I've been thinking about my new job and how orderly and neat I will have to be.
I rather think I will be like a Hotaru from the J Drama 'Hotaru no Hikari' - Very dependable at work, but a complete slob at home. Though I assure you my 'bucho' is hella not coming from my workplace. Watch the drama to see what I mean XD
Actually, I ferociously recommend the 'Hotaru no Hikari' drama. It's one of my absolute favourites, especially the first season.
Yesterday I was feeling the need for anime so I tried to get some on my ipod, but it wasn't working, which was very sad so then I decided to stalk pictures of One Piece so I could have a new BG. I found a good app so my ipod screen now proudly shows Luffy's gorgeous face whenever I activate it.
It was Chansung from 2PM before that, but he is Sarah's thing, not mine.
DSFJSLDKJF! You know when you remember something really cute and it makes you feel like your toes will drop off because of the absolute cuteness of it all? That just happened to me. I love those kinds of moments, but they are very bad for you if you are trying VERY hard to control your emotions. On the other hand, if you have a memory, it is something that has actually taken place, therefore, it gives you more leave to spazz about it, since it really has happened. Not like getting all worked up about what you think might happen or whatever.
I'm probably not making a whole lot of sense here am I?
I just watched the Llama song Video after a few years of not seeing it and it still amuses me greatly. It's nice to know my humour has never changed. Really REALLY stupid things make me laugh. They don't have to be intelligent and they don't have to make sense, in fact, if there is a stupid silence, it will make me want to L O L.
Yesterday I was sat in church and it was quite a serious sermon about honouring God and in my head all I could think about was how frequent it is nowadays to see young men wearing denim pedal pushers and it took great self control for me not to burst out laughing. But honestly, why on earth do guys think it is appropriate to wear denim pedal pushers? WHY? I don't think I'll ever understand it, though I think Ben Barnes wore some in a photo shoot and I didn't care at all. He is magnificent though, so he can get away with that kind of disgraceful behaviour.
Also, why do guys never wear belts any more? In the past few weeks I have seen far too many half mast trousers for my liking and if you are not Young Bae wearing Armani boxer shorts then for goodness sake hoist the mainsail!
Mind you, girls can be equally as bad - if not worse when it comes to these type of things (guilty as charged), but at least they can wear denim pedal pushers without looking hilarious.
Hmmmm, my tummy is grumbling, maybe I should head down and get something to eat in a couple of minutes. Maybe some toast with peanut butter or something like that. A cup of tea would be nice too. Ugh, my tummy is swollen - I despise bloated-ness.
Might have a nap later too, still not feeling 100% Not complaining about it though, it's just one of those things.
So, a list of what I must do before I move and start work.
1. Watch the entire three series of Avatar the Last Airbender again (priorities)
2. Budget my wage monthly so I have enough money to save and spend after paying rent and travel and necessities and all that jazz.
3. Find out more about my job, because I'm completely ignorant about it and REALLY need to be more clued in - I have no idea how I got it....well actually I do, God gave it to me, and I trust Him. If he thinks I'm capable, then I must be.
4. Get some office-y type clothes, because I can't really turn up to work in my 'Surfng makes me happy' T-shirt.
5. Spend lots of time with my family and hug Sam a great deal before I have to move. Kitchen dancing is a must
Okie, my tummy is telling me that I should finish off this post and get some abstinence!
Sayonara for now,
Aishiteru ~

Gotta Face the Change
Ok, I'm borrowing a laptop to write this. It has very small keys.
I'm looking out of the window of what will be my bedroom for the next year.
I like this room, It has an amazing view over the garden and then the countryside beyond. There are at LEAST three apple trees in view. If only the branches came closer to the window, I could reach out and pick one, rather than go downstairs and get food from the kitchen.
That is SO lazy.
The emo-ness from yesterday has gone, though, it does come back a little when I think of my dog. I will sorely miss my dog. Yesterday I even got my sister to put the phone near his head so I could hear him panting - It may seem weird to you, but meh, I don't actually care.
I realize that I haven't really been blogging recently and that will change, but I have to be settled first and I also have to save for a new laptop. My slowing down of writing this shizzle isn't because I don't want to anymore. It's just because I've not been able to.
It's going to be so weird having a wage. It's also going to be so weird working and actually getting money for it. I don't mind working for no money, because then it makes working FOR money feel like a treat haha.
OH YEAH! I went camping last weekend, It was an AMAZING time. I was feeling really negative about it before it happened because things seemed to be going wrong, but my feelings were happily proven wrong.
More reason why we should never follow our feelings blindly.
So it rained the whole weekend (mostly) but we managed to go down a mine and go boating - which was utterly fabulous, we all got soaked and had races on the lake and pretended to be pirates.
I was able to be completely immature, which utterly suits me fine. It was amusing because I was the oldest acting like the youngest and the youngest was the one who acted like the oldest - though to be honest, none of us were behaving very maturely.
I wish I could relate the whole trip word by word, but it was all so good I wouldn't know where to begin. The card games were wicked too, I learned a host of new games. The best one was called Chinese
Snap I don't know why this particular version of snap is called 'Chinese', but it's kind of typical that my favourite game would be somewhat Asian related.
Actually, I'm feeling a bit rough today. I just dosed myself up with paracetamol to numb a growing headache and my tummy is being a bit iffy as well - UGH.
But you know, you have to live with these things and conquer them otherwise you always end up complaining about life and I don't want to be like that.
Still, I should probably go for a nap soon and sleep it off while I can.
In fact, I will do that now.
Talk soon me lovelies!

Ok, so this is quite a special post because I have a special announcement to make. I'm on the iPod because my laptop has officially kicked the bucket and he needs to be sent to the computer doctors so my photos and a few other things can be retrieved.
Well anyway, the news.
As of today I am officially employed.
IKR! can you actually believe it?
It hasn't actually sunk in yet and there are going to be some very big changes in my near future. I'm not scared because I know this is the right way to go, but all I can think about is how much I'm going to miss my family.
Home sickness has never been a problem for me when I am away, but then, the awayness has never been this permanent.
I think I will be ok and I guess this will help me appreciate them more.
Suddenly the north, with all it's crude ways and common accents has become like a close friend who i have to leave for a while.
Don't get me wrong, I love it living where I am at the moment, other than my family home and grandmas this is where I feel the most comfortable.
It is times like this though, when you realise the actual place you really feel is home. And that place for me is where my parents and sister and dog is.
And I know this is soppy and I probably won't repeat myself (maybe) but, actually I will miss them more than I can even imagine and I'm probably going to cry tons when I have to pack my stuff to come and live here for a year.
I know this post hasn't made much sEnse and isn't incredibly dEtailed but i just needed somewhere to spam this out and now I will probably have to cry myself to sleep and then move on with life

The Art of Collapsing
since I've had a 'differen-ish' kind of year so far, I've changed (slightly) or rather updated to a higher grade of Minnie, I've learned new things and gained some more interests. Therefore, I've decided to do a 'things about me' post, but a more updated 2011-ish version.
Ok, so here are a few fun facts about me that you may or may not know.
1. My favourite British artist of the year is 'Ellie Goulding' she's talented and amazing and you should go listen to her shizz!
In fact, to save time, here,
Listen, while you read :)
2. My view on what love is has moved into a different position. I now see love as an inner and sincere desire for someone else, other than yourself, to be truly happy and satisfied in life. I realise now that in the very near past, I mistook feelings to be love. Feelings are not love, but rather a physical reaction to what you perceive love to be. Therefore, if your perceptions are selfish and inaccurate then your feelings are also selfish and inaccurate. God help me to truly love the people I care about in a way that they deserve and not for my own gratification.
3. I wash my face with porridge.
4. I am an organ donor, so when I die, people will get my eyeballs and liver and shizz and I'm ok with that - though the reason why I signed up to be a donor was because I needed to find a legit reason to procrastinate from uni work...Yeahhhh, I'm kind of intense like that hahaha.
5. I've not had a job or real income for over a year now - it gets me down a lot recently.
6. I like eating frozen peas.
7. I've never drank alcohol in my entire life and I don't intend to change that.
8. I don't want to ever date, I want to marry a friend who already knows my good sides and my bad sides and my weird sides and who has decided they still want me forever anyway. And I want to be that friend for someone else too. And then together we will have hundreds of weirdly named children and repopulate the earth with unique and wonderful human beings (the last part is me kidding...sort of)
9. At least 3 or 4 of my best (most loved) friends live in different parts of Asia
10. I've decided to walk the route of not 'settling for less' in my life, because I've already tried that and discovered that 'settling for less' is just another way of failing and it totally kills. So, for example, when someone tells me to 'Just get a job! ANY job will do!' I'll say, 'Thankyou, but no - I'd rather go ahead and take up God's perfect plan for my life.'
I think that is enough lil facts about me for now. I'm shattered today. Last night I was just tossing and turning in bed with very little actual sleep. Its so disgusting when my mind decides to be over active when my body wants to rest. It's a mighty fight.
I was having really distressing fitful dreams too.
I guess this all roots from truth in my life, because the dreams I had were completely relevant.
Poo relevance! GO DIE!
I'd really just love to lock myself away in a room filled with books and just read all day and night.....the room could have a glass roof so I could see the stars and also a lil fridge and side room with a loo.
Looooveelllyyyyyy.
I'm going to go now
