mosquitoes must DIE

I hate them. Grararara.
On Thursday, I was petting the neighborhood cat (name's Jazz, and is so cute and fat, and I love cats now haha). And then, lo and behold, a mosquito bit my pinky finger. Within ten minutes, my finger had swollen up quite badly, but I figured it'd go away.

It's Saturday now, and it's swelling really badly. My pinky finger's width is now bigger than my THUMB. My freaking THUMB.

And the spot where the mosquito bit me keeps producing this weird, yellow pus-juice thing. I have to keep wiping it off with a tissue. It's on my left hand, too, so writing is now really hard. And I have to do my homework. Lousy mosquitoes, trying to make me fail my exams. Seriously, if I write, I'll have to bend my pinky, which makes the juice squirt out more and my finger swell more. I don't know what to do. :(

You know the loose skin around the middle of the finger? The part where the finger bends? Yeah, for my pinky, that spot is all swollen up completely, and fat looking. It's like having an obese finger.

On a happier note, DBSK/Tohoshinki is totally brightening my life up. OH JAEJOONG/YUNHO, MARRY ME! And of course, Teppei. ^_^

oh, i wuv youuuu anberlin!

OH YES HOT STUFF ANBERLIN! Akakaka!

Their fourth studio album currently slated for an August release.

OH YES! I am pumped! I need more awesome songs to fuel my playlist! The album will be "guitar-heavy", but I really hope they put in one or two happy-poppy songs like Autobahn or Downtown Song. ^_^

And there'll be "diverse instruments"...like the sitar. Whoa, the sitar. Awesomesauce. And they also want one of their tracks to be playable on Rock Band. WHOOAAAAAAAA!

This is their first album with their new record company, by the way. It's a 'major label' : Universal Republic Records. Now, pretend that you know what that is. Because I know that I don't. =/

But regardless: Anberlin will rock. Oh, right, and because I know most of you won't care to read the wiki article, I'll just copy-pasta a quote regarding the album title, New Surrender:

We will all come to the point in our life where we have to admit that we feel
defeated, that something has conquered us. We must change, not because we want
to, but because we desperately have to. We can not take life in its current
suffocating state, even to admit such desperation shows that we are feeling
deserted, wandering the barren desert, a shell of our former selves. It is only
up from here, it is impossible to sink any lower into ourselves or our
circumstances. But we can be salvaged, a deliverance. No vice can stand, no fix
can take. The thorn in the side can be removed, but you have to be willing to
admit and surrender. Surrender your habits, your lifestyle, your past, your
present, and your future. This is your new surrender. The new surrender.

Why, yes sir, Mr. Christian, ye are a poet sir! Yar!

August, come quickly!!

By the way, I think this is a record for me. How many updates already? Normally I only update twice a month. Wakaka. I think I'm just procrastinating studying. Lol. D=

I am a sad panda. And also, a banana.

I feel a lot of regret over not doing more when I was younger.

I think that the reason why I feel that I don't have a lot of free time now is because there's so much I want to do. I want to play the piano, I want to learn the guitar, I want to develop my musical ability, I want to learn Mandarin, I want to learn Japanese, and I want to write like a frenzied artist.

When I was younger, I should've taken advantage of my free time to further my piano and Mandarin studies. But nooooo, I had to not be interested in them back then.

I don't "regret" any of my decisions. They make sense to me still. I stopped piano and Mandarin because I didn't like it. I don't learn anything if I don't like it, really. But I just wish that...I had wanted to learn it back then. If I was interested back then, I know I could've achieved so much.

And so now, I have to cram in writing, learning languages, and learning instruments into any time I have that isn't dedicated to studying.

I think I do sound quite silly lah. But I really want to be awesome at all these things. I want to be a polyglot (can speak a lot of languages lah), an awesomesauce writer, and a OMGWOWOWOWOW musician. And I know that if I keep working at these things, I can and will one day be all those things. But with what little time I have to practice these things, that 'one day' is very far away.

I haven't practiced guitar in weeks. WEEKS! When I finally practice again, my fingers are going to hurt like heck.

What I regret: not having good time-management skills. Oh time, where are thou?

I'm going to make my kids watch Nodame Cantabile so that they'll want to learn an instrument and Japanese, and make them listen to awesome (not ulu opera songs) Chinese songs so that they'll want to learn that.

Oh, and I wish I had taken up violin. I was actually suppose to study violin! I remember going to the music store with my family and looking at a selection of small, cute violins meant for a small girl like me! But...I don't remember why I didn't study it. O_o. I went with piano after that.

And you know what that means? IT MEANS THAT I CAN'T JOIN AN ORCHESTRA! Darn it all, how am I supposed to meet hot musicians and have awesome romantic dramas with them? I LOST MY CHANCE AT A REAL-LIFE J-DRAMA! *cries*

Oh, and I want to do Vonn's awesome photo tag thing. But I'm quite lazy! I also don't have a lot of photos. D= I'll get around to it though. Meanwhile, KEEP TAGGING ME PEOPLE! WITH NON-TIMECONSUMING PHOTO TAGS! JUST WORDREPLY TAGS PLS!

Summary = I'm a sad black-and-white banana.

I fell asleep in class today. I woke up riiiiight before my teacher went, "Are you sleeping, Roanne?" To which I quickly replied, "Huh, oh, no, of course not!"

I'm such a good student, hor?

I have a maths test tomorrow. Pray for me plskthxbai. Oh, and also an IT excursion! We're going to the city...TO A GAMES EXHIBITION! OMG OMG OMG, PSYCH!!!!!!! I love IT. Wakakaka. Exhibition is about gaming, history of games and whatnot. I AM HYPED!!!!!

But then...MATHS TEST.

But then! GAMES!

But then...MATHS TEST!

But then...GAMES!!!

I'm contemplating taking up piano lessons again, at my school. I want to not suck at it. ~_~

BTW, Vonn, START FACEBOOK-WALLING!!!! ~_~_~_~_~_~ I WANT EPIC POSTS, DARN YOUUUU!!! And papayas do not suck. Squeeze lemons over them and they rock. AND they make your boobs grow (according to some Chinese tradition, lol). Thus, they are vital to me. :( I hate being an airport. ~_~

Back to music-topic: I wish I was more musically attuned. D= Like, perfect pitch, sense of rhythm, blah blah blah. I have the worst hand-eye coordination too. And heck, left hand-right hand coordination.

....mangosteens, where art thou? D= Currently, my fantasy is hugging Teppei Koike who's holding a bowl full of mangosteens and rambutans.

Anyway, back to maths. Anyone want to help me? PRAY FOR ME :D!

From condoms to fruits

Dear Australian supermarkets,

Please stop overpricing your papayas outrageously. RM20 for a small, unripe little green ball is ridiculous. Also, please stock rambutans and mangosteens for reasonable prices. Also, I would like to request tasty mango, not those pathetic unripe abominations that sit under the white paper sign labelling them as "Mangos". Those are not mangos. Those are sins. Please purchase a ticket to Malaysia, and proceed to buy and taste the mangos there. Those are mangos. Those are divinity incarnated as a fruit.

Also, in case I lost you in my first sentence, what I call a 'papaya' is what you call 'pawpaws'. Don't ask me why I use a clearly superior title for these heavenly fruits. Rather, ask yourselves why you insist on using such a stupid name for such respectable fruits.

Thank you for your time. I hope you will take into consideration everything I've written and come to the conclusion that I am right and you are wrong. Good day.

Yours truly,
A very cranky, fruit-starved Malaysian.

Oh, Korowa youuuuu, lolol

My school gave me a condom. WAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!

They sprung a sex education thinggy on us under the guise of the title "Decision Making". They also showed us a video, and there was this short segment where there was a model of a guy's ding-a-ling-ling and taught us how to put on a condom.

I have no idea why they're teaching an all-girls' school how to put on a condom. But hey, lol!

Oh, and throughout the whole thing, I was covering my face with a white scarf (borrowed from Gloria dahling) because I was giggling and tittering. SO MATURE, AMIRITE? wakakaka. I think I'll eternally be laughing whenever someone mentions sex to me. WAKAKAKAKA!

The condom was made in Malaysia, btw. I had no idea that Malaysia even produced condoms. I don't know why.

I think my mom threw it away already, hahahah.

Oh, and stress. BUT I SHALL PERSEVERE! FOR TEPPEI KOIKE! AND WYAAAAATT! <3<3
