Argh, the internet is being slow and ridiculous! Grrr.

I actually logged on to find a guide to the final level of Kingdom Hearts (remember that game I was playing at the beginning of this year?)...I figured that since I'm currently not in the best of sorts (I had food poisoning...but though it's abated somewhat, the fact that I haven't eaten anything properly for 3 or so days means that I feel really weak and not-quite-here. I'm supposed to head out with my school friends for a final fling before Jo and Shanna head off to their various 2004 locations, and I really want to go, but I don't think I'm exactly in a state to drive...hrm.)(That was a long aside!), that I'd finish the game and finally hand the PS2 back to its rightful owner!

Watched the Carols in the Domain last night...it was interesting, what with all the B-grade celebrities and all! Katrina Warren looked (this is for you Rima!) like I imagine Mrs Healy from Circle of Friends to look like- corsetted within an inch of her life, and o-so-full of gaffs as well. And S2S...where the heck have they been all of 2003?? So random. The one stand out of the night (for me) was Paulini...she definitely had the best voice out of all of them!

On a totally different note, it's a mishmash of feelings with my sister being home. I mean, like I said before, it's really nice to be able to walk into another room and for her to be there. But sometimes it's just so sad. Yesterday was Dad's birthday, and at dinner, both he and Mum were sniffling *sniff sniff* constantly. Sometimes, it's just really hard for me to hang on to a brave face. Not that I'm expected to have a brave face, but it would be counter-productive if we were all sniffling messes. Sigh. Seeing the parents like that just makes it so much worse for me...they feel it so much more accutely. I just pray that God would heal her for THEIR sake, if not mine or anyone elses'. Anyway, I'm quite...adjusted, you could say...to the situation, so I don't usually get that sad, but yesterday, I too had attacks of the sad waves...=(.

Sigh.
