Living in Taipei since August 09.

Things you can expect : I mostly talk about my life here, grad school, dating, languages, reblog a bunch of pretty pictures because I like fluff, news items/social justice/politics, and just about anything that strikes my fancy.

Hell’s Rage… not bad…

Witch’s Rage I like it, we could do cover of ‘Burning the Witches’ by Warlock 

Iron Death Realm

Guilty Death….
MEAH

Bleeding Temple. Not too bad. It could be a bleeding head wound or a piece of religious architecture with blood pouring down the walls. I like it.

Black Fury. Not bad.
(that actually sounds suspiciously like my attitude to a lot of things though…)

I highly dislike Thursday mornings because however early I get up I always end up running around freaking out about being late.

Plus I workout before I go anywhere, and for some reason as soon as I get out of the shower my face starts sweating again, and it’s not as if it were hot today. (I suspect my body just hasn’t had time to cool down yet, but I don’t have time to let it, blah).

To top it all off I didn’t actually have class today, which I would have known if I’d bothered to charge my phone. It’s been dead for the last two days; I just never got around to charging it because I don’t really use it. Blah. Idiot girl.

(and in grosser news, I woke up bleeding everywhere, which might explain why I’ve been slightly more nutty this week. Oh, hormones. You suck.)

Yeah, it really does! Unfortunately I’m a big sufferer of insomnia so I’m currently unable to sleep despite having an insane workload tomorrow. Oh well. Goodnight.

You poor thing! I’ve had my fair share of dealing with insomnia and it is a huge gigantic pain in the ass :/ Hope it gets better soon!

Me too. Tiredness + stress = bad times in general but especially in a relationship. Hang in there~ Get some sleep!

Thanks!

I can’t even really blame tiredness for it though (since discovering that my derm was right and sleeping earlier did WONDERS for my skin, I’ve been pretty good about it), just having a case of the nerves…although I can’t say I’ve been sleeping peacefully (I am a walking cliché - lots of dreams about pregnancy and death, oh look symbolism for change, ack), so I’ll claim that as an excuse…

And I’m going to go to bed now :P

Ugh. I am an unpleasant bitch at the moment.

I don’t mean to be, but every little thing seems to be getting under my skin. I’m blaming stress about the thesis and job-hunting, but that doesn’t make it any easier.

Especially for poor old Lion. We’ve already argued twice - nearly three times, although I just managed to keep a lid on it - this week, which is unusual.

Oh how I wish for a more pleasant disposition. Unfortunately, I got quick-tempered and anxious.

Can we have this tech now please? I know coal is fun and everything, but yeah, renewable energy from the sun sounds pretty good right now.

what to wear when…one is the snow queen (requested by captainsplenda).
the flake of snow grew larger and larger; and at last it was like a young lady, dressed in the finest white gauze, made of a million little flakes like stars. she was so beautiful and delicate, but she was of ice, of dazzling, sparkling ice; yet she lived; her eyes gazed fixedly, like two stars; but there was neither quiet nor repose in them.

Wah! Keep going, you can do it! This time zone thing really throws me off at what stage I should be encouraging you. Regardless, I hope you got/get there in the end :]

Thanks love! I’ll get it all done eventually, I know. Little by little!

Text

go for it! I assume you got it done now right? I think this is like a student disease that affects a large population of uni students. In college I used to write essays in sensible time… uni came and BOOM no logic to my timing. 加油加油!!

Errrrr mostly? I’m missing about three pages. I dunno, now that the end is in sight I am freaking out. Plus it’s still a shitton of work :(

Can Europe Be Saved?

The advantages of a single European currency were obvious. No need to change money when you arrived in another country, and the shared currency would strengthen the sense of European unity. What could go wrong?

Nyaaahhh why do I DO these things to myself, I shall never know. Instead of taking my time over the last three days and finishing the work I MUST finish before tonight, what do I do? Fuck all, that’s what.

So now I am once more having to focus for a long stretch of time to get it done in the next few hours, especially since I’m out for dinner tonight. Well. I’m half-way through, more or less, so it should be manageable, but argh. And I had it all planned out so nicely, as well.

In any case, it’s been a pleasant weekend, since I was out for dinner with Liz and a couple other mates Friday, during which we drank a looot of wine, and last night Lion, Vic, Blondie and I went to a party for the launch of a friend’s online clothes company, which was nice.

Tonight I’m meeting Kgirl for dinner since she’s in Taiwan for a friend’s wedding - she’s leaving tomorrow so this is the only chance I get, unfortunately :/ Otherwise I woul have considered cancelling to spare myself from having to work like crazy now.

Will I ever learn??

Probably not, let’s be honest.
