Basically Doujin overload is a Graphic novel convention designed for fans of graphic novels, duh.. there are graphic novels and figurines for sale, costume play events, performances e.g. dance, singing, acting.
Went there with Msian friends, helped Alena (kiwi asian friend i met on plane) with the dance performance, learned the dance steps 15 minutes b4 the actual performance. haha. XD See mum, I really like to dance, n have quite a nack for it too! That's Y i've always performed in high school n college. =)

Hush, little baby, dont say a word, and nevermind that noise u heard, its just a beast under ur bed, in ur closet in ur head! lol song from Metallica- Enter Sandman
oh yea~ do u want it~? ROFL
Ya, so that is about it.. 1st time cam whoring, usually too lazy to take photos. I've even forgot to bring my camera to the ball! And Parnell st trip! Even if I've brought the cam, like in one of the few formal dinners here, i'ld be too lazy to take pictures.. thats y u dun see any of my formal dinner pics. haha.

pictures of the UMSA ball
Pre removal of fashion show make-up, my lips are sooo bloody red..i look like vampire
Welcome to the dark ssssiiidddde~~~ (yea, but seriously, this photo gives a really dark vibe, the lightings, makeup, n aura i guess? btw, he's the drummer.)
After wiping out the lipstick, most of the lipstick.. haha
I really like how the lighting falls on my shoulders, legs..etc. Oh, and check out the leg/feet pose, i think it turned out pretty well. =D
Ball ended, goin off. thats me on the far right with furry scarf and biker jacket.
Mission Bay No.2
haha!!!!!! I've conquered mission bay!!!!
i ran there today!!! yay~~~ wow what a accomplishment!!!!!!!!!
of course, my 'ran' = jog? haha, yes, i noe, i'm slow. x_X
Stupid sky wanted to rain, good thing it just showered a little n thank God thank Godx 1000000 it stopped after a while.
The last trip to mission bay failed due to lousy weather. stupid sky started pouring, and i had no choice but to turn back as it was too heavy. I wanted to go on, cos I know getting drenched in NZ's rain wont make u sick, but really the rain was so heavy my entire body was soaked in a minutes time. And I had to drag myself home in dripping wet clothes n soaked shoes not to mentioned soaked mp3 player- which surprisingly did not fail me, aaah such reliable subject, it is a Sony, cheers for Sony!
I'm gonna try to keep up my running schedule, since it can burn calories (yes, vain.. i know) n good for health. But I think when my assignment comes I'll be sitting on my chair instead of working out...==.. gee, i have to learn to NOT be so extreme...
Nowadays, i prefer to run outdoors, as the air is better (when there are no cars passing by) and it more relaxing than running on treadmill. Treadmill is like torture..haha, or prob that is because i torture myself.. haha.
Then again maybe its because I'm sick of running on treadmills. But i think its good to mixed it up, indoor n outdoor running. Different kind of feelling.
I realized, my outdoor songs are not suitable on treadmill as treadmill's song needs to be faster n harder. haha. So, i'm guessing i run slower outdoors than indoors. haha. which means i slack more for outdoors. haha. No wonder i like outdoors more. lol.
My experiment of not doing any workout for the past month,resulted in a frequent em.. back pain?? or like i dunno, some kind of sore-ness around the hamstring (because i sit cross legged for hours). Weird.. maybe its my sleeping position? I dont remember having any of those symptoms when i workout though.
Yay, holidays are over!!! (i hate holidays) hahahahaha, no more spending money cos bored..hv been spending more than usual during holidays.. mostly on food ..haha sushies... n drinks.. pearl milk tea.. Yay~! lectures on monday!! yay, knowledge!
Yesterday i walked all the way to Parnell st. Checked out some old historical buildings, and the famous shopping center at Newmarket. I wish there are more historical buildings around. Its really an eye opener, and plus u get to learn stuff too!
There is a bus to Parnell n Newmarket actually, but i prefer to walk really. Its much nicer walking in a nice weather and checking out each building, shops, as u pass by. Plus u get to know the place better too.
Returning to my ran to mission bay today, as i pass by the ocean, there view is so relaxing! looking at the canoes, the sails, the clear waters splashing up the banks, the stretch of soil at the bank extending towards the sea in a bended arrow shape, the birds at on the shore pecking at the sand, etc.
Also, one of the reasons i like running out, is that u get to see other runners too, and cyclist. They can be a good source of motivation! Just by looking at how they run, the way they lift their feet, the springiness and lightness of their steps, etc. And what i do is imitate them, and run behind them, so they become some sort of leader, that prevents me from resting too often. hehe.
But of course la, i only imitate for that moment, not to say that my running has become as good or better. haha.
I realize i tend to learn faster or do better when there is somebody demonstrating
e.g dancing. If there is a good leader guiding, then my movements will go up a notch!
There is this indian dance we are doing for the coming international night event, and after watching the real dance on youtube, my interpretation improved.
In M'sia, b4 boxing class i'll sometimes watch a fight b4 going for class, so that i'll get a better feel of rhythm during sparring session. SO u can tell if i have watched any vids b4 I spar..if the sparring is shit means i did not watch. lol.
But that doesnt work if i do it often, it has to retain a certain freshness to it (the clip or watever i'm using as guide).
guess that is it for now. I bet my calves will hurt tmr. hamstrings are sore now. lol.

Mission Bay
Went to Mission Bay with Ann yesterday, she's from Beijing.
Took a bus there and took pictures and walked back... which took us erm.. i didnt really estimate the time but i think around 2 hours? Its pretty far, plus on the way back we kept taking pictures. A bus journey from Britomart to Mission Bay will take approx 15minutes, on the high way.
Today I attempted running mission bay, (u noe la, if u say u run there,people will O_O ma lol) But then when I i'm just about to cross the bridge, stupid sky started raining.. I thought its the usual drizzle so i continued running then it started raining VERY heavily.. so i changed my mind and ran back. By the time i reached home i was drenched, it's like i've just came out of a swimming pool. ==lll
Getting drenched under NZ's rain wont make u sick, unlike msia. SO its really quite fun to run under the rain! Different kind of experience! But then agian its not really fun running carrying the weight of your wet cloths, ugh so heavy..
