Slept quite badly last nite. Guess I was more nervous about uni than I thought. The day started out pretty well though. Had time to sufficiently groom myself and water the plants. I think it was yesterday when I found the seedlings had started to spring out. I was worried about that since they were about 3 days late (according to the packet the seeds came in) and the medium drained water a little too well. So I put them in a plastic bag to trap the vapour (and to. Hey, it works.
Oh yea uni... I did manage to catch the bus and not get knocked over. The bus driver was nice. Everyone got out at the main campus and left me alone in the bus with him so I talked to him for awhile. Its lonely being the only 1st year architect. Then when I got there the door was locked. My card wont open it. At least someone who worked there was passing by. There was another guy there but he never introduced himself. Then we provided some support over the glass doors to the poor ppl who didnt make it. They eventually made it and now I know 2 of their names. Esthee and Rob. Esthee is nice. Too bad we're not in the same group.
At around 11:00 I had to go to Subiaco cos everyone was freaking out about art supplies. At least class didnt start until 2.00. Note to self, even though u are not a first year and know ur way around campus, never miss orientation. After I got back it was still 12. Decided to hav lunch and sketch at Uni. The class was empty and LuLu mistook me for doing work alone. Her group had to analyse a poem and make a collage. Oh yea some people mistook me for a second year. Must be the (false) sense of confidence. I found out that Rob does like manga as well.
When it was finally time for class I paired up with Kate, Catherine and was it Leslie? Well, we did say we'd forget everyone's names tomorrow. Studio really makes u feel insecure. Or its just me again. At least I dont completely suck but I felt like the worst in our group. We arent allowed to erase and we had to try to draw using the techniques that John our instructor told us to. He did pass me twice and commented that I draw nice eyes. Thanks to my obssession with anime. The second time he gave me some advice on this collection of stuff that we had to draw. He was very encouraging. This Thursday, we will be sketching models. Nudemodelsomg.

I'm bored...
...so I'll blog!
The time in my blog is off. Noticed that for awhile now but couldnt be bothered. Didnt think I'd be using this blog anyway. Its 12:48AM Saturday right now.
My dad went back home yesterday morning. Its just not the same without him. I sorta wished the rest of my family didnt have to move here because now he's home alone. Also because now I have to deal with them. Not that I do not like them being here. Sometimes I just wanna be alone to think and that's hard when they're around and they worry about me. I want to prove myself to them and I want to be independant and I want to make it on my own and even if I make mistakes I want to deal with it by myself and not have ppl admonish me. And (argh) by mom has been bitching about my weight and stuff. I really hate her comments. "Why is your bum so ugly?" (or something like that. I dont really care and I wish she didnt.) Today I brought my favourite handbag out with me again and she exclaimed in surprise,"You REALLY like that yucky bag, dont you?" (Try explaining sentimental value to her. Go on, I dare you to)
And on the topic of boys...I dont even want to go there on our conversations.
Anyway, before dad left he got me 2 potted plants:) I'm trying to start a miniature garden on the verandah. I'll put up the pictures sometime later. He also made me sign an agreement to look after my brothers. I dont really mind that but did he have to leave me here with mom. At least I am not accountable for her. It irritates me sometimes but she's a really dominating person. She wants to make decisions on everyones behalf and even if we dissagree and present valid arguments she'll try to force her reasoning on us.
For example...
She wants to buy a HOUSE. We already have an APARTMENT.
Why?
1. She has to bring my brothers to school every morning and she hates the amount of time it takes. (she wants somewhere close by)
2. She has to carry shopping bags up to our room when the lift is not working (which is often) We live on the 4th floor...
3. Almost everyone is selling off now that the price of the rooms are going up.
4. Neighbour problems.There was a pipe burst in the next door unit which flooded 2 of our rooms which no one took responsibility for. This is going to be a minor claims case. And someone broke into the penthouse. (But these 2 points was b4 she decided she wanted a house)
5. Its noisy. She can hear the streetnoises. It doesnt bother anyone else. (Its mostly in the morning but she gets annoyed just hearing cars on the road)
Ok, my reasoning why we dont need a house.
1. We love this place. (Sentimental value. Please someone help her understand. She honestly thinks we're stupid for not trying to get a better deal. The value of the property went up)
2. We spent money buying it and the furniture.
3. We'd have to take money out of this account to pay for the house which generates enough interest to pay for our studies and stuff.
4. Ok, she's trying to get a place close to uni, I found that i can take a bus no problem from where I'm staying but if we get that house, it'd be closer alright but I'd have to walk very far.
5. I've seen the house she wants to buy. If I'd have to describe it in a single word, 'decrepit'. And also, 'compact'. There's one bathroom. The rooms are smaller than the apartments. She wants to know if she can fit 2 beds in one room. (The living room, maybe)
Well, those are my reasons. Maybe I'm just being childish and stuborn again. But then again I cant agree when things arent well thought out.
Someone who didnt know me the other day didnt believe I was 20. She said I acted like a (did she say f___king?) 14 year old. Ok, so I said sorry, I act 14? I just find it irritating when ppl ask me questions and dont believe the answers. Then she threatened me. "Watch who u are f___king with. U're messing wif the wrong bit_h" RIGHT. And she didnt believe I was 20. I should've asked her if she had a Y chromosome. Instead i just laughed. Dont worry, Kevin knows her. I am sure she was joking...
Oh yea and yesterday I made clay 'no-evil monkeys' and today I made a Kero from Card Captor Sakura eating cake.
Dear God I am thankful this blog is privatised.

Posting a picture
Look! Ladybugs. This picture is from Deviantart by rudib. I saved it because I thought it was cute. Its a party! According to the artist, the ladies get dumped by a plane over crops to help farmers with pests and once they accidentally dropped them near a town. I'm guessing this picture was taken near a jetty. The title for this picture is Luck On A Stick.
