crochet black cotton oversized jumper; i love you wynnum!

today has been another boring day, and im regrettably saying my holidays have turned out to be just all work! but last night, after my rush of an afternoon, i enjoyed the company of some friends and some warm cheap drinks. getting to monikas was quite the mission, having to wait at sleeman for at least 15 minutes before brendan the brainy one thought that i could have been stranded at the other stop, and so they rescued me! it was quite an enjoyable evening, minus the fact that my phone died and i made quite the stack. you see, my dear friend alex and i in quite an intoxicated state, and after dancing to the worst pop songs for hours, saw a swing and had to race to it. i hit the raised concrete and stumbled to the dirt, where the inevitable happened. i now have scratches up my arms and a few bruises.

my friend mad us dinner hand made, and i put myself to sleep. it was a great laugh! this morning, we trekked to mine to clean up before trekking to work for a few hours. which ring me to a few hours ago. for the last three hours i have finally noticed how much i hate stupid teen lust! my younger brother has very recently been dating a girl , who b all means is very nice and seem decent, but they talk for hours on goddamn end with no break and i get kicked off the inter web because of it!its so lame and i hate it! ugh someone eradicate this situation that keeps happening, you will be my hero.

now im enjoying my time, after alot of persuasion and some slightly raised voices, so props to that!

coloured silk and cotton scarf; markets of west end

well this morning has been another hard one, with such an early start. but after slaving im ready for a good night out with some girls from school and some other lovely people i know. i ran into this gorgeous girl i know after work and things have looked up from there! its really great when things go to plan and the plans just get better.

last night i enjoyed finding out that i had a look a like. though i disagreed of course, i was a little freaked out too. her name was even very similar to mine, so that was a bit weird. many people do however think its only a little similar, im glad of that.

on another thought, random boys that talk to you and completely obsess over you, that you have never met, are just weird. myself, being the nice one i am, cannot turn down such a nice yet creepy kid, so i just keep it to short answers with little to no enthusiasm, yet it keeps coming! ugh

well i am in a tad of a hurry, as i only have limited time to get ready and be off on my ordeal, have a good night!

plaid high waisted pants; found in the alleys of melbourne

well i am glad to say that it is a new week, though my beginning to it was not as fantastic as i had hoped. i have been up since 4:30 this morning, due to a long and lethargic shift that i had to pull through at work, and i am very glad to see it over! although i was a little disappointed and let down by the start of my week, i have had a very eventful weekend!


friday afternoon i enjoyed the company of one of my bestfriends and her sister, being rebels and mashing three of us into a utility vehicle made for two. we are sneaky indeed. a late night of watching the funniest videos and talking to people that make me smile was great. the morning, or rather afternoon the next day was another great time spent with friends and having lots of laughs.

though let me say, for those of you who do not know me that well, i can handle a horror movie thats for sure, but the gore? that gets me every time. at one point on saturday night i was cowering under the bedsheets hiding from a chainsaw movie full of gore and blood, waiting for every moment between when this lovely boy texted me, even if he was a bit under the influence, it helped alot to get my mind off the movie. thank you!

that bring me to sunday, and what felt like hours spent on public transport, it really is the worst. on the other hand, my piercing is healing well and looks good. that i am thankful for.

today while i was slaving over customers fulfilling their hunger problems or just plain urges to have gross food, i was thinking of what i could intend to do with my future and what i really want. all i could actually think of was that i wanted to be content and i wanted to be cared for before my time runs out. i think that seems quaint enough to fulfil what i really want.

TEH DISAPPOINTMENT IN HAPPINESS

its a bit weird that for the first time i do not have a picture, but i guess early mornings, eight hour lagging shifts and best friend persuasion leads to that. although that may have happened, i am very content right now. sitting in a room that has run a muck of the clothes all around it, and listening to some reminiscent tunes, its lovely.


on another note, i completed the task of getting my nose pierced, very suave. i am very happy, though the ring is quite large, but thats alright, later on i can change it and next to no pain. though being the silly person who thinks they know better, i hardly ate before hand and therefore almost passed out in the middle of town half an hour later. tim was my hero and there to keep me company and buy me water, thanks. i later had to work, and so far mixed comments have come back, but i really dont care each to their own and my opinion is what counts most.

anyways, this post is about today, not yesterday so lets begin. hmmm... early morning, they really do suck! i have been awake almost fourteen hours now because of my eight hour shift, but it was fun. a little shopping break in between and waking up to find breakfast made was amazing. this afternoon i indulged in vegetarian sushi, the best i have ever had. it was remarkably good after starving all day, and my best friend has kept me company. however, the choice to come over wasn't that easy. i crammed into the hood of a car in front of my friend, because there was no room. a quick pit stop into my home to pick up essentials and then some laughs the rest of the way, it was enjoyable all the same. now, i get to enjoy another late night with some quality times and quality chats. have a good weekend and a great night! see you monday, when it wont be black anymore.

floral lace and nylon vest; hand made

today was an early start, unlike most others. i was hoping to catch my dad on his way out the door, but inevitably missed him by a smidge, sigh. as the time reads it is 8:11am and i am already prepared and ready for my day ahead. last night was exceptionally great catching up with a long lost friend whom i have not seen in a few months. there was so much to talk about!

right now my heart just sped up! after hoping to catch my dad to ask him if i can get my nose pierced, i was a little angry i had missed him. so i messaged him in the hope that he would agree, and he said yes! so i guess im going through some pain today... but it will be well worth it. im thinking of shopping around for a bit. eagerly awaiting a message from my best friend though just to find out if she is meeting me later on.

on the note of last night again, let me say i love family guy and american dad so, so much. they were both great episodes and i cold not stop laughing, and if you have never watched either, go now! well have a great day, i know i will.

SEE NERDS ARE HOT

nerds, in the definition of the media and the social perspective have become the daunting term that defines the smart, yet not so popular ones of us. yet, who ever said it was gross. since the eighties when movies made being a nerd uncool, the recent trends of the 21st century have contributed to the 'acceptance' of such individuals with the name of a new culture indie. now don't get me wrong, this is just an opinion and not fact, so think what you like. but look at it, nerds are well known for thick frame glasses, button up shirts and conservative styles.

most of the things that were uncool, have now become acceptabe, indie glasses are the big framed ones, and button up shirts and ties are dead sexy most of the time. its just about getting it right. and who cares if your smart, people cant shun you for that, its an achievement. as for computer nerds, its the fact that you have a way of saving everyones little myspace lives etc that makes you awesome!

my little indian headband; found in a little memory box i have

good afternoon, wow an afternoon post not this morning. right now my house is a muck, im sure you have all seen the yellow skies because of this dust storm, i think its intriguing, a sight that is very different and i love it. i had to wake up quite early this morning, even though i decided to be a human quiz until late hours of the morning. it was worth it however, being dragged half asleep to samford to visit family. they marvelled at the differences in my appearance and asked over and over about my plans next year. how typical.

though apart from the morning of questions and input as to what i should do, instead of what i want to do, i am now at home. chatting to my lovely best friend and indulging in this is england. all i can smell is dust, its reallt not that bad as im used to it now. i have been waiting for a while to finally meet some boy that i would like, and i dont know if i have or not, due to a lack of self confidence and a lack of the ability to read 'signs' as such. i would really lve for someone to take me out to lunch, just on a picnic or to have tea in a little cafe, just chats and that kind of thing, you know.

also, happy birthday to amber, i miss you child of the mango!

nose pierced next week!

ray-bans original with gold frames and pleated demin throw-over; both some of mummy's oldies

today seems like it will be a very cumbersome day. my brother and his lover are hiding in his room, and im watching this is england with a coffee for breakfast at midday, its fantastic. not so keen on having to work again today, but with a grand weekend planned and no work then, im sure i can manage to keep it up.

on another not, dont you just love those parties where you never get drunk enough, but somehow you seem ever so entertained? well that was my night, last night. after little sleep and quite a long and enduring shift i really had no energy at all to rave, but i did anyways. catching up with chaps and ladies i havent seen in a while, and all round just having a ball. pumpin' the beats to all hours of the morning and yelling lyrics at the top of my lungs, its no wonder i can barely talk now. in the mix i did loose the back ring to my taper, so i braved it out an put through the next size which i had on me. it seems to be on the mend tremendously!

worst part ever, cleaning up after the drunkest boy i have ever seen. for someone who holds his liquor well in most circumstances, i was very surpirsed and worried for this kid. though by the end of the night and after a long cold fully-clothed shower, i think hes feeling a bit better now. the best thing about get togethers is that it gets to a point where its just you and the person your sleeping near talking to all hours of the early morning, and thats when the best advice comes out. those moments are definitely a favourite thing of mine and even better waking up to find a transaction ahs fnally come through was like christmas in september! so i went and got vegetarian tortellini, this is england and dark city. i think i will indulge in those later when i have less energy.

sailor/grandma blouse navy and white, with lace detail; found in wynnum the home of bargains

i really do get excited when a new week begins. this weekend, like many before it, has been an adventure and a half full of laughs, wonderous conversations, and crazy dance moves. what began on friday evening as a lovely bbq dinner turned into a girls crazy sleepover party with the dancing and the gossiping like you would not believe. through little to no sleep we all somehow managed to pull through and wake up to a scrumtious platter of fruits and cereals!

the rest of that day was a drag until i finally got home and took a nanna nap, the best things that have ever been invented may i add, before trekking to town, running into a great friend of mine and then missioning our way to a live music display. not concerntrating we took a wrong turn and ended up walking for an hour longer than we had to, but our miracle elixir of apple juice fixed our frustration right up, and we became more anxious the closer we were. another wonderful display of talent and running into so many people i know was just grand after that long walk. though i didnt exactly enjoy riding in a car with my friend, as he is the craziest driver i have ever seen! check out local bands such as outrage, the ailment, hold the fort, dying honour and burn athena to see some of what was displayed.

the last tales of my weekend worth telling, ends with us waiting for our friend julian in front of a popular night spot and us laughing at all the entrants. there was even a situation where a young lad insisted on crossing the road, coming to me, telling me i was cute and then proceeded back to the line of the night club, ridiculous. not enough sleep ever occurs on my weekends and by sunday night i get to wound up in conversation with lovely people to want to go to sleep.

i decided last night while painting my nails misty lilac, that i am going to try and sleep more because by monday morning you need a spatula to get me out of bed. but enough of my weekend fun, this week has some great installments of fun on the rise, including a get together tonight. i think its why i love holidays so much to be honest, freedom reigns down upon me!
