Red Skies

Accomplished all deadlines and now my plane awaits me... that if everything goes smoothly.

SERIOUSLY!! It's like as if fate is playing tricks on me!!
First pack deadlines all together, then 1 day before I fly they have to gimme obstacles!!

Dust Storm a meterological phenomenon common in arid and semi-arid regions and arises when a gust front passes or when the wind force exceeds the threshold value where loose sand and dust are removed from the dry surface (Wikipedia 2009).

Basically it means having a sandstorm in urbanized areas. Why does the country have to have such a big plot of desert smack in the middle and why must it be the driest continent on the planet!?!?
So Suay Dust Storm must occur today and worst hit city is Sydney, NSW somemore!! THEN So Suay wind direction change and send the dust storm from Sydney to Brisbane, Qld within hours lar!!!!
It better clear up tomorrow otherwise I wouldn't know what will happen to my flight!!!

WAHHH!!! After I return from my holiday still have to clean up the room from all the red "sand"/dust that cloaked my room!!!!!!!!!

People should provide red alert maid services in Australia that specialises in cleaning up the mess that dust storms create for the victims like me.
My eyes are itching from the dust.
Better go sleep before it swells up.

Bummer.

It's like they know

Deadlines and plans always seem to love to squish themselves together real tight and cozy.
You can now pick up a gun and shoot me right in the head and save me the responsibilities that is weighing me down right now.

This has been the tightest deadlines I've ever encountered in my 17 years of life as a student.
Monday: Individual Report 2500 words
Tuesday: Group Assignment Progress Report 2 pages
Wednesday: Group Report 4000 - 5000 words
Thursday: Flight to Sydney at midday.

Wednesday's deadline is approaching and I've over fried my brains and dried my eyes. I'm nearly turning into a piece of meat lying on my bed rotting away.

It seems like I MIGHT be reliving days like this in the November ~ December period once more.
Maybe then a gun wouldn't be suffice. I might need someone to drive a train and crash right in my face for any hopes of salvaging my life.

Recap: 23 April 2008, Wednesday - "I'm getting emotional"

I was searching for an older entry (don't ask why) and stumbled upon this: 23 April 2008, Wednesday - "I'm getting emotional"

The last 3 paragraphs gave me a shock. I never remembered how it felt like thinking like that. I don't even remember I had this side of me.
Thinking back, I feel so weak and feeble now.

I had the motivation to become stronger, I'm thankful for all those around me and i exude this aura of optimism.

Now, I'm all negative, dark and analytical.

I must have spent too much time cooped up alone.
I need to learn to embrace the world like I used to.

I need to keep away from the bottles of wine in my room before I finally get too drunk in pain to stop myself from snacking excessively.
Emo drinker? NOT!!
...more like Wasted Porker.

EPIC PURE ENTERTAINMENT!!!!!!!!! =D

Life Report

My kid bro msn-ed me to inform me that he now wants a maltese.
Like as if I'm gonna fall for that.
So unless he can find a dog with my characteristics, I'm not even gonna consider at all.

Characteristic guidelines:
  • Eat
  • Constantly constipated
  • Sleep too much
  • Loner
Note that that's the guideline for the dog, although its really up to you to decode the above however you wish to.

Oh! Talking abt constipation, I went to to the mall yesterday for some stupid Retail Mgt assignment research and had a sudden craving for pitted prunes. I headed down to Coles (supermkt) and searched the aisles 3 times before finally finding the rack of raisins and prunes. I headed straight home and started snacking on prunes.
I thought: "No guilt here on snacking since prunes are suppose to be pretty nutritious right?"
WRONG!
Within 3 hours, my stomach started grumbling and ummm.... yea.... *ahem*
So it ummm...... grumbled for the whole night.
Now Na knows: Eat prunes in moderation.

Bloody room inspections woke me up at 11am, asked random questions and wished me "have a good nap!" upon leaving.
Like EXCUSE ME? I just Freaking Woke Up!

I have a lot more to rant about, but I realise I'm just PMS-ing. It's been going on for the entire week but I only JUST noticed it. But no worries... I've been suppressing it, carefully not to offend anyone with my own issues.
URGH! It's so hard this semester!
My body is showing signs of confusion in adapting.
Ignore me.

SuJu joins the streak

Gotta do an edit on the list of Jinxed Kpop Boybands:

All the Top Kpop Agencies' Top Boybands are jinxed this season.

SM Entertainment: TVXQ -- Contract Law suit

YG Entertainment: Big Bang -- Daesung's fatal accident

JYP Entertainment: 2PM -- Jaebeom's abrupt departure

DSP Entertainment: SS501 -- Hyunjoong's swine flu [Recovered & Recuperating]

**Newest!!
SM Entertainment: Super Junior -- Kangin's assault case

Though representatives have clarified that Kangin wasn't involved in the brawl, he was just a bystander, an eyewitness, it's scary/tarnishing enough to put SuJu on the Jinxed List.

That was quick

Just as I was typing, asking boybands to return, Super Junior M must have heard my cries in the Southern Hemisphere and released their latest MV straight away.

Warning before viewing: Zone out on the lyrics, don't even bother reading or listening. Just watch and hear.

HappyHappy!! They pull Henry to the front, put Donghae beside him, and FOCUSED ON THESE 2 BOYS!! WHOOOTS!
Though everyone thought Siwon was a little neglected in the MV, so unlike SuJu since Siwon is the best looking man they've got on the team.

Oh.. and CNA has shone some light on Korean reality. THIS IS WHY JAEBEOM LEFT!!

Quote Sab: "If this continues, Koreans will soon face extinction."

Na goes: Muahahahahahahahaha!!! So Yunho can escape and find solace in my arms!!
*Grins*

NO mood

Haven't had mood to sit and type in a while, but duty calls as deadlines draw nearer and Na switches on her "Procrastinator" sign again.

Saturday was my last River Fire in Brisbane. 30minutes long of Fireworks along the Brisbane river, shooting from the boats, bridge and buildings across the river in the CBD skyline of Brissy.
Too lazy to load photos on blogger, so you'll just have to deal with descriptions.

And within 2 days, an impromptu holiday down to Syd & Canberra was decided for the mid-sem break. Despite having concrete plans already laid out, no one seems to be enthusiastic enough to take action. So up till now, it's still an idea bubble above our heads until tickets and hotels are booked.
**Why do I have a feeling that I'll have to take the lead again**
After being in the middle for all my life, it sucks turning into the oldest of the lot.

Na gets even more Emo now that Kpop is evolving into an empty shell.

All the Top Kpop Agencies' Top Boybands are jinxed this season.

SM Entertainment: TVXQ -- Contract Law suit

YG Entertainment: Big Bang -- Daesung's fatal accident

JYP Entertainment: 2PM -- Jaebeom's abrupt departure

DSP Entertainment: SS501 -- Hyunjoong's swine flu

NA HAS NO MORE MOTIVATION!!

And so.....
Kpop is turning to the Chics to liven up the stage.
Not that it's a bad thing since it's a once in a lifetime opportunity for newbies to garner as much attention as they can get before the sunbaes return (in 1 piece).

The only problem is that the absence of testosterone on stage might soon turn me into a Bi.
True story. Amber from the new SM girl group F(x) is turning me on.
Girls imagining Amber in a dress is almost like fantasizing SHINee's Taemin in a girl outfit!
Curious?

Spot the "boy" and you'll see why Na can't get her eyes off the kid.
There's barely any humps on her and throw her into Suju or SHINee and no 1 can tell the difference!
Her resemblance to SuJu's MIA-man Kibum in her debut teaser photos might actually win her a spot in replacement of Kibum to smoke the presence of 13 members on stage!!
(and Wooyoung and Taec's appearance at the end of the video just screams pain! 2PM yah! Jay!! Come back!!!)

In any case, boybands better make the scene soon before I start having wet dreams over a girl.

**Looks forward to SuJu M and Taeyang's return**

Black + White = Grey

This morning, I had a revelation.

I realised that while everyone is constantly moving forward, I'm staying still in the same spot, running on a treadmill.

I still feel the betrayal, but the emotions were clear-headed and rational. You see, the difference was 1 was hidden in the dark, while the other came out into the light.

While maybe the additional information of the existence of "guilt and conscience" helped to a certain extent, it was not enough to get me out of an aged long dilemma.

Then I wonder, with the new me who feeds on company with friendship, and with no reservations to engaging in social activities, would I then react differently if the real person ever stands in front of me?

Afterall, the new me is not an upgraded version of my personality. It's a dug out portion of Na that was forced hidden for a very long time.
It seems like people who grew up in the same country, but stranded in another, doesn't seem to mind "straightforward, blunt, and sarcastic" people.

This then blurs out the previous friendship theory I was working on:
I make friends whom I want to keep,
I entertain those that benefit,
I leave the rest who are not worth it.

Now there's a grey area hiding behind the lines. Or maybe I'm looking at this too academically. I should just go out there and let the music go with the flow. Spontaneous reactions aren't my specialty, but then I'll know what my true feelings really are.





Once I've let the cat out of the bag, it'll take double the effort to keep it in captivity again. People claim to embrace change, but will they tolerate change that they've once pushed away?





I know you've always been on my side. You were the only few who accepted me for who I am.
Which is why you've now blurred the line I drew.

This new grey area is unfamiliar and strange. I'm not sure how to feel about it.

Pardon me.

You will never starve to death

If you're multi-talented.

In other words, you're versatile.

He's by far the model with the most versatile poses in a photoshoot.
His Evisu print ad posters showed a wide array of complex poses that make us all wonder how he did it.

I doubt anybody actually notices msn display pictures anymore, so unless you're on my list of frequent chatters on msn, I don't think you'll realise that my recent DPs are all Yunho's Evisu photoshoot.

Yunho aside, I have been investing a lot of time in developing depth in friendships lately.
Despite complaining that I've been losing a lot of alone time, this semester, Na has been holding a weekly 3 hour leisure chatting over lunch, and an immediate impromptu company whenever ppl request that I'll never reject.

So finally, when Na gets to spend time with herself, she was enlightened by her recent actions.
I make friends whom I want to keep,
I entertain those that benefit,
I leave the rest who are not worth it.

Then again, it sounds like what everyone is doing.
Oh Wells.

I don't mean to sound crude

I'm not swearing, not at all!!!

Austria's Fucking Town:

Even if the whole point of travelling to Austria is to take photo with the road sign... It'll look awesome on Facebook and increase the no. of activities/hits on your page.

WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO???

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN SINGAPORE!?!?!
"Nobody" on 987's top 20 and No. 5 on chart for 3 weeks!?!?!
It took Korea 1 entire year to get sick of this song. Let's see how long more Singaporeans can tahan this repetitive song.

As you can tell from my task bar, I'm busy with assignments. Back to work!
