Dum Dee Dum... I'm Nutty Net and I often go nuts :P I have way more fun than the average human should, and I'm blessed with a beautiful family and so many lovely opportunities :) And this is where I come to settle all those crazy floating thought butterflies in my head :)
Hello hello hello ,
Yes, it is I , Netty Nut. It's that time of the year where I finally can blog without the guilt of potentially failing some major element of my education. Yes
It
Is
The
Holidays!!! Semester break = 6 weeks. I know, WTH?! Why have we been persecuted so long in high school with just a week here, a week there, a minute there, a millisecond in that little tiny corner between the teacher and the boy who smells like beef.
So, anyways, semester exams finished on Monday. This means I'm finished with 4 units! 4 ENTIRE UNITS. It's like, doing TEE for 4 subjects, but all in 6 months instead of 12. Give or take a few months, o'course. Tolerance = + or - 10%.
Yes, I included TOLERANCE. BITE ME I'm an engineer.
Well, at least, I hope I still am?!?! Those exams went.....hm..... yes.
Math and Electrical systems were fine, but Mechanics was quite honestly the most depressing exam I have written since Physics. Which brings me to another thought : I SUCKED AT PHYSICS BUT ENDED UP AS AN ENGINEER. Where's the karma kick there?
So, yes, there's one rant - Check!
My mind is so all over the place, blogging at midnight isn't conducive to any sense.
My dad's over here for 2 weeks, which basically means a BIG PAUSE BUTTON has been pressed on my social life, as I attempt to entertain my father in a desperate attempt to prove I really am a good daughter, and not just some bum he has reared whos slowly buggering away his hard-earned moolah and sleeping with everything that moves ( which i MOST EXPRESSLY DO NOT ).
So yes, been doing all sorts of things to that tune. Mostly sleeping in till late and then going for walks and getting some sun, as I need to grab as much Vitamin D as possible before the heavens open and rain comes pelting down like we're in the middle of a 9 month hurricane.
Yes, a 9 month hurricane. It's the baby of two monsoons who happen to be at the right place at the right time.
YEAH Mr. Monsoon + Ms. Monsoon = Hurricane.
God, my brain is sexy.
Anyways, what was I saying?
Oh yes, so I've been getting quite a bit of exercise and also recently have been doing a whole heap of fun things.
Went for half-price waffles on Tuesday at Gelare on Mends. Love it. Nothing quite like the taste of hot waffles, coated in quality maple syrup and delish whipped cream. It really is quite phenomenal, and at a stellar price.
I give this ----------**** stars.
Yes, I gave it 4 stars, problemo?
Hmm, let me think, what else was I going to say?
Oh yes, I recently downloaded Coldplay's new album after falling in love with Violet Hill ( a song whose video clip quite truly does it no justice whatsoever ) and so Viva La Vida or Death and all his friends is now the new addition to my family of music. say hi chris martin! :)
The songs are good, they really are, but when you hear the entire album in one sitting, the songs kinda end up sounding the same. Individually, each track is its own charttopper, but in one amalgamated mix of music, it's sort of the same thing, the random BIG BAND chorus, the piano intervals, the beating of the drums, Chris Martin's signature voice. It's all terribly lovely, but terribly mundane. They've got a slightly more symphony-esque album this time around, and more echo-ism, and consistent beats throughout, unlike the earlier albums, which had this more acoustic tone . Out of 10, I'd give it.......erm.......8.34569349 X 10 ^ -1
Yeah, that exact.
The other albums are :
Paramore - Riot.
GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD GOD! Their song Crushcrushcrush is fantasmic. I really love it. It has this edgy vengeful feel to it, and everyone loves a good vengeance song.
Which brings me to the other album I've downloaded.
Two girls called Aly and Aj, those of you from Brunei who watched TRL religiously must know them, they sang " Chemicals React " - ( you tube it, its well worth the watch). So, they have another song called Potential Breakup .
OMG
I LOVE IT
The vid is fantastic, these girls are hot as, and the music is just fabulush. I downloaded their albums instantly, sooooooooo goood.
So much sass, spunk.
I'll link lyrics.

So yes, love their tracks.
Another band that I've discussed before is red, they are quite quite awesome, I must say.

It is quite beautiful. Listen to the album. It is fab.
On another note, I'm trying desperately to lose weight as usual, to the extent that meals skipping is now a compulsory issue.
However, where I am failing is snacking. I keep snacking.
Someone, come up with a solution for snacking!
