(SOME) PICTURES

Because Gwen says a post isn't really a post without pictures. Although I hardly carry around my camera anymore, here is pictorial evidence that I'm alive and not a Japanese cyborg out to use my blog to take over your minds.

TAT:

A figure-of eight knot. Idea was inspired by friendship bands that we once got on whim and then all lost within a week. A knot, because these are the ties that bind, that hold me together. A figure-eight knot because it's used as at the end of ropes as a stopper and the people who I dedicate this to keep me from falling out. The ends are frayed to remember the people who i loved and lost and serves as a reminder that all things will pass.

SCH:

Got accepted to SIM Bachelor of Business (Marketing) course by RMIT. School starts August 4th. I worry about making new friends.

PPL&PLACES:

A LONG TIME AGO NOW

A large "hello" to all who still read this very inactive page.
I'm sure my readership stats is hovering around the single digit region.

"Why the absence?" you might query.

"Is your life terribly dull?" you might inquire.

"WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?" you might ask.

So, I shall apologise for my absence. Most of my recent days have been spent catching up on the sleep debt that amounted in the weeks before the Saturday before last. For awhile, Holland was forever crowded with throngs of different groups descending on me. And I went to a keylong in Malaysia as well. And got bitten (over 40 times) by sandflies. And, and, and... and stuff happened, and I was happy. As for now... less throngs, more chilling and, and, and... I'm ready to be internet active again. Oh and I am happy now as well.

So that's about it. If yr interested in photos of recent(ish) events, check facebook. adri.virtualinsanity@gmail.com.
Mind you I'm not very active there either.

XOXOXOXOXO
ADRI (who is currently hooked to The Big Bang Theory. )

&

because my Melbourne friends are so fucking awesome, I'm going to dedicate this so far self-absorbed post to them.

REHAN: Adrienne right. LOL. Thanks for the best drawn Alice in Wonderland cover EVAR. I suspect you copied it from the original cos you can't possibly be that talented. And btw, save me some brownies ;)

SOPHIA
: You're right. Your presents own the rest. Nothing even comes close. Not even the LIAMOND. XOXOXOXO (I hope the moths all die. Outside your apartment of course.)

KENNETH: Okaaaaaaay, maybe you diiiid contribute. :/ heh, but no, I seriously love you. Thanks for all your love and support and scolding and judgey-ness. I feel you ma homie. And making fun of Thomas isn't as fun when you're not around. ;)

SAMANTHA LRM: Hello love of mine. I can't describe how my heart is filled to the brimeth with loveth... or something. Your presents have officially surpassed all my expectations. I think you're my sunshine la.

HEART IN A CAGE

FREAKS OF HOLLAND

FREAK ONE-
CODENAME: BFF

Not so much a freak, as an irritant. She's everyone else's BFF cos she sure isn't *chope* yours. She goes around asking people if they're straight. And if you happen to be unsure, then its ggnore. I've met guys who like anyone with a cheeb, but she takes this to a whole new level. When we see her, we disappear into our individual shops and suddenly stock holds intense fascination. Plus she wears purple tanks with white shorts and silver sparkly spangly belts. WHUUUT?

FREAK TWO-
CODENAME: BIG GH3Y MAN

His opinions and coughing smokers laugh can often be heard booming from the vicinity of the hawker centre. Not only does he make crazy inappropriate remarks about angmoh fathers, sons in hand and all ("FILF! FILF! God, look at that ass. He's going to make my eyes roll back sooner or later"), he also texts people he's just met frankly nauseating statements and questions like "When was the last time you cum" and "Have you got a good hot source of protein for me". Now, I don't know about you but that is a freak to me.

FREAK THREE-
CODENAME: CANDY

Candy is a true blue freak, through and through. S/he makes all freaks before this, seem like non-entities. Or non-freaks, whichever is better. When s/he started prowling Holland, we were quite curious frankly of which gender s/he identified with. My ingenious plan backfired when we asked him whether he served NS and he replied in the positive -insert cheer for all holland folk- and he then proceeded to bore us for half an hour about "the best 2 years" of his life as a clerk.

On one rare occasion when I was completely by myself manning the shop and was crazy tired from the night before he interrupted my reverie by doing me "a favour" by sitting down and killing me slowly with his ramblings (I swear you've never met a rambler till you've met him). In that one hour, he told me about his washing machine, haagen daz ice cream cakes, a comic book character called Birdman, how everyone hates him, how his bosses always fire him, how his mother cut off his internet, how his family disrespects him, how his 19 year old sister is hopeless because she comes home after 12am and how it's "no point" talking to her. At the topic of his sister, I got increasingly agitated because I got tired of his self-pity. I told him off rather nastily by saying that if he refused to try to get educated (he's 25 with N levels) and that if he kept saying it was "no point" to go find some work cos he would only get fired and it was "no point" standing up to his younger sister then he was better off not living at all.

As testament to his freakishness, I was actually glad when BFF interrupted our tet-a-tet.


Here are the very few photos I took of the very few outings I bothered to take my camera out for. Pleasepleaseplease don't msn/meet/text me and complain abt the number of photos. Next week I promise a big picture intensive post of all my birthday celebrations. :))

Come down to Holland hawker on tuesday for charades and beer, on me.

That's as big a party I'm willing to throw.

28TH, RANDOM OFF DAY:


Mewbs came to get me


we had lunch and bought inline skates


and met ah neh at Vivo.


Later we met Rah


and Wendy for dinner at Marina.
-the end-

29TH, RANDOM NOT OFF DAY:


Bus stop on the way to work


Charades and Ban Luck with Ron, Bael, Phil, Akash.

2ND, CASH FAMILY KARAOKE:

Ho Pang di!

Ronald, Akash, Bernard


Look at Baelson's face (Ext. Left) and you'll see how much fun $10 can get you. And that's including the beer.

I would upload the video of them singing (very happily) Roses Are Red, but its taking forever to upload to youtube. Boo.

Breakup blows like a bitch (a bit). This sinking ship I clutch at.

CHARADES

Charades is my new favoritest game in the world.

The two hardest ones that we've got so far are "Basic Instinct" and "Cruel Intentions"

Although they stumped me on friday with "Alvin and the Chipmunks". My team guessed rabbit, gerbil, guinea pig, hamster, squirrel... oh so close.

But you can give the opposing team really long difficult names if you want to be hated forever. Like "The curious incident of the dog in the night time"

Or you can just laugh at how stupid the person guessing sounds like, and the person acting looks like.

The best guesses so far are:

For the word "small", "MIDGET! ermERM... SPERM!"

For the word "fork", "knife, knife, knife, KNIFE! knife? "

For the word "star wars", "Star! wall? cement? star... plank? wall? WHAT??"

For the word "clothes", "Bra! Lingerie! SEX! HARDCORE SEX?!"


16TH, ALOY AND RAH:




Drinks at Tango's


Poolside talks and supper with Rah&Co
