何か学士に最後の日、でもなんだそのきもち。

Eat Pray Love

Eat Pray Love.

Some kind of food for thought, but that doesn't mean i am recommending this to you... it's a bit ehhh, what you call that... boring.

and i fell asleep in the middle part. No, i didnt mean climax. I really mean the MIDDLE part. The fact that its around half way through the movie clearly DID NOT mean that we're now at the climax of the story. Bam. yeah SURPRISE. Is it me or that happen to everyone else (or at least someone else) that the india part was meaningless. taking into the consideration that i can still comprehend (very clearly) whats going on the third part when i woke up?

anyway... guess you must be wondering whats with my first sentence and my following all-so-boring attitude. okay. the thing you have to understand about me and hence this movie is that,
julia roberts did what i had been wanting to do but havent got the gut (and money) to do so (yet). well probly plus wrong timing and minus i do not really wish for the divorce part thank you very much. Leave everything behind and travel to foreign countries... don't you think reading the sentence sounded awesome already?

well.. i guess this is all quite girly and dreamy, and a bit of irrational i gotta admit... leaving a great man for stoopid reason and go travel and discover your true innerself and whatnot. right? but i guess i just gotta buy this and swallow this, aint to be immersed into something that aren't gonna or under very rare circumstance that it will happen, the fun of being in a cinema? let go of your logic your comprehension your conception... just for a wee bit and a while ;))

ok lah its getting late... after all this babbles! just gonna end this post with a quote that makes me think and feels like blogging instantly once its said.

"To lose balance sometimes for love is part of living a balanced life." — Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love
probly gonna blog bout this next time if i m not getting too lazy to think.


thanks for reading. and i mean it. Thanks.

Would you hit on me?


Chillaxing at home after working on studio all day loooooooong.
And I found this funny guy on youtube.


Youtube is like studio best partner, don't you think, archies?

以為自己拎得起，放得低。

原來有時還是高估了自己。。。

Cherish

Cherish what you have.

珍惜所有，知足常乐。


Note: this is not a snap post. I came up with the words ahead of the picture.

When Five Fell

Just never thought how things could be, when perspective changes.

Even mummy starts asking. whatt.

Mummy you're just so cute. ^^

Journal

Start to doubt which direction i am heading to in this blog as I read through. I wasn't being totally open and honest with my thinking and feelings here and neither it's a directory or sharing blog. Not that I was lying or hiding anything, it's just that, sometimes, you know.. You know what I am talking about, bloggers. Don't you.

Privacy and stuff. Perception and stuff.

And you know, people are, well, judgemental. Stop living in denial, I mean, that's really normal. You do, even if you don't mean to sometimes. haha (awkward laugh huh)

Internal debating whether to start to start a physical journal of my own, in PAPERS. Real papers.

~ those really pretty vintage journals in cursive with sepia or bnw photos comes to my mind ~

Paper scissor rocks. PAPER wins.

but was too afraid it is just gonna ends up die out of attention hunger. They seriously need tonnes of words feed and photos supply, and honesty and and and TIME for sure. And you know how long do you (or COULD YOU) spend sittting in fronta your desk writing properly. Urban disease. Bet you'd rather check your facebook.





Me too.

But i really want something that i could read, and smile in the future.

even though i might not be all ' oh. those good old times', but i will at least smile and say ' ah, silly me. ' haha.

Memory, aint thou the best thing.

was it last year or something i somehow managed to find my old diary that RIP when i was Form 2. amazing, right. Spent hours reading it, and i enjoyed every moment of it no matter how silly and crappy those words are. 'Cause i remembered why i wrote them, And I am glad that it forms part of me.

Anyway, journal or no journal, this blog remains. It might just go change some fashion and head towards some new different direction.

Jap quiz tomorrow.
and Airplanes is love.

An animation that made my day

Simple yet moving.

Surpriseee...

New layout for the blog!


Guess the legibility is a bit low, right. thanks, default background!!
Been wanting to learn html and css but it seems that they aren't being too friendly to me. They probably hate girls.

Anyway, still under construction afterall. Hope I would come up with a better layout soon.

Who are you

I wonder who are these random chinese named 'people' ( decided to assume so to make myself happier, they might be bot afterall) commented brainlessly here. Constructive comment often made my day but PLEASE DO NOT if you weren't reading.

Spring

Thought this might be a pretty good picture that i've got recently (with a compact), given that it's not touched up at all. Not at all impressive, but i like it. For my love for spring?

Why is it so gloomy out there?

Today

Which reminds me :

「P」 : So.. You have facebook?
Me : Erm, yeah.
「P」 : So.. I type in 'Moon' to find you?
Me : Erm, yeah. (whatt.)
「P」 : Ohhh... You actually put your nickname as your facebook name. HAHAHA.
Me : (!!) Nooo.. that's my REAL NAME.

*「P」 - a new friend that i made in uni

This was a while ago, but it cames fresh to my mind today.

If you just met me, please do not mind me by saying ' My name is Siew Moon, but you can call me 'Moon' '. I know, that is perhaps too long a sentence to answer ' hey you are ?'

'wasting time'

Found some interesting people who kept whining that they wasted lotsa time and how regretful they are.

You know, it's ok. It's really ok. I like 'wasting time' too, if that's how you call it. But 'wasting time' makes me happy and contended sometimes. No guilt. And it's not like time that are not invested in assignments or jobs should all be categorised as 'wasted'. I might be too young to say this, but i think there are more important things to do, more things that worth your time to be 'wasted' on, than assignments from your ABPL38912743158975 tutor and jobs in a cafe at some alley.

I am the kind of person who is willing to wake up earlier just so that i have more time to 'waste'. Like NOW.

Yeah I like wasting time and I am pround of it. narcisist much huh?

Update

Thought i would be updating the blog more often during the holiday but oh well. thanks to procastination yah, even when it comes to blogging. heh.

kicking the new semester start with no money - TERRIBLE! went overboard shopping in shanghai. but I love love love my new stuff from shanghai! NO REGRET! gotta wait till for summer so i can wear 'em!! and oh i need want a new headband <-- I know that's random and I've absolutely no idea why i wrote that down. reminder?! but i seriously want one. and i can't find a decent one here.

Oh there's a very high chance that i am gonna move next year with a friend!! tryna find a decent apartment with great location, environment, price and ...design (that's more like my concern not ying's i think but still ). Hard. but finger cross, that everything is gonna go well! i want swimming pool and gym.

walking on the street today and I haven't run into the person that I thought I am gonna run into. Haven't. Haven't. Haven't. So one day I will. But preeeeeeeeeeease don't let it be too late.
Or could You at least make this person appear just somewhere. Wherever will do, I promise.

Suppose to be reading a play. oh well.

nights.



before i seriously end the post, i wanna say ' hey so glad that you updated your long abandoned blog! keep it going, mr!'

I ♥ Giraffe

The animal -Giraffe is adorable but by ' Giraffe' here I mean The Giraffe Cafe. Love love love this warm place.

This cafe is like my dream-comes-true cafe. I mean, how do they know how my cafe will be like if I do have one. How How How!!! Even though the food isn't a top-notcher, I'd say I am totally blinded and melted with the lovely ambience. MELTED!

p/s: oh oh oh i totally forgot to tell you where this is. NOW: Lt Lonsdale street, right behind melbourne central !

Broken mug

Broke a mug today morning. sigh.

looking at the broken scattering pieces reminds me of how a heart was and may be is and could always be.

Cleaning that up is always awful, if not painful.

FRINGE and stuff

got my fringe chopped yesterday. I mean, CHOPED.

brand new me with brand new idiotic looking fringe. ugh.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My fringe was eye prickling (its annoying especially during this critical exam period) and i wanted a change (pretty much girl's purest reason for a haircut) . went to a hairdresser and had it choped off.

I think i looked terrible-ish. This whole chopped off fridge just seems so off on me.

There's a saying, 'time would heal the wound'.
I say: ' Time would heal my fringe'.

please, fringe, grow quicker.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As i mentioned above, i am at this crucially critical exam preparation period but i aint doing the right thing. oh focusing have been really hard these days. what's going on. All i wanted to do (and have been doing the whole day) is really ANYTHING other than studying. omg where is the nerdy me?

じゃ、みなさん、がんばってください。

baby step

Can't believe how idiotic I was yesterday.


Chance Chance Chance, I just let it go.

Oh whatever.

As a friend of mine said, I haven't been acting like this since the longest time ever. Like a whining baby.

No matter how hard I wanna deny that, I have to admit it. Yes I haven't been feeling like this for a while. A very loooooooooong while.

Some asked why, and it makes me wonders why. And I realise all I could say is IDK.

This feeling thing... , oh well.

Anyway, baby steps comon baby steps. So, teach me patient.

今わ。。。

Oh oh you know what.


this is really random but i guess that ’high school feeling’ i've been looking for kicks in again.


oh well. じゃね。

I promised this will be the LAST POST of archi crap

Tomorrow is gonna be the last day of the semester.

Can't believe time flew that fast, just THAT fast, you know. A moment ago it was just the beginning of the sem, and seriously are you kidding, i SURVIVED* thru the sem?

* NOTE: I am not too sure if I SURVIVED the sem, 'cause its clear that I haven't get graded for stuff, and final submission and exam are still ahead of me. but oh well, if you know how an architecture student semester is like, you would probably think SURVIVED is the word.


As you might realised what I wrote in the past few post, I am at the stage of 'where am i heading to in my life?' .

Mid life crisis.

I am 21.

Seriously.

Lets hope finger cross, 21 is not my mid life.

Btw, I realised architect sorta have shorter life span that others do. But well, they might already make every second worth it by staying up thru the night. They doubled their time spent with the life span given.

You might not get it. Lemme explain in simple math.

Ok. Let say this architect A and this clerk B both died at year 40 ( how sad ). Architect A actually use more of his time span than clerk B. So how this works is that:

Clerk B used life time = 40 (yr) x 365 (day) x 16 (active hr per day)= 262800 hrs
architect A used life time = 40(yr) x 365 (day) x 24 (active hr per day)= 350400 hrs

You see how the math works.



Ok enough crap. Thats totally irrelevant to what I was about to say when I start typing in this littlw column.


The fact that i just kinda got done with my final presentation makes me a little crazy. I am not used to have that much capacity in my mind.

Have been thinking bout the life direction stuff as I mentioned a hundred thousands word before . You might think its a little early to think about this, I am still a third year.

Well, it might not be an urgent to solve. It is just that, the thinking and FACT that i mighn't have been improving much or if there is any, from the day i stepped into the uni, is a little frustating and upsetting. Uni is making me stupid (I am seeking for agreement and support for the last sentence, please =)). What have I been doing in uni all these years. All nighters and essays and partying .?

Oh well, but you know what, when i was talking to a friend of mine about how impassionate i am about all this architecture crap, I realised i cannot picture myself in the future other than being an architect. So i guess I am still in afterall. =) POSITVE !

Blue sky

Sometimes life is just...

unpredictable.

What you told me explained my confusion over months. And I am filled with joy and positive momentum, that it eases your mind, and (fyi) it eases mine too.


Blue sky ♥

And as I read what I wrote...

And as I read what I wrote...

I thought I should be an architectural photographer.


because those are the people that deceive influence my young and innocent mind back then.

and I gotta say it's NOT that I regretted doing architecture. It is just that a lot had been going on.

live love life.

This Archi talk.

Why did I choose to do architecture in the first place.

why why why.

and i wonder what would I be doing instead if this stupid decision wasnt made.

I didn't choose architecture because it starts with 'A' and thus in the first page of the 'course selection' booklet.

I know I am a bad reader, but Seriously I didn't do that.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Architecture.

It attracted me and never cease to attract me. I loved architecture, and still love architecture.

It is just that, sometimes... I realised I didn't love architecture that much that I am prepare and willing to devote my life to it. That doesn't feel right.

Someone told me that s/he envy those that is willing to and are able to dedicate to architecture, even as young as a student.

I told him/ her that I don't, despite the fact that I envy people quite a lot ( and i do mean 'envy' and not similar negative substitute). I just don't see the meaning of this whole lifelessness and stuff, like how you treat your an hour nap as a precious god gifted break that you deserve after staying up for three thousand hours, or a peek on an episode of desperate housewife as the best entertainment ever after spending a week with yellow trace and no other thing.

And that people just have to have something else that they are passionate about.

even if it's dotA.


This is just plain emo crap.

and so, dear archies, no offence if you love your assignments.

" As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You’ll have your heart broken and you’ll break others’ hearts. You’ll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you’ll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you’ve never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone’s hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don’t be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back. "

Clear mind

Mind clearing - success.

I love this. I Love my clear mind =)

Blue sky, aww...

Although Melbourne is getting cold.

You probably wouldn't understand, but it's okay

I am suppose to be sleeping or studying (not in the mood as usual), but oh well, decided to write some stuff down.

Constantly disturbed recently, i can't concentrate. I am distracted.

Too much to think about, to forget about, and hopefully to forgive.

Let's believe I can.
I know I can.


* i just realised the title is so emo.
it's ok, i am not a 14 yo teenage hiding round a dark corner trying to kill herself. and i believe tomorrow's gonna be a better day. way better.

CAUTION: THIS IS A RANDOM RANT THAT YOU CAN JUST SKIP

Hey guys! Haven't been here for a while after my Penang trip but well, I am back!

Back to my blog, Back in Melbourne, Back to uni.

This feels real, everything feels real. Time, people, places. They feel real to me. And it's dreadful, I can't face all these. I don't understand how these happened. It was like just 3 months ago I lead an easy life, I feel loved and surrounded, I am all happy and I owned a clear brain, no jealousy no confusion no dillema. The more I thought about it, it feels further, it feels surreal, it feels dreamy, like I had entered a time gap or a blackhole or somethingfor the last few months, I dont know, I don't read sci-fi.

Now that I am back, away far far away from my comfort zone. And these monster of confusion, jealousy and dillema that've been in hibernation for a while pops out gradually. What should I say, what should I do, how should I react, where is my self esteem.

Please stop saying I am independent, please stop saying I am totally happy-go-lucky.

This is overwhelming.

Of course I am happy and I appreciate those lovely words. And I know you're honest.

It's just that you saw only my chirpy cheerful side.

I ain't saying that it's just a facade, and when you start digging and scanning into the wall and column you found all sadness and melancolic. No I ain't saying that.

It's just that I do have my sentimental side.

I laugh a lot, I talk a lot, I scream a lot.

But I think, I cry, and I wishes for the best too.

May be I am just too noisy for you to realised that I do think, Like A LOT.

And you might not believe it (when I am always the one that forgot to bring my sketchbook, pencils and when is my next classs whatsoever), I remembers a lot too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know, this is a lil personal.

Whatever. I think I'll just publish this. Who cares it bores you to hell, I warned you. and this is MY blog.

random add-in: I miss you and I love you, my fam!

and Final Words: I am happy right this moment, after all this useless rants like a loser.

PENANG

Lousy title =.=" but i can't think of a better one.

But yea, just been back from a short trip to Penang. Great shopping trip with my mummmy!

But it was short ugh. VERY SPECIAL THANKS to the CHANGE OF SCHEDULE of the cheapskate red coloured themed airline ( you do know what i m talking about and i don't wanna get sued)!

Anyway, photo sharing slash show off time.!!




Meet my beloved ais kacang, long-time-no-see cendol, ever-awesome si-kuei-teng and lo-bak!!

and SHOPPING SPREEE!! Bought lovely fake-print tee, and ... oh,

I have to apologize here, my fellow male reader. The following part of text is gonna bore the hell out of you. So, skipping is welcome, just don't hate me.





Sooo fake print tees, bubble skirt, canvas bag and a pair of nice t bar heels. And look, I started to work out what i think is matching already haha. Oh i am still so in love with my lovely vest afterall!

And ohhhhh, did I tell you I bumped into Lin You Jia? FYI if you are not into mandarin music, he is a young chinese singer from Taiwan, who has 'Yoga' as his English name and I wonder if he loves yoga that much. I do, though.

Strictly speaking, it's not exactly like I BUMPED INTO HIM, but I sorta saw his promo tour or something at Gurney Plaza. It was a HOT day that I almost fainted and I am so surprised to see him there. UNDER THE SUN. Well, it's not like I like him so much or what, it's just that I found that torturing to stand under that burning sun for more than 10 minutes. It's hard, even to breath.



OMG he is soo skinny. It's NOT LIKE I M JEALOUS. NO. NO.

Anyway (I love this word, such a GOOD(?!?!) starting), come think about it, I always bump into some celebrity unexpectedly. Did I tell you i bumped into Wu Zhun before?

It was around 3 years back then when I still live most of my time of a year in KK, in college doing A-level. Then there was one HOT day (again, but that's the truth) me and my family went to the temple for my late grandma. and there was where i bumped into WuZhun. yes, a temple! And you know what, his precious someone (i can't recall. was that his grandma too?) was worshipped at the samewing (out of all those wingsss they have) and same floor as my grandma's. Unbelievable.

(pic prove haha.)

But honestly it's not like I am a fan of WuZhun too. He just has cute face, that's ALL.
Ugh i just can't bump into the celebrity i like. Robert Pattinson? David Archuleta? Okay i know that's almost impossible. I am just sayin'.
But Gary Chaw? He origins from Sabah and I LOVE his songs. How come I never bumped into him?!!? TOMORROW.

Digging thru the old stuff and LOOK!how cute is the registration tag!

Howdy guys.

Was tidying and updating my photo album.

but you know, tidying album wasn't any fun if you doesn't flick through and look through them, er like this is the main purpose of keeping albums, no? although I am quite sure that makes you took 5000 times longer time to straighten out your album haha.

It worth it I guess, looking at what I found.


Look at the license plate, isn't that hilarious?

0RLALA!!

But i was thinking how possible it is to have a registration tag start with '0'(zero), and no other number else. Tell me, how is this possible.

But hey don't you ever doubt the originality of the photo!!! Yours truly took it somewhere in ChinaTown (Little Bourke st.), Melbourne, around half a year ago.




I thought this is CUTER. Mr, I LOVE your registration tag, and I would pay ________________ (please fill in the blank as you wish, mr owner) for it. take me seriosuly wtf.

Btw, yours truly took this as well. Taken at almost the same time as the ORLALA one and they were short distance away. How lovely. (right?)

Thanks

Been away for a while, busy with my trip to Brunei and bringing friends around in Kota Kinabalu. Gonna update that later.

This is like a typical reader-less blog's blog entries, too common too boring ugh, but I have not much of idea what and how to sort out and i guess i am too lazy to. Just feel like writing a let-it-be entry hm.

What am I saying here and what am I gonna say here.

Um,

To begin with, I received a video wishing me happy 21st birthday from my lovely Melbourne friends. A million thanks for their effort. It makes me laugh so badly till my stomach ache everytime I saw it. I don't know how many more videos will I get in my life, but the chances are rare, so thanks, I am so gonna keep this forever. Guys, you make my day.

A picture to end the post. Some spring cleanning that I've been doing and here are my plush sayangsssss under the sun.

My to-do list 2: Talk slower

I have been and always been talking fast, too fast.

You might be thinking 'oh so you knew it!! but why are you still talking soooo fast?'

I have been wanting to answer this question, digging holes to my heart and brain, but I am sorry, I am seriously clueless.

I guessed I am born to be. That's the only reason that makes sense.

Other possible rationalities?
(a) I am good with language (no, 'cause talking quickly doesn't makes any effective relationship with language level, for instance i am still bad in English)
(b) I have lungs with small capacity, so I have to breathe more often (so I have to finish the sentence before my next in/exhale)
(c) I am always nervous ( okay i have to admit that i kinda get nervous easily and i do talk quicker and mumbles when i am nervous, but hell, it's not like it makes sense that i am nervous 24-7!)

See, I couldn't figure what is the reason behind except this lousy excuse that I am born to be so.

Anyway, it's not like I never try to speak slower. There were several times at different point of my life that i did make efforts to talk slower and clearer. But those never works. Speaking slower makes me sounds emotionless and monotonous, it just sounds weird. And I get back to the usual 129867663298175666498km/SEC talking speed me almost immediately. Ugh.

No it's a new decade i think it's time (hahas).

So this is kinda like my new year resolution, I wanna speak slower, clearer. Gimme courage and persistance.

My to-do list 1: frequent swimming

It has been a while since the last update, I was just a bit restless. I mean my mind, 'cause exercising (CONSTANTLY) is still in my 'TO-DO LIST'.

Trying to keep myself swimming 2-3 times per week, and it was tolerable enjoyable so far ( 2 weeks almost). But seriously it was my favourite exercise slash past time (besides shopping and food meeting) at the moment, I enjoy every moment of peaceful morning under the blue chlorine water, it puts my mind at ease. With every movement it gives you a dash, and i love the simple fact that the effort you give in, is directly proportional to the distance you made (so undienably science background ugh, but i no longer remember what's the formula to calculate momentum from velocity). Simple and fair.

But I am so afraid of getting too tan. (asian huh? hah.) Any recommendation of good sunscreen or something, girl friends? Indoor swimming pool is not available in here fyi, the sea, ships, trees and blue sky here are too awesome to be out of eye sight blocked by walls decorated with schools of merry-looking dolphins leaping painting( i love dolphins but their appearance in paintings are exploited) when you thrust.

That's it atm and next update would be soon. I am trying to blog more while I am free, for writing is better than er, facebooking, at least slightly, no?

p/s this is not a new year resolution.
