I won't lie and say I've been busy because I haven't. I've been lazy. Not busy.
Last week was a bit of a whirlwind, I lost my ipod two fridays ago ! Anyone who knows me knows I am pretty much attached by the ear, so I was pretty pissed off. Luckily, my ipod was very close to death, and frequently corrupted, so redownloading my whole library, (don't have enough hard drive space for my music ._.) wasn't TOO awful.
I lost it on lamma island because I was taking photos! Ironically, as I set off (by myself, as we were with a whole bunch of people and I am antisocial and have no friends, ) I considered listening to music before changing my mind. I need to stop trusting pockets. I took zillions of photos and had fun editing them all though, so that took my mind off my ~trauma~ a little.
Will try and spread my photos out a little so I'm not attacking your eyes.
I really took a lot though..
I wrote a post on tumblr about it too, but I really really like taking photos of strangers. Not in a creepy way, it's because they're unaware. I like taking pictures when people don't know, because you can capture that naturalness that just isn't there when someone knows the lens is pointed at them. I always say, Stop Posing! but it's a difficult thing to do.
Last Saturday, after our family dinner, I went down to watch a friend perform at a free gig. Those were my intentions at least, as I managed to get myself so lost that I missed her set...
The other band we saw was not bad at all, but I wish I could've seen them ugh. Wandering around central alone after 10 isn't so fun.
Chinese New year holidays passed by reaaaally quickly, and it's weird that it was probably my last one here ! I have so many childhood memories linked to celebrating chinese new year!
Actually made my sister watch a lion dance against her will on the last day, just because I realised how much i'd miss hearing those stupid drums ._.
It's getting cold again and I've just come back from a run - forced myself since I haven't run in a bit. I made my excuse yesterday that the air pollution index was very high (and it was,) but I don't want to get out of the habit since I already have to push myself :<>
I've decided to be more positive this year. I'm so sick of being so bothered by the same people, I don't need ugly personalities just pissing me off. I will be heading off soon and I pretty much know at this point, who I'm going to bother keeping in contact with (depending if they will with me too...) so it's really this idea that post-graduation, it will be a sense of freedom :*
Since i've been downloading (or redownloading) / transferring / uploading a ton of music to itunes (had to clear out my d-drive first,) I've been listening to a lot of stuff I haven't been listening to in ages. I've also found songs I didn't know existed. As in, bonus songs, or songs I just never happened to sync to my ipod for some reason. I always end up loving these songs more, I guess it's just because I've become so used to the tracklist of an album, and suddenly i'm presented with a new song. Off-tangent, but just a thought !
Next week should be the same. We've had so many holidays/breaks that it's quite strange to be at school for a while. Luckily I have a week off in march where I go for my university interview ! I'm quite worried though, had my film REAL iop, and uh, managed to forget about it... I mean, I remembered the night before. I had done my research but still, it was a bit of a hot mess. I was panicking so much, and in the feedback email he'd sent, i may have potentially missed a category, meaning I can only get a level 5... I'm predicted a 7 at the moment from mr. w's point of view, but if i get a tough examiner ...
BUT we've got ice cream and this amazing mango/melon juice so i'm going to sign off on a positive note !
