Did you know that....

I have pink leg warmers? No? Well i do. Here they are. I love them.

Activites of an umemployed lass.

Day one....

1. Wake up by a phone call from my mother at 9. She is coming over in an hour.
2. Lay in bed and think 'yep, i could get used to this'
3. Get up and put on 3rd Rock from the Sun. Eat breakfast & drink copious amounts of black tea.
4. Mum comes over. We go makeup and grocery shopping.
5. Come home and have lunch while watching 3rd Rock (yes, again)
6. Get on the internet. Do everything except what i am supposed to be doing- assingment.
7. Think of what to cook for dinner.
8. This

:)

Tourture!

Is it because i am (as of tomorrow) unemployed that i want to buy things?? Here is my list:
1. Boots (I tink about 4 pairs should do it)
2. Work shoes (ones that will look pretty with tights)
3. A couple of adaptable pieces for work and play
4. Oh, and a doona cover. Love Peter Alexander!!!

With this in mind, look what i have stumbled across! Granted, the prices below are a bit more that i wanted to pay, BUT i also dont want to buy crap.

French Kitty coat ($120 BUT thats good for a coat, and this would be my more casual coat AND the hood detaches. It's versatile!)



and this cute one from Ben Sherman ($110- a bit pricey, but you do get a camilsole to wear under it, so really thats just $55 for each-bargain!)



oh, and how cute is this!! $200 from Peter Alexander

Point form works for me!

* Sh*t! have assignments due. Have not done said assignments.
* Still no place to live in Brisbane. Getting close though...! Possibly New Farm?
* Last day of work Friday! Hooray!
* Possum got me a GHD hair straightener for my birthday. I am a very happy girl. He also bought me some vanilla body butter- it smells so good! I smell like a bakery!
* There is waaaay to much chocolate in my house.

The end.

Excitement!

It's my birthday tomorrow!

Yes, i am one of those people who ALWAYS get excited over birthdays, wether they are mine or not. I plan months in advance on what i want to get people, and am often more excited than they are when the day comes.

Why? Don't know. Could be because i am a wee bit childish. Or, it could just be that i like shopping ;)

I have been telling possum many possible presents that he could buy me over the last couple of months, becuase lets face it- guys cant take a hint. In saying that, im still not sure that he has bought anything yet. He just keeps putting things off...

I will keep you updated....

Good times.

It's possible that i need to buy this top.





Thoughts?

Tuff stuff

I resigned from my job today which i have been at for 8 years- since i was 18. This is my first job. I have had others in conjunction with this job, but this has always been my 'proper' job.

I am a bit sad. I will miss sooo many people- workmates, clients, and even the people i order the office stationery from. We bonded over paper and staplers.

Oh well, i have ended an era that was basically a 3rd of my life.

Shit.

Anyone want to buy a car? Or a house?

Well it's official. Brett & I are moving to Brisbane, QLD. In a month, aka 30 days.
In that time we have to:

1. Sell our house. :( (we will be renters once again)
2. Sell both our cars (his jobs comes with one and we will be living right in the city so i shouldnt need one)
3. Resign from our jobs.
4. Move! Well, that shouldnt be too bad as the movers etc are supplied.
5. I have to find a new job. Although im not too concerned, because our rent will be paid for 6 weeks by the new employers so i get to take my time to find a job that i actually might like !
6. Since Uni is now by correspondence i dont have to do much there, except get some assignments out of the way.

On another note, i tried a different hair dresser this morning and i love them, but now i have to move away. I'm sure most of you gals out there feel my pain.

I also have had a migrain all day. This one was particulary fierce, as it felt like someone was playing tennis with a brick in my head. Nice.

I want this so very badly..

It's so pretty. And it's only $25.

Bargain.

Here is where you can buy it. Although, i would be a wee bit upset if you bought this one before me..!
:)


Oh,oh and this!



love, love , love Etsy!

A post about stuff....

Well, it's been a few days so i thought i should do a post. There have been a few random things going on that have kept me...preoccupied. Let's see shall we?

1. High possibility of moving to a whole new state.
2. My lovely brother came out of the closest. Love him.
3. Work issues.
4. Am turning 26 soon- HAVING 1/4 LIFE CRISIS.
5. I have looked at my credit card bill.... (enough said)
6. Am PMSing and.....
7. Have not chocolate left in the house! Am resorting to picking the chocolate chips of my muesli bars.
8. For some reason i find myself obsessed with The Biggest Loser.

Waitress

So has anyone else seen the movie Waitress ?

I can not recommend it enough. A brilliant & funny movie. Favourite character has to be the doctor. I love the nerdy, neurotic types.... :)

Also sad though, becuse the lady Adrienne Shelley who wrote, directed & starred in it was murdered. So sad.

Birthday Ideas

Possum, if you are reading this & need ideas please see below. Everyone else, I like cups!





All of these items are available here

Did you know...

that Plato was against the written word? He thought that pieces of text would take the place of genuine wisdom, and would promote stupidity & vanity. That true intelligence had to be thought, sought, & discussed.

Ironically, it is through text that I am aware of this.

Wrap me up!

Yes, i have been shopping. Just a wee bit though. It is getting a bit chilly in the land down under, so i thought it was time to invest in this coat by GRAB.


I invested at the right time too! They were having a leap year/day sale with 35% off everything. I ended up getting the coat for $115 delivered as opposed to $175..

You must visit this shopping paradise

Gotta love Ebay...

because i just scored this bag for $30
