The Statue.

[ July 2, 2009 ]





Oh, guess what? My beloved 羅志祥 is becoming so famous, to the extent that the Shanghai Museum has made him his own personal statue. Although the statue doesn't exactly look like him, but you can roughly tell who it's supposed to be. Come on, his trendy hairstyle just gives everything away. Whoa, absolutely stunning!

One Day Later.

[ July 1, 2009 ]



It has been quite some time since I've actually done some shopping. Because of the birthday money that I got from my older sister, I was able to make several purchases today. I dragged Amanda along, hoping that she'd accompany me for the day. My mum drove us to the Rivers store as they were having a 70% sale. Despite the fact that the prices were still pretty expensive, my mum was pretty determined to buy me a pair of comfortable shoes. Although it was at 70% off, it cost a total of $39.95 AUD. Whoa?!

Next, we headed down to the nearest licensing centre to apply for the 'Proof Of Age' card. It cost me a total of $25.00 AUD to get the card made. When the photograph of my card was taken, I realised that I looked terribly weird in it. It was probably very modest of my mum to insist that I looked fine. According to the guy at the desk, it will be arriving in the mail around a week's time. How exciting, really can't wait!

On another note, both me and Amanda went shopping at Carousel today, and ended up buying a few things. Several items were a bargain, while others were just averagely priced. Yay, new additions to my wardrobe.

Here's a little sneak peek if you're interested:




[Hedgehog-Checkered Jacket: $20.00 AUD]




[Slogan Shirt: $20 AUD]




[Rivers Shoes: $39.95 AUD]




[Sheer Pantyhose: $5.95 AUD]




[Boho Headbands: $6.95 AUD]




[Butterfly Headband: $4.95 AUD]


Hopefully, I'll be getting more birthday money so that I can do more shopping. You know what? I actually miss the fun and joy of online shopping. The feeling of receiving a parcel from the mail is just like a mystery. You'll never know which item will arrive first, and what it actually looks like in real life. On top of that, there's also the fun that you may possibly get from ripping open the parcel. Ahh, those were the memories!

Happy Birthday To Me!

[ June 30, 2009 ]




(From left to right: Jacky Cheung, Show Luo!)


Happy 18th Birthday to me! Despite the fact that it's my birthday, it still feels like a normal and typical day. The only difference is probably the huge amount of comments received on Facebook, heaps of text messages and nice birthday hugs from all those who care. Yay, I feel tremendously lucky to have my birthday remembered by most of my friends! Surprisingly enough, there were so many people competing to be the first to wish me a very happy birthday. But obviously, there was only one winner - - > Amanda Lim.

She called at 11.59 pm and waited until 12 to wish me a Happy Birthday.


I would sincerely like to thank all those people who have taken some effort to wish me a Happy Birthday. Seriously, you have made my day bright and cheery. Here are the people that I would like to mention:

On top of that, I would deeply like to thank my family for their birthday gifts. My parents gave me $200 for my Taiwan/Singapore holiday fund. On the other hand, my older sister gave me $100 for shopping funds. My aunty is sponsoring $70 for my birthday party. Last but not least, my younger sister decided to offer me 24 episodes of her beloved 'Goong' as a birthday present. How cute is that? Look, it's a present that doesn't require any money to be spent. That's heaps smart!

Being 18 for me means that I'm no longer a teenager, but an adult. I'm finally legal to do so many things, such as drink alcohol, enter clubs, smoke cigarettes and get married without consent. But personally, I definitely won't be doing any of these 'legal' activities any time soon. It's just like another milestone for me, and something of a great significance. You know what? Somehow, I feel pretty old now.

20th Wedding Anniversary.

[ June 6, 2009 ]





I'm feeling really terrible at the moment, as I've come down with several symptoms of influenza. This includes fever, runny nose, sore throat, loss of voice, coughing and headache. Despite the fact that I've been sick for the past two days, I still headed to work as per normal. During my shift, I managed to suppress my sneeze at least 25 times in total. Gosh, it felt as though I was going to die from the uncomfortableness. Ergh!

On a side note, my family attended the Woodford's 20th Wedding Anniversary dress-up party at the Iris Bar and Restaurant today. My mum dressed up as a Vietnamese lady, my dad as an Engineer, me as a schoolgirl, and my younger sister as a Taekwondo expert. Some people were wearing pretty interesting costumes: Egyptian, Mickey Mouse, Policeman, NCIS staff and nun. By the way, I managed to make friends with Matt's sister and his cousin. As we plan to hang out together in future, we ended up exchanging contact numbers.







Yes, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you! My hands were handcuffed together with Olivia's, and she wouldn't let me run free. I had to follow her wherever she went. Digressing, I saw Joseph at the Woodford's 20th Wedding Anniversary dress-up party! He was dressed as Mickey Mouse, and won the top prize for the best costume. Whoa, congratulations on winning. (Aww, I wish I had a picture of his costume to show you.)

Hmm, the Wedding Anniversary dress-up party was fun, or shall I say, 楽しかった? The best part was making new friends, and catching up with old ones again. To conclude this blog entry, I would like to wish Uncle Gary and Aunty Anne a very Happy 20th Wedding Anniversary. Stay happy and true to each other, yeah?

Happy Birthday Francisco!

[ June 5, 2009 ]



This is a short blog entry, dedicated to a very special friend:

Dear Francisco,

Happy 19th Birthday!
It has been around 3 months since we've first become friends.
However, it seems as though we've been friends for a very long time.
I guess we just get along with each other pretty well aye?
Thank you for all the happy times and memories.
(Ayumi #2, cam-whoring, fooling around, pointless laughing...etc.)
Unfortunately, there wouldn't be enough space for me to name it all.
Anyway, I hope you had fun hanging out with me at Timezone today.
Taking pictures, playing arcade games, and eating, eating, eating.
Hope this birthday will be better than your previous ones.
PS: I wish that your dream of going to Japan will come true soon.
Love you, xoxoxoxo.

♥ Marie

Thank You For The Memories

[ June 4, 2009 ]





Oh gosh, I almost stuffed up both my Japanese reading/writing tests today. First mistake: I failed to read the instructions before starting the paper. It stated that all answers should be written in English, but I wrote everything in Japanese instead. To my relief, おやませんせい was nice enough to allow me to redo the test! Unfortunately, I don't think I did very well, considering the fact that the nerves really got to me this time.

As planned, me and Francisco headed down to Fremantle as soon as our Japanese class ended. I decided to celebrate his 19th birthday with him, a day before the actual day. It was a simple outing, mainly for us to have loads of fun. Our destination was Timezone, where our 'mission' was to take heaps of sticker photos from the booth. As you might have already guessed, that was the first thing we did.















Having fun in the stimulator, taking pictures, playing Dance Dance Revolution, eating waffles with mango ice-cream, playing Mario Kart, winning toys from the Skill Tester...etc.


There are so much beautiful memories accumulated in just one day, and it's definitely something to be remembered. We spent most of the day laughing for no apparent reason, only because we wanted to make this day as enjoyable as it can possibly get. And guess what, we did end up having a blast. Yay! ♥

Narcissistic?

[ June 2, 2009 ]



After a long weekend break, it's back to the usual Japanese lessons at TAFE. Gosh! On a side note, I haven't been studying for the past few days. This time, I'm proud to state that procrastination is not to be blamed for. From Friday to Monday, I've been slogging my guts at work to earn enough money for my upcoming Taiwan trip. How dedicated am I, to my one and only dream? Unfortunately, this probably means that I have to find some spare time to brush up on my Japanese language so that I can be fluent in it in the near future!

Enough of all the boring information. Let's just move to something more interesting, or shall I say, おもしろい? Well, my 18th birthday is coming up in a few weeks, exactly 28 days to be specific. The problem is, I don't know what to do for my birthday party! Some excellent ideas are running through my head, but I still need more suggestions from the public. It would be greatly appreciated if you could provide ideas for some interesting activities that we could do. Thank you in advance.



Needless to say, me and Francisco were being narcissistic today. We weren't really bothered by the stares that we got when we were taking pictures of ourselves on the train/at the bus stop. After all, there's more to life than worrying about what people think. For example, having fun. At least we enjoyed ourselves aye?

I'll stop here for now, because it's really important that I start studying for my Japanese role-play test tomorrow. I really don't want to fail, because that will definitely affect my parents' trust in my ability to do well. Hopefully, I can continue to make my ever-so-loving parents proud of my achievements. Now, and in the future. Chyeah!
