AHHH O-Week

21:48 Cyndi 0 Comments

My Orientation week (O-week) started on Monday! Actually all of the other universities except for my one has already officially started classes but ours start next week! I am really nervous and extremely excited for it!

I'm sorry I haven't been blogging much!!! One of my new years resolutions was to blog a lot more but in the end I didn't even blog as much as I should! The thing is, I don't really know what to blog about since I'm such a boring person.

However, I shall just continue ranting on about my life even if no-one cares anyways.

I'm only going to Curtin on Monday and Wednesday because one of the events is compulsory and Wednesday is when all the fun things happen. I joined so many clubs today! It was like those Japanese high schools where you join clubs except you can join as many as you want!!

I joined two Christian clubs, the Anime club, two Asian/Chinese clubs and I plan on joining a Marketing club except I had no money left for the club fee so I couldn't join! I think I'm only going to stay in maximum three clubs as I won't have enough time for so many of these clubs to be honest since I have a job now! But first year will be less stressful compared to second and third year so it's best to participate in as many events as you can!

I honestly can't wait until university starts!


On a side note -- I still don't have lavender hair :( On another side note - I am still an unfashionable blogger. SIGH!

18th!

15:43 Cyndi 1 Comments

I can't believe I'm 18 already. I still remember being 12 and freaking out because I thought being 20 seemed so old. It's really exciting at the same time because now I am officially an adult and I get to go online shopping using my own card and I get to go to university and drink legally ;) 

I turned 18 on the 8th of February! I didn't really have a fancy party - just a casual dinner with my closest friends and sister.

I didn't take my own camera ~ so I only managed to steal these photos from my friend's camera!

Playing around with my FANCY new fish-eye camera! Back to old-school cameras (yey)


Having dinner at Tiamo ~ my dish wasn't that nice (boo)

Scuse the messy room *embarassed* but birthday outfit of the day/night!

The AFTER party ~ Long story here...

FUNNY THING about the above photo. Originally we had planned to go clubbing (first time!) after my birthday dinner but today being ridiculously my unlucky day (!) it turns out my passport expired like 2 years ago so I wouldn't be able to get into the club anyways. So after the whole day getting excited about going clubbing and drinking beer and cocktails ~ I ended up staying at home and liking the rest of my Facebook birthday messages.

tryna be modles - this is our 'model' pose

Overall, I had a really fun birthday as opposed to my other birthdays where I usually just celebrate it at home with my family and eating weird cake. We drove all the way South to see the skyline which was amazing and I wish I could show you right now but unfortunately I'll have to wait until my friend gives them to me or something.

Thanks for reading! :)

[RANT] Old + New Job

17:24 Cyndi 0 Comments

Today was my first 'official' day at work - official because I had training before and tonight was my first official day where I get paid for working!

This is my second job and I like it so far and I hope I will continue to like it because all of the staff there are so nice and help me out. I don't mean to be such a bitch about my other job at Hungry Jack's but honestly some people working there were being really hostile towards me. I really need to get this off my chest. Some customers were also really rude and unfriendly. (Most of them were generally lovely!) Most of all - I had to take all of this for $8.40 an hour! That's really not a lot and the shift hours were killing me. I had to buy my own lunch during my breaks and they are usually more than $8.40!! I know I shouldn't complain since it's a fast food store and it's usually like that but I basically do really similar things as where I am working right now (except for taking in orders and telephone orders etc.) and I get treated with a lot more respect!

My Questions



What is your favourite Song/Band? 

My favourite band/song always changes but currently I am loving Sir/Sr. Sly ! They are an amazing band and I love their EP. My favourite song as of right now is Ghost - Sir Sly. 


 Have you ever been abroad? 


Yes, I've only ever been to Hong Kong, Beijing and some other cities in China. Beijing was really interesting and we were really lucky to have snow on the last day we were there! It was extremely cold though but I loved visiting the palaces and the GREAT WALL OF CHINA!! (And of course, the 2008 Olympics' Bird's Nest) 



However, I really want to visit more places because I want to go through culture shock!


Who is your favourite actor/actress (if you have one?)? 

I have so many that I really like but I don't have a specific favourite! I'll just list some of my top favourites!

  • Jennifer Lawrence
  • Emma Stone
  • Anne Hathaway
  • Keira Knightley




  • Joseph Gordon-Levitt
  • Robert Downey Jr.
  • Johnny Depp
  • Paul Dano
  • JOO WON










Would you want to go into space? 

Yes! I used to want to be an astronaut after we studied about Astronomy in science class and learned about Plato and Aristotle (cause apparently everything relates to them). 


What's your favourite kind of drink? 

My favourites tend to always change. I used to LOVE coffee, then mocha, then English Tea! I currently love drinking Soy Milk but it always changes. I love anything with caramel in it!

edit:// I LOOOOOOVEEE GINGER BEER




I HATE chai latte! That is foul and I don't get the hype. I will punch you if you give me a chai latte - I am literally throwing up just thinking of it.  

What do you like to do in your spare time (maybe when you should be doing something else)? 
I like to read -- especially Haruki Murakami novels even though they always leave me feeling completely disappointed because there's never really an actual plot-line! However I always end up reading Murakami books anyways because they're so philosophical and interesting without bordering into the supernatural/fantasy genre which I generally don't really like reading. 




I also like to play games of course!~ Team Fortress 2 (although I have to admit - I'm an absolute noob.) I also LOVE to play Sims 3 and Professor Layton and Pokemon on my NDS. I also play otome games on my DS and phone. Other times I just read manga or watch anime


Whats your favourite TV show? 
I don't have a favourite TV show unless you count Bob's Burgers as one. I watched four whole seasons of BOTH Ghost Whisperers and Supernatural if that counts but I wouldn't say they were my favourite TV shows. I just like them. I kinda liked the Vampire Diaries but I've only watched one season. I wish I could belong to a TV show fandom D: but sadly I really can't commit to a TV show!




What kinds of fashion styles do you like?
I love looking at Harajuku and Avant-garde fashion styles but I know I would never be able to pull it off. I don't really like the fashion styles they have here because it's so restricted and people always end up wearing similar clothes. My own personal fashion style is completely different to the fashion style I actually like. That's because I'm POOR and I won't be able to pull it off or my parents will completely disown me if I start wearing the clothes Juria Nakagawa wears since my parents are 'modest' dressers and prefer the 'classic' look. 

Below are some of the fashion styles I really like! 





 Do you ever want kids (one day)? If so how many?
Not really interested in kids right now. I'm more into adoption but if I do end up *magically* having kids - I would like three because I have this theory about the third child..

Whats your favourite kind of cake? 
This is going to be totally cliched - but I really like green tea cake and SHOCKINGLY durian cake! I also love strawberry cakes. 

Where to get your inspiration from?
Mostly from Tumblr, films, YouTube videos, Deviantart and random websites I find online.
