*Going to Christchurch with Ash for a few days in winter next year :) yay
*Also Nutella sandwiches are better than sex
that is all

Chocolate

I don't care what men say. Chocolate helps. It's keeps me sane, makes me feel good, eases uterine cramps.
My chocolate obsession once a month is not a bad thing.

Stressed

A little bit stressed as to how the next week and a half is going to unfold...
2 major exams worth 50% on Wednesday...
1 more exam next Monday
Then Adelaide next Wednesday..
But I have to have ALL my stuff, packed and stored somewhere in the mean time..
Ahh

I blame Miss AC

i think im happy
this is what I want right?

I have a new blog

I am not neglecting this one,
as this contains my day to day ramblings..
However, I have made a new blog, which will consist of weekly photos that I have taken and want to share.

D-day

So today I went on a date...
Something which I have previously avoided and was quite anxious to actually do.
I've never gone on a 'date' with someone I haven't already known before...
But it actually wasn't bad.. I can actually make conversation with someone I don't know :)
Who would have thought? haha.
Next 'date' is already planned though.. I feel like I need some time to come to terms with the one I just had... sigh... what the hell am I getting myself in for?

Back on the Coast

- Unpacked and enjoying the very pleasant weather
- New TV shows to get captivated by
- Have to work tomorrow... but not a long shift..
- Missed Lexi so letting her sleep in my bed tonight.. will decide if this is a good or bad idea in the morning
- getting a new fancy camera soon - exciting things to come :)
- peace and quiet, might get some sleep.. zzz
(not sure why I'm in dot points tonight, just how I was feeling)

TWLOHA 2010

Bad Day

Today was a not so good day..

Starting the day with less that 6.5 hours sleep didn't help.

Hadn't finished my readings for one of my classes.

Then found out I had a mid semester exam to complete today... completed it, and failed!

20% of my grade gone..

Then had a Drs appt, wanting him to tell me how to help my sore wrist and came away needing an xray and ultrasound for a suspected fracture.

Getting teased at home didn't help either.  I didn't want sympathy, I just wanted understanding. A fracture isn't nothing and sorry I can't open a jar... make ur own f*cken chicken!

To Write Love on Her Arms

I would love it if as many people could get involved in this as possible! This September the 25th, write the word "LOVE" on your arm and dare to share it with the world via a simple photograph!

This is such a fantastic cause!

It's seems such a small, insignificant gesture, but the more people that get behind this and participate; it helps to raise awareness for people suffering from depression and/or self harm. You CAN help! We can reduce the stigma and get these life threatening issues out in the open!

Welcome Lexi!

Lexi is going to be the most spoilt kitten ever!
We've already gone out and bought her everything from bio-degradable kitty-litter to cat toys, pink bowls, sparkly collar etc... she's very cute tho.  Well worth the expense!
She is beautiful and going to fit in here very well!

But Smurf better sleep with one fish-eye open...

What's a Joke?

Some people have a sick sense of humour!

It is not funny to anonymously threaten people and tell them that they are being watched and that they'd better watch their back!

What part of that is funny?

Especially since sinister things have happened around this neck of the woods as recently as a few weeks ago!

Not cool!

Diet Assessment Down yay!

S

So I survived the diet assessment interview! yay!
Wasn't that bad, I can do this :)
Admittedly I haven't analysed it in food works yet.. but still, feeling good so far!

Anthropometry

Anthropometry: "the comparative study of sizes and proportions of the human body".

Add in: Diet assessement, food evaluation, measurement of body composition (6+ times this semester!)

How the hell am I going to do this??

So after feeling sorry, sore and bruised all of yesterday, I have come to the conclusion that absinthe must only be consumed when you are with people you know really well and trust.  I have black holes in my memory of events that occured only 2 days ago..
So I am not drinking for a while and going to be practicing responsible drinking.
I wouldnt say I regret the events of the other evening, but it has left me feeling empty...

I LOVE this dress

Fell in love with a dress today, but alass I cannot find it in my size. Oh well I guess it wasn't in my budget anyway..

Stairway to eternity

Apparently this picture is an illusion not just photoshopped like you would think.

Regardless I think it's a pretty cool pic!

 

Do you want a clown to run your country?

I hope that every Australian uses their right to vote in this up coming election wisely.  Electing Abbott to be in power of our nation would be a huge mistake.  Not only would Australia's economy go backwards under his leadership; he just doesn't care about the financial welfare or job security of the average Aussie.  When discussing Work-Place Laws he says: "Shit happens..."
Abbott also publicly demeans women.  We all know what he thinks about a woman's place in society and that it is severely out-dated.  But did you know this guy has daughters?  It's bad enough that the person running for leadership of our country has backward "gender role" ideals, inline with the 1950's, but what father would want his daughters grow up in a society that emphasises a woman's place as a house wife with only domestic duties to aspire to?
I know what my vote will be when August 21st comes around!

Back to the coast but not to unicentral

Werid feeling as the count down begins to return to the coast.  4 days to go..

But I will not be returning to the excitement of meeting the new-comers at central.  The peace and quiet at Mooloolaba awaits... which is what I wanted. Right?

I think I miss UniCentral!

But I think in reality I miss what became of UniCentral last semester.  I miss the friends and the good times that were had.  Constant change while fun and entertaining at the start becomes hard for those left behind.

Afterall UniCentral is but a place, the friendships made will continue regardless of where we are.

Learning Experience

negative...

Fly Away

Ready for a new adventure..

Just watched the season 3 finale of Private Practice!

Dell dies! :-( devestated! 

Today is a New Day

Today is a new day and hence holds a world full of possibilities.

So I'm lying in my bed this morning drinking my cup of tea and eating coconut chocolate (a discovery thanks to ELowe), listening to the storm outside, not yet ready to venture out from the warmth of my bed. And I was thinking; deep down we all know right from wrong, so why do we constantly make wrong decisions? Wrong for us on an individual level, wrong for someone we care about, wrong for our peers or wrong for a by-stander we don't know. On some level our decisions influence the people around us, but generally the one most greatly effected by a wrong decision is ourselves. So why do we do it? I'm not talking peanut butter or vegemite for breakfast, but things that will have some bearing on the future...
I for one am now choosing to make the right decisions in my life that will inevitably impact me and those I love in a positive way.
Today is a New Day!
