Havnt posted in ages so thought i would.
so a whole lot has been going on lately. many oxford st/vegas nights, went and saw british india last weekend, who were amazing, had garths studio opening in surry hills, and am seeing little red this weekend which will be good. its bons 21st in a couple of weeks which is exciting, looking fwd to that. and the strokes in 2 weeks!! still working on securing a ticket but shouldnt be too hard, pays to have connections :) have been drinking way too much, and as a consequence have been sick on and off the past couple of months which is anoying, but owell, price you pay to have some fun. work is shit. got call centre job, but honestly, my job makes me want to kill myself. so i didnt show up yesterday, or today. i dont see the point in working a job you dont like. its pointless, and makes me miserable all the time. so ive applied for heaps of others and hoping something comes up. the bookstore is still going ok, a few people have gone overseas so hoping to pick up some more shifts, see how i go. am 3 weeks behind in rent, my landlord hasnt contacted me about it yet which is good but damn i need some money!! anyway thats really it, tres boring.
laters.

It's been a long time coming...
So, I don't even know the last time I updated this thing. And I can't really be bothered to go into any real depth about catching up on what jhas been missed.
Short and sweet?
The last few months have been, in their entirety, uneventful. Boring. A waste of time, really. I am completely and utterly wasting my time, and my life.
I am working a job, where after being promised a certain amount of hours, have been completely pushed to the bottom , working 2 shifts, 8.5 hours a week. It has gotten to the point where I cannot pay my rent, or buy groceries, or have any quality of life, because I am so stressed about money. FUCK MONEY. why does it have to be the thing to make the world go round? why can't I function without it? So, I've been very unsuccessfully searching for work, for months, and finally, the day after sending in a resume to my friends work, I've secured a job interview for tomorrow. It's at a call centre in mascot, which is convenient, $22.50/hr, brilliant, and if I slave away for the nxt 5-6 months (I've already been advised they hire everyone they interview) then I have my ticket to England for November, my ticket to Bali for January, and a whole lot on the side. I hate to think that money is the most important thing in my life, even above my own happiness, but it is. Hopefully not for too much longer though.
Rant, over.

Welcome to twentyten
Well well well so it's the new year and post numero uno.
I have been meaning to do alot of catch-ups lately but really, I can't be bothered. Besides the fact that it's the new year now, clean slate.
So NYE was spent working, then went to Emily's roof for drinks with a bunch of people for drinks and 9:00 fireworks, then to this guy Elliot's roof for more drinks, and its 10:30. melanie has been heavily drinking since 7:30 (yes, not that long, but re-read the "heavily" part) and is passing out on the roof, so everyone decided to send me home. It was new years so I was like heck no, so after a mini pass out on the street I find a cab and set out to house party at rose bay. $40 later, a lot of babble on my part, alot of humoring on my taxi drivers, and the use of his mobile phone I find Bonnie and am there in plenty of time before the 12.00 fireworks. It gets to about 4am (maybe) and I decide it's time to go home after a little domestic with Bonnie and Axel, head home only to find a new friend at the Shell who I preceeded to drink with out the front of a closed pub till 6am the next morning. Talk about an epic night, many funny memories.
Mum and Pat came to stay with me for a week after Xmas, which by the way was very fun. I got home from Syd with Bon, in time for Nattas xmas eve party, alot of food and drink later its home to bed. Xmas day is spent at nattas again, great, pool, LOADS of food, way too much drink and 3 breakages later I'm banned from drinking out of glasses on boxing day. met my mums cousins new wife grace and her daughter joshie, who are from fiji, and the NICEST people ever. Have invited me to come over and stay this year. lets see if I can save and do it. Boxing day, mums bday, and the same crew and then some from xmas and boxing day are back over. talk about 3 day bender. me and matt manage to get through a carton of jim beam, and to myself conquered a 6 pack of canadian club and 3 bottles of champers. needless to say was tres messy, but had a blast drinking with all the boys. Gets to about 8pm and Bon arrives, ready to hit the town, so more drinking then we head to the irish pub in town where we run into cam, mick, drew, will, chris and the rest of the boys. had a great night catching up with all, and lloydy even made an appearance out! good times.
Anyway so back to mum and pat staying, had a great 8 days, completely revamped the flat, it looks so great, mum put so much into it and it really payed off. we did alot of shopping, saw avatar in 3D (AMAZING!!!!!) went to the beach and went out to dinner alot. liss and karen came to stay for 3 days at the end of the week and so it was a pretty full house. went to china town for dinner and had an outraegously overpriced and underwhelming meal, and then I was off to go out with emily. had drinks at her's and ended up having a very messy night at the usual places, brighton and oaf, met up with tia and mostly hung with her, in between meet and greets with the skater boys. headed home early that morning, about 6ish, and met up with sahal (this is the guy I was hanging out with on new years, who just so happens to live up the street with me) so i stayed over at his again which was good. They all left that tuesday, after some more intense shopping and a great breaky, and I was alone again.
2 days later simon came home, and the house has been buzzing with people since, its been great. him being away in thailand for a month meant home was VERY quiet.
thurs night I randomly went down to gordons bay at 1am with meow for a drinking sesh on the rocks - was seriosuly sooo nice. ended up getting through the better part of a goon bag and was completely trashed. had such great concersations though was really cool to hyang out with him, he has so much interesting things to say.
next morning we went and had brunch, well more afternoon tea, at a cafe in waverly which was nice, then i went home to sleep, was pooped.
went out on saturday, and a quiet night of not drinking ended up being something much bigger. spent the day at gordons bay with bon where some guys had set up decks in their mansion overlooking the bay and were pumping out the tunes, was heaps cool, then came home and chatted with the boys for a bit, then the propsal, then went to bons to get ready, saxons for drinks, then the gaslight with all the guys. turned out to be apretty big night, and i hardly spent any money thanks to the genorosity of a french man. walked into randwick junction from bons and met up with sahal and his friend, this is around 6am as usual haha, and me and sahal ended up going back to mine to hang out.
So thats this year so far, its been good. eventful, which is good.
I had a chance to be in a bluejuice music video in neutral bay yesterday, but had to pull out last min due to unforseen circumstances, sooo shattered. back to work tomorrow after 2 days off, and alot of the o.c. thurs im going vintage shopping with emily and shopping fri with bon, then last purple sneakers on fri night. sunday arvy im going home for 4 days (AND FINALLY GETTING MY NEW NOKIA E71!!!! phew, excitement), thurs im helping out at boundary sounds office woith press clippings, and fri is BDO!!!! so pretty busy schedule for the next 2 weeks, which is always good.
emily is moving into her new place in chippendale, a couple of streets over from her old place actually, at the end of the month, so that'll be exciting getting her all set up. iylia was going to live with her but that didnt work out for alot of reasons, so she wants me to move in. as much as i'd like to i really cant afford it at the moment, its $80 more a fortnight and doesnt include bills, so not really much of a better deal tahn i have here, even with a tres desireable location. we'll see what happens if i can get myself a full time job i guess.
anyway i guess thats really it. this ended up being a bit bigger than i thought, so much to say, as always, finally had the time to be able to write it.

Birthday reminders via email..
Ahhh it has been a while, so much to update I don't know where to begin.
So I'll start at G-Shock - Shock the World Tour last month - crazy night. Came a bit late so missed most of it, but did catch the tail end of the bar tab - the monstoruos bar tab. Went to Prom at Hot Damn afterwards which was good.
Mum and bro came to visit, have I mentioned this? I don't know but that was nice.
Spent the last month or so worth of weekend with Emily and Iylia - Q Bar Thurs nights and Brighton/OAF Fri and Sats. Never a dull moment with those two.
Had my work xmas party last weekend, went on a harbour cruise, with all you can eat and drink - hectic thats all I can say. Got absolutely slaughtered and walked off the boat with 4 beers down my shirt, yelling about it as we went haha my manager wont let me live it down.
Simon has gone to Thailand for a month so have the place to myself - just me and the cat. Have been bored out of my mind so resorted to cleaning the house obsessively. Upside, it's never been so clean.
Tomorrow night I'm having my birthday party at my house, predrinks, then heading to Newtown to sample the pubs - been a while so should be a nice change.
Having a combine bday dinner with Axel nxt Tues night, Mexican in Glebe, which should be nice.
My actual birthday is nxt wednesday so going home for the night, finally be watching new moon!!!! WOOOOOOO im excited haha. And hopefully getting my Nokia E71 for my pressie, I want one sooooo bad. Have actually started receiving reminders for my own birthday? Lol strange.
Still dont have any plans for new years as yet but we'll see.
Anyway this is more for me to remember than to really tell a story, next one will be a little more exciting I hope, after tomorrow nyt!
Blah blah blah thats it.

Bound to linger on..
Lights black,
Heads bang
You're my drug,
We live it
You're drunk, you need it
Real love, I'll give it.
I need you to need me.
Just listening.
No actual updates tonight, although much to say about Oxford St nights, bands and boys, bush doofs, beaches, stalkers and everything else in between. Another night, yeah.

Love Kills, LB says so
I have sooooo much to update, but it's like 1am and I'm too tired. And too lazy.
You should go to my twitter. It's all happening over there.
http://www.twitter.com/lalalane_
Tonight I was looking at a thumbnail of this guy and I thought he had sleeves, so I clicked to have a closer look and realised it wasn't tattoos. It was hair. ALOT of hair.
Also, upon walking home from the bus stop after work I noticed Clovelly Rd was blocked off by a police car. I thought it must have been a car accident or something and didn't really think too much of it, then tonight Bon told me there was a murder/suicide. Down the road from my house. 2 people dead and a baby stabbed. SHIT! http://www.smh.com.au/national/police-find-man-and-adult-daughter-dead-child-stabbed-20091109-i578.html
AND finally, here is what I listened to tonight. It's sooo catchy.

Proper updates later.

500 days of ?
I just finished watching 500 days of summer. it was a little disapointing. i guess i'm a sucker for a cliched ending.
anyway its that time again. things are going ok lately, looking up i guess. or about to.
i got a job at a discount bookstore in bondi junction and its going well so far. its fantastic that it only takes me 5 or so minutes on the bus to get to work. so amazing.
the people im working with are nice, seem agreeable and easygoing which is good. i love the work, i just need to make sure i concentrate on getting the job instead of constantly flicking through books i want to buy. i seriously have a list half a page long of what i wanna buy come pay day :-) wellll maybe in a few pay days time - rent still priority one, and im not making quite enough to cover that yet.
so i've been seeing alot of em and iylia lately, going out wise. stayed at their place thurs-sat and it was epic, EPIC. let me reiterate this for you, epicccc. We didn't sleep or eat for 3 days, just drank and drank and drank. it was fantastic because i didnt have a hangover - but everything caught up fairly quickly sat night. thurs we went to q bar, which was ok. my first time there and i dont know if i'd bother going back. the smoking area is a joke, some guy pushed me over just to get through lol stacked it down some stairs pretty good and have a gnarly bruise. lucky i was drunk and didnt actually feel any pain. picked up a friend, ben, and took him home with us, where we continued drinking smoking and chatting at ems till about 1 in the afternoon, then we took the goon bag to the roof and layed in the sun. it was sooo nice, i couldnt think of a better way to spend the day. got to about 6 and we headed inside, decided we should have a micro sleep (by micro i mean about 40 min) then it was back to jack in preparation for british india!! which was amazing, me and nic pretty much stared at eachother the whole time. doubtful he recognised me, but had a nice stare anyways. then headed to oxford arts, brighton, there was alot of drinking, some fighting and me and em parted ways, some the skater boys and ended up at glebe house. a little too much drink, and a bit too much green, and i found myself on the bathroom floor with a new best friend aka the toilet. woke up with my head in the bowl about 8am the nxt day, toilet bowl bruises on my chin and all, legendary, haha then crashed in beau's room till i found emily wandering around about 1pm. then it was back hm, treck to maccas, and back to eat it at ems. while shirtless male models walked around her house. it was amazing.
anyway that was my epic couple of days. i dnt think ill be up for any more benders for a little while.
ive yet to go visit em at her new place in mosman so thats on the books, me and bon are catching up this week for a movie/goon night which will be good, and ive still been talking to sam - who i met a couple of weekends ago. see what happens there.
anyway this is a shockingly written blog, and excuse the lack of/absence of punctuation. just recordings, thats all.
adios.

Why does it always rain on me?
Today I woke up around 7am, already intent on the fact that I did not want to, nor was going to, go to work. So I messaged my excuse and that was that. I preceeded to sleep in until 12, made some honey on toast and crashed back into bed to watch tv series on my laptop. I continued to pick at food I didn't actually want, smoke ciggarette I didn't actually need and watch pointless tv to pass the time - and that was my day. I got a message from my boss saying he has hired someone new aka I'd become redundant, I got a message from my other boss saying he'd see me at work tomorrow - and having already lost one job, I didn't know how I was going to go about quitting the other - as it's just not working out.
So, I've almost made a full circle, and it seems I'm back to the beginning. No job, back into old habits, and 2 weeks for something amazing to pop up, or my parents are making me move back home. And I really don't want to leave Sydney!!
While on Seek tonight, trying to apply for any which job I came across, I found my ideal job at a magazine megastore opening on King St in Newtown. I want this job soooo bad. And so I really hope I get it. Check out the website, I swear, it's my heaven. Anything that can combine magazines and stationary, only my two fave things, has to be good. www.magnation.com/index.php
So that's where I am. I sat on the balcony for ages this afternoon, blowing through the last of my ciggarettes and thinking to myself, when, if ever, does life become easy? I don't mean to say I have it hard over other people, because I completely understand I don't. You only need to turn on a television or open a newspaper to realise that, but on a comparative scale, not comparing, how can you enjoy life when you are constantly stressed, lost, confused, and have no idea where you are - let alone where you want to be? I want so much for everything to work out, and yet I don't know how I can manage that.
When it rains, it pours..

well I'm employed! Got a job at a sales & marketing company in surry hills - so pretty chuffed. neverending job hunting, well, 4 weeks worth, finally paid off.
I've picked up Tae Bo again and am feeling great, even if my muscles don't really like me the next day... I am seriously counting the days down to summer! And beach time! And me and bon's TTT pact. Well, soon to be pact lol.
I'm loving Glee, sadly enough downloaded the soundtrack this afternoon.
Also did grocery shopping, and worked. Spent alot of time at bus stops, Sydney buses drive me mad, though thank goodness for the old man next to me at central who decided he wanted to make farting noises with his mouth for full 25 min we stood there. While occasionally having a break to comment on the weather. Fantastic, really.
So this week I have training for work Tues-Wed, Metronomy (WOO!) and have a friend from back home coming up to stay so good week ahead I think :-)
Thats bout it :-)

Uninteresting Event Updates: September Edition
I felt like updating and now I don't, but ohwell, it's been a while.
So, I got a weekend job at a little cafe in Enmore, and I'm really liking it.
I pretty much get to drink free coffee all day, listen to good music and (for the most part) serve cool people, so can't really complain. Oh wait, yes I can. Because it's me. And because it takes an hour and 3 buses just to get there at 10am Sat-Sun morning. Trivial, but ANOYING none-the-less, especially cos public transport in Syd is a joke. Not always, but nearly.
I gave uni the heave-ho, until next year atleast, to sort out myself and my priorities so see how that goes over the next couple of months.
I am so over job seeking it's not funny. I literally want to scream. If I ever look at a gumtree page again it will be too soon. Literally, because I'm just logging in now. Boooo.
So Coaster was a complete and utter failure. We got refused entry and abused and threatened physical abuse by a security guard on a power trip, who was "having a bad day", and caused us to have the worst weekend ever. Ended up getting in after 3 hours of trying but we had been crying heaps and lost Axel (who later we found in the hospital) so we left after an hour. A very successful hour of eating a hotdog which later made me sick, AND drumroll please.... loosing YET ANOTHER phone. Devo.
Me and Bon went to see Jamie T on Thursday and it was AMAZING. Such a fun show, sang along to every song and danced and left with no hearing, thanks to Bon.
Ended up at Phoenix Bar afterwards after meeting up with a friend of Bon's which was interesting, being a lesbian night. I danced the night away and had such a great time, it was so cool to not have guys complicating my night for once! Or me complicating my night because of a guy.
So today I am beaching it with Bon which will be good. Back to the job hunting and resume dropping next week, fingers crossed something pops up because I have one week left to find a job to support myself or I have to move back home to Bathurst :( It's fair enough though, my parents have been supporting me here all year, can't expect them to continue paying all that money while I'm getting no-where.
Soooo theres my uninteresting event updates. More soon.
:)
