God I hate Christmas shopping! I got so stressed today trying to think of what to get for Annie and Mrs Luo.
I never know what to buy for adults (when in doubt, buy chocolates wtf) and I just met Annie but she’s super nice! And I know she’s going to get me something so I have to buy her something!
Ya so I walked around the stupid mall and it didn’t help that I didn’t know Canadian brands so I had to walk into every store to check out what stuff they sold.
And got harrassed by strange and disgusting males. Ya don’t think mat rempits and their “Ah moi cantik fooeit fooeit” wtf is a Malaysian phenomenon because apparently it is international.
Blogcirc topic: What I don’t want for Christmas
(Titi I really don’t wanna do this ok cos you wrote about everything worth writing about already I hate you wtf)
#1: Soft toys: Do I look like I’m 12 years old to you! (okay don’t answer that wtf) But seriously what on earth can you do with a stuffed animal? It has no function other than to collect dust wtf and maybe if your partner gives one to you so you won’t be lonely at night without him it wouldn’t be so bad but what is it with people giving teddy bears from Memory Lane I really don’t know.
#2: Paperweight wtf. Especially those clear plastic kinds with liquid and beads in them wtf.
#3: Organizer. Especially those bound with fake leather with the year imprinted in gold wtf. Which are inevitable because nobody will think of giving out Hello Kitty ones for Xmas 🙁
#4: Big stuffed tiger wtf. Which is what some poor sap is getting for Xmas, judging by the way this man in the mall today was lugging around a big fluffy orange striped thing.
#5: Chocolates! Don’t give me la you think I can’t afford to buy them myself ar wtf.
Ok done with this topic!
But what I REALLY want for Christmas is:
#1: Anything pink and Hello Kitty
#2: DS Lite Sims 2 Castaway and Hotel Dusk: Room 215!!!! (Or the supercard where you can download games and play on your DS Lite)
Quick recap of what I’ve been up to lately!
Taking rides in trains meant for children!
Us super happy in the train carriage!
Taking pictures with beautiful Christmassy decorations!
And a super tall Christmas tree.
And with Annie!
I’ve also been gorging myself on delectable Asian food. This here is Korean mmmmmmm
And karaoke!
And playing DS Lite! Angela hates me for this and keeps staring at me and muttering she doesn’t know why her soulmate is such a big geek who is absorbed in it every free minute of the day wtf.
And taking sticker pictures!
Lots of them!
Miso soup fell on my head wtf.
A much needed trip to the salon!
But not much difference also wtf. Except the blond highlights are gone and everything is copper (ya very boring I always vacillate between dark blond and copper tones. Coppertone sunblock wtf.) Why is my face so fat and annoying here wtf.
And we did up the Christmas tree! In every picture our backs are to the camera because damn ugly ok just woke up and this was pre-hair makeover ugly like cibai wtf.
We did it in shades of silver and blue! (and random multicolored lights wtf)
And did up the outside of the house! The reindeer are actually the neighbor’s and he was nice enough to put one up for Angela’s family too! They nod yo! Like they’re eating grass wtf.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Love, Aud.
I’m in Vancouver!
The plane that took us there! (Actually took us to Chicago for our transit only, but details! *waves hand)
Clockwise from top left: eating breakfast in Hartford with our massive bags and eyebags wtf; Angie waiting; me waiting; our plane waiting wtf.
As luck would have it! The snowstorm in Chicago delayed our flight by one and a half hours T_______T and we were stuck sitting on the plane watching:
..them spray stuff on the plane. Maybe to defrost it?
And Angela was stuck with some old woman’s foot next to her elbow WTF no manners stick her stockinged feet in front through the gap!
To while away the time.
But we got here safe and healthy and that’s what matters! wtf.
And thank the heavens I finally finished ALL my assignments and that’s all that matters too!
It’s definitely not as cold here, but for that reason I brought less warm clothes and now I’m paying for it T__________T
And holy bejesus Vancouver is SO Asian! Especially Angela’s city Richmond. It’s so Asian that I can’t even read signs because everything is in Chinese T________T
I keep forgetting I’m in Canada and keep thinking it’s Taiwan or China wtf.
But I’m slowly but surely learning Mandarin! From talking to Angela’s mom, I’ve learned how to say “don’t want”, “hot”, “cold”, “auntie, have you eaten?” wtf among others.
And omg the food! 
All heavens of Asian food and MacDonald’s everywhere yaya I don’t think I would wanna live if Mcds didn’t exist wtf.
Speaking of food, the other night I woke up in the early hours of dawn wtf with raging hunger to the point of nausea I think it’s the fucking birth control pills T__________T
So I tried to sleep it off because honestly who wakes up just because they’re hungry you’re not supposed to feel anything when you’re asleep!
But I couldn’t and I actually threw up twice why am I like this T___________T
Throw up cos hungry wtf.
So I went downstairs and got soya milk and a sausage bun and I drank like half a cup and ate 3 bites before throwing it up as well T__________T
Then I got so exhausted that I fell asleep by the toilet bowl T________T
I woke up for a bit and drank some more soya milk and one more bite of bun but I still felt like shit and then I vomited for the 4th time T____________T
By then I was wondering if I had developed some sort of sickness that would make me throw up everything I eat heretoafter and I started imagining that I would have to live my life with a drip by my side wtf.
But then there was nothing else to come pheww and I fell back asleep (in my bed)
And from then on I think I’ve developed the mentality and paranoia of a famine victim wtf because now I am so damn scared of getting hungry again that the second I feel the teeniest of hunger pangs I’m off to the fridge.
Watch me get fat and stretch marks this way wtf.
More later!
So I’m a great believer of horoscopes, especially after ex-boyfriends in the past.
Angela found a horoscope site today which has to be the most sohai site on horoscopes ever put up. She was reading all the negative traits and predictions for every horoscope and by god every single one is damn funny ok hahahahahahha.
Let me put some of them here!
She told me: Aquarius (that’s me!) always makes the same mistakes cos I’m an idiot WTF and that I lie a lot (wtf no la only the same amount as other people ok wtf) and that everyone thinks I’m stupid why like this T___________T
But Angela’s was worse! (She is Gemini) It said that she’s superficial and people usually like her because she’s homosexual WTF HAHAHAHAHAHA
Then we thought Scorpio was the worst. (Brother Ooi is Scorpio) It said: “In business you will have very good skills but noone will trust you. You also have no sense of morality but maybe that’s why you’ll be successful” WTF. Then it also said that most Scorpios die because they got murdered HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
But then we looked at Libra and it was even worse! (Libra is Fat Her Ooi and Suet) “Most Librans are prostitutes WTFWTF HAHAHAHAHAH and if you’re a male Libra you’re possibly gay” HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH HOW CAN LIKE THIS WAN And then it went on to say that Librans will die of STDs and the chance to get money or jobs is 0 WTF HAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
SO MY DAD WILL DIE OF STD AND MY BROTHER WILL GET MURDERED WTF
Virgos will fall asleep during sex HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
Cancer (my mother) : for other people’s stuff you sympathise a lot but you never try to help. You are so stupid that people use you and you’ll only realise after they use you. Then you bitch behind their back. You always delay stuff that’s why you have to depend on social welfare to live your life WTF. Your worth is less than shit. Most people in jail are Cancers WTF HAHAHAHAHAH
I asked how about Capricorn? (Yeff, Grace, my grandma wtf) : you don’t like challenges , afraid of having adventures in life, basically you are a coward, none of the famous people is your horoscope, you should commit suicide now
HAHAHAHAHAHA HOW CAN ASK PEOPLE TO COMMIT SUICIDE HAHAHAHA
The rest weren’t that funny so I didn’t put up.
Ok night!
Justin said that he thinks of me as someone with no family and no past WTF like as though I only exist in Mt Holyoke and there will be no me after that WTF.
Which is total nonsense of course but when I got to thinking about how I’ve been celebrating Xmas and New Year’s for the past 3-4 years I did feel like a nomad or a person with no past wtf because every year I’ve been celebrating with a different set of people.
This year I’ll be spending the holidays in Vancouver with Angela’s family and friends.
Last year I spent it in Kyoto with the Hashimotos, eating Christmas cake, toshikoshi soba and watching Kouhaku Uta Gassen wtf.
The year before I was in Toronto waiting for Uncle Ricky to wake up to drink champagne wtf.
And let’s not even talk about Chinese New Year.
My favorite celebration of the year and it’s been 4 years since I even celebrated it properly. By properly I mean reunion dinner, new clothes and piles of angpaus :((((
I am really lucky for being able to travel so much. My passport’s been stamped in 7 different countries just this year.
But just this year, what I’d really like most is to spend the holidays with the Oois 🙁
I was tagged by Jam to do a ‘what I want for Christmas’ list.
#1 to spend it with my family – it’s just not the same with someone else’s.
#2 to get a job that I like in a place that I like!
#3 to graduate with honors please oh dear god especially after taking fucking Drawing I don’t think my GPA can be that high anymore T__________T
#4 for my honors thesis to be reviewed and accepted as a thesis
#5 to settle down somewhere (in Asia wtf) with my Babie Angie and live next door to each other with our husbands and children wtf.
#6 um to fly the Club over anytime I want.
#7 bigger boobs (i’m losing hope here, God. wtf.)
#8 my very own fairytale (and happy ending! V. v. important)
I’m done with my draft for May 13! Actually not totally done yet it’s just the first draft and I still have to revise it but my Lipman emailed me and said nice job *big big shiny shiny eyes wtf.
He’s never said nice job to me! The most is Audrey, good try but *insert whole list of criticisms wtf.
I’ve finished with my art portfolio too! So that just leaves revising my draft for Japanese and writing my 8 pager paper for stupid British colonial history which omg I feel like killing myself every time I remember why I’m even taking this class. It’s cos I wanted something to fit into my schedule and ta-dah Brit History came up T________T
It snowed so hard today! At least 5 inches of snow and I was so grumpy cos I had to put on 47 layers of clothes to go out wtf.
But when I stepped outside it was beautiful! Snowflakes were swirling in the air and everything was pure white (as snow WTF) and rounded cos the snow covered everything and buildings and sidewalks and cars became round Disney objects 🙂
So I took off my gloves and thrust my hand into the snow wtf and immediately regretted it cos my hand started hurting wtf had to run back into the shelter of the building wtf.
Here are some pictures I stole from Mild! I didn’t bring out my camera when it snowed and her pictures are so so so pretty I wanted to show people! (Eh Mild don’t get mad ar I did ask you but you talked about something else instead and I forgot to ask you again. Was that your way of avoiding having to say yes to me taking your pics wtf)
The prettiness makes me (nearly wtf) forget how much I hate winter and having to wear every piece of clothing imaginable.
So the other day we had a performance for hiphop under the Dance Department.
Mild said, “You guys weren’t that bad… especially Angela.”
MEANS I AM REALLY THAT BAD WTF T__________________T
I like dancing so much ok my favorite show is So You Think You Can Dance so why is God so cruel to deny me this talent wtf T____________T
Cos dahlah I have no coordination and grace. And apparently I have no muscle memory either cos I can’t for the life of me remember steps and if you could see me you would know that every move I make is one step behind everyone else wtf cos I’m looking at them and copying their movements wtf.
Ballet section!
Angela and her Modern Dance class did a piece too! It was quite cute but I don’t think Modern Dance is my thing a bit too new age wtf for me.
I think this was Modern Dance II. They danced with chairs which was quite cool but not the sexy wear fedora and shirt and tie and dance with the chair kind. They shouted “Hoo! Ha!” WTF when they danced I guess it’s a modern dance thing =.=
And this is part of our hiphop routine gawd I thought for so long if I should put it up wtf. But thankfully I was smart and stayed behind tall people so nobody can see me *juai face wtf.
Stupid random picture that Angela took of me and edited while I was sleeping. She said I slept with my hand doing the rock on sign wtf.
And this is MY random picture of her! She wore her shirt backwards hahahahahahaha. I said it looks like her head twisted the other way damn scary wtf so she drew herself another face wtf.
Happy 21st Birthday!
I love you truly,
Aud.
(P/S: Will write more when I’m not dying T_T)
Haha omg is everyone who reads my blog really that kaypoh!
Because of the meme in the last post, I had to face all kinds of questions! How many guys have I regretted sleeping with also got wtf wtf.
But I have to admit you guys are damn creative in coming up with questions. I would never have thought of half the ones you asked!
Do you think the questions got so probing because most of the time I avoid writing about feelings or personal happenings? Cos I have pretty much the same readers as Suet, and like although a lot of people asked about her relationship with my brother, that was about it and the questions weren’t as er varied too wtf.
I’ve never been inclined to write about personal stuff on my blog. Like I never even explicitly referred to Yeff as my boyfriend. Cos a blog is just so public and everything you write will reflect upon yourself to form an image to the world. Whatever you type will be put out there to be scrutinised and criticised, and I never thought it was necessary (for me at least) to do that.
So I guess the meme was a pretty good exercise in opening myself up to the blog world huh? wtf.
Actually it’s gotten me thinking what kind of image exactly do I present of myself as a person, thru my blog.
Anyway the Art Dept had an art show today.
And everyone who’s taking art classes have to put up 2 pieces of work each.
Mine! Ya don’t ask. The one down there is ok (this is going up on the living room wall ok mum wtf) It’s charcoal erasure and this is the assignment that made me look like a coal miner called Malachi wtf every day of my life T__________T. I covered the whole paper with charcoal and used an eraser to draw and shade on it, and it’s damn messy ok the charcoal kept coming off on my hands and clothes and face T________T
The top picture dunno what cock I was drawing also la wtf. The assignment was really weird! The teacher played sounds for us like cows mooing and babies crying or bells chiming and then we had to DRAW OUT what we imagined the sounds to LOOK like.
So everyone just drew like scribbles and zigzags and shit right. And then she made us draw an egg shape anywhere we wanted wtf.
And then she asked us to create a picture that had dimension out of all the crap we scribbled.
And no objects! Like no humans, no animals no man-made things. Only scenery or design was allowed. So that’s what I came up with T_T
Everyone in my class is so talented! I’m the worst one all my drawings look like cartoons la cibai. (Actually no la the second worst cos there’s a girl worse than me wtf)
DAMN NICE OMG. (Printmaking possibly)
Ok goodnite.
毎日ただ勉強だけ。。。死ぬそうだT_____T
Seriously I think I might die before this is through wtf. Even at night I lie awake in bed thinking of what work I need to complete tomorrow T____T
Exam period actually ends on something like Dec 20, but Angela and I cleverly booked our flight for Dec 15. I don’t actually have any tests to sit for, just a whole bunch of final papers to write.
So goody, looks like I’ll be sitting on the plane with my laptop writing essays. =.=
Time is a-ticking and I can’t decide if I like knowing that I’ll be leaving in 12 days, or if I’m frightened out of my skin by the lack of time I have to finish all my work!
I have:
One 20 page (at least but I think mine could hit 40 wtf) final paper for my research project
One 5 page paper on hiphop culture WTF damn useless! – but I finished this at 430am last night *sweats
One 5 page paper IN JAPANESE WTFWTF how is it possible to write 5 pages in Japanese
One final presentation in Japanese
One take home exam which is basically another paper – 8 pages on British colonial history
One portfolio to tidy and submit for final and two pictures to submit for Art Show
WTF just by typing all this out I got scared! I didn’t think I had so much to do!
And Suet is still forcing me to camwhore with her!
Even after I changed into my pajamas!
Yet I succumbed wtf.
Height difference
I hate people who make others feel low just so they can feel good about themselves wtf.
Wishing I could go back to my desk (where I belong wtf)
My own personal photographer taking a picture of me wtf.
It’s snowing!
Meme from Jam:
Ask me ONE question- no matter how personal, inappropriate or random, I will answer the question 100% truthfully (I might not if the question’s out of line though).
I tag: tic tac toe wtf.
Scared la to do this meme! I thought for a long time if I should do it. What if someone asks me something totally terrible like have you ever shat in your pants or something equally bad then I’ll lose all my face and dignity!
(the answer is nearly but no wtf)
Answers to my discretion!
窓に映る私
すごく可愛くないわ
わざとウソついたり
したから…
キスをしたその夜
知らない女の子とかと
遊んでたあなたに
ジェラシー
「会いたくない」なんて
なぜ言っちゃったのかな？
大好きすぎて悔しい
ね～ね～ね～
今日の涙はしょっぱすぎるわ
見られたくなわこの涙
ね~晴れどおり雨のち好き
Oh yes I love you for what you are 好き好き好き
あの子に触ったの？とか
聞けない門ね～ああ
大好きだけど何よ
ね～ね～ね～
Then got some more but lazy to type wtf. It’s been running through my head these days.
[edited] it’s song lyrics! It’s Hare Ame Nochi Suki by Morning Musume, sorry I shoulda made it clearer.
So Thanksgiving is over and it’s time for Christmas!
Radio stations have been playing Christmas carols non-stop and it helps that it snowed last week too:)
I’m in desperate need of a real break – my Thanksgiving was all about assignments, trash, instant ramen and crying jags so I really think I need one.
I’m sick of school, sick of writing papers (I think I’m getting carpal tunnel syndrome wtf), sick of looking at whirring rolls of microfilm in dusty libraries.
And I’m feeling a little lost, sad and unsure right now. 🙁
But hopefully all these nasty feelings will go away in 3 weeks when I fly off to Vancouver! And then Miami in March for spring break!
Think happy thoughts, Aud Ooi.
Yes, well, I did go for Thanksgiving with Gayle’s family.
See I didn’t plan to go – on Wednesday night I went to do trash and I didn’t know my door locked itself and I was locked out of my room T_____________T
I had to call Public Safety to let me in, and they took a good half an hour to come magecibai. So I sat in the lounge to while the time away by playing the piano wtf I don’t even know how to play the piano (I learned electone ok ) and they took so long that I had already played all the Chinese songs and nursery rhymes I know and Chopsticks and I was moving on into Martina McBride before they finally got here T___________T
And I kena fined 15 bucks for getting locked out T____________T
Anyway I was so pissed about it that I really didn’t want to wake up early the next morning to go for the Thanksgiving lunch. I planned to wake up at 8 and call her to cancel, but when I did nobody picked up the phone!
So in the end I had to go T_________T
But I’m glad I did because they’re really really nice people! Although I really suffered trying to stay awake in the car because I’d woken up so early 8am ok! And I’m terrible when it comes to moving vehicles I sure fall asleep wan I swear it’s some kind of disorder.
So I sat there strapped to the back seat wtf for 2 hours to Rhode Island cos they wouldn’t move until I put on my safety belt and clenched my jaw to prevent my yawns from showing and took really long blinks and pinched myself wtf damn suffering la omg.
Seriously everytime you wake me up before 12 it’s a no-go wtf. My earliest class this semester is at 11 and even then I’m struggling to keep my consciousness. Don’t know how I’m going to survive the working life T___T
This is the family: John the husband, Grandma, Sarah the daughter, me, Gayle.
See this is why I don’t like taking pics with white people wtf cos I look so dark next to them while they have skins of glowing happiness wtf. I had hardly any makeup on somore, cos I thought I wasn’t going to go T_T
The food was delicious though! We had turkey and cranberry jelly and soup and salad and peas and stuffing and squash yummmmmmmmmmmm.
It was a very eventful day. Grandma lives in a home for war veterans wtf cos she was a nurse in WW2. And she told everyone she saw that I’m from Malaysia I guess I’m some sort of novelty wtf.
And then oh blessed stars! Me and John had to assemble Grandma’s DIY table drawer set wtf.
Cos he said he’s going to do it and he asked who wants to help him. Gayle said “Not me” and Sarah said “not me” and I don’t dare say anything cos they so nice pick me up and take me out to eat so this is how I repaid them. By being hard labor wtf.
Obviously I wasn’t much use because we kept making so many mistakes and had to gostan and unscrew shit and redo it all over again.
He’s getting ready to beat me wtf cos I took a picture right after he screwed up again ahahaha.
ButI guess they thought they had some kind of wood wizard with them cos I told them I did carpentry in highschool. Under Kemahiran Hidup ok!
I helped also because I really wanted to go home early and do my assignments wtf but both of us took the whole afternoon to build the table it was that hard ok!
Some more the table was apparently under the “easy” category for DIY; I shudder to think how long it would have taken us if it wasn’t.
Ya so my Thanksgiving was spent building someone’s 91 year old grandma’s wardrobe wtf.
Good thing they were so nice and the Grandma was so cute. She sat on her bed looking at us sweat over the wood and like 5 minutes later she would say, “oh so you’re fixing the leg in / oh so you’re screwing it in now” wtf.
And John would be like “that’s right mom, can’t fool you” wtf hahahahahah they damn cute.
The finished product!
So my break’s been all about work.
Got bored so I took a picture of my wall.
And I did more work.
And then I drew my self-portrait for my art class.
Which caused me undue stress wtf.
Cos it was fucking bad ok!
I showed Yeff on webcam and he said “why so suck wan HAHAHAHAHAHAH!” wtf.
And I showed Suet and she took a step back and shouted “what’s wrong with you!” or something to that effect.
All I can say is I’m glad the picture looks nothing like me wtf.
