Mid-Autumn Festival

Heres the story,

It's said that in the old old days, the earth once had ten suns circling over it. Each day the suns' mother took one sun to illuminate the earth. But one day all ten suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their heat. The Emperor of Heaven ordered a strong archer Hou Yi to save the earth. He succeeded in shooting down nine of the suns. One day, Hou Yi stole the elixir of life from a goddess. However his beautiful wife Chang Er drank the elixir of life in order to save the people from her husband's tyrannical rule. After drinking it, she found herself floating and flew to the moon. Hou Yi loved his divinely beautiful wife so much, he didn't shoot down the moon.

Another version of the story is that Hou Yi built a beautiful jade palace for the Goddess of the Western Heaven. The Goddess was very happy and she gave Hou Yi a special pill that contained elixir of life and he could use it after he had accomplished certain things. However, Chang Er took it without telling her husband. The Goddess of the Western Heaven was very angry and Chang Er was sent to the moon forever.

/end rant

It's been a while.
I've been lazy. It's really an annoying bad habit.

So ill try stop that hehe...

I've realised throughout this blog, there has been a lot of ranting and anger venting, so i'll try be a tad positive about everything haha.
Although the venting and online anger would make up for me always showing my happy side in reality.
Maybe its not such a bad thing at all?

So what have I been up to since last year?
1) moved into a new suburb~ I'm enjoying living here, made a few friends who are really cool ;)
2) quit my death-trap job at KFC~ instantaneously became a million times happier. woo!
3) got a new job~ so far still loving my job. haha everyone in this suburb is really nice and it makes me happy at work ^____^

4) finally came around to purchasing a puzzle~ although its not 5000pc, its 4000pc. im getting around to doing that. :P

5) booked tickets to see Taylor Swift live at her concert next year! ~ im so excited! teehee -squeals- she's so insanely pretty! no les. haha

6) i've also boosted my alcohol tolerance by 10 fold since last year :)~ also, drunk free, hangover free reputation still holds. :)

Don't hate on me if I end up ranting or venting my anger on this blog. I probably just need to get it out of my system without annoying other people about my problems :)

Craving Dippin' Dots at the moment.
A true 90's kid would know what they are. they used to have them around the city areas and where I used to live. but now they only sell it in Newcastle... so I've heard. :(
oh wells.. ROADTRIP TO NEWCASTLE! :)
