Ravenous...

Lately my appetite has been abit of a monster. I've been eating non-stop. Also... been having the worst chocolate cravings ever! Its all I can think about.

At uni, Gareth Denyer is teaching us about fat, obesity and its effects on metabolism. A possible explaination to my sudden peak in food obsession is the fact that during my surgery, my weight went below my "set point" (a set weight that your body thinks you should be because you've been that weight for so long). As a consequence, my metabolim has dropped dramatically in an attempt to control my set point weight. This results in an increase in appetite to return body weight to the set point. Which is where Im at now.

Of course chocolate cravings dont need any explaination. ahem.

Sometime ago Woolies was selling TimTams at $1.60 each. Bargain!!! So I bought like 20 packets or something. Boy am I glad for that. Cos now Im ploughing through them like nobody's business. Can't really afford to buy proper chocolate cos Cowra House Party is this weekend.

Which brings me to this weekend. Im excited. :D

Jeniffer Knapp has some good songs. :) She's so accousticy! ♥ ♥ ♥

Chocolate cravings....




Halloween is coming. Boss say you gimme chocolate...

You're Beautiful...

That James Blunt has been haunting me. Theres such a whimsical notation behind the word "beautiful". And I like how he has these random high notes scattered throughout his songs. Takes you by surprise and you feel the thrill of listening to a new song.

How I Spent Labour Day...

Ahhhh monday was such a lovely day!! The weather was summery and perfect for hanging out with someone I love to hang out with. :P

We went to Koorong and I got a Jennifer Knapp cd for $8.50! :o I wanted to get Jars of Clay's Redemption songs but sadly, it was $30. I guess, after calculation, that it would be about $25 after the 15% discount.....maybe next time. Switchfoot was only $13 after discount too! But I already bought it in Malaysia. Argh bargain! :P

Went to dirt cheap cds after and got James Blunt for $14. Tet finally got his Foo Fighters. Not really a big fan of FF, personally :p

We had lunch at this fish and chips shop and came across a new type of Pepsi:



Tasted like Pepsi mixed with cordial. The bottle said it was mango and tangerine. Quite nice, nontheless. Unarguably exotic :P

And we watched Howl's Moving Castle at night! It was okay.... I didnt cry. All good movies make you cry. But it had alot of magical elements, true to Miyazaki's style which makes it really interesting. Very creative, the way some things were presented. Abit confusing story line. And yes, Howl is such a bishounen!!! lol.

Anyways back to hectic uni life. Already the workload is making me neglect immaculate house keeping regulations and my uncle has been dropping alot of sour hints. I hate that. I cant wait to move out. Honestly, my uncle needs to learn to relax. Just cos he's intrinsically ferrety, he has no right to demand his fellow inhabitants to pick up his obsessive compulsive disorders. Sheesh. 3 more years.....

Catch Up Time

Time to catch up on all the work I was supposed to do during the holidays but never got to do because I didnt feel up to it. Looks like a long night ahead.

Coffee said she'll stay up with me tonight. True friend indeed. :)

Resound: Aftermath

Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders. In a loud voice they sang:
"Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!"
Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing:
"To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!"
Revelations 5:11-13 (NIV)





Resound as usual had its glitches. I dunno why technical probs always happen during the event and never during practise or whatever :P just random slip ups due to probability i guess.

Interviewed some people about it tonight. All of them said that they were encouraged, enjoyed the evening and that if we ever held something like Resound again, they would definately come.

And Deb Fung's voice is amazing!!!! <3 And she writes awesome music!!! And she's got the most envious almond eyes!!! She's so cool ^^

---> wrote a paragraph here which i lost for some reason... o_O The long and short of the paragraph was that I want to make a cd with people's feedback and stuff so if you went to Resound, it would be helpful (and nice) to come up to me and we can get a 2-minute-or-so interview going.

Man I'm bushed. Time for bed. :)

God is awesome and gracious and almighty and yea, for sure He deserves heaps of glory and honour and praise. More than we can ever offer. Hallalujah and maranatha.

Nerd Update:

Resound is on Today!! So pumped!!!! :D

Also, goodbye to my drugs. I've finally finished my course. :)

I think today will be a better day...

To my friends in UK...

SOLAR ECLIPSE: On October 3rd, the moon will glide in front of the sun, producing a solar eclipse visible from Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The eclipse won't be total, but rather annular, meaning that the moon won't be big enough to completely cover the sun. Observers along the narrow path of annularity will see a ring of fire encircling the moon--spectacular!
