Birthdays

Is it just me, or are there an awful lot of birthdays as the year comes to an end?


Some friends of mine had a scrapbook kind of thing in the the works for my friend Chooi-Ee, so I again attempted to watercolour.
It didn't turn out too well.




I kind of gave up at this stage since it was around 5 AM, and I actually completed the card on the bus to the BBQ we planned for her. I went over it with fine-liner, so it turned out OK I suppose.
I just don't have the patience for watercolours or paints...


Then a few days later, it was my friend Brandon's birthday, and Chooi-Ee put together a really awesome card for him ^__^
This was my contribution..




It was kind of short notice so I ended up starting at


AM.
I saw the sun rise.

It was so much more epic than that, but my camera sucks, blah blah.

As for the actual days themselves, they were really fun. It's nice to hang out with friends outside of school, hopefully we can go out more especially since I have no life.

I experimented with long exposure on my camera, since the light was. Non-existent. There is no light at 4am in the morning.


Haha, it was pretty fun. I'M A GHOST.
I can't wait till I get a proper camera.
it will be awesome.
Although, I was supposed to write my resume today...instead I got majorly distracted. I've downloaded so much new music recently, I've barely listened to any of it...
gotta get a job if I want that camera.

'til next time,

free, finally.

I finished my exams last Friday, hooray.
Ever since then I seem to have fallen into a lull, motivation seems to escape me. Instead of the proactive, self-motivated adult I imagined in my mind I've become a listless, tired hobo.
Part of this is due to the fact I actually didn't get into my desired course, Communication Design at RMIT. Turns out I did get the email from RMIT, a while ago, but it somehow ended up in my junk folder. Lucky I found it in time, or else I wouldn't have ever known at all; quite a horrifying thought.
Ever since I found out I've fallen back into my anti-social, semi-depressive ways...I've been intentionally avoiding all social media since I don't want to talk to anyone right now...
I'm sad.
Still, there's nothing I can do about it so I guess I just have to shrug it off. I'll be heading around to various universities this week to perhaps see what else I can do, especially if I end up needing to change my course preferences. Also I'll probably treat myself to a bit of retail therapy.


I had a somewhat therapeutic morning cleaning up my room, listening to Fleet Foxes. Very calming.
Guess what, there's still clay EVERYWHERE.
I draw in all my schoolbooks during class; here are some random snippets.




I also drew in my diary a lot.




LOL. Me and Katrina drew a moogle head on our calculators during maths, we were that bored.
You can see all the equations in the top left, I placed them all on top of each other.


I think that's it for now..




On Saturday my dad took my brother and I out for dinner to this Greek restaurant, Alatsi Salt.
It was OK. I ate more when I got home, since we ordered a seafood platter and I suck at eating seafood. Like, seriously. I just sat there and dipped bread into random dips. My dad's talking about taking us travelling for a few months next year. I hope it doesn't interfere with Uni. Not that I care very much at this point.


I think I could just eat tzatziki endlessly.


Going out to a Japanese restaurant with my Japanese class tonight! I'm pretty excited, I love Japanese food. Guess I should go get ready soon.
Till next time,
eddywards.
