Wow. I dont think I’ve ever had a more busy uni semester…in my entire life. For reals. I am like…..screwed. I mean I just dont know where all the time goes….you know I cant just study study study 24/7 -.- I NEED TIME TO BREATHE. But thats what everyone of my units expecting from me…just essay after essay after freakin essay. and its just like ARGHHH. I can only take so much essay writing!!!!
Right now I have a 2000 word report, 1500 essay, 2 presentations and an image project (2 photoshopped images + 750 word essay) to do. SRSLY. Did I mention all this was due in in the next two weeks???

August 19th, 2008 | New Domains!
Well I said I’d do it….so I did! I got 2 new domains today XD From Namecheap.com…so thanks to whoever the person was who suggested that site to me - coz it seems very organized lol.
Anyway, I got one for my new personal blog which I will use to rant for just about anything (comment or mail me for the url…read the blog below if you really want to know why :P). its just really hard to express myself when people I personally know can read it….I dunno it’s just weird. Anyway if my wordpress backup doesnt work I might just export the xml and get a fresh installation…just because I really want to redo the tags and categories for this blog. Its so messy!!! I used to think tags and categories were the same thing XD
Anyway my other new domain is for my portfolio….just because I felt like starting it over again. It seriously needs a makeover =_= If you really want to know, the URL is http://ephereal.com. It’ll be up soon…whenever cPanel finally updates Fantastico so I can install and update Wordpress yet AGAIN. I mean, how many updates have they had in the recent months!?!?? Like 5!?!!??! My disk space usage has gone up a lot….70% of it is through the fantastico backups *_*
Anyway I had my first netball game today at uni. I hate Mondays btw. This semester my Mondays feel so loonnng its like I’m practically living at uni for the whole day. And I was so tired today coz I slept at like 3am on Sunday, surfing digg.com(god I LOVE that site).
So anyway, it was good catching up with everyone. We lost….yeah..big surprise…it’s sad and hilarious at the same time. We seriously fail. The teams we vsed today were pretty arrogant though….and the chick that I was up against kept pressing herself against me; I was like wtf!?!? I tried elbowing her 0:-)
So after that we went to Broadway and chatted….about how awesome the olympics is and how ‘olive juice’, ‘elephant’ and ‘colourful’ all look like they say ‘I love you’ when mouthed from someone across the room. Seriously guys, try it out at your next party. Like, if you’re in conversation with someone, look at someone across the room and say something like ‘Gosh that dress is so colourful!’ The person will be 80% guaranteed to give you a raised eyebrow look. 
Also, did you know guys can’t pick up a matchbox with their mouths while kneeling down?? Roflmao. Its so weird. Something about centre of gravity or something….girls can do it but guys just can’t. So if you wanna win 5 bucks from someone you can use this little trick LOL.
Well uni’s boring as usual…feels like I have so much stuff to do. Its just so BLAH. I met up with Mai and Diana on Sunday for coffee in the morning..and we were talking about what we were going to do after whatever we were doing at the moment. Its weird because all my friends are doing different things and its funny seeing everyones attitudes from high school til now. Honestly, sometimes I wish I was back in high school. It really isn’t that bad now that you think about it…I mean its just so structured and organizes your life for you…what more could you want!? XD Plus the assignments werent exactly that hard. I mean looking back now, english lit essays are pretty easy compared to a friggin 3000 word researched essay on some stupid topic like Pulp Fiction(yes I hate this movie - SO overrated).
And the most important thing they dont tell you when you’re in high school? You can mess up completely and still do well for yourself after. Grades in high school doesnt necessarily have to set in stone what youre gunna do for the rest of your life - but I think a lot of people think of final exams as the gateway to the rest of their job centred lives. Which is kinda sad when you think about. I don’t mean to say grades dont mean much…coz they do…its just that its not the end of the world if you’re just doing average, ya know? If you do something you really like at the end of the day, I guess that’s what counts. Its pretty amazing where everyone goes after high school though. I mean its 2 years since I left and it feels like just last year.
I guess I’m looking for something more in life right now…its just assignments after assignments, plus pressure on what youre gunna do after uni…it kinda gets under my skin sometimes. Im so glad I finish next year - though I’ll probably be sad to leave when graduation eventually happens. There are things in uni I love - you can definitely learn a lot if you’re interested.
After I finish, I’ve already planned on going on some world tour with Monique….or Simone. I really want to go backpacking in America during summer so we can catch all the big music festivals - the festivals here are ok but when you look at the lineups in USA…WOW. I am SO JEALOUS. I mean 3 day festivals are unheard of over here!!!! And the 2 day festival down south is for acoustic country music which I’m not interested in =.= Anyway Big Day Out and Soundwave discussions have already begun on the bands that could possibly play here next year. I’m just holding out for NIN. NIN. NIN. NIN. NIN. NIN. OH GOD PLEASE. COME TO PERTH. Seriously, if they came….it would seriously be the best BDO EVAR. Even better than 2006 which had both TOOL AND MUSE. Wow I hope those NIN rumours are true. I dont know if they would play a BDO again though…but youcan hope ;-P Coldplay and Radiohead are also rumoured but theyre pretty meh for me. I’d prolly just see them just to say ‘yeah ive seen that crappy band’ 0:-) Haha. Last year was pretty boring actually….only awesome thing about it was RATM LIVE and maybe the grinspoon mosh pit…man it was VIOLENT though. Simone lost one shoe, her mobile phone and her sunglasses in the RATM moshpit XD Yeah it really was that crazy. She had to crowdsurf out LOL.
Anyway this blog has kind of gone off on a tangent lol…I’m actually really hungry right now but I cant get food since its 2:30am and I’ll prolly wake everyone up xD Darn. Oh well. Have a good rest of the week guys!

August 13th, 2008 | Ugh…
Well not much has been happening, apart from the fact that uni is keeping me busy, and watching the olympics has taken up a lot of my free time. I seriously love the oylmpics because I get to watch sports I never ever would. I mean once in every four years you get to watch archery, kayaking and gymnastics in the same time frame! Awesome. Though the coverage over here is pretty bad - ads every few minutes, incompetant commentators…lol. Its quite funny reading the comments on the aussie forums!!
Anywho…my mum found out about this blog >_> Which sucks because I just want somewhere where I cant rant freely without getting a hard time. Lol. Is that seriously too much to ask!!?!!?!? I suppose that kinda contradicts what internet blogging is all about. But seriously….I guess I’ll just keep typing…and hope she never ever reads this again *cough* *cough* Seriously though…I’ve been thinking about getting a new domain anyways so yah. Look out for that sometime in the future…
Oh and she does’t want me to get a tattoo. I mean geez, what’s wrong with THINKING ABOUT IT. I dont even know if I’ll get one -_- Ugh. Anyway…
We had to watch this movie at uni today called the Lady Eve. Its like some black and white screwball comedy and it was actually quite entertaining. My Reading Film unit has all these weird b&w cult noir movies that I would never watch so I guess it’s kinda eye opening as to the different genres and everything. I have to do a presentation on Sunset Boulevard in a few weeks and I have no idea what its about…the only reason I chose it was because it was the only one I’d heard of!!! But yeah should be interesting.
Oh yeah and I joined Rhianons netball team this semester - we’re called the Toxic Sausages -_- SERIOUSLY GUYS WHAT!? Lol. We had intros in one of my comm tutes and my lecturer actually knew about our team - he was like ‘oh apparently they’re really easy to beat’. ROFLMAO. How embarassing XD I still havent broken the news to Rhianon yet. XD
I really need to go to the library. I haven’t read a good book in AGES and I just really want to go now xD I dont have to go to uni tomorrow (woohoo) so I’ll be surfin the web a bit more…I know Im an insomniac but I cant help it!!
