So Please Don't Stay In Touch

Last Thursday was the last day of classes this year!! I can't quite believe how quickly time has passed. I forgot that I don't have to wake up for class tomorrow morning! Sweeeeettt. All of my assignment for this year are done except for one which I am going to finish up soon. And by finish up, I mean start, of course. Don't be acting all surprised. Y'all know the drill by now.

So last Friday, I did a cover of Dream a Little Dream and you can check that out here if you want it in another window. Or you can just click play below.



In other news, I bought myself an iPhone 5 about a week ago. I've always been a big fan of buttons on a mobile phone but my Blackberry was driving me crazy with the constant memory wipes and inability to take a phone call without cuts in the line. So I kinda gave in. Honestly, I kinda love it. I don't want to sound like I'm freaking out but I CAN PLAY BEJEWELED BLITZ WHENEVER I WANT.

Please don't judge me.

hahaha i'm kidding. judge me all you want.

With an iPhone, comes an Instagram account. I go by @arghsteffi on there so you can follow me if you're into that. Fair warning though, I don't post a lot of pictures and currently they all include Chewie in them. Soooo puppy photos, basically.

BUMP WORKS WITH COMPUTERS. I love this.






Ooh! Another thing that I've been doing is watching Doctor Who. I finished 1 season in a day and now i want more. I didn't really know where to start so I just started with the Eleventh Doctor. MORE SOON I HOPE. I must be going now. Bed so I can work on this assignment tomorrow and finish it up.  BOUI!

say hello

I recently rediscovered something i used to do on my old blogs. :D YEAHYUHH

Some Things Need Left Alone

Semester break has come and gone and uni started up again yesterday. This semester's break started later (week 9) than it usually does (week 7) and it got me really cranky by the end of week 9. I had completely lost my optimism for second semester. All my imaginary rainbows and sunshine were gone by then. So, I had 10 days to recover and rest up and say I would work on my assignments etc. I wasn't as productive as I had hoped.

The first weekend, I went down to Movie World with Tim, Karen, Eric and Sherwynna. Tim was visiting for the week so of course we went and screamed and filled ourselves up with enough soft drinks anybody should have in a year and sat on all the best rides after eating copious amounts of food and trying our best not to throw up after riding UPSIDE DOWN ON THE FRIGGIN GREEN LANTERN. It was a gorgeous day. 晴れですね!It really was a really good day. So good. :D

These photos are from Sherwynna's Facebook page :)



The next day, Amanda & I went about and visited a couple of thrift stores and explored Brisbane a bit more, but didn't pick up anything interesting. Our day was cut short due to storm warnings sadly. I wish it had stormed though. It would've been a good naptime. 


The rest of the week was a blur of lying on the couch watching various things, eating, attempting to make videos, tumbling and not doing any uni work at all. It was pretty wonderful. I regret nothing. Since there are no photos of me being a couch potato, here are some pictures of Chewie.










Riverfire is something we have in Brisbane every year to celebrate the Brisbane River. Basically, it's fireworks and aerial displays. The city and Southbank get pretty crazy on that day and this year, I had to work at a nearby Subway. It was crazy busy and people were rude and we were so unfamiliar with the new store and just <insert frustration here>. After work, we walked to Tommy's apartment in the city for his birthday gathering. Everybody was drinking and just talking most of the night. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I wasn't so tired.

I did manage to watch 4 movies in the cinema during my break though!
1. Total Recall
2. Looper
3. Beasts of the Southern Wild
4. Moonlight Kingdom

Though technically, that last one I saw earlier tonight. I still have not seen Ruby Sparks, which is very disappointing considering I've been looking forward to that for so long. :C Confession time! I'm only blogging because I have an assignment due Friday and I told myself I would finish it tonight. My procrastination is your gain, I guess!


OUT OF CONTEXT PHOTO OF MY ENGLISH PHONE BOOTH, TIMETURNER BOX AND EIFFEL TOWER.

I have to go work on my assignment now. Kbai.
