Things I love Thursday

 This past week has kind of been hectic, with the first semester of uni drawing to a close this one single psychology assignment is really weighing me down and it doesn't really help when you could be distracted by ANYTHING. But have no fear! At least other things can keep me motivated (:

 

 Baked goods and catch ups ♥

Last week, Jess came over for a catch up day! Oh the glorious cake mixes we inhaled and the mindfucking movies we watched. Being the lazy uni students we were, we couldn't be bothered making the whole cake/cupcakes from scratch so we ended up buying premade mixes instead, threw all the ingredients together and voila! CAKE. Damn tasty cake. Mmmm nom nom nom.

 Iced treats in winter and gossip ♥

Also met up with my dearest uni friend, Julie. After consuming our weight's worth of ramen, we had much to gossip about. We talked about everything. And I mean everything. And by the end of the night we were both stuffed to the brim with mangoes and ice in the middle of winter. Did I mention it was absolutely freezing? Gosh, I hadn't laughed with this girl in so long. Love her :)

Dessert shops and my pooface ♥

LOOK HOW PRETTY THE TIRAMISU IS. Enough said.

Long naps and a bunny ♥

Pizza, champagne glasses and video games. And study ♥

Supposed to study in the library until I realised I had a license and I could actually drive places. Ended up back at Jess' place where we indulged in smoking garlic bread, pizza, coke in champagne glasses and Iron Man! Then afterwards we slaughtered some zombies and then each other. In Super Smash Bros. Aw yiss.

I really wanna shoot some zombies right now.

Little things that made me giggle with glee:

Yuki growling at me after I forgot to feed him breakfast, I'm sorry! Such a little cutie ♥ Late night conversations every single night ♥ Not to mention, bedtime stories ♥ an unlimited supply of cuddles ♥ winter! the cuddle season! how lucky am I? ;) ♥ hot water bottles and stuffed animals ♥ bubble tea and chocolate ice cream ♥ The Hunger Games! now moving on to 'The Other Boleyn Girl' love love love! ♥ almost acquiring all the ponies available in Happy Meals! Rarity you are my last! ♥ boxes of chocolates ♥ Pokemon gachapon balls, damn you Leafeon you have eluded me again grr ♥ late night fast food deliveries ♥ 

Despite exams looming and this assignment due - life is pretty darn good :)

Things I Love Thursday

I realise that I haven't been very grateful for many things in the past few months and that makes me very sad. I also realise that it isn't Thursday either, but in fact, Tuesday. Screw that, you can be grateful everyday :)

Luckily for me, I can be grateful now. And the things that I'm grateful for these past few weeks:

Haiyen and Aivan being there for me no matter ♥ meep meep and noot noot (lol we're fucking retarded) ♥ Rambo ♥ Yuki being the naughtiest and cutest little puppy ever, I'm so glad he loves cuddles as much as I do (if not more!) ♥ loitering at Sunnybank, eating ramen and crowding the bubble tea shops ♥ staying in and watching movies ♥ impromptu trips to Ikea and wanting EVERYTHING (it makes you feel like you're married hahahaha) ♥ strolling around the Buddha Festival being spiritual and sending prayers and wishes ♥ free ice cream! AND tickets to lil jon live at the met ♥ gossiping at the beach on a warm sunny day ♥ steak and mushrooms for dinner after said beach trip ♥ cats on the internet that make me giggle ♥ re:plus (see below) ♥  mango dessert with my dear Julie! ♥ late conversations on the beach ♥

I should keep a tab on these things, it makes me really happy to think back on everything that's been going on around me and to remind myself that there is beauty everywhere you look if you choose to seek it :)

Revelation!

Okay, yeah I know I haven't been updating my blog recently. And by updating I mean, actually writing content not just pictures of my egotistical narcissistic me.

In all honesty, nothing much has really been happening lately. It's the same old stuff really, go to uni, study, procrastinate, roll in bed, space out, drink tea, read books.

Only what makes these past few months so different is that so much has been going on in my life. Family, relationships, friendships. Now is the time to piece back my life, you know? Get involved with my family more, friendships on a deeper level and find someone who I feel it is right to be with.

Becoming responsible is not an easy task, but I think 'if you put your mind to it, you'll smash the result in the end'. Thanks Alanbutt, your quote still holds relevant four years later :)

WINTER IS COMING

 Aw yiss, motherfucking animal hats.

Kindness

So I have really bad luck with parking. Really bad luck.

I drove to a train station near home yesterday to get to uni, but despite the massive parking lot they had, there weren't any parking spots. So I drove to the next station down the line, still no parking and even if I had found a parking spot, I would have missed the train anyway. So I ended up driving all the way to uni like I usually do.

Driving around for a good 15 minutes and (finally) found a parking spot. You've no idea how ecstatic I was until I was going to the meter to pay. And then.. the sudden realisation I didn't have any change on me. Oh god. I HAD to get to this class, it was so important.

-a wild kind lady appears-

She doesn't have spare change for a $20 note and gives me $5 to pay for my parking. Oh my goodness.

'Next time you can help out someone else in your situation'

Where does this good karma come from. I hope she had an awesome day + awesome forever. Some people can be so amazing. I am so grateful.

This isn't the first time this has happened either. There was a kind girl who gave me $3 to pay for my parking before and showed me how to use the parking meter the first time I drove to uni. The drive was frightening because I have never driven so far into the city before and I was just distraught. She took a load off me and I wish I could thank you both again but I hope good karma goes your way.

Thank you oh so very much!

You've taught me a good life lesson. Always be kind.
Everyone has their problems and everyone is going through something different. Whether they've had a bad day or not, everyone has their own story. A little kindness goes a long way and I want to better myself by showing a little bit of kindness wherever I can.

#end mushy cheesy post

I officially know how to use contact lenses :D

Friday Night Mayhem (Part 2)

 If you missed the first post full of drunken pictures, its here for your viewing pleasure :)

If you haven't guessed, after the breakup several months back I feel pretty damn fucking liberated and a lot of alcohol was consumed (and sometimes regurgitated). Hence these pictures. I don't even think much happened during those Friday nights. We talk, we laugh, we drink, everything is euphoric. Then the sun comes out and we're all neatly tucked in bed with our feet in pain and headaches pulsing by the next morning.

I've missed this sort of thing, you know? All the freedom you could ever want, in or out of a relationship ♥
