Must. Get. Out.

So. Bored. Nothing to do at home. Too hot to go outside. Finished watching HIMYM season 3 and don't feel like watching anything asian right now. So sick of playing games and there is nothing interesting to read. Perhaps I should look up recipes and then cook all day? Hmm. =S

Stay at home = boring, hot
Go out = have fun, spend money

TV and internet keep me sane at night. Music keeps me sane during the day.

How depressing. Good thing beach house is coming up soon otherwise I might go nuts being at home all day doing nothing... @____@

Bleh. I hate summer.

Feeling Good

Something stuck in my head:

"Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Yeah freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me

And I'm feeling good"

Good song.

Wombeyan Caves

Had a day-trip with my family out to Wombeyan Caves yesterday. It was really fun and the drive from Mittagong along the unsealed road was pretty cool and scenic. The scenery was beautiful and me and my sister spammed the cameras with whatever we saw outside the window. When we eventually arrived, we had a picnic in the rest area which would've been a lot better if there were no flies. It was quite funny actually, all the waving above the food to keep the flies at bay... xD

Afterwards, my dad opted to stay behind so my siblings and I made our way to the Information centre to pay for the token to enter the cave and get a map. The ranger told us we could hike for 30mins to get to a small cave called the Tinted cave then walk back to the Figtree cave to do our self-guided tour. It sounded simple so we agreed to try it out.

If any of us had realised just how much bushwalking was involved we would've brought sunscreen and hats, so instead we copied other bushwalkers and put jackets on our heads ahahaha. It was so hot and sunny!! =S

[Rarrr...it's been a while now and I forgot what I was gonna write. Yes, I know, lame. -____-" ]

Happy New Year

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
And it feels like Summer again. I'm feeling a lot better today but I think it'll still be another couple of days before I am back at full health.

2008 was a good year, and looking back there's nothing I would've changed. I hope this year will be even better, that I'll have even more great memories of times with friends and family, and start being more independent and hopefully become more mature. I aim to get off my ass and start doing things I've been putting off and, of course, achieve good marks at uni. Most of all though, I want to continue to improve myself in all aspects so I be a better daughter, a better sister and a better friend.

Additional goals to achieve:
+ cut back on spending
+ learn to cook
+ improve my Chinese

Yup. It's mostly general and I haven't really put anything too specific but hey I'm turning 21 this year, I'm sure I will have more resolutions after my birthday.

Ok that's sorted. In other news we came home last night from a quick trip to the shops (it was my turn to buy munchies) only to be greeted with the sight of a HUGE cockroach sitting on the top of our front door. Gaaaaahhh it was so not good.

Made a request of my brother to deal with it but despite his attempts it scurried away under the door into the house and hid behind the piano.

Z-O-M-G

Luckily it emerged later during the night and my brother managed to catch it.
