The Hunger Games

is a deliciously addicting series of novels to read!

As thrilling as Malorie Blackman's Noughts and Crosses series, centred around political oppression and the hunger for justice.

An easy read but beautifully scripted which moves me to tears at some parts and sends adrenaline coursing through my veins at others.

Sigh....the awkward moment when you're done reading a really good book and realise your life is over.

And no, I have not watched the movie yet.

Erik's so adorable!

Yes, I do understand that he is a fictional penguin and real ones smell funny.

Anyway, I've been addicted to the song 'Under Pressure' by Queen. I heard it first from the musical 'We Will Rock You' and 'Happy Feet 2' before I heard the original. They are all awesome.

Um boom ba de, um boom ba da de

And just because these lyrics....

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word

And love dares you to care for,

The people on the edge of the night,

And loves dares you to change our way of,

Caring about ourselves,

This is our last dance,

This is our last dance,

This is ourselves.

...are so much better than these...

If you cute than your crew can roll

If you sexy eat my Koo-Koo-Roo

Put ya cape on, you a super hoe

2012, Im at the superbowl

Stupid hoes is my enemy

stupid hoes is so wack

Stupid hoe shoulda befriended me

Then she coulda prolly came back!

Where'd all the love go?

Communication

...is one of the many keys to a good relationship, ANY relationship.

Do NOT expect people to read your minds, no matter how truly close you are.

I mean, does this even make any sense:
"My boyfriend should know today is our 150th day anniversary. Why isn't he buying me flowers? *whine*"

Girls, don't expect your man to magically understand your feelings because...they just DON'T

Male pride gets in the way sometimes as well:
"She should well know I hate it when she talks to that guy. But I'm just gonna simmer in my own anger until she uses her telepathic powers to see that I'm upset"

Boys, we aren't psychic! We're not gonna know what's bothering you unless you tell us!

Don't we all wish we'd empathise and understand each other via skin to skin osmosis diffusion. That'll make life so much simpler.

I'm not one to truly understand another person's situation or reasons. Understanding just does not come that easily to me. I believe me my mind is, despite being 2 decades old, slightly under-ripe and immature. Confusing as some matters can be, we've just gotta learn to accept, have FAITH and move on.

Facebook posts that weirds me out!

Recently, I saw a wall post describing a facebooker's faecal consistency...And that was the last straw! I had to get this issue out of my system. Therefore, I present to you my...

LIST OF FACEBOOK POSTS THAT WEIRDS ME OUT

1) Of course, the one which describes daily faecal consistency

"Hm...Tis slightly runny and yellowish today. May I have your medical opinion, fellow facebookers?"

2) Description of nasal mucus and phlegm resulting from a cold which includes the colour and viscosity...urgh

"Aiya, why so green and sticky de! Oh no, it's all over my hand!! Aiyo, I accidentally ate some!!!"

3) Revelation of most recent disease despite the need to keep it secret to prevent nauseating the public. e.g. diarrhea, act of emesis, phlegm producing coughs

"I've got explosive diarrhoea! Help me...><"

No, my ex-facebook friend, I'd rather not.

4) The need to tell the world that one is suffering from minor ailments. E.g. runny nose, sore throat, a simple cold...However, have yet to seen one about athlete's foot or genital thrush. Have they still got a little bit of shame in them to reveal that? Will be waiting for that post.

"Oh my, I have a slight fever of 0.2 degrees. Somebody, quick! Leave me comments dripping with pity!"

5) Posting the same camwhored pictures of oneself. A few is absolutely fine. But after the millionth one, I suppose it's safe to say you're not very imaginative. You know the one.

6)The one when a greeting (e.g. birthday) is directed towards a person who is NOT a facebook user.

"To my beloved great great grandmother (who probably won't even know this greeting existed), Happy Birthday and I love you!"

The world of facebook has liberated our minds (and mouths) to announce every little detail in our lives. If facebook was brought to real life, it'll probably go something like this...

You're sitting in the middle of class. You felt an itch in your nose. You blow your nose onto a piece of tissue and hold it at arms length to observe. Without hesitation, you shout "Hey guys! My snots slimy with a tinge of green. What should I do?" And then you sit back down and wait for your various pals to inject you with a dose of sympathy.

Ah...I feel better now.

Please take note. Yours truly is not trying to offend anyone in particular. My sincere apologies to those who believe this post is purposefully aimed at someone such as yourself. And also my deepest sympathy.

LoLs!

L: Excuse me, is the line of the graph supposed to be straight or curved?
Demonstrator: Well, you're drawing a calibration CURVE. What do YOU think?
L: So, it's a curve then? (ready to walk off...)
Demonstrator: No, the graph should be a straight line.

*moment of silence* o.O

L: So, the graph's gonna have a straight line?
Demonstrator: Yes
L: So, it's a calibration CURVE with a straight line...
Demonstrator: *pause* Yes. (with an air of confidence)
L: ... *shrug* 'mkay...

Funny things, us humans...

Well well, basically only a couple of actually VIEW my blog and Terry's insisted on an update, so....here's to you Terr...!! Official dedication to my truest fan! Have a Caramel Latte Macchiato on the house! Oh, I know you love the publicity!

oh...hear the sweet heaven of angels sing.....Thou art more creamy and smooth~

It's the third day into my Christmas holidays which gives me time to bore you with the usual tales of my most exciting moments. I've got to say, this term has been one heck of a self-realisation course. I realised I actually suck at sports, I can't touch electronic items without them bursting in flames (my brand new ipod here is proof, along with my laptop, and most recently, my friend's laptop!), oh and...I not only have 1 friend who beats me in EVERYTHING I thought I was good at, but TWO freakin' friends!

Fuh..now that that's all out, wanna see some pretty pictures I found? *Grins widely, almost eerily*

These, I gotta say, are pretty cool~

I've come to appreciate SURREAL art as well!

Pirate marshallows!!

And this is how sun-maid raisins are made! It's good for ya, kiddies!

Plenty more where that came from but...I'll give it a rest now. So, what about my personal life, I hear u ask.. Or maybe not...but hey, I'm the writer. You're just the poor sod who has nothing better to do but read blogs. No offence...

I finally have access to internet, obviously...woohooo!! I'm kicked out of school and most of my friends have gone back to their home countries (leaving me to rot alone here *sob*). I have a huge test coming up after this holiday which I find really hard to care about. Oh dear God, help me. All I want to do is sit on a cozy couch with a warm fuzzy blanket and fluffy pillows as I glue my eyes to the television screen showing Christmas premiers. On top of that, I want a cup of steaming hot chocolate topped with marshallows and cream and a bag of crisps at arms length. Sigh....

Last week, I was forced to buy a dress (Jane Norman dress for 40 pounds!) for the Cabaret dinner which I doubt I'd ever wear again. It'll make a lovely present for my mommy when I go back next summer. The dinner was great though, not the food (which was a load of cold dishes) but the performances. Students here are just dripping with musical talent and they were just so amazing to watch. As loyal as I am to Methodist School's choir, I doubt they'd be able to compete with the weekly chapel choir here.

Anyway, I'm starting to bore myself now...Ergo, you must be bored. Until next time, tune in to the magical wonders of MY BLOG!

Oh...and here's something bizzarely cute to eye on....

Pon and Zi

Right...every lobe in my brain has been arguing back & forth on whether I should make this post. I guess the frontal lobe has lost on account you're sitting here reading my irrationally made decision to post it up!

Last year, I came across this adorable thing on a friend's display picture on msn...

A few days later, he changed it into this little guy

I figured I shouldn't be a copycat and steal his ideas to use these ADOWABLY KiiiioooOOoot *snuggles* um...thing as my display pictures. A year later....I find myself compulsively searching the internet (thank God for technology!) and ending up with almost 100 different pictures of PON AND ZI (that's their names!).

Here's a few of my favourites...

"Ron! This is perfect for ya, cuz!"

"Gah! Feel the lurve~ people!!"

"AwwWWww"

"Can't you just feel ur heart growing all fuzzy and warm !"(mould infection, i hear u ask?)

"Oh, who am I kidding?! I love 'em all!!!"

"I'd still want him (or her *shrug* who can tell) to be my doctor!"

"Falling for you. D'u get it? D'u get the picture? Smart ain't it..."

"I love gummi bears!"

Appreciation should go to Jeff Thomas who created these 2 little...er...things.

Seriously, even if I may seem tough and intimidating on the outside, I'm actually a real softie with a sweet personality...I'm your regular girl-next-door who adores sweets, cookies and blueberry muffins. I enjoy pretty flowers and make lovely cards for people on their birthdays. My motives are innocent, I love surprises and I adore chocolates. Ooo...and I oh-so-love teddy bears!

~REALLY LONG PREGNANT PAUSE~

Bwahahahahahaha!!!!! *INHALES deeply* wahahahahaha!!!!! Okay, who believed that?! Seriously! Fess up! Sweet...innocent motives.....wahahhaa!!!
