Update No. 56 - Tests + Assignments = Stress ):

I just did my Maths test today. It actually wasn't as hard as I thought. We had 60 minutes to do the test and I finished 40 minutes early. :OOO So I checked it for 20 minutes. And rested for 5 minutes, checked for 3 minutes. Sat for 2 minutes and gave it in early 10 minutes. Can't believe I memorised the times I finished and stuff. :P

I had badminton training this morning but didn't get to train with Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) since I was in the Competition Training team. I told her to join so she can improve but she was too scared ): Don't know who she played with. Lol. The badminton trainer didn't zip his fly by the way. Don't ask me why I looked. :P I WASN'T PERVING D: THERE WAS SOMETHING GLITTERING IN IT AND-- Never mind. (:

After school, I had knitting club and Julia and I recorded for our Elective History presentation. I acted as the guy. Lol. Anyways, we are editing it tomorrow as there were random parts when we started laughing because of my voice. I'm not going to put it on Blogger since it's too embarrassing. Lol. :$

For the geography presentation today, I made up an excuse and got away with it like many others. I need to finish it on Friday now or I'll get nought. I think I'll be able to finish by then. I'll put the video on Blogger since it's only my voice and it's promoting Australia...well meant to. Lol.

No pictures today; so sorry for all this slabby text.

Hope you have a good one,
Michelle xx

Update No. 55/Rant No. 1 - Extremely Stressed ):

Recently, I've been so stressed. Not from important exams. Just from so many things that are due in the next few weeks; including this one. ): Tomorrow, I have my Maths test on Consumer Arithmetic and Coordinate Geometry. NOT READY D: I have NOT studied. ): I can't even finish the exercise without 600 mistakes. So. Screwed. D:

The day after that ( Thursday ) I have a Japanese Topic Test which I haven't studied for either. Why? BECAUSE THE MATHS TEACHER GAVE US SO MUCH HOMEWORK THAT I DON'T HAVE TIME TO D: And I don't even know half of the vocabulary you need to know. D:

On Friday, I have to go to this Tree Day for planting trees for half the day. More catching-up to do. ): Not to mention I have to present my Geography video which I haven't finished either ! Maybe I should switch to Powerpoint like everyone else is doing. ):

And then the weekends ! And the it's not over yet ! I have this Elective History exam on Tuesday on Case Studies that you HAVE to study for or you're screwed. That's me ): On the same day, my Japanese Dialogue thing is due.

Next Thursday, my English website is due. ): Dreamweaver is so DAMN HARD/ CONFUSING to use. It won't work for me. ): It must really hate me. Screw. You.

Anyways, that was my Rant. Lol.

Movie Review No. 6 - Cowboys and Aliens

The main character was Jake Lonergan who was played by Daniel Craig. Olivia Wilde played Ella who was actually a .... I shouldn't say. Oopsies. Lol. Turns out she played in Tron as well :O Never realised. But I did realise that Noah Ringer was in the movie; he played a guy named Emmett Targgart. Noah starred in 'Avatar the Last Airbender' except in this movie, he wasn't bald. :P Thought he did a good job. (:

The director was Jon Favreau who also starrs in Freddie Wong's video where Freddie went to the actual set for the movie :

The movie itself was really good. I really enjoyed it and as usual, as I watch anything, I cried ... A BIT though ! I even cry watching the news....sometimes...you didn't need to know that :O But too late. :P

Definitely a movie worth watching. The trailer doesn't really show much so you'll have to go watch it yourself to really understand what's it's about. (: Really action-packed and nerve-racking though. (:

Rating: 8.5/10
Recommendation: For those who like action-packed things and Daniel Craig. Mixed with Cowboyness/Westerness (:

Update No. 54 - Weekends and Kitty Update !

It's finally the weekends and I didn't do anything today. I just had Chinese school in the morning and maths tutoring in the afternoon. For maths tutoring, we went through some study notes to get me ready for this test I'm going to have on Thursday. It's on Consumer Arithmetic and Coordinate Geometry, both which I find challenging. ): The questions are all mumbo jumbo to me. :P

Tomorrow, I'm going to see 'Cowboy and Aliens' with Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) and Bob. Really excited. :D

Yesterday, at Matrix Coaching, Julia and I kept giggling at the teacher and I think the class kinda got annoyed since we kept laughing at everything everyone said. We had a corrupted mind. :P

A kitty update in this post as well since I've only done one or two posts on my cat which was really early on, when I first started blogging. :O I have this picture of my and my cat that my sister took recently. Sorry about the lighting. He kept moving around. :P And he's fat.



Look at his legs! AHAHAHAH!

 

Another pic (:

Update No. 53 - Daffodil Day

So yesterday, our grade actually woke up super duper early to volunteer to help for Daffodil Day. Last year, we went to do Jeans for Genes Day and it was really really fun. Though tiring (: This year, it was Daffodil Day.




 Same thing. It was REALLY FUN :D Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) and I spent the whole day trying to sell this tray of items for Daffodil Day and asking 'HI. Would you like to support Daffodil Day?' But then Julia suggested we change it to: 'HI. Would you like to support Cancer Research?' to somehow make people feel worse if they said no. Ahahaha ! Nice idea Julia ;)


The daffodils on sale didn't actually look as great as that :P ( Photo source from Google (: )


Nothing more to say but that was really fun ! My sister's sick but getting better since she's taking anti-biotics from the doctor. She had a really high fever for 5 days in a row ! Wow - some sort of record. Well, to me. :P

Hope you have a great weekend,

Michelle xx

Update No. 52 - Haven't Posted in Ages!

I can't believe I haven't posted in about a week. :O That must be some sort of record for me ! So I'm going to update now (:

Uhm...welll honestly nothing happened that was interesting over the past week. But I'm helping out with Daffodil Day tomorrow and so please come and donate some money if you have time to (: Much appreciated. (:

OH YES. I did the 40 Hour Famine last weekend. I gave up food and it was alright since I did it last year before. (: It's too late now if you want to sponser me online since I've given in my form/money today. ): Sorry.

This week on Sunday, I'm going to watch 'Cowboys & Aliens' with Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) and Bob. Real excited since I really want to watch it. Apparently it isn't that good. :O But I'm still watching it (:

Enjoy tomorrow and your weekend. I'll try to blog more often now (:

Update No. 51 - School Excursion Yesterday (:

Yesterday, the whole of Yr 9 went to the Royal National Park for this school excursion. The bus ride was hell - boring and long. I think to go to the mangroves ( where our group was going ) took about 1 hour and 45 minutes D:

Just some pictures I took while I was there:




The beach




The Mangroves




Aren't those birds interesting? :P

Update No. 50 - Shopping, Shopping, Shopping :O

Yesterday ( Saturday ) I went shopping again. No reason why not to. LOL. I went to David Jones to buy my Clinique Facial Moisturizer and there was a promotion going on.

A really large bag of stuff that consisted of 5 full-sized stuff and 5 sample/travel-sized stuff for only $19.99. The stuff in the bag were worth a lot. But you could only get it for $20 if you bought something else.

So there was heaps of stuff in it and the bag that came with it was black and I'll be using that for Chinese School since I kept borrowing my sister's bag. Lol. I didn't take pictures since .... I don't know why I didn't take pictures. :S Oh well. I've tried some of the stuff inside. So far, so good.

Today, I went to get the DOLLY magazine since I didn't buy the last 2 months. The 'extra' was formal guide which might come in handy next year or whenever I have my formal (:




I took out the packaging already so yeah. And my actually opened it without telling me so when I came back from tennis. It was like that^.

  Tennis training was fun.

On Friday, before Matrix, Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) and I went to get an appointment with a specialist since it was part of our Elective History project. ): So we have to interview this guy on Tuesday. Hell scared since we didn't even write the questions yet. :O

Favourites Tag - Made by Julia

OK. So Julia 'tagged' me to do this Favourites List. Which I have done many times...well twice before, but that was my songs so yeah. (: And these are separated in categories. I'm going to twist the tag a bit and put two favourites in one category. >:)

Link to Julia's blog: http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/

Song:

Right now...I am loving 'Look at me Now' which is by Chris Brown, Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne. I know everyone knows this but I've been listening to this the most and I have listened to any 'new' songs. :P

Second favourite would be 'Jar of Hearts' by Christina Perri. (: That's a good one too. (: <3

Book:

Definitely 'To Kill a Mockingbird' by Harper Lee. Which I absolutely loved but it was boring at the beginning. No offense. :O
 


 Second favourite would be 'The Red Pyramid' by Rick Riordan. That's another favourite. (:


 Movie/Video:

That's a hard one....well I'll just do a Youtube channel. Which would be Freddie Wong's Channel. Since I love action-packed stuff mixed with comedy. That channel is my favourite (:

Link to his channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/freddiew

Fashion:

Really into cropped stuff. I love cropped tops and cropped jackets and cropped blazers and literally everything cropped.

I'm also loving jeggings because.....I don't know. If you know me, my style at the moment is usually: a hoodie, with jeggings and fringe boots ;) Yeps that's me. And it was funny when the chinese teacher at our school turned up at school in a hoodie, jeggings and fringe boots. :O

Beauty:

First love would be this new lip gloss I got from Bloom. It's a sample sized one but neverless it's really good. I'm going to tell my sister to get me one for my birthday since it's so expensive. After I finish the sample sized one. (: The shade is in Kissable which is really pretty :D <3




 Second favourite would be the Maybelline New York the Falsies Volume 'Xpress mascara. Nearly out of it but I bought the Colossal which I'll try later on. (:




 That's it for now. When I have more favourites I'll post them (: Now I tag Amanda and other people who would read this. :P

Update No. 49 - More School and Coaching

I went to school early today for band rehearsal. Was really fun. We played this piece called 'Whispers of the Wind' by David Shaffer and it sounded really really good and it sounded like it came from the 'Pirates of the Carribian'. :O Going to check Youtube now to see if they have the piece there so you might be able to hear it (:

I found a few on Youtube. Just search it up but other people are performing it and it sounds bad quality so yeah. Not linking them here. If you're really interested - search them up. Actually I'll show one:

I LOVE THE MIDDLE PART :D

So for lunch I had mushroom and chicken pasta with chicken. (: It had cheese in it. According to Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) it smelt and tasted really good. Too bad I couldn't taste or smell it that great since I was sick and for some reason my senses don't function that well when I'm sick. :/ I took pictures of it though (:

Enjoy your weekends (:

Update No. 48 - Went back to School :D

I finally resumed school on Wednesday which was yesterday. I didn't go to school early yesterday for badminton training since my mum said 'no' and I valued my sleep. :P I wonder how badminton training went for Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) since she went by herself ): I didn't even ask. :O

I also decided not to go to knitting club after school since my dad couldn't pick me up after knitting, so I didn't want to catch the bus home and be late for my flute lesson.

School yesterday was really tiring since I had this really hard Japanese Language Certificate Examination. That was SOO hard ): Didn't know half of the test. ): But at least it was multiple choice ;) I was also tired because I was still recovering from my flu/whatever my illness is. I actually had fevers for 3 days in a row. :O

During geography, Jane wanted to use up her liquid correction thing so Alisa and I had spent the past 2-3 weeks trying to use it up. And in geography yesterday, we succeeded so we actually cut up her correction liquid thing because we were:

1) Naughty,
2) Curious,
3) For the sake of doing so ;)

I took some pictures ;)




Altogether ;) Alisa's scissors are damn strong. Mine couldn't cut the correction thing. ):




What was inside ;)





Together; after we took out whatever was inside as well ;)

  And I had to catch up on so much missed work. :O At least some of my classmates helped write some notes on the sheets that the teacher gave out (: So that was good. Now I just have to decipher figure out how to do my homework with the notes. (: So thank you to Alisa, Julia and Jane (:
So today, school went normally. During PE, we had to make our own game of sport and it was seriously so hard. Our team/group had no ideas whatsoever so we are really screwed. No ideas came to us and it's an assessment task worth 20% of our report mark T_T.

On the train today, I didn't catch the train back with Julia since she had to go early and the person that was taking me back home was late. But I found this really funny sticker thing on the train and I took a picture of it. (:




What does it look like? ;)

 When I came home today, I made a grilled sandwich which was really good. I used our newly bought griller which I haven't taken pictures of yet. And I will soon. (: So here's my sandwich :D



The bread was sooo crunchy <3 :D

 That's all for today,

Thanks for reading,

Walnut : and i look like a brain ! ):
Mushroom : thats not too bad… i look like an umbrella!
Banana : can we please change the topic ?! x___x

Update No. 47 - Didn't go to School AGAIN! :O

I didn't go to school today AGAIN. I woke up this morning and I was really hot ( temperature-wise to all of my wrong-minded friends out there :P ) and I took my temperature and it was 38.6 degrees Celcius. So my mum told me not to go to school; again. So I had to change back into my pyjamas and go back to bed. I slept till around 9am. Which was 12 hours of sleeping since I slept at 9pm last night.

When I got up my eyeballs hurt ): They still do but at a lesser measure of pain. ): So I took Panadol and for the rest of the day I tried to do some homework.

My sister's coming back from camp today at 6pm :D Excited for that. (: I'm going to ask how her trip was. (:

Nothing to say but I think I have a lot of work to catch up on ):

Thanks for reading this extremely short update (:

Michelle xx

Update No. 46 - Didn't go to School Today

Boo.

So on Sunday I actually got the flu or something. And I woke up extremely early today since I had to go pee. I woke up around 5:30am. And then I remembered that my sister wanted to wake up at 5:20am so she could get ready to go to camp so I woke her up. And now she's at camp ): So lonely. ):

After waking her up and going to the bathroom, I went back to bed and tried to sleep but I had a pounding headache that wouldn't go away and I ended up staring at the ceiling for about 1 and a half hours.

So when my alarm went, I got up and strangely, I didn't feel tired. I got ready for school and went downstairs and my mum told me not to go to school. And after some arguing with her, I decided not to go. ): I knew that if I didn't go, I'll have a lot to catch up on which I'll find out tomorrow. :P

I spent the whole day reading this book I borrowed from my sister ( yeah, she calls the book her property... ) and I'm more than halfway through it by now. It's 'The Red Pyramid' by Rock Riordan who is such a good writer. His books are so interesting! Well in my case. Lol.

So I stayed at home, texted people to let them know and so that they could get my sheets, homework and stuff. I ate lunch and went to bed but then Alisa called me. So I chatted with some of my friends - Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ), Alisa and some other friends that I haven't mentioned in my blog before so therefore, I won't mention them. :P I think I chatted for about 15 minutes. :O

So I slept from 1pm till around 3pm when my dad called and I had to answer the phone. So then I decided to get up anyways. BUT I got tired after a few hours again. When I mean tired, I mean like I really need to sleep. ): Still feel like that now. ):

I went to the doctor's around 5pm and he said all this Chinese crap that I couldn't concentrate on since I was so sleepy. But he said there might be medicine that can help my stomache cramps to stop when I get them and he gave me advice on what to do when I feel like I was going to faint.

I just had dinner and my stomache is hurting. Again. D: Hopefully I'll get better (: Sorry - long post about my day, must be tedious to read. el oh el.

At the Restaurant Part II

I forgot to mention that it turned out it was an old lady's birthday there so we had cake. Of course our family had no idea about it and it was a shock and we had no present D: But happy birthday to her althought I'm definite she doesn't read my blog LOL. She's turning 87 I believe (:

One slice of the cake looked like this:



The flavour was chestnut and it was darn good ! Mouth is drooling at the sight of it. ;P





This was part of the dessert. Darn good too !

  Happy Birthday to the lady (:

Thanks for reading,
Michelle xx

Update No. 45 - At the Restaurant

Ok. It's the next day and I know I'm talking about last night but I got home around 11pm and I was really really tired since I woke up really early - 5am. So I'll post about my restaurant trip now. Lol.

I actually had a bad stomache before I left and I was listening to Look at me Now during the whole trip to my friend's new place. My parents were trying to figure out how to use the GPS. el oh el.

SO we got to their place and chatted for a while and even received a wedding invitation from that lady. It was designed like a plane boarding ticket and I actually thought it was until I asked her.

We walked to this RSL club for about 10 minutes which was straight down the road. I was hyper. My sister was like: ' ==" Why are you so happy Michelle? ' And I was literally skipping down the road.

So we went to this Chinese Seafood Restaurant and I still had that damn stomache. Even though I was hyper. So I took some photos with my phone.



Look at the uhm design on the top! It's so awesome (:

 So I went to the toilet with my mum and yes I fainted again. ): Now I really think it's the syncope but I'm going to check with my doctor. He said he doesn't know for sure what it is but I was really dizzy. After about 15 minutes and texting Alisa and Julia, well mostly Alisa. Lol. We started eating and I felt better which was cool (:

Once we left it was like around 10:30pm. Or later actually. So by the time we got home it was 11pm and I went on Facebook to check for updates and stuff. Brushed my teeth and went to bed.

End of Story. (:

Thanks for reading,

Update No. 44 - Old school Fete :D

I just came back from my old school fete which was in my old primary school. The school has changed so much in 3 years :O But then again, 3 years is a long time. Didn't have time to go exploring and having a tour of the place since I had Chinese School in the morning.

The fete started at 10am till 4pm. So I went after lunch and everything. So I went around 1:30-1:45pm.

The tickets for the rides were SOOO expensive. I only brought $35 with me and the band for the unlimited rides was $30!! So I only had $5 left. :O But I met with my old school friends which were about 15 people but then some how this guy named Jay from my current school went as well even though he didn't go to our old school. So many schools in that sentence that it's confusing lol.

Uhmm....this guy won me a toy that I'm going to give to my sister since she wanted me to buy her a toy and I couldn't be bothered didn't have enough time to look for one.



I took a picture before I gave it to my sister (:

 So after thousands of times on the rides, I had to go back home at 4pm on the dot. Too bad I was busy talking and catching up that I didn't know what time it was since I didn't bring my watch for once. So by the time I got home ( I walked ) it was 4:30pm :O Now it's 5:25pm and I'm eating fruit and I've showered to get ready to go out for dinner since we're going to this family's friend's place.

Hope you have a great weekend (:

Michelle xx

Update No. 43 - Lunch

I just came back from Matrix Coaching and I want to show you what I had for lunch (: By the way, I'm listening to...Look at me Now. (:

I had Sweet Chilli Tender Roll with Chicken Crackles/Nuggets. (:



It looks soo....wrong. Lol.




Another view (:




One chicken crackle since I ate the other one.




Alisa's water bottle that had a weird rear end ;)

 Well I have Chinese lessons tomorrow and my old's school fete which I'll be visiting, family dinner and maths tutoring so goodnight (:

Michelle xx

Update No. 42 - Loving 'Look at Me Now'

I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THE SONG: 'Look at me now' by Chris Brown, Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne. Thanks to Julia ( http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/ ) for recommending/ showing me the song (:

School was normal today. I had Maths Competition yesterday and it was so hard that I literally guessed all the questions after 5. There were 30 questions in total. I have a feeling I'm going to get Participation :P Yesterday, Julia and I were trying to rap the song on the train which was really hard. I LOVE IT. :D We're going to keep trying to rap it. Hopefully we'll get there.

Julia didn't come to school today since she was sick. So get better soon Julia (:. I was supposed to have band this morning but since a majority of the band was away at Jeans for Genes Day fundraising, it was cancelled and I didn't know that till I got there. Dang - I woke up early for nothing.

I got to go to Matrix Coaching now.

Until next time,
Michelle xx (:

Update No. 41 - :O

Wow. I haven't updated/blogged for about 5 days. :O That must be some record or something. :O I should do some more blogging. I'll post more tomorrow but this is what I have been doing. I haven't blogged much lately since there really isn't much to talk about in terms of what I do at school. Lol.

So today I had badminton training in the morning which was fun. (: Julia showed me this really fast rap song that I really like. The Busta Rhymes by Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne (: It's really funny at how they can speak so fast. Like the end of an advertisement by the government. Lol. And Julia ( xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com ) posted this post about a girl who can speak the fastest verse in the song which I think is legendary ;)

Link is here: http://xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/2011/08/wednesday-3rd-august.html

Uhm..for lunch, I had this salami sandwich with lettuce, and avocado. By the way, what is salami made out of? I've always wondered. :/

Well nothing much to say but listen to that rap if you haven't already ;)
