There's really no excuse other than laziness for having neglected my blog. I guess it's called 'The Impulsive Diairies' for a reason, hurhur. I was fiddling with my Sony Nex 7 camera today which I  had received as a gift for finishing the HSC last year, and just spontaneously decided that I'll start blogging again.

I have learnt a whole lot about myself since I stepped into University, and here's a list:

• I thought reading books was a hobby of mine. Laters, I haven't read a book since the HSC.
• I can't spell properly anymore... I think the above point explains why, haha!
• I don't like to save, no that's understatement, I cannot save.
• I don't really stick to schedules, I usually yolo everything these days. 
• I really like pink.
• I will always swear by tea and will never become a coffee person.
• I love the sun, and weather really determines my mood. 
• I can sit for long periods doing absolutely nothing enjoyable, just to get out of studying.
• I check out girls an insane amount; I hope this is normal...
• I love, love, love exploring restaurants and dessert places, having developed a sweet tooth.

Looking back at this blog, I really wished I had regularly updated it since I finished the HSC. I feel like I have just lost a chunk of life, if you know what I mean. Anywho, I've started again and hopefully this time, I'll be more devoted.

Today I went shopping with my family and Auntie Phuong at Birkenhead Point for 9 hours. We deserve the label 'shopaholic', do we not? I saw such pretty houses and many joggers on the tracks lining Iron Cove as we drove to Birkenhead Point. City people have such dreamy, perfect lives. I dream of living in the City one day, but it's probably not going to happen because there is something called STINKING REALITY. I hate reality. 

It was not a wise choice to have worn my teal loafers for the first time to shop, because they started biting into the heels of my feet and made me bleed. I knew I should have stuck some band-aids on before going. The sales were great and I think that was why we spent so long bargain hunting. I bought a few things from Forever New which I thought were really cute. I've looked on the Forever New website, and most of the items I bought are on sale there too for anyone who is interested. I also bought some gloves and a neapolitan-icecream coloured scarf but I think I might save them for an outfit post.

Do you like the red Superga shoes? I am loving them so much! I found those at the David Jones Warehouse - one lone pair just sitting on a disordered shelf of women shoes and half-priced too! I think it was destiny that I found those red shoes; they were awaiting their loving owner, hehe. I know I am weird, you do not need to think this, lol. Apparently, they were the fashion  in the 1980s. I was going to save up for a pair of red Vans but after finding these, I don't think I want the Vans anymore.

After the long shopping spree, we dined out at Pho An at Bankstown and I am not bragging, but I think my mum cooks better. If I could invite you all over to prove it, I would.

Dad says I must balance fun and study these holidays so because I've had a day worth of fun, I must delve into the realm of miserable study. Goodbye for now my lovely readers.

Shoe Love, True Love

 Firstly, Happy Easter Season! All I did was eat chocolate...I hope you spent Easter in a better manner.

After several months of mundane HSC life, I was finally in the presence of shops and indeed, I went berserk. I went to D.F.O at Homebush and whenever I go there, it's all about buying shoes or stocking up on bras and underwear. I was looking for a pair of loafers because a friend of mine (Vanessa Ngo Thanh) recently bought black loafers from Rubi and they look so cute with everything. It was just my luck that I found a perfect pair at 'Wanted Shoes', reduced from $80 to $40, and in my favourite colour! GO ME. Mum thought they looked like granny shoes, but she bought them for me anyway, love you Mumma.

I never wear heeled shoes because for one, I never thought my parents liked me being too dressy and two, I don't go out to nice places that require a dress up very often. My first pair of heeled shoes were my Year 10 Formal shoes, the sequin ones that are absolutely gorgeous. Now that I think about it, they weren't really suited for Formal, but whatever, I've worn them after the Formal to parties because they're extremely versatile.

Anyway, Mum suggested that I buy some heels to wear with dresses, having realised that I'm never in a dress these days. And so I did. For a start, I thought keeping to the basic black and nude was a good choice. I am so in love with the black velvet wedges - A friend of mine has a pair like those too and she loves them and I now understand why.

I can't wait to dress up and go to a nice place with good scenery to take some photos now - that being the road trip which I had mentioned earlier which has been postponed to next week. Apparently, we're going to 'Zen Oasis'. Google it. The scenery is beautiful there. I'm also going Parramatta Westfield on Monday I think, which means more shopping, yay!

Snacking on dragon fruit

Hello my dear readers! It has been months since my last blog and I am sorry for that. I have the HSC on my back and whenever I take time out of study for leisure purposes, guilt trips me over. Please don't think I study all the time, because I don't. I'm just an extremely slow worker which means I spend twice as long as other students would to complete homework and notes. Might I add procrastination to the list - Facebook and Youtube wishes me to fail my HSC.

Let me start off by shouting out, "I FEEL SO GOOD NOW THAT EXAMS ARE OVER." I think we all know how torturing exam weeks can be, but to be honest, the last three weeks came and went in a whiff for me. First I had the 'speech' English assessment, then 2U Maths and Agriculture, and the rest of them just ordered themselves one after the other and before I knew it, I was done with half-yearlies, go me!

I will be truthful to myself - I don't think I put in 100% effort. I always promise myself I will, but I never do. "Next exam, I'll try even harder because I didn't do so great this time round." Nah ah, never going to happen, sorry self. But it's okay, because I don't think I felt stressed...I stayed way too calm during those exams, which I guess is a good thing. I can only perform to my ability, not to others', and whatever I get, I get, right?

Anyway, after exams my room was a mess. I don't know how it happened, it just did. I had to sort all the past papers and notes into folders and throw away whatever was scrap. It took three long hours, but my room is now back to its original state. I have OCD and am proud of it. I also had to clean up my wardrobe because it too, was getting rather messy and only after cleaning it up, did I realise how boyish I dress these days. I have 1 skirt. 1 SKIRT. The rest of my bottoms are shorts and jeans. I have T-shirts and polos for tops and too many jackets and hoodies. I think I might need a new wardrobe before University... I really do like fashion, but can't afford it yet. Pretty shoes and fancy handbags will have to wait till I grow up.

My holidays officially commence today so I will blog more during the holidays hopefully. Dad told me my family is going for a road trip on the weekends, so I'm looking forward to that. Till then, bye!

40 hour shopping

Sitting impatiently in the car as we drove to the mall

Muffin Man!

I like those little figurines too

Mimi's Christmas present from my mum from Build a Bear

At the Food Court eating fast food...

I bought a gorgeous pair of green, silky shorts from Bardot

Guess who was at Parramatta!

That's right, Reece Mastin

Corelli Sandals

The Bardot shorts

Amongst the thousand of heads at Parramatta Westfields was mine as I was shoved, pushed and squashed whilst trying to shop in the mall. I shopped with my mum, sister, aunties and cousins from 12:00 to 10:00pm so it wasn't surprising that I couldn't feel the souls of my feet at the end of the night. I bought cute sandals for summer and a pair of green, silky shorts from Bardot which I can't wait to wear next Monday when my family will be dining out.

It was such a shame that I couldn't even see the celebrity's face, yet he was so close to me. :( Thanks to my sister's 16x optical zoom, we managed to see his face through a photo...Even taking the photos were troublesome! My sister had to go up and down the escalators to be able to get a good angle of Reece Mastin's face.

'Flamingo' Wallet

It's rather spacious hey?

Mum bought me this Oroton wallet and I'm just loving its 'Flamingo' colour! It's sparkly, but the sparkles don't seem to show up in photos...It's rather big for a person like me too. I only have a few cards other than my school ID, train pass and library card, but my pink phone fits into it perfectly. I LOVE IT, THANKS MUM! I think I'll make this wallet my 'going out' wallet, it's too precious to be thrown into my school bag. School starts tomorrow, and tomorrow marks a significant turning point of my life, the beginning of the HSC battle. Bring it B.O.S, lets see how torturing you can be.
