The Return of the ____(insert adjective here)

21 October 2012

SO I HAVE BEEN NINE MONTHS GONE. 

And no, I'm not secretly pregnant and waiting for the baby (THE baby? What baby?) to pop out anytime now. 

I have just been... gone! Too lazy and uninspired to blog about anything, not even about my life. 

I'm actually contemplating starting up a new blog and to blog consistently from now on, but well, you know me! I'm the queen of making excuses. Especially when it comes to blogging. Or anything else, for that matter.

So, why start up a new blog, you say? That's because... err, I am a changed woman now!

(Fine, I meant girl. I am a changed girl now.)

I have grown up! Just a little bit. I think. And this blog is so... old. I don't even want to browse through my archives to see what sort of immature, teenage fantasies and woes I had like, 5 years ago, haha. And of course, I don't want to see what I looked like 5 years ago, with the abominably short hair and plump cheeks. The horror! Hahaha. 

So many things have happened these nine months I was gone. College was college. Fun, stressful, occasionally boring (I am so full of shit, occasionally boring? Understatement of the year, haha), the usual drill! Life in this terrible apartment hasn't improved a bit. Well, okay, maybe a little, since I lugged a five-drawer plastic cupboard all the way from Penang to KL and now have more space to keep my ridiculous amounts of rubbish in. And I actually organized my things properly, like I have a makeup/accessories drawer, a food drawer, a toiletries/first aid drawer. I am so proud of myself. I mean, in the past, whenever I try to organize my things... well. Let's just say it never lasts for more than one week. But this time... *puffs out chest* I am a grown woman. Girl. Hahaha. 

There's a drawback about my bringing the draw-ers-back (get it? Don't get it? HAHA), though. I now have no space to maneuver myself around. It's tragic, really. I barely have any leg space under the too-narrow table and I can't push my chair backwards for fear of hitting the drawer and sending everything on top of it flying. Meh. 

Anyway! 

Suppose I give you a short update of my life and what I'd LIKE to talk about if I decide to continue updating my blog. No promises though! 

1. Firstly, I no longer have my Xperia Ray and no longer have my pink Canon IXUS.
This is significant because if ever I have anything to update about in the future, it'll be difficult for me to take any photos. At all. My two babies ended their lives somewhere fabulous and completely beautiful, so I suppose I should take comfort in that fact. Hahaha. Also, thankfully, the memory cards remained intact so I still have all my photos. No memories lost! :)

2. Said 'fabulous and completely beautiful' place is Perhentian Island.
Went there during the August Raya holidays with my awesome boyfie (YOU ARE MENTIONED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY BLOG ARE YOU HAPPY NOW! ), and it was absolutely breathtaking. I took a whole mountain of photos, and hopefully I'll feel motivated enough to upload them. I haven't even uploaded them on Facebook and it's already been two months since I went there. Oops. 

3. I've been having extremely busy semesters.
No need for elaboration. It was horrible. Haha. And I got my first A- during my second semester and I still secretly want to stab someone with a knife. Yes I am very kiasu like that. That's pure, genuine Asian/Chinese blood for you! 

4. Halloween is coming up and I have no idea what to wear.
I can't seem to come up with a creative idea that doesn't require either money or time. I went as a dark angel last year, and I wanted to go as a Japanese geisha this time but I can't seem to find any kimono-like tops/dresses anywhere. So now I'll probably be doing something simple like an elf, or an angel (meh), or something like that. Elves are cool, I'll be Arwen! Or the female version of Legolas. Except I'll have to get a blonde wig, a bow, and arrows.. I like the idea of going as Katniss from the Hunger Games, but... haha, we'll see. 

Have I mentioned that the Halloween party is in 4 days? *eyes bulge*

5. Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials series is awesome. 
I didn't like the movie The Golden Compass, therefore I have never felt inclined to read the book(s). But thanks to the RM200 book vouchers, I got myself the Northern Lights (I had absolutely no idea that it was the Golden Compass, by the way), and once I started reading... I got hooked. Haven't exactly read any good books for a very long time!

Okay, I need to go work on something for the Halloween party already. Yay. Not.

I'll be back! Now that I've started babbling about my life, I don't want to stop. So I suppose I'll be back. Hahaha. I'll see if I can find any interesting photos I've taken these nine months I was MIA, and upload them! :) 

Toodles. X
