Things i want to bring back OR back in the day...

1. Roller skates. really. I had a brief spell with them, but then roller blades came in. I don't feel my time is over with the skates. AND for that matter- bring back waitresses on skates. I would suck at it, but there is definetly skill there. Untapped potential people!

2. Guns 'n' Roses. No-one, and i mean NO ONE wears bike pants like Axle.The hair was also grand. Long & straight or a big old fro'. And their names were classic. Slash. Ahhhhh, such serenity....

3. Meat on a stick, AKA kebabs. They should really feature more often on the barbie. It makes perfect sense- no need for plates OR cutlery (if you do it right...)

4.Mixed tapes. I miss having to rewind & fast forward to find songs. Being glued to the radio to make sure you could record your favourite song. Memories. Oy.

What do you want back?

Bags that i love!



I have these 2 totes. They are brillaint! As soon as i saw them i was thinking of how i could justify the purchase. Turned out to be christmas presents to myself!
I often get comments, and catch people nudging their friends to have a look. Gotta love that! Go to www.mychipchop.com for the full range.

Heaven. I will be wrapped in heaven.




Yay! This is a Peter Alexander gown that i am getting for my birthday! (not until the end of march, but i like to plan ahead...)

I watched the movie 'The Holiday' with Cameron Diaz and she had the nicest, softest looking robe on. I wanted it and this is a pretty close second. I have tried it on (in 40 degree heat mind you) and it is fantastic. I cant wait for it to be cold!

I heart Peter Alexander

Is short the new tall?

On the weekend i went to Manly to visit a friend. We went down the corso etc and had lunch. It's a great place, but there is something i noticed: Most of the people were amazingly tall, tanned & toned, where as i am.... not. :)

It got me thinking. Does the *country breed short, pale people? OR, does the city breed model-like material? Is it a survival of the fittest senario?

Either way im ok with it. The rain hits the taller people first.......

(*-ok, so people classify The Hunter as country, but really, we are only 2hrs away from Sydney....)

Wedgies and Stone Henge




I did it. I have made an eye mask (its pretty nifty even if i do say so myself!)
Sorry about the bluriness- must have been caused by all the excitement...! (haha, im a funny girl)
I have also started my cross stitch- OY!. I was wondering what to label these things under eg, 'ways to pass the time', but after thinking about it, i actually quite enjoy it. I am a nerd and i love it.
The other day i was speaking to a friend telling her all about my cross stictch etc, and i asked what she had been up too, her reply: ' a puzzle- Stone Henge. The sky was easy, but now i am stuck on a rock'.
See? Nerds, but i think i like it that way :)

In celebration of this acknowledgement, i thought i would share a poem that I wrote in high school roll call. Here is 'The Wedgie Poem' by Kimberlie.
Oh wedgie, wedgie why do you come,
up from behind and into the bum?
You sneaky sneak, oh not to be seen,
what to do when your in my jeans?
You feel so good right up there,
I feel at loss when your not there
You make me squirm, you make me pout,
you make me want to yank you out!
There. It has seen the light of day.
Good night.

Ways to pass the time.....

Yes i know, its been a while. I have no excuses. Procrastination is the enemy. I have been in a funk. Some close friends and family have moved lately and i have found myself at loose ends. You's think that would make me write more, but no. I have nothing to write. Nothing to share. That is, until now. I have started 2 things:

1. Cross stitch (yes, am serious) go to www.subversivecrossstitch.com. This woman is a genius!

2. Making eye masks. Have a slight obsession with them. I dont know why considering i dont use them at all. My goal- days of the week eye masks.

So, until uni goes back this is what i am doing. That and co habitating with Brett.

Argh. Has Brittney Spears really gone bald?

ps.- gave myself my first french pedicure today. I heart it. :)
