i (heart) photography!

This blog is still dead, I swear.

A little blog now and then won't hurt. (:

Special mention to the people who haven't lost faith in this blog, even thought techinically I annound its death a few blogs earlier.

<3

The above photo collage was created by me using photoshop! It's the first of it's kind I have ever made, I'm excited. I originally did it as an attempt/experiment for Patchwork, our school yearbook, but then a sudden urge to make a table overcame me, and so here it is. (Featureing my bestie Claudia on the left, and me on the right) If you scroll down this page to the previous blogs, you can see that I am wearing the earrings that I made!

Big Brother has started (yet again) and the only reason I watched the start episode was to criticize the housemates and the only reason I still have an ounce of interest in it is because there’s Elise, that asian girl. However she has let me down because she’s too much like one of the others… snuggling up to the guys who they only know for a couple of days… urgh. I read the psychological profiles of some housemates on the BB website, I shall list some that a find are quite intelligent descriptions of myself:

-a risk taker who can be impulsive

-has a high degree of self will

-over-reative and finds it difficulte to relax

-is open to change

-is highly impatient

-if upset, may withdraw into herself

-is in tune with emotional considerations of situations

-is a thinker and has a tendency to worry

-has a good energy level

-is cynical but chooses to call it being realistic

Ok, the last one I made up but the rest I found on Elise’s, Krystal’s, Camilla’s and Katie’s profiles.

I am currently reading Mao’s Last Dancer, it’s a really good book, specially if you’re Chinese like me, you’ll understand the Chinese-gone-english terms! It’s great, detailed, and even though I don’t live in the Chinese country side with 6 brothers, I can genuinely relate to the emotions.

Resurrection

Hey fellow blog lurkers.
 
(Read previous blog)
 
Easter- when Jesus rose from the dead. In line with this idea, I have resurrected my blog so I can right this entry. LOL. I got sick of the previous bland one. I was hoping to make a table but I'm am over that fad, there are more important things to worry about.
 
Me and a couple of friends are going to start a rock band! (unofficially). We have a drummer, I am learning guitar through Pauly, also I shall be doing vocals until someone comes along who can actually sing, and also I think Pauly is going to play keyboard. I think someone (Mel?) is going to be our composer. LOL. Woohoo! Go the DirePAs. (our unofficial name).
 
Now onto the stuff that I need to get out of my system:
 
 
Gone are those days where you look forward to school. Where you go to school, learn nothing and play four square at lunch times. Where you play skipping, hula hoops and chasey. You don't really think much. No hat no play. Everything is perfect and you question nothing. You dig in the mud and swap food. Anger, jealousy, boredom, sorrow and awkwardness don't exist. Remember Budgie the Helicopter? The Little Lulu Show. Oakie Doake. Blinky Bill. Animals of Farthing Wood. Little Bear. Feral TV! You rollerblade, your friend shares your backyard. Your other friend lives next door. Your other friend lives across the road. There is no homework, no stress, no pressure, no condescending. You don't care about how you look, no one judges you. Life is simple family + friends = happiness.
 
 
Prep: Learnt english. Had a personal translator called Cassandra. Where are you now? My very first friend: Shin. I envied your buckle shoes. Noor, you kept stealing my juice box. Why didn't I say anything?
Grade 1: Was too easy. Was promoted to grade 2.
Grade 2: Mrs. Ol'hovick. How was I supposed to know it's wasn't Old-Hovick. Millie kept laughing at me. I didn't say anything. I stole a yellow crayola pencil.
Grade 3: Mrs. Renolski. We got wooden desks with lids. I envied the way my best friend Xi-Ying wrote her M's. Nice and symmetrical. She was always on The Smile Face side of the board. I was never given such privilege.
Grade 4: Mrs. H- something. Can't remember. I got glasses. Had a crush on somebody. Can't remember his name. Anthony loved Julia. It was a known fact. Thought the year 6's were really old.
Grade 5: B.E.P.S. Met a whole bunch of people. Had a massive crush on someone who shall remain nameless. Also had 2 other really secret crushes. We ate lunches on the playground. Sat on the monkey bars. Played four square. Bought from the canteen everday.
Grade 6: Mr. Willimams. Same stuff as grade 5, felt more mature, got special bomber jackets with our names on the back. Still learnt next to nothing.
Graduation: Cried and cried. Did not stay for the photos because I was too sad and also couldn't be bothered to pose. Sat on a table near these people I didn't like. My slippers kept falling off. A guy who shall remain nameless asked me to dance. Ewww. None of my 3 crushes asked. Darn.
SKIP A FEW YEARS THAT WENT BY IN A BLUR AND YOU GET TO
Year 11: In one word, OMG. Someone turn the airconditioning off, I am catching a chill.
 
 
Need to get fit. Trying to do the splits. Any tips and hints?
I will now go and reply to those people who commented.
Next time I resurrect this blog is Christmas.
JUST KIDDING YA! LOL who knows...
 
Here are the lyrics for the song currently playing. I don't think it has much sentimental value to me, certain parts of it do. I think. Now I demand you to sing along!
 
Afterglow by INXS
 
Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow

Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who owns tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
My mind drifts away, we only have today

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow

When the vails are gone, as I let you go, as I let you go

Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I'm living in your afterglow

Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you who is closest

-End-

Hey Everyone!
Firstly, I must thank all the people who took the time to comment and well, look at my blog.
I cannot as of now update any longer. School is very busy and demanding and I don't have the time to update. So as far as I know, I won't be updating ever again. However, my blog will remain here (I can't bear to delete it!). Feel free to look in archives and read my past accounts of happiness and misforturnes. :)
I have been thinking of starting a persoanl website, not really a blog but just of some of my random creations and other randomness... until then, hope everyone has enjoyed my blog as much as I have creating it.

Memories of 2005 [accompanied by the theme: Memoirs of a Geisha]

Hey peeps, I haven’t written in a while! I’ve been busy lately, with work mainly, and I’ve been using my mum’s credit card (with her permission) to buy a Ralph Lauren Cool from Ebay. Yes, I know you’re thinking either “don’t you have to be over 18?” or “haven’t you heard the Ebay horror stories?”. My answer to both is “yes”, and that is why I haven’t had the time to update, can’t be bothered to expand on that point. I have 3 words for you- bidding is draining. I’ll keep you posted on whether I am successful.

This table is derived from the film "Memoirs of a Geisha", I wrote earlier on about me reading the book, I'm so excited it's coming out in a couple of days! See the official site HERE.

 On another note, I bought a keyboard, as in a piano keyboard, and I’ve been learning how to play “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” by Elton John. Call me old-fashioned but I love this song, and I love all the Disney songs too. I have a soft spot for piano music and even though my fingers barely reach the octave, I refuse to stop trying to reach break-neck lengths.

 Aside from that, I’ve also bought $45 worth of beads and beading tools, and yes, this is another soft spot of mine… I’ve been doing some research, and came up with a few earrings and a charm bracelet. They aren’t my first attempts by the way, because in the past, I’ve mucked around with beading and such, but I would consider selling them, if people were interested in buying that is. All the beads I use are made of glass and I’ve been meaning to purchase some Swarovski beads to add value, as well as some sterling silver earring hooks- my ears are really sensitive.

 I went to the officeworks sale the other day. Yay! Cheap stationery! Let me loose and I’ll come back with a trolley-full, but this time, I was wise enough to make a list and vowed to stick to it. BEWARE! Some things are still rip-offs, such as gel ink pens, but a pack of Kilometrico pens were only $1.88! :)

 Oh yeah, if you want Havaianas for $7.50, then there’s this opshop at 1355 Toorak Road that imports them exclusively from Brazil! Stupid surf shops, charging $17.50!!! There are a whole range of colours, but it really depends on when you go. I will now leave you with some of my memories of 2005. *sighs melancholy*

P.s. If you are ever bored and are a mush romantic like me, read Against All Odds. Click HERE. It’s not published as a proper novel but I liked it, it’s an easy read and leaves you with that warm fuzzy feeling!

 
Note: As much as I would love to reply to comments and answer questions, I can never find the time. Thankyou for all your wonderful words of encouragement!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hey Peeps!

Hope everyone had a good one. I watched the fireworks in the city from my window, though I think Sydney's ones were better (as usual).

I served roast duck and frankfurts to my dog as a new year's meal. She ate it in 30 seconds, to my bitter disappointment.

It’s 2006, weird but true. My new year’s resolution is eat more healthy food, procrastinate less and take notes in class whenever I can. Since it’s year 11 and VCE, and I have been warned by a certain coordinator that I will encounter intense stress within the first term. Great.

 

The girl on the left reminds me of Sayuri, the main character from Memoirs of a Geisha, dark hair with blue grey eyes.

 

Word of the day: Nostalgia- A bittersweet longing for things, persons, or situations of the past.

(It just so happens to be a word on my msn dp)

 

Had a sudden urge to browse ebay and then careerone.com.au and then SmartPoppy. Wish I had a credit card =(((

Missed posting Xmas Blogs...

Merry Christmas! Still getting used to our new house, and I've missed posting Christmas blogs because of it! I had a really good one up my sleeve but I guess it'll have to wait until next Christmas. There is no phone connected in the new house you see, so I had to without the internet. Meanwhile, I made several tables, including this one as well as 7 others! Amazing what bordeom can reduce me to, table making can get tedious. See them HERE. This table reminds me of chocolate and raspberry scented candles. I changed my welcome banner, but it still needs some fixing up. Thank you for all the comments! I will reply to all of them ASAP. I'm almost finished reading Memoirs of a Geisha, it's excellet, but a tad repetitive. I would recommend it though! Yesterday, I went to the exhibiton centre, they were having one of those massive sales of at least 83% off everything or something... we originally intended on buying rugs, but I found myself looking at the shoes instead. There were these cool playboy slippers! I have no use for them though... anyhow, I bought this pink bathrobe for $24.95 when it normally retails for $149.95! I can't help wondering WHY? I watched a DVD called Love Me If You Dare, it's a French movie and there's a scene where these two lovers drown themselves in a long chute of wet cement... that was disturbing. I can't imagine myself going back to school again, even though it is over a month away still.

Moving houses tomorrow...

Hey Peeps!  I love this blog! The picture leads to the fact that I love jewllery. (Excuse my spoilt tone of voice, but can resist that pic?)

It is exactly one week since the end of school, end of year 10. This blog reminds me of the happy times. Laughter. Relaxation. Shopping. Summer. Life.

Tomorrow marks the end of a series of memories. By that, I mean, we are moving houses. I'll miss my old house, small but cozy and comfortable. I remember the transition from my childhood to teenagehood. The coming of senses and the sense of understanding.

Enough of that sentimental and personal stuff, just had to let it out. Yesterday, I was sending out these virtual cards I made to some owners of spaces. (See an example below)I'm still trying to get into the Christmas-y mood.

Today, I added a Text Effects Guide like I said I would. It took ages! I tried to add maraquees but I guess these blogs don't allow Javascript.

I've been exploring Karen Cheng's blog and it's absolutely fantastic! I'm repeatedly inspired by it. It may not look like much at first, but it actually has a lot of substance! Take her headers for one- simple but elegant and snazzy. I love it!

Lately, I've been reading a book called "Sundowners" by Lesley Lokko. Despite the consistent sexual references (LOL), it's several plots entwined into one big story. I couldn't put it down. BTW, I really like the name Rhianne.

P.s. This may sound random but... Paw Paw Ointment is the best invention ever! (Besides the TV, fridge, computer, toilet and all that jazz)

Things that are TRUE

I saw Harry Potter yesterday! It the best movie out of all of them so far. This blog is of Emma Watson (Hermione Granger). This blend comes from HERE. Hermione is always either sad, cranky or worried in the movie though! And I think that Cho is really ugly... it was such a dissapointment.

I'm desperate to see Memoirs of a Geisha and The Chronicles of Narnia. BTW, apple gelati is VERY VERY delicious.

I'm moving house this Sunday! Very nervous... I don't particularly like change, but variety is good I s'ppose.

Everyone's space has been made over with a Christmas theme, *chuckles* I can't really be bothered, I don't celebrate christmas and I like my blog the way it is. I've made a Christmas blog for when it's Christmas Day...!

3000 Hits~

 

Hey peeps!

Yesterday, I added a Tweak UI Power Toy tutorial, hope you like it! See it HERE.

I've been working on 5 tables recently, that may explain my lack of existence lately!

Also, I've changed the layout from black and pink to pink and grey. What do you think? I've always changed my profile picture just as I said I would! Now all that needs changing is the welcome banner =D.

Today marks the first blog celebtation of 3000 visits since the start. Yay! I wasn't going to celebrate at 1000 but I wasn't prepared, nor was I prepared for 2000... o_0... I've learnt my lesson now!

The excursion to the French restaurant was great, though many people didn't think so. I have some photos which I'll put up only for Daina's sake, most of them aren't of the actual restaurant!

School finishes this Friday! WOOHOO! *dances around and claps* In the hols, I plan to buy that Iriver I've been pining for since EVER!!!

On Monday, me and my friends are going to see Harry Potter! I'm looking forward to it already **

Grey is an offspring of Black

Hey peeps! I've been using that a lot lately. Ahem...

People have been asking about tables. Of course I can teach tell you how, but it's a bit hard to actually DO! So yeah, you need diagrams and that... one site which I learnt tables from is Lissa Explains. If you don't understand that, then I don't know how else to put it! In addition to that, I don't use a program to make these tables, I don't think there is such one, it's just knowledge of html, and I also use Photoshop to alter the pictures a bit.

Yay! Tomorrow I'm going to a french restaurant for lunch. The dress is "smart and casual". I'm a bit surprised, aren't you allowed to dress whatever you want to whatever public place? Meh.

Also tomorrow, I will be getting my maths exam back. *cringe* I really have no idea how well (or how bad) I did... it could be anything... anything!!!!!!!!!

The doll on this table is so gorgeous!! Her eyes are like... WOAH! Hehhe...

Edit: Rose says that there is a program to make tables, Microsoft Frontpage and Dreamweaver. I've tried both programs as well as CoffeeCup HTML editor but failed miserably. I know it's possible but I find using no program and just using a structured code way easier!
 
The code for a table like above is:

<div align=center>

<table width=364 height=400

background=http://img291.imageshack.us/image.jpg

border="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width=364 height=275></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width=364 height=113>

<div style="SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #996633; LEFT: 23px; FLOAT: right; OVERFLOW-X: hidden; OVERFLOW: scroll; WIDTH: 364px; SCROLLBAR-3DLIGHT-COLOR: #996633; SCROLLBAR-ARROW-COLOR: #ffffff; SCROLLBAR-BASE-COLOR: #996633; HEIGHT: 113px">
<P align=center>TYPE UR TEXT IN HERE</P>
</DIV></TD>

</tr>

<tr>

<td width=364 height=12></td>

</tr>


</table>
</div>
 
If you have a somewhat of an idea, all you have to do when making a table is insert the background URL and change the widths and heights as well as the scroll bar if you want!

Merricks Estate- Camp & Pics

Aloha everyone! Thanks for the comments. I really enjoyed reading them when I came home from camp =)

Speaking of camp, the above pic is taken from camp. Starting from the brown thong and going clockwise, it's me, Lilly, Nancy, Claudia and Lora. Notice how I decorated it with sand, seagulls and abstract seaweed!

The picture that is behind this text is of Nancy and I in our wetsuits. I've added the photos of camp.

Camp was fuuuun! Activities included snorkel, scuba, rowing, sailing, surfing, boogie boarding and cycling. I loved surfing the best!! I really really really want my own surf board now.

Nancy and Claudia, we MUST re-enact this whole thing in the holidays!

Stuff talked at camp were along the lines of phallic symbols. LOL!! Never trust a group of teenage girls. o_0

My new fave food is apple gelati. It is sooo yummy! May I emphasise: YUMMMY!!!!!

On the way home, our mini-bus broke down. Basically, we drove out of the estate and 5 minutes later, we were stuck in Hastings. During the 2.5 hours we were there, I learnt how to a sudoku, I tried to trap a flies into the lemonade bottle and the rest were on the side of the road yelling to truck drivers "honk if you're horny!!" That was interesting... I think a few people flashed...!

Exams are over--> CAMP!

EXAMS ARE OVER!!

Yay! x100

5 reasons I am sooooo glad right now:

1. No more studying for the maths exam

2. Camp next week!

3. I can finally go online as much as I used to =P

4. We're moving house soon!

5. The last two weeks of school will be parties, games and excursions.

Next week, I'm going to Merricks for aquatics camp. There'll be surfing, scuba, sailing, rowing and more... CAN'T WAIT!

Recently, I've joined this awesome forum called Kizz Mb. Go see!

Currently, I am obsessed with PICTURES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD, and by that, I don't only mean pictures of food! For example, the background pic of this blog is one of those feel-good-pics. Don't you think? I have to give credit to Ali for this pic.

 

BRUSHES would be my next obsession. Who doesn't love brushes? There are so manyg good quality ones out there that I'm surprised they're not making you pay for them! Before writing this blog, I was again, downloading brushes. (Hm.. I wonder how much my photoshop is worth now will all those brushes?) My latest fave brush site is The Magic Box.

C ya all! I'll do some much needed heavy-updating after camp.

Note to Claudia-GB: LOL, I understand how you "quite like" your parents. Don't worry about being homesick, the aim is to have fun... besides, you're with people you're comforable with, like Lilly and Nancy and me! (hopefully!) I know it's sad that year 10 is over and year 11 maths is also over. My theory is that once we've left the doom of year 11 maths and experience the doom of year 12 maths, doom will have a whole new ugly face to it. *sigh* Back to the issue, about balling your eyes out, if you were speaking figuratively, I guess I will be too, if literally, feel free to ball... I mean just think of the people in my class and how much they... you know? Oh, I agree, there are certain people I really really despise... you know me. Claudia, that day at Coles, who took the shopping home? Because I certainly didn't and I don't recall seeing anyone carry a bag to the tram! Ack!
