Ireland

So, where is it that I want to go most in this world?
Ireland.
Why? Because Thats been my dream since my mum used to talk about it when I was a kid.
How am I going to achieve this? I have no idea yet. But I know what I want to do whilst there. : I want to go with my best friend. and I want to ride a bike the entire way around the Republic of Ireland. I want to do this, because I want to be able to really see and appreciate the beauty of my ancestral home.
I Would: Create a travel blog, and update daily. with pictures and comments, with my story. I'd have a time limit of 90 Days.

What I have to do to be able to accomplish this: save up for airfares and enough money for food and a bike, with trailer, tent and the few essentials I will need. I will also need to decide in advance the definite locations I would like to see. I would need to purchase a decent Camera.

ahh, I really like this idea.
Not just would I be seeing Ireland, I would also be losing weight.
I really really want this.

A Party Filled Weekend:D

So, I am pretty fabulous, if I do say so myself!

My weekend was very eventful, starting Friday night. Went to a metal gig (:S) at a club, but only went upstairs to the where the metal bands were for a little bit. The entire thing was paid for me. A friend paid for my enterance, ($15.00) and me and my bff got free drinks the entire night, which was pretty good, except it was all beer! Not my favourite drink. But it was free so who cares? And I chatted to a guy from Canada who was quite an attractive fellow! And got to hang out with my friends:D
But the walk home wasnt as fun. We walked back to a friends house to pick up our stuff, which wasnt too bad, but then we left his place at 4am to walk to my sisters place where we were staying the night, and it took us an hour to walk it, but if we had've driven, it wouldve taken us five minutes.. UMMM:S LOL
But because I wore heels that night, my feet were absolutely dead. My toes are still cut open. And when I wasnt in the club I was walking barefoot. Which wasnt very comfortable on the ground... And let me tell you, there is actually a lot of broken glass here:S

Saturday we were woken at about 7:30-8:00am by my dad who was dropping LiLi off. So, we had just over an hours sleep. And that night we were going to a friends 18th party.

So Saturday night we went to the friends 18th and got trashed. It was pretty darn good fun:D But we didnt have to walk that one, which was good. :) and Uncle bought us a bottle of vodka. So we had two bottles of vodka and a fair amount of woodstock between Sarah and I. :)

Now, Sarah has gone home, and it is my pay day. And I have already spent a bit over $100.00 already... 50 for lunch and 50 for supermarket.


Well I have to go, I have to go and sort out the meat! LOL

Toodles

Happy St Patricks Day

There I was, all excited, because I saw that I had a comment. Only to find out it was from becbec.. Wow, let down! LOL jksjks.

Spent the day in town with Sarah and Uncle Fluffy! was a good day, and we had green for St Paddys Day. Though I lost my balloon to one of the covers in the Mall. Silly balloons with helium!!!

We got KFC- Ultimate Burger Meals. me and sarah had wicked wings with outs. But two of mine and one of hers had hairs in them. Unimpressed! so Uncle Fluffy took them back and we got new ones. AS WE SHOULD!

See, Becbec, I updated

18 Things to Know Me.

I am going to pretend I have never blogged before. As in, metaphorically deleting the old posts (but I cant bring myself to do that for real!).

I am FiFi. Yes, as in, Fee-Fee.. But I prefer the former spelling. I am eighteen-years-old. So, in honour of that, I am going to tell you eighteen interesting (or not so interesting) facts about myself.

1) I am an international jetsetter... (only to New Zealand though but shhh)
2) I am accomplished in the art of boredom. No seriously I am.

(ok, I'm stumped... think think think!!!)

3) I go to gay bars. But I'm not gay.
4) I'm a window-shopperholic! Because I am too poverty stricken to buy anything.
5) I only eat one type of chocolate... CHERRY RIPE
6) Even though I am eighteen I am obssessed with Disney.
7) I love heels, but they hurt my feet, so by the end of the day I am barefoot.
8) I hate rabbits. With a passion. They disgust me.
9) I have my learners licence but nobody will take me driving.
10) I google words if I dont know how to spell them.
11) I am addicted to Facebook, and becoming a fan of pages.
12) I LOVE bookshops.... especially secondhand ones, with their bargains and the smell!!
13) I am petrified of dentists. I refuse to go.
14) I am not scared of hospitals. I dont get the fear everyone has of them.
15) I love being drunk, but I dont like the taste of alcohol.
16) I like new age stuff. :)
17) I love when the power goes out, except for the lack of using facebook.
18) I love storms. a good thunder and lightening storm in the middle of the night. nothing like it, along with the rain on the tin roof.

There we go. Now you know me.. or just a few facts.. Which took about half an hour to think of. :)

Eloquence Is No Longer My Strong Point

Its funny how random things bring up random memories from the past.
While in New Kiwi Land (I’m sure you can figure that one out) me and Becbec would frequently visit book shops (a highly popular one named W.hi.tcouls. I think that’s how its spelt - minus the full stops, duh!). There was one book we stumbled across (I say we just for fun, because Becbec would disagree with me, and say that she found it, which is true, but because we were both there I am saying WE). I cannot, for the life of me, remember what it was called. I shall Google it and see if I can find out the name, so I’ll BRB. :D… Ahh I found it. Things I Want My Daughters To Know. [(http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1152201.Things_I_Want_My_Daughters_to_Know seems a good site if you want information on it) I don’t know how to do those special link things so bare with me yea?]
It’s about a woman who realises she doesn’t have long left (from the blurb it doesn’t tell what her reasoning for ‘dying’ is.) so she writes letters to her four daughters, offering them advice and help and stuff (yes, very eloquently put via me. I know I know).
That’s just one part of it.
Tonight, I was reading some stories - which I have a tendency to do - I found some rather sad ones. The first one, the main character had aids, so was dying, and obviously, as all stories seem to go, he died. It was heartbreaking and I balled my eyes out. The second one the main character had cancer, and once again, died. I, once again, balled my eyes out, and I think that one got me worse then the first one.
But both stories left me thinking, especially after a line in the first one, hold on, I’ll get it:

“It’s not fair! It’s not fair for you and it’s not fair for me and I’ve been trying so hard to just act like I’m okay with this so that I can be strong for you, but I can’t anymore! I don’t want to die, I don’t want to leave you, and I’m scared and it’s not fair!”

That line was when I started crying. And I didn’t stop crying until the end. Which was quite a fair way.
It made me think about Mum. And it made me realise that I didn’t really know what she was going through, I still don’t.
Mum was so strong through her entire cancer. I watched her struggle through her every day routines, and I guess I didn’t even see her struggles, more, I didn’t realise she was struggling. (in my defence though, it wasn’t really my fault, I was just a kid, so I cant have been expected to have realised it).
I didn’t really know what Mum was like, and I only have short, fragmented memories of her. There are things that remind me of her, and stuff like that (there we go with the eloquence once more). But, like, I didn’t know what she was like as a woman, not just a mother. Because she was a great mother. When I picture what a mother should be like, I picture her. She looked after me and my sisters (as one would expect she did do). She taught us so much, she would sit with me and GeeGee (or G-Force as she is now known as) and teach us to read every night (or in my memory it was every night, it might not have been though). She was the perfect mother, well in my eyes anyway (or at least, when I wasn’t naughty and in trouble :D). Even when she was sick she would play with us girls, and everything.
But none of that is the point. Mum was a woman. She was human. And I always forget that. She was into Spirituality. She was a reiki master, she was one of those people that could tell you about your past life. She was a tarot reader. She went to the psychic conventions, and had spiritualistic friends. She had a Guardian Angel, his name was Peter, if I recall correctly. She had a purple robe (which has now been passed onto me) she had necklaces, and tie-dye clothes, she had books on crystal healing.
I have her old High School diaries, and they are a reminder that she was once a teenager. (even though sometimes I think she was more rebellious then I have ever been). I learnt about her through her diaries. And I never felt bad about reading them once. Because I believe I am entitled to read them, because I will never get the chance to ask her personally.

The quote I mentioned earlier, it made me realise, I didn’t/don’t know how she really felt while alive and suffering from cancer. It made me wonder if she felt like that much, if she was just trying to be as strong as possible for us girls.
I just wish I could ask her about it. I just wish I could ask her anything.
As I said when I first started this post. ‘Its funny how random things bring up random memories from the past.’ random stories made me think about it, and now I have all these thoughts in my head about it all, and I just cant get it into words. I cant express what I want to say, because, I don’t think there is an actual way to say it.
She was my mother, and I wish I knew what she was really like.
She IS my mother, and I wish she knew who I have become.

There was so much I wanted to say before I started writing, and once I started I got lost, and couldn’t find the right words. But that doesn’t matter, because I understand, and it doesn’t matter if no one else does, because. It just doesn’t.

Then and Now

Ahh through the years kinda.. :D
wasnt I gorgeous?
LOL
ok.
that is just sad.
Need some younger shots as well.
On the phone to Becbec. Cant wait to see her and the Wonka again.

The Traffic Lights Are Flashing,.. And We Are Smiling.

I am a little slow... with the whole updating thing that is. Delayed much??
I have been working. Mondays, Fridays and Sundays. At a supermarket.. what a blast. I dont think my feet will ever recover. I shouldnt be on my feet for longer then five minutes at a time.. unless I am shopping. but from five hours to eight hours on my feet at once.... thats just crazy. add onto that the two different buses to get there.. the first one taking about ten minutes the second one taking forty odd minutes, and than having to walk down six flights of stairs to get the the shopping complex car park, across the car park and then work. then at the end cross the car park again and go UP the six flights of stairs.. UP them.. much worse then just going down them. and then (on sundays) catching two different buses or (fridays and mondays) catching one bus for centuries!! mannn working isnt for me... the money, however, is a completely different story.. ten buckaroos an hour.. not too bad i guess.

School has kind of fizzled out for me over here.. i just couldnt get into going to school here.. wayyyy to different to any school i have ever been too. A SIX DAY TIMETABLE. like.. umm, crazy. When I first found out about that i thought they meant i would have to go to school on a Saturday.. they quickly corrected me on that one. thank god.. but it was so confusing, so i just learned that the classes go in a row. say i had a free line, art history, history, photography and then english on one day, the next day it would go art, a free line, art history, history, photography and so on like that for six days. and then go back to the beginning.. :S urrrghhh drove me bonkers it did.

So, I am still in NZ which should be pretty obvious. Have made some kinda friends here,, recognise people while out finally... which i like do be able to do.. i like to be able to go "hey Becbec, i know that dude/chick over there!" only happens sometimes though.

Have got some new clothes, some new tights. some new shoes:D some presents for peoples. and need to take some photos.

We bought some alcohol today.. a packet of six shots and a bottle of smirnoff. me and Becbec had all the shots.. three each. and then started the Smirnoff... that didnt go far.. one glass each.. we wanted alcohol, but then we sooo were not in the mood for it.. it just made us feel kinda sick:P So we have some alcohol left.. we wanted to get absolutely drunk for St Patricks day... umm.... didnt last long.
we are sooo brilliant with alcohol.!

I had a thing about trying to lose Kumbars phone. I will sometimes take it to work with me. the first time i left it on the bus. the bus driver got it for us cos becbec called up straight away when i told her as soon as i got home. so that one was very lucky, cos the bus driver took it right out of a passengers hands because they had found it :P:S and the second time i was getting changed at work, left it in the toilet cubicle, and got to the steps on the other side of the car park.. had just started up them when i heard a phone start to go off and i was like "ohh damnnnn" and turned back. it was where i had left it. mind you it was lucky, i got there just as becbec was calling me to ask me to do a bit of shopping for her.. if i had of got the call while at the steps i would have said no. i wouldnt have turned back to get it. LOL.

I got some charcoal sticks for my art and have only used them once really because i need to get an erazer for it. because i stuff up and cant get rid off the mistake. but oh wells. i will get one soon enough.

Have been reading some fan fiction.. going back over old stories that i have already read but loved. ahh good stuff good stuff. been on msn a bit. and myspace and all that jazz.. the normal stuff. my favourite days have turned out to be Tuesdays and Wednesdays. because i dont work. i dont like thursdays or saturdays because i know i have work the next days. fridays, mondays and sundays..... well thats just obvious.

well Im gona buzz on out.. its a bit late and i need sleeppp :P:P
night all.. or morning.. or whatever :D

School, reincarnations and a Life of Fire

Blog,blog,blog,blog. Im blogging :D
Ok, New Zealand is amazing. I love the country.
Boop has gone home already. which sucks. miss her already

I have started attending a school here in NZ just until april 9th. then back to australia. The school is such a MAZE. everything looks the same and i can never remember where each class is or anything. Always need someone to show me, which sucks, but I've usually just got this one group of people that show me to each class.
I made a group of friends. kind of. Especially one boy. Tom (im pretty safe using his name because there are so many of them). hes pretty cool. all into drama and stuff. have art and english with him. hes been the nicest person at school so far, and thats saying something because nobody has been mean to me:P

The school buildings seem pretty old and could do with some fixing uppering. new walls and new paint and new desks and stuff... there arent even any ceiling fans. or heaters or anything. we had an assembly and we had to take our shoes off while still being in our classrooms, and then had to walk across the school barefoot so we "dont trek dirt into the gym" pffft how stupid.. i dont like feet so it was kinda very gross for me.

i have to walk to school each day and then back home again each day. thats annoying.. it takes me over half an hour to get there each day because i walk slowly because i dont want to get sweaty and yucky for the day ahead. but on the way home it takes me less then fifteen minutes, even though its uphill, because i know i am on my way home so it doesnt really bother me if i get sweaty and yucky than lol.

lunches and "interval" which to me is recess, i sit/stand near what i think is the music block, its "j" block i think. and I think i am the only girl at that group, but thats because i dont really know any girls. except for Carmen and this other girl who i dont remember her name.

one of the guys i hang out with. he reminds me so so so much of Joshy G. he also kind of reminds me of Zac efron. but i havent yet told him this, but i am planning on. just not the Zac Efron bit lol. but when i first really looked at this guy i almost had a heart attack. i could have sworn it was joshy g.

on a completely different note. The Bushfires in Victoria, Australia. I've been reading up on that pretty much every day, and dad tells me about it as well. It is so horrible. How anyone could be stupid enough to do that is beyond me. and all those lives lost. it is so very tragic. i pretty much cry everytime a read a bit about it. i hope the people who caused the fires go away for life. people like that dont deserve freedom, or respect. or anything. they should be put in a place where they get nothing except for the very bare essentials. they should suffer for what they have caused the people that died, were injured, lost everything. for what they have caused a nation to suffer.

Best of luck to all in the Victoria fires. May those lost Rest in peace, may those left behind have the best of luck from now on. My greatest sympathies to everyone.
and i hope those BASTARDS that did it pay.

goodnight.
love you and miss you uncle

Cat Flaps, Convicted Criminal Escapees and Kitchen Utensils

I havent blogged in a few days.. oopsies.. my bad
Sitting down in the lounge room with becbec, boop, kumar and willykins,. Kumar watching some shitty show, becbec on the phone to unc. bid playing with willykins and me blogging. :)

havent been up to a lot lately.. went to browns bay yesterday.. it was fun. i really like browns bay. and then we went to albany.. Browns Bay is beautiful. and i had the best chicken burger in the world. the only problem was it had onion, other then that it was the best burger in the world. I want another one NOW lol.

talked to one of my friends from tassie. hes a nice kid. goes to one of the private schools at home. we catch the same bus to town each day and back again, and i met him last year. i think hes around 13 or something. sometimes he can be annoying, but hes better then most of the kids on the bus.. lol

there was a terrible photo of me taken. and i want it deleted. but a certain someone will not delete the photo. whenever i take a photo of that certain someone and s/he doesnt like it and tells me to delete it i delete it. i just wish that s/he would show the same courtesy to me that i show to he/r. it would be muchly appreciated.

apparantly there is a convicted rapist that escaped from prison just near here. Becbec just found out about it. so a bit of worry now. said not to approach him or anything. Kumar has decided we are taking the vacuum cleaner pole upstairs with us.. hes more of a wuss then us girls. he was like "lock the doors, close the windows. lock the cat flap"...
so sure im a bit nervous about that as well.. but id safely say kumar is more so.. BAHAH lol.

i think a mozzie bit my forehead. because its itchy.
now they are talking about things to use to protect us.. a fork to stab his eyes out... umm. so now we are using kitchen utensils to protect ourselves..

im hungry.
ive been reading a story
i want to continue.
but everyone is going to bed.

Fantastical Books, Games and Shopping

Watching Ghost Whisperer at the moment.
been spending my day on the laptop and facebooking it.
Boop is here now.. which is awesome. Us girls are sitting here freshly showered and Kumar is forgetting English words... Hmmm nice

Going out tomorrow.. to Albany. Should be fun.. hopefully it wont be all my money spent.. :P

I wonder what it would be like to be able to see and talk to ghosts.. could be pretty awesome.. and scary. was thinking about it because of ghost whisperer. and ive read the mediator books..(by Meg Cabot).. im sure there was another series that was similar to it but i cant think of it.. It intrigues me.. I love supernatural type shows and books.. fantasy i spose. i love those things.

walked to the servo this evening to get dinner.. two drinks, three cherry ripes, a thing of noodles and a packet of chips.. lol.. such a brilliant dinner. but its like the first dinner ive had in a couple of nights.

sitting next to becbec while shes blogging as well. well actually now she is facebooking, playing scramble. good game. good game.. love playing it and winning it.

well. looking forward to shopping tomorrow.

must be off
Gnight

Starvation, Corkscrewing and Neighbours

I am sooooooooo soooooooo sooooooo hungry. Today, all I have had to eat is Two Salami Sandwhiches. but there is no extra food. bummer.. did i mention i am hungry?

anyways. enough about that.

today was spent reading.. mainly just the one story. as i have probably mentioned before, i read online. mainly at a site called fanfic.net... its awesome.. its my third or fourth home. :P

i have started writing my story now.. in the book i got yesterday? (not sure if it was yesterday or the day before)
i'm writing it as a diary kinda perspective.. but not as mine,.. how boring would that be.. just going on about how hungry i am.....


I love shopping (or window shopping) at Albany and the other place.. cant remember what that is called at the moment (short term memory loss atm).. especially at the place i cant remember the name of. but the shopping centre is soooo big.. but at the same time i think it could be bigger.. maybe thats just my girly shopping loving side of me talking.

I have done nothing to my hair today.. just because i was too lazy to and i wasnt going anywhere. But, i think I am going to do my hair how i had it yesterday.. cos i really really like it like that... (and i dont care if other people dont like it.. except of course uncyy.. :D)

becbec saw a fabulous sight today.. but if you are curios then ask her about it yer? LOL. she will know what I mean.. all I will say is next door neighbour in the kitchen ;);)
ewwww

Someone needs corkscrewing because they are insufferable

anyways.. off i go to write my of my new story

And quite seriously actually pretty well behaved.... compared to other little kids.. *cough*monkeykidsatalbany*cough* he is so chatty and huggable and pooey and cute and all that. i love being around him.. except of a nighttime when trying to sleep or when he turns the computer on and off all the time.

its been great spending soo much time around becbec. we have gone out heaps.. (i like going out heaps)and done a bit of shopping.. i want to go exploring the area that we live in, but becbec doesnt want to.. lazy bum she is..(so am i though) soi have to wait for boop to get here on saturday!!!!!! =] oooh i am excited that she is coming over.. :D

i really really like it here. except for the heat. i cant handle heat. it is my enemy. yesterday on the bus the busdriver accidentally left the middle doors open and me and becbec were sitting right opposite them, so the breeze was hitting us and it was sooo nice. but then the busdriver realised they were open so he had to close them because none of the bells could ring for the stops. and the heat hit us like a ton of bricks and i almost died... again.. it was soo hot and i couldnt breathe.. it was terrible..

i have found my new favourite shop.. i think its called Rivendell or something.. it is amazing.. its like a spiritual type shop and i just want to buy everything in it. it is amazing.. i think i already said that but it seriously is.. i love it.
as a bonus i also really like the dollar shops.. they are even better then chickenfeed.. i have a tendency to get quite a few things from there.

i have to convince becbec to go exploring with me already..
i have only talked to my friends from home a couple of times..

i have yet to make any friends here.... maybe they are all just hiding at the moment lol.

On another note,, I am in the mood to party.. Like, typical teenage parties.. but not knowing anyone here means none of those parties lol. oh wells. (not that i party or anything unc.. def not!!! =P)

anyways... i updated. i love you

Ok. Day one of New Zealand
woke up at around 8.
went downstairs with becbec and listened to britney spears' new album (becbecs xmas pressie from me)
annoyed Kumba til he got up.
slowly got ready to go out..
went out
caught the bus twice.. the second time was actually the wrong bus.
got to the warehouse and died of heat exhaustion.
left the warehouse after finding a mattress
caught the bus back to our suburb
had a rather interesting interaction with a carload of teenager males (hot by the way) which was funny and embarrassing.
got home
died again from heat exhaustion
and then just lazed around, occasionally cleaning, and cooking.

now i am blogging,
for uncle.

I really like it here. (except for the heat). but its surprisingly really pretty and it is so different, yet so similar to home.
its so relaxed here.
and Willykins is adorable.
asleep on the floor with his bum in the air.. it is sooooo cute.

Love you uncle

New Zealand TODAY and horrible Airports

Ok, so now I am in New Zealand. Using Becbecs laptop cos I am too lazy to log onto my own.

So I was woken up this morning at 4am by father switching on the light and handing me Becbec (ie the phone). Got up and got dressed and did my hair and make-up... Left for the airport and almost died of excitement.

At the airport The guy that "served" me was a gay guy named Mark. He was very nice and helpful. Then father and I sat down and i filled out this form thing. After I went through the X-ray machine I realised I didnt know which gate i was supposed to go to, so I asked the security guard and he had no idea, so he pointed me to where everyone else was in gate 3. so I sit there and then find out that it was the wrong place.. after everyone was lining up to get onto their flight.. so i went to gate two and waited..


The taking off was awesome. I loved it and I loved watching the land fly by underneath. It was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. But i didnt really like watching as we went over the water to Melbourne because it gave me motion sickness.... LOL. just my luck..

i get to Melbourne and easily find my way around. get hungry jacks, have a look around and then go to the international terminal. once there i discover at almost 10am that my 12am flight had been delayed.... til 4PM. Ohh it was hell and I died of boredom... I spent ages on the phone to Becbec and Nan and Uncle and GeeGee.. people probably named me the phone girl. LOL.

SO after Hours of waiting, dying of boredom.. i finally got on the plane.. and sat in the wrong seat.. i got the right seat eventually.. and watched WANTED...
I am soooooo over airports.. Always stuffing up some how.....

SO now I am in Auckland With my best friend/Sister and her partner and my beautiful nephew...

I know that it was rushed,,, i am just very tired and cant be overly bothered going into detail about it.. maybe tomorrow or the day after... but soon.

SO.. A very long day later and I am in the living room semi watching Eli Stone and talking to Becbec and dying of heat exhaustion.

Goodnight.. It is 12:09am... so it is completely understandable that i stop now lol

Love you uncle.. Miss you

Off To See the Wizard the Wonderful Wizard of NZ

It is unbelievable how fast time flies. It feels like only last week Becbec and I started counting down from 50 the days left til I went to NZ. And now, tomorrow... I will be there.

The excitement I feel is unparalleled to anything. My birthdays dont even compare. I am finally leaving Tasmania for the first time.. and to travel outside of Australia?? I mean yea sure, Becbec, GeeGee and Boop have already done it, but thats not the point. I am the only one out of my sisters to never have done it.. NOW I AM!!!
I feel like giggling and jumping up and down and grinning insanely. Tapping my legs and doing an excitement jig... LOL. my hands are shaking and my tummy has butterflies and I feel like a little kid all over again. Christmas is back for me... (And it will be for becbec and willykins..) I dont think i will be able to sleep tonight... Plus I will be getting up at four in the morning to get ready... DO my hair, makeup and stuff... Gotta look perfect..

I want to do things to distract myself but anything i do isnt enough. Can i just be in NZ already? that would be nice...

$870 in my wallet atm.. 10 from dad (thank you daddy) 10 from nan.. :) $500 from GeeGee (thank you sosososososo much my beautiful sister) and $350 from myself.

I hope i have everything I need. I keep thinking that I have forgotten something, but I dont think I have.. I hope I havent..(Must just be the hairspray that I know I cannot take with me :( Need Hairspray Peoples. and I dont know if they sell my hairspray in NZ.. would be just my luck that they didnt.)


Well.. ima off to read uncs blog now
Nighty night
Looking forward to tomorrow sooooooooo much :)

Hair, Friends, and Australianism

I dont straighten my hair when I'm not going anywhere
I dont put make-up on when I'm not going anywhere
I like to laze around in my night clothes during the day
while doing whatever on my laptop and talking on the phone to becbec

[2DTG]

I straighten my hair to perfection when I am going somewhere. And then mess it up, spike it and spray it to a style I want.
I coat my eyeliner on nice and thick around my eyes and lightly put the foundation on.
I wear Converse (5/6/7) or thongs [8] (flipflops) or my little slip on shoes or my vans (7). I am finally building up my shoe collection.
I wear skinnyleg jeans. All the time. under dresses and tunics. I even considered wearing them to my leavers dinner (Prom) but was talked out of it.
If I wear a skirt or dress without Jeans then I wear my tights. Grey. thick. i dont like my legs...
I generally always wear a jacket.. sometimes even when it is really hot. but that is because i dont like my tshirts. I like my tshirts to be baggy.

I hang out in town at the local foodhall and the mall all the time. My friends are the local Sce.Ne and E.mo kids. they all like to think they are awesome, hardcore and misunderstood. (they are pretty awesome. are certainly NOT hardcore and are only misunderstood by themselves). They all belong to the one group but are all split up into separate groups inside that group. We have a united front, but we arent that together.
the group dwindles for a while and then goes back to being big. We rarely converse with people outside our group and those silly teenagers are obssessed with coffee.
I hang out with whoever. If i like the person, or am able to get along with the person, then all is cool. but i try and stick with the same people, cos i am pretty shy. I went to the same school for around ten years, and so i didnt really have to worry about making new friends, and then i had to go to college and i didnt think i was going to make new friends. and then i did. I barely see the people i spent the last ten or so years with and like them less then the people i know now (thats outside of my family). I have spent more time with the people i know now and know them better.
I was surprised at how easy it was to make friends. people are always willing to expand their friendship groups, so accepting someone that was generally quiet, and fun (atleast i like to think so) and someone that didnt argue or cause arguements, was something they didnt have any complaints about.


My main friends (outside my family) are Shel.Don. hes my cousin, and I've "known" him for ever. but i never actually knew him til this year. He's an awesome guy and we never argue. We have a lot of similarities.. and like a lot of the same things.. We have spent so much time together this year.. in my frees (and even in a lot of my non-frees) [frees from college classes]. we would go to KFC pretty much every day. and we have discovered that when we talk to each other we are actually talking a different language. ["Do you remember that night?" and Boop didnt understand a word he said "yeah" and cracking up beacause boop was like "What" and i knew exactly what night he was talking about] and there might be a telepathic connection there as well..

Eli.Se. Met her in english and art this year. she told me that she was jealous of me and (sal.ly) because we met and were straight up friends... Eli.Se is very very nice. very creative. and i love her to pieces. She is beautiful and is amazing to talk to. She is funny and cute. And if she were a guy... LOL. I was so glad I met her.

Sal.ly. We shared SA and Art. and on the first day of college she talked to me and that made people think we already knew each other. She reminds me of someone and i dont know who. she is very hypo and loves drama. she cracks me up with her fake irish accent. and is always doing something. i love being around her because she always makes me smile and laugh.

Jes.S she is freaking awesome. she is always calm and collected. her voice is very australian and i love it. i know her the least out of the three of her sal.ly and eli.se. i met her in art and via sal.ly because they were already friends. she is probably the quietest out of us all. and she is really funny.

Me, Eli.Se, Sal.ly and Jes.S met in college and have spent hours just laughing and not doing our work. complimenting each other and insulting each other. we make plans that will probs never happen. JEFS (Jes.s eli.se fifi and sal.ly)

=D i love my friends.

Travelling, Family Tree, and Smelly People

These three images were taken throughout this year. the two shots with just me and one other person are me and Boop. the one with the three of us is me Shel.don and Kay.la. (i think thats her name, ive only met her a couple of times)... goodtimes goodtimes. Toyworld, witches hats.. Yes, we were sobre.

so there is three? days left til I finally leave tassie for the first time.. and go to NZ. =] so looking forward to it. I dont think I will be able to sleep for the next few nights, and the days are going to take forever.
I am so looking forward to seeing Becbec and willykins again, and finally actually meeting Kumar.
Plus as an added bonus Kumars brother is going to be the one picking me up from the airport!!!!!! :D OMG... apparantly he is going to leave work early to get ready to pick me,, (get ready to impress me :D) lol. ahhahaha. I'm looking forward to meeting him as well.. The girls (ie my sisters) have been saying he's even better looking in person then in his photos (and that is saying something) and one of them has even gone so far as to say he is DIVINE (So telling him that bahah!!)...

SPent the day on the phone to Becbec.. and started packing my suitcase... i still have a bit more stuff to put in it.. plus i need to put stuff in my messenger bag and will have to put my laptop in the laptop case. and some other stuff... got to find willy and becbecs pressies to put in the suitcase as well.
I AM SO EXCITED.

well actually at the moment i am stenched out... NAN.

for the few days before christmas eve i spent with Boop and my cousin Shel.don (he's my best friend outside of becbec.) he came down home with me and we stayed up the whole night talking, didnt get to sleep til around 6am, and then nan decided to make heaps of noise and try and wake us up, we all ignored her.
to explain how shel.don is my cousin would probably take a lot of effort.. but i am going to try it.. he is my mums mums sisters daughters daugthers son.... lol. or my nans great great nephew. LOL

the lounge room stinks.. so we left it and went to teh kitchen.. the stench has wafted to the kitchen so i went outside. sitting on the backstep breathing fresh air... ahhhh blessed fresh air.... the stench is disgusting.... we know what is causing the stench, but we cannot get rid of it, because then we would be murderers... (it aint no rat..) she knows who she is, but she wont admit it.

ok enough rambling.
