This is so lame. Posting like 5 minutes after my previous post?
I just stared at my clock till it turned from 11:59 to 12:00. Then I heard my neighbours cheer and now fireworks keep going in the distance (I can hear them not see them). Ah well, now that I've welcomed the new year listening to 方大同 I can go to sleep and hope to wake up with full hp.

a couple more minutes
I was going to write that 2010 was a pretty boring blah year but then I realised that it was rather eventful. Despite time passing so quickly, the beginning of the year somehow seems so distant in memory, longer than a year anyway. I'm not going to spend much longer reflecting on 2010 because it's now 11.40pm. I had a good dinner with the family. Good food and red wine that I actually liked wow. Anyway, alcohol really puts me to sleep. I have finally found my long sought-after cure to insomnia.
2011 has surreptitiously crept up on me. I swear, it seemed so far away and now it's grabbing me by the neck and trying to shake me back into reality. A lot of big change to handle but I'll write about that another time.
Isn't it unfortunate that I spent the last day of 2010 being a mute? And I'm probably going to spend the first day of 2011 mute too.

eighteen and up
Today I went out with a lobster, a semi-cooked whale, an oyster boy and my jaundiced boyfriend, always the recipe for amusement. My jaundiced boyfriend gave me the most marvelous mixtape ever you are awesome and amazing.
Acting Christmas elf for my family. Been spending most of my time at home wrapping presents. Urgh. Also had to help my mum buy presents, which was a bit of a headache. Still wrapping presents now. Gosh. Got many more to go.

in lieu
I spent a lot of today feeling thankful for the people around me still being around me.
Rapunzel with my dear foty. Good movie, great animation, fantastic soundtrack. I NEVER KNEW THAT ZACHARY LEVI COULD SING. But I guess if ke$ha can, anyone can. foty and I agree that there were some bits that would be a bit freaky for kids.
Narniaaaaa! Quite heart warming as usual but somehow missing the oomph of the previous movie. It was way eerie too though, especially with all the deatheater fog. If I was a kid I would probably have had nightmares for a week. foty and twin said that it was really different from the books. Kind of glad I haven't read them (not that I'd remember much even if I did). I loved Eustace's lines. So tart, so English. Found myself rolling my eyes at some of Aslan's lines, mainly because the references were totally unsubtle (and I'm so totally unreligious). Ben Barnes is still as good-looking as ever, possibly better.
I was wrapping christmas presents just now and I left the pricetags on 2 bloody hell. I realised (amazingly, thank goodness) and had to unwrap and rewrap them. It happened the other day as well with ALL the presents I wrapped -.- This is how you spell LOSER.
Speaking of Christmas gifts, my mum got me BOTH a coach wallet and bag for my birthday/christmas gift. Kind of shocked. She's becoming increasingly generous with her budget and it makes me feel quite shitty cos I spend a lot of her money on a regular basis anyway and I don't need her to buy me stuff like this :( I'd be happy even if she bought me cupcake tins or cookie sheets (which I would like too hoho). I told my mum that it was a rather large sum for a present and she said that altogether it's slightly more ex than my sister's christmas present and mine's birthday/christmas so it's okay. I suppose she was trying to be fair. urghurgh when I landed I actually told her I don't need a christmas present and the zara jacket could be my birthday present. I need to finish studying quickly and make lots of money and give my mum big birthday angpaos every year. After I get married (that's a total 'if') I will give her big cny angpaos too.
I need to relish these last 9 days I have of being 17 because I'll never be 17 again (no zefron reference intended). Youth is slipping away like a raging river.
