oh, the wonders of fake tan are marvelous indeed. :) today was rather uneventful, a lazy sort of day to spend the second last day before school. chinese new year and all, it didn't feel very much like it. after church i overate as usual, succumbing to the temptations of duck. lazed around online for abit and decided i absolutely had to get off my bum before i became a walking ball of flobber. i did want to go to optus to check out my z250i phone but it's quite expensive, plan and all. shall see if dad can upgrade his plan and get it for me in singers. XD so we went to the beach. surprisingly although it's a sunday afternoon, st kilda wasn't as packed as i expected it to be. the last time i was there, it was like a human crush of traffic and totally unenjoyable. it's like.. -beach? what beach? all i see are throngs of people! today was a gratifying change. the day was cooling and the salty breeze was blowing. i always thought the beach was overrated, but i think today i finally understand the beauty of it. just sitting on the sand with the waves lapping in gently near you and the breeze blowing around and the bright blue sky with the sun slowly going down above, rays of light filtering through the clouds.. it's a feeling of peace and solitude. the kind that's hard to get nowadays. for those precious few moments, it's just you and the sea. what a moment, right? -interrupted by a stupid seagull. it was observing me with its disgusting beady eyes and trying to hop near me sneakily. i tell you, it was eyeing my bottle of much coveted fake tan. yup. fake tan. back to it, i tell you, it does wonders. when i applied it i thought, i'm so gonna look cheap, like i have no time to get a real tan and no money to get a good fake tan. but hey! it looks good! and real. ahhh :) i am satisfied. XD one more day till school starts. hooray.
