Happy MEMORIES !!

In such a good mood now since I'm listening to this song. It's also known as the Mr. Bean theme song. SOO GOOD !! Makes me really happy. So I want to share it. It's 'Boombastic' by Shaggy. <3333

Love,

Crush The SKULL !!

Happy belated Halloween everyone. It's belated because when I was blogging, I actually forgot it was Halloween as shocking as that sounds. That's because I've never celebrated it. ): Someone should invite me to a Halloween party. ;)

Anyways, there's this Wong Fu Production video that I want everyone to watch. It's so freaking awesome. I was watching this home alone and had to make the sound really soft since I was so scared. :P But nevertheless, it's awesome. I apologise for the swearing in it, but it's more funny that way.

Love the female actress - so good ! (:

What do you think?

Love,
Michelle <3

Short Rant: No School !

I'm at home today, though I should go to school to do yoga. I know - so stupid to just go to school to do sport and then come back home again. So not going. :P Plus, I'm sick. :D So I have an excuse.

My English assignment is going to be due next week so I should work on it but I don't feel like it. ): But I eventually will have to do it. Sadly, I haven't done anything today. Just moped around and sat and my mouth ulcer is killing me. Won't be able to talk. :/

Short update, but stay safe. (:

Love,
Michelle <3

Yes I'm Sick.

I'm am sick. The title says it all. I woke up today with a dry mouth and slightly blocked nose and that feeling you get when you're sick. Terrible. ): At least no school tomorrow and I have a true reason for not going. (:

I think I have partially the flu since my sister was sick and she somehow passed it on to me. ): And the fact that I have hayfever is not making it any easier. I keep sneezing. AND I have a mouth ulcer to add. And it's the size of Uranus. T_T Shoot me.

Well, I'll keep blogging. I'm so sleepy right now. ):

Typo Haul

Today, I had Chinese lessons in the morning which was rather...tedious. But at least I'm learning something. I headed to lunch and before I went to eat, I stopped at Typo to buy the things I had to buy. I bought 2 notebooks, and 3 pens. Doesn't seem like much but I couldn't find the others. I was going to buy some manilla folders as well, but they were expensive for much more than I needed - $AU15 for 12 folders. Kinda cheap but I didn't need that many, since I don't even use them.



Was only going to buy one, but then it was cheaper for 2.
1 for $AU6.95, 2 for $AU10




$AU6.95 - I wanted the moustache ones but couldn't find them in a packet of 3.

 After lunch - which was sushi ( didn't take a picture though :P ), I went to Priceline and Hot Dollar to grab some other things as well. At Priceline, I bought a crackle nail polish since it was on sale and I've always been intrigued with the idea of it. (:



$5.95 - was $8.95

 At Hot Dollar, I got some post-it notes. They used to sell things priced at $2.50. They've raised the price to $2.80. ): Meanie poops. :P And it's not that they don't have bad business either.




Can anyone translate Japanese? Even though I do Jap - can't translate this. ):

 I went to the Chinese herbalist afterwards in the city and bought some Breadtop, which I didn't take a picture of. Just to update - I'm reading this book :




Heroes of Olympus - The Son of Neptune, by Rick Riordan. Book review on when I finish. LOVE THIS SERIES ! <3


Apparently, Apple released a cheaper and improved iPod Touch. I'm sad that I bought my iPod so soon now. ): And they have it in white. DAMNDAMNDAMN ! I wanted the white one. ): But not going to get it, obviously.

Well that's it for now.

Michelle <3

15 Day Challenge: 4 Bad Things About Me

1. I get pissed extremely easily and then try to piss the other person off. Not good. :P

2. I love to annoy people with grossed out facts and just plain gross and disturbing topics, partically when they're eating. Too bad. :P

3. Overly sensitive. I try not to take negative comments to heart, but it still hurts. Even if I don't show it. I actually cry a lot. Hmm...

4. Exaggerate things way too much. Especially when I'm retelling a story. Eg. I should say: "His arse was huge." but I say: "His arse was the size of Uranus." LOL :P -> hope you got it ;)

Love,
Michelle <3

Exams are Officially OVER !!

I've finally finished my exams !! So glad. Also means I can blog again. So since there's still exams on Monday, but I don't have any, I'm not going to school even though you're meant to for sport. No one is going and I don't want to be alone so I won't be going. Need to think of an excuse. :P

Today, I had my Japanese exam which was so hard. The listening part was the part I worried on the most, but it wasn't as bad as I expected. I got most of it, but not all of it, which is definitely an improvement ! So proud of myself I can understand what they're saying if I concentrate really hard !

I had Matrix coaching today with Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) and it was alright. The only highlight of it was when we got to watch some videos to answer the questions.

I'll be going to the Chinese herbalist tomorrow in the city to have a check up. Before that though, hopefully I'll get to grab a couple of items from Typo since I want to stock up some items for next year. Early - I know but I like to do things prepared.

Julia wants me to go watch Paranormal Activity 3 with her next Sunday but I'm too chicken. I have to watch the trailer first. :P I've heard the first couple ones were horrible and boring so don't know if I should go for this one. (:

I'll be working on another video. This one is a continuation of the commerce project. I'll be making a separate video on the bloopers since I wanted to add more. I can't find the videos at the moment so hopefully it'll be up here by next weekends.

I'll keep updating !

Stay safe,

End of Exams....Nearly !

Hey,

I haven't updated in ages and I haven't said 'hey' or 'hi' in the beginning of my posts in ages as well ! I'll just update that I'll be finishing off the 15 Day Challenge and I'll link all the days I've done so far later.

My exams started on Monday and I'm finishing on Friday. So now, 6 down and two more to go !! Yay ! After all my exams, I'll definitely post more since I'm planning to go shopping at Typo later on Saturday.



 There's this Australian boy who can sing amazingly well. I love his voice !! It's so much much better than Justin Bieber. Check out his channel -> http://www.youtube.com/user/jordanjansenmusic?blend=2&ob=4

And this song is really good. He sung it when he was 11 and now he's around 14 years old. (:

Enjoy. (:

1. I can look at them directly in the eye.

2. Don't try as hard to continue the conversation.

5. I can talk easily to them but don't think of them as more than friends.

6. Smile 85% of the time. (:

7. Not as into the conversation.

8. Not as many topics to talk about. Especially if we're not into the same things.

9. Don't talk to them as often as everyday. Only need to talk to them like once a month. Lol. I can live with that. (:

10. Don't say 'hi' first. Sometimes I do, but not when they're friends are around. :P

11. If they confess they did like me, I'll have to laugh it off or just bluntly say: "I'm sorry. I don't see you in the same way. I think we're better off as friends."

Love,
Michelle <3

15 Day Challenge: 12 Signs You're Into Someone

These can apply online or face-to-face. I'll tell you if it's online. (:

1. I try to say 'Hi' first. Or if it's online, I actually have lots of tactics up my sleeve to see if they like me back. It's hard to explain. If they're online on Messenger, and I want to know if they like me back, I would pretend I have connection issues and sign in and out heaps of times to see if they'll notice me and talk. :D If that doesn't work, I'll talk first. (:

2. Smile and nod at everything they say. And listen really carefully so I can ask questions back. (: Shows I'm listening.

3. Laugh at their jokes even if it's not funny.

4. Look at them when I think them aren't looking at me.

5. Try to continue the conversation. Or if I'm online and I want to see if they're into me as well, I would leave the conversation kinda hanging, and see if they reply. (:

6. Try to find their contact information discreetly. Or give hints for them to ask me instead so we can exchange information. :D I'm so cheeky. Lol.

7. Say a lot of things like : "Aw, poor you." ; "That must've been so hard. ):" Usually online. Too chicken to say it in person because I say it so awkwardly. ):

8. Hard to tell them goodbye. And end up trying to continue the conversation just a little bit more.

9. If I haven't seen or talked to them in a while, I would text them or try to contact them again, even if they won't reply back. Just to see if they're still alive and well. ! (:

10. I tease them.

11. Try to cheer them up when they're sad. Even if it takes my precious studying time. :P

12. Not a lot of eye contact. It's hard for me to look at someone directly in the eye if I like them.

Love
Michelle <3

15 Day Challenge: 13 Ways to Break the Ice

I've finally found the time to blog. Need to study after this though.

So "breaking the ice" is when you become go past the 'awkward stage' between a person and become more comfortable with them. These are just my ways that I personally use to 'break the ice' and this applies to both girls and guys. :P From personal experience. (:

1. Break the silence with open-ended questions instead of closed questions. This allows the person to talk more and you learn more about them. Double win ! (:

2. Listen to their responses and ask more questions. This usually helps because then they'll talk more and it'll be less awkward. And shows your awesome listening skills. Lol.

3. If I have no idea what they are talking about, I would just nod and smile but not comment just in case I say something completely off-topic.

4. Ask how their day was. To be polite and moderately curious.

5. Make sure there's eye contact. Otherwise, I would look dodgy. I always look dodgy. :P

6. Agree with what they have to say. Usually when you do this, the person is more happier if they say something you agree to or believe in as well.

7. Make jokes to make them laugh. Laughing makes the atmosphere more fun. :D So definitely jokes.

8. Laugh at their jokes as well though, even if it's lame.

9. Hand gestures. It's really awkward if you talk like a robot with hands along your sides.

10. Keep to 'normal' topics. Don't go off to weird areas. Eg. "What kind of colour is your poop? Mine's GREEN !!! "

11. Know if the topic is getting too personal and up-close and sense it when the topic is boring the other person. Notice if they start yawning. Time to move on ! :P

12. Comment on how nice they look today, or if you're too chicken to say that, then comment on how good their clothes look, or accessories. (:

13. Just remember to smile, maintain eye contact, and good body language. (:

Hope this helped other people as well !

Michelle xx

Quick Update

I think I should explain my absence on Blogger lately. I've had to study hardcore for my exams in next week. So I haven't had the time to continue with the 15 Day Challenge at the moment. I didn't want to put no effort into my posts so I'll just let you guys know that I won't be blogging for about a week. Then I'll definitely blog again.

(:

Stay safe,

15 Day Challenge: 14 Not So Basic Facts About Me

1. I avoid eye contact when talking to people, unless they are someone relatively close. I find it really uncomfortable when people stare back at me and so I look away.

2. I get anxiety attacks. I think this is where my stomach cramps come in. ): I just researched this, so not confirming, but it seems like it.

3. I hate it when people stick out their tongue when they draw or write and move it around. So distracting and gross. Lol.

6. I love taking photos of things. Maybe someday, I will look over those photos again and recall memories. And then make a scrapbook !! Double win ! Lol. :P

8. I don't like people giving me earrings as a last minute birthday/present. It's so annoying. Everyone has done that and now, I have a bazillion earrings that I don't even wear. Don't believe me? Maybe I should take a picture of my earring rack. It was supposed to hold around 64 pairs and I can't even fit them all on. D: And the only ones that I bought by myself are only about 5 pairs. Omg.

9. I get pissed very easily. Over the littlest things even. Especially over my sister. She is so annoying. =="

10. I get over protective over people that close to me that are going through torment because of someone else. I hate it. Eurgh.

11. I love matches. I bet people are going to avoid me if I say I like to light a match. Honestly, it's so fun. Oh gosh ; I sound like this really bad gangster with issues on playing with fire.

12. I know how to play other instruments, but just not good at them. Lol.

13. I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up. Maybe a make up artist. But it's so freaking hard and there's so much competition. =="

14. I wash my hair every single day.

I am So LAME !

Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) recently tagged me to do this challenge which I'll be starting today. And the questions are on this picture. So that I wouldn't forget, I put this as my wallpaper since I keep forgetting what I'm supposed to write. Omg. Lame. Anyways, the picture is here :

LOL. I shall start it in a new post. (:

Saturday Shopping (:

Today, had Chinese lessons in the morning. So tedious. Lol. No offense.

Went to buy some groceries and I went to Diva and they had a sale on. I bought this ring that was $5 after half price taken off. (:



The ring

  I bought some dry shampoo to try out and it had a free bottle of hairspray with it.

 I also bought the magazine Dolly but I realised I picked up the wrong gift that I wanted so hopefully I can change it tomorrow even if I don't have a receipt and that newsagency didn't hand out receipts.

I had maths tutoring afterwards and the guy gave me this really hard test on coordinate geometry. Coordinate Geometry shouldn't even be hard !!! I finished the book "Bloodlines" by Richelle Mead which I posted a picture of it before. It's pretty good ! Eagerly waiting for the next one :D I'll write a review on it soon. (: It's about high school. (:

The next post still hasn't been finished. LOL. I'm working on it. (: And I'm still waiting for the Duke of Ed photos to be sent but I'll post that later if it's not here tonight. (:

Have a great weekend !

Heart Touching Youtube Video

This video is about this girl named Ellen and her sister named Amy from Canberra and Ellen is in a life-threatening medical condition. She only had one wish which was to meet Lindy Tsang who is known as bubz on Youtube. So this video was so heart touching and I thought I'd share it with everyone. I kept thinking to myself to not cry but it's very hard not to.

Enjoy.

Love,
Michelle <3

Duke of Ed Fail

Yeah..Uhm I went to Duke of Ed thingy yesterday. I walked the first 6km which turned out to be 10km for our group since we got lost and went on the wrong track. ): Walked an extra 4km for nothing. :/ And the American teacher that was with us was saying how we were on the right track but honestly, I think he was just basically following us. Lol. He was busy enjoying the plants or something.

Anyways, I rolled my ankle really badly. ): It was painful and so I practically limped the way through the next approximately 3kms. We got to the campsite around 2PM or maybe earlier but by then, we were practically the last group to arrive due to getting lost. We pitched up tents and there was a playground !! So unexpected and so fun as well. Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) and I played on the swings, and this ride called the 'Flying Fox' and it was soo fun !! We got pictures but I don't think I should put it up...:/

That evening, I got a stomach ache. ): I know - such bad timing. So I took Buscopan but it didn't really help. Just made me want to puke really badly. So I told the teachers and my year advisor took me home. ): I felt so bad since Julia had to sleep on her own that night and that's exactly what her mum didn't want her to do. I shall feel her wrath later. (: Again, I'm very very very sorry to the group members who are reading this.

I got home, showered and went to bed. Fell asleep like in 2 minutes. The teacher told me not to go to school today, so I didn't. (: I thought it was hilarious how a teacher was saying that. :P

Went to Matrix coaching today. It started at 4:30PM. I realised I wasn't in Julia's class and my class was really naughtly and kinda loud. So this girl named Christine and I wanted to swap classes. I'll either do that tomorrow and ring them up or I'll do it next week. Again, I had a stomach ache there. It must be some sort of anxiety attack or something. ==" I took Buscopan after excusing myself to the bathroom and felt better after a while. (:

Anyways ! Studied a bit today, wasn't in the mood for it though since my ankle was throbbing and so I put an ice-pack on it. Felt better straight away.

I'll do a separate post with photos after Julia sends me them. (: If she is that is. I'm writing the other post that I promised. The first one is up : http://ilikestarryskies.blogspot.com/2011/10/rant-things-i-believebelieved-in.html

So I'll update later for tomorrow. (:

Child Abuse

I found this really sad and touching poem on child abuse about this girl names Sarah. I don't own this, and I don't know who the author is since I got this through chain mail. A little comment about it from me : Whoever is out there that abuses their child - don't do it. I don't know what you are trying to do, if it's anger management problems I think you need help. Don't let it out on your child. They don't deserve your abuse when they've only been introduced to the world by you.

My name is Sarah
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I cannot see,

I must be stupid,
I must be bad,
What else could have made
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better,
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my Mommy
Would still want to hug me.

I can't speak at all,
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.

When I awake I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home.

When my Mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight.
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Charlie's Bar.

I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
Against the wall.
I try and hide
From his evil eyes
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry.

He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my fault
That he suffers at work.

He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.
He's already locked it
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.

I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.
"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate.

The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!

And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor.

My name is Sarah
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy
killed me.

Off to Duke of Ed Again

I'm going off for Duke of Ed tomorrow (: I think I still have stomach issues but if that is the case I'll go back home. I don't mind either way since my yearly exams are coming up and haven't studied much in the holidays. ): So doesn't matter either way. (: So I'm going to bed early since I feel sleep deprived. ):

So today, I had a maths test which wasn't that hard. I wasn't expecting much so that was ok. (: I had badminton training in the morning which was fun. :D Played with Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) FINALLY ! :D After school, had knitting club which was fun as well. Nearly finished with my knitted square and I'll donate that to the teacher who would make it into this blanket for those who need it. (:

Sorry for the short updates lately. Not much to say. Yesterday, I went to the doctor's to check up on my blood test results and what is wrong with my stomach issues. I'll talk about that in a separate post after Duke of Ed. (:

Stay safe,
Michelle <3

Rant: Things I Believe/Believed In

I had really weird things that I used to believe and still believe in. (: So I thought I'd share. :D

1. That if you had to much s*x you would die.
This is one of the weirdest things I've ever heard of. I heard it when I was around 10 years old and people in my class were talking about what s*x was but no one really knew. They just said it was a bad thing and if you had too much, you would die. So obviously, I thought s*x was really bad for you and you can't have it. Lol. And obviously, it's a myth. Don't know if anyone else has heard of this one. :P

2. You get large boobs if you eat a lot of paw paw.
I heard this one last year. I don't believe it, necessarily since I don't know if it's true. (: So I've been kinda avoiding pawpaw. :P

3. If girls do a lot of push-ups, your boobs stop growing/disappear.
Uhm...I've heard this one from this guy that was teaching sports someday. I can't remember when. I still believe this though. :P

4. If you run/do sports straight after eating, your intestines won't digest your food properly and you have to get an operation.
I think this is a Chinese superstition, but I still avoid doing sports ( especially running ) after a meal. I don't want to have surgery. ):

5. If you eat and read at the same time, you would have digestion problems when you grew up.
I believed this and still do since I don't want to take chances. I heard this from my dad who wanted me to eat faster and concentrate on eating. Lol.

6. If you swallowed a watermelon seed, you'll grow a watermelon tree in your stomach.
I think my mum made this one up or something. I believed it when I was younger but OBVIOUSLY I don't believe it anymore. And watermelons don't grow on trees. :P

7. If you swallow gum, you'll have it in your stomach forever.
There were a lot of stories about gum and what happened when you swallowed it when you're small. I'm assuming now, that if you swallowed it, it'll just go through like any other food. But I do avoid swallowing it. :P

8. If you played with those four-legged garden lizards that tails' fall off, the tail would come off and go into your ear and never come back out.
My dad told me this when I was really really young. I was freaked out and would scream whenever I saw one of those lizards. But now I know that the tail would come off, but if your ear is no where near the tail, it won't go inside. :P

9. If you opened your mouth while you sleep, all kinds of bugs would go in it and pee.
My parents told me this and I believed it. Well kinda. They made me so paranoid =="

10. If you accidently drank your own pee, you would die painfully.
I don't know why this was even told to me, but anyways, I have a childhood friend who was really young and apparently he peed in his pants. And he happened to have his drink bottle there, but he had no idea he peed in his pants. So when  he drank it, he tasted his own pee on the cap. ==" He said it was salty. My other friends told me that if you drunk your own pee, it would kill you. But obviously, I know now that isn't true. (:

That's it for now. (:

School Starts !

School started today and it didn't start off well for me. I had a really really bad stomache. I know - AGAIN ! So when I got to school I felt better. (:

We got to wear our senior skirts today so that was a plus. (: Though it was really uncomfortable. I think mine was a size too big or something because it kept sliding down. ):

Nothing to say - I've got two posts that are in construction now so keep posted for that ! (:

Anyhoo - need to go to bed now. (:

Love,

Rhodes Shopping Centre

Yesterday ( Saturday - 8/10/11 ) we went to Rhodes Shopping Centre to eat at this really good yumcha restaurant named Phoenix. (:



The logo (: Image Source : Google.

 So after eating, we went shopping since the centre was so big. I went to Typo to buy some stationary and bought two notebooks for next year. (:




Love this one ! (:

 They were two for $15, otherwise $10 for one. (: We went to buy my Duke of Edinburgh stuff after that. And yes, I have another walk. This is the second and last one for the Bronze Award. (: Excited for that. (:

Now I need to finish my Commerce assignment which I haven't finished and is due tomorrow. :O So I don't want to go out today. :P

Tomorrow is school which I have mixed feelings about. I'm happy that I get to see my friends again, I'm sad that holidays are over and I'm pissed that the teachers have made all the due dates for assignments, and tests on the first week back. My brain lags on the first week. D:

Haircut Photos (:

I ended up taking one photo of my new hair from the front. (:

Love,
Michelle <3

Haircut !

This is an update post for yesterday ( Friday - 7/10/11 ).

So I went out with Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) to eat lunch at this place where I've posted pictures of the food there. Link to the post is here : http://ilikestarryskies.blogspot.com/2011/10/daylight-saving.html

We were actually so early there, that we were the first customers. :O It was so awkward, but after a while it was fine. (: We just chatted...

After lunch, we decided to go "window shopping" and so we went to Westfield. At Target we each bought this Xmas Gift Set from Rimmel London.

I haven't opened it yet but oh well. (: I really liked the red suitcase boxy thing which would be really good for travel. (:

So after Julia left, I had to go and get a haircut. Before we ate lunch, I actually booked an appointment there for 3PM. So at 3PM, I went there and got a haircut with this lady named Chloe. I didn't take before and after photos because I couldn't be bothered. :P

But technically, I told her to thin out the ends but she didn't so the ends are blunt. ): Oh well - I'll just tie up my hair more often and wait for it to grow out.

So after cutting my hair, I went home, showered and had to leave to go to my friend's place for dinner.

After dinner, we played on their Wii with this game called Super Brothers Smash Brawl or something. Lol. It was fun, but I kept dying. ): Just if you're curious, I used the characters : Link, Snake and Zelda/Sheik. (: By playing I meant pressing every button on the remotes. LOL. Before playing that game though, we played Super Mario Kart. Died in that as well. Lol. Fun nevertheless ! (:

Movie Review: Abduction

I actually missed the first 2-5 minutes of the movie since I was late for it but nothing much had happened anyways. The movie beginning was kind of tedious but when the action began it was good ! Well I personally like violence movies so this was good to watch. (: Sounds bad. Lol.

Anyways, they call this movie partially a thriller which to me, isn't as scary/disturbing as other thrillers ( Suckerpunch ). The way the actors reacted when someone died in front of them was really really realistic. I can imagine myself reacting that way so I thought they did an excellent job.

This movie starrs Taylor Lautner and co-star Lily Collins. They both did a great job. (: In my opinion. Though I do wish there was more action than talking. :P Still interesting though. :D

Description:
"For as long as he can remember, Nathan Harper (Taylor Lautner) has had the uneasy feeling that he’s living someone else’s life. When he stumbles upon an image of himself as a little boy on a missing persons website, all of Nathan’s darkest fears come true: he realizes his parents are not his own and his life is a lie, carefully fabricated to hide something more mysterious and dangerous than he could have ever imagined.

Just as he begins to piece together his true identity, Nathan is targeted by a team of trained killers, forcing him on the run with the only person he can trust, his neighbor, Karen (Lily Collins). Every second counts as Nathan and Karen race to evade an army of assassins and federal operatives. But as his opponents close in, Nathan realizes that the only way he’ll survive – and solve the mystery of his elusive biological father – is to stop running and take matters into his own hands."

Watch the trailer :

Rating: 8.5/10 - Not enough action for me ;)
Recommendation: If you REALLY don't have anything to watch or you just adore Taylor Lautner ;)

Another Unproductive Day ):

Today, woke up rather late - 10AM :O Then realised we wanted to watch 'Abduction' and so we headed out to watch it. (: It was good. Lots of action :D Taylor Lautner starred in it along with Lily Collins (: And there is a sub-character from 'Avatar'. Not the 'Last Airbender', but the blue monkeys ;) Forgot the actress's name but she's a really good actress, and she had acted in heaps of horror movies. (: I'll post a review on 'Abduction' later.

So after watching, we went out to eat lunch as well. Had a chicken kebab which I didn't take a picture of since there wasn't much to look at. :P After that, we went home and I haven't done much work. I've worked on my Commerce Assignment ( practically wrote one word ): ) and worked on my Japanese speaking.

Getting slightly excited for school since we get to wear our senior skirts now. :D

Love,
Michelle xx

Movie Review: Johnny English Reborn



 This was a really really funny and great movie to watch. A family favourite (: It was such a hilarious comedy with action. I've seen the first one of this and it's just as hilarious. (: It definitely has lived up to its standards and this one is slightly better since it has more awesome gidgets and gadgets added to it. (:

The movie trailer :

Rating: 9.8/10 - It's lost some of its marks since I didn't exactly go 'Wow'. But it's a movie that's worth watching :D

Recommendation: Watch it if you miss Mr. Bean action ;)

Thanks for reading,

Daylight Saving !

It's finally daylight saving time, well it was - last night. (: You have to move the clock ahead one hour. (:

Anyways, I have an update for yesterday ( Saturday ). We were going to go to Port Stephens but we didn't go in the end. Dunno why. :P So in the morning, my sister and I went outside to play some badminton while the weather was holding up. (: Then we went jogging and went to play in the park next door to our house. That was fun !

After that, we had to go shopping so we left to eat lunch first. We went to this place that I'll be taking Julia ( http://www.littlemisscrayons.wordpress.com/ ) to next Friday to eat. I took some pictures of the food. (:



Creamy Mushroom Chicken Soup. I always order this when I go there. So damn good !




And I always order this as well - Baked Portugese Chicken something. Lol




What my dad ate - Can't remember what it's called but it's baked as well (:




What my sister chose ( my mum mixed up half of it if you're wondering why it looks so strange :P ) - Spaghetti Bolognese. It's baked as well !




My sister's and my mum's ordered drink. I usually order this as well but I was too full. :P Red bean Ice Drink ! Really good. (:

 After shopping, we ( my sister, mum and I ) decided we wanted to go and watch a movie so we decided to go watch 'Johnny English Reborn'. It was really good. It still lives up to the standards of the first one. :D I'm going to write a review on the movie soon !



 Now I want to watch 'Abduction' because I saw the trailer for that when I went with Julia and Bob to watch 'Cowboys and Aliens'. (:

Before the movie, we had some time to do something so we went to Dymocks and I bought a book. It's called 'Bloodlines' by Richelle Mead. It's kind of a continuation from the 'Vampire Academy' books which I LOVE. Julia finds it disturbing. :P Anyways ! Can't wait to read it. :D



As you can see, it was on Sale. (:

 Today, I woke up kinda late since the time was screwed up. ): Oh well. I have to try and work now. Haven't done any work at ALL ! And I just realised next week I have :

- My commerce assignment is due on Cadbury
- I have to hand in notes for Duke of Ed trip and I haven't written my log on it. :O
- My English assignment is due ):
- I have a maths test on 'Factorising Algebraic Expressions'
- THEN I HAVE DUKE OF ED TRIP ! D:
- Japanese Speaking Exam D: Have. not. studied.
- Then comes my Yearly exams ):

I'm screwed. ): I need to work.

Love,
Michelle <3
