Ugh, I hate it when my entries somehow gets deleted. Oh well.
Well basically NOW it’s 2:05 in the morning, and I’m still watching the same George Sampson Youtube videos as I have the past week. I swear, I’ve seen this one video of his breakdancing at LEAST 20 times. Never gets old.
This is basically just a fangirling post over George Sampson… just to keep a memory of these times when I was actually fangirling over a guy younger than I am -____-…
I suppose this all started after I watched that amazing Susan Boyle video of her audition. She deserves the attention that she’s getting. I even like her new look after her makeover in that was released today. But no kidding, people teared up watching that video. Her voice is definitely very powerful.
Back to George Sampson… he auditioned in 2007 when he was only 14! But he didn’t make it through to the semi-finals that year. However throughout the year, he trained harder and auditioned again in 2008 when he was 15. He was so much taller! He is too cute for words.
Here’s his first audition in 2007. I thought he was the cutest thing alive!
Next year though, he got better (and taller) and audtioned again. This time he passed through everything, and WON! *kyaaaa* **hyperventilates* It was the same year that 2 person Michael Jackson/Indian dance group Signature got to the finals. I remember watching the finals and wishing Signature won, but now my thoughts have changed! I'm sure glad George Sampson won! Here's a video from his second audition. He's too adorable >____<
Heeeheeahaaa, on a funnier note, I watched these videos so much, that I even had a dream about George Sampson the other night. What a good night :D. I hope it happens again! **sigh** if only I could dance like that. But it's kind of too late. George Sampson's like, still 15....
After the competition, he did a whole bunch of stuff, one of which is this music video. He's so cute and I love ths lyrics, it suits him for his age. This song's called Headz Up.
Oooh, another one of his songs that I really like, is this one called Get Up on the Dance Floor. I still can’t believe he’s only 15…**jawdrop**
I really hope this isn’t the end for George Sampson. I’m hungry to see more of his dancing moves! Kyaahaaa~~

Just spent over half an hour making this entry look all nice only to realize that these videos will probably be taken down within the next year :(
I LOVE GEORGE SAMPSON~~~!~
I remember hearing that Dev Patel (from Slumdog Millionaire) was in a hit teen tv show...so I came across it on DC++...and decided to give it a try. I'm SO glad I did. :D:D
The main guy, is the guy from About a Boy, with Hugh Grant. He was so cute and innocent back then. But now he's this GUY! Wow....
Basically Skins is a show about teens in Bristol, UK, and every episode it follows a different teen and their problems/story. I just love it because of the characters, and how likeable they are. The show makes Gossip Girl and the O.C. look like shit. (But I still love GG)
Just from this one show, I've learnt a lot of British slang words, like spliff for weed. Or safe for alright. I just never tire of watching it over and over again. One thing I definitely was shocked about was the amount of sex scenes and nudity in the show for a TEEN show. Made e realize that television censorship standards are definitely different across the globe. They also supply the word 'fuck' for 'hell'. At least over 50 times in a single episode.
I've watched half of the episodes from the new season with the new cast of SKINS, but it's such a disappointment. Although I like the fashion style of one of the characters, I can only find bad things about every character.
Here are some pictures to remember SKINS series 1 and 2 for the future.
I know samosas shouldn't even cost a buck, but I paid FIVE BUCKS for ONE???
Stupid university CAF food, what the hell are you thinking, selling us crappy samosas for $5 each.
And it wasn't anything special either.
Ohhhhmy GOD.
Today I saw ROBERT PATTISON IN REAL LIFE at Twilight LIVE@MUCH MUSIC ~~~~!
Well, AND Kristen Stewart, Rachelle Lefevre, and Nikki Reed.
But that was one of the most exhilerating things I have ever been to ... I'm still mulling it over in my head at the craziness of it all.
Where to begin... well, I guess it goes all the way back to when we FIRST found out that the TWILIGHT STARS WERE COMING TO CANADA!! I knew at that moment that we would TOTALLY come down from uni to see them - how could we not. It was originally me, Atirha, and DK, but in the end, DK couldn't come because of something else she had planned....too bad :(
So the day started off like this: I had a hair appointment at 9:30, and Atirha was met me at the hairsalon, after which my mom drove us to the train station. We got to the main station, took the subway all the way to karaoke. Well, first we bought stuff to eat from our favourite cafe(buahah, CORN CHEESE and SPICY RICECAKES!). We brought those to the karaoke place, ate them while we sang. (The dude at the karaoke place gave us xtra time ;) ). This was probably about 12:30.
So we ended up singing until prety much 3:00pm. We took the subway all the way to Muchmusic, well, not really. We got off at a station, started walking in the WRONG direction in the rain (West, not East), and then took the street car BACK to the right direction.
Even when we arrived, the place was packed. Like we were almost too LATE for it. Believe it or not we were more than 2 hours early for the show. By this time, the rain had gotten heavier, we were stepping in puddles, but were totally pumped for the show to start.
First we stood at this front area right in front of the place they would get out of their limos and walk into the studio. But we realized, that would only be good for a one-time glance at the stars, so we moved over to the crowd in front of an open window of the studio where the stars would surely come out to greet the fans. Me and Atirha stood right behind this enormous lightstand (apparently called a scaffold) which we used as a ladder to see closer into the studio. Well, not until the security guards started yelling at us to "GET OFF THE SCAFFOLD!" - - - Well, it WAS in our best interest to stop climbing that thing, since the people in front of us were leaning against it as we were pulling on it. So it was almost like we were trying to kill ourself, because if that stand came down, we'd surely be in the hospital by now, and I would not be able to type anymore.
Anyways, we kept climbing the scaffold regardless. As long as it gave us a better view of ROBERT PATTINSON, we were willing to do anything. Ice rain was pouring tremendously, and we were too cold to care whether we were going to get hypothermia the next day. It was getting closer and closer to 5:30, and all the fangirls were getting restless. Since we were on QueenSt, we were right on the sidewalk beside the road. The program starts. Sarah Taylor starts saying how they're in their limos RIGHT that instant, and with one glance to the road, we saw this enormous SUV-limo thing, and we started freaking out. They were in THAT limo!!!!!!
We look back on the screen, and the next thing you know, they're getting out of their cars, and the crowd goes wild (us included). I've never screamed so hard in my life, honestly. But it's not something that's controllable at that state. It was the craziest moment I've ever experienced, being in a group with so many like-minded fellow Twilight-worshippers. It was a seriously magical moment.
From then on, I'm pretty much in a daze, just staring up at the plastic-covered screen, where there's a live feed of exactly Robert Pattinson was doing, less than 50 feet away. Soon thereafter, they arrive inside, on the funky white couches, and start the interview. To be quite honest, I do not remember even half of the interview, because the effort we both put into trying to get a better view of the main stage was quite exhausting. All we could think of was "can you see him can you see him??!!", endlessly climbing on the scaffold, but at the same time sneaking a peak over my shoulder to make sure the security guy didn't see us climbing too high.
The most beyond-amazing-bawl-worthy moment of that day was when Rob and the crew came out to OUR window, and started signing autographs, and taking pics. We were SO FREAKING CLOSE to him...it was unbelievable. I SAW ROBERT PATTINSON LIVE!!!!!!!! He was just as handsome, as rugged, as chiseled as any of the pictures of him I'd seen so many times online. Kristen Stewart's legs seemed a mile long. The camera sure must add ten pounds, cause Kristen looked like a stick.
After that, they went back onto the funky couches, a bunch of random interview stuff happened, and it was over too soon. Many people trickled out of their positions from the front of the fan-area, to which me and Atirha shoved our way past, until we were at the very front. Unfortunately, by that time, the show was over....Rob and TwiCrew weren't returning :"( :'(....
By that time, we began to realize the extent to which we were soaked in rain/ice water. Eventually we pulled away from the MAGICAL PLACE and headed to the nearby Second Cup where we both got hot drinks. I took off so many layers, but the rain beat me...it soaked right to my undershirt. Not to forget, my hair blow-out was ruined by the water, and flat because of my hat. On our trek back to the subway station, we experienced yet another magical moment... we passed by the MuchMusic parking lot, where there were a bunch of big black limos we'd seen earlier. We thought maybe, just maybe we might get a glimpse of them again. We stood there, while some big security guard tried to keep us from entering the lot. We "think" we saw some people get into the car, but the damn umbrella was in the way. What we DID see however, were people taking pictures with flash in the car. Our "magical moment" was salvaged by our one belief that we were the only ones who saw Rob/the TwiCrew take pictures of eachother.
I don't know how I ended up outside MuchMusic that day, but ever since I'd even read the words "Twilight Cast at MuchMusic" on the Twilight-fanwebs I frequent, without a doubt, I knew I was going to be there, no matter what - rain or hail, thunder or shine. If I could call anything a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, that would surely be it. 
OMG I'm so bad at making these pictures fit nicely in my Eljayy, but who cares, I'm only keeping these here for memory.
The best one is saved for last.
Business was slow as usual, 1 to 2 tables per hour...some none at all. I'm just floating around, doing what I'm told, and cleaning up after the customers leave. After an Asian couple leave, I notice they left their desert on the table, half of it practically untouched.
I'm drooling.
I'm staring at this desert. Clearly I'm famished since it's already the afternoon, and I haven't eaten since I arrived at 11:00. I've tasted the desert before, because my boss gave me a sample several days ago... it is what you call a desert you could dream about.
So I'm cleaning up the dishes thinking, "perhaps I can fork off the edges where they haven't touched with their forks." So I take the dirty dishes from the counter to the back of the kitchen where the dishwasher and sink are, with the target desert piled in there carefully aswell, along with a clean fork that I swiped from the cutlery table.
I've reached the back, and I've started scraping off the food from the other plates into the garbage, carefully trying to plan this super-brilliant plan of mine. I'm thinking "is it possible, without anyone noticing?"
There's the cook, standing not 10 feet away from me, looking down and cutting something.
There's my boss, across the kitchen, and in the cashier area a long way down. But it would still be obvious if I were making arm motions that would suggest I am eating something.
So I keep the desert in the pile of messy dishes near the bottom as I finish setting all the dirty dishes in the sink...and I discover that it is finally chow time.
I sneakily look to my right side, making sure that the cook dude is working on whatever he's working on...I turn my back, dig my fork on the side of the plate where the customers didn't touch the food, and let loose.
It was thrilling, like an animal pouncing on its prey, or maybe that's going too far, but that's how it felt. Like an animal, I only had a few seconds to scarf down what was allowed to be touched on the plate - make a quick and clean getaway before anything is disturbed, anyone noticing.
I know the first impression of me would definitely be a pig. If I were to justify my actions, I would've simply said, "we're all humans, related somehow anyways". This act wouldn't even make the list of the grossest things I've done in my life, but it would definitely rank in the upper numbers of the category "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING".
The sweet taste of the desert was short lasting however, after the second bite, I heard my name being called, only hearing it the second time it was repeated - from the cook in the kitchen. I turn my face around, with my cheeks filled with dessert, the most stupidest look pasted on my face, staring straight at the cook.
If that moment were snapshopped into an eternal photograph, it couldn't look any more self-explanatory.
The photograph would look like this:
1) Girl in the kitchen beside the dirty dishes and garbage can with a plate in her right hand with a desert, and a fork in the other. Flies buzzing overhead.
2) The girl' face is the image of a porker - 2 cheeks stuffed as far as it will go with evidently the desert in her right hand.
3) The cook staring at the girl, mentally putting the pieces together in his head. He stares at her for a moment too long.
4) The girl stares back at him, rooted to the spot.
By this point, I am screaming in my head, but I don't remember much of what I was thinking. The heavenly taste of the desert was long gone, and my mind was spinning. It was very much as if 10 people were talking to me at once, and I didnt' know which voice to listen to. Mechanically, I turned around, stopped for a moment, dropped the desert in the sink, but not before scraping the desert into the garbage. This entire time (roughly 5 seconds) I do not know if the cook was looking at me or not, but one thing I'm sure, is that he was re-evaluating his impression of me.
If I were to assess the marginal utility of my desert experience, it would surely be unbalanced by my mortification and chagrin.

So today was just another day at work...same as it's been for the past couple weeks.
10:40 AM = leave house, walk to Thai restaurant
10:55 AM = arrive at restaurant, begin RESTAURANT OPENING DUTIES:
- Turn on OPEN sign/lights/computer/TV
- Check bathrooms (check if garbages are emptied)
- Set up fridge stuff on kitchen counter
- Put ice cooler on counter and make sure there is ice
- Cut lemon (actually lime...they call it lemon for some reason)
- Set up tables for LUNCH
- Get cash register money from hiding place, and count money
- Check if cutlery/utensils/cups/glasses/pots are clean
- Plug in electric pot
- Turn on Radio (it's always on CHUMFM...bahaha...never mind the relaxing beach music)
- Start business day on card machine
- Put water in pitchers
- Clean windows/tables
- Fill up fridge - pop/water
12:00-1:00 PM = One of the 'senior' employees comes in to watch over me and the cooks, and tells me what to do
1:00-5:00 PM = Floating around, serving the 1-5 customers that come in, business is slow in the afternoons, and extra points when it rains (minus 20 customers at least). Sometime between these hours, I take my "break" which is 30 minutes of scarfing down the food the cook makes for the staff (namely, me, himself, and the 'senior' employee).
5:30-8:00 PM = Dine-in as well as Take-out customers increase, to the point of not being able to stop and think. They just keep coming and coming. Fortunately I work in a restaurant where respectable people dine and the majority of them are polite.
9:00-10:30 PM = Dine-in customers start leaving, I start cleaning (which includes brooming and mopping the floors). After that, I start CASHIER CLOSING. (TBQH, if I knew there was any accounting involved in this job, I would not have applied for it). Fortunately, after a couple of attempts, I've stopped making mistakes, and I'm more confident at handling the restaurant finances.
10:30-10:45 PM = Everyone eats their "dinner" (all employees are given free meals...yay -__-, did I expect any different?). I walk home, after declining at least 3 offers of drives home (practically every day).
11:00-11:30 PM = Go online, and start talking to Atirha or Sylvo who're almost always online.

sleepy
BREAKING DAWN came out today, but I'll wait until that dazzzzzzle person uploads it online.
TWILIGHT is too amazing to describe in words alone. It must've been fate that I stumbled across the trailer for the movie on a HARRY POTTER fansite ... all because Robert Pattinson (who plays C-Digg. from HP is in it). One look at the trailer started a domino effect of fan-girling over the best book to fan-girl over (Harry Potter IS NOT fangirl material - sorry JKR, but you cannot write romance for beans). Never have I been so proud of myself as now for starting my own TWILIGHT ARMY ;) I'm glad everyone that I've suggested it to LOVES it as much as I do (excluding Sylvo, but she ain't count - you'll be sorry one day for calling him EDMUND and gay).
I ♥ EDWARD SO MUCH IT HURTS
I think Summit Entertainment's main purpose is to make girls go insane by making us wait until DECEMBER for the movie to come out ... They strategically release completed scenes from the movie every now and then to make us THIRST for more.
I have never anticipated a movie as much as this. Well, Harry Potter was one thing, but this is something much more different. (Although comparing it to Harry Potter is just about ridiculous).
Robert Pattinson is too perfect for the role of Edward ... and I can't believe Kristen Stewart is the same age as me playing Bella. Teen actors these days ...
That'll keep you going for another day.

I cut my hand again today, this time, I was peeling mangos. Last time I was cutting limes, and I slipped like three times, and you have no idea how sharp restaurant kitchen knives are....but I kept cutting my fingers, and it bled SO much....like nonstop.....then today i was peeling a mango with a seemingly safe mango-peeling knife....... but there's probably no such thing as a "safe knife" in my world, cause I ended up cutting myself again, this time on the thumb.
My boss doesn't let me cut fruits anymore.
Courses taken: Math, Economics, I.B.
Courses being taken: History, English, Philosophy
I've never had so many similar assignments at the same time. So much to read - first there's English with Siddhartha, as well as the Independent Study Unit with the Crocodile Bird. Then there's Philosophy, where I have to choose a book and analyze the philosophical aspects of it...hmmm, what to choose. On top of that, there's History, with a massive group presentation that we've just received today, as well as an essay assignment on Imperialism. But somehow, I'm not as put out as I was last semester. No doubt it was the math...
But what I am looking forward to this week is the new J-dorama being released tomorrow (in Japan) called Last Friends. It stars Ueno Juri, Eita, Nishikido Ryo, and a whole bunch of other people who's name I don't remember. But it looks like an epic drama...seriously. The plot revolves around several 20-something year olds and their struggles in life. One of which is domestic violence, and guess who's going to be breaking furniture? Nishikido Ryo of all people! **audience gasps**
Another drama, that I'm sort of anticipating is Zettai Kareshi, based on the manga series by Watase Yuu. I'd read the manga a long time ago - never finished it...but it was definitely the embodiment of SHOUJO MANGA. Maybe that's why I have such a negative view on it now...
Manga I've read recently? Looks like I haven't even mentioned Nana or Paradise Kiss on here...geez, how long was I away from Livejournal? There was also Antique Bakery...a great SHOUNEN-AI themed manga about 4 men who run a cute little bakery. Oh yeah, not to mention MARS, a manga about a motobike rider, and an artist...I'd even watched some of the Taiwanese drama, but to disappointment.
If there's anything else that I've forgotten, it's probably about university. If anything, that entry'd be too big for today, but I can safely say, that I'm right where I want to be at now.

I have also just learned, from yesterday's dentist appointment that my wisdom teeth need to be taken out. Dun dun duuuun!

hungryThis past week has been very weird around the school...there was terribly news on Monday, and it hasn't really been the same. The morning announcements have become gloomier, and random teacher meetings in the amphitheatre have made school an ominous place to be. The shock of Monday's news reverberated around the school, and touched even those who didn't know Mr.-------. Numerous times, I saw the story on TV, and even a camera crew on school property. The news will fade just like any headline story, but he'll never be forgotten at our school.
At one of my job training days, I met with a girl named Ruby. She was the same age as me, so we were talking about what to do in the future. She said she had no idea, so I said my thought on journalism. She actually said that I looked like the 'journalism student' type. I've never been so flattered, EVER! It added fuel to the fire of my desire to actually pursue that path, but I'm still pondering about it. Practically daily.
So let's see, highlights from this past month. Summer school (world issues) started July 5th, or something, and ends tomorrow, August 3rd. It's been a good course, with good people, and I made friends from other schools. Throughout the whole course I've been mentally slapping myself for not taking summer school earlier. It's a good experience to meet people from other schools and share stories and hear stuff from other people. I even met up with Jeena from junior high school...and we took the bus home a couple of times. Good times. I met Becky, who also goes to the same school as the summer school (weird!) and she taught me how to make a couple of things. Thanks BECKYY!!
Right, and the CAMPING TRIP! YAH! Too many memories, since we only see eachother a few times a year. Kelpy lake (SCREAMS), SMACK THAT!, boob party, Mr. Quiet Time!! Too many memories!
RIGHT! Harry Potter has indeed come out. And I'm not even half-way through it yet (don't get mad, it's this summer school stuff that's been keeping me behind!). Fortunately, I haven't come across any people who have spoiled it for me, or any websites that have spoiled anything. THANKGOD. I'm trying to savour ever sentence in the book, seeing as it's the last one. **tear tear**, but JK did say that she may release a Harry Potter encyclopedia *hurray!*
More later...
Oh, and NINTENDO DS MANIA!! Have you seen the gadgets kids have lately? I feel like such an old-timer!
My friends actually made my birthday cake :) it was a doughnut cake inspired by a necklace that I own. I'll post pictures of them both.
^^ Here's the cake....tasted as yummy as it looks. It was my breakfast for several days after.
^^ Here's the necklace that they were inspired from. I could taste the meaning in the cake!
This summer will probably be one to remember for all Harry Potter fans. Never has the book and movie come out in the same month. Had this happened when I was 13, I would probably explode. I feel guilty that I've lost the passion I had for Harry Potter back when I was in grade 8. But I guess I've grown up and moved on. Still, I'l NEVER say I've stopped enjoying Harry Potter and that I'm no longer a fan. Secretly, at heart...I'm always a #1 fan.
Lately, there've been a number of photocalls and press conferences, and interviews with the stars. The thing with Harry Potter, is that people my age, are practically the same age as the actors, which is why my generation can easily relate to the stars, or even idolize them. I don't think I've ever had anything like that before. When Harry Potter first came out, he was MY AGE! MY AGE MAN!!!! That's probably why I thought I could hang out with the stars and be all buddy-buddy friends some day!
But I love seeing pics of Emma, Dan, and Rupert, cause they're just so cool, and are just like us, really! 
^^ Matthew Lewis looks like some sort of ROCK STAR! OMG! And Katie Leung is still pretty as ever. 
Is that DAN, playing CRICKET?? ASMAAA LOOK!

I just watched Death Note episode 35 today (OMGONLY2MORE), and it was the episode with Matt's epic death in it. I was actually on capslock_dn first, saw the pic with Matt in it, fangirled like hell, then watched the episode. I swear, as soon as I saw his car, **OMGMATTNOSEBLEEDFANGIRLED**.
It wasn't long until it was the part where the Takada-bodyguards started chasing him in car **EPICCARCHASE** and I couldn't believe how hot his driving was. The background score was awesome aswell, maybe they made that piece just for Matt's part 0_o.
Oooh, ok now for some imagessss, because I just can't get enough of him.
I don't think anyone can drive a car as cool as he does....
Awww, he's leaning over the steering wheel! Ok... the worst part of this scene, was the seiyuu for MATT. It's some old OLD guy....does not match his youthful appearance ONE BIT!!
Look at his cute smirk....just makes you melt....even if he IS a little evil....
Furthermore, I've become a super-fan of Mello's friend, Matt (do you remember him?)
Both me and Atirha have fan-girled day and night about him.
Although he's only a minor character... AND an anime, every time I see a picture of him - I wanna jump his bones.
What really sent me over the edge, was when we found out that he's the same age as us. Oooooooh my god.
Lately I've been visiting

capslock_dn a lot lately. ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
I've also been looking at a lot of Death Note fanart, cause they are just so good - I wish I could draw like that. We were by my locker, I think....Atirha was there aswell, and I didn't want to go home to an empty house, so I just invited Atirha to my house! And she called her mom, and she said yes, so she came!! Ahh! It was so fun!?
We walked for about half an hour to the bus stop by the other school, then took the bus to my place. When we got home, we spent most of our time in the basement, seeing as that day was about 30 degrees celcius...hot hot hot.
I turned on the TV and turned to NHK cause I knew Atirha would like that. AMAZINGLY, Shounen Club was on TV....(I think it comes on every Friday)...so we started watching that, then there was an interview with Ohno, to which Atirha went crazy (he's from ARASHI).
We ate apples, ate some snacks, I let her read my magazines and stuff, and before you know it, ARASHI the entire group, was performing a song on Shounen Club?! I think we screamed at that....and watched them dance and sing. They first sang Love So Sweet, then .... We can make it!
It was either a big coincidence, or we were just really lucky, that I invited Atirha to my house that day (first time too! she'd never come to my place before). I mean, ARASHI's Atirha's favourite J-pop group...and the chances that they'd be on TV when I invited her there....It'll probably never happen again :(.
After that, we went outside, went on our trampoline (hahaha, Atirha fell many times, and complained of a BRUISE?), then my sister came home, and we all played badminton.
Atirha's dad was supposed to come pick her up at like 5:00.....turns out that according to her dad, 5:00 means 8:00. But it was fun anyways....if she left at 5:00, we wouldn't of been able to have that much fun.
