Haven't been updating as much but that's because I've been spending too much time trying to write essays and it's just not working well for me at the moment. Normally, writing a 450w mandarin speech would take me less than an hour to complete but it took me 3-4 hours on Sunday to produce this 450w of bullcrap and I know I'm off topic. I also sat down (lol wait I'm always on my arse) and tried to write a paper 1 and that obviously didn't go well. I had full attention and will to finish this paper but it was so hard to organise the ideas, execute it and LIKING what I've written.
My works in translation draft was holeyshietmolly terrible that the feedback Mr Mcgrath gave were pretty much all saying "your essay is dodgy". I read my essay again this year and daaaamnnn the essay is a mess. Yeah so I actually put in heaps of effort (one of the few times) and thought hard about how I could improve the way I analyse things etc. Though I think I can improve on some criterons if I read more books and studied analytical essays, I would be able to write less like a 'retard'. For one of the few times, I had plenty amount of sleep that Sunday night and had time to make myself some bacon and eggs the next morning :D
I remember doing the practice IOP the night before and recording it at 6am in the morning with my sore throat (drank too much coffee) and still got a pretty good mark. The caffeine was pretty much writing the essay for me. Kind of sad but it worked. Don't try this if you haven't. You'll sound like a crazy, enthusiastic, hyperactive maniac in the recording. Mr Mcgrath wrote "great presentation", yep, nailed it (the presentation part).
Enough about English LOL
Let's start off with my weekend.
SUMMARY OF MY WEEKEND: IT WAS THE BEST WEEKEND OF YEAR 12 (excluding holidays)
I only had mando essay and the rest of the weekend was just reading and studying :DDDDDDD
The amount of Ds there are represents my happiness level.
What are you thinking? you dirty minded person.
It was so wonderful.
I even went and wiped off the dust on my piano and played for 2 hours or so. Considering that I wiped off a layer of dust.... you could tell that I haven't been on the keys for months. I tried playing my grade 5 and grade 6 pieces and omg I can't remember how to play it. I can still play the 7 without mistakes but quite disappointed that I can't even play grade 5 and 6 smoothly and precisely, I tried the grade 8 songs my teacher gave me before I stopped and ASLDKJASLKFJSALGKSA AND I CAN'T SIGHTREAD PROPERLY QQ then of course I moved onto playing dem anime, drama ost, kpop songs HAHAHAHHAH So bored.
Our neighbour told my dad that the music I play have changed.
Well of course, from classical to Yiruma for example is a big jump.I think they like classical pieces more but I can't seem to find a classical piece that I want to learn out of interest. Soz deal with my haru haru ;D
#neighboursproblems
See, I've never got that when I was living with my grandparents.
Like wallabies will casually jump up to us and tell us that they like classical music...
I PLAY WHATEVER I WANT, I SMASH DEM KEYS THE WAY I WANT AT WHATEVER TIME OF THE DAY
now I check the time, the day of the week and alter my fortissimo to forte
Life
Oh and also, I can finally wear my bear feet (finally cold) :DD
bare feet
get it?
omg
Doing the laundry with my BEAR FEET ;D
It was so fun wearing it around the house but I kept stepping on my other foot.
While I was watching this show on youtube, I had my tablet (no not lenovo one) in my left hand and a frozen grape in my right hand. I nearly chewed my tablet ermagurd herpderp look at how the shape and colour (when it's doesn't have ice on the skin) are so bloody similar. Okay this is a cool story. I just realised how boring this thing is but I still took and picture and blogged about it.
I also rewatched we got married nichkhun and victoria from years ago
BUT OMG THE FEELS
even though they don't actually love each other
but AASLKJDGKLS it was so cute I wish it was real
Julie and Victoria had to stay at school from 4:30 to 9 today for musical and so I ate my froyo alone while waiting for my bus to come. $5.30! Loving the discount we get when we wear our uniform. Better make use of this before I graduate :D It was actually my second meal of the day because I had speaking comp meeting and physics prac at lunch so I was hungry af.
Not to mention I also lost my go card, though it's only my second time. I only topped up last week and had $53 in it so I was soo devo but it's all sorted out.
Lol why am I blogging about these things it's so useless but I guess I can look back on these posts and track the date I've lost my third go card? It should be fun reading back on these posts, WHEN I'M IN MY FIFTIES.
see
it for yourselves FB page Edited:the page is deleted now so that's why redirects to your fb homepage I can't even. I need to see these kids irl I've only met the
normal ones while I was in Taiwan. Most of the photos are kids in primary
school and junior high school. ARE YOU JOKING WITH ME? Contacts, make up, dyed
hair etc what are their parents doing. Surely you can say Taiwan has heaps of
hot chicks/guys but honestly...I look at them for a good 20minutes and forget
their faces 2minutes later. I cannot find this 'pretty' feature or presentation
that'll leave me thinking about their hotness through the rest of the day. It's
almost like they're all aiming to be the same thing, to look like the same
thingbut
I have to admit that the girl with brown hair in the cover photo is cute.
The rest I don't even know what to say. I feel like the society is being a bit
too harsh of them (including me lol). This facebook page was on the
Taiwanese news and they kind of criticised on the fact that these kids are
trying to look more mature and trying to make friends, gain fame through the
internet instead of studying. You know what? I think the society is criticising
itself. Yeah asif these kids would do this if the society/media didn't create
the phrase - 正妹 (pretty chick). BACK WHEN I WAS A BLOB AIGHT lol still am.
We just studied hard together and cared no shit about how we looked. I was a
loud and extroverted kid with a pancake face (hard to imagine aye) and I tried
to make my classmates happy by making a fool of myself and cracking jokes in
the middle of the class. I had friends that liked me for what I do, they didn’t
have to like me for who I am. I am a student, I am female, I am able to speak mandarin,
I am mean, I am weird, I am critical, I have trouble speaking my mind, I
don’t trust easily etc but they only see what I do, the me that was
extroverted, happy and cheerful. Who I am might not even come close to that. No
one would know that I am able to speak mandarin if I don't actually physically
SPEAK mandarin or tell them that I do. Though what I do is effected by who I
am, but people do things that don’t necessarily represent who they are, or what
kind of person they are because of certain reasons. I still remember that I use to make the most retarded
drowning action while we were playing tag. Honestly, NO ONE CARED about the
reputation or the looks but now, these kids are trying so hard and changing
themselves to be a part of the 正妹
"club" and they end up looking similar to each other. TL;DR
I feel bad for these kids having to feel like they need to look pretty at such
a young age. Yeah f_k you society, gonna talk shit about them when you're the
root of the problem. IMO,
bring back the compulsory school hairstyle, make it all bob hair
DONEDONEDONE. HAHAHAHHAH FEEL MY PAIN -morgana Yep I went to a private school for a few months and all the chicks
had to have short hair, so remember that photo with me holding a weird stick
thing? I was attending that school at that time. Legit everyone looked the
same, most of us look fugly as. BUT WE'RE FUGLY TOGETHER, YOU FEEL ME? The most innocent stage of my life – me attending this private
school in Taiwan. what
is pretty?what is popularity? what is friends? Actually, no
one had friends because we're all classmates, we study, we eat, we nap, we
brush our teeth together that is all. We go home and we spend time with our
family. We didn't use the word 'friend' very often, you could say that we
acknowledge each other’s existence and know that they’re just another one of us.
It was all education based, school was my life. Now ‘school’ is just a part of
life to me. I'm not sure if I prefer that kind of education in private schools
in Taiwan or the education in Australia but I certainly know that my parents
are more fond of ‘school’ just being a part of life, that’s why I’m here bruda. Well
that went off in a different direction..
I could do better (with my EE final draft), but I chose sleep over this so I am prepared for the consequences that have yet to come. It feels pretty nice anyway you could say I'm a bit rebellious ;D
Also, things have been clashing with each other but lucky a few have resolved and saved my lil' arse. I apologise for my absences.
Highlight of the day: Kieren rapping Blanche's line in English
We're currently reading A streetcar named desire together and while she was asking for volunteers (to read certain characters), most of us tried to avoid eye contact but some poor kids couldn't help to look up LOL
So Kieren was voted in to 'play' Blanche (girl btw) and we read up to this line ...
Blanche [singing in the bathroom]: 'From the land of sky blue water, They bought a captive maid!'
It actually sounded decent
Tomorrow' mission: To find this japanese person who is most likely working at Daiso in myer center
If I do find this person, I will then need to introduce myself as [insert my mother's name]'s daughter and expect them to be surprised. Damn I thought she'd design the Brisbane Daiso because she designed the sydney one but rokay. I'll just stroke the racks because she took care of the import, manufacturing part of it. HAHAAHAhahhaha...hahahaha ...</3
Daiso opened today so go check it out whenever but not never :D
I was planning to work my work in translation on friday night but I slept from 6pm all the way to saturday 8am. It was so nice but now I'm feeling the stress (??) and regretting it. I tried to be more productive on Saturday but because it's 'SATURDAY' and
Nah I'm just joking I finished reading "A streetcar named desire" :D
I liked this but not to the point where I'd like to write an IB essay for it.
As for Cosi, I really don't think I'll be able to finish that today on top of my WIT, reflective statement, summary notes on the three books, finalising scaffold, memorising mando oral and read over my physics prac that I'll have to do alone on Monday (lol this one will probs only take 5 mins to read through) </3
I've always tried to avoid eating icecream because I know it's a guilty pleasure. Once you take one spoon, IT'S SO HARD TO STOP. So yeah that's right, the 30cent icecream doesn't attract me at all soz bb. Even if I had 30cents left on me, I wouldn't go buy one. However, this green tea ice cream showed up in our freezer and I was like "what is this wizardry it knows where I live". I still don't know how or who gave us these evil angels but I have to admit that it tastes soooooooo gooooooooooooooooooooooooood.
We went back to grandparent's house for dinner and the first thing I see when I got there was this white feathered chicken strolling in our backyard.
Maggie: when did we buy a living chicken?
Grandpa: ahahahah it’s the neighbour’s chicken, it comes to
our side every day
Maggie: very fearless -sharpens
knife-
this is where I sit you all down and tell you guys a memory of mine
When I was living in Mcgregor (10+ years ago), and attending some kindy/grade 1 here... I would be my grandma's shadow and follow her everywhere. One day, grandpa and grandma bought a living chicken home in a box. Out of curiosity, I asked if we're raising" the chicken. Grandma told me that she's going to kill it and it will be our dinner. ...ermagurd now it sounds so gross... Then she bought the chicken into the room where we normally clean the fish (dem loots). I could hear the chicken trying to fly around the room but I couldn't see anything because the door was closed.
Bingo we did have chicken that night.
grandma be slaying chickens
you go grandma
This is my keyboard as of 19th of April 2013.
Thanks Anthony and Navina.
Mr Gooch was quite concerned with the way I brainstorm design ideas. I spent the whole lesson taking off the keys and shaking my laptop LOLOLOLOLOLOL I told him that I need to do repetitive things for an idea to come. Quick thinking 101.
My cousin has officially challenged me on minecraft. He said he'll build something cooler than my house. Of course creative mode mate. Ain't nobody got time for survival. Plays survival, sets to peaceful, fuq dat I'm here to create. While we were trying to figure out what to do on the server. We found this crack on the ground and dug in. I was digging in one spot straight down to the bottom and Jason stood legit on me and kept digging lower and killed me thanks. trolls. It was so funny though.
Agreed with the thing about 'communicating through implications'.
Though I'm not a person who loves and enjoys socialising 24/7, but when I come across people who communicate through implications.. it makes me want to put a gun to their head and ask "what do you want".
LOL that's the dramatic scene in my mind don't worry I don't own a bubble gun
Is it really that hard to just cut into what you want and be straight forward? Yes I agree that asking for some certain things maybe awkward and weird and you feel like you should lead up to it..but in reality, what it sounds like to ME is somewhat long the lines of.. "I'm insecure and I need time omg I can't just say it out loud I'm so nervous can I disappear before I say something stupid and embarrassing" laa dee dah. What the heck why do I need to watch you be nervous it makes me nervous too, just be nervous in your head pls?
It's totally fine if you're leading up to something you want to ask about logically and it wouldn't be SOO obvious that the whole conversation only ever existed because they want something from you. Instead of trying to HINT people to offer you want you wanted from them...
JUST BE UPFRONT AND BE LIEK NIQQAH I WANT SOME SWAG PLS.
I remember back in grade 2 at Calvary, my friends would literally stare at my 'asian lollies' (lol that's what they called it), and tell me that it looks really nice. LIKE SERIOUSLY, just tell me you want it. Don't just look at my food and tell me it's nice. Of course it's nice! They'd keep looking at the lollies..smile and give compliments to the visual representation of the lollies. Yes my friends at Redeemer have done that too. I'll get annoyed and give them the food while ranting about how they should be more straightforward or else I won't give them my food next time LOLOLOLOL Thankfully they've gotten use to being straightforward, it was a hard journey... those days where I'll sit them down and look at them in the eyes and tell them... 'saaaayyy what you want'.
Whenever people try to communicate through implications (and are too obvious while committing the crime), I just nod, pretend I don't know what they want and chuckle on the inside because I know they're trying hard to ask for a favour and they just can't bring themselves to ask what they want. Then I'll just say what they want and make sure that they know that I know what they want (If I'm feeling happy). This is what I like about kids, they just say what they want.
youngest cousin: I want a ferrari
maggie: oh cool I can't afford it
meanwhile in the society
person A (who wants me to buy a ferrari, note: this is an example only): I've been to the vehicle maintenance over five times for the past few months. I think my car is too old. It's nearly over the warranty too. How can I get to work without a car though? Should I sell it? But then I think cars are a better type of transportation than public buses. Maybe I should consider buying a second hand? Or maybe I should just buy a brand new car? What do you think? Which price range do you think is reasonable? I like the idea of customed cars. Have you heard of any brands that are famous in making them? I think I know one that starts with an "F".
2 types of responses this person will get..
1. mugigie being mean: plus one for second hand yo (though I know you want a ferrari)
2. magigie being nice: so you want a ferrari? Sorry I can't afford one.
You see. Mugigie legit will not give a fuck and just 'push away' your question. Come on, if you're more straight up you'll have 50% more chance of me saying OH YEAH YES OK I'LL HELP YOU I GOT YO BACK. Then, if I'm nice, I'll say what you want for you, and just kindly reject you because you're pissing me off. Joking, I'll still consider helping you but you're at a disadvantage there my friend.
ohyes blogging today because I'm unable to focus looking at something without straining my eyes. Yeah so I'm looking away from the screen every 5 seconds or so. It all started to get worse after shower, like eyes were itchy as fk and there were heaps of secretions that it was super irritating and I couldn't see properly. K awesome so I used the chlorsig that my gp prescribed me and just went to sleep. It was so frustrating because every little small movement of the eyeball will cause irritation and you know there's secretion stuck in there. Woke up after 12 and went back to sleep again. Woke up this morning feeling like I could itch my eyes for a whole century. Then we tried to make an appointment with the specialist (got a referral letter from GP yesterday arvo) but the receptionist was very ruuuuuuude. Also, not going to wait until May thanks. So after all this trouble, we went to see the optometrist instead. This optometrist was suggested from a family friend, he told us that this doctor is really good @@ The doctor asked about the condition etc and checked and said that it was 過敏性結膜炎 (allergic conjunctivitis). True that the irritation happens only at some times during the day and it's not red 24/7. Then the doctor did a quick eye sight test.
....O___O.....
Thank goodness he kept saying 妳的眼睛很好 (your eye/eyesight is very good).
phew I thought my eyesight would be worse now after meeting laptop-kun two years ago.
The optometrist asked what kind of eye drops I've been using and was like "hahahahah GP will only prescribe you antibiotics". Lesson learned, go to the optometrist instead of the gp when you have eye problems. The secretion was caused from the 白血球(white blood cells) trying to defend off the bacteria which was worsened by the allergy. Makes a bit more sense, back on oratane bitches. Should of gone to the optometrist three weeks ago =___=
I've spent more time blogging than working on English. So it's going to be a while (lol 3 days) until I post something decent. Fuu knew I forgot to do something in the holidays but pshh I can read 3 books in 5 days... I'm saying this with a hint of uncertainty. Also, I need to rewrite my entire work in translation essay and complete a paper 1 scaffold which I have no idea how to do. Everything is due on Monday, sweet I love English.
Oh and caught the school bus 775 today because the rain was so intimidating like "I will pour on you and drench you with my liquids". No don't even go there. I suppose that bus was there for smt students because the first stop was basically outside our library. Down side is that it takes 10mins + to actually get to myer but whatever, we had to go to this newsagent to get package so it didn't matter that much. How does it feel like to walk on mud?
I shouldn't of said that. TOMORROW. mud will come for me.
next year I'm going to do the exact same expression and pose
it shall be the annual swag photo
My first post ever on this blog was on the 27th of December 2010. I initially wanted this blog to be filled with my awkward drawings. I would link my blog on facebook and hope that my 100 facebook friends would come and read it. Now I only ever link it via skype. Around 2 years ago, my blog template also allowed people to comment on the posts and we had some funny chats on it. Now I can't seem to find a template that has a working comment thing.. Back then, I was really close with my taiwanese/asian buddies at Redeemer so I blogged in mandarin. Now I feel like I should be more international HAHAHHA As time goes on, I started to record down my boring life and thoughts (thank goodess I didn't end up pouring out my feels as much) instead of uploading my fugly drawings to entertain people. I blogged about how lazy and tired I was, it seemed like the only things I blogged about. HAHAH just looking back on my posts and thinking "damn I complain too much".
In 16th of April 2011, the day after my birthday, I blogged about how I was too lazy to blog about my birthday and how delicious the cake was. Seems reasonable because I was in grade 10... come on, I really didn't give much fucks about anything. On my birthday last year, I posted a corny as post to thank my mother. Sorry guise you'll have to deal with this year's 'thank you' post. Keeping it short aight.
Hi Mummy,
I love your letters, I've kept every single letter you've sent me and they're all packed away nicely in a box. I love receiving your letters and reading your handwriting. Every time I see the paper envelope, I'd take the letter and quickly run to my room and read it. I couldn't read some of the words back then, and had to ask grandma, but I didn't mind her reading it. I love your birthday presents too, even though it comes a week or two later than the actual date. I know you're much busier nowadays because you stopped writing letters to me. Instead, we talk on line or email. I've always had trouble saying "I love you" to people but when I'm on the phone with you or wherever, whenever, I could always comfortably say that.
Thank you for giving birth to this fugly black monster baby me.
Not the best thank you letter but this is the internet, stalkers don't get to know.
Thank you grandma for treating me like your daughter, to the point where dad would complain, grandpa for verbally whipping me into shape. You'd always say, "you'll thank me when you grow up". Yes I do thank you for being mean and tough on me, though I did hate you as much as I hated myself. Thank you dad for putting up with me, for rejecting those girls because of me. I'm glad that you've found your happiness now. I want to quickly grow up so you can relax more and not worry about me. Thank you stepmum for caring for me unconditionally and listening to my problems and giving me advice. Thank you stepdad" for being my parenting role model, being the coolest person in the world. Thank you uncles and aunties for being very kind to me and asking me jokingly if they could adopt me as their daughter and having your last name as my middle name. Most of all, thank you all my friends for being my friends. I'm really grateful for your existence. I really do. No matter how close/far we are.
brb THIRDWHEELING
HHAHA
get me emotional and I will do that, but while I'm not, I'll probably perform magigie style self defense.
I'm going to round off this post with this sentence.
They posted up a show girl's selfie and the comments were all like "you've finally posted something decent"
I won't link it here because I'm assuming that some of you are under 18 HAHAH I joke, just that AMPA is all about the automobile electronics not the chicks.
-cough-
but I have to say that she's really pretty *___*
as for the car design.. it's alright..
dang the wheels at the back +1
AHHAHAH shush
Most of you should know that our eyes are the window to our soul
I say wheels are the window to the car's soul
no matter how swag you dress, if the wheels ain't right, the whole thing is ..
Now this reminded me that I should try and memorise 2013's catalogue and see if I could spot and name them.
I memorised the 2011 catalogue back then, look at how interesting my life was </3
ahahahha well I'm feeling really guilty for resting so long but damn illness you got me there.
1:12-1:17
BEST EVER
HAHAHAHHAHAHHA CAN'T STOP REPLAYING THAT PART
Grandparents came back from Taiwan (finally :'D) and we went to the airport to pick them up. Then we went to grandparents house and helped them unpack etc. After that, le cousins and I went and studied the photos we have up hanging up on the wall. Some of them are really derp and awkward so I won't post it on the internet HAHAHAHAH trying to prevent intense blackmailing (don't think it's working).
This is a photo of le family on our little street in Taiwan. Grandpa's brother's family also lives on the same street so we always play together. 3 gen living together.
who's dat retard on the red bike
hahahaha man I was whitish
what happened QQ
I was tanned as a baby, light toned while living in tw, tanned living in australia, less tanned but still tanned now.
check out this even younger photo of le cousins and magigie
12th of jan, 2001

Then we got really bored and decided to play some cod. I didn't bring my laptop so we rotated around on cousin's computer. Nelson and I camwhoring while Jason's busy playing cod.
Being a bull
MESS WITH THE BULL AND YOU GET THE HORNS! - alistar
Met up with vic today at garbo and headed to southbank for lunch. We went to.. okay I forgot the name of the restaurant.... Anyway it was Japanese and we sat there for ages and talked about so many random things LOL Something along the lines of existing things in another type of space. ya know what I mean?
Yeah and school work :(
Realised that the teachers we liked (teaching method) all left the school </3
Here are some pictures of the food
because I'm asian.
Asians be taking photos of whatever they're eating.
After lunch, we went to city and met up with Julie to give her some stuff she bought online. Watching her play DDR is so entertaining. I tried but so unco. Then I tried bball machine again and scored 133 points.
julie: I've never seen you play so bad before
magigie: gan -misses another shot-
I miss those days (like 4 years ago lul) when I was tankish and could go over 200 and my boys be mirin'. Jokes we're on the same level.
Then we went and played some 2p game where you shoot zombies. We walked back and saw this guy throwing on his knees WHAT? He was really good and rarely missed his shots and shot at a consistent pace (wtf tank arms). After watching him play, we raced.
Vic (4P) vs Julie(3P) vs Maggie (2P)
game 1: we were pretty close. Julie and I were trying to knock each other out of the way at the end and while we were doing that, we didn't realise that victoria was catching on.. then she won.
game 2: I finally got the hang of drifting, though I failed a few times and miscalculated the corners but still managed to beat vic and come first :D
We went to hazel, chilled and played cards. We played 接龍 and heart attack (that game ever ends omg). Vic lost both the games (3 times each) and so she's going to shout us something huehue :D
On my way walking home, I saw this asian lady walking up my street and going to each of the mailboxes to put in this info card. I slowed down for her to put the card into our mailbox, hoping that she won't directly hand it to me or something...BUT after she went and put in the card, she turned back and asked me how my day was. Then she asked me which bus I took to get home.....and I told her the suburb bus and pointed towards the direction. She thought I was fit. Oh you. stop it. (=/////=)/
HAHHAHA I'm unfit. I ran out of breath playing bball and ddr.
(tryingto hit the space bar x2 times harder for it to work)
took a break from watching三國
too much info and characters in every ep, need to read the character backgrounds beforehand LOL
reckon this vid has the best translations but it actually has a deeper meaning
..for example..
"Can't persist in love relationships, there is no one left to prepare the wine. "
"儿女情长没法执着,有谁来煮酒 "
Let's break it up into two parts! (part 1 before the comma, part 2 after the comma)
Pt1: Can't persist in love relationships
In that period of the three kingdoms, relationships were ruined by the turbulent times. Male would go in the military, female would be homeless or be sent away. So couples would be apart forever and because of this, there are no such 'beautiful' love stories...pretty much saying, what's the point of knowing for figuring out (through war) who the formidable man is?
Pt2: There is no one left to prepare the wine
Caocao knew that Liu Bei was a talented person and that it's possible for Liu Bei to become threatening to him. So Cao Cao wanted to test and also kill Liu Bei if he is sure thatLiu Bei will become threatening to him in the future. One day, Cao Cao invited Liu Bei to warm the alcohol (wine) for him and asked "who do you think could be called a hero?". Liu Bei answered many people, but Cao Cao denied them all. Then lastly, Liu Bei said "Then I don't know, who do YOU think could be called a hero?" Then Cao Cao replied "A hero must have ________, so I think the hero could only be me and you". Liu Bei then pretty much knows what Cao Cao means. A lighting strikes at that moment and Liu Bei pretended to be really scared and hid under the table. Cao Cao saw this and judged that Liu Bei was a coward, and wouldn't be much of a threat in the future so didn't kill Liu Bei. Liu Bei outsmarted Cao Cao as he became the major threat to Cao Cao throughout the period. This is how the idiom 煮酒論英雄 came about.
-strokes imaginary beard-
Keep that story in mind for now. So the lyrics actually say " who is there to prepare the wine" but you can interpret it as that there is no one to prepare the wine. It kind of gives off this message that there's no need to state the towering figure. You know that from the story where Liu Bei acts as if he's scared of something so small to keep himself alive. Real intelligent people are the ones who know they must act a certain way (even though it's not who they really are) in order to survive in that environment. Could he be the real hero? Could Liu Bei actually be the towering figure? People are just trying to cheat each other in the three kingdom period. There's no point in trying to find out who the real hero or to judge who's right or wrong. Could keep going on about it but it's just getting so confusing LOL Sorry Pt2 was kind of a fail to try to explain things but
this immense admiration for caocao
because I like his personality though he's a little autocratic but that was what the military needed. If his soldiers become conceited and proud of their own skills, Cao Cao would probably kill him or disown him even though Cao Cao values the talented. I think some people start to speak of their own opinion etc when they find themselves to excel in that particular thing and become overly proud of it and start bragging etc. What they say are noticed and they start to build this confidence in speaking/preaching their own ideas to groups. Ultimately, it's not impossible to create his own empire of some sort. I think that Cao Cao wants to prevent that from happening and that's the reason why he just removes those potentially threatening people. Better to be safe than sorry ;D
I like that he's a fair person
He praises and rewards soldiers who have executed a deed for him. Cao Cao would reward them with the treasures they have in possession from castles they've broken into. As for those who haven't done anything, he doesn't give them anything. He would punish those who commit a crime but he would also punish himself. Which made his subordinates and people follow him. Dat thinking I like -nods-. Grandpa also believes that too and used that on me. He told me that I have to go out and work with him on the land and do useful things and that if he doesn't abide by the rule 'family members must do something useful to the family', he will not be allowed take meals. Same thing applies to me. Yep grandpa was my Cao Cao.
end of random thoughts(??)
BTW this is an Aussie guy's cover of the song
he's actually really popular in the asian countries LOL I did some research/stalking
swear there's some kind of herbal stuff in the soup hmm but not bad..
sunnybank still has the better pho imo (cost and taste)
Went to the doctors today again cause sometimes it gets really irritating at night (to the point where I go to sleep before 2am). So I went along with le parents to see gp again, third time lucky pls. When we got there, the place was packed with sick people. People coughing and sneezing etc and there's us three, looking fine but not really. Then dad walked over to these two old grandpa and grandma and said long time no see. Then they saw me and were like omg you grew so much the last time I saw you you were like this small. Everyone can relate yeah? They started chatting etc and asking about how grandpa and grandma are going etc since they're actually their friends but they know us because we close ;D ..I suppose. They asked which school I was attending and I said QA at toowong and they were like OOOH that school where all the smart people go. 5 People insta turn their head around.
magigie OS: hahahahaha. stereotypes. I'm not one of those smart ones soz I'm the not so bright one there to make the bright ones brighter:D
After seeing the doctors, stepmum and I went to the japanese noodle shop next to formosa.
So good so cheap.
Best kind of noodles = udon
no exception
always order udon when I go there
After lunch, we went into sunnybank plaza and went to medibank.
We walked in and there were 2 free desks, 1 was a middle aged asian lady and the other was a 20+ handsome asian guy. Stepmum walks in, hesitates for a few seconds and walks to the asian guy.
maggie os: sorry I can't handle his hotness I'm going to go sit at the waiting area.
It's not those oh-damn-can-you-please-get-to-know-me feeling. It's more like a, oh-wow-can-you-please-not-shine-so-bright-my-eyes-are-dying feeling.
On our way to天天 to buy some chicken and pork chop (ew), we walked behind this chick and her bf...
btw her hair was different shades of brown
Have you seen those girls who just flip forward and their hair goes forward and flip their hair back again? I don't know why they do that? Is it because it makes the curls look better? Lol I don't know.... but damn this gurrrrl needs to wash her hair properly it stinks like ..like... stinky things... It looked like those tumblr brown curly hair but I wouldn't want to put my fingers through her hair I agree with you stepmum. It just smells/looks like she never washed her hair and just hair sprayed it once every 3 days.
Also saw some QA people omg fuk luckily I don't know know them I did not come out today to see you people
I did not come out today for you people to see me
omg they saw me roaming in my thongs and casual v1.0.0 wear, carrying bags of groceries
playing creative cause I'm resource-less now and playing survival from beginning?
aint nobody got time for dat
I was watching this episode on talk show about children who were raised up by animals. They were discussing about how 'strange' the children have become and how some of them changed biologically (started growing hair/fur) when they lived with the animals. There was a boy who was abandoned in the woods in Russia and was raised by a pack of wolves. He walked on fours and ran very quickly, he doesn't use his hands to eat and doesn't know how to talk. He just doesn't do things that human beings do, he behaves fully like a wolf. Howls to the moon, fears in closed space.
What I found irritating is the fact that the people in the talk show kept saying how abnormal, weird, strange and wrong this child has become. Why does that child have to be like the human beings when we are the ones who have neglected them? If he was brought up in the wild...I think it's perfectly normal for him to not act like a human. Why must people judge the child as an intellectually restricted person? How is that bad? He's still living well in the woods and with the animals (doesn't have to deal with the bs we go through). He shouldn't be forced to fit in to the community. It's so unfair for him. Who he sees as his family/his kind, are the wolves. Not us. He's a part of them, not us. Why should we be selfish and all of a sudden claim to take him 'back'. I just don't agree with the way they talked about him. In another case, the scientists successfully kept this twins away from the wild and tried to put them back into the society but of course, they've adapted to the wild and died soon after. ISN'T THIS ENOUGH TO SHOW THAT PEOPLE SHOULD JUST LET IT BE. When the child is mentally adapted to the wild, just let them be with what they know and recognise as home.
ARRHHHHH PEOPLE.
CAKE *____*
<3<3<3<3
it's okay few days left ...URRHR CAKE PLEASE
once I start eating cake, I'll keep eating them for weeks like I can't stop.
That's why I've been avoiding cake for a few months because THAT one slice of cake will trigger this intense crave for more :(
It sounds better when I don't look at the video and just listen to the song. Tbh only clicked on this vid because RWJ's name was on the title. I actually subscribed destorm and never really watched his vids. Not really use to RWJ rapping but it's good :D
on a side note:
maaan I want to watch anna akana's part in InAPPropriate comedy. She acted as the asian driver and saw like 5 seconds of it and it's pretty damn funny. Iron man 3 is also coming out -sprinkles confetti around- time to wait for the upload and watch it with my homies me,myself and I :(
Stuffing around with redstone I should be studying ...
going on survival trying to find zombies I should be studying ...
Friday
Met up with vic at sunnybank and we walked around and decided to go try out this new shop - Coco Jungle Chocolate Lounge. We looked at the menu for a good 10 minutes. At first, I didn't notice the name of the shop so when I saw 'coco jungle crepe', I thought they were going to give me a jungle. Then vic had to tell me I'm wishin'. I ordered Strawberry crepe and it was ermaghurdly good because it's been ages since I've tasted something quite like this (desserts in general). Vic ordered crepe with breakfast stuff inside with garden salad. Overall the food is quite expensive imo but it's okay I saved. Then we ate and chatted for nearly an hour LOL Mostly it's just me venting and ranting...
Don't worry it's doesn't have anything to do with school and friends etc
psh gossiping is for the weak.
Then we went to Newway and sang for quite a long time.
I suck :(
but it's fun anyway~
I love how the darkness eats away half of my face
Saturday
I slept at 3 and dad woke me up at 9 this morning
dad: we're going outside to eat
maggie: nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo -turns over hides under cover-
Then I thought I should stop being so 宅 (indoorsy person). It's like whever my parents suggest or want to go out to eat, I'd be doing the devo rawr liek " nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooorrrrhhhhhhhhh". Dat karaoke outing was INDOORS fyi. Yeah Anyway I ended up going outside.
After we had breakfast, we decided to go to sunnybank fish market to buy seafood. It was my first time going in there but my parents have been there liek 1209421 times. Dad is friends with uncle d and we've been to one of their new years gathering so he could recognise me.
dad: -points at this A4 laminated chart- who made this translation chart?
uncle d: your brother
he wasn't joking
dad spend a while trying to find an error in the chart
what brothers do
Then we saw this fortune toad on the counter but with no coin in its mouth so we told them to put any coin in the mouth. Then they were like, OOH that's probably why it's not working that effectively.
Sorry I'm not doing a great job at blogging (even after 2 years).
the worse part of making any building is doing the roof, especially when you have something like this.
I was just trying to finish off the roof (I finished the left part), then I fking fell down the block I was standing on.
:(
how the fudgery do i get back to that place fuuuuuu
the right side are all blocked already and i'll have to smash them down again to be able to get to that place :(
I've learnt my lesson, work from the 'dead-end' first.....
I've fallen down 32293857932 times already damn it's not like Brickforce where you can just wear a jetpack and go around everywhere (help me minecraft masters). Oh and the reason why I stopped playing Brickforce was cause I lag so hard when we're in game and I get shot in my base. K cool.
Actually found Brickforce in the summer holidays and played it hardout in Taiwan.
What you do in the game is that you make a map (or you can choose not to and just join games). You use blocks to make the map and you can make whatever you want (like minecraft). Then you join games or host games and people come and play against/with you. The people are split in 2 teams and you spawn at two designated spots (where you put the marks at in your map) and you go shoot the enemy team members down. Kind of like minecraft+cod but brick version. Anyway, yeah comp too bad for it, net too bad for it :\
