My eyes hurt, so a short post ahead.
Went to Bentleigh Market today to help out my committee, we collected a bunch of 2nd hand clothes and are selling them for money. All proceedings went to charity, so shame on those who shop lifted from our stall today, you deserve nothing else than to be squashed by a manatee.
Doughnuts for afternoon tea (yum yum)
Explored the stalls around the market, all the items they sell are so excitingly weird and cheap too!
So I went on a modest splurge.

I bought a pair of binoculars and a camera (that still works), so I can take them apart again.
All this for $10.50. I swear I could have gotten everything for $8.50 though, DAMMIT.
Happy with my purchase :) I want to fill my bedroom up with little mysteries, artefacts and weird whizzy gadgets, but my current financial state permits me to :(
One day Tina Moo, one day.
I got my exam results back today.
I did so badly xD but I managed to pass my first semester of my first year at Uni, whilst getting some pretty decent marks (and some pretty appalling marks at it too).
When my dad came back from work, to sit down and talk to my mum about his day.
I came into the room and told him that I passed all my units for my first semester. He stood up, hugged me and spun me around whilst kissing my cheek.
Little did I realise, until after my dad released me, that he was tearing.
C'mon dad, I passed all my exams, it's not something to get all emotional about xD
But I know why my dad was tearing. He is a drop out, he works very hard at his labour-intensive job on his long-term injured leg, and he only wishes that I finish my University degree, find a stable career to live the happy, fulfilling and awesome life that he never had, the life that he admires from afar.
Here's what my dad shouted out to me and my mum whilst in the movement and motion of receiving flurry of hugs and kisses from my dad: 你给我带来了光荣!
I'm touched, I've always thought my dad to be somebody who didn't give the leastest crap about me, who didn't care about me at all (and boy, has that brought on some rough patches in our family), but tonight I'm truly moved, all this time it was all inside my head, I created the monsters inside my head, walled myself in from my parents (especially my dad) and even attempted to run away a couple of times (planning out food/water supplies and all - such as drinking from school taps etc etc).
But my dad, he does care >_< and maybe I am human after all, and not some estranged alien who has no home to go to. I've found my home >_< it's right here with my parents, and I found the key back home, it's within me.
So tonight, my parents are outside chatting, laughing and having a jolly good time, whilst I'm inside my warm and cosy bedroom, typing away on my blog most. I'm safe, warm and hopeful about my bright future. So I'm going savour this blissful moment, for I know it won't last forever, all good things come to an end eventually, even my blog posts do.
