here we start again..
4/2/07
went with vanessa to the city - of course to kino first - me didn't get anything though, even though i saw so many nodame related magazines!!! but not the yamaha one : (
had lunch at ichiban boshi, i had the usual chashu-men and vanessa had the butter corn one....and she ate soo slowly!! eating the corn kernells floating on the soup one by one with chopsticks (sorry vanessa if ur reading this, i type out of affection for u hahahaha XD) and ichiban boshi now sells colourful chopsticks for $3 which includes a plastic case for it - another attempt at being eco-friendly -
then to chinatown to find nodame, the dixon street shop had it, but no english subtitles :"(
capitol to see gashaphon as always, and wasted $3 trying to get a really cute dorami toy from the scam-ful (real word?) machine, i got it every time, but when it lifted to its maximum, the hand bit would open slightly, so the doll would fall again!
wandered around MYER til picked up, then to cc monic's (we stayed in her room with all the comics) and i was bored so i read vanessa's mag, and i saw this ad for a movie with matsumoto jun!! (the guy from hana yori dango drama) but since i can't read the kanji, i just looked at the pictures, but wen i got home and typed it in google, the drama was actually called "boku wa imouto ni koi wo suru" which means "i'm in love with my sister"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! gyahhhh!!! and it's about these twins brother/sister, and from the reviews that i read, even though it has a 'sickly' storyline, it's actually very touching, and you really do feel sorry for the brother (is that wrong though..?)
5/2/07
started school with a free period - which i could've came late in if only i was in yr 12 - but it was replaced with a yr 11 meeting where the teachers talked about wearing ' appropriate attire' to the swimming carnival and about the procedure to leave early - we had to sign our names on the roll class list - and for some reason, she said that the year before us couldn't understand what to do even until the last day, and that they'd all rush trying to sign it and ended up ripping bits of the paper so that by the time they finished, there would be pieces of the paper floating around the school... o_o...
our maths book this year is really plain/boring compared to last year.. it's all black and white and there's no 'fun' things like "fun spots" - which you had to do to find an answer to a really lame joke that made everyone go "oooooh... HA.HA." but yea... last year's book had these little cartoon things who'd say stuff in speech bubbles to explain the formulas or other things, but it was in full colour!! and had a cd, so we didn't have to carry the heavy books wen we hv hw..
cc monic stayed over today, cos some creepy stuff (pretty common though) happened to her at her house, and she wants to get this 'blessed' piece of wooden bracelet that broke and so cc oni was making into another type of bracelet. watched 'the biggest loser' and after realising that a singles packet of low fat ham only had 30kj, decided to someday have that for lunch. (but i don't think it will work for me, cos mama puts like 3 layers in with mayonnaise..) but later - as in today - it improved to around 2 layers with no mayonnaise.
6/2/07
in french, ms tita was speaking closely to me wen trying to mark my work, and i could sorta smell her breath...
forgot my recess, so ended up staring at the little cute swallows on the telephone line (i haven't seen a pigeon so far!)
in maths, had a quiz, and could've got an extra mark, but the teacher went over to mine and marked it before i finished checking : (
went home early today, so signed the roll list stuck on the hall window (it was supposed to be on the balcony windows infront of our roll classes, but then the teacher realised that we could fall out and die).
at home, i checked the mail box and we got sent a small pack of purina cat food from flybuys!!! hehehehhee purina is expensive stuff so i was happy :D
ended up being really bored at home and had to force myself to find stuff on the internet to entertain me, and then i watched swing girls on youtube! it was really good at certain bits, but not good enough as a whole to get on dvd, good thing koki didn't find it in indo. but there's a really funny scene where they're listening to the pedestrian song and one of them said that it could be 'swing' so they end up clapping to it in 'swing' style after realising that it is. click on the link, it's really funny but strange..!
finally got the first page of the nodame mozart duet and also printed out nakashima mika's sakurairo maukoro on piano.
7/2/07
stupid thing happened first period. was late to maths class cos we didn't know there was a room change so when we arrived at the class (which was the biggest in the school) we slipped in silently and sat at the seat at the very back of the room, and after the teacher gave us our work, he started to draw this graph with coordinates and triangles, and after struggling for ten minutes trying to see his miniscule writing on the whiteboard which doesn't make any sense to us, i started looking around the room, cos it was kinda weird that no one was asking questions even though the stuff on the board got nothing to do with wat we were doing. so i asked juliet sitting a few rows infront of me, and when i asked if we had to copy it, she said "no!", it was actually stuff for the two year 12 people from the extension 2 course who were sitting on the very first row!!!! omg!!! we were like frustrating ourselves trying to figure out why the it said things like "z-2i" on the board!!! omggggg felt so stupiddd..
had religion, and an was actually in my class! so sat next to her. chem - bore; bio - bore too..
lunch - went to the 'social justice club' meeting in that same big room from earlier, it was so crowded! and as the teacher said, i won't have to do the big/out in the field contributions like going out at night to serve food to homeless, i'll just contribute by "folding papers". this club basically organises things like fundraisers for caritas/third-world countries and also the 'make poverty history' thing last year.

from 1st - 3rd feb.
trying to quickly get up-to-date with this blog... so:
1/2/07
late on the first day of classes!! but the paper where we had to sign in if we're late was missing for yr 11 so i got off : D and since i was late, got the bottom locker again : ( but the people around me aren't the ignorant type so i can still get to my locker.
for english, i had ms. kennedy - the teacher everyone calls the 'lavender woman' cos she smells like it, and it's not like the sickly lavender like the one in my house, it's more tolerable... but still, it's really strong so when she gives out sheets infront of you, you can really smell it. she's REALLY into grammar like aunt josephine on a series of unfortunate events (lemony snicket) and sorta looks like her in the movie too! (thin, boofy hair, glasses) and even when we're reading something from a sheet, she tells us to correct every grammatical mistake like forgetting to put a capital letter, or mispelling one letter in a word.. and wen we read a report, she critiques it in so much detail...
way opposite to my english teacher last year who talks about funny/random historical facts/stories or for some reason, his own personal life... and so we end up rushing to learn the important stuff like a few days before the exam. hahaha but because of him i actually liked english.
in french, juliet went into our class - she was supposed to hv study period, but the library was closed - and the teacher told us to 'invest' in the 5kg french dictionary that's as thick as two bricks piled on top of each other.
2/2/07
had opening mass at the OLSH church where the year 12s from last year get presented their trophies for getting UAIs above 90, and we also find out who was dux (indo girl btw). anyways... usually we start with the usual prayer and songs, but this year since the girl from my year who usually sings and is very good at it, is away, they got three year 12 people to sing this usually very nice hymn and omg it was sooo out of tune!! (except for the last singer who could actually sing and had a vibrato).
religion had mr. zillich and he keeps on saying "in what way" whenever someone gives an answer... like 'what's the meaning of life?' "to follow God" 'in what way?' "like the bible" 'in what way?'
haha ok lah not after every answer, but it's funny (to me anyways) when he does say it. religion class is more like philosophy.
oh btw, jill the indo girl knows cc septilia! not close, but still.. : )
3/2/07
had piano, my exam's gonna be around may, so have to start cramming stuff now. i gave liz my nodame soundtrack cos it's got really good classical music on it. i'll post some on my multiply to promote the actual goodness and not geekiness of classical music!
cleaned gps - koshi still itchy - and after, watched 'she's the man' again it still cracks me up!! so funny!!
(next day to be continued in the next post cos this is getting really long)

still not up to today yet...
29/1/07
read Dracula for most of the day, and because i've been sitting on the couch for so many hours, when i got up, my vision went all blury and den i told mama and she said, "kurang darah artinya" which means "not enough blood it means.." *i show her what book i'm reading* o_O"
30/1/07
started school today : ( from 8:30 - 12 noon.
there was quite a few new girls, and one was an indo girl from s'pore! her name is jillian, got dyed hair and speaks indo fluently too : D (later when i looked at her timetable, reminded me of all indo people from singapore: business subjects lol)
and guess who i ended up having as a roll call teacher... the stupid teacher who can't spell!!! noooooo!!
also had first peer-support session today, and i got amy r. as a partner, so basically she's gonna be doing all the work for me.. dunno if it's a good thing or not, but o well.. our group was pretty quite, we had some awkward silences...-__-....
went home and went on the internet, and saw this nodame cantabile guide to the drama magazine published by yamaha!!! i want!!!! but it was out on november last year, and people who are selling it does not ship outside of japan :"(
the inside's basically filled with stuff like the character book, but with pictures of the actual drama cast, and it's got more things about the momogaoka music academy, composers, the musicians behind the drama, and it's even got music scores of some of the songs featured in the drama!!!! i want~!
and i also saw the official bag that nodame uses!!
oya. fed whiskas singles to biscotti, and realised that i actually bought the wrong one. i got 'senior' (8 yrs+)
31/1/07
had to come to school today because of peer-support... from 8:35 - 10 and as usual, amy took over again, even though i don't mind, it feels a bit weird cos imagine if by the end of the 10 sessions or so, they dunno who i am... (but the next day, steffi told me how one of the girls (jane) in my group asked steffi's friend - which she also knew - where 'ancella' was, because she was lost.... because i think our group finished way earlier than the others and had nothing else to do, so the teacher said i could go home... and that means that she remembered my name!! aww how pathetic of me...)
anyways~ went home after detour-ing to coles and sunli with mama and tnt linda..
watched ice age 2 on the dvd from indo, and it was sooo funny!! especially the bit where the sloth guy gets kidnapped by other mini sloths who follow whatever he does because they think he's the fire god that's causing the ice to melt. (i'm really bad at explaining stuff in a simpler way - except for the time i typed a summary of the dracula novel for my friend)
then did bit of piano h/w; cleaned gp cages and after seeing how curly their nails were, i clipped all their nails. Chinta as usual wasn't scared of me, so after she got bored of me holding her still by the stomach (holding like a doll) she starts to get irritated and nipped my hand... ponta as usual is very still, so it was pretty easy to cut his nails (now it's really easy to pick him up, usually he runs away like crazy) but he stinks, so that wasn't good. last was koshi.. it was really sad to hold him, cos he still has the skin problem (now worse) so he'll squeak cos it hurts wen i touch it.. i ended up giving him a bath with the medicated shampoo... poor him he was shivering so much and moving weirdly after it was all done... but at least he still ate.. (he's so thin now)
at night, watched hana yori dango episode 4!!
btw, tnt linda was saying how wen i was at indo and there was no one at home to play with biscotti, she'll go and visit tnt linda's house and just walk around! it's funny how biscotti knows that that house is our friend's place... hahahaa hmm...

sunday 28/1/07
for some reason, this day made me really happy, probably cos i haven't been anywhere since indo..
started the day with a TINY plate of bread/egg/bacon which mama cooked, so by the time we picked up cc monic and went to the city, i was already hungry again as usual..
oh, i know why i was so happy... i got BOOKS!! hehehehe *easy to please*
first went to kino and got the nodame character book!!
which was way better than i expected!! if you reverse the cover (which i realised the next day) there's a poster of milch which you can photocopy 400% to make it into a height measuring thing. and i'll tell you wat's inside:
list of characters (a lot!! more than a hundred)
pictures of nodame's dresses that her mum made
nodame's room before chiaki cleaned it - with a diagram pointing out all the weird/gross things
diagram of who plays what in the orchestra
orchestral instruments and info about them
list of classical pieces from the manga
timeline of classical composers
interview with tomoko ninomiya (the author)
uraken menu (mine's dad's chinese restaurant which also serves club sandwich and coffee)
chiaki's recipe
character poll (amazingly mine's dad was #3!)
map of paris and places they went to in the comic - some in colour
mini comics - one in full colour
puri gorota special
french lesson - including weird ones which nodame learnt like "call the police!" and "i'm a victim of domestic rape" which she recited while in a resturant with chiaki
nodame and chiaki's one day
character rough sketches
full colour illustration gallery
and if you take off the cover, it has a pattern of nodame's mongoose outfit and puri gorota on the book.
so good ne! hehe recommend people to go and buy it! won't be disappointed.
also got the february issue of CREA which is a celeb dog issue, so it's got like accesories (expensive ones that is) for dogs, make overs, cute pictures of dogs, celebrities and their dogs - including the guy from hana yori dango - and i realised that the last dog issue of crea i got was from last year's february issue too...
den had lunch at a cafe in the strand. i had this smoked salmon penne thing with a really smelly cheese (cc monic said that smelly means real. unlike kraft.) that was yum, but the drink was the best! it was a frappe which had in it two scoops of ice cream, espresso and vanilla!! yumo~!!!
while the others were in sportsgirl, went to borders next door and got count of monte cristo!!!! finally... but the book was so thick o_O it'll take me like half a year probably to finish reading it...
yep, the thickness is the same as the length of my finger.
after in a super happy mood, continued to MYER and looked at KIT: and cc oni ended up getting this peachy/salmon (sorta fluoro looking after a while) nail polish and minty lip balm/gloss.
went back to cc monic's and then ate at wok station the thai restaurant in pyrmont which we always pass and has this picture of a shirtless guy on its front wall..
we went in... looking at the fun interior, wall with squares of mirrors, unstable looking plastic chairs, funky pink chopsticks... and den got to the weird/funny stuff: the menu and the writing and the wall..
if you've read cc oni's blog, u probably know wat i'm talking about, but for those who haven't, i'll type them here:
tom yum goong - thai food without this dish is like Sydney without the Opera House.
emerald fried rice - if you are sick of Chinese fried rice, must try this (special fried rice with green chilli paste).
kaa-naa - selected wonderful Chinese broc with thai assuring tasty, ordered by OZ.
pad-pak (mix-veg) - boring dishes but very tasty but famously easy to cook but not easy to make nice.
a bit strange ei, but the food tasted nice! especially the 'binary chicken' which is chicken cooked in two steps.. probably i'm the only one who really liked it cos i like super sweet stuff, but to me the sweetness is just right (sweetness of coconut milk).
and on the wall, it says:
no bullshitting no gossiping no backstabbing no smoking area
wat de.
anyways, then went home after and cleaned the gp's. and watched more 'so you think you can dance' (SYTYCD).

ok back to blogging..
hehe been a while ne!
let's see....
on 26/1/07: woke up at 12:30 and watched "so you think you can dance" that cc oni recorded while i was at indo, then cie monic came and brought with her stuff from singapore :D. i got this 'moisture absorber' thing in the shape of a radish, so if it's too 'moist' from the humid air around, it'll turn into a pink colour, and you'll have to dry it in the sun until it returns to its original colour.. it's so weird but cute
also got mini highlighters in this jar and cute origami paper.
den went to eastgardens - coles and cc oni got a new phone!!! i want too :"( and it was only $100 for an ericson flip phone with colour and pretty good camera with mms and blue tooth *cries*
after that, decided to get dvds, so got "john tucker must die" not as funny as ppl say; "lake house" waay better than the super slow korean version; and "human trafficking" for cc oni and mama to watch...
at night, watched death note 'til episode 15 (it's so good!! i'll post a review of this later) and after, watched recorded survivor until 3am.. cc oni recorded every episode except for the double length last one... :@
den: guling guling until 5am.
27/1/07
watched hana yori dango season 2 episodes 1-2 and den showered at 6pm heheheh. i'll post a review of this drama too. it's soooooooo funny!! way better than the slow taiwanese version which i also watched.
spent the rest of the day watching recorded stuff on videos.
btw. i've given up on the daily garfield thing
let's see....

at night, watched death note 'til episode 15 (it's so good!! i'll post a review of this later) and after, watched recorded survivor until 3am.. cc oni recorded every episode except for the double length last one... :@
den: guling guling until 5am.
27/1/07
watched hana yori dango season 2 episodes 1-2 and den showered at 6pm heheheh. i'll post a review of this drama too. it's soooooooo funny!! way better than the slow taiwanese version which i also watched.
spent the rest of the day watching recorded stuff on videos.
btw. i've given up on the daily garfield thing

i'm back!
yooho people~
i'm back since yesterday............
i'll blog about my trip, but since don't have the photos yet, i'll just start with the plane trip back and wat i've done since i've been here.
so plane trip from indo started with a very weird/creepy tv show on national geographic that we (mama, me, mel, julie) watched in the indo airport waiting room about exorcism... ya sounds scary rite...
the plane to singapore was ok, mel was being 'norak' going "whee *make a wave*" whenever the plane bounced a bit, and den it really did make a really huge bump my butt even lifted from the seat! anyways, the airport was crowded wen the plane wanted to land, so we were delayed for about half an hour - complaining that we only had about 10min to shop - but wen we got out of the plane, the gate was actually REALLY far, so we were all power walking, running, and eventually getting our week's worth of exercise... (but still had time to go toilet and buy alcohol -_-")
and since the other people on this plane did not have to transit like us, they didn't have to rush like us, and we were some of the last people to get on... and to make things worse, my trusty little green scissors that can cut through fabric got taken away!! wa~ i've been bringing it so many times in my pencil case but this is the first time they actually told me to take it out :"( i think when i took it out, the lady officer person was a bit shocked at how small it is, and so the boss guy felt the blade and decided that it 'could hurt someone' haiyah... felt a bit stupid, cos wen the guy told some other people to take it away (to be picked up at sydney airport) the lady officer was like "ini tutupnya" meaning "here's the lid".. yes, my dangerous scissors even had a safety cover thing!!!!
and so after being stressed/sad, got on the plane and realised our seats were on the side next to the kitchen area thing. good thing about it: close so can easily call stewardress if need; but bad thing: they're actually very busy than they seem to be, always going in and out, opening compartments, shutting and opening curtains so that when i'm trying to sleep the light from the kitchen would suddenly flash and then disappear repeatedly haiyah....
and the guy at the back of me could not stop talking!! omg and plus mama's seat infront of me was broken, so when she leans on it, it'll automatically lean to the back, so that the tv screen was really close to my seat and my movie looked all dark (the button to make it brighter was broken \*O*/)
oya back to the talking guy, his voice was soooo loud you could probably hear it a few rows infront of him, and he kept making stupid small talk with the person next to him "do you want a packet of nuts, the stewardess gave me like five packets" and wen the person said no thanks, a few sentences later, he asked again *gyaaaaah*
seemed like an overtly friendly person but still, why so loud...
his voice and the lots of (assumed to be) good movies, made me awake for the whole of the plane trip. first..... me and mel watched 'the black dahlia' cos it looked good and plus it's one of those hollywood movies with good reviews rite...? well...throughout the whole movie, we were like "do you get it? i don't..." and it had some pretty gross (both meanings - gory and eww in the boudoir - ) scenes and wenever it got to the really weird adult scenes, for some reason the stewardress with their carts and some other passengers stuck behind them, would be standing close to our seat... so i was like hmmmm uncomfortable - even though the scene was relevant to the storyline, they don't know that! -
and at the end of the movie, which was reallllly long, we still didn't understand why the person who killed the dahlia did so and i don't even know why she was called the black dahlia.... and i don't understand the relevance of the hilary swank character and why she did that other murder... so basically didn't get the movie at all..
okies den. next movie was 'the queen'. but eyes got sore, so gave up and tried to sleep, but couldn't, so about 2 or 3 hour before plane is supposed to land, decide to start watching again, this time 'the departed'!! yay finally a movie with easier to understand plot/dialogue. it was really good, but some scenes were so painful it makes you go *aahhhh... -wince-* and it was really tragic wen someone from the police force died (won't say who for those who haven't watched).
and near the end of the movie, those stupid announcements telling everyone 'we're gonna land soon' started interrupting the movie, and after, the ppl started going around collecting the headphones!! so i'm like fastforwarding and playing bits and pieces, and i was so shocked by wat happened it was like "wat..... den how??? isn't there a sequel???"
blablablablablaaaaaaaaaaaaa arrive at the airport... felt 'musical' wen i had to pick up koki's guitar and amplifier but den got sad cos my scissors and the other stuff taken hadn't come yet! so finally gave up cos the line for the quarantine was getting long...
ok skip to yesterday at home. i was hungry, but don't bother to arrange the food from the container to plates, so went to sleep from 10 'til 4. den realised supposed to meet friends at capitol at 5, but after lollying (wasting time walking aimlessly etc.) around decided not to go, but ended up still going to the dinner at pancakes at the rocks. ! . then ate, caught the bus to george st, ended up going home den.. dropped off by jess' dad (met tom tom :D who smelt biscotti on me again, even though i didn't pat biscotti while wearing these clothes)
at home, watched nodame episode 7! den slept.
oh, about the pets. they all seem so much fatter!! and den this morning i realise that cc oni filled the boys' food bowl all the way from the bottom to the top, wen usually i stuff half the bowl with newspaper-covered styrofoam so that the portioned food was higher up in the bowl and easier to reach. chinta was still so cute!! and biscotti still shedding like crazy. but phoebe looked so much neater with shorter fur and for some reason, whiter/cleaner paws and face! (i hope my turtle 'pan' is still alive - type about him later wen i get photos -)
so. today i cleaned the gp's and noticed that the boys' diseased skin has improved!! no longer insanely itchy and bald!! koshi doesn't look like an egyptian cat anymore *yay* but he's still scratching behind his ears and around his eye, so still a bit bald there... but i'll wash them with the anti-fungal/skin disease dog shampoo that the 'pet planet' worker in indo recommended me. oya, ponta REALLYYYYY stinks!!! but koshi which is in the neighbouring cage smells normal.... hmm oh and this morning mama found another dead sparrow in the garage *hiiihhh*
oh anyways, that pet planet shop in indo, was sooooo clean and it had this super cute shih tzu which had hair covering his/her eyes so that it looked funny running all hyper when u couldn't see his/her eyes so cuteeee!!!
and they had different breeds of rabbits in really clean 'cages' and they were so cute and healthy looking!! waaaaaaaa i want!!!! oya btw tomo died :"( before i could see him
haiyah this post diverted to pets again...
let's change it to NODAME!!! hehehe today i watched nonstop until the last episode!! so good~ nodame speaks so funny! and chiaki has weird manga expressions as always. a bit sad that it's ended, but now i'll watch the anime version!!! hehehe
so wat am i watching/gonna watch now ei??

oh damn. forgot still haven't finished piano theory homework!!! it takes me like 1 hour to do one page!! and i have another 3 chapters to do!!! :"(
