Hey Guys and dolls, I think I've come to a conclusion that my blog would probably be updated twice a month lol, so many things have happened and I'm just too lazy to type it all out haha. Well, heres some of the stuff I remembered recently....

January 26 - Aus Day & MTV Lair Foreplay Gig & Triple J Hottest 100!

AUSTRALIA DAY! was just Oh So Awesome!!!, was at the Triple J Hottest 100 concert at Hyde Park in the arvo before heading off to the MTV Foreplay Gig featuring Kasabian (woot, they were hot), Jet (try-hards ahaha) and My Chemical Romance (awesome military jackets boys), it was a great experience, one cause I was invited and two, It was free and drinks were on the house! The only catch was it was filmed and aired live on MTV, although I doubt not many people saw that since not many have MTV hahaha.

The E-invite......

(best thing about being 18+....)

Well thats all folks, till next month hahaha.

The Week It Was.....

2007-01-20T14:03:30Z

Haven't been blogging for a while, so I though I'll do just that, blog - for now haha. A quick glance at the week it was....

Saturday 13 01 07- Shopping @ Parramatta with Mel, grabbed some good bragains and this one shop assistant was cute! a little persitent, but still cute, Sonny Bill Williams cute, except his name is Junior Toomalatai for those who are interested in looking him up.......

Sunday 14 01 07- Sick, tired, sick, tired you get the drift, needless to say, Panadol was my trusty ~~drug.~~

Monday 15 01 07 - SYDNEY COMEDY STORE - RAW COMEDY 07!
It was Mel's big night, I'll be lying if the rest of us supporters weren't nervous (Joey, Amanda, TN and I). We were all looking forward to the night and we weren't dissapointed! The first guy on stage went on about Paedophaelia crap, gross man. Yuck. There were a few British/Irish guys who were 'moderately' funny, can't believe one of them progressed to the next stage, that guy was prancing around trying to figure out what to say, ha! Shocking. Oh and there was this other Asian guy with dreadlocks who was a dead set ringer for Quan Yeomans from Regurgitator. But this Italian/ Greek guy who joked about his chocolate balls was pretty good even if it were filled with sexual innuendo, it didn't come a s close to the perverted sense of the first guy/ Mel's performance was funny hahaha, there was this guy who was sitting behind us laughing his head off, literally out- laughed the 4 of us combined! The entire room was laughing, even the row of hot guys sitting next to Joey were amused. Congrats nevertheless, she was the only girl who had the guts to not only turn up but, also to perform in front of LIVE strangers.

She’s the Man, man!

Tuesday 16 01 07 - Rest & Tennis

Wednesday 17 01 07- I got into B Planning @ UNSW! My first choice hurrah! Congrats to all the kids who got into what they wanted and to those going to further education/work etc, Best of luck!

Thursday 18 01 07 - Accepting the course was a breeze, enrolling was a bitch! a whole day to ge it sorted, even dad had to help me fix the documents and it was all good. Joey's last day here in Sydney, some of the guys/girls celebrated the night away and Kudos to yous! Gonna miss you heaps Joey! keep in touch, an entire year in France, how grand is that lol, the French food...the French men......the French Cognac....... Bonne voyage darl!

Friday 19 01 07 - Yes! Timetable is all sorted, 4 days instead of 5! the lesser the better! Have decided to buy an assortment of notebooks, thats all we need right?!?

Saturday 20 01 07 - Hot+Humid Day [HHD] Retail therapy+Air Conditioning = Bliss. Bought my notebooks and these cool T shirts where you can Scratch&Sniff- Yep, you heard right! Scratch the print, sniff, its this nice candy/fruity scent!!! I thought that was only limited to stickers, proved me wrong hahaha. Although, couldn't help but imagine *Mind wanders* 'Hey sniff this! *points to chest/pecs area* first you scratch, then you sniff! Presto! a nice scenty chest hahaha. Oh, I wonder if the shirt loses its scent if i keep washing it? hmmms. hope not, otherwise it'll defeat its purpose.

Sunday 21 01 07 - Hewitt Lost, I reckon Bec is a bad influence on him, if only Kim and him got together......

Thats all folks.

The sun reflected across his dark hair
As he sat in the middle of the green, eyes closed, mind wondering..
He looks over and meets your eyes, your face heats up
Smiles, the both of you and you realise thats him, he is
the mysterious one without the face..
that starred in your dreams

Today - Cricket, criket, lunch, cricket, shopping, tv, thats pretty much it. Been watching alot of Italian films these days, they're pretty good, Pinocchio, Asterix et Obelix contre Caesar and Vita e bella, La are worth checking out....

Kim Rossi Stuart in 'Pinocchio' (He looks pretty young for 38 LOL)

SYDNEY NYE FIREWORKS!

2007-01-01T10:26:35Z

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!

The fireworks were bloody fantastic and I was at a really good position (Dover Heights $30 pp) and the view was to die for.

New Years Resolution: 'Don't have one = no regrets!'

Post Boxing Day SALES

2006-12-28T09:28:15Z

It's been a crazy couple of days since Christmas and the shopping has been crazy, JUMANJI crazy I tell ya, especially at the annual stampeded at Pitt street Myers and George Stree David Jones, only managed to pick up a Mimco bag at 30% off, its mint green... and an Oroton wallet to match. The shoe section were pretty bad, there was this particular woman who snatched a pair of croc skin peep toe heels, a size 7.5, and she was freaking trying to squeeze them into her size 8.5 foot, it was disgusting, reminded me of the scence in Cinderella where one of the ugly step sisters was also attempting to squash her fat foot haha fat foot into the shoe. The whole place was a mess and I feel sorry for anyone who actually bought that particular pair of shoe. Lunch time came and the place was literally swamped with desparate shoppers, it seemed like they held onto their cash and cards before Christmas to splurge after the big day, escalators were people trains and there was news that a woman fainted at one cash register service desk in Melbourne's Myers - poor thing, well in my opinion, if you can't stand a push and shove, a few kicks and punches and good elbowing to the opponent, then why bother turning up if you're not up to it eh...hmms.

Yesterday was much better though, went to DFO Homebush and saw TN THE PANSY - idiot. Bought two pairs of Isabella Brown shoes, Marcs Baby Girl Pink stripe vest and two Giodarno Polo Shirts.

Here are some of the pics...
Giodarno Polo top - $30!

The Vest only set me back $35!, down from original RRP of $99, why not $99. 95?!

Isabella Brown Shoes - $70 for two pairs! hahaha

Went to Parramatta 3 hours later......
The parking was a nightmare for starters but we managed to find a carpark in under 10 minutes LOL. The line at Guess Store was too long so I didn't even bother going in, Myers was just as packed, picked up a Scanpan at 30% off haha and Sheridan King Towels at 20% off. Got my fluffy Angora wool hat at David Jones, satisfied with both stores, but customers were abit pushy, if they push you, push them back harder.
General Pants was pretty good, got a Something T shirt, Don't ask Amanda polka dot red hoodie jacket, and OMG, the guy serving me was like Gay literally, he had a tight singlet on, tight black skinny jeans and he was making these feminine manouveres with his arms alone, and then there was another blonde emoish guy, 190cm and he was even worse, although there was one guy who was indish-ish, he had this subtle smile and was pretty good looking, and he wore a nice tee, not a tight singlet, so he was the clear winner hahaha. And his hair was the same colour as Demetri MAARTIN !, chok if you're reading, you'll be pleased to know :) but dammit if only i had taken a pic of him for the world to see hahaha.. *cough*
Decided to buy these cute elephant cups at Bevilles cause they were elephant cups, you can't go wrong with that.. sheesh. they were half price so woopie, oh and also bought a Swiss Army Knive, i finally have my own! mum goes the other pairs we have at home are better than the one i bought, meh.

These cute cups were only $4.95!! 50% OFF, froma measley $10.00...

$20! hurrah it was reduced from $59.95, only $20 big ones for a jacket! I don't remember buying jackets or shirts for $20 hahaha, lucky eh, this girl even came up to me and offered to pay double that for it, piss off girl, first come, first serve and serves you right!

I absoultely LOVE this Tee shirt, it was by pure chance that I grabbed it randomly, I was literally surroundered by these pushy biatches and I was like thats it, I'm gonna grab heaps and observe them at another rack or something, I did exactly that and i scored well hahaha, it was the last tee shirt of its kind, well at Parramatta's GP anyway... and needless to say, the queue was so long and the gay guy took his sweet (skinny) ass time, whilst chatting on the phone and observing his damn nails...

Today - cricket, thats pretty much it, great way to relax, not that its boring, well only when the Poms play, but that Alistair guy is pretty damn good looking, oh wells. Brett Lee has some wrinkles now, according to my calculations, the first time i was into him was back in 5th grade (1999), he was 23 then, so he'll probably be 30 at least. hmmms. 30 is the new 20 anyway so i'll just stop here.
GOOD DAY AND GOOD NIGHT.
