World in my hands

I'm watching Misfits!!! It's insanely addictive eventhough I've only watched 3 episodes (1 being the latest episode wtf) and it's about this group of teenagers was caught in a strange storm and there are others who was involved and were given powers to become what they want to be (that is from what I analyse from watching few episodes la, ie shapeshifter, turn younger, invisibility, immortality etc) and it's uber cool. Some scenes were horribly graphic, think blood, slaughter, and very sexual (not that am complaining heh!) and it's good!!! Gonna catch up on more episodes =P

And Melbourne weather and this show got me thinking, am I granted with special powers!??


Last year this time (though I was already back in KL) it was hot, like HOT scorching hot. My skin was burning when I step out of the building. let alone with no aircon or a cooler. And now? Winter conditions, heard that the last time it rained during November (draught, summer what not) was 40 years ago. It's prolly god love me too much for being so special *cough* or that the world is coming to an end. =/ From my analysis, I think sooner or later, Australia's winter will be on par with other continents' seasons. Or maybe Australia thinks that it is about time they catch up with the wardrobes that the rest of the world are trending though haha (omg I just realise how bimbotic that sounded) but yeah. Kinda true no?

Not that I'm complaining cause when Melbourne is hot, it sizzles. You can practically fry an egg on the top of your car! :S But just don't rain too much and ruin my days would ya?? I still need to plan a birthday, and probably pack my shit to move. Oh...

I think I'll be having 1 large suitcase, 1 medium suitcase, 2 hand carries, about 5 - 6 boxes of me own stuff. =/ But I think a few will be shipped off via parents/courier, not too sure yet! But as far as I know that I've donated 1 china lv bag worth of stuff and oh boy... I think I should just send that box full of heels back seeing that I'm not wearing heels all the time. And I just bought 2 pairs of shoes la la la~~~ I think my shoe fetish has gone too far... =(

Deprivation + Obsession = Empty wallet.

deprivation being me, having big feet and unable to find shoes my size, resulting in a desperate me buying whatever shoe that I fancy and has my size! obsession being the inside of me that wants more pretty shoes! Empty wallet is when I cannot resist and succumb to temptations. =( Oh lordy....


And probably one of the evidence that world might be coming to an end??

Sky was roaring red that day on the way back from Wilson's Prom!!! SUNSET!!! :D The sky was dyed in hues of pinks and reds, and a tine of blue at the edge. Ahhhh wonders of Australia.

Chocolate Buttercream

Was randomly facebooking and saw Joshua's post on this yummy cupcakes!!! Decided to give it a go, bought a new whisk and new muffinpan (cause I'm moving out!!). Nothing beats a good whisk :P Instead of whisking 10 minutes for a meringue to form peaks, now it took less than 2 minutes :D hehehe sorry that's my inner Nigella Lawson speaking =P

White Cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting, stuffed with custard.

I really like the chocolate buttercream!! Not too much chocolate and it taste like Dutch Lady chocolate milk!! :D Or any other yummy chocolate milk. New technique to make extremely smooth cupcake batter (which is to use meringue instead of the usual eggs, milk, butter sugar mix). And I found out that it's actually really easy to make custard (with the help of corn starch of course :P). There's still room for improvement =P

Ok the last finished picture is stolen from another person's blog this is mine wtf. :P Erm... I didn't cool the cupcake before putting on the buttercream so it sorta broke/melted -_- But the taste is still there!!! =P

Photobucket
nahh mickey mouse wtf :P

I shall... Practice more!!! =P Who wants to be my guinea pig!? :)

责任

There are 16 alphabets in the word RESPONSIBILITIES. But to me, there seem to be countless alphabets contained in this word. I'm not ready.

The day I climbed a mountain

Mt. Oberon it is.

3.4km. It was hell!!! Lack of water and tired, with an aching knee (well it was still kinda raw, the wound) and hot, humid. SLOPE T_T

But when you climb of to THIS.


Photobucket

Everything is well worth it. The journey down don't seem that long, not as hot (just a lot of bugs)

camwhore shots of myself cause I took the other route to the top, the easier way of course with less climbing =P see my wound!? T_T But it's ok now.

Is there anywhere that has equally nice view minus the climbing/hiking? OMG I already feel thinner halfway up there wtf. 6.8km FTW hahaha

and also one of the VERY rare occasion that you see me wearing sports shoes HEH!
PS: I may or may not have liquified myself 2 sizes less my original size. Just saying. Or it can act as a disclaimer haha

Walking, Stumbling

Packing is a bitch, Yet another time to pack my 2 years into boxes, and move to places to places. How hard can that be?? You're wrong if you're thinking that.

I need to pack some 30 pairs of shoes into boxes (*heartache*). Oh my pretty shoesies into boxes. And prolly get them ship home. The books OH the books, fucking heavy books. How am I ever going to bring back those books? Some to dispose, some to giveaway some to sell. So many things to do but yet I seem to be doing nothing. Nothing is certain nothing is confirmed. So many uncertainties. Is that why I've been having weird dreams of nothings but signs telling me of the uncertainties that I'm facing. For every weird dream that seemed so real, i search it online and it tells me that this dream is caused by real life events, and that I'm always insecure about uncertainties (who isn't).

Then there were doubts, about things, people, doubts about things people do. Sincerity, what else, attitude. I can no longer judge the good or the bad. All I can do now is take small baby steps.


生命太多疑问,只为有见步行步. 生命中无数的问号, 也不能够在短暂的时间里解决, 船到桥头自然直。或许所发生的都在上天 的掌握之内,成长的过程并不是所见得的容易。

长大,并不简单。

Obliviate

I am rather sure that I am living in a moment right now. Not doing any thinking, not conversing, just eating, shopping, spending. Like how I used to when I was back home. As you all know my parents are not keen on me staying here (they didn't say it, and they seem rather "supportive" to whatever I want to do, but I know better, they just don't want us to be away from them).

And then I see pictures. Pictures of my family, altogether. And some pictures that I was tagged in Facebook, with a little gap in the middle, that they pretend is me actually being with them during the trip. And then I watched HP7. When Hermione cast a charm, "Obliviate" to erase memories of people. Seems so weird, but it is as if I'm erased from this family. I know I am not but it felt like it. As much as I love my family, there is still this unfulfilled gap that I can never seem to trace it, or fill it. Unsure what it is, but really, do you know how it felt like when everyone is posting happy pictures of whatever things that they're doing and you're behind the screen seeing the pictures, without you? Over and over again? You think it's fun?

Maybe it's just one too many times.

Or maybe I chose to do this.

What I Wore today: WIW1

This is so fun!!! I can recreate my looks here without having to take pictures of myself and get all depress when I liquify myself to half my original size, AND I don't have to take the effort to actually take a picture, slab on makeup and smile for it! Haha

Photobucket
Zhuhai slouchy white top with pockets, Vintage lace pleated skirt (yes without lining haha), Alex+Chloe necklace, Country Road nude ballet pumps, Chanel bag, random tan belt not pictured.

Chaddie sale today. YES I was the girl with the see through lace skirt and YES I was wearing a black skirt/spandex whatever you call it underneath so it's not my underwear. and YES the skirt is fucking tight cause it's a vintage size 10 and I'm a modern size 12, it makes a difference. People from the past seem to have smaller waist!! HEH!

So... what did YOU buy today? I'm a happy kid :P:P:P

some items may differ from real life cause I don't exactly have a picture of the top that I wore today, but it's the same top but shorter sleeves, the skirt is a picture I snap this morning before heading out and flash myself wtf, my bag is lambskin not caviar, and the ballet flats is now very smelly and old and the leather is torn and is actually a nude/light tan colour. meh.

Say Hi to Billy

This song was playing in my head all the time during this trip " Billy is a boy and Mandy is a girl, Grim is their buddy he's the ripper from the underworld."

RIGHT!! Adventures of Billy and Mandy from Cartoon Network oh man I miss that show T_T

I was on a short trip to ride Puffing Billy few days ago with the housemate also where I slip and fell on my knee :D And now it's infected and my dad was like "if there's pus it won't heal" thanks.

The most fun part of Puffing Billy was that you can sit on the window railing thingy and hang your legs out!! Just like everyone else in the train!! It was really fun despite being 3 times more expensive than the normal Metro trains but hey at least they were punctual! 11.10 means 11.10 no delays whatsoever! :D Twas fun!!! And oh oh best workout ever was the paddling boat ride, kinda scary slash fun =PP

(Mock) Graduation

What I'll be expecting in approximately 3 weeks time, hopefully with a fully heeled knee (I missed a step and had this quite badly scratched knee *ouch* and I think I turned green at the sight of blood streaming down from my knees into my shoes =/ I was surprised that I was kinda afraid of blood!!! Shocking shocking)

Then I'll need to think which size of the mortarboard should I be getting to fit my huge head. I got a size M and it kept falling when the wind blows and it flattens my bangs. -.- I may not have a 23 inch waist but I sure do have a head measuring at 23 inches! :P

Some from the 100 pictures I took that day. Twas fun, and the weather was superb. Melbourne's been well lately. :)
