Long time no talk! I'm so sorry. I was kind of busy and lazy. Anyways~

It was my last working day today. You can't really call it a day, as I only had to work for 1 and 1/4 hours. Not bad, eh? XD

I'm so happy that work has end, it's so tiring getting up at 5 am every morning. Now I can sleep in again *yay* Hahahaha.. and most important, I can stay late too!

Work wasn't that bad, I don't want to explain what I had to do, because I think I can't explain that in English, nor in German. But my fingers hurt a lot. It's getting better though. I think I'll recover soon. At least I know I get something in return. ~1.000 € o_O YES! You don't know how happy I am! XD I've never earned money myself, it's the first time I worked and look what I get for my fist job! Not that bad, eh? I'm going to apply for this company next year again, I think.

So, I have a lot of freetime again. What am I going to do? I have no clue. I'll just relax and chill. I don't know what my friends do, they all seem to be very busy o_O

Oh, my parents and my little sister are going to Turkey too in 2 weeks time, and my brother is going to Germany for a week. That means, I'm going to be at home all by myself! I'm going to hunger to death, I guess o_O But it's good to have some time for myself.. sometimes you can go crazy with all your family members around you =P Hehehehe..

Btw. I cut my hair. And I'm so not satisfied with it. I got bangs which looks like I cut it myself. It looks horrible. Wah >_< It's absolutely not what I wanted. Next time I go to the hairdresser I'm gonna bring a picture with the hair I want. My friend's hair turned out soooooooooo good. Wah, so pretty. Why did she messed up with mine????? Well, my friend had another hairdresser. Maybe that's why. Sucks. I know, all of my friends say it doesn't look that bad. It probably doesn't, buuuut to me it looks horrible. Thinking of the money I spent for it >_< Aiyyy~~ Why am I so unlucky??? Now I have to wait till it grows out. Hopefully it does soon =X

Ey, are you all enjoying your summer?! Hopefully, yes! =D

currently feeling: tired.

Hello my friends! =D

I just returned from Turkey on Friday. It was so much fun there and very exhausting too. We didn't do much there. During the day we were on the beach or in the pool and at night we had parties. It was great. I had a lot of fun! =D Pictures? I'll post as soon as I get them. I also promised in Faithful4ever to post some, as I haven't posted pictures of me for quite some time now! =D

Today, was my first work day. I think I did tell you that I got a job at the company where my mum works at. It was so exhausting. I had to stand the whole day and did some control. More than 80.000 glasses need to be checked if they are okay or not, because about the half is not okay and have to be returned. Stupid french producer! Argh! That's gonna be my job for the next 3 weeks. It's really exhausting, and my finger hurts because of checking it. Aiyyy..

Anyways.. as long as I get paid, I can endure this! =D I need the money for Barcelona.. hihihihi..

currently feeling: actually good.

I just wanted to let you guys know that EVERYONE of my class passed the Matura! That doesn't happen a lot, that everyone (really every single person) pass the Matura at the first try. I'm so proud of my class!

Normally if all classes pass the Matura, that means if every senior passes the Matura, the school would fly a white flag. 2 of the other class already failed the exams, that means we won't get one. But we made our own flag. Hehehehe.. When I get the photos, I'll upload it. If I don't forget. ^__^

It's so kewl that everyone passed the Matura. I actually haven't realised it yet, that high school is over. A new chapter of my life has begun. Crazy~~~

News! News! News! I know I haven't update for so many weeks, but now I have something to tell you. I had my oral Matura today. Now, I'm officially unemployed! Hehehehehe..

I'm so happy that it's over. Everything's over. School is over, for good. I'm happy.

The oral exam was 'easier' than expected. Well, everyone told us, it's not that bad. But I was nevertheless very nervous before the exam. Thank god, it's over. It's like a milestone of my life. Matura - over. Waaaaah~~

Matura. That's what I have been worked for for 5 years!

I'm quite satisfied with the grades too. I got 3 in German, Accounting + Business Studies and in English, a 1 in Maths XD I don't know the marks of my oral exams, but I don't think it's worse than a 3. So you can say, I'm quite satisfied with these grades. I'm happy ^__^ And it actually doesn't matter what grades you have, the only thing that matters is, that I passed it. And I did. *yay*

Later, we are going to celebrate. But before, I need some sleep. That's gonna be a stressful weekend. Tomorrow is my friend's birthday. And we are going to celebrate it. There's so much to celebrate. 2 friends' birthday, my Matura, ISO-certification of the company for which another friend works. Yes, yes, yes.

I hope you are all doing fine. I think most of you are on vacation already? Well, enjoy and have a great time! =D

Ah, wait.. one more thing. I got a job for summer. Well for 3 weeks.. I'm going to work at the company where my mum works. Isn't that great? I'm going to earn some money which I will spend immediately in Barcelona.. Hrhrhrhrhr.. And yes.. in two weeks time I'm going to Turkey.. Matura-trip.. I'm looking forward to it. I miss the sun!! (It's raining, raining and raining here.. where's the summer????)

currently feeling: somehow relieved. stressed.

Two more weeks. I cannot believe it. In two weeks time, I'm going to take my Matura-exams. That's crazy! Time flies so fast!! I'm not sure if I'm ready for the Matura, but on the other hand, I cannot wait till it's over..

I had my Matura presentation last Monday. It has not really something to do with the Matura itself. I had to do a marketing project with 2 of my classmates and we presented it on Monday. It was okay I guess. I got a 2 for it, while my other two classmates got a 1. That's okay, because I nevertheless get a 1 in my school leaving certificate, so it's fine. I was really nervous. I hate presentations. I hate speaking in front of people. I just don't like it. So, I'm glad it's over. I was so afraid of it, but it wasn't that bad after all.

My school year is coming to an end. In the last past 2 weeks I had many exams because teachers weren't sure which mark they should give me, so I had to do some tests for getting the better one. I managed to get 5 better marks out of 6. I didn't study for the English one, but that's okay for me! Haha.. That was a funny exam. Everytime I made a mistake, I had to laugh lolz. My friend didn't pass this exam either. We both knew that we wouldn't, but we just tried. Oh well.. some of you might not understand why I didn't study, I guess. I'm not striving for excellent marks, so I'm already quite satisfied with average marks ^___^;; I think you guess are different, you're so smart anyway and only get excellent marks! ^___^

6 school days to go. Unbelievable, huh? I think I haven't realised it yet. It's really coming to an end. Finally. I'm growing up!! Hahahaha..

What else I can tell about my life? Hmm.. I still haven't got a job. Why does nobody want me?? I'm really strenuous, I'm reliable, I'm nice.... okay, that's enough, I guess.. Hahaha.. I need a job! >_< I need the money for my Barcelona trip. I need money!! >_< I wrote more than 20 applications, none of them is ready to give me a job. Bleh! Some companies haven't replied yet, I hope they do soon and I hope they will take me. I want to work.. If not, I have to look for a waitress job or something like that.. we'll see..

Yes, another thing I wanted to tell you. It's not interesting but my allergy is killing me! Every other minute I have to blow my nose. It's really getting on my nerves. Anyone knows what to do about it?! *sigh*

I'm going to club tonight. I know I should study, but I need a break too, right?! ^___^ Have a nice weekend, everyone!

currently feeling: good.

I'm finally on Easter (spring) break. I can't really enjoy the holidays though, because there's a lot of things I have to do. Matura is coming closer and closer. There are 'only' 14 schooldays to go. 14!! Crazy..

Anyways~ I went on a shopping spree today. First with my friends and afterward with my family =D And I spent SO much money >_<

I bought a elegant black suit. Can a girl actually wear a suit? I'm not sure if you can also use the term 'suit' also for women?! Anyway, you know what I mean, right? So, I bought this outfit for 160 € and shoes for 45 €, which I need for my Matura-presentation after the holidays and for the Matura exam itself. Yes, we have to wear elegantly for occassion >_< You can say, that I spent more than 200 € only for the outfit, and to be honest, it's not even complet. I still need a top to wear under. Ugh.

I also got red ballerinas. So cute!! My sister said it's like Dorothy's red shoes! =D Super cute! Besides, I bought a white spring jacket and some earrings.

You can say, it was a real shopping spree today. I haven't been to the shopping mall for weeks if not months. The funny thing is, I met so many classmates there. All of us were so busy with school that we haven't had time for shopping. So everyone went today ^__^ Funny..

Yesterday I went to my aunts' place and they asked me what I want to have for graduation. A trip or a laptop. Of course I chose a laptop! I need one anyway for the FH. I'm so excited!! =D Although I hate typing on a laptop (I will get used to it) I am looking forward to having one. It's more convenient for sure. Great! Hihihi..

Ohh~~ Time is flying by so fast. Today is my last day being 18. Unbelievable! I don't even feel like someone who's 18!! I can't turn 19 yet!! Noooooooo~~ Hahaha.. j/k

Well, I have to pick my brother up from tutoring class now.

OMG, wait! There's something I wanted to tell you. No, it's not that interesting actually but I heard in the radio that it should snow tomorrow?! WTF snow?! Crazy world... I really hope it's not gonna snow tomorrow.. Hey it's spring, there's no place for snow! >_<

Btw. does anyone know the Korean Drama "Spring Waltz"? I'm watching that right now, and I like it a lot. Parts were even filmed in Austria. So kewl! If I knew the actors/actress earlier I would have gone to Vienna, Salzburg, wherever to see them!! ^___^ Well, I actually was in the same town (Vienna) when they were there filming, but I didn't know. *sigh*

I don't know.. but the Korean entertainment mania has caught me, I guess. At the moment I am more interested in Korean entertainment than Taiwanese/Chinese. Aiyy~~ that's only because I'm influenced from every side! =P No, I don't say it's bad.. but I'm just surprised by myself. Normally I don't watch Korean dramas even if people said it's good, now I do. Oh well~~

Oh oh.. I really have to go now, or I am coming late.. hihi.. cYaa~~


[Justine*] Thanx for the Bday-wishes.. I know I am so late.. sorry! Lolz.. yea.. I knew it was ShiWon who is a good friend of ChangMin.. I remember you talking about that =P hehehe.. he's cute, btw! =P

[Simo*] My dear!! Grazie!! Yea, Matura is coming REALLY near.. in two weeks time --> MATURA.. wish me luck! Hahaha.. Well, we'll chat when you're less busy and when I am less busy too!

[Fiona*] Thanks to you too! You're already on break? Your school year ends so early in Canada.. unfaaair!! =P Well, yea, we have to 'dress up' for our Matura, I don't understand why, but I think to keep it more formal?! Dunno.. But once in a time it's also nice to wear more elegantly ^___^

[Nicole*] Thanx! ^__^ I haven't watched any Korean dramas yet, where I had to cry like whoa.. at least I can't remember.. hahaha..

Good news. Wonderful news!

I GOT ACCEPTED! Can you believe it? I'm going to be a student of the FH Steyr (University of Applied Science). Isn't that great?

I received the letter yesterday. I couldn't believe it at first. I didn't really understand what the words meant. I thought it was wrong! Really. Wowerz~ They accepted ME. MEEEEE?? Woah~~

Thank you for supporting me, encouraging me, praying for me, keeping your fingers crossed for me. I'm so happy. I really am. Now, I'm motivated to study hard to pass my Matura. Without Matura I can't study, that's the problem >_< So, I'm going to study even harder.

I cannot believe it. I can't. I never thought they would take me right away. I thought they would put me on the waiting list first. My grades aren't that good, and I didn't think my interview was that good. I think I sounded very insecure? I was okay at the test. At one part (Logical part) I even got 96%. That's crazy, but most of the answered were guessed. =D Oh wellz~ I'm so happy I got in. ^___^

As you can see, I'm quite busy right now. Hardly have time to post here, or to chat. School is really tiring me. There are so many things to do and it doesn't have an end >_< Every week I have at least one test. Some teachers go all crazy and want to torture us the last few weeks. Really. They don't understand that their subject (like History) is not the most important one in the school. I don't have to take History exams at the Matura. But she can't understand that. She still thinks we should 'only' study for History.

My teacher says, that we should rather study History than Accounting, which is a major subject in our school and we have to take Matura in that subject. Stupid this woman. Really. I hate her so much, I really do. I can't wait to graduate from school and never ever have to see her again. XD

Well, I already spent too much time online. I haven't studied today. I should do that now >_<

I feel so isolated. I haven't met my friends for weeks. Really, I am always at home at weekends to study while they meet eachother. It's depressing me. No social contact at all. Poor me! But I have to set things aside and concentrate on studying. I HAVE TO!! Ugh.. even if I don't want to *cries* Poor me!!

Haha. No, I'm not crying for sympathy! Looolz~ I just feel like ranting =P

Have a nice weekend, everyone!! ^___^

I had this acceptance test for this school in Steyr today. I got up at 5am and took the 6.15am train. I was soooooooo tired!! It's not easy to get up that early in the morning. It was still dark outside when I left the house at 5.30.

The potential test started at 8 o'clock. There were different tasks like interpreting diagrams, some maths task, analogies, logical things. I hope I answered a lot of questions right. For every right answer you get one point, the more points the better. So I do hope I have a lots! =) Some of the questions (actually most of them) were soooo difficult! I could only guess. Let's hope I guessed it right! Hahaha.

After this 3 hours test I had a gap of 4 1/2 hours before I had my interview. I didn't know what to do in these 4 hours >_< I studied a bit for my french test and then I just talked with other applicants.

The interview wasn't that long, thank god. The others said, my interview was one of the shortest!! First, the professor talked in English and I was like: OH NOOO!! Please don't. Lolz.. really, I hate speaking in English, because I suck in it. My writings in English are much better. I know I have to practise more, but with whom should I speak in English? I hardly speak English in school too. My English teacher sucks. Anyway. Later he continued in German, thank god! =) He asked me why I wanted to specialise in Logistic and bla bla bla. I didn't really know what to say to please him. Haha. Then he asked me to give him some adjectives that describe me. Another thing he wanted to know: what am I proud of? OMG!! What a question! I said family and friends, because without them I couldn't do what I want to do. They always support me. I really didn't know what to say. I prepared so many things, but couldn't use any of them. Great, ha?!

Oh well, I'm glad it's over. I'll receive a letter in about 2 weeks. I do hope that I get lots of points and that they take me. Keep my fingers crossed! =)

[Fiona*] The new book? Well.... I haven't read since I posted this entry ^___^;; Absolutely no time.. I'm so busy!! Wah~ But it's good so far. It's interesting, because it's a totally different culture! ^___^

[Ate Mate*] Ate Mate!! It's been some time I've heard from you!! ^___^ But I always read your multiple entries ^___^ So I keep myself a bit up to date with your life.. Hihi..

Well.. as you can see, I finished reading Sophie Kinsella's 'Shopaholic & Sister'. I like her books.. they are easy to read and easy to understand. And they are funny too!! =) Now I'm reading a book about a woman, who's from somewhere in China (near Tibet) Where she comes from it's usual that the women have the say. Isn't that unusual?! =) It's interesting to hear about a different culture and so on. I really like books telling real-life stories, experiences of lives. It's really interesting.

Simo sent me BBC's 'Pride & Prejudice' and I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LUV IT. I haven't finished it yet.. watching eps 5 right now (out of 6) and I only got it yesterday. It's so addicting.. I'm going to watch the rest now.. and then I'm going to rewatch it. I LUV U SIMO!! Thanx for sending me!! *hugz*

[Kai*] Kai!! Wowerz~~ You're so right.. it's been quite a looooong time we last chatted.. Hardly see you online?? How are you doing? Now and then I hopp by your blog. I love your critics about people's clothes at certain events (golden globes etc) Hihihi..

[Simo*] Oh my dear!! You don't know how CRAZY my sister and I got. We love love love love love this drama!! It's wonderful!! Don't ask us how often we've already watched it? Almost every day at least one episode!! Now and then we also quote the people in there.. like: "Now - I understand" or "She's not handsome enough to temp ME" Hahahaha.. I luv this series, I thank you hundreds of time for sending me the DVDs, I luv you!! <3

[Fiona*] Hahaha.. I hardly have time for reading either. The only thing I read at the moment are my schoolbooks - tons of schoolbooks >_< *sigh*

I also posted the final medal chart, I'm not going to do that now, because it takes me a lot of time to edit it. I'll do it tomorrow, or when I have time.

I really feel stupid right now >_<

Anyways~ I have to go to bed now. I actually should already been sleeping. Good night, my friends~
