Saying my goodbyes
I just came from a debut (or 18th birthday party if you're not familiar with the term). It was cool. I (and about 35 other people) had to speak about the celebrant, and me being me,
I forgot to prepare a speech. Suffice to say I didn't get very good pictures while my hands were shaking with the trauma.
I got a picture with
April (classmate through kinder, primary, and secondary ---
FIVE schools in all). We haven't really talked lately; I guess we're getting so busy. If you're reading this, Pril,
yes, I shall call when we have less tests. :D
I told the celebrant
"Welcome to the club!" In other words, you're 18 now, you're legal. But I'm turning 19 in two weeks, LOL.
The curse of being older than almost all your classmates.On other breaking news,
I'm leaving. For about a week, anyway.
I have big midterm exams coming up, and they've scared me into turning off my computer and studying like my life depended on it. I mean, look at some of my books:
Those are actually just two books about 1500-2000 pages long. I used to get muscle pain lugging them around so I sliced one of the books into three and decorated them myself. :)
Maybe I'll be inspired to study with such pretty covers. Then again, maybe not.
Calculus is also making me nervous.
Yes, that's only one problem. One problem on three blackboards in small writing. I couldn't even get a picture of all the blackboards. This is the class where we all applaud when the problem's finished because one takes an HOUR to do.
This is what nightmares are made of. I came home and slept after this class; I was
that dizzy. WHY CHEMICAL ENGINEERING?
NOTE: I am not shifting, just amusing myself by waxing poetic over my choice of course. :D
Anyway, see you all around some time. When I have the time. Take care!

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
