My new favourite song

Where has this been all my life?

Double lab tomorrow, goodnight all.

The best thing since itself

I heard the new iPhone came out so I went to use the uni computers with Elena to check it out. It looked alright, they finally got rid of the glass back which I found stupid to begin with (glass made it look nice but drop it and it cracks and it scratches easy too. So people end up protecting it with a cover which defeated the purpose). Is it revolutionary? Definitely not. There aren't any real breakthroughs with this one. I think iPhone 4 was the best one to really change the smartphone industry standards.

I watched the video of it on the Apple website. My favourite thing about these videos is that they always use inspiring music and video effects that make it seem cool. Sadly it wasn't as awesome as when I watched the iPhone 4 and iMac, maybe I'm used to it? Bottom line, I don't think I want to buy an iPhone anymore.

Speaking of consumerism, I've been keeping my eye on this movie which is both creepy and fascinating. It kinda has a eye opening message kind of thing. The movie is called Branded and it's a conspiracy type movie about major companies secretly brainwashing us to buy their stuff and become dependent and passive. Did I mention it was creepy? Hint: don't watch it if you don't want to get creeped out.

LOL at the thumbnail. Also I find it stupid how they start the context with "what if..."


Wasn't gonna tell anyone but I was planning to do the Jay Park cover contest thing before the deadline changed. I was going to learn it tomorrow/Saturday and send it just before the deadline, just for fun. I don't want to take it seriously though, it'll probably stress me out or something. I saw one of the entries and it looked good, too bad it went over two minutes, not sure how strict Jaye will actually be. Kinda biased on wanting Carmen or at least someone I know to make it next round with that song.

These past couple of days were horrible. Day in and out I have done nothing but work on my literature review. I could worked on my BABS pracbook which sorely needs fixing up and catching up, or started revising for stats. Now it's Sunday and I feel like my head is going to explode. I wish this was over soon. Nine in the morning start tomorrow. I honestly don't think I can physically wake up in time. Almost finished. Too bad this last article is hard to understand and I have to go back and cut a lot of words since accidentally set the bar too high. I hope nothing like this happens again this semester.

Springtime

It's now spring and the first day of the midsem break. Well it's not much of a break, more like "hey you've got tons of assignments and stuff to do so we'll stop classes so you can catch up". Normally it doesn't turn out that way.

Today I taught Fiction and five people turned up which was good. We did the stagger properly (I was the one who walks past them haha) and they did the chorus pretty well too. A lot of new people, some did other CO classes but not Saturday. I remember one of them saying they went to last week's class, which would have been David's. The person was also female. Coincidence?

Afterwards Huy and Jibbie came to the studio and Huy tried helping me to do a back handspring. It needs a lot of work. Context - one of the things I wanted to do by the end of the break was to be able to do a back handspring. He suggested parkour classes which I may actually have time for.

Went to Strathfield to get my hair cut. A new person cut my hair. Note to self, be as specific as you can. Comparing to my previous haircut, this is so much worse. I should remember to always ask to keep my fringe intact or use a reference photo which I did for my last hair cut. I'll be really impressed to whoever can guess which person I used.

Went home feeling gross with my new hair and tried fixing it up with product. It looked alright but I couldn't get it to look good.

Anyways, went to eat Thai food in Parramatta since my brother was going to school to watch a drama presentation. It was almost 7 and my brother had to go so he and my dad left me and my mother at the restaurant. In the end I ate a lot of food feeling very bloated.

I listened to that Owl City and Carly Rae Jepson song properly now. It's alright. I like Owl City and how he's a proud introvert. I remember when people complained about Fireflies while I thought it was good.

Tomorrow is Father's day. Not sure what we're doing but guess I'll find out tomorrow.
