Here's a list of trivia about myself I enjoy discussing... because I realise I'm very quirky indeed. Can anyone relate?
- I read fanfiction WAAAYYY too much. including Naruto, Pokemon (yes, I said POKEMON), Harry Potter, and AsianFanfics. Yes. Asian fanfics. -.-
- I almost always start off stories/conversations by saying: "You know how..." as in, "You know how yesterday, blah blah blah?" or "You know how I always say 'you know how'?"
Yup, discovered that when I was practising my Shanghainese and attempted to talk about an event with my mum and realised I didn't know how to start because I couldn't say "You know how..."
...It's just sad.
- I lack self-confidence even though I act like I'm the king of the world. And yet, there are times where I'm so up myself, I must ramble endlessly to my mum about how skilful I am at everything. Such as doing a body roll... ;)
- There are random moments where I feel incredibly responsible or whatever, as in, I suddenly feel the urge to clean my room. Or do my work. Or write a blogpost. ^^
- I get ultra-sleepy in the arvos. Around 5-7pm, meaning I'm both a night-owl AND a morning person.
- Whenever we go on camp, I'm always the one who gets out of bed first and rips the covers off other people. It's tonnes of fun. And yet, it takes me an hour to get out of bed at home...
- If I lost my iPod touch, I will probably be on the verge of a mental breakdown. Oh wait, maybe not. Correction: If the internet is gone forever and I lose all the music and notes on my iPod touch, THEN I will have a mental breakdown.
- I adore books. And pens. Traditional, FTW!
- On that note, I know how to write calligraphy. I'm not so great at Chinese callig, but I'm pretty damn good with English. I also have a wax seal-er.
- For some reason, I like the sound of "i adore you" a teeny bit more than "i love you". Maybe because I love you is said to friends and everyone, but if you went around saying I adore you, people would be... 'stay away from me you creep'
- Umm... I'm going to leave it there. It's 1:07am now... GOODNIGHT EVERYONE!!! Maybe someday I'll write up a Me Trivia pt 2?

Annyeong~ Randomdomdomdom~
Hi, I'm just being a creeper, creeping around creepily at 12:43am because I have nothing better to do.
So semi-formal was on a few days ago, that was pretty fun... But my friends need to learn how to party without the need to seek out those people who they THINK are better party-ers than me. -shakes head- Yes, I'm talking to you Lils. I'm talking to you... but not only you. I'm not that slack... OR AM I??
No, sorry, I'm really, really bored, so this post will be random.
And it SHOULD be short. As in, I ought to stop typing, because whatever I'm typing isn't necessary for the world to see...
To Americans, who won the presidential vote?
To S. Koreans, who's your favourite K-Pop group?
To Aussies, ...sup?
Oh, and year 12 starts next monday... bleh. I'm not ready for my last year of highschool. Why are you doing this to me?!
T.T So depressing.
In other news, that Asian guy on Beauty and the Geek... Yaren? Yarin? Yerin? Yuran? Damn, I knew his name two hours ago! That guy actually isn't that geeky. It's his appearance only. The way he talks to the camera in that single-interview room and the way he interacts with the beauties shows that he isn't that geeky - he's just the epitome of a stereotypical asian dude. I was disappointed by the teeny tiny amount of screentime he got... -sigh-
...Sooo.... yeah, I really truly should stop typing. But you know, this is why I made a blog in the first place?
I talk a LOT. It's horrifically true. And normally, I would be hand-writing all of this somewhere (because I think my thoughts are just that interesting and important. In two hundred years time, people will dig up my journals and read them in awe.) but Lily said, "Oh my gosh, you should get a blog!" and here we are.
Ever since I got a blog, I stopped writing so much because my thoughts were: "Oh, I should save this thought for the blog." But I got lazy, and all my thoughts were lost. It's only moments like this where I have all the time in the world to just... type.
There's no better time in the day than around 10pm... Except 10am. Which I think is one of the most ideal times to wake up. That, and 9am. One hour difference, whatever.
And speaking of one hour, Daylight Savings starts? ends? this weekend! Better not forget, or I'll be turning up to school one hour early. And gosh, who would EVER want to do that?!
See?? You can see my train of thought just by reading my lengthier and spontaneous blog posts! One topic goes to another and there we go, a few hundred words easy.
We'll probably get our results back (as in, Yr 11 Yearly results) next week and I'll find out if I got into Ext 2 English or not... I hoping I do, but at the same time, I'm slightly worried because my well of ideas is completely dried out at the moment. At least, my non-k-pop related well of ideas.
Bah, I'll just change the names of the characters and there we go.
I'm going to post up a list of little trivia about me which I consider interesting in another blog post. This one has gone on long enough.
Goodnight~

Procrastination
"...running circles in my head. While you sit there contemplating, you're wound up left for dead"
~When I'm Gone by Simple Plan
Why do people procrastinate so much? 'People', namely myself and other unfortunate teenagers.Over this last week, I discovered how easy and how QUICK it is to have a shower when you aren't distracted. Just hop in, shower, and hop out. If I wanted to, I could be out of the bathroom in 10mins, i.e. including doing some business and brushing my teeth. If that's the case, why do I end up staying in the bathroom for such a long time - sometimes even more than one hour?
Simple: distractions.
I always end up sitting on the floor reading a book. Or I'll be watching a video, drawing, writing... And no, this wasn't originally written in the bathroom! I wrote it in the bedroom with messy writing due to not having an avaliable seat...
Sorry, I digress. Life would be a lot better if my attitude towards that kind of thing was like my attitude to food: "I'm full. No more." So in this case, it'd be "I've had enough. I need to work. No more." Even when I'm dying of work because I left 3 assignments to the last day ONE THE SAME DAY, I don't start to seriously work until 11pm. I admit, I'm getting better, but still... Why do I do this to myself?!
It's ridiculous. I consciously realise that if I didn't procrastinate, and did my work and then relaxed, I would enjoy my relaxation time so much more.
While it's such an easy concept in theory, it's such a difficult action to carry out.
For this reason alone, I've decided - especially since I'm getting into the higher grades - to not leave assignments to the last day, and start working - at the latest - one week before it's due. (Considering the the tiny amount of work I do when I am working, that's actually a good timeframe...) Since we're normally given two weeks for assignments, good luck to myself, I say...
I think the final conclusion is that procrastination is enjoyable because we're too caught up in the moment of enjoyment. It's like being drunk (not that I'd know what it's like). You don't realise the consequences until you wake up with a killer hangover.
That's Kate, out~!
P.S. Happy New Year. I'm going for something different with the start of the new year. I rarely update, so I've gone back to being old-style and writing in a physical book. That's why some of these posts may sound a little bit strange like the 'writing this in the bathroom' stuff. Yes, I wrote this in the bedroom. Anyway, that's all I've got to say for now. You'll see more about this in the next post I do titled "Handwriting... and Technology".
