Listen to this song.

Been reading "On The Jellicoe Road" by Melina Marchetta and at first, I was a little meh about it cos the setting was something I can't really relate to and it feels a little bit like a fantasy novel - something I don't buy.

As the book goes on, I fell in love with it. Like I'm at page 666 of 776 now and I can't wait to end it cos I WANT TO KNOW WHERE IS HER MOTHER WHY IS HANNAH LIKE THIS AND OH MY GOD IS HANNAH AND JUDE LIKE, UNREQUITED LOVERS?!?!?

I'm reading the ebook of course lol. No way is an actual YA novel 776 pages long and still got a Pulitzer Award. Yes, THIS BOOK GOT A PULITZER AWARD. And guys, that's big in the YA novel world.

One of my favourite quotes from the book is when Jonah (Oh, my God Jonah.) was telling Taylor:

"Never," he tells me in a tone full of ice, "under-estimate who or what I care for."

Guys, if you read the book, you will totally get what I mean.
I'm also here to say that the great novelists aren't just Americans. Cos Australians can totally rock your world with their books too. Just like Jaclyn Moriarty's "Finding Cassie Crazy" and "The Murder Of Bindy McKenzie" or Marcus Kuzak's "The Book Thief".

They're just.. so awesome.

Maybe I'm too negative.

Been seeing Wennie's Mom at Leisure Mall recently. She either doesn't remember how I look like/has a natural scary expression/doesn't like me. I don't know. I hope she's OK now. If you're reading this, Wennie. I gave you a nickname cos putting your real name is too direct.

Maybe I need to brighten up.
Maybe I need to change my outlook in life.
Maybe I just need to relax. I don't know.

The ESFJ is the most sociable of all types. Outstanding hosts or hostesses, they excel in service occupations involving personal contact. 13% of the total population.

Recently just went to Verinia's blog and she posted about her Dream Apartment inspired by Xiaxue's post on her renovation.
It's one of my favourite subjects :P shut it, I like talking about organization and colour choosing and all that crap that yes, I am aware that only housewives like to talk about and not "high flying career girls" that I aspire to be (sometimes I doubt myself. I have such an auntie side.)

My dream apartment will have no such nautical theme like the one Xiaxue prefers eventhough I am the nautical look fan...but only in the talk of clothes..on men :P very attractive men.
ANYWAY, my dream apartment must be spacious. It just has to. Me and confined spaces? Yeah we don't work so good. I will need a lot of bookcases to store all my books/craft stuff/miscellaneous cos I'm somewhat of a hoarder.

I'll also want a lot of jars to store all my small trinkets in. Words cannot describe how much I love jars. Mason jars. They're so clear and shiny and vintage and the jar caps are just so ohmygod I don't know.

COMMERCIAL BREAK. I just saw this gif on Google and I had to share it - even if it is mid-post.
hoooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh yeaaaaahhhhhhh maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnn.

Okay I lost motivation to continue this post. Generally, I want my apartment to look like an IKEA Catalogue.

So here's the thing, 70% of my friends generally get better grades than me. Therefore in this society, they're smarter. Ergo, I am dumb-er. I know I'm not dumb, I'm just dumb-er than them. At least to the public eye.

And you know what some people do when they think they're smarter than you? They get cocky.
Kind of.

It all boils down this : people get so drowned in their sea of confusion that they think their A+ > your C-. And in the real life, it is. Yes, an A+ is better than a C-. But let's not allow that A+ to cloud your visual in life.

Because I still hold that opinion that half of the people in that class are just 10 times more hard-working than us.

You're not smarter. You just work harder.

If you live in the Cheras area, you'll know what I'm talking about when I say the Magic Card Salesmen of Leisure Mall, Taman Segar.

These guys are the sharks of the Magic Card trade. I was at Leisure Mall yesterday to pick up an Add Maths workbook when one of them tried this scheme which was SO WELL HIDDEN.

Disclaimer: names are altered to save me from punishment. My school is that sneaky.
Salesguy: Hello, do you know me?
Me: *wtf. Do I?!* Uh, no.
Salesguy: You sure? *squints* I feel like I've seen you before.
Me: *I'm pretty sure I don't forget a guy's face.* Yeah, no.
Salesguy: You from what school?
Me: Oyster.
Salesguy: *confused* where's that?
AND WHEN YOU READ THAT YOU WOULD'VE THOUGHT HEY, MAYBE HE DOES KNOW HER. 
That, my friends is not the case (I feel thankful for that.). Besides, any guy who knows me anyway will know better to not ask me to buy something from him.
Me: Uh, neh Big Bucket Street.
Salesguy: *changing topic* oh okay, huh.
Me: *nods* yeap.
Salesguy: *whips out weird card thingy* DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS?!?!

-.-

I want nothing of your overpriced products! NO ONE WANTS YOUR PRODUCTS EXCEPT THE VERY NAIVE.

These guys actually sold my Mom these bunch of cards for RM15 -.- I saw the same thing in paper for free at Petrosains.

this song is like. Oh my god LOL. Sex music or runway music. For Victoria's Secret.

I've just downloaded the pdf for The Sea of Tranquillity yesterday and the starting is so horrible, I stopped reading it - which made me a little annoyed cos it was so hard to find the stupid file -.- It reminded me of those horrible Wattpad stories I've had the un-fortune to read.

Thus, sparked this blog post. The following is the list of what I particularly do not like about Wattpad writers. Before you go all defensive about it, I understand that majority of these writers are teens. Thus, having little experience to speak of....

1. One of my biggest pet peeve is when they spell things wrongly. Too much of these spelling errors make me remove this form of treachery from my library in disgust. A lot of these teens seem to fail their English class (even if most of them are from America-where their mother language is English which baffles me.) and rely heavily on spell-check on Word.

My parents can be such dicks sometimes lol.

Like, they complain I don't eat enough, then when I eat they say I grew fat -.-

They complain my skin full of pimples, then when I put on mask they say I look like a ghost.

1. This song is beautiful. And you should listen to it if you're feeling depressed/moody/mystical/hispter. It's such a beautiful song. Not recommended to start your day with this as your road to school will be filled with meaningful questions. "Where will my life lead me to?", "Am I doing the right thing?" etc.

2. I finally figured out how to sync my songs, so yippee! Hip-hip hurrah!

3. Reading "Second Chance Summer" made me think about what will happen if something terrible happens to my Mom or Dad (cos even if his character flaws are incredibly annoying, he's still my Dad in the end right. Lol Yeah I keep telling myself that.) so to you guys out there, your parents are annoying to you, yeah but usually for the mistakes that you've brought onto yourself indirectly. Maybe you thought about it on a Pondering Day and refuse to admit it, but you know what you've done. And they're there for you, to finance you and to catch you when you fall - quite literally.

I AM FINALLY BACK ON THE LAPTOP. Geez has it been hectic. Let's see.

1.You guys must read Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson. Here's the link for the pdf version so you can read it on your computer/phone/iPod or whatever. At first, the cover was just meh like "oh another summer beach read" but NO. Guys, it's a beach read, but you better prepare yourself to be stared at cos THIS BOOK WILL MAKE YOU CRY. Ten times more if you're PMS-ing. My feels gets amplified at night and at the last chapter when something devastating happened right after something beautiful happened..

What kind of sick person will give us a 10 question paper to finish in 1 hour?! That's an average of 6 minutes per question. Something near impossible for a person like me WHO HAS THE CAPABILITY OF A LIMBLESS WALRUS IN ADD MATHS.

Ugh I just realised I pretty much screwed up the ones I did do correctly -.- I hope I pass.
