July 2008
After being pissy at the male gender the whole afternoon (well.. that’s not exactly true. There was a very nice Coke Rep who I talked to for a while. And the cute Saab guy who was making faces at me while i was making coffee. haha).
Regardless, I just got a virtual rose on an msn conversation. Very cute :)
Boys are just silly.
A certain boy was telling people at work that a couple of weeks ago, at a party we both attended, I tried to kiss him. Can I just say, right off the bat - I did NOT. Another one of the guys told me, didn’t think it was quite true and thought I should know. And then when I was talking to one of the other girls, he had told her too. Just as we finished talking about it,...
more london developments.
My sister has offered to pay for my flights to London. This is insane.
To tell you the truth, I thought I’d be excited. Don’t get me wrong, I am really excited. But I’m also really scared.
That’s not gonna stop me from going, of course. Part of the reason I want to go is to get out of my comfort zone. But leaving all my friends, all my family? It is very daunting.
well.
London developments. My sister has offered to set me up a job in London before I even get over there. She is pretty high up (as in is responsible for most of Australia) in the company that she works for, and they have branches over in London. Could be promising… :)
it's is so cold, i'm considering wearing two pairs...
Things I found out recently:
Lilliputt, the town of little people in Gulliver’s Travels..if you follow the co-ordinates on a map you end up in Coober Pedy
AND
Also i found out that the largest word you can write on the top line of a QWERTY keyboard is TYPEWRITER
These facts come courtesy of Brodley. :)
Also, he would like to add that these fun facts were brought to you today by the letter B and the number 7,...
I quickly imdb-ed the movie, and apart from some negative comments, I didn’t learn much. I was, however, interested to read this in the trivia section:
As part of the promotion for the Canadian release, the distributor released all of the original footage as downloadable torrent files and encouraged people to re-edit the footage into whatever they saw fit. This is believed to be the first...
Looks like I might be getting a joy ride in a hummer hahahaha. Was chatting to a customer at work (very cute guy, may i add). I was just joking around, but he appeared to have an air of seriousness about him. Fingers crossed!
I would never, ever, ever own one. They chew through so much petrol, and are bad for the environment.. but they ARE impressive, I must say. :)
i’m sorry, i haven’t posted much lately, apart from short little updates.
I’m going to bed for tonight.. maybe more tomorrow?
For now, here’s my flickr link.
I haven’t linked it before, don’t use it that often, but I’ve uploaded a couple of pictures, and I figure giving you that is better than giving you nothing.
Enjoy.
you know, as much as i love life..
I think I prefer it through a camera lense.
On a side note, just found THE most awesome playground ever. Yorktown, i LOVE you! Pictures to come when i get home, so, sometime after sunday :)
man, i love australia.
i really, really do. Driving home.. Flinders ranges on one side, ocean on the other.. And nothing but the flat, barren, aussie scrub in between. Really is gorgeous. Loving this drive.
deja vu is actually a really good movie.
i like it, at least.
i was at dinner, by myself, seeing as i’m in whyalla by myself. I must have looked lonely.. A little any came over and asked what my name was. So cute. There are SO many kids in whyalla. Cuteness overload. :)
last thing..
My phone alarm, when I set it, tells me how long I have until it goes off. Lately, that time has averaged around the 6 hour mark. I breathed a big sigh of relief when tonight, it informed me that I have 9 hours and 40 minutes. That felt good. Wish me luck :)
went and bought some nice smelling shampoo and body wash, and had a nice relaxing shower. I feel so much better now (even if at one point, i thought the shower was clogged. I had conditioner in my hair.. And I honestly would have climbed into those pipes myself before pestering those guys again. It’s been am excellent night.)
But now, i’m laying in bed, i smell like strawberries and...
hey guys, just fyi.
i fail at life. Something involving me annoying the guy at front desk, michael, like 4 times. But as he said, hey, at least it gave him a chance to have a smoke-o while helping me. But still.. I just wanted to run away. Sorry, michael!
At coles greenacres, working. Desperately trying to get everything finished, this is the first time working this job that i’ve left everything to the last minute- i forgot all my redemptions had to be done by today too. Oh well, not stressing, just “working smart” :)
Also, cute guy working at the front desk here. I think it’s just because he had cool messy hair, and...
Discussing Shadow.
Lee: Teach it new tricks!
Me: Like what?
Me: Juggle?
Lee: Cook a 5 course meal.
Me: Build a rocket.
Lee: Fix world poverty.
Lee: The opportunities are endless.
It's time I learnt that life isn't like the...
I think I’m expecting too much.
Adding to my list...
cocopops:
Of disappointments in the last week. I didnt get offered the uni course i wanted. So now i have to reasses the situation and figure out what the fuck to do. I’m too scared to go out and tell mum i’m fucked.
I seriously have no idea what i’m going to do. I feel…. numb to everything. Like nothing can ever go right. Like i am destined to just be a fuck up. Ok maybe i am overexaggerating...
adelaide is such a small place. Parked my car in the central markets upark, down the travelator thing, straight away i run into an aunt of mine that i hadn’t seen in forever. Such a small place.
omg. Hot guys at the museum. Who would have guessed? Hoping it means they’re intellectual haha. Man, was checking one guy out when his friends walked around the corner and saw me. Avert eyes and run haha. But still. Who would have thought?
Eye Em
jakec:
Why can’t I use italics and bold in MSN yet? Text is a pretty poor way of conveying nuances like sarcasm, the least we could do is provide emphasis where we choose. Why aren’t we at that stage yet?
Semi-related: The two most worn keys on my keyboard are ‘L’ and ‘O’. I didn’t realise I lol’d that often.
You actually can. If you press (ctrl + t) while typing in msn, this: ‘|’...
Me: sorta finished
Me: wanna put together some outtakes now
Lee: lol
Lee: sure there are heaps :P
Me: but ali filmed mostly me, and kim didn't say heaps..
Me: so i feel like i've put together a thing of just me
Me: which is weird
Me: and i come across as a douche.
Lee: HAHA
Me: seriously, you'll see.
Lee: ill watch it and be like that ash is such a douche
Me: you know it.
I do love ‘Of Montreal’. This song is...
