Woah, stressed out!

Very stressed out.
There's so many things that needed to be done.
So many deadlines to meet.
So little time, so much to do.
Have to prepare for tutorials, labs, mid-semester tests.
And most importantly, have to catch up.
I'm always behind.
Since forevvverrr.
What ppl do last week, I do this week.
What ppl do this week, I do next week.
How laggy is that?
And it's never ending, the whole cycle.
And what I hate is that what I study this week, I most probably would forget next week.
Such a waste of effort.
And how can we learn so much in just a week?
I want more hours in a day.
I'm spending a lot of time in the library.
Everyday, I think of how to maximize every minute of my time to study/catch up.
And how guilty I feel whenever I wasted any of the minutes just sitting around/chilling to rest.
If others can do it, why can't I, right?
Now my Fridays and weekends are spent primarily on studying as well..
WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
NO LIFE!

Gwen Stefani's The Sweet Escape Tour Concert

Haha, as Joyman has predicted.. I'll blog about the concert. Just got back home from the concert..weee.. screamed till my lungs got punctured (haha, ok, that was exaggerated).

Soo.. was quite late already. Cause today, during the evening, Sue-mae and I went for the first Body Balance class.. it's sort of Yoga, Pilates & Tai-chi rolled in one. We got this Melb Uni sports centre promotion thing where u get to go for any classes (except for official Yoga or Pilates classes) and use the gym, pool, whatever sporting facilities lar AND u only pay $5 for two weeks. It reminds me of the free day pass thing at Fitness Zone in Brunei. But this is for 2 weeks..haha gonna use it to the fullest. Normal membership is $60 per month..dunno if it's worth it or not. Got other classes that I wanna try out : BodyStep, BodyJam, HiphopFunk (i'm currently going to another place for regular hiphop classes, but i'll try this one), TriAthletic (something that looks like dancing..no idea, just try only) and Group Cycling.

Ok, enough of that.. so, we were late right, when reached home, we zoomed to shower and got dressed in half an hour.. impressive leh! haha

Then we three girls went lar to the 'Rod Laver Arena' indoor stadium by tram. So funny man, so many ppl were taking the tram to the place, like every single person keep asking the tram driver whether it goes there. And before another person asks him again, he just kept saying "Yes, going to Rod Laver Arena". So funny.. the ppl get the surprised look when the tram driver answer their question before they even ask it.

Once we reach there, at the entrance, we had to get our bags checked for cameras. What a dumb rule man, no cameras allowed, what the heck?! But sue-mae saw the whole bag check thing from afar, then she smart smart go and put her camera inside the zip of the handbag. HAHA, that's the good thing about girls' handbags, always got a zip at the side. So, secretly, we could bring in the cameras..haha, sneaky aye? Then, we headed right to the Merchandise booth. Bought a green shirt with Gwen's face on it.

When we went to look for our seat right.. omg.. a bit disappointed. We do know we were seated at the side, but didn't know so side and so high up, we were at the last row on top.. sad kan? u know why? Cause the ticket selling person tricked S Chien. Bad arh..the ticket seller! Say it's gonna be really near and all. At least if it's at the bottom part, and it's side, then it's alright..can see Gwen's face clearly..but anyway..no choice :S Nvm lar... But very sayang S Chien's effort for having to wake up early during March/May? (don't remember when already when we bought the tickets) just to make sure we secured good tickets.

Anyway, let's move on...don't dwell on that anymore. Ok, the guest star was Gym Class Heroes. Pretty good live singing I shall say. I like that song, dunno what name, it goes like "badadada badadada badadadabah". The electric guitar guy and drummer guy were cool.

Then Gwen came out.

Gwen: U know what's so fucking cool? it's that all of you guys are here.

Wooo.. yealar as I said, throughout the whole concert, I screamed like a freak. When I sang along, I can't hear my own voice..the crowd's volume drowned it. Which is a weird feeling. Feel a bit like a mute. Loved it when she sang all the songs that got the crowd standing and jumping. ESPECIALLY, for the songs- Wind it up, Hollaback Girl and What you waiting for. The Harajuku girls were cuteeee. They're really good dancers, u know. Like those hip-hoppish kinda dance.

Then there's the lucky fan who got a PICTURE with her when she's on stage. Damn lucky lar, that girl.

gwen: what? u want to take a picture with me?
fan says something
gwen: ok sure (take the camera from her, kneel down and sort of take the picture, but not directly with her....wah, hard to explain!)
This is it, Gwen holding camera, so it's like the fan got her face in the background I guess.

*While taking pic, gwen: ok, we better do this quick, everyone's waiting for us.
All eyes on them, green with envy.

I'll say the concert was awesome! I'll give an 8/9 out of 10. She didn't really dance much. Well, as in choreographed dances I mean. She just dances herself like how a person would move in tune with music. The Harajuku girls and four guy dancers did most of the background dancing. And all the clothes she wears are like glittery!! Shiny, glittery, can't see if it's sequins, but they sure dazzle and shine. Even one of the sporting clothes, like track pants, has a shiny long strip of glittery thing. hahah, I like.. but not like I'm gonna wear it.

Aiyer, then she ran into the crowd in the middle while singing "Cool", oh me god.. those ppl touched her like crazy, but she had a bodyguard following after her, which actually puts his arm around her waist when she's stationarily singing among the crowd..ahhaah looks like molester..wahahha, stupid thinking. Coz she was wearing a really short top and her belly exposed kinda shirt.. and OH MAN, she's got great abs lar, Jealous!

And I'm happy she sang most of the favorite songs! Her vocals were not bad as well. Few weeks back, Sue-mae and I watched a youtube video of her concert which someone recorded (very badly, indeed!) and it made a bad impression on us. When she sings 'Yummy', it sounds like she's talking. So, a bit put off by that. Luckily, her live singing's actually not that bad. Quite good. Especially for slow songs. And I'll always look up at ppl who perform in concerts.. like so tiring man. Jump around, sing sing, dance dance, entertain crowd. And moreover, around the world tour, crazy! And then must make sure can sing well LIVE, most importantly.

PICTURE TIME!!! load patiently,ok?

..

....

........

She was in the middle..haha I can't even spot her in this pic. U try! (Hint: check the spotlights)

*fatface*

Lucky I remembered to bring my mini binoculars. So was able to see her face.

Could even take pics thru it... hahaha.. like a camera's zoom function.

The clearest of all

Singing "the Sweet Escape"

That's about it.

It was not easy to take the pics. Sue-mae tried uncountable times lar!
