English vs Engrish

Very productive night i must say. Had dinner with the housemate, watched a couple of episodes of this new i-don't-know-what-its-called series, and started cleaning the house!! I started late, but better than never :) Changed my sheets, vaccumed, washed the toilet, cleaned the laundry+kitchen. Damn bangga woiiii

These holidays haven't exactly been happening, but somehow it's just what i need. Neverending sleeps and no uni to attend. Bad side= i'm prolly gaining weight by the second and any extra hour that i sleep i prolly become blobber than i already am.

I have also however been healthy eating aka less carbs (almost none wow), alot of veggies (salads and stir frys) and less sugar cept for the occasional treat here and there. Still, lazy as fuck to get out and actually exercise, whether it's just a jog or a walk, but i'll get there. I found nice coffee shops behind my house with awesome ambience, sorta like Terrazza Nedlands but on a smaller scale, so i shall make it a point to maybe job/walk there everyday to get coffee/hot choc/muffins (shit no carbs)/whatever they hv on the menu.

I NEED A BUDDY. LIKE A HEALTHY EATING COME LETS MOTIVATE EACH OTHER BUDDY. LIKE A COME LETS GO AND EXERCISE YOU FAT BLOB BUDDY. Ohh it'll be rather handy if this buddy could help motivate me with i-lecting and assignments too hahaha. Too much to ask for perhaps?? Any takers?!

I have one assignment due Monday and an oral on Tuesday. No i have not started fuckoff thanks.

My face is now a pimple warzone and methinks its the late nights (shit its 2.01am so much for sleeping early) and dno what else. Literally warzone as in 2 on left cheek, one on right cheek (laugh now) and one on forehead (laugh again). It's the most i've gotten at one time!!!!

+++

So i'll prolly try and sleep watching GGS2 again or something but before i leaveeeee..

I got an email today from Doreen, and it's prolly an old one but i decided it's so true that it's blog worthy :) Enjoy and gooodnighttttttttt. Btw serious about finding buddys!!!
