Hopelessly Romantic

It is now official! I have finally finished my exams, bring on the summer! Whoo hoo!

So, with uni out of the way, I find myself going back to work on Monday. Yay for getting money, boo for having to wear uniform jackets in this sweltering heat. Definitely not looking forward to that when I head back to the salt mines, but I guess it wouldn't really matter for too long since our contract with the head office will be over soon, forcing me to look for another job. I guess its not too bad of a thing since this may be the incentive I've needed to put my CV in for some medical reception jobs and such.

In other news, me and the lovely eloni have a collab fic going called Cold Moon. Check it out. ;)

And I hope to get Strangers in the Dark updated soon. Such a failure of an author. OTL.

Ah, and I finally got my giftee for the FLOL Holiday Exchange and I'm quite excited for what I have planned. I just hope I can pull it off well. xD

~EDIT: Oh, and I forgot to mention, huge huge huge huge thanks to eloni and x3sn0w for the post-exams anti-stress gift. I'm still going gaga over it. Thank you both soooooooooo very much. I have plans for your Christmas presents. <333

This is a coupla days late but Happy Belated Birthday to azdvmc. Hope it was an awesome one, mate. : D

And welcome bitter_tea and thalaki to my journal. Its usually filled with mundane things but I'll try to keep up with both of your entries. : D

And apologies for the three of you who requested something for my pic meme. I have the pictures taken already but am waiting to get an adaptor for my lap top so I can get the pics posted for your viewing displeasure. Not to mention apologies on not being active nor commenting on your journals, I shall get around to it as soon as my hectic schedule allows for it.

And finally, for those who're interested, I had my first final today for Microbiology 2. Not the best exam I've ever taken but I'm hoping I did enough for a pass. I'm not exactly confident though since I tallied the potential marks up afterwards and fell short of the needed fifty. On a lighter note, I got a 6/8 for my HMD lab book, which puts me on a Distinction for the subject so far. Go me. Lets just hope I don't do too bad in that final so I can at least get a credit for the subject, though a Distinction would be wicked awesome.

Thank God its Friday.

I am so ready for the weekend. Time to chill from uni and work and try and get my game plan together on how best to cram for my finals, which, the timetable was posted on Tuesday and looks like this:

Microbiology II - Monday, 9th of November (1:30pm)
Pathological Basis of Disease - Friday, 13th of November (8:30am)
The Appendicular Skeleton - Monday, 16th of November (8:30am)
Human Metabolism and Disease - Friday, 20th of November (8:30am)

Which, I have to say, I'm pretty happy with how spaced out my exams are, not to mention its in the first two weeks of the exam period so I get an extra week of holidays. The only crappy thing is the 8:30am exams. Bloody hell, exams should only be held in the afternoon.

Apart from this, nothing much else going on in my life. Things are pretty static at the moment. Though it won't be long until it starts getting hectic. XD

Aaaaand, I leave you all with a meme to take part in if you so desire. Its called pretty as a picture meme and the rules are as follows:

Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you're interested in - it can be anything from the house I live in to my favorite shoes. Leave your choice here as a comment, and I will reciprocate by taking the pictures and posting them as an LJ entry. Ask as for as many as you want. That way you get to know a little bit about my life, if you're remotely interested in it. =p

Update attempt needed and so I'm posting. : D

One of my cousins passed away last week, so we had the funeral on Thursday. It was good to see my aunties and my mum's side of the family again, they've always been so nice to me.

Been tired and dragging lately. Gosh, just feels like there is so much crap going on in my life right now, but I can't seem to prioritise and get my act together. *facepalms* Bloody hell, I've got a month left before my finals, so hopefully I can get my head straight and get down to it.

And I freakin' need to get this tooth pulled out. I've actually had to take meds to ease the pain, and I never take meds. Ever.

/stupid update is stupid

Remember the guy I said had a heart attack? Well, he ended up dying. They think he died on the way to the hospital. When they told me Friday morning, I just sat there stunned.

And after having such a blah day on Friday, me and the girls went out on Saturday and I have to say, that was the best thing that could have happened to me. After feeling so weirded out lately, it was nice just to let my hair down and go out and laugh and dance the night away. I've got a croaky voice and am delightfully drained from my day out. Best weekend in a long time. : D

Aaaaaaaand, here's another meme. XD

( words )

A man had a heart attack at work today. And when they were wheeling him out, the were giving him CPR, meaning he wasn't breathing.

I've just been so weirded out this week. I can't describe exactly how I'm feeling, but I feel at odds with everything. I'm so restless and ready to move on, but to what, I have no idea. I haven't been able to write or finish my fanfics, and I keep feeling like I'm missing out on something. I'm so.... blah right now.

And its been a while since I last prayed and read the Bible. I wonder if its my spirit that's making me feel so restless... >.>

Anyway, enough with the melancholy. Here's a meme I stole from the goddess, eloni

( three things meme )

I've officially completed one assignment and my online quiz. All I have left to do is my Micro assignment and my Patho mid-semester and I can relax for a week and a half. : D

And because I'm procrastinating, I'm doing my first ever meme. xD

Took this from demoneyeskyo87.

1. List your top seven ships.
2. Put all of them in order of your love for them; 7 to 1, 1 being your favorite.
3. Name their fandom.
4. Supply photos for said people.

( Ahoy, me shippin' maties! )

Really. Who the hell was I kidding? Of course it wouldn't work. LOL. How did I talk myself into it, to allow myself to even dream or even entertain the notion that it could possibly work? What the hell is wrong with me? Did I not learn anything the first time around? XD

I gotta quit phailing at life.

Ah, crap. Its been like a month since my last update.Yes, yes, you may whip me if you like.

Updates: Well, I collab wrote my first IchiHime fanfic for Tanabata. Turned out alright, I suppose. The reviewers seem to like it, so can't be all that bad. xD

Ahh, uni. Sloooooowly killing my life. Hahah, I forgot to post after my last entry about my results. Good news is that I passed all of my subjects! I'm officially halfway through my degree now. xD Now, if only I can pass this semester... I'm falling behind already... -______-

Haha, and I'm really phailing with showing pics of my hair. Hahah, maybe one day I'll actually post something. I'm not too good at taking pictures, lol.

Longer update later. <3

OK, peeps. Its the night of grace before D-Day.

My uni results come out tomorrow for the first semester of this year. I'm pretty OK about three of the subjects, the only subject that I could seriously be having problems with is Proteins & Genes (BioChemistry). If you guys remember, this was the final that I only knew 15 MCQ out of 100. :cry

Anyway, so if you don't hear from me tomorrow, its because I'm already on my way to a hot tub in the Swiss region, hiding from my parents. : D

Fingers crossed, please.

On a lighter note, I cut my hair. I promised belabellissima that I would post a pic, so I'll get around to it tomorrow or something like that. And, haha, a certain user got what was coming to her. This makes me LULZ. XD

Because this really needs to be pimped:

A week long celebration proudly brought to you by the NanaoxShunsui FC at BA! Click here for more details!

So please please please, take part if you can. We really would like to see the fandom expand. Plus, as an added incentive, we have... cookies?

Have I ever mentioned how much I really despise working in the city? 'Cause I do. Tremendously. Though I guess I should be grateful since there are alot of jobless people out there -_-;;

And just for the pure LULZ of it, here's a vid that relieved my boredom for today :D

Russia has talent? Why, yes, of course they do XD


And on an entirely unrelated note, the NanShun Love Fest stuff are coming along (though I'm not sure how well), learning the dance I have to do for my 21st is major suckage. Please, oh, please, don't let my make a fool of myself!!! And I posted my first GrimmNel fic. Go me. :3

"FFFFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Or at least, for another month XD Yes that's right, my last final, Topics in Physiology, was today, and I think I'm in for a credit on that one. Which is not too bad but I had really hoped for a distinction (that bloody last question tripped me up).

Anyways, now that that's done, I can finally work on my Tanabata submissions, my love fest entries and getting out another chapter for 'Strangers in the Dark' *cheers*

EDIT: stole this from broken_sai

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

^You guys know who you are. Thanks for being the best sisters and friends in the world XD

I've never cussed so much before in my life.

And for me, that's really saying something. My Proteins and Genes (Biochem) final was this morning and I've never before sat in an exam in which I pretty much knew none of the answers to the questions. All up, I think I answered 15 out of 100 MC questions definitively and pretty much just winged my way through the other 85.

I think its a definite possibility that I could be repeating this subject next semester, though I have no one else to blame except for myself. Argh, I'm so pissed at myself, I think I'm gonna go play basketball tonight, take my frustrations out on the other team. Fingers crossed that everyone did as crap as I did and that our scales get marked up in the end.

Microbiology final was today, in which I found myself finishing almost 50minutes ahead of the finish time. This leaves me with two conclusions:

1) I actually did well with answering them and all that studying paid off

or,

2) I'm delusional, misinterpreted all of the questions and will probably repeat the subject next semester.

I'm hoping its the first conclusion.

Oh I have been such a bad friend :(

Signing in after how long of an absence is major fail. I profusely apologise to everyone.. I promise to go through and comment on everyone page (thats if you still remember me *tear*)

My parents have found a venue for my 21st birthday. They really want it to happen in 3 weeks time, which is absolutely crap because its very short notice. I hope people will be able to make it *sigh*

Finals week and then living the free life. Fingers crossed I can pull my way through to the finish line...

On a lighter note: Strangers in the Dark hit triple digits! Whoo hoo!! 110? Hell yeah!

Ok, so I realised how badly I've been failing at everything lately and keeping my livejournal updated is NOT the exception. Gah!

To anyone who's still wondering whether or not I'm alive and kicking, the answer is yes. Here's to hoping that I can keep this journal alive and kicking. Gomen nasai.

To the victims of the VIC Bush Fires:

My deepest and most heartfelt apologies go out to you. May you be able to find a measure of peace and solace during this difficult time, may you be able to rebuild a new life and start a new journey as you forge ahead after much difficulty and heartache, and may the generosity and love of the surrounding community help pick you back up onto your feet.

For all who would like to dig deep and help out, you can make donations at the red cross web site here. Alternatively, you can shop at your local COLES today and all of Friday's profits will go towards helping those in need.

Please keep the families in Victoria in your hearts, prayers and thoughts this following week.

A very Happy Australia Day to everyone down under and all you aussie's abroad!

I know this is a day late but whatever, sue me.

Hoping everyone had a great Christmas and New Years! Hope you got what you wanted.

A big thumbs up to Jelena Dokic in her match tonight, all the aussies will be cheering you on! A big thumbs down to those wanting to change the date of Australia Day. We sympathise, believe me, mate, we do, but its in the past. Let it go and help towards building a bigger and better future for ALL Australians!

I forgot what time I was rostered to start today seeing as I had spent most of my Friday trying for some time off. And so, Monday morning rolls around and I, convinced that I started at 7 as opening, walked into Martin Place only to find my on-site supervisor already here. Dismayed, I asked him what time I was rostered on and we checked the roster only to find out that I was to start at 12!

And so, here I am at 7:50am still twiddling my thumbs in the back room, waiting for 12. Its going to be a long day...
