YouCam, your my hero.

Dad and I got new laptops yesterday and I'm very impressed. We set them up on the dining table across from eachother and were busily organising away while now and again commenting on something, or asking how the others was working lol it was cute.

What I did find, in between naming pink cat clocks 'Geroge' and recording me and my brother singing 'We are Australian' (LOL) was YouCam. So halarious. Me and my brother mucked around on it for ages, then mum joined in, then, reluctantly, dad also. Many photos. I think they are really funny.

So last night I get a phonecall at 1:30am, miraciously, from Bonnie. WOAH didn't see that one coming. Long story short, she spent her night at Floorspace in the cross, had a great time, was very impressed. She also got free entry after running into one of the house DJs from Purple Sneakers she's been helping out which I though was pretty cool. For all the time Bon's put into handing out flyers and going to events to talk to people about The Purple Sneakers NYE House party @ Manning Bar Sydney Uni (lol shameless name drop) it's nice that she gets some of the perks that come with knowing some people in the industry!
So, good for her.

Anyway that about it.
Thanks Compaq.

Woahh, Ahhh

Yes, as the title suggests I'm listening to muscles, getting psyched for NEVEREVERLAND!
Only 2 weeks to go! Can't wait. That also means 2 weeks to my birthday which is exciting.

So I'm working 7-4 today. I did not want to get up when my alarm went off, had a shocking sleep I was so restless. So tomorrow is C's birthday, unfortunetly I forgot to get her present yesterday in light of all the mayhem that is Christmas shopping (40 minutes to find a parking spot, anoying crowds and general unrest lead to us turning around and going home - empty handed) and so maybe I will be heading to the kings for some drinks if she decides to go out.

Thursday me and Bon are heading back to Sydney so I can have a little visit and generally wreak the normal havoc we do when thrown together ;)
Let you know how it goes.

I am a banshee

So I got my hair done yesterday. And it's mutilated.
Nevermind the fact that she cut off 10 yeards of my very hard hair growth progress, but the colours from the chart she showed me did not translate in any way to the end result. And $160 later lets just say not happy jan!!
So I'll have to somehow rectify it. With mum's money. Lol isn't she great.
I did see saw my natural colour for a brief and shining time, for one whispy second I thought I might like it then I was like err no. HELL NO. Never. lol.

So scholarship deadline for uni is today. Needless to say I haven't sent it in have I!
I hate that I leave everything to the last second, and am so indecisive. I know it's my subconscious trying to delay things yet again and I really can't seem to help it. I also haven't yet heard back from uni about accommodation. Which is a little worrying because I was really confident walking out of my interview, but I hope I should hear back in the next couple of weeks. I really don't have a clue what I'll do if this doesn't pan out. I guess that's why plan B's come in handy. I've never been one to have them, personally. I like things to come together the first time! Let's see if I can fluke my way again.

INTRODUCTIONS

I like walks, the sunset, alternatively the sunrise, the sea, the feel of sand when you squish your toes in it, a good cup of tea, a real good belly laugh, the smell of freshly cut grass, the feel of the sun on a really hot day, the satisfaction of doing something right the first time, my room and that I have a little rainforest outside my window, when people appreciate my cooking, walking out of foodworks when im finished work without a backward glance, kit kat temptations and good company. Amoung other things.


I have an adverse fear of gaps, particularly those present between the train platform, and on boardwalks. Yes, like at the beach.


I have a bad habit of pouring a cup of tea and leaving it to sit, only to come back an hour later and realise I actually wanted that cup of tea.


I have a weakness for alcohol, I am a surprisingly fast sprinter and, and I share a birthday with Beethoven and Jane Austen.


OK, so now the introductions are over..
I've decided to come back to blogging after a rather long hiatus.

One reason for me coming back to this writing thing is because I'm starting my uni course year, majoring in English, and figured I should get back to my roots. Also, it's great to have a place to vent at the end of the day/week, especially where I am now.
Where is that?

Hopelessly devoted to...foodworks. I'm a slave..for foodworks. I moan on about this place to anyone who will listen, but deep down its not as bad as I go on. I don't really like it, but there are good parts, and not so good parts - like any job. I've had an interview for campus accomo at UNSW, accepted my deferred place doing a BoA, and I'm ITCHING to get to Sydney. N
numerous concerts, festivals, shopping trips, near tattoos, near disasters, alot of money spent, alot of experience gained, and I know I have so much more in store when I FINALLY move there.
Life in Bathurst is dull. I've lost contact with so many people, as I'm so consumed with my day job I can't really find the time to pick up lost or waning connections. In a way I'm sad to leave behind a life that has done me pretty well the past 16 or so years of my life, but at the same time I think I need to move on. I know I have alot of growing to do as a person, and I've done about as much growing here as I can.

Anyway this turned into a bit of a rant, I guess it isn't so hard to write once you start.
