* More is Never Enough

Monday, May 29th, 2006

“Once upon a time there was Candy and Dan.
Everything was gold.
He was handsome and a very good criminal.”

I came home about an hr ago after some dinner & Candy

Candy is another one of those everything-goes-wrong-for-drug-addicts films
& it really reminded me of Little Fish
but

damn

this movie is intense.

it moves from
heaven
to
earth
to
hell

…all the stages of life / love?

but then again they were trippin on H
their emotions were all over the place
& their addiction was consuming them

It makes you think.

all the things you never see
& how we take for granted what’s really going on
behind faces you pass by everyday

…

why have my blogs been so serious lately?

omgawd.

after exams,
it’s time to do something.

& there’s bdays comin up too!
wooo

lol

you know,
pizza’s were never never never meant to be eaten with a knife & fork.
my sis learnt the hard way when her pizza slice flew off the table and landed behind me

well done ;)
I know ppl who love their footy
& are obsessed with their footy
but until tonight I’ve never seen anyone
scrunch their jumper up in a footy shape & mime kicking it
then stop & practise kicks every few metres while walking

That’s dedication.

maybe I should try to do that with soccer?

Played again today for another team
but the dirty bakers dozen lost
=(

Hmm

aight
think warm thoughts
& um maybe you don’t need that fix tonight..

* Fine

ladder theory at fs fest
( I really can’t explain the labcoats )

oh how cute is this:
http://www.designiskinky.net/coverathon/pascal/index_pascal.html

this is happenin round my sis & matt’s bday so doubt I can go:
http://www.semipermanent.com/sydney/index.html

but I wanna be there
anyone else wanna fork out 70-110?

anyway,
everything’s just fine
& smooth

& as nice as my coffee

mmm… one more reason to love winter

arr we’re all turning into ice now
we’re like popsicles

nah

I find that
people are like icebergs
we only see the tip of the iceberg above the water
& slowly discover the rest

except sometimes
there’s not much below the surface
cos the water’s a lot more shallow than you realised

funny aye =)

okay dunno where this is all coming from again
nobody thinks properly before exams!
life is put on hold.

Stuff with you
& you
& of course, you

will be sorted out afterwards.

I hope.

Today, we did the red shield appeal.
Wish I knew more languages so the french woman, spanish man & greek couple could actually understand what the hell I was asking them!
& even though I got scratched by a thorny rose bush,
I guess it was all worth it.

awww
I just found out that a friend got back with their ex

lurrve is in the aaaiiirrr

Tomorrow, I shall go & see Candy cos once again my sis won tix
wooo
drug-induced love!

don’t we all need some of that ;)

ahmagawd
this is on my xmas wishlist now

* Gossip Folk

Thursday, May 25th, 2006

mmm harry kewell reminds me of someone…
for someone else ;)


just got home & tonight is the last night I wear a skirt out
while waiting in the cold
for my hourrly bus!

it’s just not smart.

lol

now, i wish i’d joined a soccer team when I was lil
or at least learnt some soccer tips…
we got thrashed today in indoor soccer
by yr 11s

ohh the shame

haha

& there’s one more game tomorrow against more yr 11s
YEAAH BAABBY
(our team name)

well,
we had a surprise visit by elise today.
what can I say?
it’s good to catch up.

and yeah..
with everyone,
there’s been a lot going on lately.

I think we all need a breather.

or a good night out ;)
Hm
this whole blog concept really sucks sometimes
cos no matter how much of a personal keeping-track-of-life thang this is..
half of what I want to say is unspoken.

damn!

& what the hell
there should be no such thing as relationships this year
if you want a chance of getting that asian-parents-pleasing 99 point whatever!

but in the cases where it’s all good, steady & not distracting
…big UPS to them
=)

unless friends stop reading this,
no, I won’t shamelessly spill out hot goss here.
even if it would be funny to look back on later
but I will say,

boys like girls
and…

girls like cars & money
(good charlotte are such insightful philosophers, don’t you think?)

lol

or maybe

boys like girls
girls like boys
and one or the other is fooled

* Musik

Monday, May 22nd, 2006

lol thanks adrew ;)

okay so it seems like the dying aus urban/hip hop music industry is what people are tryna inject some life into lately

dave is producin for his bro joey & their first single, All I Need, which should be playin tonight on 2dayfm at around 9-915? if they couldve got onto 96.1 or 88.1 it would’ve been a bit more credible i guess, but if they wanna make the mooneey $$

…mainstream’s the way to go yea? ;)
it’s gettin more popular now aye
so who else is takin their passion for music further?

kai aka mc physics with natural causes is signed to nurcha records
performing gigs round syd
hoaian droppin hits in syd clubs - maaybe at equilibrium
& there’s yang!
and his LUCKY break
if he goes with it?

haha

daamn there’s so many aspiring artists now it’s not funny
like how do you find an edge anymore?

I find the whole marketing yourself business tedious
self-promotion, think about it…
look hot, act hot, convince them you’re hot, oh & sound hot
what happened to people likin the music, for the music?
& it applies to every style of music

fun =)

no wonder people bag out marketing to me whenever I mention I wanna join the business
lol

but if they have what it takes
& if the whole rich & famous dream is what they want
why not yea?
so many people just wanna make their mark
to just be remembered for something
anything
sounds like a drug
addictive & if you can’t handle it, you crash & burn

so, which pill to take?

hmm
& on a random note
wish people would make up their mind faster
don’t leave me hanging!

anna

edit:
someone smack some sense into me.
what was i thinking?
should’ve known better.

* Bright Lights

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

when you’re up onstage, the lights are so bright you can barely see the crowd
& you feel the rushhh

I love that feeling

what I remember:
- coming home at 130am & waking up at 630am …yay!
- early morn prac
- standup
(mm.. cornbread ?)
- fabio & friends
- a mad crowd
- tops thrown onstage
- PANTS thrown onstage
- a certain pantless & then topless person onstage
(he’s not even drunk !)
- more bands
- natural caaauses
- fuji collective, the neverending band
- coffee with a chubbalubba
- being the only person on the bus home. so scary.

black n blue or whoever they were won people’s choice
& the joker and his gun won the comp

fun fun

lots of things going on
so it’s hard to keep track
even here

studytime!

* Remember

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006

There was a crazy snapping swan in this pond in Austria

Seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?

wouldn’t it be great,
if we could erase some memories of our past
so that they would never exist?

sounds like…
bliss =)

&
a
curse

just like the guy who made Unknown White Male.
he’s someone who suddenly got amnesia while on a train one day
& lost 37 years of his life

but with people right
it’s sad.
cos it’s so much easier for us to try to forget anything ever happened
than to try to accept it
&
move
on

*sigh

we know all this
but most of the time
we
just
can’t
do
it.

I think brains need an OFF switch sometimes

argh, it hurts.

switching off…

xo
anna

edit:
I saw the korean grl in parra library again :( & steve vamos is a pro
…at twising his words.

shucks, missed the senior drama production tonight

& let’s see
I dunno what’s goin on =)

but just gotta keep my head up.
for some people.
hang in there.
it’ll be okay.

* Voice Less

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006

Ain’t it funny how one photo can bring back so much.

life is so random
grr.

it’s 830pm & i’m comin back from a nice long band prac & dinner
i stare outta the window of the train
just lost in my own thoughts & lookin out as the train pulls into another station

suddenly

BAAMM

a guy kicks at the window in my face.

lol

thanks
don’t leave me with a silent heart attack or anythin you know

think my voice is goone =)

Hm.

Today, I talked to a few diff people about the future
uni, careers, dreams blah
since it’s gettin closer
but yea

I think I’m gonna try for International Studies
& travel away for a year
try to join a NGO
learn
do something useful for a change =)

tell you what sucks?
these days, if you’re artistic…
cos it’s so damn hard to live off your art
whether its music, art or drama etc
unless you’re 100% dedicated
your art ends up becoming a side project in life

but then again
I know some pretty damn talented people.
just hope it works out for them ;)
artists, musicians, actors, actresses…

who knows?

damn.
I thought by this stage I’d outgrow stupid dreams & think realistically.
Office job! woooo

some people try to encourage me to go further with singing.
but,
nah

it’s not like my grandma’s time
when she could run away & join a travelling troupe
& sing to make a living

Wanted to be a singer ever since I can remember
but what can you do..
esp. if you let it turn out this way.

singing in clubs one day?

$$
for some ching ching please

haha

I wonder where we’re all gonna end up?
What do people wanna do?

anyway,
steve vamos tomorrow

HOW EXCITING :D
wonder if anyone will end up gettin as far as he did one day?

well,
keep in touch

* Think Twice

Monday, May 15th, 2006

alcomohol is bad & makes us feel worse after the euphoria
…but we can’t stop drinkin it aye!

esp. if you’re rich and you can indulge in the odd johnny walker blue every night

this was a gift from a fam friend, but daamn how nice is the box =)

it’s funny how so many have come to love it
this poison

did you know poison in german is Gift?
LOL

it makes sense for them to call it that…
in a country where beer is cheaper than water =)
really.

hmm

It’s not fair.

I was so close to purposefully leaving some $ on a counter & doin a runner today
…sounds crazy yea?

so, why?

I was in the bathroom of parra library today
& noticed a middle-aged asian woman just scrubbing somethin in the sink
but I didn’t think anything of it

Looking closer, I noticed she was washing clothes.
She looked dishevelled & was a bit of a mess.
Just beside her, lay a large backpack, with a half-eaten loaf of bread on top.

There’s usually alotta homeless ppl around parra library
so I’m used to it yea?
Like most other times, I thought, damn.. poor woman
as I washed my hands & watched her scrub

However, a girl who looked only a few years younger than me
Who had messy hair & was wearing a red jumper & camo cargo shorts
Walked in
& spoke to her mum, the person scrubbing, in korean:

“Mum, the library’s going to be closing soon. Quick, we’ll have to leave here,”

…

and that’s why.

I’m wondering what stopped me now.

Is it what stops everyone who’s asked to donate anythin to charity?

If I distance myself from this, I won’t feel a thing?

It’s not my fault they ended up that way?

Oh how sad, now what’s for dinner?

Doing things like the red shield appeal next sunday is a way to feel like you’re doing something right…
but I dunno.. to me, nothing ever feels like enough.
no matter how many people are helped.

lol not tryna be a Mother Theresa or anything.

nobody needs to do anything.
nobody was asked to anything.

but sometimes I think it’d just be NICE
if just for a lil bit of time every day
we just stopped thinking about ourselves.
and getting absorbed
in those stupid, selfish thoughts

if you think nobody gives a shit about you,
think about half the world that no one else gives a shit about.

if you think school’s giving you hell,
think about living in a real hell of a war-torn country

yea real bombs & shit.
ha ha cool.

put life into perspective babes.

and if you still can’t see what I mean
why the fuck are you reading this?

but some people I know are going through some heavy stuff
& I guess charity does start at home.

So if you need a lil charity?

I can be your home ;)
xo
anna

edit:
mmm… I think too much & ask too many Qs =)

opps.
