its been a month of not blogging? already? get outtttttttt
not much has happened in this month except for uni starting up all over again and me trying to study while getting screwed over by 1am women's badminton or swimming or volleyball or gymnastics or soccer.
the olympics games are upon us.
how very exciting. all this drama into the opening ceremony and all the hype thats happening with those military tanks, ugly little girls, digitally remastered fireworks etc etc etc etc etc makes me wonder just what china thinks its getting out of its games. the cube and birds nest look disgusting in the day time. first hand experience kids. does nothing for the beijng skyline at all. half the seats at all the games are empty. if youve watched any of the games yould have realised. wanna know why? cuz the chinese government is scared of mass groups of people, espeically their own people in case some rally happens or some retaliation.
when did the government become scared of its own people? sounds crazy out of this world and stupid.
dont get me wrong. im a proud chinese girl who knows her roots. who speaks chinese with her parents who eats chinese food. who writes and reads chinese. who will probably end up marrying a chinese boy (HA HA HA... i laughed out loud when i wrote that... fucking hilarious)
but not every country is perfect and only those who can see the faults of their country and who want their country to rise above and be better for the future are the true patriotic ones. people who blindly thinks that china is the best and see no faults within society and the government are kidding themselves.

my law ball is next friday. that should be fun. i havent had a really really fun night out in a long time and i could use one. the last time was probably before the snow with qiuy. FUNNNNNNNNN. who knew two girls could have so much fun.
BTW
the snow was terriffffiiiccccccccc. totally going back next year!

my plan for these summer holidays is... taiwan for 5 days (in december hopefully... COME ON CAOCAONUT). then straight onto china for the end of december until early feb. then straight to thailand to meet qiuy, pino and janet. THATS THE PLAN THATS IN MY HEAD ATM. too many places you think? putting too much in my schedule? AHAA probablyyyyyyyy
but i so wanna go. i wanna go to the luxe club in taiwan. i wanna go to the hot springs and eat at their night markets and go shopping and suss out taiwanese stars on the taipei roads.
going back to china for me is more of an obligation. theres not much to do when all your cousins have uni exams or are working and dont take break. and going out with my aunties and uncles makes me feel guilty cuz 1. they're taking time off work 2. i never pay for anything cuz they fucking spoil me like the shit. no joke. my parents have never spoilt me ever in my life and yet my extended family thinks im some princess or something. not complaining though. but this means that im babied too. my aunties think im gonna be abducted just by taking a cab. although chinese cab drivers are dodgy...
although if i go back ill be able to see my grandma who is not getting any younger. and my grandad who just had surgey. i think sometimes my mum and dad feel like shit offspring. they are never there to look after their parents. hell i feel like a shit grandchild. while im in china i make them happy and laugh cuz yes im so funny. but, like this time, my cousin was telling me how he stayed with my grandad at the hospital all night blahblahblah and it made me feel bad cuz i wanst there to spend the night with him.
i guess thats the sacrifice you make moving away from your parents.
exciting news. my mum is going back to china in oct for some conference. my dad is going back to china in oct. cuz its his 30 year uni reunion (old fart) so hence my cousin and i will be all home alone!!!!! WOOOHOOOOOOOOO. i can finally take her out for a night on the town and show her the true night life that sydney gets on the weekend. this also means i need to get my P's very soon. fark im scared. i can reverse park, curbside park and drive and change lanes, do a uey. but i cant shopping centre park... WHAT DO I DO? :(
wow what a long blog.
i just feel like typing. although maybe the typng will be more useful with my tort notes aye?
im still spending more than i earn and i refuse to transfer money from my netbank saver to my streamline. I REFUSE I TELL YOU. im lodging my tax return on monday which will see me 1K richer. :) not complaing. going straight into my netbank savings account. not even gonna touch it and let it earn its 7% interest baby :) so right now im living off work. i work one day a week. for just a bit over 100bux. which after many endless calculations should get me through the week if i dont go out on the weekend. but i always keep withdrawing money for some reason.
i got the next installment for my scholarship :) 3k babyyyy. going straight into my netbank savings WOOHOOOOOO.

family lifes been good. im back in my old room after getting kicked out. not fighting so much with my parents as much. which is terrific i must say.
OH YEAH
i have to tell you about my bargain buy. 9.95 for a really nice blazer. gold buttons and this really nice trim to it. i put it on loved it. paid for it while still wearing it... then my cousin was like errrr pecy theres a huge rip at the back. IT WAS GINORMOUS!!!!! no wonder it was 10bux... sheeeesssssshhhhhh. but i got quiy to take it to some asian tailor in hurstville so itll probably be the most another 10 dollars. BARGAIN I TELL YOU.

ive only got 3 days of uni this sem. which is great. and which means that i can work one day and study the other :)

oh yeah? next time i come back ill show you something really awesome!!! YOU GOTTA WAIT FOR IT K?

until next week thursday. bye kiddos
