House Make Over

So I've been online 'window' shopping looking at all the items I dream of one day owning.
For months I have been wanting some shower curtains and wall art from urban outfitters, my gorgeous Tallboy just told me to finally commit and buy the items and when I finally get the checkout, Of course, they don't ship the items to Australia.

LAME.

So that really sucks. So now i'm just continuing to try and find Australian Online Homeware stores with prints etc, i'm drowning my sorrows with ice cream, i'm going to paint my nails and Pitch Perfect is on.

Anyway, here are some other items that I really would like to own one day.

I am in love with this clock but it's sold out.

Holidaysss


I am loving holidays. They have been amazing. The first week off is almost over and i've done so much, gone out in the city, gone out local, had lunch dates, spent two and half days painting and finishing the whole paint job on the house, and tomorrow I will get the house cleaned up and sorted (work on that decluttering.) I'm also going to pop down to the shops to get a few decor pieces. Yay.
Here are some before and after pictures, not very good ones purely because I was way too exhausted today to take any proper ones.

Kitchen and living area before (featuring my ugly old wall collage (let's call it the trial run) ) :















Kitchen and Living area after:




















I'm really pleased with the colours and I know what decor I'm going to get so i'm so excited. Next thing for us to get changed are the floors (from vinyl to floorboards) and then we will work on the back yard. Yay. 


It's almost that time again - Resolutions

So last year I made a few resolutions, they were -

1. Lose Weight - I get a C for effort.
I did manage to lose a shit load of weight, I did not manage to keep it off :(!!!
I am now back to where I started so I'm pretty upset about that, but I'm still aiming to lose weight again and find the lifestyle that allows me to keep it off.

2. Break my obsession with breakfast coke - A++++, I passed that one very well.

3. Donate more blood - F.
I haven't had an opportunity to do it at all.

4. Housey, Housey, Housey - B-.
We finally just finished painting the house (after being here for 8 months.)
Finally it is starting to shape up the way we wanted.
It isn't minimalist as of yet, but i'm trying to de-clutter it.
I'm pretty happy with how it is going :)

5. Be happy. I'm working on it. I'm happy in my life, i'm working on my weight, and I'm going to try and change jobs.

OK SO IT'S TIME FOR NEW RESOLUTIONS!!!!!

YAYYYYYYYYYY.

1. Lose weight and keep it off, this will always be something that I try to accomplish.
2. Housey - Get started on the minimialisticness that I want for the house, declutter and get the edgy cute things that i've always wanted. Start on the wall collage, get the new cushions for the spare rooms etc.
3. Stay Happy - Try and be positive in what aspects you can be.
4. Maintenance - I want to try and ensure that I do keep up appearances, get the hair and nails done or keep them tidy etc. It will just make me feel better etc.

Drainer

What an emotionally deflating and draining day.
Nothing makes you lose motivation more than realising how your workplace really see's you.

I'm done.


Sunday 9 December 2012

What a weekend.

I've had such a crazy few weeks lately. I'll try to get back into blogging but i've definitely lost my creative edge, kind of like writers block. I really like to let my blog have no filter and I love it to not be 'forced' but I do feel that my humour has been lagging. Hopefully it'll come back if some exciting things happen soon.

Anyway I've had an amazing weekend.

On Friday morning I went down south with Tallboys family for Willys and Tanya's magical wedding (Tallboy was in the bridal party for a wedding so he was already with the groom down south.) The M.I.L and her family took me down south with them and we had a stunning lunch at the Eagle Bay Brewery. It was absolutely delicious, the best thing about down south is the food, as it's so fresh and all grown locally.

Eaglebay brewery soooo pretty

In the Arvo we went to our accommodation which were little cabins on farm stays and I just hung out with the M.I.L and her sisters, and then all the other relatives, the american nanny Tessa and all of Willy's little brothers and sisters (ranging from 5 - 10 years old), children scare the shit out of me, honestly they are little humans that can talk and scream and they sense your fear of them, but it was ok after about 5 hours we kind of became awkward friends so that was good.

The farmstay had animals so we took the kids to see those, it was pretty cute.





Rosie and Ruby with Tessa the farm dog.

A lot of bad food was consumed and the kids we entertaining especially Eddie (who I am currently plotting to steal) with his favourite youtube song, see below; it made me crack up, definitely makes me think that someone who was drunk created it.




 If you see the below child (Eddie) missing, it's because I've stolen him.






Then on Friday night at 10pm the F.I.L and B.I.L arrived, B.I.L and I stayed up being best friends forever, talking about amazing book ideas so I can be a famous and very rich author one day.

On Saturday we fed the farm animals with the kids.

After that the whole family (20ish of us) went into Yallingup and had coffees then went to the beach, it was beautiful, the weather was perfect. 




Amazing location

Me, Tessa (American Nanny) and Eddie.

We then got ready for the wedding that was being held at a Winery Estate.

The Estate was beautiful, so lush and green with perfect views and beautiful gardens, Tanya was a gorgeous bride in a stunning gown and it was a really nice ceremony. The reception was held at the Duckstein brewery and it was gorgeous! It had the most stunning view of a take and the sky above it with cracked clouds showing glorious sky light was just insane. The speeches were beautiful and the company was fantastic, it was such a special night and I feel very blessed to have been a part of it. I so wish them every happiness in the world & now they are off to Hawaii together.






Mermaid Bun hair 




Phoebe loving the purple skittles. 


On Sunday I woke up feeling a bit sorry for myself but that was self inflicted. We spent more time with the family and then headed back home.

I also baked a cake, but I don't like to follow recipes and I used the wrong flour so my banana cake turned into a solid gross 2cm lump of yuk. yay for me.


Tomorrow I still have a day off work which is truly such an amazing feeling after such a full on weekend, so I'm going to do some chores around the house, go to a special appointment and then hopefully catch up with some friends.

The YoYo Dieter Strikes Again.

So I'm back at my old tricks, losing weight being happy and satisfied with the weight loss and then binge my heart out until I gain it all back. *sigh* when will I learn.

I am only 5kg away from being at my heaviest again so, once again, I have restricted myself to trying to change my lifestyle…again. Nothing like try number 83478322001328920100000000, at least I keep trying.

So I am back to having limited carbs and sugars.

DAY 1 in the life of limited sugars and carbs.

6am wake up & walked the dogs
7am had fruit, natural yoghurt and a tbs of strawberry yoghurt to mix in.
8.30am work
11.00am had an apple and a half a cup of tea
12.00pm had lunch - greensalad, raw mushrooms, skinny cow piece of cheese and quiche (got to have protein)
1pm - die of hunger
2pm - die of hunger
3pm - die of hunger
4pm - half a cup of tea
5pm - Drive home
5.30pm - Make a thai green curry with tons of vege for lunches
6pm - walk dogs again
6.45pm - get home again
7.00pm - make dinner, pan fried chicken with mushroom and garlic sauce and salad
8.00pm - spend time with husband
9.00pm - finish tafe
9.23pm - Start getting the sugar and carb headache withdrawals.

At least I know that I need to be more prepared when it comes to snacks. I just struggle to find things to eat that aren't carbs or sugar. I'll have to make my snacks protein based again.

I'll keep progress of how I'm going, but my history shows that I always do this, lose motivation and give up. Yay for me.

Friday 9 November 2012

YAYYYY

OH MY GOD!
I have my wedding disc with the photos on them ANDDDDDDD I have so many ideas.
So excited!!!!

My book

So I've started writing my book. I have no depth to it. It has no storyline so far, but I have to say it makes me feel better.

here's a little bit:

He looked at me, it was such a caring and gentle gaze, he kindly brushed some stray hairs out of my face and before I knew it I had pushed myself into him, I kissed his face, his stubble grazed my face, I interlocked my mouth with his and to my surprise he was kissing me back, it was soft and passionate. I mirrored his actions and I latched onto the bottom of his lip giving it a gentle tug. I continued kissing him I couldn’t help myself and my hands were running through his hair. I felt as though I had been connected to him for hours but it had only been a few minutes until the drunken embrace was broken. My stomach was looping and I was euphoric, feeling some many emotions that I hadn’t felt for so long.


___________________________________

P.s my book isn't going to be a 50 shades of grey or a twilight, it's not sadistic, it's not pornographic. It's just something that I want to create for myself, something that has a happy ending.

Tallboy

This guy.
Melts.
My.
Heart.
My heart is yours

wahmbulance

I get so sooky when I'm sick. I can't help but think of how different my life would be if my mum were still here. I miss her everyday and I just wish that I could have her back. I have a good life, but it will never be complete. I love my husband and I love my friends, but there are days when it all goes wrong and all you need is the 'mum hug' just the fact that I can't just pick up the phone and call her sucks. I can't just call her and ask her for advice or meet up with her for a coffee. It's pretty fucking bullshit. She always said I could be anything that I wanted to be, she found her career that she loved when she was 40. I just really need her today.

reallyyyy?

I can't believe I'm still sick, got sick on Thursday, went home sick from work on Friday, felt ok on Saturday morning, got worse in the arvo and now Sunday night still have horrible fevers. Sucks a fat one that's for sure.

I was supposed to start back at the gym tomorrow but that's not going to happen when I have such a hot fever. I'll have to focus on getting better and then get back to it. I'm still going to eat healthy and get back on track with eating well.

Tallboy and I have started paining the house. Only little bits and pieces but I'm so excited that we are working on it. I can't wait until we've done the walls and then once that's done new floors, skirting boards and then I can work on accessorising the house!
New curtains, shower curtains, wall art!!, chandeliers and rugs. It's going to be amazing!

I can't wait. My fever is getting worse so i'm out.
bye.

*le sigh*

I WISH I KNEW WHAT I WANTED TO DO WITH MY LIFE.

My Olsen Twins Wedding

OMG you guys! It's finally happened, Memma is OFF the Market.
Captain Planet finally proposed to her, in a plane no doubt, pfft of course he'd do it in a plane, he's got to be in the sky being Captain Planet and all.

Congratulations Memma, you are going to be the most stunning bride & i'm going to be crying like crazy.

Memma got engaged on saturday and its only Monday night now and we've probably texted each other about 8 million messages, pictures of rings (Memma get's to choose or make her own - lucky thing) & we have be researching venues like crazy.

I'm so happy for her & I'm actually really excited to be able to help plan a wedding that isn't mine. SO much more fun that way.

:) :)

Sunday 7 October 2012

Last month I went to my brothers wedding, it was so beautiful and I felt so blessed to be a part of it. It was a beautiful ceremony and reception and I had so much fun. Grant and his wife are now roaming around europe having the time of their lives. I'm so jelly.


A picture from our wedding photos love it so much :)


just exploring Perth.


My lunch today, just because.


Our House! Tallboy and I are currently going to renovate. At this point in time we need to paint all of the walls, do feature walls, get wedding photos and other prints ordered for hanging, get new bed covers and all of that. but it's just nice to finally have all of the rooms de-cluttered.

update

Another update because I've been so slack. I honestly think that lounging and relaxing should be a sport I would win at it. I love wasting my days just plodding around doing nothing, watching mindless tv and looking at pretty things online. It's kind of really terrible how much I love it. I mean this whole long weekend the weather has been insane like too good to spend inside, but i've spent it inside anyway. I need to work on that.

This weekend was a long weekend, ugh so good! So sad to go back to work tomorrow.

Friday night tallboy and I went out to dinner and a movie. We saw Looper, it was actually pretty good for an action movie.
On Saturday I was supposed to do my Tafe work whilst Tallboy went to stupid bucks party (I hate strippers, stupid sluzzies.) then my Partner in crime came over, we drank and caught up, I made us dinner while we just continued to drink and laugh. It was really nice.
On Sunday Tallboy came home, we went to the movies again (he just loves the movies) we saw Bait in 3D it was the worst movie ever, truly terrible. We also went to masters and bought some paint to start on our house make over. I painted a little bit of the house and then Memma came over to hang out with us for a bit it was really nice.
Today Tallboy was in a really lazy mood, he just wanted to chill out and not do much, so I spent the day just chilling with him, we painted our breakfast bar and started on some other house make over things. It was really nice. I'll start doing some before and after photos but our house is going to be a long process. I'm excited for the end result but I know it will take a long time.

I've also started writing a book, just something stupid to make me feel better about not using my 'writing' ability. Maybe I'll be able to put some sort of thrill or twist into it so it becomes something sellable but for right now it's just mishmash crap.

I've never known

I've never known what i've wanted to do with my life.
All I know is that since my young teens i've been a hopeless romantic and i've been a writer. I've not necessarily been a good writer, i've not necessarily been good at grammar or punctuation. However, I've put my thoughts to paper and I've blurted out my emotions, it's as if it's all i've ever known.

I used to write poems, write raps, write short stories, write pages and pages of nonsense and it just felt right. I wish that I had taken that and just gone in some sort of direction with it. I've had diaries ever since I can remember, i've had at least 3 online blogs that I can recall and I still come back at 25 years of age and put my thoughts out here.

I just wish that I didn't have to 'wish' to know what I want to do. I'm so continuously lost. People say 'Who cares' if you don't know what you want to do? Um are you serious? Life is so short and precious, what's the point spending it feeling like you are less that what you are? Or feeling like you have something special but don't know how to use it? Or struggle on a daily basis because you need to know what else is out there?

I'm just going to start writing a novel on some shit.

Such is life

I'm feeling a bit down tonight.

I hate what growing up can do to the mind.
Kids are so fearless, so curious, free and oh got the innocence.
I remember being little and watching 'Drop Dead Fred' over and over and over oblivious to it. It was my favourite movie. I tried to watch it a few years ago and it freaked me out.
I used to love horse riding and water slides and then when I did those things a few years ago and went to theme parks in America I was petrified of the rides and refused to go on them.
I hate how a little bit of fear can just paralyse what you are capable of doing.

Today I really just wish that I could run away.
I dont know where I'd go or who I'd turn to, I'd just keep going until I got to somewhere, where the waves crashed on the sand and I could collapse into a heap and just be still and calm. I honestly can't even go to the beach by myself because I'm too scared that knowing my luck a murder would be lurking in the bushes. Bad people in the world are bullshit. Stupid effing murders and predators lurking in places that I want to run away to. If I want to run away I'd have to take a security guard and that just defeats the purpose of running away to be alone, even though the thing that upsets me the most is the fact that i'm alone.

MIND EFF RIGHT THERE PEOPLE.

Update 2394329083094832

So I can't even recall what i've been up to lately. WAY too much.

Nights out clubbing.
Date nights with the boy.
Goodbye dinner / city nights with friends who are going travelling.
Impulsive icecream trips.
Dinner Parties.
Work outs.
Diets.
Binges.
House reno planning.
Husband / Wife plans.
Smiles.
Laughs
& rarely any tears.

Life's been good lately.

Tonight I was discussing wedding songs with my brother for his wedding coming up in two weeks!! It's so exciting, he's getting so excited and it's so cute to see my older brother so happy and so ecstatic about the approaching day. I'll be doing a reading which Im so nervous about, but i'm also doing a speech which is fine. I'm not nervous about the speech, just the reading.

My Pa is coming to stay with us on Thursday night so I'm hoping he'll want to go to dinner and the movies or something. We will wait and see.

My plan to do TAFE at work on my early days has failed as I keep being unable to log in from their system so I'm going to make myself do it on the weekends for a few hours. It really should be something I can do. I just hate how it won't work, at work. :(

This weekend I dont really have plans so I'm hoping to focus a lot on my tafe work and get it sorted out ASAP.

That's about it for now.

Wedding Fame

Publishhhhheeeeddddd.

Our wedding has been featured in a few online blogs. Quite Exciting. :)

If I were Rich

Oh the things I would do.

I know that money doesn't buy happiness but it sure as hell does hell. Not worrying about bills and being able to just live life and enjoy it in all aspects. It would be so granddd.

If I were rich I would be so excited. I'd travel, and I'd buy more houses but if I were just a little bit rich I'd still love to do up my housey that Tallboy and I have. I LOVE our housey but it NEEDS a lot of work.

Oh the thingssssssssss I do.
I'd do up my home with floorboards, a fresh coat of paint, wallpaper feature walls, and a deck. Oh it would be glorious. My walls would have a straight wall collage (not the crooked one that I've done and now had to rip off the walls and take chunks of paint with it) I'd have black and white photos of tallboy and I.

My bathrooms would have the fluffiest giantest bath towels, my shampoo and conditioner would be an endless supply of Kerestase, my make up would consist of Mac and Clinique.

My dogs would have a personal groomer so they had that show quality brush out, not the measly 'I've been brushing you for half an hour and you're still a mess look.'

Then after living in our house for a few years Tallboy and I could buy another house right on the beach (because we'd be rich) and it would be Oh so magical.

I just love my house but I hate having to wait to fix it up. It will be worth it, but waiting sucks. Lotto?

updateeee dayyyyy

What a crazy busy week!
Monday night I caught up with H with some work girls as she was back from her swing away, I got to catch up with Mumma Stace too and that was so nice. It was a really nice evening. I basically inhaled my salad for dinner - eating healthy again is harddddd.
On Tuesday night Memma and I decided to go on an impromptu dinner date to a local cafe near her house, the meals were delicious (we had reef on reef with Salad) and the stories we went on about were highlarious. So that was really nice.

Today I had a hectic day at work and I still currently have a headache. Hopefully I get an awesome sleep tonight to sleep it off. After work I had to go and buy a spare tyre for my car, I felt so grown up doing that, how lame.

In regards to the goals I set on sunday night so far I've stepped up in terms of my skin routine and trying to be more productive.
I have failed with dog walking, manicuring nails and study.
Baby steps guys, baby steps.

Tomorrow I finish work at 4pm so I'm hoping to get a whole pile of house stuff sorted.
Friday night I don't have anything planned so I'll try to do a few hours of study.
Saturday I will have a few random things to do and then it's my future sister in laws hens night so I need to choose an outfit for that and myself, lovechild and Memma are meeting her and her friends in the City.
Sunday I'll hopefully get myself together and work on a meal plan.

So that's it for now. Pretty average lifestyle I guess. Just full on, but I'm happy and I love it and I love my Tallboy.

Sunday 29 July 2012

25 and mid year resolutions

So in order to write this post I really should have looked at what my 'new year resolutions' were first, but I can't be bothered doing that right now. This is just a quick entry.

I turned 25 on Friday, I went to work and was spoilt by Memma, Ball of Love, Doops, all my department, Lois, TallBoy sent me balloons and Love Child was the sweetest sending me wonderful flowers which really moved me. It was a good day, I made a terrible cake without sugar and my coworkers were polite about it. Yay for my baking skills.

That night Tallboy and I had reservations at one of Perth's finest restaurants 'C' restaurant.  I had been quite sick that week so I asked him to cancel it so we could eat chinese food, sit in our track pants and watch bad TV. That is exactly how I spent my 25th birthday night and it was amazing. I really needed it.

Saturday I spent the day with friends and saturday night I caught up with Mortgage 25.

It was a good weekend, today I did nothing. I have come down with a chest infection so I needed a day in bed and on the couch. Sucks that it hasn't quite shifted yet.

So I don't know what's brought on my new focus but as I had been quite down during the week missing my mum and it being so close to a birthday I think I gave myself a bit of a wake up call. I haven't been looking after myself at all. I've been quite reckless with my lifestyle, my body and my choices.

Health has always been something I've been lazy with, completely taken it for-granted and skin care too. I know exactly what time period I gave up on looking after myself, I know exactly when I became depressive and lacked regard for myself. It's been too long and I need to get myself together, I'm 25 now, that's time to officially grow up. Last week I went on a carb and sugar binge and my skin has paid for it and also with getting continuously sick I know I need to get my act together.

So my new focus is to be selfish with what I do, I need to force myself to get into a new routine, with food, body, lifestyle and study. I need to instead of sit on the couch, walk the dogs, take my make up off and fix my chipped nail polish. I need to study at least a few hours every week. & I'm finally going to make myself do it.

I do as I said before currently have a chest infection so instead of hitting the gym hard I will just ensure that I walk the dogs daily until I'm all cleared up.
I'm going to ensure that when I get home from work the first thing I do is take off my make up and do my new skin care regime (Natio Young products are working wonders.)
I will also set up a time frame for each weeknight that I do, do the required study time.

These are things that I'm working on, i'm working on being more positive. I love whinging, I think to me whinging and complaining is a comfort. I have had some terrible things happen in my life, I have had a broken heart for too many years now but I need to grow and try to mend.

I will get there.

Friday 27 July 2012

fabulaassssssssss

I love the show the new girl because I love Zooey Deschanel.
So many of my friends have said that her quirky character, Jess Day on the show reminds them of me.
I have to agree.
I really am that loveable and annoying all at the same time, plus i'm highlarious.


loveeeee

I forgot how obsessed I used to be with Rory and Jess' relationship.

I am exhausted so i'm writing a list of what I have to blog about tomorrow morning:

- wingman
- twinners housey

I luff my Memma

So my Memma was away from work for a full 3 weeks, the longest we've ever been apart from each other. She came back to work this week and I have been so happy again - no more separation anxiety, yay for me!

(When she was gone and I was doing her work, her desk looked like this)



It's so funny thinking of the first time we met each other at work (apart from a brief encounter through friends of friends the year before?) we were scared of each other. Haha we both knew, that we both knew the same people and knew of each other outside of work so it was awkward, so we avoided talking to each other for the first 2 - 4 weeks of working with each other & then one day I think I just talked to her about a mutual party or something and who knows we hit it off.

(The first time we met each other without thinking we'd know each other in future…awks)


Memma and I have one of the weirdest but best friendships ever, it's hard to describe but we just 'get' each other and we can actually spend 8 hours a day together 5 days a week and still want to hang out on weekends (we have something very wrong with us.)


It's weird that someone who is younger than you can be kind of inspiring, she's just very put together for someone who should be so all over the place. She has the best heart and she tries so hard in every aspect of her life, it makes me try harder to achieve things and also to try and be better with my family.

She's always looking out for me, even though I'm bigger and older than her. Haha Silly Kid, but I totes appreciate it.


Oh and she's the best singer ever, it's annoying. Stop being so good at stuff.

Wildfox why you so expensive?

So I'm doing Birthday online shopping as my gift to myself from Tallboy. So far I have bought some accessories online and I have enough 'Birthday money' left to get a dress or item of clothing. I'm struggling with what to choose. The things I like are terribly expensive and my ever tempremental body image issue currently has me uncertain about what I can / should wear… anyway I stumbled across Wildfox.
*sigh*
Wildfox why you so expensive? Seriously :( wah. $117 for a jumper? I agree it is a gloriously amazing jumper that looks incredible on the model (I'd look so frumpy) and I would definitely only wear this around the house because it looks like an amazingly warm jumper as if you'd walk around with a heater on you. Perfect lounge clothing. I couldn't pull it off wearing it in public.


Anyway I'm trying to find a dress. It's hard shopping online though, I'm very much 'over' buying things online because you can't try them on (I mean you can once purchased, but then returning it and all that, blah, WAY too hard.)

I love the brand finders keepers and I really like this dress but I'm trying to figure out if it'll suit me or not. It pulls it at the waist which would be great at the moment because I've lost a stack of weight from my waist. I am going to have a think about this one :) 

Anyway apart from that I'm starting my no sugar and no carbs lifestyle again tomorrow, I weighed myself yesterday and since the start of the year I've lost 10kg however, I celebrated a bit too much this weekend and ate so much food (extremely bad food) and I didn't do any exercise this weekend. So I need to get back on track, the withdrawal headaches are going to suck. But I'm fairly determined to get back in to the 65-69kg range again. My ultimate goal weight it 65kg and to be able to stay at that weight. Keeping it off is the biggest challenge apparently losing it is the 'easy' part. gahhhhhhh. 

I want to go back to thisssssssss…
Skinny tummy (pre-boob job. naww teeny boobs haha)
small armssss

Cute butt, 1cm 'love handles' yesssss pleaseeeee.

This was only 4 years ago, of courseeee I can lose all my weight in 4 months, it only took 4 years to put it all on, OF course I can lose it quickly (Was totes being sarcastic) 




The most EPIC weekend of all time

wow that title was a build up wasn't it? Anyway, I was totes kidding, i've had one of the most uneventful weekends on the planet.

On Friday night I came home and made healthy home made pizzas with Tallboy and his best friend. Then I chilled out and just watched youtube.

On Saturday I did some cleaning with Tallboy but I quickly gave up, then I went to the shops to get Balloflove a birthday present, I went to get my hair cut but everywhere was too busy to do it, I went to get my lip pierced but it was too expensive. So I went and bought some wine. Wine is ALWAYS logical. Then I drank some wine and attempted to study which F.Y.I is actually really hard when you don't have a home office, a printer, or a scanner. So I only managed to do 14% but hey at least it's a start. I'm going to try and do an hour each night after work. Then after 5 hours of trying to study and slowly going insane I gave up and went to a BBQ.

Today I got up after the most magical sleep, then I went to lunch with have chat, it was awesome. I came home and was so bored so I decided that I would cut my hair, badddddd idea. I am not a hair dresser, I also put bleach in some parts of my hair, BADDDDDDD IDEAAAAA. I should not touch my hair when I'm bored. ugh so terrible. I'm also having terrible skin and a fat day, so now I look like an acne riddled, fat, teenage boy. Terrible.



So that concludes my most epic weekend ever.

My Favourite Things

My Favourite Things

1 - Reminiscing about the nights I won't remember with the friends I'll never forget. So many times when I was younger I would got out with the RHG and we would have the best times and now those are the stories we go on about over and over again, we don't get tired of them. Even the new ones I make like when I was the best wingman on the planet for Lovechild, Partner and Ginger.

2 - Punk Rock - I love punk rock, I used to be an 'emo', I'd dye my hair, pierce my lip, got tattoos, went to every live show I could, I would catch the train an hour out from where I lived just to buy C.D's and I'd spend majority of my pay on new albums, or concert tickets. I still love Punk Rock, I hate that I really struggle getting the motivation to get to gigs now due to the times they play. old. 

3 - Writing- I used to write all the time, I used to write stories, I used to write poems, lyrics, letters. I used to keep journals, online diaries. This blog is a bit like that I suppose but I don't treat it like a secret, I don't particularly have any secrets anymore. 

4 - Overcast skies - overcast weather is my favourite, always has been since one day in high school during P.E it got over cast, it was a warm day with a slight breeze but something about that weather makes me happy.

5 - Driving down Warnbro Beach Road listening to Play Crack the Sky by Brand New. 

I just found some old photossssssssss, it's reminiscing time you guysssssss. I didn't care then, so i'm not going to care now. <3 (I should really make these into a slideshow with Brand New - Soco Amaretto Lime playing) eeeee happy.
