Gilmore Girls

It's an old show, I watched it once in a blue moon on TV when I was like, I don't know, 11 or something like that but I never forget the show. It's among Charmed, Friends and the likes. Yes, you can assume that I started watching American TV shows at a fairly young age. And mind you, I used to follow Charmed EVERY WEEK (can you imagine the pain? and you know what I can't believe I'm still doing that for Desperate Housewives Season 8 now) when I was a kid, like 10 years old or something. 

Anyway, back to Gilmore Girls. I didn't really follow the show because although I kinda like it, that time it was a bit too boring for me (you know, teenage girls loving magic stuff and all that, urgh). But now, I LOVE the show. It has some nice everyday-life elements to it and it's funny and warm and not to mention Alexis Bledel's one of my favourite actresses. On a side note, blue eyes are so......hypnotizing. Sometimes during the show there's scenes where Lorelai and Rory would stare into the camera and I would go "okay! too blue! too blue!" lol. 

So yea, since now with Ugly Betty gone (some months ago), Heroes gone (cancelled according to Wikipedia), soon my favouritest Desperate Housewives (LAST SEASON T_T), I'm catching up with Gilmore Girls! Yay! I actually picked this from One Tree Hill (too dramatic as in relationships-messy), Friends (too long), Big Bang Theory (not really nice imo, or maybe cuz it's a sitcom), Charmed (way past magicky thingy, unless I'm totally bored), etc etc. Oh, there's something about sitcoms, I just don't like it, I don't really know why, maybe it's because I find it a bit annoying that the whole point about sitcoms are the jokes but not the story, and I kinda find that meaningless. I mean, it's nice to laugh but I feel totally fake watching shows just to laugh. It's unhealthy in a way. I dunno. 

Ok, enough bout Gilmore Girls. Back to my very boring life. Again, finals in a month. And I still have 3 major stuff to do so why am I still blogging here is a mystery to me. Oh oh oh!! One thing why I like GG is that Season 1 Rory's situation is sooooo much like me! Ie. She wanted to explore the world, go to a lot of countries and write about it. I COULDN'T AGREE MORE. In fact sometimes the feeling is so overwhelming that I want to go to a sea and shout over and over again "I WANT TO DISCOVER THE WORLD!!!!!!! I WANT TO GET OUT OF THIS PLACE!! I WANT TO SEE DIFFERENT THINGS AND ABSORB DIFFERENT CULTURES AND DO DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES AND MEET DIFFERENT PEOPLE!!!" *exhales* It's driving me nuts, I know. I really can't wait for my time to see the world. I couldn't anymore. Some girls at my age has the same level of yearning, but to get married. But oh hell no not me, I will NOT settle down until I've seen something out there. 

Which is why I have to graduate asap and find some way to realise my dreams. Sigh. I really must stop singing the same old song over and over again. 

Hmm, there's one more thing I wanna blog about but forgot. I never believe what they say about your memory is unlimited or whatever it is. Because my short-term memory's so limited that if I don't write down like IMMEDIATELY it'll be gone faster than bubbles break. Sometimes I wish there's this automatic record thingy in my brain that records every thought of mine. Ok that sounds creepy. But how else you could do it when you're brushing your teeth or in the toilet or whatever? That's when your mouth can't talk or your hands are fully occupied!

Anyway, if I remember I'll update this. Which is highly unlikely. So kthxbye.

Waiting

I don't mind waiting for a day,

I don't mind waiting for a few days, 

I don't mind waiting for weeks, 

I don't mind waiting for few months, 

As long as our eyes meet and you smile and say "Hi" to me, 

it's worth it. 

It doesn't matter that that's all you do, 

it doesn't matter that my heart opens up like a flower or whatever, 

it doesn't matter that I'm risking heart failure from palpitations, 

As long as our eyes meet and stay there for even a brief 2-seconds, 

it's so worth it. 

Urgh. I hate myself for being so sticky in this crush. But I can't help myself :) 

I'll just have to hope this crush will recede like any other ones and nothing will happen and I'll be my normal self again. Yup, that's the plan. Always.

Few Things Off My Mind

Hans Zimmer makes the BEST movie music EVER. 

Next, I just watched It's Complicated and it's nice, albeit uber-gross, and I have no idea how could Jane built up that kind of life it's just so incredible and I would die without regrets (as of now) to be able to achieve half the things she did (not the whole messy relationship thing, I meant the career, the kids, the house, the shop, the ability to whip up delicious pastries just like *finger-snap*, the happy mentality, etc etc.)

I just realised that Twitter and Blogger are mutually-exclusive when it comes to my venting spurts. It's either I'm active on Twitter, OR Blogger. Never AND. 

And one last random thing, I admire Steve Jobs but I still hate dislike Apple. :)

Tim Cook may be skinny but still, he's not Steve. 

Why did I feel kinda weird and wrong saying that? 

Anyway moving on, I'm done. :)

Mission Statement

For CF2010: 

• Hunt for GOOD anime wall scrolls, if possible bag a few home. 
• Get ALL merchandise stores' name card, phone number and address, so that in the future, I wouldn't have to wait another year to get stuffs. 
• Explore every possible corners, do NOT miss out gachapons (capsule toys ftw) like last year's CF. 
• Meet up with friends who cosplay, not look at their photos after the event and wondered why on earth I never recognize them at first when I saw them (this means that they've put up some pretty good cosplay!!)
• Stay there until events end. 

Gosh. If only I have that kind of mission statement for my studies instead =.=

New Sem, New Subs, New Gangs

It's almost the same to me every sem.

Except that this sem, I think I'm kinda getting the gist of it. Hey, at least I don't hide at some deserted open-air stairwell whenever I get a break and sleep or eat or get some sunshine there. 

And okay, at least I have nice friends to chat with and get to know of this sem for nearly every subject but still, I miss my best best best best best best friends in the world. 

Now I know why I cried during my high school graduation (and btw I'm NOT a cheerleader). 

Anyway, this is just a post to let my dear friends know I'm not dead yet :)

But I AM busier than last sem, taking 3 papers with one being of one of the ultimate P papers so yeah, I'm super busy, and also super sleepy at most times whenever I'm at home, not studying or watching anime. Therefore I often find the bed more appealing than the power button on my computer and so, this is why I'm not online most of the time. And on Saturday I have Japanese class and on Sunday I have either a life or family-forced-functions or an exam to study for. 

Omg, I'm gonna miss the net. No wait, let me do it again. Omg, the net's gonna miss me. Bwahahahh. 

Yvonne..

P.S. SMS works faster with me than MSN these days...just so you guys know ;)

Wrong

Something is VERY wrong with blogger.

Can you guys my fellow bloggers tell me which are you using: Updated Editor or Old Editor?

(You can choose this option in the "Basic" tab under your Settings for the blog)

I'm still using the Old Editor, as I prefer it better, but I find that the image placeholding function is kinda f-ed up.

Before the UPDATED editor comes in, I can move the image wherever I want to in the post and when it's published, you can still click on it to get a larger image.

Now, I can't. If I want that function, I need to get all the pictures on top of the posts. Or deal with the troublesome html.

Gah I don't know if you guys even get what I'm talking about.

I'm probably going mad.

And I'm tired. And today's the LAST DAY of my holiday before hell starts. Sigh.

Anime, at times like this, you keep me going.

Yvonne..

Choked

That's what I nearly did, on the green tea that I'm sipping, when I saw someone named usui102 is following me.

On my twitter.

Did he not realize, that he has the same name as that hot guy featuring in Kaichou wa Maid-sama!???

I think he followed me after I updated twitter with "♥♥♥ USUI ♥♥♥". Um, tough luck pal, but you may notice that people have been saying Usui a lot lately due to a certain popular anime?

Anyway, his twitter is FILLED with Japanese, which I'm only in a beginner class learning it, so I don't really have any idea who he is at all. I tried reading some updates, but I can't get the whole picture.

Lol. Sorry Usui, the one I'm in love with is, I'm sad to say, a fictional character.

Yvonne..

P.S. And he actually REPLIED my green tea tweet! And then he updated his twitter with something about working hard writing in English!! LOL!!

P.P.S. Why is it that I'm so PATHETIC when it comes to conversation in Japanese?? orz

DREAD Again

In a few days, my college will be starting soon.

The cycle will resume back to: go to college, be intimidated by the knowledge opened up to me, be freaked out at the kind of things and the amount of it that I have to cram in WITHIN 5 months and sit for the exam of it in 6 months, go home, have meals, study a bit, feel lack of happiness in life, go online, entertain myself with animes and shows, realize that my assignment is not finished after I'm done, finish assignment, go to sleep.

Then the next day I will wake up feeling totally depressed all over again.

Oh yeah, it's going to be so much fun.

Btw, what is this that I heard about Kevjumba being on AMAZING RACE SEASON 17 WITH HIS DAD?????????????????

No. No. NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Someone must've dreamt about it and spread the rumours on the web. That is so unreal.

But awesome. At the same time.

I got sort of excited. Yeah. And cannot wait to see the duo on AMAZING RACE.

Now, I have something to look forward to. Besides Japanese class every week :D

Yvonne..

P.S. I know you guys miss my Food posts. At least I miss them too. I'll try to get something up soon enough ok?

After Nearly 5 Months...

I came back to my personal space to blog.

Although I've done this before but now all of a sudden it feels weird. Like, familiar but weird.

And I kinda like the fact that I don't think anyone follows this blog anymore MWAHAHAA. Which is good because I don't think you guys are going to like it when I reveal what I've been doing for the past 5 months ignoring my blog totally and completely.

Actually there's no reason. Yes, you've read me right. There's not a valid reason for not writing in my blog. It's not because someone I do not like to be reading my blog is reading my blog, it's not because I've had such a traumatic impact that I don't wanna blog anymore, it's not because I've got myself involved in something very attention-consuming that I stopped blogging anymore. No, it's not all that.

It's just that, one fine day, I just decided that I don't feel like blogging for a long time. You can called that "lazy" I guess (hehehehehe) but I bet 75% of the people whom I know will not believe that I am a very lazy person. They all think that I'm hardworking and I seriously don't know why.

Or, you can blame it on my facebook game. To be exact, TWO facebook games. And ACCA. And my college's constant ongoing stream of tests (3 tests in 4 months!!). And now, after the third test, I have a week of short break (supposed to be study leave) and then a month later I will HAVE MY FINALS. YET AGAIN. It's depressing, already.

Anyway, I want to announce something (as if anyone still read the blog anymore) --- I am going to change my blog's website.

So do take note. Why? Because my current blog website name is boring. Lol. Yes, I know "how can my name be boring?" But yes I think it's too boring, for a blog, I want a nice fancy name for my blog now, and I will cook up that website in a few days. And let you all know. But later.

You know, these few months, it's not that I don't have anything that I want to blog, but I have TOO MANY to blog. Especially about Christmas last year, and New Year and Chinese New Year, and the books that I've read, the movies I've watched, the lessons I've learned, the feelings, the TV shows that I've covered, and a lot more. There's just too many things!! If I blogged it all off I won't be living a life. Kidding. Therefore, I don't want to blog ALL the things that I want to blog, just blog when I feel like it and up for a lot of typing, that way I think it is more productive, in a way.

If I can find the time, I will try to complete all the drafts waiting on my blogroll now.

Yvonne..

Okay

Long time no post, don't worry, I'm not dead (yet). As usual finals slaughtered me and dragged me across a bed of sharp long nails. Well, that's clearly no surprise.

But anyway, I'M DONE WITH FINALS NOW!!! (And another 6 months I'll be dragged across that bed of nails again anyway =.=)

I have so many things to do, I feel like listing them down:

• Go to Comic Fiesta 2009.
  
• Watch at least 5 animes before the next semester (I'm watching Code Geass now :D).
  
• UPDATE THIS BLOG (I have like, 30 posts to update and I'm lazy but I have so many things to write!! A lot of anime reviews, food reviews, shits and stuff :D).
  
• Scour through all the malls for Christmas decorations. God I love Christmas decorations.
• Restaurant City unlock 3 dishes for each course, reach 800000 GP before semester starts (I really hate the game now yet I'm still playing it wtf).
  
• Update photos on FB.
  
• Find new recipes to bake :D
• Go out, go out, go out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, there're more on my list, but those are personal stuffs :D

So this is a post to tell you guys that I'm still alive, and be prepared to see major spamming of blog posts within this month (I hope I won't drag this till next year :D).

By the way, please note that my latest obsession is:

♥KURURUGI SUZAKU♥
(Omg, I wanna marry him.)

from Code Geass (Jeez I really hope one day I can stop loving fictional or anime characters, did you guys know that in Japan a guy married a game character in a virtual dating game?? Like wtfffffff, I wish I could do that to Shinichi *cough ahem* Kidding. :) )

And yes Does that mean I'm *FINALLY* done with Rurouni Kenshin? Why yes that's RIGHT, after 95 excruciating-but-in-the-end-it's-nice episodes, I'M FREED FROM RK. Actually, I finished watching that like before the finals :X Himura Kenshin is so hot ♥ XD.

Alright I really gotta gather my thoughts now and erm post some more later, now I'm busy. LOL.

Regal

I hate cats, but sometimes there are exceptional cases. Especially for cats who know how to behave and look almost adorable.

This one looks serene and almost regal.

Yvonne..

Two in One

Twin-yolked egg!


But sadly it's not me, but dad who discovered it =(

Yvonne..

Meet Sweet Bubble

Meet Sweet Bubble, my loyal and faithful wrist rest that relieved that bruise near my wrist.

If you're someone who spend time with your computer most of the time while you're awake, you'll get what kinda bruise I'm talking about here.

So meet Sweet Bubble, my newfound healer :D

Yvonne..

Ya know wyekeat, we should totally hold a ceremony for our lappies to become twin bros, what say you, eh? XD

Yvonne..

FAQ.. XD

LATEST EDIT: Modem's back. Seems like I still can have the net. I know, wtfwtfwtf. Dad, please don't play this kinda joke with me anymore? Sigh.



So, some of you might noticed that I've disappeared off the face of the net world. For more than a week or so. No showing up on fb, blog, msn, twitter, nada.

Before you guys start firing questions at me, please do read the following FAQs (LOL):

Q. How come I never see you online anymore??
A. My modem has been taken away from me. =)

Q. WHY??
A. Well, it's not that sudden really. I've been wanting to do this for a long time, and now finally got the guts to cut it off. =D

Q. Why not earlier but now??
A. I got a really record-low mark (since primary school) for one of my papers, and so that's the trigger point. Please don't ask how low it is.

Q. How low??
A. Please re-read the previous answer and tell me which part of "Please don't ask me how low it is." that you don't understand :)

Q. Then how're you going to LIVE?
A. It's very hard but I'll try to live, don't worry, I don't think I'll die *yet* And besides, I'll still hang out with you people as often as I can :)

Q. Then how're you going to online then?
A. I still have my laptop and wifi. And maybe dad'll let me have a go at it *sometimes*. I'll occasionally use the college's wifi, or starbucks, or other coffee house.. well, you get the picture.

Q. What time usually will you be online?
A. No friggin idea. It depends really. But definitely not into the late night like I usually do since it's almost impossible to stay so late outside.

Q. OMG! How am I ever gonna chat with you online again???
A. You can text message me on my mobile. I'm not dead you know :)

Q. But won't text messaging be slow? What time can I text you?
A. I'll try to reply asap provided that I'm not unconscious (sleep), busy, or having class. I don't really reply to text msgs in class unless in the case of emergency. Sorry.

Q. So that means you're going back to being the ice/stone/prehistoric/pre-21st century age woman the way you were before you got broadband connection?
A. *Sigh* I know. One minute I'm all 21st century, and the next minute I'm not. I'm sad now :(

Q. How're you going to pass your free time which you normally spend on the net then??
A. Oh well, watch telly (something I NEVER do when I had the net), watch my long-abandoned animes, read novels, enjoy being utterly-freaking free and detached from the world *flashes a brilliant smile*.

Q. You liar! Then how come I saw you still update your twitter/blog/xxx so frequently?!
A. You don't know how incredibly easy it is for me to update my twitter with my wifi mobile. N82's awesome.

Q. What do you miss most online?
A. Surprisingly, I don't miss MSN at all. I miss my blog and twitter, where I can express myself and type whatever I want whenever I feel like it. And google, and image google. And wikipedia. Yeah, those are the sites I miss. Facebook? Hmm... sometimes. Hee!

Q. What's your next problem then?
A. My mobile phone bill. xD

Q. When will you have your net back??
A. I'm sorry, I honestly don't know.

Q. Are you gonna abandon the blog???
A. Nope. I'll still blog. Be prepared for blog outbursts, and twitter outbursts =D

Q. How bout fb other social networking sites?
A. Fb, once in a while, I hate friendster since the beginning of time xD, for others not mentioned, I don't even have an account there. :D


That's it! (I think.) Will add more if there's the need :D

Toodles!

Pearlescent

In the game Burnout Paradise, we call this the "Pearlescent Pink".

I saw Pearlescent Purple before, it was SOOO pretty, but I forgot to snap a pic of it that time.

I bet this kind of paint costs a bomb :P

Yvonne..

AFC's Following Me XD

Yes, AFC, the channel I love the most on TV, is FOLLOWING ME on Twitter.

I know this might be nothing, and AFC's probably gonna realize that it has been following a wrong person after a while and subsequently unfollow me but at least now I have AFC following me!~~

Lol, I'm so deluded.

Yvonne..

Ya Kidding Me??

Tell me, how could this have happened......

"Our name search server seems to have wandered off"???????

That's a very interesting personification.

And a quite annoying one too, I mean, "wandered off"? Seriously? o.o

Yvonne..
