Fail!

Well, I must say I haven't blogged in a long long time. No one uses blogspot anymore. True that <-- just a little phrase I've been using lately. pretty lame if you ask me.

So what's been going on in my life? Nothing much really if you ask me. I went to see DragonForce on Thursday 19th November, actual amazing although hardly anyone actually likes them. I don't really care, just don't come to me and complain about how bad my music taste is. As I've said to some people - "Different people have different music tastes. Deal with it" and they accepted that fact. Some people these days need to be taught a lesson. Anyway, the gig was actual amazing, got back at midnight. The next day was school so I was trying hard to keep awake instead of sleeping through all the lessons I had. Thank god I had some Coca Cola lying around. Caffeine is always good :D Couple of days after, my neck hurts, brilliant. This is what gigs do to me. Abbie and I have agreed that two gigs in a a space of 4 days is not a good idea. Oh the joys of school days. SO...The Enemy on Sunday...wait, that's tomorrow. Sooo looking forward to that.

Today...I have failed to do my stupid English essay, well I don't really have to do it, just redraft it and today happened to be the day where my brain doesn't really work. I'm not coming up with any ideas what so ever and it's in for Monday! OH NO! *gasps* I'm sure I'll live. I'll have to stay up late to finish it before the gig tomorrow. So I've been watching Charlieissocoollike's Vlogs on youtube and they were actually really funny. It got me thinking. I want to do a Vlog now! but that's never going to happen in a million years because I'll fail miserably. So I decided to do some blogging and talk about....anything and everything that isn't at all relevant to anything. That didn't even make any sense. I'm actually in a pretty funny mood today.

Yesterday, my back hurt, looking in the mirror and found out there's a mahoooooosive spot on my back. Eughh, lovely. So yeah :)

Twitter is the place to be ---> www.twitter.com/karennlai :) not that I have any followers what so ever because....I'm not as cool as some people. OBVIOUSLY. To be honest, I should really get back to redrafting this stupid thing before I get carried away. Work in an hour, I'll have to rush it. It's only an English essay after all. I dislike English, this is why my blogs are so god damn rubbish :) I'll live.

So does anyone want to do my homework?

BACK TO WORK! Adios :)

It's been a while

"follow your heart and not your mind"

As the title of this blog says, "it's been a while." It's been a while since I blogged. I've been carried away with many things in my life involving MSN, Twitter, Facebook and what not because I'm that sad.

I have said the above quotation quite a few times this week because I think that people should follow their hearts in relationships. If you like someone, you should not let your mind decide what to do but let your heart decide and just go with the flow. Just enjoy the days with that person instead of letting your mind wandering off to all kinds of conclusions.

This blog is pretty rubbish to be honest. Nothing interesting has happened in my life since I last checked. I watched Hannah Montana: The Movie today on the internet because I was rather bored after waking up at midnight. I just hate the way the actors/actresses makes me jealous because they're made to be so pretty. To be honest, I'm jealous of a lot of things. These things because people who are able to sing, or play and instrument really really well, or people who are good at photography or art. I don't know why it made me jealous, but it does.

To be honest, I have nothing else to say. Everything went out of the window when I got out of the shower. It's a shame Will Sharp doesn't blog on here any more. He's moved to Tumblr. He inspired me sometimes, but I can easily read his blog on http://wiiiill.tumblr.com/ once in a while :) I shall get back to blogging as soon as I have something to post about.

Summer's been and gone

I don't know what to think right now. I don't feel myself.

Firstly, first day back at school. I was looking forward to it, until...well the lessons and the rain.

Talking about the rain, I really dislike it. Especially when I washed my hair in the morning. I'm not saying this just because I'm the type of person who wants their hair to be perfect, I'm not. I'm the lazy type to be honest. It's a waste of time to get out of bed 15 minutes early just to wash my hair when I could have a lay in.

When I got back to school, I got my timetable, bla bla bla the usual stuff. I feel ok about my timetable, apart from the fact that I have triple science on a Monday =/ but I'll live and then lunch happened. I found out that most of my Maths class got A* in the GCSE and I felt I didn't do as good as I should have and I felt quite stupid compared to them so I was considering retaking it, but I know it would get in the way of my AS Maths which I don't get a single word of at the moment as it is. Biology - that was a disappointment really, seeing as in the exam I got an overall B but I got a C for Biology. Maybe I didn't revise as well as I should be. Maybe it was a hard paper but again, I felt like I should have done better.

Then...The rain came. Pouring it down 5 minutes before the lesson ended. It was a great time to rain to be honest, sunny beforehand and then raining before school ended and it was just....eugh. So I had to wait for my dad and waited at the Main Gates in the rain. I was getting fed up, it wasn't the first time I had to wait for my parents for a whole 20 minutes. Drenched and cold in the rain. As soon as I got in the car my dad had a go at me for not answering his calls. I didnt answer him. There really wasn't point. I couldn't answer because I was in lesson. End of.

Well I guess this is what happens to me in the Autumn.

Summer - happy times

Autumn - not so happy

Now Summer's been and gone. Hello Autumn

Long Time No Blog

I must admit I haven't blogged for a very very long time. Not because I haven't had the time, or anything like that. It's all because of my laziness (oh and the fact that I did go on holiday for a month).

From the start of the summer holidays till now, I realised it's been a really good one. I know, there must be some ups and downs, but they're mostly ups and I'm really happy about that.

So nothing really happened in my holiday, just the usual every year thing.

I went to Hong Kong on the 21st of July, stayed there in my own little home for a week and "moved" up to Guangdong where my nan lives and also stayed in my own little home...well that home isn't really little but you get the jist. Just to point out, yes I do have two houses in China :) The holiday was supposed to be for visiting family and stuff and quote from my mum "you are not allowed to buy any clothes in China." But being such a shopaholic I went shopping often with my dear cousin. Then there were days where I woke up at half 6 in the morning just to have breakfast with my lovely grandad and then fall back to sleep again afterwards.

On the days of boredom, I would sleep 24/7 because there was nothing to do. It had to be done. There was nothing to do.

Oh yes, did I mention my very very cute little baby cousin? He is very cute indeeed.

Yes, this little baby is a boy! I know he looks like a girl but live with it! I have called my baby cousin Justin. Justin Mo is his name :)

Oh yes, we went to a water park as well. it was so much fun. and then my uncle started to babble about how great China is bla bla bla, but I just don't believe him most of the time. Oh apparently I should take a friend as well, I'm sure it would be fun with a friend, it means I don't have to put up with adults.

Well this is a little summary of my holiday in China/Hong Kong. :)

Oh and a little mention to Linda Dubsky:

I believe God created a wonderful woman. A woman in which was born to make the world a better place. This woman was called Linda. She is like the feminine version of Jesus. I know I love Linda. Do you?

I do love that woman :) and I missed her lots while I went away. Of course I missed a lot of other people as well but yes

Linda Dubsky everyone :)

Well After all this nonsense, I personally think Linda is an actual weirdo :) x

Saweeeeeet!

I have this habit of saying "saweeeeeet" now, I don't know why. Probably because I kept saying "sweet" and thought I would change it a bit. It's always what happens, especially names.

I realised, once again, that I always moan about my food. I moan about it because I either don't like what it is, or it isn't cooked to what I want it to be. Bit picky I know but I guess that's how I was brought up, not blaming my parents. After eating a few mouthfuls of my dinner I had a random thought about little kids in Africa having hardly any food, while I'm here complaining about my food. That was when I started feeling bad and forced myself to eat my food with the thoughts of people in Africa living off hardly any food and dirty water.

I thought I would talk about that first today instead of my day because I knew I would forget it easily unlike other stuff I talk about as it only came to me within a few seconds. So, my day. I woke up this morning feeling quite energetic for some reason. I was thinking it was the sweets I ate the night before but it was all good although I slept for another 10 minutes because I can do that. Games this morning - BRILLIANT. Rounders was fun even though there wasn't a lot of us playing. We won in the end. I thought I batted very well, about 5 rounders overall? It was good and then Maths wasn't too bad. We didn't do any work at all. Instead we discussed what we would do for the Primary School Maths Day so I shall be missing the first three lessons tomorrow morning :) then we also watched the last 20 minutes of a documentary thing about numbers and where they originated from. It wasn't actually that boring, it was nice to see some humour in it. French - BORING, the teacher decided that there was only a few of us as people were doing exams so we went to a computer room. First it was one of the computer rooms in Penfold (a very very old building in school) and found out that it was taken over by people doing History. The teacher then realised that the room was booked in Main Building (another building in school) so we hiked over to the otherside of the building. We then went on a website "www.languagesonline.org.uk" and "learnt" about the future tense which we already know. Lunch, FUNNY! I kept sending messages to Kerry when she was right next to me, it was hilarious and I don't know, it was just funny. PSHE was also boring. We were doing about human rights and me and a friend chose to do public hanging so she found a very long video online about a 16 year old having sex out of marriage and going out with boys in Iran and later was executed as she was apparently 22...It was stupidly ridiculous and extreme but I know that it still happens around the world. LAST LESSON! Chemistry, bleugh. Rates of chemical reactions or something like that although it was mostly copying. Still good :) and then town which was funny with dear Josh, I do love him :D

Overall, my day was good again. Is it me or is it really really really really REALLY cold? Kerry made me miss the first ten minutes of 90210, not impressed. But then again, thanks to Kerry I actually remembered to watch 90210 :D

HAPPY DAYS!

I feel fat

I'm home alone...where is everyone? Everyone as in my brother. The mother and father are both at work for a bit seeing as it's father's day and well I'm guessing the little brother went with the mother I guess, or...he's hiding somewhere for a very long time just to jump out and scare me but oh well. I have also just woken up from a lovely nap after a very tiring day in London :) Saweeeeet! But now I feel quite weird, waking up at around 7 and not in the morning. I was going to blog this morning as I probably wouldn't get round to doing it today, but here I am...blogging...? I have also decided to write about my day first of all, and then add some other things at the end of my blogs if anything pops into mind. So yeah, just to let you know what you will expect in future blogs.

Anyway, my day. I went to bed late and got woken up at half 10, which is pretty early for me seeing as I sleep till 12. So, my dad didn't forget about the change from my piano lesson so as a good girl I thought I would give it back to him with MY own money as I spent it all on food the other day. For a change, dad decided that he didn't want to be greedy today and thought he would give it to me, but being me I thought no, I don't want it. So he took it back, it was then that I realised something. So I took back the money and decided to give it to my brother :) How nice of me :) So hopefully he treats me nicer -_- evil brother these days. An then were were off! I was not appreciating the very long car journey to london but it was worth it. Firstly we went to a restaurant called "Peninsula Restaurant." You should've seen how many people there were waiting outside for a table. It was packed inside as well, but because I have a clever Aunt, she went there early and got a table early while waiting for us to get there. So we ordered food while waiting for my cousin Angela who was getting the bus from her place which tolok forever. She got there when we nearly finished eating. She has the new iPhone, it's LUSH but I prefer my Google phone. Both phone are good though :D and then because I'm very very nice, I have decided that I would pay for the bill which came to £93.40. I must say taking £200 out wasn't a good idea seeing as I didn't really need it. The mother did warn me beforehand, I felt like not listening to her :). But overall, today I ate so much. I ate at the restaurant, ate sweets on the way back, drank a can of tango, and then ate more sweets and I am still eating sweets and about to have dinner. So I have been eating non-stop making me feel fat. Hence my blog title.

After that, we went my Angela's flat, which is quite nice. Small but very nice, as she's just finished repainting it and stuff with an LCD Sony TV :) and LIMITED coke bottles which are really really pretty which is making me want a set but I wouldn't know where to put them. There is just too much stuff for such a little person :) and then we were off again to maidstone which is where my Aunt lives. We only went there for a few seconds to collect some stuff. I HAVE MY TWILIGHT BOOKS BACK! I did miss them quite a lot, they're going back on my shelf and I also have my twilight DVD back along with a Slumdog Millionaire DVD which Angela gave to me :D and then back to Folkestone. I, then, fell asleep in the car. I got home and decided, fuck it (excuse the language) I'm going to bed and woke up at 7 which is several hours sleep not caring that I wouldn't be able to get to sleep tonight. So yeah, I woke up at 7 and decided to blog.

After this morning, I have realised that money isn't everything, and that I could still survive without money, maybe a little but not a lot. I could give money out and not care if they return it or not. I could give a hundred pounds to my brother without caring or wanting it back. After today, I know it sounds a bit weird, I have become more open minded about things and it's changed my attitude towards things even from a day. Like today, I payed a bill for £90 odd pounds and didn't even care. My dad even tried to pay £50 but I still refused. But I have also realised that even though I don't really care about money, I still need the useless technology around the house such as my laptop and phone. As my mum says "It is your second life basically" because I use it so much and I cannot live without them.

So overall, money isn't really that important. You earn money, you use money.

"This is not a weekend"

There are many bad things about today, and I will list them:

1. It was boring

2. I hate hayfever with a passion

3. Not enough sleep

4. Work

5 My legs actual kill!

6. I closed my internet accidentally while I was blogging and wrote LOTS. After making several attempts I realised that it was saved automatically. NOT IMPRESSED.

Apart from that there was nothing wrong with today...Well when I say that I can come up with another reason for why I didn't like today. This was because everyone was a Lydd Club Day having fun so no one was in town and if they were in town then would be at the beach getting drunk. Sad!

I don't know about you, but I think that getting drunk every week at the beach is really pointless. Firstly, it is a waste of money. Secondly, you would forget everything, and that would be your life wasted. And lastly, I don't drink so I would have this point of view. But yeah, town was boring. Seeing as I'm talking about town right now, I think I will talk about my day again. Piano lessons - hayfever, a lot of sniffing and bad piano playing as always. Town - cold, boring...well it wasn't really that boring. I'll talk about that later. So, I got into town and dragged my mum to go to superdrug to buy me some hayfever tablets because I was actually dying, and then ran off towards the bus station. I saw Bella, bless her. She was a sales person :) so I thought I would be nice to help her with some leaflets saying "Zen Kafe" on it. After an hour we gave out all the leaflets bla bla bla. Seeing as I had nothing to do after that, I called up Annaliese who was at the leas at that time and then I bumped into Josh :) - BRILLIANT! So I was with Josh for the rest of the day - the reason why it was quite fun and not as boring as it would've been down the beach. So yeah, a little mention to Josh. He's such a little "knitting freak" although he was crochet-ing at that time which I thought was pretty impressive. Oh yes, I mustn't forget dear Gavin, they're so funny bless them. So yeah, "This is not a weekend" comes from Steven, or Stephen. I don't know how to spell his name. This is because it didn't feel like a weekend as no one was in town unlike other saturdays.

And then came work. I was late again, obviously. It was tiring, I was hungry, I HAD COKE :D and ouch! My feet! This little "scene" links back to the other blog about blank moments and my story about Kerry. I told my mum I wanted something for dinner, so she was like ok. Next minute, she forgot it and was like what?! Then I asked her again about something else, she said yes and once again, next minute she said "what?!" forgetting once again. Good times!

This is a totally random subject compared to the paragraph above, but this also links back to my blog about blank moments. I had so many of them again today. I was in KFC with dear Josh and I was planning to say ALL these things after he finished talking. But knowing Josh, he babbled for wayyy too long for me to remember all this stuff. On top of that I was laughing my head off as well and commenting on what he was saying. But still I managed to forget what I was going to say. So yeah, have to love blank moments. And now because I attempted to write my blog over and over and over again, I have now forgot what I was going to say again.

Oh yes, I remember. Guess who I saw? :D Josh Rawlings and Alex Lound. I was sooo hyper when I saw them again. Oh I do miss them dearly even if I did see them again today. Especially Alex, I haven't seen him for yonks. He is one of the loveliest person I know.

After writing that paragraph, it made me realise (again) that the people who I used to hang around with are just normal friends. But when I don't hang around with them anymore for the past year, I actually miss them quite a lot even though they are still friends. But the thought of not seeing them for so long makes me miss them even more and seeing them today made me realise that I am very lucky to have friends like them and friends in general, otherwise I wouldn't know what I would do. I know that I lose friends and gain friends and that I can get closer to someone or become distant from someone. But it is those distant friends that I miss the most and wished I can somehow talk to them more. But that's lifeee.

I was also going to mention something else, but I have also forgot seeing as THE BROTHER has turned on his music on full blast which is making me really annoyed which means making me feel really forgetful. This is also because that I am really tired but thought I better blog before Will makes me :) So this shall be it for today and will carry on blogging tomorrow and I hope that tomorrow will be good.

Remember, don't take your friends for granted.
