Woo hoo!!! Pre-Alpha!!!
I bolosed... again... I know.. its not good... already 3 or 4 times now for percakapan... so no more! no more!! I gotta be rajin... n I gotta get back into studying again!! But all I can think about is my friends, and I just wanna have fun.. I keep thinking "just two months left.... just two months left" ... so if there is a choice between study and having fun.. i'll choose fun every time. in the beginning it wasn't like that tho, but now I look back at the photos, see the fun that they had, and I wasn't there, and wished I was.
Anyways.. yesterday I bolosed... went for my Ice Skating lesson at 10 (sorry rad, no photos, its a bit hard when I go on my own, I'm not talented enough to take a self portrait while skating) my coach was late, so i had a chance to warm up. It was exam day. but first we had a normal lesson. I learned backwards stroking, backwards cross over, and some other thing i forgot the name of, you glide on one foot in an arc, then you gotta spin 180 degrees so you're still following the arc, but backwards. Its a lot of fun, but the longer I take lessons, the more complicated each action gets, which also means I've started to fall on the ice. Even tho its getting more complex, it still doesn't seem to be that hard, I mean, I still cant do it properly, but if you practice everyday it wouldn't take that long to get pretty good. There are a few people at the rink who have only been skating for one year, and they're already winning East asia skating competitions!!
Well.. my ujian... there were only a few moves that I had to do... all really basic stuff
Pre-Alpha test includes:
~Two foot glide
~One foot glide (right/left)
~Forward swizzle
~Backward swizzle
~Backward wiggle
I scored between 75 and 80% for all of them. which means the first level complete! just another five to go... "just" .. haha. after that I can take a freestyle class! =) haha... but yeah, to do skating in Australia you need to have completed the 5 levels first, so if i can get them done here, or at least some of them, it will make it a bit cheaper in oz... i really wanna continue with this! its so much fun.
After Ice skating I met up with Mita and Ratih, we were gonna play NX2 (like DDR) but went to have lunch at KFC first, then Ratih had an ujian. so Mita and me went back the NX2 place n there were people on it already, so we waited n talked for a while, then went out side n talked some more... came back, they were STILL playing (more than an hour) we waited patiently again.. then they went to buy more coins, so we got on, put in 2 coins, and started playing. when they came back they put their coins in while we were playing. so we couldn't play again... talk about menyebalkan! not to mention rude! ... I didn't want to play there anymore.. haha.. so we went to gale to play the one there.. haha
After that we MTT-ed (muter-muter tanpa tujuan) three times around a round about until we were laughed at by people on the side of the road. then it was time for juice! mix n match hehe.. maaf dama... I really stole your girl yesterday. then I dropped her home, but stayed long enough to ngenet n eat nasi goreng =) hehe. then on the way home i bought a heap of junk food n rented some movies. I made it through a whole day without Vando!! =) I didn't think that was possible.
Had heaps of fun yesterday! MTT lagi YUUUUKKSSS!!

Randomness
There has been so much stuff happening again.. and I haven't been blogging about it.. I just cant be bothered to be honest.. Its too much of a task, and it doesn't really get read... so i have no motivation..
Dama left on tuesday, I was sad to see her go, but not too sad, cause I know I'll see her again in January when she is back. As a going away gift (among other things) we got her a hammer in the shape of a strawberry, that when used makes a "boing" sound.. haha... kinda random.. i know.
This is a lame entry... I just have no motivation at the moment... its 11pm and I have class at 7am.. fun!
Both Rocky and Vando bought laptops this week.. Vando has been waiting since first semester to get a laptop, he's now in his third year of uni! But he's finally got it!!! Jadi sekarang ga usah pake laptop heru untuk nonton... I mean, ngerjain tugas... haha .. .maaf ya Vando..
I've taken up ice skating lessons.. its a bit expensive, but really fun! I've only had two lessons, but this friday I already have a test! ... so I went skating yesterday for 5 hours to practice, and now my feet have blisters! and I had my first fall on the ice... not exactly fun, but I'm sure there are many more to come! haha.
mmm... what else??? ... I dont know.. Im sure there is something.. i just cant think of it..
well.. anyways.. hopefully I'll start updating more regularly... just two months left til I'm home!!

The ramblings of a crazy man
~I Smiled and it changed me~
Yesterday it was easy... I smiled
Just a smile, and everything was ok.
It started unconvincingly,
An insincere grin pasted on my face.
But it snuck its way in, deep inside...
I smiled and it changed me.
And just like that,
I thought I had found something,
Something great.
A way out, a way up,
A way to make everything ok again.
So I smiled... and it changed me.
I wanted to share it with everyone.
And so I did, it seemed to work.
I smiled and it changed me
And everything was ok
A little strange, but ok..
But it didn't last
I was wrong...
It wasn't real...
There was no miracle cure...
I wanted it to be, but it wasn't..
So there I was...
Smiling...
An insincere smile...
Hoping it would make everything ok...
Hoping it would change me...
But it didn't.
