Holidays, Holidays, Holidays, I think i've realised that the reason why these holidays are so boring because the fact that it's WINTER. Face it, in NZ there is not a lot of places to go. The fact that it's winter means we can't go to beaches, parks and basically anything which involves being outside. So if you eliminate those choices what do you really have left? Home or SHOPPING. Yes this is when I spend most of my time in malls, and I swear it's not doing my Wallet any good.
I go from mall to mall and just wen i thought i was doing SO well not spending, i went to St lukes and there was a hair straightening booth sitting where San Michelle's use to be, and the guy asked me to stop and showed me the straightener! He was telling me how it was a really good product just like a GHD but cheaper! He did parts of my hair and i must say, it did come out amazing! He was such a good salesmen, I mean seriously, he did sound very convincing! "its normally 289, but we're selling it at 250" I sat there with huge hesitations but I think he could tell that I was really keen on getting it so he whispered "Ok, I wont say it too loudly BUT i will give it to you for 230" Ah by then I was sold. LMAO It didn't help that he was quite good looking! Not New Zealand European obviously, cuz really there aren't a lot of good looking white KIWIS, lols but he must've been from somewhere in Europe. Yes now I own a very good straightener! =D My baby along with my Overland Boots.
Went clubbing on saturday and managed to get into Margi's for free when there was an entry charge. I was over the moon cuz i only had 20 dollars to spend, but somehow that money ended up gone by the end of the night i can't recall what i spent it on but no i wasn't drunk because I was sober driver. I don't know if its cause i'm getting old but Clubbing isn't as fun as it use to be. I remember how it use to be such a big hype when we turned 18, we use to LOVe going, now it's just alright. I was expecting to be going home REALLY early, but somehow I managed to stay out till almost 5am. Thanks to my two accomplice Sam.M and Preetika, I just didn't want to go home cuz it was soo fun! I appreciate People who can hold good conversations and not get bored. Preetika thinks its cause I'm a very people sorta person. But I can't stand being around people who answer with 1 word answers.
"How are you?"
"Good, What abt u?"
"I'm good"
*SILENCE*
"How's uni?"
"Gay"
"Yea..."
*SILENCE*
*SILENCE*
*SILENCE*
I can't stand silent people. lols Oh and another thing i've realised!! Being a girl isn't necessarily a bad thing, we do get a lot of things for free! Thank you boys. =D

Dine with Pieere Gordon
Dinner at Dine in Grand Hotel Sky City, First of all I would like to say: WHAT A TOTAL RIP OFF. Ok I'm normally not the sorta person who is really stinge with their money, but because I'm sorta broke at the moment I thought $50 dollars for a side and a main was totally not worth it, especially when the food wasn't exactly the best tasting food in the world. I've tasted better. It was basically food that you use for food fights. Everything was so overpriced that I had to ask if my sour cream costed money cause it didn't come with my meal I asked for it cause the potato tasted really bland. Luckily it didn't because I was totally prepared to give back the big saucer back with two swipes of sour cream taken off it. JOKES. Nah I would've just consumed the whole lot if it did cost me, even if i didn't have potatoes to dip it with!
Being an asian, and going to asian restaurants, I was expecting food to come out instantly, but no, they took hours to bring our things out, we spent about 2 hours there. I had to wait an hour for my food. Honestly, talk about lack of preparation, I don't know why they take hours to make your food at european restaurants. I went there hungry, prepared to get my food as soon as i got there, instead i sat there bored out of my brains and starving waiting. We got a dish complimentary by the chief, and to be honest it was one slice of beef the size of a coin before my meal. It wasn't fully cooked with some kinda sauce to go with it? It was food you feed a model. It makes me think that maybe they make their meals small proportion and overpriced for famous people. Where they need to look out for the figure and vomit it out when they get home that way it comes out in smaller chunks? NOTE TO MANAGER: NZ IS ONE OF THE TOP FEW COUNTRIES THAT DEAL WITH OBESITY. FEED US MORE!
And another thing! I'm very picky with my food, I don't eat a lot of things. Which was another problem when i got there cause the menu had things where I didn't like with my food like figs and brussle sprouts. I sat there playing with it while my cousin amy just turned to her boyfriend and gave him the whole chunk. Amazed that he actually took what she didn't want and sat their quietly. I asked if he was a picky eater, and he was like nope i eat anything! Amazed I thought to myself: Man i need a bf like that! but since i didn't I asked my other cousin if she wanted it, surprisingly enough she said no, so it just at on my plate, as the waiter took my dish he asked in concern if i enjoyed my meal, obviously not wanting to say No, I smiled and said "it was lovely."
As we were leaving, our bill was discounted with 10% because a friend worked there, which meant we had to figure out how much our meals cost cause of the 10% off, Some figured it out way faster then others, but basically 7 people paying took abt 15 minutes. The cashier specifically said we couldn't pay for our own meals cause of the 10%, but knowing us asians we still managed to find a way to pay our own by saying: okay I'm paying this much.. and he's paying this much... lolol which you could TELL he wasn't too happy about it. I tried to crack a joke to brighten his day and he just fully ignored it. I was thinking: "stink you aren't getting a tip then" Not that i was planning on giving one anyway. Basically I came out of the restaurant with a massive dent in my wallet. but it's okay.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JANET.

lyrics FAIL!
Ok well on a normal night if i'm on totally insomnia, I'll open up itunes and listen to music till i start falling asleep, listening to really slow love songs I lie there silently while One Wish by Ray J comes on. While listening to that it struck me that, the song totally contradicts the title. If you guys don't know how it goes, let me remind you.
I don't need a lot of wishes cuz
I'll be okay if i have one...
If i had one wish
we would be best friends,
lovin never end
it would just begin
If i had one wish,
you would be my boo,
promise to love you,
trust me, I'll trust you,
If I had one wish,
we would run away,
making love all day
have us a baby,
If i had one wish
I'd make you my whole life
can you be my wife
make it right this time
Now do you see what's wrong with the song?? Yes u do need a lot of wishes because it's not ONE WISH more like 4 long ones! gosh can he not count? Is this what happens when you're brokenhearted? You stop having commonsense or ur brain just fully shuts down?? If so, I rather be SINGLE.

Men's perfume =)
Well these past few days i have spent my days roaming around shops and i have started to find an interest in perfume shopping, amazingly enough I don't get dizzy from all the different smells. As wierd as it is, I LOVE smelling guys perfume, just to smell ones that smell good so i can either get them from my Best guy mates or future bfs, because I think it's vitally important for a guy to smell good! =) Guys who don't I try not stand at a reasonable distance. Now im not saying, guys should pile on very STRONG scented stuff cuz that just makes my head spin which then turns into a headache and headaches make me sick. I'm saying the really good stuff are ones that are fresh smelling, not too strong. Those are the ones that make me melt! If you smell good, I will want to be around you more and constantly hug you =) hahaha which means for people who don't want me to hug u or be around u steer clear from these perfumes:
1) Ck Eternity for Men
2) CK in2U Heat Lmtd edition
3) Bvlgari Aqua
4) Gucci Fore Him? (im not quite sure what's its called but andy and bert has it)
5) Burberry (checkered one black and white striped one)
6) CK one
Those are the ones I can think of right now, to be honest I haven't really tried all mens ones. But there are some girls ones that I LOVE Too.
1) JLo Glow
2) Escada (not sure wat the one is but its pink bottled)
3) Gucci Envy
4) Dior Jdoure amour
Note to Self: Start spraying something good. It attracts the opposite sex! =D

First Post for 2010!
Wow, first post for 2010 and it's already half way through the year, I guess i just haven't really had the time to update anything lately cause i've been so busy, or more like i sorta gave up on blogs. But since Mid year break is upon us I am back once again! Thank boredom I guess! Hmmmm... since 2009 what has changed? New Uni? New Friends? New image? New love? New life? As i am sitting here pondering over the last 6 months or so, I have realised that SO much has changed since last year.
Number 1: I have started to lose my mad pool skills. The one where I could easily win money Paul and Bert with. Is it because there is no incentive in playing with the people i do now? Or is it because I stop going regularly? Slowly the shots I use to be so good at are slowly disappearing, and pool to me will be just something i "Use" to be good at. JOKES im still a pro.
LMAO nah actually im still alright. not as confident as i use to be though. =(
Number 2: My view of friendship has totally changed. Basically its a team effort, both parties must contribute the equal amount. Same with every relationship. Which means, I shouldn't have to be the one always texting and asking whether you want to hang out or not, or first one to say hi. Those who do not want to be your friends, that's fine with me, you're loss, There are many people out there. True friends are the ones who stick by you no matter what, who would never do anything to hurt you and are able to Forgive and forget.
Those who can't deal with it, I can replace you with 5 other people.
Number 3: My average spending amount has increased rapidly. The 'old' jen would spend less than 100 bucks on shoes, anything at 100 or above that is way overpriced. The 'new' jen spends 320 bucks on leather boots that needs to be molded into. also goes shopping almost weekly and ends up buying one item per week. therefore, savings and money in the bank are very limited! Thanks to the bank teller told me to go on an 1000 dollar overdraft rather then 100 because either way you are paying 2 dollars every month on whenever u go on overdraft anyway so might as well make the most of it. He somehow made it very convincing and made it sound logical which now when i think about it i should've said: No thank you, just the 100 will do. because heck i would not be as much in debt as i am right now if i stuck to $100 OD.
I NEED SHOPAHOLIC REHAB. Like the ones in Confessions of a shopaholic.
Number 4: There is such thing as a perfect guy. I've met him.
No need for explanation or anything else. That one sentence says it all. PERFECT.
Number 5: This year i am turning the big two OWE. 20 yup yup, I consider that as getting to the 'adult' stage. Lotto people have stopped asking for my ID, Bouncer's don't have to look twice at my id anymore. What's up with that? Have i really grown up that much in 2 years that I don't look like I'm 18 anymore? That sucks because I don't have a baby face, which means when i turn 40 i'm actually going to look 40 and not 35 or 30. I will never be referred to as a 'MILF' unlike Melissa. haha however..
I will be able to go into the casino now =) Poker here i come! JOKES lol
Number 6: The Fifa world cup, New Zealand is actually playing the Fifa world cup this year, now normally I do not watch soccer because I'm not into watching men running around kicking a ball but because New Zealand's playing i thought i'd show a bit of support and so far New Zealand has impressed me. Okay, so maybe we haven't won any games yet but we've tied both! It's amazing how happy people are about their ties, it's considered as 'wins' but really both team had the same score? so if we won, the other team won too? but aparently it's a big achievement for NZ because Italy was the best team in the world and we tied with them, which means we're just as good as they are? I think it was luck, there were so many times where italy could've scored, but somehow they managed to screw up their chances! like the goal where it hit the post? talk abt unlucky!! Oh and how about somebody tell Italy boys to stop acting like little women and toughen the fuck up?? Gosh, they make such big scenes about little bumps and falls, If that's how soccer is really played how abt u let the women do it? gosh we'd be better at making a scene then u boys would! we may even get a bit of pulling each others hair like that idiot who tug on the italian guy's shirt which gave them a free shot. Which btw im sure u boys would enjoy too ;)
ITALIANS ARE PUSSYS. GO PLAY IN THE GIRLS SOCCER TOURNAMENT.
Number 7: I have managed to sustain my weight loss from last year. People seem to compliment me about how I've lost weight which i feel so proud of. Don't really know how though cuz i havent been to the gym in ages, and NO it's not cause I'm having sex.
'You lose just as much calories while having sex as you do at the gym'
heck gym's way more harder then sex. LMAO
Yeap, I have CHANGED.
