Happy Birthday To The Happy Kiwi

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIRANDA!!!

I hope you have an awesome day, an awesome year in fact... and actually, I hope you have an awesome life =D May everything go well for you and be happy =D

*soooo cheesy...*

I feel a bit ashamed. I was logging on to blogger to write Miranda a happy birthday post, then I was looking at the updates and I saw Naa's. Mine's not a video or anything fancy =[ But I hope the thought gets through to you hehe ^^

I pretty much said everything last night. So... you're 19. Woahhh so old! I'm joking. 19 is a good number. You're not an annoying teenager, yet you're still a teenager, and you're not just legal, and you're not hitting the 2's yet. I actually no longer know what I'm talking about. I think I'm just waffling now. I'm trying to say something really inspiring and awesome to live up to Naa's video post but I lack in that area. My post title was supposed to be "Happy Birthday Miranda" but Naa already wrote that so I worked really hard to come up with the title above: Happy Birthday To The Happy Kiwi" ^^

Finally, here comes the birthday song:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MIRANDA,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

Epic Failure of Lavender Ice Cream

The title explains it pretty well... my lavender ice cream didn't go so well ='[ sad times. I now think that I should invest in an ice cream machine... but then, if I had one, that'd make me eat so much more ice cream - not sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing... I'm leaning towards the latter.

After I stabbed a spoon in it

A close of up the spoon stabbing =P In this photo, it doesn't look too bad

The worst thing is: it's not even purple

It tastes worst than it looks

First Few Days

The first few days hasn't been particularly interesting. Besides the fact I was rushing round to view accommodation. Well the good news is: I now have a nice place to stay. It's about a 5-10 minute walk to the management and economic sections. And even the other building my lectures are in is only about a 10 minute walk - LG: life's good.

I viewed two places on Monday... The first place was close (5 minute walk) but I didn't really like it. Something about it, we just didn't click. The second place was nicer... I liked it. But I had trouble finding the place. Trams here are weird. It's like a bus, you have to press the stop button - I have never come across a tram that does that. So I was on the tram, like an idiot, I expected it to stop at my stop. Well, it didn't. So I had to walk back a stop... and there were so many roads and roundabouts - my orientation skills had a limit to them. But in the end I found the place ^^ Before I left, I asked if there was a quicker direct back to the city centre... of course there was ^^ It was this giant hill.

This place is full of hills. Good in a way... more exercise ^^ But sometimes I'd be like "Yeah... down hill baby" then on the way back I'm like "What goes down must come back up". Hopefully the next time my family/friends see me I'll be a little bit fitter and thinner =P

Then on Tuesday I looked at one other place and it was it. It was cheaper (cheapest, in fact), close (5-10 minute walk) and I liked it =] So on Wednesday, my dad came and took me shopping. This is a very important process: make dad pay for all the expensive stuff - students are allowed to be poor. So I bought stuff like washing powder and fabric conditioner (expensive); extra toothpaste (also expensive... well affordable, but might as well); water (parents have cars ^^)... I bought so much, I can't even remember what I've bought. But hopefully some time in the next week I can go to Ikea and get the rest of the stuff.

I'll upload photos of my room once it's more tidy.

This is the bread I lived off on Thursday, it was so big, I couldn't finish it... I had to throw about half of it away =[

NVMM Party Part III: The Presents

I've got quite a bit of blogging to do... I haven't blog for a while - I had no internet or I had no time. Both were annoying.

Here's the next bit. I've just chosen a few photos of the awesome things that three super awesome people bought me.

DUCKIE ~ Ducks can flyyyyy (not general knowledge)

Awesome - you should read it

Includes many loves: Boys Over Flowers (Best drama in 2008 - I think that was the year); Big Bang (just pure awesomeness); Byakuya (what can I say - I wish he was real... I'm joking, I'm not that crazy); Balloons (one of the happiest songs ever)
