New Zealand is coming up to a whole new year in 10 minutes! (Ignore the time of the blog, it's actually 11:58pm) Then all you others will follow up because we lead the world. :D

I have to give a BIG Thank You to my Santa Crystal for my awfully sweet (albeit embarrassing) gift, dubbed "The Rilla Book". I love it and I'm definitely doing Secret Santa 2009 again! This design was my Secret Santa gift to Emma if you're curious. I spent quite a lot of time into it too! :o

Oh. Fireworks outside. New years. HAPPY NEW YEARS!!! *sigh* Work tomorrow morning. *throws another fit*

If and when I ever grow up

Living with the parents, I obviously (tend to) go with the family rules and habits. But there are so many little things I want to have when I can eventually have my independent life (let alone the big things like a mansion-apartment and Porsche). So if and when I ever "grow up", I shall get myself:

I'm sure I'd be coming up with more soon. But grr I want them now! *off to shower*

Law Ball 2008

I thought the theme for our Law ball this year sucked—"Ball of Zulu", a Safari theme. Not elegant and classy at all! But I must say, it turned out to be the best ball I've ever been to!

How it's different to the previous high school balls I've been to:

  1. All the girls were better dressed for some reason.
  2. No partner this year. :P Don't have enough guy friends in law. -_-
  3. Rather than looking at young, childish girls and boys, now it's maturer ladies and gentlemen.
  4. Our high school used to hold balls at the Auckland museum and the train station with bad-ass food. But the Law balls are sponsored by large law firms so we pay a lower price for a grand hotel and high quality food.

Three-course dinner beginning with the best smoked salmon entree I've ever had, moved on to an eye-fillet steak main, and finished with a luxurious dessert plate!

Best-dressed guy no doubt!

The gorrrrgeous girls of the night. :P Indoors and outdoors!

And probably the best I've looked all year with my highly-complimented feather fascinator. :D *is being vain and self-conceited*

First time I tried red lipstick all year and now I really like it. So I've moved on from the baby high school stuff, and uni is definitely better now. :P

Well except... When it comes to exams. I have lots of things to say, but I don't have the time to say, so if I blog any time more between now and 13 November, they'll have lots of phone camera pictures and little writing. No objections? And by that time I hope Obama would be the new controller of the world.
