime...

When she woke up after we ate...mum picked her up and she did a massive (very loud) poop :D

AND SHE HAS THE CUTEST HANDS AND FEET

Bet you anything she's gonna grow up completely beautiful coz half asians are always beautiful :)

Other than that, I went to Steph's church this morning to watch a Christmas production...I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!

AND BABIES!!
