And so she turns the page of a new chapter
Moved to a different site.
I feel sad for ol' ye faithful blogger.com.
I should say something as a tribute, no?
But I can't find the words. These past two years have been memorable.

My first Blog
well, i didn't think i'd actually have the time to create a blog but here it is...my very own blog. well first let me tell a bit about my self. my name is sumi. i'm in Taylors college and i'm studying in the SAM programme. i love college. its a complete transaction from secondary school. the people are different and the atmosphere blows my mind. i've got a great group of friends plus many old friends. i love a lot of things in life. i generally love to be happy but of course life has a lot of trouble in store for me as well so sometimes i'm a grumpy grump. hope you'll bear with me. after all, this is what a blog is for ;)
~best kept secrets are with me~

Two years and 210 posts later, here we are =)
I'll be honest. Having a blog is not that easy. First of all, you lose all rights to complain about privacy for the obvious reasons. Second of all, its not easy to be who you are. Always keeping in mind someone is always reading your blog. You have to watch what you say and write as if the world is reading your blog. As such you conceal your most intimate feelings; what you really think; rather you succumb to watering down your real thoughts because you're afraid of what people might say or think about your opinion. Everyone does it. Even Kenny I'm sure. Don't deny it. Or you know what? Maybe it's just me. But I feel that the more aware I am of which people read my blog, the less I find myself being, well, me. I worry about being politically incorrect, about offending my "readers" and sooner or later my writings become watered down to what I want you to read and what I want you to think of me when you read what I write.
I started off the blog writing about my life but giving my friends and family false names because I was afraid if they read then I would end up in a lot of hot water. Then I realised more of my friends were "dropping by regularly" and I stopped writing about what I feel and started posting funny posts so I wouldn't have to write about things I wanted to write. My writing style changed, and I feel I have been producing very low quality pretentious writings.
Which is why I have decided to give in to this demanding urge I've had for months and move away from my garden of secrets. I'm done with secrets. I'm pursuing a new kind of writing in a new kind of blog. I need to break free. I need a change. And who knows, I might come back.
Well I guess I found the words in the end.
p.s. btw watch "the other Bodelyn sister" . It's good.

Interesting facts
While keeping my friend awake, I decided to look for interesting facts.
And, as promised, Christine, I shall post them up on my blog.
Interesting facts1. A common misconception is that the Great Wall of China is visible is space. It isn't because it is too thin. However, Hoover Dam on the other hand
is visible.
2. The word golf stands for, "Gentlemen only,Ladies forbidden"
3. Your tongue is germ free if it is pink.
4. Your pupils expand by 45% when you look at something pleasant.
5. Laughing lowers level of stress hormones and strengthens you immune system. 6 year olds laugh an average of 300 times a day. Adults only 15 to 100 times.
6. Bats always turn left when exiting a cave.
7. Men's shirts have buttons on the right, but women's shirts have buttons on the left.
8. The reason honey is so easy to digest is because its already been digested by a bee.
9. Roosters cannot crow if they cannot extend their necks.
10. Everytime you sneeze, some of your brain cells die.
11. The owl is the only bird to drop its upper eyelids to wink, all other birds raise their lower eyelids.
12. When hippos are upset, their sweat turns red.
13. The first Harley Davidson motorcycle was built in 1904, and used a tomato can for a carburator.
14. Google is a common name for a number with one million zero's.
15. The attachment of human skin to muscles is what causes dimples.
16. The sound you hear when you crack your knuckles is actually the sound of nitrogen gas bubbles bursting.
17. Colgate translates to "go hang yourself" in spanish, which is why they faced an obstacle in marketing toothpast in spanish speaking countries.
18. Women blink twice as much as men.
19. Human's and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
20. I saw two men dressed as nuns today. They were bouncers for a gay bar. Who says interesting things don't happen in Adelaide?
These are some facts I found from different websites, but one site in particular caught my attention. This guy's personality is so quirky. The comments in the brackets are his, not mine.
Look for the whole page
HERE!1. If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
(Hardly seems worth it)
2. If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.
(Now that's more like it)
3. A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes.
(In my next life I want to be a pig)
(How'd they figure this out, and why?)
4. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.
(Still can't get over that pig thing)
13. The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.
(Honey, I'm home. What the....)
(Well, at least pigs get a break there...)
14. Some lions mate over 50 times a day.
(In my next life I still want to be a pig ... quality over quantity)
...
Go study, Sumie!!! Finals in less than 30 days!!!

Love Bite
What is a love bite?This question actually crossed my mind while I was doing my Management II assignment a few weeks back. Don't ask why. Its not like you don't get distracted when you've been working for hours on ends. So, curiouser and curiouser I got until I urban-dictionaried it. Result were indubitably hilarious:
Love Bite:
Definition 1: A small cluster of split veins on the neck from sucking. Given by lovers during
sex or
make outs. Can cause the receiving person to moan.
The person who is going to give the love bite sucks on the neck until a golf ball-ish sized mark appears on the neck.
Losers use their vacuum cleaners to give themselves love bites.
Some people see love bites as a mark that the person carrying the mark is either a slut or the person carrying the mark's girlfriend is a slut. But it
simply shows that you are in a strong and healthy relationship.
Definition 2: A way for insecure people to prove to everyone else that they are in a sexual relationship.
Example:Person 1: *points to neck* "PHOAR look what Fran gave me."
Person 2: "Oh, how cute...
....you gave your vacuum cleaner a name ..."
I looooooooooove urban dictionary...

Help Me
My concentration is slipping through my fingers.
The distraction steals me away.
Consciousness is claiming itself a stranger to me.
Drowsiness threatens my attention.
I'm drowned in torpidation.
Hypnotised by the somnolent music created by 'him' with the sand.
He comes quietly, creeping from the back of my mind and seeps into my inner-most thoughts.
Like a ninja in the night, he sprinkles my thought with sands grained with memory of a past long forgotten.
Oh, so quietly, you come. I'm too immensed to care that you only came to rob me of that which I treasure.
After you are done picking me apart, depart quickly. Quickly, I pray.
And leave me to rest in pieces.
