#54: Quick life update

Urgh I'm still so intrigued by my American reader who uses Firefox. Y U no reveal yourself?!

Yeah, got random InsaniTees for my brother and me but look, this blog isn't just to review Qwertee shirts, as much as I would love it to be. The quality's always the same, it's just the design that changes. No pics this time, just wanted to mention that my brother got a Cheshire Cat one, I got Indiana Mouse. After my first InsaniTee experience (the Pokémon tees) I was actually disappointed, but hey, that's the risk of ordering a random (but therefore cheap) shirt. Brown isn't really a colour I like to wear and I'm not a big fan of Indiana Jones (I don't dislike it, just never watched a thing so I never got into it), but it's kinda cute the more I think about it.

Anyway, what else happened in my life in the past month?
Exams mostly. A-Level examinations. All the written exams are now done, I just need to return all my school books and have the final oral exam in about two weeks. But before that happens, I'm going to "vacation". Vacation as in seeing a reeeeeally good friend who lives across the country and going to concerts (together). Like seriously, I'm so excited to see two out of my four favourite bands/singers within two days ♥
Also, remember the date I mentioned? A second one with the same guy happened and that apparently marks now the date we became a couple. As much as I would love going into details... from experience I know that making stuff like this public results in a break-up. Not because of the fact that I shared that, but because I was kinda calling for it. Twitter doesn't count, amirite?
I'll just see where this experience is gonna take me. If it makes me stay here after all, then that's that. All I know is that I really enjoy this despite our differences and that's what love's about, right?

Well, back to doing nothing all day now.

#53: Level of stress > 9000

Easter vacation were so relaxing~! A time during which I enjoyed being lazy and doing nothing at all. In other words, I watched YouTube all day (sadly I mean it in a literal way) and stuffed myself with my Easter chocolate. I've been wanting to catch up with my whole subscription box, but as I couldn't scroll down 2 months of YouTube time, I decided on just catching up with the gameplays of my favourite YouTuber.
I also got a unicorn shirt from Übertee, a subsidiary of Qwertee. Its print is The Last Unicorn, a very important memory of my childhood, so I couldn't keep myself from buying this wonderful shirt.


After Easter, a short wave of panic overcame me. I decided on doing a little research on Australian universities since I wanted to go there; The requirements almost made me cry. Not because they were impossible to meet, no. It was because of the English proficiency test I had to take. Obviously TOEFL was the best choice and taking it on C1 should be pretty easy, especially since I only had to pass with a B, but fuck my life is that shit expensive. 245$ for that test. Despite my optimism about passing, it's such a scarily high number. If I didn't pass, the money'd be wasted.
Even if I passed, I still needed money for the flight and for a lot of other different expenses this life would cost me.
The next morning, all the trouble seemed to be unimportant and I was pretty calm about things. Sure, it was still necessary for me to get a job, but that is and will only be a little hurdle in my life. I achieved far greater things so far.
Enough about the future, what about the present? It's now my last week of school. It's a usual custom for local students of my grade to have a themed week. Everyday has a different topic and we dress up differently during each day and go to school like that. Yesterday's theme was "First Day Of School", means we all dressed up like first graders in elementary school. Of course people kept staring at me like I was some kind of weirdo while I walked to school. Me with my satchel.
Tomorrow's theme is "Rich and Poor" in a special localized theme. You gotta imagine that here people who don't earn enough/are unemployed receive money from the government. That package of money has a certain name and that's our "poor". So, I'm gonna dress up like a bitch with make-up like I fell into the make-up case of my mother. I'm so excited, nobody's gonna expect me to look like that. It's going to be especially funny if I walk into Math class in the morning as the last person like usual. All eyes on me, bitches! lol joke I'm actually avoiding people taking photos of me because I'm afraid of getting published somewhere online.
After that week, final exams start. I'm pretty optimistic about the exams in English and my native language, however, Biology and Geography might become a problem. Studying might do the trick though... In case I overcome my laziness and procrastination~
So yeah, the headline for the blog was irony. I'm too relaxed to stress out now. I have no idea where this relaxation is coming from, but I dig it. Might be my grave though! Get it? Dig my own grave? Ahahahahahaha I suck.

There are actually more interesting stories about my life, such as a certain date I had last Saturday, but for now I prefer not recalling it. It was a first and very spontaneous date, so there was absolutely no romance included. Pretty formal, yet awkward as fuck because of my personality. Working on it though. Or not.
