This is a world of dreams and reverie, where I felt the stars explode around me. A grass blade flashed with a gleam as it slashed open a moonbeam, and I stared back breathlessly. As mountains of fruit tumbled out, I barely had the chance to shout; a lingonberry avalanche crashed over me.

OH and I am no longer skinned; helped out with Aida's wedding catering thing yesterday (despite being totally knackered because of the church party the night before) and after working for an entire day without sitting down, I got rewarded with £40 plus a £20 tip, YES.
With the £10 we've got for doing Ambassador work on thursday, turns out I won't have to go through Christmas miserably after all. :D:D

Monday, 8 December 2008 AT 5:43 pm


It's been exactly a week since I last blogged here. Didn't go to college again today, must be a Monday thing, maybe I'm allergic or something :D
I can feel a sore throat (or cough or both) coming up, fucking hell go away! Eh, eating Maltesers at this point of time doesn't help any does it? Pffft.
Big Bang has the LOLest song titles I've come across in a long time. I mean, "LaLaLa" was cute enough, and now "NomNomNom"? HAHAHAHAHAAA /kicked
(What's next, "FapFapFap"? Okay forget I ever said that! /bricked repeatedly)
Cheongmal sarang handa <3
Ever since I saw that little gif. of the boys on crack while filming the seaside Baskin Robbins CF, I've been coming up with a fic in my head subconsciously. Probably going to blog it down over in LJ some day as a drabble or oneshot.


Alright, just one more sociology essay question left! Just my luck that it's the last on the list and naturally the one that carries the most marks. Pffffffffffffffffftttttttt.
19 more days to go!

It's either my debit card or iTunes that hates me. Damn it, no iPod touch upgrade.

I didn't go to college today, woke up with everything spinning like crazy. Clockwise, might I add. So bad.
On another note, Big Bang is The Absolute Love! They are seriously the most versatile band I've ever had the fortune to come across. Plus, they're all hot guys, cough. (SEUNG RI-OPPA!)

It's the first day of December, so 26 more days to go!
