Insomnia.
Wednesday, June 30, 2010
My sister has irregular sleeping habits. She will fall asleep at 9pm at night and wake up at 4am in the morning to do her homework. The thing is I am a very light sleeper whose idea of an early bedtime is midnight, and whatever waking time I have in mind it is probably NOT 4am… And we share a room. But I have to admit that there’s a lot more than just my sister keeping me up. Blogging inspirations chose this ridiculous ungodly hour to present themselves in the front of my head, as well as a whole lot of other problems. Which is why I am here at 6.30am checking facebook and, of all things, blogging.
–_______- But the toll of four and a half hours of sleep is showing. There are so many things I want to tell you. I want to tell you that I discovered a love of photography but I don’t have a fancy camera. Heck, I don’t even have a camera. I want to tell you that SASA’s in trouble again! (; hehehe hi Lily. I want to tell you about how everyone seems to be in such a hurry to move their lives along. Do you have any idea how many people are leaving because they’ve gotten scholarships? This is so sad; because no matter how many times we try to remind ourselves that change is life’s only constant, it still sucks to see someone go. I want to tell you about my holiday so far – my beautiful cliché of a vacation at Pulau Perhentian, the perfect cookie recipe and Briana’s 18th Birthday Bash @ Blossom Deli. I want to tell you about volunteering at animal shelters and how I can’t understand why people want to dye their pet’s hair, and squash them into tiny little frilly dresses – in short, trying to make their pets fit our definition of what is pretty. Why is there even a need for animals to be pretty and cute anyhow? I want to tell you that the Cleo magazine often features amazing lifestyle articles, and one article from the June 2010 issue particularly caught my eye. It was about how women have unfair expectations set upon them, and how too much body love isn’t good for you. It was an eye-opener. I want to share with you all the wonderful PostSecrets I found. And I want to tell you how badly I need a functioning laptop of my own! And I WILL tell you, just not right now, because it IS 6.30am in the morning, and I have only had four and a half hours of sleep. This is just a spoiler for what’s coming next.

INTRODUCING
Name: Louise
13 April 1992
You can only call me Lulu if you don’t think the name’s funny.
I am a member of the Smiley Conspiracy and a proud ex-CHS-ian, graduating class of 2009. Now doing A-Levels at HELP University College. Is proudly Malaysian, but doesn’t look like it and is proud of that too.
This is the 7th time I am editing this about section of the blog this year; I have sort of accepted that my personality is ever-evolving, ever-changing, therefore rendering my moods as volatile as the weather. But just as there are some things that have stood untouched across the centuries by harsh weather, so there are some things with me that remain ever the same: a belief that to live is to learn, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks.
What I love also remains constant. I love good food, dancing, fresh experiences, open minds and friendly people, all of which can be found in the wonderful wonderful city that is Istanbul. I love musicals, plays, good books, stickers, owls, colourful wrapping paper, hugs and kisses, chocolates, almost any music from the 17th to the 21st century, intense debates and post-it notes.
Fictional characters I have been compared to (in terms of personality) are Piglet from Winnie The Pooh and Kelsi from High School Musical.
I dream of finishing this list [29/8/2010: list is undergoing revamp!], and my secret ambition is to become a hairdresser or bartender. Unfortunately I’m also incredibly kiasu, so I’m going to go to university just to show everyone that I can. But want to go to uni also because I love learning lah!
Words that describe me are impulsive, impetuous, quixotic, sanguine, quirky, bewildered, kiasu and hodgepodge. The last one also refers to my sense of fashion.
*GRINS* :D
