How Black can a Black Bean Get?

2009-06-10T10:11:00.004+09:30

A very old Chinese saying about being unlucky.

It all started yesterday. . .

I went to West Lakes to buy headphones cause the one I had died.

When I got on the bus to go to Centerlink, I opened the packaging and the ear clip broke!

When I finished going to Centerlink and went to town for my Customer Contact class; my USB was corrupted! So the lecture fixed by transfering the whole assignment to the USB and losing all my existing work and had to start all over again.

After class; I decided to go back to West Lakes and get my headphones exhanged but I caught the wrong bus!

Therefore I ended up calling my sister for help; a few minutes later my phone died!

At the end I got home safely; if not I would not be sitting here typing all this!

Happy Sad Cuts

2009-06-01T16:13:00.009+09:30

Everyone is happy because it's nearly Granny 90th this sunday. But why am I sad? Well the thing is that I was not sure if I should get a hair cut or not. At the end I decided to. I wanted to fix my Asian Mullet; but Aunty Do said if the top is short and the bottom part is long it would look funny; so she cut the bottom part short! Arghh; it defeated the purpose of me fixing my Asian Mullet; so I guess I now have to grow it out; HAIR CUT GONE WRONG; and No, I will not post the picture up because it looks hidious right now; proberly a few months later when it grows out!

恋空 / Koizora / Sky of Love

'Mika is like the Sky while I'm like the River'

Quoted by Sakurai Hiroki, Episode 1

Koizora first started as an Cellphone novel to a Movie to a Drama Series and now, a Manga.

I've always wanted to watch it for along time, but I rather watch comedy romance then drama romance. All of a sudden I started to watch the Drama; it was only 6 episodes and its about an hour long. So I gave it a try. I was hooked on to it after 15mins!

Although it was only 6 episodes it pretty much covered everything. After being such a crybaby when it finished; I gave the Movie a try, yet it was so different; the storyline followed the Manga and the Cellphone novel. So it was not grabbing my attention as much and I only watched half of it.

Bump Bump Bump

2009-05-05T22:40:00.004+09:30

These past week has been a very bump ride!

Last friday the girls took me clubbing for the first time; its true. I have never stepped into a pub or club etc. Yes, it was pretty fun; being with the girls was but walking up and down the streets in killer heel and intoxicated? THAT WAS NOT!

There is a little story about what happened that night on FB:

‘It’s my first time, please go easy on me’ I said to my girls and they looked at me in shocked. I really did not know how to explain. They have all done it before since the beginning; but I was too scared to even think about let along experience it myself.We grabbed a bite to eat, talked and laughed. When it was nearly time; they all rushed to get ready, to look perfect for the night. I stood there all alone and did not say a word. It was very hard to make conversation since I havent seen them in so long and doing it with them for the first time.The time came; we divided up into two cars; I rode with the Henley Girls. We detoured to Maccas and asked the workers for a band-aid; the cash handling girl refused to give us one; therefore we went to the next window and the gentlemen was kindly enough to give us some. Before we were able to retrieve them; we drove off all of a sudden as we all laughed with tears coming out.By the time we got to our destination it was nearly 9:30 or so. We all needed park the car and go to the washrooms; lucky enough we had the key to enter the hair and beauty salon. Once we were all ready; we all strutted out heels down the street laughing and talking until we met a cute young man asking if we wanted to have some fun and try it out; I was unsure but the others went down therefore I did too. It was so hard since it was so dark; but light started to flash and I could see a bit better. I could feel the vibration and we all rocked up and down. I asked them ‘let’s take some pictures with it’ and agreed. Camera lights started to flash everywhere.Later on, another man comes up to us and asked if we wanted to do it over the other side and we all said yes to it. We were all over each other when the lights start to appear and the vibrations got louder and louder with laughing, shouting and more groping. We got bored and decided to pack it up; the cute young man nicely nicely invited us to come next time and the girls agreed. (?) Walking down the terrace we were at the next destinaton; the room was filled with so many people and it was so hard to make any moves without getting jabbed once or twice. Liquid was spilling everywere as we all absorbed into the heat of the moment. As the tempreture rose we were off and ready to do it again. We walked in our killer heels up the steep street and went into another one again; tubes for everyone; but I didn’t have once because I cant process it that well and I wanted to be there with them and it didn’t even destroy the moment. Smoke spread the room and more lights flashing as we all slowly moved together going with the beat. Once the fun always ends with started looking for another place to do it and we all moved on again. This time down to bright red lights; but I had to destory the moment and left my lovely ladies. It was my first time and it hurt so much; but I love it; the lights; the vibrations; the smoke; and the girls.

Then on Sunday; the nursing home called around 6:30am that Grandma stopped breathing! We were all rushing to get there and I was still half in my PJs. After we waited for awhile; it was best for Grandma to go to the hospital and the closest one was Flinders Medical. Aunty Du, Cousin Fong and Sis went to the hospital while Dad, Cousin Ju and I went home.

Around 2-3pm or so there was a fire! Mum and I were making Garlic Chive Cakes when it happened. It was next next door! So it was Aunty Du next door neighbour. Apparently the guy put coal in the bin and it melted the bin and the dry shrubs caught on fire. So we had to fight out the fire while we are notifying the dude inside the house th

at his bin is on fire! *GEEZ*

Later the night we all went to visit Grandma and the doctors told us that she has a Urinal Tract Infection and a Chest infection. So she is Intensive Critical Care Unit. Just hoping Grandma will be ok cause she will be 90 soon on the 7th of June.

~ Grandpa please watch over Grandma and keep her safe ~

Well in Australia now, Bakers Delight is recruting 500 Bakers Apprentices for its accredited Apprenticeship.

Therefore, I went for it; since I like bread and I have not found a job yet.

A few weeks later after I applied, I got a phone call just to comfirm my details and why I wanted the apprenticeship.

Then I recived an email saying:

Dear Bakers Delight,

Im sorry for bothering you; however, it has been almost 2 months since I have had any contact about the Bakers Delight Apprenticeship. I would like to know as soon as possible if I am a suitable applicant for the apprenticeship due to the fact that I am still a job seeker as required by Centerlink to search for 10 jobs a week for the next 6months. As well as the application for TAFE SA SEMESTER 2 will be opening this month on the 20th. I honestly do want the bakers apprenticeship. Please notify me as soon as possible so I can plan my future path.

Kind Regards, yakO

The next day;

Dear yakO
Thank you for your email and I apologise for any distress or anxiety caused by our delay with this process.
There are currently no vacancies in SA bakeries.
At this stage, I would recommend that you print out copies of your resume and go visit as many bakeries (you prefer to work for) as possible. Speak to the Manager on duty and explain to him / her why you are keen on joining the apprenticeship program.
Some bakeries may look into hiring more apprentices after Easter or during mid-year, and that is why I have suggested visiting as many local bakeries so that they keep you in mind for future opportunities.
Best of luck!
Kind regards, TJ Wong

What the fuck? Does it really take 2 months so reply, I'm sorry there are no places for you?

In that email he sent feel like he is telling me to 'beg other bakeries and tell them that I really want the apprenticeship very badly'.

Overall its bloody rude for not notifying me first that there are no places available!

Boycott Bakers Delight!!!!!!!!!

鬥牛。要不要?

2009-03-30T23:42:00.013+10:30

That is right; one of the most popular drama in Taiwan and all of Asia.

Staring Hebe Tian and the heart throb Mike He!

The series was alright; not enough basketball though but too much romance in the storyline.

Other then that, I really love the clothing and prop used in the series.

Like Yi Sheng Xue 'Hebe' first and Give me 5min date!

* Yi Sheng Xue 'First Date' *

The ORIGINAL ONE is all beaded with a black flower or bow.

The I found is half beaded and half lace, then I went through the 'cheap everything a $1 basket' and found a flower to go with it which was as total of $19

Plus there was a similar one at DIVA with a detatchable flower for $32 either in white or black;; other then that it was way to expensive!

Now here is my final product!

* Yi Sheng Xue 'Give me 5min' Date *

The ORIGNAL ONE is white glossy paintant with one strap.

The one I have has two straps; from Monkfish which was RPP $60 in black; white; red and grey; at first the red and black was on sale for $50, but I needed the white ones! To my luck it was on sale 2 weeks later it was for $40!

Plus I found the REAL REPLICA on ebay from LEM STUDIO going at $60 + shipping and handling which I am not sure how much it really is.

But it is better then nothing

Here it is!

*TO BE UPDATED ONCE WHOLE OUTFIT IS COMPLETED*

Enjoy la ~

Deep Cuts

2009-03-24T23:10:00.008+10:30

Oh yes, I am back! 2 weeks ago was very bumpy for me, my boyfriend of nearly 2 years wanted to end the relationship and I tried to ask if there was a chance to save it; but he said no, so I agreed with him. You can not hold onto something that is not there.
.
Other then that, the next day, I joined the gym at the Adelaide Aquatic Center, full membership that includes the gym facilities, pools, spa, sauna and steam room! I had a health care card so it was only $607, if not I would be paying at least $800 to $900 for it, lucky me!
.
Plus I had a hair cut too; it was done by my lovely aunty! *love her to bits*
.

After the Hair was Cut:

Totally way off with the length, but I still like it! Plus I got some Gatsby Air Rise to puff it up! No, if your asking, I do not have make up on; my eyelashes are naturally dark.

Hip - Hip - Horayy!

This would be filled with random rants of my bad day or useless things I've brought with my sisters money and racking up a massive debt! Muahahaha!

Now I, yakO, at the time of 1:33am on the 23rd of March 2009, I officially opened 'yakO's wonderful world blog'
