What happens if you keep losing sleep?
You go crazy that's what.
Well, I certainly am. I'm sleeping when the world's awake, and staying awake when it's asleep. ZZZZZZ.
Doing my Media Communication essay is driving me up the walls. I don't get what the readings are trying to say; I mean, I see that they're saying something, but what they're spelling out to be? I have no idea.
And just when I think I GET IT, the evil that is deep thinking would make the matter way more complicated for me to be able to just sit down and just effin' write a relatively easy essay (well that's what my tutor promised).
Topic is pretty simple, what are the roles of the media under the classical ideals of liberal democracy and how well does the NZ media fulfil those roles.
(If only I could say, I think they're doing a crappy job. There. I deserve an A)
S-I-M-P-L-E.
But nooooooooo...I just have to be me, and think beyond the topic, and in the end, I can't even come up with an intro. Read more you say?
More I read the more confused I become and the more referencing becomes a nightmare.
I've been cooped up in my apartment since Sunday. Sunday people!
I so need to spend my money right now.

Just a few more days to goooooo
Oh dear, my body clock is going crazeeee!
I've been staying up late for sahur; I usually eat around 4am, but thing is, after sahur I stay up for... Dawson's Creek! I'm hooked!
Because I sleep late, I wake up even wayyyy late. And I've also been taking wayy too many afternoon naps. There goes my brownie points for Ramadhan.
Anyway, went round town today coz it's a nice day to be out, and guess who I saw milling about?
Robyn Malcolm from Outrageous Fortune!
Then on my way back from Cindy's place, guess who I saw emerging in pairs from the Albion pub?
The Rugby League Team! Don't ask me what team, but they were wearing kinda AB looking jersey...The grey and black one...
They were so HAWT! And they smelt so good! I love how some guys have that bodywash/soap smell on them even after they've long had their showers...And no, I didn't go up to them and sniff...
I tried walking as closely as possible to them AND take a whiff. Haha.

Search and Destroy!
Oh how I heart thee
Shopping!
Living and going to a uni that's in the city means that in between classes or when I'm bored to death I can just head down to Queen Street and explore my fave shops!
Valleygirl offers dirt cheap clothes, most are gaudy looking, but a handful are really good, like their knits and dresses.
Opshops
Recycle Boutique is great if you wanna get hold of some NZ designers' stuff. 4.50 for a Ricochet shirt is way awesome. Unfortunately they also sell clothes from Farmers and Supre that are just not meant to be sold and definately not worn anymore! Most of the clothes sold at Search and Destroy on Krd cost around 5 dollars. Saw a cute fuschia skirt, and a grey jersey hooded minidress that could use a good home. My home maybe? Hehe. I definately prefer them to Fast and Loose. Search and Destroy only takes cash. Thing with opshops though, you've gotta spend time combing over rubbish before you find that special something. I usually come out with aching arms (and a happy heart!).
Free Way on Chancery Lane. OOOOOOO I can't even begin to tell you the state I was in as I discovered a new store has arrived in town! This one has gotta be the cutest around, with candles, flowers and birdcages as part of the decor, place smells delicious and they've got the friendliest SAs to help you out too. Head straight to the right as you enter to get carefully chosen-easy on the wallet-made in China garments or if you've got some serious moolah to spend the head straight to the left where most clothes are made in NZ or the USA.
Coffee!
Esquires and Gloria Jeans serve the best coffees. I haven't tried Columbus yet. Heard they're even better. Brazil on Krd has been closed down.
KK's buttered prawns!
Almost like the ones in TOPSPOT Kuching. So good I'm still thinking about 'em now. Oh yum.
Music!
1234 by Feist, Save Room by John Legend, and Konichiwa Bitches by Robyn have been playing on and on, for days on my laptop.
Tuna Sushis
Best tuna sushi as of now? Sold at the sushi place behind Wendy's. Friendly uncle too.
On to sad news...
My mom told me last week that Scamper has passed away. Scamper's been with us since 1997, way back when we used to live in Bangi. He lurves to lick all the other cats, guess if he was human, he'd be a hair stylist! Scamper has always been there for my fave cat and his sis. For them, there's no such thing as "Three's a crowd" as they eat, sleep and play together, every single day.
I'll miss you Scamper!
Scamper's the black one in front of the door.
And oh yeah, don't worry bout the skinny orange one. He died a long time back. May they rest in peace.
