Had a good week :)

Ahhh there's just so much study going on for HSC right now and i need an escape! Thank goodness for blogging :)

Today i had so much fun at work; i absolutely love my job. Jason wasn't there though because he was sick and in the hospital :( I really hope everything is ok and that he gets better soon! He is seriously so much fun to work with and I think it's so funny how he always says "Naaat, why can't you be Asian?!" LOL. I hope he gets better and makes it to work next week because he was supposed the bring the topic of the day today! Anyway. Today i got so much practise making coffees! I made so many that when i close my eyes i just see the coffee grinder, the milk twirling around in the jug and all the patterns i want to make. I am actually quite proud to say that i've perfected my hot chocolate :D It's so exciting! Man i love my job.

So for english right, one of my related texts is an advertisement from a Dove campaign for real beauty (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHqzlxGGJFo&list=FLdhRwTz8RBHkRQO1wXpNwzg&index=7). The first time i watched it, i was horrified. literally. It was pretty confronting to realise that all the advertisements we see around us are idealistic and encourage us to be something we can never be; we can't just photoshop ourselves before we walk out the door every morning! The media tells us who to be, and it's not even real. It's kinda scary but i guess that's how they get people to feel the need to buy their products. Anyway. Just watching this has made me grateful that i accept myself for who i am, and don't have to hide behind make-up, or get caught up in a always-conscious mindset filled with worrying about what i look like and what others think of me, constantly trying to meet the world's expectations for me.

I just finished eating dinner and i'm rolling my left-over peas on the floor and james, my kitty cat, is chasing after them and eating them. it's sooo cuuute! This is us two (isn't he just the cutest kitty out?!)

Ohh, and on tuesday i went out with a friend to watch "Abduction" right (with Taylor Lautner playing the lead role--which is not the reason i went to see it... :P) and it was ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES I'VE EVER SEEN. I absolutely loveed it, even though Kozlow was the shiftiest dude out; he really creeped me out because he looks like a pedophile :'( ...

Anyway, there were so many things i initially wanted to write about, but they seem to have escaped my mind. I've had a good week :) I'm really happy with all the things i've accomplished.
