Life?

Things have been stressful lately.
Assignments to complete, exams coming up and I feel like I know nothing, people around me stressing me out.... where do I begin?
You watch enough movies and sometimes you think, since art is based on life, maybe there really are such things as happy endings. You know, the princess riding off into the sunset with her prince, or the heroine finally triumphing over all odds with everything she ever wanted in her grasp.
But I'm starting to lose faith in life and all its happy endings.
Happy endings don't happen.
You don't just breeze through uni with parties and a great social life and tons of boyfriends and top grades. You don't always meet the right people who connect with you the right way. You don't always get what you want.

Randomness... what else is new?

I spend a lot of time at work sometimes sitting around passing the time reading mags and Reader's Digest. Not all the time, but only when I'm taking care of 'special' patients who require one to one care. I love these special shifts. No need to talk to anyone, no running around like a mad woman, and no sore feet.
So I found these real funny paradoxes of famous quotes that really brightened up my shift and made my patient doubt my sanity when I smiled all to myself reading them.
Since sharing is caring, I'd like to show I care....

A journey of a thousand kilometres begins with a broken fan belt or a flat tyre.

It's always darkest before the dawn- so that's the best time to steal your neighbour's newspaper

Give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you're a mile away- and you have his shoes.

The meek shall inherit the earth....... if its okay with the rest of you.

If you love someone or something, you should let it go. But if he still sits there, watching tv.... well then, you probably married him.

And some jokes:

A woman meets a genie and is allowed one wish. She takes out a map and points to several countries, " I would like peace here. here and here."
The genie looks apalled. 'What? That's impossible! I am only one genie and that is too much work for me!!! Try another wish!"
"Okay." She said. " I would like a man who loves children, cooks and clean, doesnt watch sports all day long, doesnt drink or smoke and always helps with the household chores."
The genie sighs. " Okay, let me have a look at that map again."

I am a commitment phobic.
I tried to get help for it really, I went for therapy sessions.
Well, just one session anyway. The therapist asked if I wanted to book another session and I said, 'Ooooh, You're being way too clingy."

Hahahaha. I love Reader's Digest jokes.

Happy Birthday!

My most sincere and contrite apologies to Madeleine!!!!
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
I have been so swamped lately and my internet has not been working for a month.
Probably just excuses but I am seriously so so so sorry I forgot to wish you a happy birthday!!!
So sorry, Made!
Here it is again, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!! Hope you had a good one...

Phantom Of The Opera

Finally. The day we'd been awaiting for almost 5 or 6 months.
Phantom of the Opera on stage.
We bought the tics in November when we heard it was coming to Adelaide.
And was it worth it?
Words cannot even begin to describe.
Beautiful. Absolutely magnificent. Fantasic. I am running out of words here and I haven't even managed to describe half of its awesomeness.
If only I could somehow transfer all that I had seen from my brain into a video and post it here. Then you would know what I am talking about.
Perfect. Down to the last detail. The choreography, the actors, the orchestra. Even the chandelier falling from the ceiling and the gunshots and the change from old dusty modern day theatre to its former glory. Every single scene was beautiful. and the smooth transition from scene to scene, costume to costume, set to set was unbelievable.
I only managed to take that picture cause obviously this isn't some cinema in Malaysia and we weren't allowed to record or take pics while the thing was going.
Definitely two, or three, thumbs up.

I HATE

I know its wrong to hate people. I know its a real strong word to use.
But gosh. Sometimes I just HATE those bitchy people out there who think they're better than others. That they're a level above everyone and can look down on others just because they're not as smart or pretty or interesting.
I HATE bitchiness. And fakeness. What makes you think people are going to like you for being this fake, made-up bitch of a person? WHat makes you think shooting people down for being who they are makes you a better person?
Do you actually think that being a wild, drinking party-loving animal is going to lead people to believe you're cool?
So what if you're pretty? So what? Sure people will like you, and then get to know you and find out who you really are. We'll see who gets the last laugh then. We'll see. And you wonder why you don't have any real friends. Open your eyes and look in the mirror for goodness sake!
I won't let you shoot me down. I won't let you make me think you're better than me. And I absolutely WILL NOT take all this shit from you.
Sometimes people just make me so mad.

Oh Happy Day!

This is how I look today and how I hope to be looking for a few more days yet until Tuesday ( cause thats when I start work again dammit!)
Because first of all, obviously, I am ONLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My internet is back!!!!!!! It is finally fixed and I can now go online whenever I want!!!!
On an even brighter note, I finished my stupid 2000 word essay that was worth 60 marks!!!
I don't know what I was writing but I'm just glad I've finished it!

And on a much much much brighter note, X MEN ORIGINS WOLVERINE- HERE I COME FOR YOU ON SATURDAY NIGHT!!!!!!!!

Everybody sing with me now, Oh happy day!!!!!

I miss my internet....

So yeah, my internet crashed.
It's been down for a couple of days now but I'm hoping to get it up and running again.
My internet's down, there's been a problem with our water system and we didn't get hot water today, our TV room's locked for renovations.. I keep telling everybody, its like living in the middle ages!!!!!
And oh, my room flooded last Wednesday. Or Tuesday. Doesnt matter. The cleaning lady forgot to turn off my tap and WHOOSH. Not only flooded my room, flooded half the room of the girl living opposite me. Poor thing. My room smelled like something died in there for a while, then I packed my room with air fresheners and now it's starting to smell a lot better. I mean, humans can actually BREATHE in there now, so PHEW.
First day of work was alright. Actually a lot lighter than I thought it would be. Meeting all the new nurses is still scary cause some of them look real stuck up but I guess it takes time. oh well.
Assignments are piling up. I've got an essay worth 60 bloody marks coming up in 2 weeks time. gotta start getting off my lazy ass and do some serious work.
