my stupid complaints

*sigh* today has been a bit of a dodgy day, and here's why:

1. after our lectures today the weather was really warm, well warm for autumn anyway, the sun was out and all, then the trams at swanston st weren't working so we walked all the way from there to elizabeth st to get the tram. ok, maybe it wasn't that far but it made me feel even hotter by the time i got to the tram stop. the thing is, i was wearing a jumper (stupid me) and i couldn't really take that off...so that really bugged me...

2. i went to get my formal pants shortened at this clothes shop place and the person wasn't there so i have to wait till tomorrow to get it, which by then the infection control prac would be over and i need to wear "professional attire" for that. yes, very dodgy because pretty much all of my clothes don't fall under that category. so i went rummaging through my wardrobe for something suitable to wear, which i have finally found so i'm kinda glad about that. however, i felt kinda outta place and weird when i was trying on that stuff so i'm not quite sure how on earth i'm gonna survive wearing that for the whole entire day tomorrow...

3. i decided to get a start on my dent assignment, which i had already tried but wasn't successful since the dentist i interviewed didn't really have any thoughts about dentistry :S ...anyways, so i decided to call wend's dentist to see if i could make an appointment to interview her....but then i got rejected by the receptionist cos she said the dentist was too busy and etc hence, now i'm starting to stress out about finding a dentist to interview... *sniff*

4. not sure exactly why, but i have a headache now... so i don't feel that great either :'(

anyhows, after letting out all my complaints for the day i feel really stupid for feeling grumpy and down cos they are such miniscule things to feel bad about...hehe so now i'm gonna enjoy what's left of the day :] !!!!

p.s. here's a pic from my phone of a double rainbow i saw on last thursday after it rained :)

uni: week one

the first week of uni has just gone by. to tell the truth i kinda do miss high school, but so far uni has been better than i had expected. hehe and i'm starting to actually know where buildings and stuff are located so i'm not getting lost as much =) the bad thing about uni is the big breaks that we get, and esp. with dent we can't actually choose our timetable or anything so that kinda sucks. i really enjoyed our prac class even though i got pretty tired after the three hours. another bad thing is the 8 o'clock days we get, lol so now i'm starting to get sleep deprived even though i go to sleep really early already.

...today i came back home from camp (which wasn't that great cos there was so much drinking and stuff there and the place was pretty dodgy - so not my type of camp)the first thing mum said to me when she saw me was like ' wow, what happened to your face?!' =.=" turns out i got around twenty mossie bites and nine of them were on my face! =( !!!!in the morning when i was brushing my teeth i only saw a couple and i already got pretty depressed then, so yeah, when i got home i felt waaay worser !(not that there is such a word but...) lol i must've looked pretty odd on the train and stuff with all those red spots on my face!

so altogether i've had a nice five days of uni complimented by a totally dodge weekend. i think that's enough complaining from me for the time being...

freerice.com


i visited the freerice website yesterday, initially with some doubt...i mean does anything come free in this world? but then i checked out the site and even went on the bbc news website to verify that freerice was not some con.

the idea of freerice is actually very simple, but also very clever too. it's a vocab game where for every word you get correct 20 grains of rice is donated by the ads that are on that page. you can help save people and improve your vocab at the same time.

just out of curiosity i decided to work out how much 20 grains of rice actually is. our kitchen scales aren't too great so i ended up having to count out 100 grains of rice to get a proper weight. 100 grains = approx 5 grams, so playing the game to get 1000 grains of rice = donating 50 grams of rice.

why not check out the website today? --> www.freerice.com

[two minute picture + photoshopping]



colour is an interesting thing. it can create emotion effortlessly, without a single word. what an odd thing colour is...no shape, no form, no texture...yet it's still there...colour creates shape, reveals form, enhances texture...

is personality like colour? something that is physically intangible yet always there, and within itself personality holds some sort of life (in a figurative way)...
