still sore, but not in the feet :(

i lie, my feet are still sore

my legs feel like bricks and my feet are battered up from iceskating today :) which was worth it, havent been in ages. mike and mark didn't end up coming, so fred pimped it with sam, viv, erika, min and me :D we had fun though, nothing especially interesting happened - meaning no one fell over or crashed, but i think min kinda tripped a kid.

the thing thats pissing me off right now are my damn braces/teeth...had to see the orthodontist today and i have a ridiculous elastic that goes diagonally across my front teeth. yes, right at the front of my mouth =__= i only have to wear it at night though, thank the good lord. and they also did something to my bottom teeth that scared me shitless O__O it sounded like they were grinding it down or something...sif they're not small enough already. 

oh noo school starts in exactly a week *dies*

sore feet :(

woke up AND got up at 6am...pretty much the earliest i've ever woken up for the entire year and beyond :P i had a charity run on at 9 ("run for the kids", proceeds going to the royal childrens hospital), i think it was something like a 5.76km run/walk but there was the 15km one as well for the hardcore people :)

i was registered for the walk section, with megan + 10 more people (family, piano teacher and parents of students who learn from piano teacher LOL)...me, megan, dad and 2 others ran even though we were meant to walk, and it was surprisingly easy :D after 2km's i was still functioning normal, but i stopped cause my ankles have issues when i run on concrete. plus i had a stitch in 3 places ahahha. i think i have some kinda mild asthma, or maybe its just not good for me to stop running once i've started. i walked another 2kms (also cause it started to go uphill haha) and ran to the end, to make it look like i was so awesome and ran the entire way ;)

we had brunch and coffee afterwards, went home and......went back to the city with mum and gran to go shopping LOL. im on a desperate hunt for trackies that are NOT fluoro. or have hugeass writing on them. who the hell thought fluoro pants were fashionable?! i practically glow if i wore them

so yeah, i actually spent 4 hours at dfo and mc looking for trackies, only to realise that dobsons should have them =____= going iceskating tomorrow, if my feet can handle it

science vs religion

2nd post, i know but this was on my mind so i thought i'd share :)

on the train ride from chadstone to melb central, we started talking about the whole "science vs religion" thing...how much of our lives can be proven with science and how much of our lives just can't be explained

think about this one - everyone thinks and everyone has thoughts right? but how exactly can you know its there? you can dissect your brain up and say which parts of you brain think what kinds of thoughts, you can scientifically analyse all the electrochemical blahblahs....but there is no way you can know exactly what is going through another person's mind. i can look at you and say that i know you're thinking....but HOW do i know that?!

its exactly the same as this (if you choose to believe it anyway) - there's a God out there somewhere, but how do we know that? to put it simply, we don't. those who have faith that there's a God out there will believe it, the same way as we have faith that we all have thoughts, even though it can't really be proven

also goes with the big bang theory - do you believe that there was once a universe that...err, sucked up into a black whole and exploded and ended up with such perfect density that a new universe was created? that thought scared the shits outta me...it sounds complex but imagine it this way - there used to be another universe, human mankind screwed it up so badly and it exploded, and we got the chance to start over again...though at this rate, we're gonna screw it up again and the universe will explode and the cycle begins again

ok, im starting to go round in circles and jot down things that only seem to make sense to me...but remember this - darkness is the absence of light, cold is the absence of heat and evil is the absence of God. i'm not religious, i'd call myself agnostic because there's just too much out there that can't be explained.

EARTH HOUR

turn out your lights NOW!

decided to go to chaddy with erika to go see "the eye"....called up min 10 minutes before my train left to get her to come to, and because of her we nearly missed the movie :) i swear to god i'm never going to chaddy by public transport again...its my nearest shopping centre if i get driven, but it takes 2 train lines and a bus (sometimes a tram) to get there otherwise =__=

the movie was great though, i love *horror* movies. it wasn't so scary, but min kept freaking out next to me, which scared me more than whatever was happening in the movie :P 

after that we went back to mc (we love it) and i'm not sure how, but fred ended up with us as well, and we played pool (again)...the coin slot was stuck, which was AWESOME cause it meant unlimited games :D somehow along the way we lost one of the balls, and somehow along the way we found it again :) one thing i don't understand is how fred can plan his shots so well....the things he can do are the things i fluke (i fluked some pretty good ones though hahaha)

aanyway, then we bought a giant teddy for irene's birthday and i'm yet to get viv something (SORRY!! cant find material anywhere to make you a cake :()

COLD AS HELL

no pun intended

BUT SERIOUSLY

i'm wearing 2 pairs of socks and i NEVER wear socks

i'm a cool kid

okay.

so it occured to me that my blog is becoming more than just an outlet for my thoughts, and that people do visit my page and read what i've written. so yes, i know i'm getting hits (scroll down to the bottom and theres a number :P i'm watching youu)

therefore, the things that i write will definately make no sense whatsoever to anyone but myself and people who know me in person

so i think its introduction time :)

you probably gathered my name is sophie :) the people i talk about in my blogs are most likely to be my mates from school (and friends of friends haha), or my closest friends out of school. 

school people - we generally hangout in mc (melbourne central), which i suppose is a shopping centre/train station, but we seem go there to do everything BUT shop haha. barcode = ...games arcade? no thats not right...theres a bowling alley and pool tables, and i think its a bar at night time :) but yes, we go there for the pool tables hahahaha. chinatown's another place we sometimes end up at, cause we're all asian haha (i don't fit in too well there, it smells funny.)

if im not going on about what we get up to in our spare time, i'm probably complaining about school or homework. self-explainitory, im asian ok?! haha. school is generally ok, i suffer at maths and thats the only thing that worries me. music is another one i seem to spend a lot of time on, reason being that i'm doing my licentiate exam next year and vce 1/2 this year...might write about that some other time when its eating my brain

speaking of music, i need to go practice..i have a lesson later hahhaa

holidays 1/4 over :(

this is nuts, its already been...5 days of the term 1 holidays =/ i feel like i've done absolutely nothing, with the exception of getting addicted to grey's anatomy, and today :)

today was fun though, the usual bunch of people went to the usual place and did the usual thing :) ie, pool and movies at mc hahaha

funniest thing ever, on the escalator up to the toilets (mins contacts were stabbing her eyes, silly girl somehow got mascara on the inside of them O_O) out conversation went like this:

min: hey that guy in the checkered shirt has hot hair
*guy turns around*
me: yeah, but not the face.

i bet he heard us, cause min was hellaaaaa embarrassed :P and on the way up to barcode, min goes "shit, i bet he's playing pool on the table next to erika's"

and whaddaya knowww, hes right there hahahaha

we watched drillbert taylor (funnyy :D) and went back to barcode agaaain, and outside were a bunch of guys breakdancing (or trying to) and min was standing there staring...after a few minutes we realised it was the checkered shirt guy again HAHAHHA i bet he was completely creeped out by then :P

aanyways, i better do something productive with the rest of my holidays...i know its gonna fly past, and i havent even touched my homework. though i've been getting 2 hours of piano-ing a day...it better pay off by the time vce/lmus rolls round, or i'll dig myself a hole and cry myself to death

holidays day one

parents have gone out to rye to paint our new beach house, leaving me stranded at home with gran...which is fine, but boring. cooking 2 minute noodles for myself almost proved to be a disaster...do you have a problem with me pouring too much water?? obviously the bowl did.

so now i dug out some paints and pencils and opted for being tidy...so im just drawing around with pencils cause i figured i'd make a mess if my paints were involved. either way i seemed to have made a mess...theres pencil lead and shavings everywhere hahaha

hope the holidays will be entertaining in some way...but considering the folks are gonna be painting for the next 3 days, it looks like i'll be stuck right here for the next 3 days too.

bring on tuesday!!

crazy hair day pt. 2

5 minutes of teasing at school (thanks shelby) + a lot of hairspray = success. though it took an hour to untangle, and a lot of conditioner to get my hair kinda close to normal. 

thanks amanda for the photo :D though cameraphone quality always sucks and i look yellow :P

damn the flat asian hair-unable-to-hold-anythingness. poofed out the sides and the back, but wtf is up with the top? i look like an asian sweeney todd without the white

crazy hair day pt. 1

stay tuned for tomorrow.
