The Lizard

HEyyyy!!! It's time for my 3month-ly update!!

Anyway, this incident happened about a month ago, but because this happened to me(lazy blogger) I only decided to put it up today~

What happened:

I was happily playing games on the laptop when I saw something dark move really fast across the wall in front of me.. At first, I thought.. "hmm.. what? shadow?"

After 5 minutes, it happened again, this time I happen to catch it moving - A LIZARD!!

So I panicked and searched for an insecticide spray(thanks for the idea, housemates of 124E) and SPRAYED it! It dissappeared...
for 30 minutes I was in constant fear that it might run out at me...
..
..
..
it did run out again after 30 minutes, this time I sprayed it directly! So it ran away.. I didn't know where it was..

Thanks to the spraying, my room was really smelly, so I pulled my curtains aside to let in fresh air.. but the lizard fell past my hands and onto my table, right beside my laptop.

I.. SCREAMED and it rolled about and fell on my bed.. and stayed there silently and just LYING there as if it owned my bed!

I panicked even more and asked a friend what to do with the lizard because it was right beside me(less than 2 feet away) and is right next to my pillow....
My "awesome" friend told me to vacuum it, and since I was too scared to touch it or shoo it away from my bed(risking it running at me or breaking its tail on my bed) I went downstairs and got a vacuum..

Before I can turn on the vacuum, the asshole lizard crawled under my blanket(yeah, I don't make my bed) so I started vacuuming my top blanket and my pillow and my Moo away from the bed and still couldn't spot the lizard.. I was hysterically screaming while holding onto the vacuum, 4 feet away from the bed.... and that was exactly what my housemate saw when he reached the top of the stairs, as he just reached home.

I semi-begged him to help me with the lizard because I was too afraid to sleep in my bed knowing that the lizard was somewhere under my blanket.. It turned out that he was afraid of lizards as well!!

Anyway, he helped to lift my blanket, shake it to check for the lizard.. and the lizard was clinging onto my blanket for dear life! The second I saw it, I screamed, he yelled and dropped my blanket and we ran out of my room.. He went back in, picked up my blanket(the lizard was on the floor) and I was yelling "SPRAY IT!! SPRAY IT!!" so he took the insecticide, sprayed it while it rolled around in agony(I'm sorry for the cruel death, but lizards freak me out)

After about 10 seconds of spraying, it was still twitching and my housemate acted as though he was about to leave it there and go back to his room, so I asked him to help get it out of my room..
Since he was afraid of lizards as well, he went to the toilet, took a LOT of tissue(while muttering that I owe him big) went back into my room and stared at the lizard for 2 minutes.

I stood outside my room, peeking in while he attempted to pick up the lizard with the load of toilet paper in his hand. Every time he felt it move under the tissue, he'd yell while I screamed....... He finally got the lizard after a few tries, ran to the toilet and flushed it.

My housemate is my hero now :D (he still annoys me and he cooks stinky food almost everyday, but saving me from a lizard is epic)

I called my sister and told her about the lizard episode the next day.. and she told my brother.. and my brother told his girlfriend.. they now call me the evil lizard murderer although the one who did the murdering was my housemate ;_;

Anyway, I'm sure you're wondering why I only posted this now when it happened a month ago? Well, the day after this happened, my grandma passed away and after that I had to concentrate on finals.. My papers are finally over and I have spare time now before going home to Malaysia... So yeah, here it is. The Lizard.

I'll update again when I'm back in Brisbane after my winter break back in Malaysia! That means, see you in 2 months!

New look!

Heyyyyy!!

I edited my blogskin(finally) with help from Lilian(not much)

How do u guys like it? Most of u are saying it's too cute for me :P
HAH! I've turned cute! LOLOLOL!!

Anyway, update on the spider:

my housemate is a total hero to me now, he caught the spider with tissue paper and flushed it dead!! YEAH!! :D

Home.. And.. "The Spider"

okay, as most of u know, I went home to Malaysia last week :)

The week went by in a blur of activities:
I met up with college friends, went shopping and met up with high school friends.

A few things "happened" to me during my trip home... Here's the list:

I am a new Crocs Convert. I WANT CROCS! Of course, I don't want those fugly original crocs, I want the ballet flats crocs. They look "Okay" and yet it feels like I'm walking on air! I want them!

Next thing was Joonkie and I took Steph's unagi virginity when we had her eat unagi in Sakae Sushi :P
Also, we watched How to train a Dragon.. IT'S AWESOME!! IT'S SOOOO totally my FAVOURITE movie now!! :D <3

Last thing I realized was... *dramatic drumroll and music*

My boobs shrank. I needed new bras to fit my mini boobs now *sadface*





The Spider

When I reached Brisbane and went home, there was a HUGE spider in the corner of the bathroom. I spotted it when I was drying myself after a shower. This was Friday.
I looked around for it all Saturday and today but couldn't find it.
It is now 10pm Sunday, I spotted it - above the door. I urgently need to pee, but I can't because its THERE staring at me with 8 huge eyes! Also, it's huge and scary :(
I asked my housemate to help and he poked it with a stick - it fell on the floor and now we can't find it. I'm more scared now than I was when it was above the door :( BECAUSE IT'S ON THE FLOOORRRRR!!!
Someone please save me T_T I need to pee :(

My fav line coming from my ECON1010 Microeconomics lecturer from today

We were discussing about the market for parental rights for babies (adoption)

So we were discussing on whether there should be a free market for it -

If there were a free market...

- most would-be parents would easily get their adopted children
- would-be parents wouldn't need to go through the 'tests' in order to get their children (and is this good or bad? it is good because bad would-be parents would be eliminated from the list, but then again it is bad because it intrudes the privacy of the would-be parents: weight, age are all taken into account, so people who want to be parents can't be more than 40[makes no sense because some people get married at 30, try to have a baby naturally for a few years and then try up for adoption at 36 and stays on the waiting list for 4 years and are canceled out of the list when they hit 40])
- some women would get pregnant on purpose just to 'sell' the baby

Now, would it be fair to judge those women?
No, it isn't. It is like judging prostitutes and drug sellers - most people just aren't prostitutes/drug sellers because they don't think the current market price is worth it.
Therefore, women who do 'sell' their babies shouldn't be judged.

Here comes the awesome line:

Quote:
"I'm not clever so I can't get a job, I'm not pretty so I can't be a prostitute. But I can pump out babies."


Meh~ I know, lame post for today, but I found it amusing ;)

what a fucked up morning to start my day off

right. I was freaking sure I left my room door unlocked when I left the room, I even turned the knob to make sure before I went downstairs. When I went back up, it is LOCKED!! I had to wake my housemate and ask him to call my landlord shithead.

Conversation went like this:
Me: Hey can u call the landlord?
Jerk: Err.. sure, I'll sms him.
Me: Call please? It's urgent. I locked myself out.
Jerk: *silence for a few minutes* Er, OK. Later I check how much you need to pay me(he means for the call)
Me: .. Yeah, sure.

The idiot then calls the landlord, who then asks to speak to me and the conversation went like this:
Shitlord: You locked yourself out? Why didn't you check the door before going out? Do you know there is a call-out fee of 100 dollars?
Me: Yes. I know.
Shitlord: So you still want me to come over and unlock the door?
Me: Yes. (very pissed now because he's asking the fucking obvious. like HELLO? DO I HAVE A CHOICE??)
Shitlord: Alright. I will come over. Do you have 100 dollars on you?
Me: NO. It is in my room.
Shitlord: Alright, then. I will come over and unlock your room.


FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK I HATE MY LIFE FML FML FML
I HATE MY LANDLORD
I HATE MY HOUSEMATE
BOTH ARE JERKS
my landlord fucking STATES THE OBVIOUS and it's not like I have any OTHER CHOICES!!! _|_

my housemate is so stingy that a 30 sec call is something I need to pay back to him! Also, everytime the apartment has any problems, he will ask ME to sms the landlord. FUCK MAN!! FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!

I AM ANGRY

OK, I know that I've not updated my blog in ages...
And many things I'm gonna rant about, most wouldn't know.. But here's a brief explanation:
I've left home and moved to Brisbane, Australia. I have an asshole jerk for a housemate who is inconsiderate, stupid and a hypocrite. I also have an annoying, pinch-coin, selfish and long-winded landlord who keeps popping into the house a few times every week.

Rant:

I AM SO ANGRY with my landlord. I just had 3 hours of sleep last night and I just fell asleep at 7. He called me at 7.30 to nag me about how I swept the house but didn't use the pan to put the dust in. GUESS WHAT? THERE IS NO DUSTPAN!! There is only a tiny brush with an attached pan that will you have to squat in order to sweep up everything.

At least I've swept the place!! My housemate(the jerk) was supposed to vacuum up the dust I've put in the corner. I've swept the house on Tuesday and told him to vacuum and mop the place. It is Saturday today and I've swept the place AGAIN and he still hasn't done what I asked him to do on TUESDAY!!

It is because of the jerk, that the landlord saw the pile of dust and called me in the middle of my catch up sleep. More info on the jerk later - ANYWAY the dumb landlord nagged n told me in detail like as if I'm a retard(eg: my housemate) how to use the mini dustpan and brush(that already has dust accumulated on its frayed ends so it can't sweep nuts) for 10 minutes!!

After that call, I was so angry that I couldn't sleep back!

FUCK THE BOTH OF YOU!! I HATE YOU BOTH!! I hope that some drunk rapist will just RAPE YOUR ASS!!

Info on jerk housemate:

He is a hypocrite who claims to be neat and tidy(just because he organizes his things into boxes in his room) and yet he is DIRTY in the common area. Please take note that being messy and clean(like myself) is VERY different from being neat and DIRTY!!
I may leave my clothes scattered on the table in my room and have my bags everywhere, but my THINGS are clean and there is not much CRAP lying around. I also leave the common clean and wash the dishes properly after I used them!

On the other hand, he leaves his dumb food sitting in the rubbish bin and bits of food from his cooking on the kitchen counter. He also doesn't wash the dishes and pans properly because when I use them after him, there are remnants of HIS food stuck to the pan/spatula - ITS GROSS!!

He is also an inconsiderate jerkhole who uses the pots n pans before me and EAT while watching TV, and only washes them AFTER he finishes watching TV. Means if I want to cook my food after him, I will have to wait about AN HOUR before I can start cooking. Inconsiderate JERK!!

Also, I always thought that going to UQ would eliminate the chances of my ever meeting dumb ass stupid idiots. Well, I LIVE with one now!! It surprises me how such a dumb ass like him can get into UQ. I don't know if he's book smart, but he is definitely not smart from every other sense! There are so many things I've always assumed were general knowledge and he doesn't even know them!! A few examples would be that he didn't know that instant pancake mix existed, he thinks that Accounting is "an easy job, you just enter in numbers into a computer and the computer will do all the work for you. Then they pay you a lot! I want to be rich!". .... DUMB ASS!! I _KNOW_ people who are accountants and they work like DOGS for their pay, and it isn't much when you just start off!! Hell, if there were such an easy job with a high pay, EVERYONE would be accountants!!

Oh, one more thing he said that offended me a LOT!
Let me quote him:
"People who live in big bungalow houses are not happy families. Me? My family lives in a Semi-D house and we are very happy."
Okay, this quote has many points that I need to explain.

First: I live in a bungalow house and MY family is a very happy and close family.
Second: WHO is he to say that families who live in bungalows are unhappy?? Hell, he told me that he rarely sees his own father who works as a doctor. Apparently only sees him a few hours a week. HOW IS THAT A HAPPY FAMILY??
Third: He said he wanted to be rich. Does this mean that although he said families who live in bungalows are unhappy, he still wants to be rich?? HYPOCRITE!!!
Fourth: So, families who live in a Semi-D house are really happy? I know a LOT of friends from broken families who DON'T live in bungalows. NOW EAT THAT!!

Next,
he always goes on and on about him eating so healthily and shit. Well, I can see that he eats 4 full meals a day and most of the time the meals are instant noodles and food that makes you fat(bad for health, yo) He's just the type of guy who eats like a bull and remains skinny and gross. Also, I've been in the common room a few times when he was eating and he eats LOUDLY like.. with his mouth open and making the loud iritating noise!!

Ah yes, noise. He plays his keyboard at night when I want to study/sleep. Very considerate, no? ASSHOLE!! He plays it without earphones when he can just plug his earphones in so I wouldn't be disturb, but he doesn't!! He also blows his nose really loudly at the sink about 20 times a day and it sounds like an elephant trumpet!

You must be thinking. Wow, Kim. You sure rant a LOT!! Well, I'M NOT DONE YET!!
During the first week, I was trying to be nice and friendly to him so I introduced him to a few of my friends I met during orientation. He was polite to them - and then he turned back to his HELP University friends and chatted with them while my friends and I stood there waiting for AT LEAST an introduction.... that never came. THAT IS FUCKING RUDE!!!

After that, I was pretty annoyed with him but still trying to be patient and nice because I'm used to having awesome and friendly housemates who are close together.... So we agreed to get internet together, and we walked to the mall together(5 minutes walk, really near!) Before going to the mall, he told me to wait for a minute while he applies sunblock lotion for the 5 minute walk. So I waited for him and we left. He opened this huge ass umbrella to shield himself from the sun and told me how he forgot to apply sunblock for a day and got "SO dark". He also told me how he loves fair skin and dislikes tanned skin. The entire time he was telling me this, he was under his big ass umbrella while I stood beside him UNDER THE SUN!!

Please.. tell me.. what kinda GUY would stand under an umbrella beside his HOUSEMATE and not offer to share? ESPECIALLY SINCE THE HOUSEMATE IS A GIRL???!?!!!

Anyway, we never got to share the internet. He ended up buying a mobile broadband and I had to go on to get my own Naked Broadband(that I had to pay 500 dollars for the modem MYSELF) Why is that? Oh, he heard from his FRIENDS that the mobile broadband was better and he doesn't wanna share with me because I'll only be here for a year while the contract for the internet is 2 years. Well, I have my internet now so I'm not so bitter anymore. But, SUCK on this asshole, my internet is WAY better than yours now!!

Oh yeah, remember me saying that he's a stupid asshole? Once, he said that Australians are really unfriendly(this isn't true, Aussies I've met are WAY friendlier than most Malaysians) and that they use Australian slang words. He was really angry that they used Aussie slang because he didn't understand them and his justification is that "Why did they use that term? It isn't international!" WELL BUDDY, that's why it's called AUSSIE SLANG, not INTERNATIONAL SLANG!! You are in Australia now, so LEARN it instead of expecting people to talk the way YOU do just because you are Asian!!

Speaking of that, he also uses a FAKE accent that is neither American, British or Australian. It's just fake and very obvious he is trying hard to sound different(from other FOB Asians) Well, it's ANNOYING and it PHAILS!! Not only is it plainly fake, he also speaks broken English which annoys the hell outta me because he sometimes alternates between American, British and the Unknown accent - ALL in broken English!!

ARGH!! I feel better now after this :)

Will update the blog with happier things(hopefully) next time!!
