you’ve got to be kidding me! stalking myspace, found some things I don’t think I wanted to find. Sort of disappointing.. but I suppose you get that.
On another note… I’d like to formerly apologise to my brother, who I forgot was in the car, and left him in there while I filled up with petrol and then talked to the guy that worked at the servo for approx 15 minutes.. sorry...

– just heard in a song on the radio. Some aussie hiphop song haha. Damn you james for making me NOT hate aussie hiphop. *scowls*
authority
you know, i just had a thought.
I’ve always seemed to have had trouble relating to bosses and people like that.. I suppose people that have more authority or power than i.. Maybe because i want to do the right thing, i don.t know. But i find it hard to hold conversations with bosses.
Today at bp, steve (my boss) and luke (his boss) was there. I felt awkward around then.. Unsure of what...
It’s 5am, I’m up getting ready for a 6am start… James (not Bolingbroke for those of you playing at home), is online on msn, drunkenly chatting, because he’s been out and has only just got home. He has a full day of sleep ahead of him. Life is just not fair.
I've Had Enough
jakoblodwick:
After reading my mom’s post on shutting down her tumblelog, I can’t help but agree, and it’s time for me to end this.
It’s not about Tumblr, specifically. It’s about the web in general. It’s become overrun by too many animals. One of the last straws was adventures of mascarah, who, after reading a few posts where I expressed myself, wrote this:
I will say that if you cut off his...
Thanks.

Too often I forget how lucky I am to have the parents that I do. I grew up assuming everyone was being supported and nurtured the way I was, but the older I get, the more I realize sadly that wasn’t the case. I definitely wouldn’t be who I am without them consistently backing me up. I don’t take it for granted.
Short and sweet. Like it. And definitely agree with it. Mum...

In response to this post:
Kel, read ‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’.. it was *such* a good book. Well, I still have about a fifth left.. it took a couple of pages to get into it, but was well worth it.
Highly recommended!
omg
bored at work.. Just figured i can tumbl off of my new phone.. Don.t know how expensive it is, but startling realisation anyhow :)
Anyway, back to it i suppose. Sigh.
i’m bored, right? so i figure.. i’ll tumbl. but i don’t really know what i feel like tumbling. i’m in a less than inspired mood at the moment.
I want to start cooking more. I love cooking. Experimenting with different tastes, different techniques, adding little quirks to a recipe.. I don’t know why I don’t cook more. So, I’m going to start! But I need recipe ideas.. I have NOOOO idea what to cook. Any help??
fathers day.
I was very confused when I started reading my tumblr today, and saw all sorts of dedications from the tumblr community to their fathers.
And since Australia is approx a day ahead of America, I was quite worried that I had *gasp* forgotten about Fathers Day!
A quick google search revealed that in Australia, Father’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in September. *exhale*

Ben: haha well we could always relocate to another cyber location lol
Me: they have other cyber locations? apart from msn and this?
Ben: Myspace, this & msn basically
Ben: You thought I had my own porn site or something? ;);)
Me: good ol' internet
Me: something like that, yeah
Me: with an inbuilt real time talk fuction
Me: hahahahahah

Part of an epic conversation with Mr. Benjamin. That boy knows how to make me smile : )
Indian Temptations.
nuugen:
Really tempting right now.
No matter that it is 3.30am.
Ash and I are extremely tempted…
Thats why they call it indian temptations…
I love that that place is 24 hours. This is why we need to live in a bigger city though.. think of all the variety London or New York would have at 3.30 am!
But I want to go get indian, drive around, and watch the sunrise :)

i want to live for the moment. i dont want to spend my life thinking what if. this could be a what if moment. i know it could. but i’m far too cautious. i dont invite people into my life easily. for whatever reason. i’ve tried about 7 times to write about that reason but deleted every word.
…
and then that moment. like this exact moment. is ruined by self doubt. by my inability...
unbearable lightness.
Ok, so as you know from my previous posts, I’m reading ‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’, by Milan Kundera, and I’m really enjoying it.
A while back, on the JA tumblr (i know, i know) she mentioned that she annotates books as she reads (using this as an argument against ebooks - i’m against ebooks too, but just because i like to have a physical copy.. i get very...
“A person who longs to leave the place where he [or she] lives is an unhappy...”
– Again, from The Unbearable Lightness of Being. I wouldn’t say I’m an unhappy person (I’ve actually been shocked at how happy I’ve been lately - loving life!) but I’m definitely restless. Someone, please, get me the hell out of Adelaide!
“And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself?”
– Same as the last one. Just following on the same theme, living life the the fullest, yada yada.
“He remained annoyed with himself until he realized [sic] that not knowing what...”
– Milan Kundera - from the novel ‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’. I read this quote and the first thing i could think of is ‘I want to tumbl that’. A lot of the time I feel as though I should know what I want, I should quit being so indecisive and just take action. But, as...
just a thought.

you’re a cool guy, but i don’t think you’re as cool as i think you think i think.
I’d just like to respond to this, to inform you i sat staring blankly at the screen trying to make that sentence fully make sense in my head. LOL
I assure you, it probably took me longer to work out myself if that made sense XD
just a thought.
you’re a cool guy, but i don’t think you’re as cool as i think you think i think.
vimeo.
i uploaded a timelapse video of kim and i setting up an igloo tent from ikea tonight.. but i forgot to cut it, so it’s a good couple of minutes at the end of just blackness, with the song playing.
i’ll fix it up, and post the link here tomorrow. we had so much fun setting up that stupid tent. it was so pointless, and ridiculous, but we had so much fun. we bought a cheap tent from...

i was stetching the elastic on my partially eaten candy necklace (it wasn’t on my neck), and i lost control of it and it flung behind my desk. after about 30 seconds of laughing, it stuck me that i can’t eat it anymore. sigh.
score!
totes just found a candy necklace in one of my drawers. sealed and all. pure sugar ftw!
my younger brother just got his l’s. congrats josh! he turned 16 on sunday. just heard from him, his first drive on his l’s was with our dad, from adelaide to mount barker (about a 45 minute drive) through peak hour traffic and up the freeway. my first drive was from adelaide to victor harbour (about a two hour drive).. anyone else starting to see a trend of ‘being thrown into...

oh my god.. i just recieved a message from one of my closest friends, meagan.. she’s engaged! she’s 19, he just turned 21, and they have got to be the cutest couple i’ve ever seen. as much as marriage this early scares the pants off of me, this is something that i think they’re both ready for.. they practically live together now anyway.
the wedding won’t be for a...
