Restaurant

I was having lunch at a cafe this arvo and prices were so ridiculous! How can a ceasar salad cost 22 dollars?!?

Anyway, so after you finish your meal, if the waitress/waiter says thankyou to you, would you reply with "thankyou" or "you're welcome"? 

time

I feel like i'm lost again. There's just so little time that everything i do feels like half-hearted effort. It's so hard though, because when i look back and think about what i've done, i know that this is the best i can do. Does that mean that i'm actually not trying hard enough?
I think about all the strong people out there, and i don't really understand how they do it. By the time i come home and help around it's 9 o'clock. And because it's already so late, so quickly, i can never find time to relax and i end up losing my temper. Some days are better than others though.

mid sems huh?

It's mid-semester for us but it's already exam block for grade 12s. I guess it's really true when they say that time moves so much faster when you're older.
For those of you who actually read this, sorry for not posting! Here's what has happened the past few weeks..

Grandpa came to visit me! Er, *my family XP. It was so nice for him to come visit us, i love him so much XD. He is so wise and hm, i guess if there was such thing as a perfect grandpa he'd be it. Can you tell that i really admire him? =P
Ahh, i wish dad was be less tense though =(. This is something i don't get, why do people always think that by complaining, or showing-off, other people will sympathise with that person or think he/she is great or something, and as a result that person will be liked more? To me it's the opposite. If you put effort in doing something good, sometime there will be someone who notices and appreciates what you do, and when they do it'll be so much more meaningful. What do you think?

So anyway, yes, grandpa is le awesome. =D. I think...if it wasn't for him my mum's side of the family (family of 9 children!!!) wouldn't be so together. It's so amazing that people like him exist in the world, and give a positive effect (in the nicest way mind) to life and the people around them. And he doesn't really lead either...(not that leaders are bad). As in, he doesn't force his values on you... he just lives his life to what he thinks is right, and by interacting with him you find that you start sharing the same values? Eh, did that make sense? XD

I never really got to know him until a year or so ago, and I'm so glad that i did! Haha, when i visited him at that time it was just after he had a bad car accident. The doctor said that he wouldn't be able to walk properly anymore...but, he kept trying and now he's hiking on mountains XD. He actually has the energy for it too! =D. When we were at a sports oval, he decided to run with me, and so-he-did! My 80-year old grandpa ran with me around the oval XD. Haha, i'd be worried if it was anymore than that though, but yes, i thought that was totally cool.

He was only here for two weeks though =(. So um, just before he left i went on this jewelery spree for my cousins and aunties over there. I passed it on to him the night before he left, and he was all...can you teach me how to do this??? As in, he was serious about it! He thought my tools were so cool! Ah he's so cute XD. If you want to see what i've made...some of it is in my deviantart site =) --> shnoar@deviantart.com

That's another thing i've been doing recently! Designing and taking photos =). When i study and do my work..hm, i like it, science is fun. But when i take a break and do something arty i find myself realising how much i miss it...So i think to myself, is this what i want to do? But then again, i do it anyway? As in...i know that whatever path i take in life, music and art will always be with me. I can't make up my mind =(.

Wow i've already typed a lot XD. Well i can tell you the rest of it on another post =P. Sleep time for me!

Ahahaha i named the title mid sems but i didn't actually end up talking about it.

my new case!

i just bought a new hard drive...and it looked so pretty and new that i made a new case for it XD.
here it is!!!
isn't it beautiful? =D
i wish i had thicker white thread though...and a working sewing machine XD

azn guys with big hair

Isn't it funny that nowadays a lot of guys are spending more time taking care of their hair? E.g. every morning when my brother wakes up, he spends 1 hour just doing his hair. Amazing really.

Haha, before he started doing all this i remember him telling me a story of when he went to the gym with his friends. Basically, after they all had their work out and shower, his friends were in front of the mirror, straightening their hair. (yes they actually brought their own straighteners to the gym!). XD.

Well, there's nothing wrong with it. I find it kinda cute that they do all this now. But sometimes it just looks quite silly. Today i was out with Lynn and we saw this guy who had nearly the same hairstyle as Cloud (er. some guy from kingdom hearts). I admit that it did look pretty cool, and he was kinda hot, but it was just so BIG. Small face + big hair? He wasn't that tall either so it makes it look so fake. Haha, it's like...i go up to him and ask, "Hey i like your hair! Where did you buy it from?" Ah. XD.

Dinner story continued [from day 1]

[from Facebook]

"Calum wrote
at 8:31pm
hey sharon! thanks for the add. How are you!? You've probably realised I was the 'aussie' eating dinner at your apartment the other night :) Sorry for being so rude! Didn't realise you were talking to me.

Love Calum."


...lol.

Gah

I felt sleepy so i thought i might take a nap. My idiotic brother lost his temper at mum, so mum decided to take it out on us (my sister and i). I pretended i was sleeping but i heard the whole lecture. Half an hour later my dad barges in the room and tells me to eat dinner. I sighed, woke up and made my way to dinner, to only get yelled at again by my mother throughout the meal.

WHY.

Gay, or not gay?

Last week while I was having lunch with some friends I saw my brother and his friends pass by. (this is a super rare occurrence btw [that time was only the 3rd time in one whole semester and a bit]) Being the loving sister that I am, when I saw him I was overjoyed and instantly said hello to him.
He on the other hand, only glanced at me and continued on his way.
!!!!!
One of my friends who was sitting with me also knew my brother, and after witnessing my not-so-successful "hello" he says casually to him, "Hey Ray."
Ray (my brother) turned HIS HEAD AROUND and gave his sign of recognition. lol, the way i wrote (typed?) that sounds like he did some weird hand signal. BODY LANGUAGE. Basically he said hello.

And i thought to myself... my brother publicly jipped me.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As soon as i got home i challenged him as to why he ignored me like that. He claimed that he did in fact, say hello. Anyway, during our exchange of blows and insults he goes, "How come i never see you with hot guys". I reply with - "How come i only see you with guys?"

It's TRUE though, i have never seen him with any girls except when we were still in co-ed primary, and in all these years he's never had a girlfriend. (lol i make him sound so old). Haha, i talked about it to my sister and she, amused agrees with me.

No i do not think my brother is gay.

phone call

I was washing the dishes today and a friend of my mum called up. Just judging from the conversation i deduced that this friend's son impregnated some girl. So now lies the problem of the unborn child. Ahhh problems problems problems. Anyway, after the convo mum goes: Sharon when you're with a boy don't be together.
Interesting choice of words mum.

day 1

My first blog!

I actually woke up EARLY today and got out of the house EARLY for my 8am lecture. But no! The bus had to be late. So there i was entering the room 20 minutes late, found that the nearest empty seat was in the 2nd row. Ah, and i was wearing my sister's bright pink jacket today too...baw XD

Hmm embarrassing moment no. 2...today at dinner my brother invited his friends over. One of them (Calumn) was someone i blocked on facebook because well i didn't know who he was XD. Anyway, we were having dinner and Calumn remarked on how nice the food is compared to what he has at home. I thought i'd be nice and have a conversation going so i asked him what he usually has at home and-he-ignored-me. Ahahha, bet it was payback for the blocking XD.
Nah, i don't think he heard me. My brother however, did. after a few seconds he started laughing at me and went "rejected!". His friends were like what? XD.

I have now decided that i don't like wednesdays.
