ITS A SATURDAYY~

ITS A LOVELY SATURDAY TODAY COS IT RAINED IN THE MORNING!
andd i got to sleep in! hahahs.
its so rare that it rains on a saturday morning.
i was woken up by the wind that kept blowing raindrops into my room!
so i got up to close the window only to realise the clouds outside were really really dark!
heavy thunderstorm ahead.
i had planned to just stay indoors with a hot drink while it rains heavily outside,
all curled up warmly in my bed reading a book.
my beautiful fantasy disappeared when i realised that it had stopped raining by the time i woke up.
plus, i had no nice rainy-days book to read.
i am currently on this book called bone thief.
its really not bad, but its a thriller,
and the description of the homicide murderer makes it one book which you wanna read when the sun is shining brighty outdoors.
andd, my sister just depleted any available cadburry hot chocolate drink left.

ooooh. meet dave was a good show!
so much better than i expected~
i enjoyed it loads and it was funnier than i thought!
so you all should go watch it!

recently, i've been very into myths and legends.
ever since i've watched the mummy 3,
and heard of that mystical place called shangri-la.
(which is not that hotel at sentosa)
its some place untouched by time or death,
hidden in the Himalayas.
my dad told me there was a book on shangri-la,
and its called The Lost Horizon.
i took interest to it immediately and went online to search for it.
turns out its written by this guy called James Hilton.
andd its about how he discovered shangri-la and so on..
i even tried looking for it in my school library but all i found was this dvd about this guy who went on an expedition to find shangri-la.
typically, all documentaries never ever manage to find the real place.
instead, they twist the myths and say that this "paradise on earth" is actually something to do with the scenery he found there.
he didn't even go and try to search for it.
he just went to the neighbouring temples and all,
which told of the tale of shangri-la too.
guess they all believe it shangri-la as much as they believe in the loch-ness monster.
but all these definitely have a basis of fact right?
i mean, its gotta come from somewhere.
maybe i have just discovered a new interest.
if i ever had the chance, maybe i'll go try find shangri-la myself.
although i thinkk halfway up the snowy mountains i'll be whining to go home already.
i've long learnt that reality cannot be mixed up with what you see on tv.
they make it look so simple but in real-life,
things dun exactly go your way, in fact, they NEVER go your way.

i have a new addiction.
EMILY THE STRANGE.
but that brand is rather expensive.. :(
still, i found an online shop that sells all emilythestrange things,
and am sorely tempted to buy it.
however, i need a credit card.
where on earth am i supposed to find one?!?!?
grr....

alright, back to my show.
i'm now watching a documentary on the queen of sheba.
familiar name, but can't really remember where i've heard it before.
ohwells...
enjoy your saturdayys people ~

[[ takin over my life, but i dun seem to mind. ]]]
