SOMETHING

Spent the whole day working at Manoukian with Roxane. I think there were more sales people than clients. It was so dead boring but lucky both of us were there so she got to listen to me babble during a full 7 hours (or nearly). We went out with Antoine to a Thai restaurant after that to celebrate Christophe's birthday (who wasn't there). We migrated to the homemade ice cream shop Capoue where Marie joined us in our celebrations. I left a note for the waiter. A reminder of each order we gave in. I wrote "meanie" under the bill just before handing it back.

The miracle of the day: not one but two pictures of Antoine! Everybody clap your hands! Woot! This is dedicated to him, his tupperware car and crappy radio.

This is for Marie, it’s a publicity I received in the post. It makes me laugh.

So here I am sipping on Gazpacho and discovering the first pages of Pigmy. Usually, I would be too absorbed by Chuck Palahniuk’s book to even think of setting it down to have another sip of soup let alone type something out on the computer. Yet, that’s exactly what I’m doing and I’m as bored as hell. I did go out to the swimming pool with Marie, Antoine and Pejman this morning and we had lunch together so I shouldn’t feel lonely right? I even saw Kei in the tram and got news from my parents in Rwanda. I’m in a cuddle mood. It’s my sister’s birthday today and I don’t even get a chance of giving her a great big hug. Hugging through the internet just isn’t the same. I’ve been living with 5 to 20 people these past ten days, 24/7, non stop, no break, no pause. I absolutely loved it and I miss them so so so much right now. I need someone to eat up all my free time.

Do you guys ever have this? When you know how you feel but can’t get in down in words? It’s so rhguidykivgbynu! And that my friends, is frustration.

I’m going back to work tomorrow. Roxane will be there too. I really want to see family, friends and new faces. I feel so isolated.

I’m happy I’ve spent such a great time with these people.

Don’t get scared, I’m only showing gratitude.

I love you guys.

Back from camp! Photos will follow.

Walibi was really fun. I've got stuff to do right now so I'm not going to make this long.

I'm a banshee.

I'm off to camp so have fun people, I'll upload the rest of the photos when I come back (and it kind of scares me I've got so many photos in memory of my camera... I'm scared I'll accidently delete them all). Anyways, bye bye everyone, see you in a few days.

Yesterday, I said something mean about a friend to someone on MSN. The friend doesn’t knowA about this but I feel bad about it. I did mean it on the moment but I was tired and… I’m not going to invent excuses, I just shouldn’t have. God, please forgive me.

I didn’t wake up pissed off this morning but it didn’t take long for something to strike a nerve. Namely, a call from my mum telling me what happened yesterday with the whole family affair. As usual, I only got two sentences of explanation but I got the general idea of the situation and that’s when I flamed up. Someone I respected and cherished did something I would have never imagined her doing. Of course, in her situation, I would have be hurt and in distress too but to take it out on someone defenceless? That’s just plain low; especially when that person is an elder member of your family. It disgusts me. I love them both but she really disappoints me with such behaviour. She’s a responsible adult, not a teenager anymore. Even, I would have never done what she did. It’s just so low, low, low. I hope she learns something out of her way of living.

Things lay low the whole morning during which I got some stuff done for my parents and paid a visit to the manga store that sadly didn’t have the series I was looking for. I did get out of there with the latest XXXHOLiC and Vampire Knight though. I got home and cleaned up a bit before packing up some stuff for camp.

The second blow came after midday when I decided to go visit a friend at her work place as she told me we wouldn’t be able to see each other until Sunday because she got herself a job. I brought along her favourite cake for her four o-clock break, knowing she would appreciate it. I got to the place but no one was at her stand so I asked this other girl I know if she saw my friend today. The girl said yes but she was probably taking her break right now. I decided to wait. I sent her a message asking her if she was working and the answer was “no” which I thought weird, but then, maybe she meant she was on her break so I sent another message asking if she was at her work place and the answer was “not until Monday” which I found weirder because the girl at the work place seemed to know who I was talking about. Finally I sent a last message asking if I could pass by her house. There was no answer for a dozen of minutes until I received a “that won’t be possible today”. What’s happening? I’m sure there’s a good explanation behind it all but sometimes, I just get tired of having to dig for my answers.

So yeah, up till now, today has not been my day. I hope it will get better with the evening.

I’m bored. I should be sorting out my stuff for camp on Monday as I probably won’t be home this weekend but I’m lazy. It took me forever to get myself out of bed this morning which is so not me. I think I got a 5 hours straight night of sleeping. Woot! It’s a miracle.

The worst thing about having an iTouch is the fact that I log into FaceBook, first thing in the morning. Damn sunshine, social interaction and outdoors and give me the internet. I was pretty surprised to get messages from a few cousins in Malaysia this morning and got a bit anxious when they declared it was “family emergency”. I’m still not sure what it’s all about and it’s freaking me out. I hope everything is OK and people will contact me sometime soon about it. I hope it’s just a “we forgot your mum’s phone number and it’s her birthday today”. Let’s cross our fingers.

Another thing I noticed today on FaceBook are Sabrina’s holidays pics. She’s at her house in the countryside with her chicken, goats, ponies and lama. I want to see her lama. It looks so adorable; I want to pet it! And the ponies, of course. I love ponies. I’m a pony fanatic. Wheeee! Sabrina, if you’re reading this, I’m winking at you right now.

I hope your lama isn’t like your cat though. That traitorous beast! He’s a huge fat tortoiseshell with five different colours who drags himself from the dining table to the kitchen chairs the whole day long with that I’m-so-cute-come-and-pet-me face. Most people do pet him and he purrs along then suddenly turns around and bites and scratches for no reason. I don’t like that cat. He’s mean. Well, he’s better than the two Dobermans. I’m never going close to them.

I’m dragging on about Sabs animals right now, aren’t I? Two paragraphs and I haven’t even got to the parrot yet. But well, let’s save it for some other time.

Do I sound bored? I am. Sunday is Walibi day. Walibi isn’t only a kangaroo but also an amusement park here in Belgium. Believe it or not, I have never ever taken a rollercoaster before. I know; I suck. I haven’t done ten thousand stuff in my life and people aren’t letting me forget that. I just wish I’ll get to do all of it with them one day. It’s more fun with friends.

So yeah, amusement park on Sunday. Excited.

You probably don’t care a penny about what I’m saying now. I’m just keeping myself occupied. My computer is a loser. It won’t even let me watch YouTube videos in full. *sticks out tongue* I don’t like you, computer.

But it’s weird because I managed to create a new YouTube account and upload a video.

Don’t ask me why that video in particular, I just wanted to see if it works.

OK, OK, OK, got to get going now. I’m going to my aunt Danièle’s place to get one of my cousins camping bag because I can’t find mine in the garage. I could use a suitcase instead but that’s just bleh. So yeah, logging of now! Love you lovelies! Chus!

I’ll be back for more and editing.

Ouch, I just bit my lip with my cat teeth. I don’t know their real name but I call the bottom teeth opposite the vampire teeth cat teeth. They bit my lip. Not nice. And that Teejel thing the dentist gave me for my wisdom tooth? It tastes horrible! It’s what they use for calming teething babies. They always think I’m younger than I am.

I ended up staying a while at my aunt’s place. We watched my Cousin Emilie’s marriage video. It was so sweet and well done! Can’t rush love, At last, I got a feeling, You’re the one that I want, You’ll be in my heart,… So many good songs to go with the adorable images, how on earth could it go wrong?

I got the bag, it’s huge, Emilie did the Chemin de Saint Jacques de Compostelle with it. She loves her clothes. That’s saying something.

I really wonder what the family emergency is from this morning; my cousin Hwei Xin keeps on sending me question about some phone numbers and it’s getting me stressed out. Someone please inform me here!!!

Breathe in, breathe out. Think of pretty rainbows and fields full of flowers… uh…

Back to the ranting.

Another thing about people who care is that, as usual, some people have to put my choices in doubt. I know it’s great because I get to think about them over again but at times, it gets annoying.

I am not going to do Art studies. As well as I can draw, as well as I make stuff, as good are my creations, I know that studying it will just make me hate it. Art is something that comes naturally for me, a hobby; I don’t want to force myself into dissecting it piece by piece just to get a diploma. I love art too much to do such thing.

I met Bérengère today on the street. She went to Argentina for a year and is starting Medical studies next year. I don’t know; I just felt like mentioning her. It’s a bit weird. You know, she recognizing me and saying hello whereas she used to treat me like shit when we were in first year of secondary school. She changed. For our high school yearbook, I voted her coolest person out of the lot. It makes me happy.

My thoughts are so random; sometimes, I have a hard time following them.

I think I’ll stop here.

Good evening people.

PS: I never watched Iron Man, if you’re wondering.

I'll write in the comments some other day. I'm knackered. [03/07/10]

After some running around with my sister in the morning and a tad of shopping with my mum for the presales and a tennis racquet and shoes for her, I went to the cinema with Anh and Philippe to watch my first 3D movie! It was amazing and Toy Story 3 was just so sweet! I absolutely loved the latino Buzz Lightyear. We had a great time. We hung around a while in town before Philippe had to head back to Waterloo for a friend's birthday.

I just did a wicked game on Massive Music Quizz but forgot to log on my account which totally sucks. I still haven't managed to beat my first registered game on there (what's with this number 69 obsession lately?). It's frustrating when I see Sylvain's score.

He missed one song because he didn't get the artist's name in fast enough. I'm proud of him but at the same time really want to nail him down! Not that that will happen anytime soon. You try beat him ><

I just realised that I missed a day of blogging... this will be up soon.

I had a family reunion this weekend (father's mother's side).

Two hours of driving to the country side. I finally got Ghinzu's latest album and got my CD payer out of the cuboard. Sadly, it didn't want to work anymore.

National roads...

Belgian country side villages have weird names like Gouvy-Lez-Piéton or streets named La Rue D'En Haut and flower boutiques called Eh! Fleurs Moi. We stopped in a small village for a drink and as usual, I got teased around by the servers who made me go all around the restaurant (included behind the bar) to get to the toilets and served me my mum's beer.

We got to the place.

Aunt Catherine from England car's broke down so I spent three hours at the garage translating English-French and helping her out.

Everybody started arriving...

The place we always rent out is fantastic: it's got all facilities including a tennis court, basket ball court and football field but the little decorations around the building are... weird.

The church. I've never visited it.

Went for a walk (writting enthusiasm getting sapped out right now).

My sister, an English cousin and her boyfriend.

Cows.

Before the champagne.

My cousin Loïc, me and my aunt Danièle.

my mum and sister.

Later that evening... I will never ever sleep in the same room as my mum ever again!

I got scolded by my sister and mum about the new shoes I got. They were complaining about how they were too high and hooker-ish they look like but I don't care, I like them. What do you think?

I met up with Anh at the University then Kelly at the Abbaye de la Cambre. I missed Quyen and Sabrina at Flagey because I rushed home to eat and go to see Sex And The City 2 with my sister. It was overly exagerated but good. We had good laughs.

TO BE EDITED: WAITING FOR MARIE'S PHOTOS

I went out with Marie and Roxane again today because they needed to sign their student job contract at Inno and the saleslady proposed me a job during the two first weeks of sales at Manoukian so I gladly accepted. Yeah! Score! I'd like to thank Antoine's mummy for letting us know about these vacncies. We went to McDonalds and eat our hearts out and meet up with Antoine.

We spent some time in a comic book shop than because he was bored and had nothing else to do, Antoine drove each of us back home. He more or less remembered where I stayed from Pejman dropping us back home yesterday. I'm impessed. Can't wait for the seaside tomorrow!

Once again, let's pretend I wrote this out yesterday. I walked with my mum and sister from the university campus all the way to the Place Sainte Catherine to eat lunch then I took a bus back to campus.

Simon taking sun on the lawn. Comments today will be very unconstructive. I'm being lazy once again.

Simon took photos that could make you think some people were going out with others. First victims: Isabella and Philippe.

Next: Sylvain and me.

Ana was spared. (Is it me or am I particularly sappy today... whatever)

I migrated to the Bois de la Cambre where Marie, Roxane, Antoine and Pejman were. Here's Antoine in the shade with a big sweater on. 23°C is freezing, really.

Pejman and Marie going through Roxane's GSM.

Roxane, oblivious. Pejman later on ended up with the contents of a bottle of water on his curls.

We got in Pejman's car with the speakers on loud to hit a restaurant three streets away so we could well.. eat and see the matches. South Korea qualified! Yeah!

We went to the ice cream shop for pancakes as desert.

We paid 9 euros with 39 coins. At first we had 50 but Antoine felt too embarrassed so I exchanged a few. That was my day resumed into a few lines. Good laughs.
