April 2009
Accommodation we booked in London = AWESOME.
It cost us ~$50AUD per person per night, and is located between Mayfair and Park Lane (The blue properties in Monopoly!) and Oxford Street and Regent Street (The green properties!. It’s also about a two minute walk from Hyde Park.
SO excited.
Plus, free wi-fi. You’d be surprised how few of the budget places offer this in the UK.
dear smokers
nathaliekossek:
Please stop your habit. It’s effing disgusting and it makes you look like a tool. nothing ruins my bike ride more than breathing amazing fresh air and then hitting a wall of cig smoke. Or if I’m walking on campus and stuck behind you and your freakin’ disgusting vice. It’s horrible when I’m stuck behind you and can’t out walk you without speed-walking my way out of your cloud of...
Jonic: You're going to think I'm the least funny person alive when you come and visit :P
Me: haha i don't think that's true
Me: i know some horribly unfunny people
Jonic: Haha! Oh thanks.. I thought you were going to say that I'm very funny, but no - I'm of regular hilarity, but you know people so unfunny that they make me seem as if a comedy legend..
Jonic: A real booster that.. Cheers mate :)
whiteneonlight has a new tumblr
check it out. He likes to start fresh every once and a while. I believe this is his 6th.
Tumblr stickers just arrived in the mail!
All ready for the Tumblr Adelaide meetup on Saturday?
You'll have to excuse all the lovey-dovey posts...
But these things keep popping up on my dashboard, and they are too perfect to not reblog.
I think I’m in love with the idea of love.
crushes:

I want to fall in love.

jstn:
Incredible (and impossible to verify) story about two Italian brothers in the ’60s who claim to have recorded the space deaths of several cosmonauts. It’s partially corroborated: “Mikhail Rudenko, a retired senior space engineer, claimed a few years ago that three early victims were test pilots who were simply blasted straight up into space between 1957 and 1959.”
Who knows if...
I just think you should know;
That I am really missing talking to you tonight.
Goodnight, you. x

Australian animals are fucked up
headbeater:
PLATYPUSES OOZE MILK FFS. jesus effing christ.
(also, drop bears)
Are you watching channel 9? Hairless baby animals are gross.
Last night was good.
There were more people than I expected there; good, fun people. The boys were the boys and had me close to tears numerable times.. Mike and Alex dancing was win. Especially when Alex was pretending to be Iain and Mike was pretending to be Reece.. and then Mike was pretending to be Reece dancing like Alex who was dancing like Iain. But really, just standing around with everyone talking was good...

My sister is amazing.
She bought me return tickets to London. She bought me return tickets. To London.
She does so much for me.. she bought me my first bike, my first cd player, my first tv (and my second tv), my first VCR (back when they were the only option). I’m currently wearing close to $1000 in white gold and diamonds on my wrist because of her.
There is a huge age difference between us, 18 years, which...
3 hours to kill until first light.
Actually.. make that about 2.5 hours - I have to stop at the servo to get Red Bull (the Mount Barker servo is now 24 hours! Yippee!) and get up to the summit. What to do, what to do? I can’t think about tiredness, because it’ll only make me more tired.
Oh! New Grey’s Anatomy just finished downloading (literally AS I finished that sentence). I guess I know what I’m going...
“Phyllis: Carter, I’m 133 years old.
Carter Webb: Grandma, that’s...”
– In The Land of Women. Just watched this movie, it was really cute. I was already in love with Adam Brody so it wasn’t hard to enjoy.
I think I might pull an all nighter.
Then go to Mount Barker summit and watch first light. For no particular reason, except for that I can. And that I want to. And because I’m sick of my life and want to do something different.
Dinner, tonight.
On the Torrens river.. I’m really looking forward to it. I really hope it rains while we’re eating, so that we can watch the rain and the water. If it does, expect some of my halfhearted attempts to capture the moment on film here.
I contacted a farm in Concrete, WA today.
amwelles:
I leave May 2nd, provided the farm-lady gets back with me and says all is good. I get to live in a trailer, work hard everyday, and hang out with a bunch of other people. I’m pretty excited. It’s a community-type farm, so that will be extra-awesome. I’ll be there for a month, and then will figure out what to do from there. I have a feeling people think I’m weird for liking things like...
Looking back through old pictures.
I really like portraits of people. Pictures taken when the subject doesn’t expect it, not even in the slightest. I just think it makes for a more intimate picture, rather than the fake smile or the peace sign.
It gets so damn hot in my room when I have my...
I suppose it’s all sealed up, plus I have a laptop and a light on. But seriously, I never need heating in winter. It’s 12C in Mount Barker at the moment and I’m wearing a tshirt and some trackies. But I’m considering taking my pants off cos it’s too damn hot.
I don't want to talk to you, I don't want to know...
I really don’t think I even want to see you again before I go away. I just can’t.
Half life.
This is how I see my life at the moment. I lack passion, I lack drive. I lack purpose. Sure, life is fun, but it is of little worth. I need something to work towards, a project of sorts. Something to do that involves getting out of the house, that doesn’t revolve around the internet, that doesn’t rely on anyone except myself to make it work.
I learnt a while ago that the only person I...
Red Ochre.
Going there for dinner on Friday night with friends. They specialise it Australian cuisine (which I didn’t even know existed, really). Never been, but have heard great things. I’m really looking forward to trying a meat selection I’ve heard about - it includes animals such as Kangaroo, Wallaby and Wombat. And it comes out on a grill so that you can cook it to your specific taste....
Crossley has hooked me on movie soundtracks.
I listen to them fairly regularly now, and when I’m watching a movie I have noticed that I pay more attention to the soundtrack than I would have before. They’re amazing in the way that they can say so much through the music without having to say a word.
I like you for all the wrong Reasons...
darksideofnat:
Stop being so damn intriguing !
*sigh* I reallllly can’t help it. I apologise. ;)
Either that or the dream where I'm a princess. I...
You were in my dream last night. Nothing all that important, we were watching a movie - similar to the moonlight cinema in that we all lazed around on beanbags on the floor, but it was inside I’m fairly certain. We kissed. I wasn’t expecting that, but I liked it. It was probably because of Saturday, but you still weren’t someone I was expecting to show up in the land of nod....
