Right now I am lying one the couch with my little brother lying on the floor while watching cartoons in the TV. What a life and I miss this part of me where I can just lie down and not feel guilty about touching my books and studying.
Holiday so far has pretty much been a holiday. Angeline and I finally had a bbq courtesy of Papa for letting us having bbq for two days straight. Whats more exciting about coming home this year is that our family moved to a new town this year so our home is different but still felt like a home but the city might I add, is much bigger than the town that we lived in so more suburbs means more adventures.
One the week of our return, my little brother turned 14 and we celebrated his birthday with close family and friends. I have to still grasps the idea that my little brother is no longer a young boy but is a growing man on the other hand, Him with his adolescent behavior made me walk down memory lane with my own misbehavior when I was a teenager not so long ago and I apologize for my misbehavior that occurred a few years ago.
Anyhooos. I started walking exercising either with Papa or my older sister since last week. First day: pant.pant.
Second day: okay.okay
Third day: amazing~!
Considering it is summer, I would like to look after my exercise more often considering that I have nothing much to do before summer school anyways.
I can't think of anything much now but I'll try to update my blog more often. But good news for me, I passed all of my papers for second semester!!!!! Even history paper and that is why this self-quote is true:
Today I thank God for the sunny weather, life and the patients he had 4 me. We often fail to take responsibility 4 our own lives by blaming others for misguiding us on our own mistakes simply because its easier to blame others and not c wat u hav done wrong. Some1 told me 2 start taking responsibility and I did.I thank you u 4 sayin that 2 me because my goals and dreams are closer now than ever.

Endless work + sleep

Oh where did Mr Studymode go? With exams just around the corner, one can't help but feel this sense of panic on attending the exams. Please come back, Mr Studymode, we need you now...

One have to thank for Saturday and God for the lovely weather that He has given on this lovely day. With the aim to study, I lasted merely three hours before I decided to just watch Shining Inheritance for the last remaining few hours. The drama I have to say doesn't really compare to King of Baking, Kim Tak Goo whom I have to say such a lovely drama that can touch your hearts in more ways than one.
Anyhows, going back on track, this week finally summarised what a student life is about~study. Monday was dedicated to handing my POLS103 and our group presentation for Ling112 while Tuesday was dedicated to ASIA201. Wednesday above any other day was dedicated to JAPA132 and our presentation worth 20%. Hence suprise to what I did next because I am the type of person who relish on sleeping for more than eight if possible ten hours and sleeping for five to six hours doesn't fit my personality because I slept like a sloth not caring about the world commencing from Wed 5.30pm to Thurday 11.30am. After that wonderful beauty sleep, its amazing how clear your head can be and how exciting you feel after that long sleep~ sweet relief. hehhe XD

After that, the days went on without any recognition on my part. So hopefully studying could commence back from Sunday tomorrow.

Aside from that, Mel our friend and exciting future flatmate came to stay with my sister and my two cousins for the past two days so it was nice catching up with her. Also today I made steamed banana cake whic was more than what I expected. So look forward to making that again in the future because it seems like a future popular cake. Hehehe

Yesterday~ us girls did some girling by dressing up by wearing floral dresses and and did our hair and makeup and after a few nervous smiles, we had fun and boy we did. But I'll blog about that next time~ Till next time

Two Hot Chocolate Please

Who do we love to connect with but the people we love? Today I had another busy day at University but fortunately I finished early today ~ at 3pm...jealous kkkk. My last class, which was my Japanese tutorial and what I have to say about my quiz in class was, Good Luck miss Jenn... The particles have never been my best friend in Japanese but I will work hard so that I can do well in them. My last quiz went okay so I'm hoping that I'm not going to be disappointed.
After my long day of studying during the day, my cousin and I went to check the new cafe Good Earth Cafe (located in front of St Davids Lecture Theater) and decided catch up on each other while trying their hot chocolate (break from coffee) and Lamb and feta sausage with Polenta. Waiting for the menu to brought to our table, I had to say I love the atmosphere of the cafe. Debuted today at 8am, the cafe was full when I went to my 9am lecture and at thats moment on I decided to follow the wave of students parading in front of the cafe.

With the romantic theme of colourful flowers spread around the cafe, the canvas chandelier sphere fitted perfectly with the white painted wall of this tiny building. Once was known as the ever boring dull bookstore (I love going to bookstore but that particular bookstore really make you not want to go to a bookstore) it transformed to a cafe that will have a bright future ahead of them. The staff are fun-loving with their nervous smiles given to their customers hoping to please each and everyone of them. Guys, don't worry, I have a feeling that you will do particularly well in this area. First of all students need the comfort of coffee and a solidarity place to chat with their friends and family about anything. And I have to say 9/10 for this cafe.
"Can I please have one lamb and feta sausage and 2 hot chocolate please?'
Chocolate ~ Wonderfully executed. The sweetness of the drink and the milkiness of the drink is right on the spot. With two soft marshmallows beside this more than an average cup of chocolate for that price, added the extra sweetness to the drink. One thing I learnt when I added my two wonderful marshmallow into my dreamy hot chocolate is that to NOT add the marshmallows in at all. The sweetness increased and I had trouble finishing the drink. Beside that, the drink was perfect.
Future order ~ Hot mocha
"Should we share the sausages between the two of us?"
The sausages which was lamb was okay. Not great but its enough to satisfy. The polenta, what can I say ~ not a favourite of feta or polenta, I told my cousin to finish the meal for me. But I have to forgive them despite the failure in excuting the meal. Future order ~ Morrocan Chicken (please don't fail me)
The main ingredient in having a perfect lunch out with someone ~ the lovely company of your friends and family.
Not matter where you go for a quick catch up ~ A lunch out in the park, in an office or even just walking to the closest dairy shop to get ice creams together just remember to cherish every moment you share together with that person. I'm always greatful that no matter how alone I am in my classes, my bunnies (my girlfriends) never seem to fail me. They are always waiting around the corner for me just as I am with them just for a quick chat before or after another class.
Overall results ~ This pit stop to taste the first coffee flavour for this blog is a success.
Everyone, I will try my best to appreciate you all with all my heart even more so please be patient and continue to look after me please. 私は勉強すると私は私の人生の道を歩く人を大切に継続されます。してください私の後、当時の人に見て

To you.

Thank you for your 'effort' and for 'everything you've done for me'. Just something for the people out there for making the effort to like me and then leave me. I had a friend who I was really close with since the day I met him but then that friendship relationship was lost because... well I myself not even sure. I truly felt that he was my brother. However, I mention, 'friend' to him and he went weird on me. Every night I would text him good night and he stopped texting me back. When he text me, he would say he hasn't talked to me for a long time. Whatever. LOser. Then a couple of days ago he had a nerve to text me saying that he is talking about me. NEWS FLASH! You mess with the wrong girl baby! A couple years back, I would get really bothered by what people say about me. The constant talk about you tend to make you paranoid. But I'm better than that now. I want you to talk about me. Talk. Talk. Talk. I don't care anymore. You talk for your own insecurity. You talk to make yourself feel better. You talk because you freaking envy me. So just keep talking about me because I know I'm hot issue to you to ease your own flaws. Burn baby burn

Picture To Burn"

State the obvious, I didn't get my perfect fantasy
I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy
That's fine you won't mind if I say
And by the way...

[Chorus:]

I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned you're
Just another picture to burn

There's no time for tears,
I'm just sitting here planning my revenge
There's nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying sorry to me
My daddy's gonna show you how sorry you'll be

[Repeat Chorus]

If you're missing me,
You'd better keep it to yourself
Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health...

I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
In case you haven't heard,
I really really hate that..

[Repeat Chorus]

Burn, burn, burn, baby, burn
You're just another picture to burn
Baby, burn...

Holiday so far...

Holiday so far has been...

• Relaxing
• Relaxing
• Relaxing

I had to admit. I was panicking during my first release after the last exams on the 19th June when the thought of not doing anything or any study for more than a day came to me on the 20th June. What to do. What. To. Do?

That was the question. For the first couple of days, I pretty much spend my time pondering on what to do during the holidays. With my flatmates away for the holidays and my cousins aways as well, I spend my holiday time with my sister Ange and Yim.

We first celebrated our holiday with a session to the sauna. My first official sauna session and I have to admit, I liked it. I suffered for the first couple of minutes but then you get use to the heat and the healthy sweat coming out of your body. It was refreshing. And it started to feel like the holidays.

Although not alot of things happened in my holidays for 2010, I can't complain because I did what I always wanted to do, be in comfy clothes and just no worry about what I look. I love this life. The holiday offered me what I wanted as well, not having to stress about what to do and what will happen for that day. That I thank God for.

So what am I'm doing right now?

Blogging while watching tv. How often do I get to do that during my study? ... Never!

-Priceless

Exams period.

Stress. Stress. Stress. Its time of the year again where we all are slapped with the harsh reality of the real reason why we are at Uni. Examination Time. My cousin and I had a taste of this virus yesterday, where we had our first unofficial exams for a paper in Otago.
Sleeping in her room for the past couple of days due to studying together and staying at their flat where at times we don't step out of the house reminded me a little bit of how stressful yet comforting on how student life is.
As we were walking and running through the answers on the footpath,I felt calm and positive that everything will run smoothly. It did run better than I expected but what suprised me was how I nearly had a panic attack while waiting outside for my turn. I don't usually get panic attacks so that was a first for me. So with that said, good luck for all and pray that we all get satisfactory and above results!
Ganbatte!Fighting!

New feeling

Lately I have been feeling sad. I couldn't put my finger on why exactly I feel like that. Sometimes I feel like when I'm not stress, I should feel stress and I stress for not feeling stress.
I once asked a friend if he felt like this as well and he just casually said no. So with this said, it made me wonder...Sometimes do we create situations for ourselves because we are afraid of happiness.

When situations are looking to the positive areas of life, we all fear of that particular happiness be taken away from all of us. This could be due to the face of having to start and search for new happiness. Like the saying says:

'When another door closes, another door opens.'

However that door that opens will have to be locked first. Hence the searching part begins. We get this feeling of sadness and suddenly feels like the world is absolutely against us by wanting to prevent us from happiness.
Whichever you look at it, just remember that the effort that we take to look for that 'open door' is worth the effort because we grow and experience life lessons that we hope to remember for future reference.

Sometimes I can't help but feel sad for those who cling onto the negative aspects of the situation and all they do is just really focus on those negatives. Just remember that we all struggle through life but if faith and hope you cling to, then by all means, start thinking that there is something good that will appear right after. So people just be patient and don't let go of our belief of a brighter side

Just Surviving

After long weeks and several months of hibernation, I have finally come out of my rehab and now will hopefully be continuing in regularly updating my blog.

With the constant quizzes every week for Japanese and satisfactory results for them, I have accomplished four tests so far and will have another one added to it the day after tomorrow.

Arghhh! I don't know how I will actually survive.

With constant lovable Japanese studies every single day for uncountable amount of hours, my poor Chemistry and Linguistics (no empathy by writer) are neglected by this me
With that said, I have this weird peace, blue cloud hanging over my head. Somehow I feel that I should be stressed but with that said, I'm begging myself to get wrinkles so I should be grateful that I am not stress.


I am looking forward for this Easter break coming up soon. A. Week. Wow. A week without going to lectures and tutorials and a week of sudden adventures.

With me flatting and cooking meals to ease my hunger, I am aiming in achieving more baking in the holidays and more cooking experiments as well. So starting soon I will try to post cooking recipes that are success and hmmm not so as well.
Stay in touch my fans

Memoir

Its been a while since I've written a blog. (very sorry but so am busy with Facebook that I unconsciously forgotten about you TT)
With the break gotten from work officially from last Friday, my days have been filled with relaxation and relaxation.
The long awaited trip is nearly coming close to starting officially on Saturday along with the ride on the bus on Friday.
But first, Nicholas's birthday this Thursday!!!! Yeayea!!!
I'm so excited!!!!
But with me going this weekend, sadly to say, I haven't been packing.
Oh well.
I'm hoping that its under 20kg. I hope so. My clothes are not the problem, its the presents. So many things want to get for my family but with that mass allowance, I can't help but sacrifice some souvenirs for some people.
SOrry!!!!
But again I'm excited to see everyone and to EAT! and SHop! and do ASian stuff since I'm an Asian and am proud of it! LOL
(lots of and don't you think?)
Bun-bun going now to say that I've got my tickets today and flying.
So take care of me!

Meet me on the Equinox
Meet me half way
When the sun is perched at it's highest peek
In the middle of the day

Let me give my love to you
Let me take your hand
As we walk in the dimming light
Or darling understand

That everything, everything ends
That everything, everything ends

Meet me on your best behavior
Meet me at your worst
For there will be no stone unturned
Or bubble left to burst

Let me lay beside you, Darling
Let me be your man
And let our bodies intertwine
But always understand

That everything, everything ends
That everything, everything ends
That everything, everything, everything ends

A window
An opened tomb
The sun crawls
Across your bedroom
A halo
A waiting room
Your last breaths
Moving through you

As everything, everything ends
As everything, everything ends
As everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything ends

Meet me on the Equinox
Meet me half way
When the sun is perched at it's highest peek
In the middle of the day

Let me give my love to you
Let me take your hand
As we walk in the dimming light
Or darling understand

That everything, everything ends

Glee

Obsession

Glee.
My latest obsession at the moment is the clever new comedy romance drama called 'Glee'.
With the main female character (Rachel) being the OTT goody good who only ambition is to be a star and the main male character being the captain of the football club who gradually develops romantic feelings toward the crazy Rachel.
With their witty song choices and their 'everyday' high school problems, the shows seems to run smoothly without any negative criticism from Bunny.
After watching the first episode on TV3, I have reached up to episode 8 (Mash-up) online. Now waiting for the next episode to be release on the 11th this month, I will def. be watching the 'gleepeat' on C4, Wednesday 7.30pm.
Make sure you check it out.
Its absolutely fabulous!

Relax

Memoir

we all forget to do this most of the time. Even bun-bun.
We need to remember to do this whenever we have things that appears to be a struggle to us or whether it is a thanksgiving to us. Many times when my life becomes hard in my eyes, I just panic and don't realise that such trivia is of no significance when compared to other problems in this world.
BomBom feels that if you really need to do so, just take the time to separate yourself from people.
Isolation.
Such thing is always useful to everyone when you do not want to cause harm to others and more importantly to yourself.

Attention!

I heard of this Korean band a few months ago after bunny hopping around Youtube.
I've grown to love these 'beasty' men. They are very talented despite their very good looking appearance.



Recently, their leader, Jay Beom(?) left the band due to what it seems a ridiculous scandal made by netizens who looks as if they have no life of their own and would rather destroy others due to their privileges. Come on people, if you want something, don't just sit there, do something!
So this is their latest music from their album that will be released this month and support them.

When I Look at YOu

Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the night's so long
Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I, I look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and I
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when I, I, I look at you

When I look at you
I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars hold the moon
Right there where they belong and I know
I'm not alone

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I, I look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and I
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when I, I, I look at you

You, appear, just like a dream to me
Just like cyledoscope colors that
Cover me
All I need
Every breath, that I breathe
Dontcha know?
Your beautiful

Yeah yeah..

When the waves are flooding the shore
And I cant find my way home anymore
Thats when I,
I I look at you
I look at you

Yeah yeah..
Oh oh..
You appear just like a dream to me..

Looking toward the future

Appeal

Look after the our future. It could either start from saving the environment (collecting rubbish) or it could either be something much less significant now but will be very precious in the future.
I pick the latter. Children. I think that we need to look after our future generation. This means that we need to preserve the future for them. Environments, animals and the planet Earth itself. Whatever we do, we need to think about the future generation. Because this place will be for our great grandchildren and their great grandchildren and so on...
This got me really thinking from the birth of an infant from a co-worker. The story behind the pregancy is sad enough but I believe that we should help them to grow better. Even if it is not our children, this ignorance that we choose to leave toward another could also lead back to us. Eventually.
So look after this planet for our children. Even if it means throwing rubbish in the rubbish bin or not kill the animals that we hope for others to see.

Good Luck

Dear Obsessions,

Hope is the dream of the waking man. -- Aristotle

After spending five minutes trying to undo the knot on my hair and a very refreshing shower, my hair smells nice. However, this post is not about my bom bom self.

As I am sitting down listening to my Korean music, I realized that it is this time of the year again for exams. ><} Bun-bun feels lucky she gets to hop away from exams for this year. Sob*Sob* for next year as I land again to Otago to study again. Anyone please pay me not to go!!!!

Oh well.

I hope that everyone is going to go well. After that you can buy me Starbucks coffee when you get your results. kkk. Any offers?
