:D
I should end this last post happily at least... hmm let's see..
Updates on quadsuit: I've searched all of the fabric stores in cabra and just as I expected, they don't sell fake fur. My only option is to buy them only. Approx 1yard of the fur i need, is approc $25 (excluding shipping..) No wonder why quadsuits uses up about $300-$500.. and they sell for 1.7k+ (Normal price would be 2k)
I have sent at least 10+ emails to different foam suppliers, and I found 2 that I like. One in bankstown, and another in Vic. Most likely, I'm going to get the one in Vic. They've sent me free samples of the foam and.. its perfecto!! :)
On another note, I had my first Friday parkour class from 6-8:40pm and it was THE BEST! I swear I'm gonna try to not miss another of the Friday classes. There was a total of 24 guys, and 3 girls (inclusing me) I don't really care about the amount of guys, because they're super friendly! And it's really helping me to boost my confidence and all, and they're pretty awesome and nice ;)
Summing up what happened last Thursday. Part of my group went movies but I couldn't go because I had a Birthday that I promised to go to, and besides, a friends birthday is more important than going out to watch movies with part of your group isn't it? And I wasn't the only one that didn't go so I don't see why some have the need to complain rofls :) Anyways. The cake was great! I think it was the yummiest cake I've ever eating, but damn the cream was too much for me xD It was pretty much what you can call perfect cream. I'm not much of a sweet tooth, and that cream was really nice. It wasn't sweet to the max, and it wasn't plain either, but in the end I had to give up on the cream, because there was just too much! =) After that, I went with Jess to livo. She told me she was going livo too, which is why I hitched a ride with her hehe. Took us 3 hours, to find the things I needed. I can't stop thanking her rofls. It was so hard to look for a plain black NORMAL t-shirt, and black track-like pants that is easy to move in! (With a bit of elastic at the bottom)
On that same day when I came home, I looked for my sport shoes for the next day.. only to find out (when I called my mum) that she chucked them in the bin.. O_O When she came home, she presented me with new shoes. Black ones. Nike. $90.. and it was a full sole.. those one-sole ones.. so its not like those sport shoes that are 2 piece and stuck together.. so these one were pretty suitable for parkour BUT, the sole was a bit too thick so it doesn't really give me the chance it "feel" what's under my foot xD But still, it's good xD
I can always buy the Feiyues.. but they're $50 O_O
AND here I shall be going. I do hope I might post some things in the future still.. at least once or two (then that'll be called temporary leave and not permanent) xD
Hmmm.. I feel bad posting what I did before... but oh well. Now some people will know that the whole time, they don't even know me, and they still don't actually :D
SO hungry. Gonna go finish off cleaning and adding stuff to my room, then back to study :)

I shall be on temporary leave.. or maybe I won't come back. :) I might still blog.. but don't be looking forward to me blogging :)
So many things have been happening.. I seriously think some people are screwed up.. going back on their words and stuff. I'm so sick of it. So you know what I'll do? I shall slowly remove myself from their world. After the hsc and stuff, hopefully they will forget about my existence. It's too bothersome if I'm there, and I don't want to have anything to do with that person either. Even if it may be not be possible for them to completely forget about me, but at least my existence to them will be reduced.
Say whatever the fuck you want because you know what? I've had enough. I'm just going to ignore all this bullshit and continue living the way I do. You can be fake or upright I don't give a shit. Do whatever you want but I just want you to get this through your thick skull. I.Have.A.Life. So don't fucking tell me how to live my life and what I should do.
And just because I'm timid on the outside doesn't mean I'm the same inside. For your information, no one knows "who I am" besides 2 people outside my family, and guess what? You're not one of them. And if this hurts you, well... it shouldn't anyway. You have NO fucking clue what I've went through because of you, and I don't intend to tell you anymore than that. And to the person that I told you everything by mail, keep your promise aye? ;) Oh yeah.. and your dream really is coming true. It's just that it hasn't shown itself physically, but underneath, it already began long ago.
Ahh shit. Looks like I've broken my own promise of not posting negative things here.. One day, when the time is right, I will be creating a new blog, but I won't be deleting this one. The new one will be a new start. It will be clean of these past. AND.. it shall be more awesomeee xD
Oh.. and last note. Don't try to talk to me. I had to write this because some things doesn't seem to be getting through your head. Is it clearer to you now? Well I hope so.
LOL reading through this again.. I figured I should have said this heaps earlier.. and this kinda came out the wrong time. But oh well I hope they understand this at least. -siighh--

Quadsuit Looks update
Alright so... the whole day it's been bugging me. My outline of the quadsuit looks... like a cat! Not a Tiger..
Sooo.. I spent another hour taking pictures of myself in a position most suitable for a Tiger. It was hard XD I had do numerous positions because they're either too uncomfortable but perfect shape/position for the Tiger's body, or too comfortable but does not match a Tiger's body at all..
Sooo I decided to go with both. Half half. Usually in this position, it may wear you out because the front-to-be-stilts (for front paws) is too short, therefore lowering your top half which can be very tiring.. But I can get used to that so it's probably alright for me :) I just hope my completed suit looks like this but yeah.. doubt it. Probably look somewhat close.
Look like a Tiger now? :)

Quadsuit
Here it goes again :P
I've been yet again, inspired by certain people on their quadsuits.. it's just bloody amazing!! And because of that, I'm so pumped up I'm gonna try to make my own. I've estimated that it will take me about 5-8 months to finish it, or probably a year.
What is a quadsuit you may wonder. Know those fursuits? like the Easter Bunny one. Well those are fursuits, where you put on the big face mask and stand upright. Quadsuits on the other hand, requires you to be on all fours, with the headpiece attached to a helmet which of course goes to your head.
Now, they are really expensive.. a full fursuit one can cost up to $1000.. as a mascot.
Usually work in progress ones sell up to $200, with only the foam and exoskeleton. I've estimated.. that I'll be spending well over $300 on this, but hey I'm pretty sure its worth it XD I know I may sound immature and weird, but I love acting as animals.. even my little brother sits on my back and I become his "horse" for the time being (Damn he's getting heavier.. don't think I can keep that up) And I'm pretty good at running on all fours - For the few [about 3 people] that have seen me.. you know what I mean ;) -
OKAY soo I'll only upload this one image, and about in a years time or so i'll upload the finish product roflss. Along with the images and videos I would have taken along the way.
Colour? White and Orange. Animal? Tiger. I don't think it will turn out so good though. I have no experience what so ever, so I've decided to do this to improve my creative skills and imagination. Also to move me away from anime and games =)
Here's the plan. Don't worry about the shading, that's just my foam planning... XD

Tired...
I've been so tired lately. After school, I would fall asleep for about 3-4 hours, everyday. I seriously don't know what's wrong with me :( Due to this, I haven't been able to complete school work properly either...
Improvise?
I must be out of my mind. Last Thursday I went and bought mince beef... and mushrooms. And I've forgotten about them. Today I remembered, and now I'm thinking.. why did I buy that for? I have no idea what to do with them.. and tomorrow is it's due date.. so I decided to improvise and.. make SOMETHING out of it. Not sure what I'm making.. but if I end up with a bad stomach and toilet problems.. I'd know why XD
And so I washed the mushrooms.. chopped it up, took out the mince meat, mixed it with oil, sugar, salt and pepper.. I just added random amounts. Still don't know what I'm doing :) And lastly.. I found coriander in the fridge so I chopped them up too, and some onions, which I chopped up till there were about 1x1mm in size =D In the cupboard I found some umm.. what are they called.. ahh those soft tortillas or something.
I guess.. what ever the meat turns out to be.. i might be able to eat them with those tortillas.. maybe I should make some rice too.. -shrugs- I seriously hope I don't food poison myself :P
Edit 1 [Cooking] : So I managed to cook them all.. and I actually forgot to put the onion in first.. so I just chucked them in somewhere halfway through :) To my surprise.. it actually smells kinda nice! But.. we say looks can be deceiving.. I'm gonna say "smells can be deceiving.." I've placed a lid on the pan so that the flavor can umm be absorbed? Iunno.. I shall check it again in a few minutes. There seems to be quite a lot of liquid in there. Might put it on simmer till it condenses..
Edit 2 [Tasting] : .. omgsh... It actually tastes quite nice! I was too afraid to try it first.. So I scooped a bit into those small sauce dish, and gave it to my mum. She she tried it.. and she was quiet for too long so I got really nervous XD Then she told me it was pretty good. Ahhh so glad.. went back to the kitchen and tried it for myself, and to my surprise I liked it :) It wasn't awesome or anything, but it's pretty decent and edible. Time to fry up the tortillas!!
Edit 3 [Final] : Mmmm... I like ;) Here's the pictures. Everyone else ate it with prawn crackers =)

Update Summary
Alrighties.. so I can't be bothered typing out what happened in the last few days.. but to sum it up..
After school on Thursday I went with Jolly, Stefani, Melissa, Swissanah, Jessica L, Megan, Cindy and Grestine to celebrate Jolly's 17th :) We went to stockies and.. well the plans went astray and some stuff happened.. which wasn't so good..
And I was finally able to buy my watch.. A casio one, for the price of $119 ^^
Hmm.. oh yes! Today in hosplitality, we made Meat Pies!! Mmmm.. it was yummy! But there was something off about the flavour lol. Overall very nice. I put it back in the oven when I got home because it was soft XD

-sniff-
I'm sick. So sick that I'll post about today tomorrow after school. Omgsh.. I hope I heal up for bio tomorrow.. I'm trying to draw out my final copy of the model and it's so hard when I can't see properly because my eye is swollen.. and it's so annoying that I have to reach for a tissue like.. every minute or something cause of my blocked and runny nose. The reactions to a many cats.. xD Such bad luck for one who loves animals. Why the allergy.. WHYYYYY!!....

Fight!
Still gotta pull my act together. I got my Maths results back from Ariel and had 75% so I'm pretty please with that. I just need to do even better now. For English I got.. 65%.. same as usually.. BUT I can do better still! :) And For religion I got 87% so that's like.. heaps good. Should try and keep it at that level, or strive for higher results, if it's even possible for me ^^
I'm still disappointed with me, for being unable to keep to my timetable.. as in doing homework and assignments properly.. I was literally saved when bios' due date was moved from Monday to Friday.. and I still have PDHPE which is due on Wednesday, which I still haven't completed. I planned to finish it yesterday (Monday) But I kept on falling in and out of sleep xD Didn't get to work on it. I wanted to have Dana check it too... :'(
ALSO, my sleep time if still in holiday mode. Maybe that's why. I keep on ending up going to bed around 12.. and I should be sleeping at 10, waking up at 6am everyday.. gonna force myself to change my sleeping patterns :)
AND I have calculated an estimate of this year's spending fee for me..
$225 (group BD) + $500 (Special Occasion) + $480 (Parkour) + $1040 (Dog food) + $45 (Jersey) + $30 (Parkour shirt/uniform) = $2320... and I haven't included dog vaccinations, worms/tablets.. groceries.. food.. and etc. Looks like no shopping for me this year :) Must cut back on buying things I want (Watch is an except) -sigh-

Dear Certain Dreamer
That weird and unusual dream you had about me, and what happened in it or what I said in it. Well.. I was shocked because I was thinking along those lines in the holidays :) But who knows now! Depends on the circumstances, if anything happens or not.. good or bad.. it might happen and it might not.
SMILEE!! |

Last day of Parkour Foundations for Flow program
:( I'm happy and sad! :) Today was great. Although I fell and landed head first (back of head) and got a little dizzy.. but everything was find afterwards =P (from a height of 1m. Thank god it was that soft tyre-like floor at the park..) I shall be continuing every Tuesday and Fridays (Definitely Fridays) but maybe not always Tuesday. Depends if I got time on my hands. Shall be getting the Parkour 9 Lives t-shirt. Yeah it's a uniform =)
Awesome day
I like today :) I received my studies of religion assignment back and.. I got WAY better than I expected! Sir called me up and the only thing that went through my brain was "oh shit I failed.." because.. truth be told.. Religion is one of my weakest subjects.. but then.. when I got there.. he showed me my marks and congratulated me, and said I did A LOT better than last time. So I improved :) He was right afterall.. that last assessment we had I failed it and he told me he knows I can do a lot better, and maybe I should move seats.. cause the people I sit next to bludge in class to ahahas. But I didn't move anyway... no way XD
Pretty good for completing and understanding it the night before. Two friends scanned my work for the info. I wonder how they went :P
Dreading the English one..

Fan
Gah~!!
I swear I am going to buy a FAN. Either a small table one.. or one that can fit somewhere in my room. My room is seriously the furthest from the aircon... and its so bloody hot!! I'm like.. dying in my room.. even with the windows open there isn't much difference..

CNY
Happy Chinese New Year! =)
Not much happened this year. Due to certain employees that "dumped" back their work on my parents because they HAD to do stuff for Chinese New Year, my parents spent their entire day in the garage working on their employees job. I didn't see much of my dad today. He went in and out of the house delivering stuff to other people. I spent my whole day in my room either TRYING to work, or falling asleep because I was tired for no reason. It was very difficult, since every time I try to concentrate my head starts hurting then I feel so sick and dizzy. I should have stayed home yesterday, knowing the weather was so hot and.. I do get sick easily :) So.. my grandma did the cooking.. and no one really cleaned the house up. It was normal. Everyone was doing their own thing. We didn't eat dinner as a family either. I heard the fireworks, but didn't see it. All I saw was my work. My dad came in and took my work table so I had to use my other table and it was so small!! They gave it back after the traditional praying thing outside. Gave back my table with candle wax all over it rofls.
Well, looks like I'm up late. Why is it that around this time, I start to get better, THEN I'm able to do my work.. I slept for 4-6 hours during the day.. and now I have to stay up late to study a bit of pe for the quiz tomorrow, and finish off bio holiday homework (yeah.. I have completely forgotten about that) XD

Note To Self
I need a watch. It's too fussy depending on my phone for the time. During school I'm going to leave my phone in my locker, so I need to have a watch for keep track of time. I did have one.. but Cookie chewed it till the leather broke rofls... and the watch was around $70 o.O'
Can't get it tomorrow after school.. since I have to go home, and get ready asap for parkour. Tuesday and Thursday too. This is the last week of the Foundations for Flow program. Next week I'll be going regularly every Friday night. SO, about the watch.. I'll probably have to ask my mum to get me one.. either a good expensive one.. or those cheapy ones in cabra :) Oh yeah, and it'll be analogue. Mmm yea digital watches are cool, but nahh. Analogue's the classic style ;)
Having a sweep over my room.. tidying some places up.. getting uniform ready and oh my.. a pile of dishes waiting for me =='

I'll probably have to ask my mum to get me one.. either a good expensive one.. or those cheapy ones in cabra :) Oh yeah, and it'll be analogue. Mmm yea digital watches are cool, but nahh. Analogue's the classic style ;)
Having a sweep over my room.. tidying some places up.. getting uniform ready and oh my.. a pile of dishes waiting for me =='

Awesomeee!!
Very happy with myself :) My first try on anime as a kid, not adult or teen and it turned out better than I expected. I wasn't sure if I should colour it, but I traced out my draft on a new piece of paper and gave it a try and it was worth it! First time colouring things like this. I'd usually avoid it well.. whenever I add colour I always ruin it =)
A huge thanks to Sa for helping me and giving me advice on the hair and eye colour!! <3

Library/Woolies
So today I went to cabra library and met up with Libby to work on biology =) Ahhh she help me understand Part A so that was good, since I missed out nearly all the lessons we had on it. The library had like.. hardly anything on our topic, and when we searched the computer, most of the books we wanted was in fairfield.
So around 12ish we packed up and moved out. Went to newsagency to buy cardboard. Since I wasn't sure how my model would look like, Libby advised me to buy only the base and buy the colours when I'm ready XD
Ummm we went back to library where her friends were meeting up, but as we got there and went in, they moved out.. so out we went again, and boy my thighs were dying from after affects of parkour :) Said out goodbyes and yea. I went back to the public toilet and called my mum, and she told me to go woolies.. omgh I was carrying so many things.. SO I went to woolies and bought ALLL the stuff she told me to get, and a few extras. By the time I was done getting everything, the trolley was full but not overloaded.. at the counter.. I was like.. astonished that the price went up sooo fast.. $110.. was the overall price of items I bought. Roflss. Well it's okay anyways, since my mum gave me $100 when I came home :) Tiring day. Now I'm gonna go look for food, take a break and then back to assignments!

The arrival of the Holy Pillow
Thank you Sophia for making me an admin to her blog.
This is Jenga (or Jessica if you're used to that) and I am the definition of awesome. [Sophia: and I am the definition of awesomeness] Of course, being the awesome person I am, I will make this blog even more awesome :P
Oh if you're not having enough awesomeness from this blog (which is highly unlikely because this blog is uber awesome) you may check out this blog to experience a greater sense of awesomeness.
By the way, Sophia, Cookie, Bebe, Momo, Tania, Florence, Yuki and Stella are all awesome living things like I am (:

Sophia: Wait for mee!!!
Sophia: Wait for mee!!!
:O
Sometimes I wonder if I'm suppose to be more.. gentler?
-sigh- My legs have bruises one after the other (I don't remember the last time where my legs are free of bruises) and I look at my arms.. there's a cut here, and minor abrasions everywhere else ^^
Today at parkour, I am VERY pleased. I succeeded in getting up a 2m wall =) I need more practice on the run up and jump, because I seem to jump AT the wall, not UP the wall :)
And sometime, I'm gonna have to apologise to a certain someone rofls. I had to make up a lie and keep lying about something. But it's all for the sake of a surprise but yeah.. I feel so bad still.. :( Hope I'm forgiven!! And I hope that person doesn't read this post before the lil event ;)

Fireworks
-sigh- I'm not sure what's making me post this.. but it's Australia Day, and the fireworks are on.. and I can't really see them. Just sitting in my room and listening, made me realise that I've never seen fireworks up close. I think the closest I've been to a firework was at cabramatta for the moon fest.. but that was appalling! ^^ Other than that, the next closest I've seen them is outside my house, and from my view they're about 30cm big O.O
mmmmm this is making me feel so down! ahahas. Wait no I've seen them on tv and the radius was heaps bigger than 30cms XD I really want to see them one day. They're look so amazing from far away or on the tv screen..
Well anyways, I don't think I'm the only one that hasn't seen fireworks up close :) Maybe one day I'll get the chance.
Other than that.. eheheheh -goofy smile- I've ordered quite a few things from ebay and there's was this one item that came.. and I was jumping for joy. I've been looking for this item in my size for SOOO long, since all this time, the ones that I've worn were always big for me, even though there were the smallest size i could find around here.. so getting on of ebay for only $4.50 it was FABULOUS. It fits soo snugly and the quality is great! ^^ Now I'm gonna transfer more money into my paypal to buy a lot more. Hmm no idea what I should do with the other ones now..
Ahhh and Roger gave me some more "unwanted" nendoroids :D But I still like them! and Damn he sure is a fan of Miku Hatsune ^^

Frustration
So I've been able to finally play the whole song of "Love Ya" by SS501 on piano. I've learnt it off from youtube, but then the girl that played it wasn't exactly as how the song went.. so after I learnt her version I decided to tweak it to match the song more ^^ That was very very difficult but I managed to make it sound a tad closer.. now the problem is playing it fluently.. and the tempo is way TOO fast for me. I can play it fast but boy.. I stuff it up like crazy. Tried playing WITH the song, but then I play too fast -sigh-
So now, I'm just gonna play my tempo which is slower.. and when I get the chance I'll record the songs I learnt and put them up on youtube :) I still need to learn Wedding Dress xD

Florence :D
So here's the outcome of my first try on "hair/fur" It's alright. I definitely need heaps more practice. I didn't have any blending stumps or kneadable rubber.. so snipped some parts off my rubber :) And for blending, I used tissue and paper. Still better than using fingers!! There's also something off about this picture that I don't like.. hmm..

Graphic Sketching
Yeshh.. The Graphic Pencils I ordered through ebay finally arrived :) And well.. as soon as I got them, I tested them out one some small simple sketches. I can't try any more detailed work until I get my kneadable eraser and blending stumps, which are also on their way.. so here's a pic of the Pencils I ordered, and 2 of my test sketches!

Neocube!!
Ahhh I was so excited when I ordered a pack of neocubes :) They cost around $20 as normal price here, but I ordered online form Hong Kong, and I only paid $12.77 for it!! There's 216 balls in a set but sometimes they give extra. Where I got it from, they gave me 4 extra but I don't really need it.. its sooo awesome playing with it, and now my granny wants one so I shall order one for her too =)
hehe everyone was impressed with it. I'm just learning more patterns and stuff with it atm. Right now, its just a bracelet/band on my arm ^^

Memories
I want to take more photos this year.. it's the last year, and I hardly take any pictures with my friends.. they all probably think I hate taking photos, and I say that too, but in reality I love taking photos with friends.. its fun, but I just don't have enough joy in my own image ^^
Looking back at group photos and outings.. I'm hardly there. It's like as if I'm not a member of a group, but a by passer that just sits there longer than usual, but I guess that's fine. As long as I have those few people that understand me it's alright =) Still, I plan to be more social anyways.
-sigh- 2 weeks left.. I guess this is when we say holidays is at its end for 2011 HSCers. Looks like there wasn't even a chance before holidays, that we'd be together as a last fun outing before we get involved in our constant studies.

Scorpio
Scorpio Strength Keywords: Loyal, Passionate, Resourceful, Observant, Dynamic.
Scorpio Weakness Keywords: Jealous, Obsessive, Suspicious, Manipulative, Unyielding
Scorpio and Independence:
Scorpios are fiercely independent. They are able to accomplish anything they put their mind to and they won't give up. They are perfectly suited to being on their own. They are not social butterflies like some other zodiac signs and some actually prefer to live on their own that way there is never any issue of who controls what at home, they like to be in control.
Scorpio and Friendship:
Relationships with Scorpio are always complicated, just like the person, their relationships are a series of extremes, they can even be downright moody for no apparent reason. Scorpios are known for their possessiveness and jealousy but on the other hand, they are extremely loyal. Scorpios have an excellent memory and combined with an inability to let things go, they can hold a grudge against someone who did them harm forever, in fact a Scorpio rarely if never forgives and forgets. They will even go as far as get vengeance on the person. On the other hand, they will always remember a kind gesture forever and repay it. Any kind selfless gesture done to a Scorpio will gain trust and respect which is extremely important to them in any relationship, either romantic or not. The best advice is to be honest with a Scorpio friend and in return, you will gain an amazing friend you will never forget and who will be loyal to you and never make false promises. Their truthful and shocking sense of humor if different than that of any other zodiac sign and the Scorpio makes an amazing, powerful interesting friend that can be trusted.
Scorpio and Business:Scorpios make excellent doctors, surgeons, scientists and leaders, they are perfectly suited to any form of business that makes a difference in the world, greatly impacts people and society and a most importantly, Scorpio has to be in a power position, this is why these careers are suited to the Scorpio, they all demand one person in supreme control giving orders and leading a unit of people/practices. In business, Scorpios tend to easily gather wealth, they make very wise business decisions and they are very conservative about spending their money. Scorpios are known for making money and hiding it, they will not announce it due to to fear that others will take the same route and becoming a possible competitor, or worse try to use the Scorpio to their advantage to use them for their money.
Scorpio and Temperament:Scorpios are extremely ambitious, persistent and determined which is shown through a power hungry, controlling attitude. Not in a stubborn sense however, because a Scorpio will work for what they want and control will justified reasons. This is obvious to any onlooker. A Scorpio never gives up, they are so determined to reach their goal. The key to this success is their flexibility. They are able to re-survey a situation and take a different approach if necessary. This makes them very adaptable and versatile. Scorpios are fierce competitors, combined with their powers of observation and their excellent memory, they will recall facts and when necessary, bring them to the table at the time of need. They will win justly, with proper facts and arguments to support their thoughts and opinions. Scorpios are excellent at restoring order to a chaotic situation and they are just as capable of manipulating for their own greed and benefit. The un-evolved Scorpio is a very dangerous person because they use their powers to benefit only them and step on other people in order to satisfy their own greed. (Wooh I guess I'm evolved) =D
Scorpio Deep Inside:Scorpio is the most misunderstood of all astrology signs. They are all about intensity and contradictions. They like to be aware of a situation and always know what's going on, figuring this out with their probing mind, on the other hand, they are interested in the occult, the paranormal, conspiracy theories and other types of similar unknown mysteries. They are very capable of hiding their true feelings and motivations, they often have ulterior motives or a hidden agenda.
Scorpios are all about control, they need to be in control at all times. To be out of control is very threatening, even dangerous to the Scorpio's psyche, when they control, they feel safe.Scorpios are very emotional, their emotions are intensified, both good emotions and bad. Negative emotions of jealousy and resentment are hallmarks of this turbulent astrology sign. On the other side, Scorpios are well known for their forceful and powerful drive to succeed and their amazing dedication. Scorpios are constantly trying to understand their emotions through finding a deeper purpose in life.
Scorpios are very intuitive, but not as in a psychic sense, more as intuitive into the human mind, they have a great understanding of the mystery and the power of the human mind.
Scorpios have a fear of failure which they keep hidden extremely well, should their confrontation not be successful, or their career fail, they will simply use their adaptive skill to quickly move and and leave the bad experience behind. Do not ever expect them to fess up or share their tale with anyone however because this shows signs of weakness and Scorpio always wins, they are always the self-proclaimed best! One of the reasons they seem like they always accomplish their goals is because they set tangible short-term goals that they know they can accomplish, they know what they are capable of and this is what they go for.
Scorpios are very weary about trusting anyone, a person needs to gain their trust and this gets built up over time and once all the 'trust tests' have been passed, Scorpio loves deeply and intensely. Underneath the cool exterior, energies and emotions are constantly flowing but the Scorpio deals with this be channeling this into useful activities, hobbies, relationships or a career. This is never apparent to the outside observer but knowing this fact explains why Scorpios are so passionate about whatever it is that they are undertaking. Scorpios have powerful instincts and they trust their own gut feeling which is another reason why a Scorpio seldom fails in what they strive for.
The ongoing lesson in life for those born under the Scorpio zodiac signs, is to channel their powerful energy into positive goals and not succumbing to the darker forces in life such as manipulation and greed, they will then have great success in their life and have a clean, happy conscience and a circle of friends they can trust and hold dear to them.
Scorpio in a Nutshell:Scorpio is the astrology sign of extremes and intensity. Scorpios are very deep, intense people, there is always more then meets the eye. They present a cool, detached and unemotional air to the world yet lying underneath is tremendous power, extreme strength, intense passion and a strong will and a persistent drive. Scorpios have a very penetrative mind, do not be surprised if they ask questions, they are trying to delve deeper and figure things out and survey the situation. They always want to know why, where and any other possible detail they can possibly know. Scorpio's are very weary of the games that other people try to play and they are very aware of it. Scorpios tend to dominate and control anyone that lets them, or anyone that they find weak. The person that a Scorpio respects and holds close to them is treated with amazing kindness, loyalty and generosity. On the outside, a Scorpio has great secretiveness and mystery. This magnetically draws people to them. They are known to be controlling and too ambitious but only because they need control for this makes them feel safe.
Never be fake with a Scorpio, they can see it a mile away. Be genuine with your comments and listen to them attentively, (they always have something interesting to say so this is never a problem!) Do not try to hide things from them or tease them, they always have to know what is going on. Remember, they are the only ones that are allowed to tease and present the mystery and intrigue! They like frankness and honesty, speak your mind they will respect that. Scorpios are interested in almost all activities, so finding something to do should never be a problem. They are unpredictable and could change course of the date mid-way though so take these last minute changes with a smile and try something different. They like people who are not afraid to ditch a plan and try another. In conversation, do not tell them that their opinions are wrong or shoot them down, they are too proud for this and even if it is a joke, they might not take it with the humor that you meant. Never try to control them but do not be the damsel in distress either, they like strong, real people with driving ambitious personality like theirs.
Scorpios are observant.
Difference: I'm shy. Yes. I most certainly am. May not seem like it all the time, but seriously deep down, I'd be freaking out. Independent? Heck no =P I like to be around people but my quietness tends to give the wrong impression. Leader? Sometimes. Feels great, but only in my area of expertise. If I know I can't do it, I'd rather back down and let someone else go. I'm easily used.. and can be manipulated because sometimes I'm just blind to what's happening. Easily pressured into doing things I do not want to, but I do it for the sake of others anyway.
Overall, Scorpios are pretty scary :) But if you ever get to know one deeply then seriously, you're lucky because it's uncommon. There is not one single person that has reached deep within me. Not one. Not even my family... and to all those other scorpios out there, if you have someone that you can share everything with, you are soo lucky, and so is that other person :)
But yea.. damn Scorpios really are pretty fierce, but they're not bad either. Unless you're the un-evolved scorpio XD
Here's the links
New Zodiac?
So everyone's been hearing about the new zodiac thingo. What do you do? It's not that easy to change religions, and I believe people won't accept their new zodiacs and change their religions in a jiffy =)
So what do you do? I dunno actually, but many people are doing this, so I will to. Whoops I didn't say what "this" is. What is this? Basically, just stick with your original Zodiac (I'm a Scorpio) and add your new one (Libra for me) So when you decide to read your horoscope, remember to read the one above it too :) Unless you're those unique people that are born on the very first day of your Zodiac, which means instead of reading the one above you, read the one that's 2 up. Like Jess ;) Sexy Jess is one of those "unique" people, so instead of reading Scorpio + Libra, she reads Scorpio + Virgo :)
So... I shall try that out now... in my next post

...
My mum's friend... came up to me and told me her son died not long ago, due to bone cancer. I had no idea what to say.. I just stood there... looking at his photo.. and he seemed so.. alive..
He was born on the year 1992.. only 1 year older than me. If he was alive now, he would've graduated from high school. Seeing his mum, I know if I had the chance to met him, we would've got along fine..
I've realised in the past days, his mum kept on complimenting me.. like "Today you looked very pretty!" "Where are you going?" "Have you eaten?" etc.. after what she's told me about her son.. I guess.. ... I don't know how to explain it.. but yea. I'm hoping you'd understand what I'm trying to say :)
and yeah.. I just stood there.. staring at his school picture while she told me.. and when I looked at her.. her body language seemed like she was fine.. but ... her facial expression.. it's like.. I can't even describe it.. the pain she's going through.. loosing her son.. I think she understood that I couldn't say anything.. so she just smiled.. took his pictures and went back to do her job..
Everyday someone dies, and only a handful would know about it. Those handful would grieve, and the rest of the world would continue. But all in all, every single person would come across the feeling of.. this sadness. Of loosing someone they know, someone they love, someone they cherish. Whether we show it or not, we all feel the same. One day or another.. deep down.. its that same feeling.. of loosing someone. I don't even know him at all.. yet.. looking at his picture... and at his mum.. my chest feels like its being weighed down.. and I can't even imagine what his parents are going through.. just like I can't imagine when someone I cherish.. looses someone they love..
I'm just sitting here.. as time flies by.. staring at the screen.. I think it's nearly been an hour.. since I've started this post. And I apologise..for bringing back anyone's memory of the past..

Parkour #2
Short recap. Came there, did stretches.. and warmups. Girls and guys split up. Girls went with Cheng and the guys went with Ali. So I had no idea what they did, but I'm pretty sure it was at a way higher level :) We went and practiced vaults. Many different ways of jumping over obstacles. Did that for a while and my legs felt like breaking. Then we moved off to a different area, where we learnt and tried precision jumping.. (which I still fail because I'm scared of not making.. which I wasn't suppose to think like that) then we tried striding and jumping from one block to this.. huge thingo.. which was quite a far bit from the ground.. and learnt ways of getting down fast and safely, also smoothly and landing quietly. Then we tried getting up on the this ledge.. took me about.. 4 or 5 tries to get up.. more scratches :) After that we took our stuff and went over to some railings where we practiced balancing and walking on the railing.. then we joined up with the rest.. some more and final stretches and yea :)
Ok I think everyone finds that hardest part of each session.. if the warm up. Dammit Ali picked on me and I got punishment with 10 pushups, because I missed the circles when we weren't suppose to. They drew circles on the ground and we had to get across using them, and hey.. they were pretty far apart.. A LOT of other people missed.. but he only made me and this other guy get punishment.. slaaaacck!! hmph!
Yea.. today was alot better.. not as sore as the first time =) Overall, great. More scratches, a small blister on my thumb which popped.. and it stings XD and that's bout it! :P

Did stuff like this.. except the obstacle is about half the height :) |
The Secret Life
There's 2 versions so you can watch any. 1st is original and 2nd is an animated video response. Both made me shed tears at the end..

Gymnasium with Team 9Lives
Today... was.. epic..
But .. it was also a killer!! SERIOUSLY!! WHAT IS THIS!? after stretching and warm up.. we broke into groups of 6, and there was about 4-5 groups. I just joined with the lil guys from yesterday.. and holy.. we rolled on the floor.. did stuff... jumped alot.. climbed rope.. chin ups (20) which I only reached like.. 5? and Ali (instructor) help me get above the bar, but I had to let myself down slower.. big killer.. and I was still in pain from yesterday.. then.. we all went to the floor.. and.. OMG.. 10 sit ups.. roll right, 10 pushups, roll left and repeat til 1 (as in 10, 10, 9, 9, 8, 8,.... etc) then we did soooo many other workouts that i literally hardly moved.. ahahs then Ali comes up to me and he says "Come on Sophia! It's only the beginning" so I was like.. "what!?" I didnt know it went for 4 HOURS. I thought 2.. and it was only 30 minutes in the practice/training.. -sigh-
Soo... we started practicing running and jumping (the basics of tricks) then.. went into hand stand.. walking with hand stand (i skipped both that part since i couldn't do it) then rolly polly.. rolly polly +hand stand (I kinda did it with Ali's help) then cart wheel.. and more stuff to that. I was incredibly dizzy and felt like vomiting after each one.. then we went on to.. front flips.. and since i was beginner.. we went to this pit place and I failed miserably.. until the very end i perfected the runup, jump and turn in mid air.. but i cant land on my feet.. i landed on my arse AHAHA :) one time my elbow knocked my cheek bone.. ouch yea..
umm we went on to running and jumping over those big blocks of stuff and I couldn't do it so Ali had to take me away to a corner to fix what I was doing wrong.. and i found out I kept instinctively tucking my head in which made me fall to the side 'O.o so I was able to do that too.. but I needed more power on my jump to get me to the otherside. Met new friends too.. alot of new friends :) ahahas this is pretty good for boosting up my confidence and self esteem :) since there was like.. only 4 other girls there.. and the rest male dominated it.
Ummm I already practice running, jump, grab the bar and over the obstacle which was fun, but i twisted my wrist there.. no problem! I was back there after a few mins =) then i went to practice precision.. which was jumping basically, with both feet as far as i could.. i tried it on this block but that was major mistake.. twisted my ankle twice but it was alright i guess. Pain went away after a few minutes. So I went to practice that on the floor, trying to reach one tap marker after the next. Then pack equipment away.. stretching and yea. That was $25 for 4 hours. -sigh- and .. now with yesterdays pain and today's added pain.. I don't know if I can survive tomorrow.. 2 hours of parkour. like.. you know climbing walls and jumping over stuff and railings and balance etc. today in the gym was to practice flips to ADD to freerunning.. like.. running, jumping off a railing and doing a front flip and landing with a rolly polly etc.. yea..
But .. it was also a killer!! SERIOUSLY!! WHAT IS THIS!? after stretching and warm up.. we broke into groups of 6, and there was about 4-5 groups. I just joined with the lil guys from yesterday.. and holy.. we rolled on the floor.. did stuff... jumped alot.. climbed rope.. chin ups (20) which I only reached like.. 5? and Ali (instructor) help me get above the bar, but I had to let myself down slower.. big killer.. and I was still in pain from yesterday.. then.. we all went to the floor.. and.. OMG.. 10 sit ups.. roll right, 10 pushups, roll left and repeat til 1 (as in 10, 10, 9, 9, 8, 8,.... etc) then we did soooo many other workouts that i literally hardly moved.. ahahs then Ali comes up to me and he says "Come on Sophia! It's only the beginning" so I was like.. "what!?" I didnt know it went for 4 HOURS. I thought 2.. and it was only 30 minutes in the practice/training.. -sigh-
Soo... we started practicing running and jumping (the basics of tricks) then.. went into hand stand.. walking with hand stand (i skipped both that part since i couldn't do it) then rolly polly.. rolly polly +hand stand (I kinda did it with Ali's help) then cart wheel.. and more stuff to that. I was incredibly dizzy and felt like vomiting after each one.. then we went on to.. front flips.. and since i was beginner.. we went to this pit place and I failed miserably.. until the very end i perfected the runup, jump and turn in mid air.. but i cant land on my feet.. i landed on my arse AHAHA :) one time my elbow knocked my cheek bone.. ouch yea..
umm we went on to running and jumping over those big blocks of stuff and I couldn't do it so Ali had to take me away to a corner to fix what I was doing wrong.. and i found out I kept instinctively tucking my head in which made me fall to the side 'O.o so I was able to do that too.. but I needed more power on my jump to get me to the otherside. Met new friends too.. alot of new friends :) ahahas this is pretty good for boosting up my confidence and self esteem :) since there was like.. only 4 other girls there.. and the rest male dominated it.

City
Today I left the house at 9:55am.. rushed to fairfield station (cabra closed off for track working thingomabob) Met up with Megan, Jessica, Angela, Michee and Jolly :) Before the train came we bumped into Ariel!! She was going city with her bf XD
Summing it up cause I'm pretty dead tired now.. walked around.. we went to eat at.. pancake rock? I think that's what it was called.. food was DELICIOUS and pancakes was soo nice.. then we got the bill, and payed out part and boy.. I think that took bout 20-30mins working out how much to give in cause we were diving it and stuff... it was hilarious :)
We came out and there was the street entertainer! We watched him juggle 3balls, then 4 and then 5.. then he juggled knives, and he swallowed those long balloons to make animals 'O.o but I'm pretty sure there was a trick to it.. funny part was.. afterwards he said "Who wants to see me get it out!?" and I put my hands up (so did other people) saying "Mee!!" and he goes "You sick people" AHAHAS =)
Umm market place was closed so we went in and upstairs cause the other shops was open. Went to looks at shoes.. sadly I could not find one hat AT ALL. (well a plain cap that is..) and we went galaxy world!!! woooh it was niice ahehehe. went out.. I got cookies and cream. The guy that served Megan and I.. it was soo full that it was flooding over the sides xD
More walked.. umm Angela got her slushie at se7en and yea.. station back to fairfield.. by then it was 5:27 when we arrived... and my mum came.. i ran like crazy cause I had to get home and change for parkour :) so yea.. rushed home.. ran in the house.. took out random shorts and a loose t-shirt like singlet? and some joggers (I was wearing converse.. no grips) and ran back to the car and off I went. Met Stefani there who was there 30mins early than designated time!! ahahahas and yea :) Parkour stuff is in post after this .. as you can see =D
:O Forgot to mention.. I bought some anime. Well ONE anime.. ALL Studio Ghibli by Hayao Miyazaki!! 19 animes for $35. It was SOOO worth it. I watched about 6 in there, and I have 2 actual copies.. and those 2.. which I bought long ago.. costed me $25 EACH.. Now they're $15!! D: ahh well :) It's pretty dated animes but hey... No arguing if its STUDIO GHIBLI. Great story line :)

Parkour
WAS SIMPLY THE BEST!! I am so going to continue it for as long as I can (which is probably for ever) XD
Got some scratches.. bleeding finger and some inside bleeding.. you know those blood spots thingos underneath you skin? ahahas yeaaaa... seriously when I came there .. there was only 2 other girls, both in yr 9. And then when we were bout to leave, another girl (yr 8) came. The instructor thought me and Stiffy were in yr 8 or 9.. so she was pretty shocked when we said we were in yr 12 :D
The first thing we did.. was warm up.. and warm up like no other it was.. we jogged, jumped over this lil block, then they laid down this ladder like thingo.. and we did many many foot exercises with that.. then we practice running in long strides.. up and down the ramp, push ups, stretches etc. Then we practiced wall running/jumping.
Stiffy and I missed out the 2 first classes.. so we missed out the basic principals but we quickly learned that ;) and thats bout were I got all those injuries, but Stefani had a lot more. Her first injury was because she was wearing her rings.. and the ridge of that wall block was pretty rough, but we both managed to get hold of the edge, and I managed to get up on it, with a lil help from the female instructor =) Started raining harder.. so we went down and practiced jumping over railings and etc.. and yea XD 2 hours of hardcore physical work LOL. my arms and legs are killing.. my arms feel like the after pain of wrestling with Kitty!! They asked as to come tomorrow to the school next to ours -> the gymnasium. Something about using the equipment.. trampolines.. jumps.. tricks.. twists iunno.. but it's $25 so I shall be going too.. that means my mum has to drive me back and forth.. 3 days in a row.. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (only for this month) I am soooo pumped to tmr and I hope Stefani can come :) My mum lets because its good exercise and I'm so lazy I dont even exercise anymore.. and .. YEA it was HECTIC and AWESOME.. and they said I'm a natural cause I was learning so fast ;)
Overall.. I left the house at 9:55am for city.. and came home at 8:27pm. Dead tired.. sore muscles and everything.. and off I go again tomorrow and Thurs.. 'O.o All worth it though :)

Awaiting next week because 2 things are happening ;) and I still need to plan one more event soon.. I know its going to happen but I can't be bothered setting a date at the moment =D Soon...

:O
I need a hat. I must get my hands on one. Mmmmm and I think I'm gonna go look for a white one. No not hat.. more like a cap :) idk maybe both who cares lmao. Something to sit on my head.
Oh yes.... D: I don't have a fringe anymore =) My mum wants to to grow it long again.. so if there's any occasion she would have various more ways to play with my hair. So now I just tied back my fringe and join it with the rest of my hair.. and then when that "used-to-be" fringe grows long, I shall go to a good hairdresser and ask them what style matches my face with my hair down.. at the moment, my forehead looks very :)
Went Westfield shopping with my mum. She bought 6 clothes and I bought 2 shirts. Well.. one shirt and one tank top. And we had 2 hours to shop.. not enough time lmao. I still need to get myself a singlet and some more shorts/pants. Seems like I'm wearing the same thing when I go out D: Shall buy those stuff next time I'm out maybe. Hopefully they're not expensive where I'm going :)

ADF and 9Lives
You guys remember how I said I'm going to go for the ADF gap year in 2012 yeah?
Mmm.. reconsidering... more like.. I made up my mind about not going. Why? Ahahas I know I have a slim chance of making it in. 2010.. Over 4000 applicants.. only 400 was selected. My chances are very slim because I do not have a reasonable BMI, I'm too short (by 2 cms) and I have medical conditions. (i.e asthma and skin conditions..) so who wouldn't choose an applicant perfectly healthy over someone like me? No this isn't low self belief or something. It's the truth and I've accepted that, so instead of going after something thats far beyond my reach, I'll preserve that dedication to other things :)
Stefani is joining 9Lives I think, or registering for it I'm not sure about how it works, but she's asked me to join her so I'd gladly partake that :) Must read more info about 9Lives and joining.
Edit: Ok so Stefani has booked and she's going tomorrow (Thurs 6 Jan) It's a bit too early for me so I'll go next week Tuesday, that's if my parents let. I know my mum will let but I'm not sure about dad. Hopefully he lets.. because I'm not gonna be lonely =)
There a lot of things I've been wanting to ask/tell certain people, but I guess I shouldn't. I shall see how things go =)

Damn you :D
I hate you. When ever you're around me, you make me loose confidence. You bring down my self esteem and you make me hide my true self from others. Can't you see how happy I am when you're gone? But then you just keep coming back. Why? Is it that fun seeing me fall apart? If you never existed, I know I wouldn't have these bad attitude.. I know I would've been able to live more freely without worrying about your next move. Please. Go away. Don't come back. You don't realise how hard it is to get rid of you because you don't listen. Accept the truth already. No one likes you. No.One.Likes.You. So leave. Disappear and let me show everyone who I truly am.. because with you.. I'm never myself.. and no one will ever see the real me.. if you never existed.. I would never have been ridiculously shy.. ...
That's right.. go away and give me back my normal skin..

Beach/fishing
It was a nice experience =) If only my grandma and Aunt came along.. she was fighting and putting up a smile when we were leaving and when my dad drove off, I glanced over and the smile wasn't.. dammit all because my granny was lazy.. jeeze..
So... on the car there, Cookie started breathing really REALLY fast and it got us all worried. Either she was excited, scared, stressed or need fresh or (aircon can affect her) Actually I think it was all of it rofls.
Mmmm at the beach? It was lovely!! I didn't want to swim and I couldn't anyway. All my swimsuits are too small >.< And DAMN there was HEAPS of dogs! All off leash ;) So I let my dog off leash and she got harassed my a few huge male dogs. That was hilarious =) Down to the beach we went and my dog was scared of water.. last time I took her to a beach bout 7-10months ago, she wouldn't go near it. Now? She went in after me. Cookie just blindly ran in and it got a bit deeper... and she still followed me.. until all you can see was her head so.. she was swimming! She loves it now rofls. Keeps coming back and I have to dry her again and again. Couldn't fish because the wind was blowing towards the land so.. yea. We caught LOADS of clams.. the edible ones. I think they were Rebury Butter Clams (not much.. bout 10 of those) and a whole heap of Manila Clams (About 2 bags full) and this other that I can't find the name. The pointy ones :) My cousin ben also found about 4 massive ones that look like mussels but triangular. I dunno what its called in English. Parents know it in viet. So yea. Overall.. we got about... 4 bags full of that stuff.. Big feast tomorrow 'O.o Now I shall wait for my turn to shower and sleep. Not impressed that my legs, half my arms and my chest is tanned or something, but its definately darker ==' Looks like all those sunscreen didn't work D:
[Pictures of clams/shells will be up tmr. So tired. Sleeping now] XD
