Warning: Strong Language.

I haven't blogged much at all have I? It just kinda ... depleted. So I finally remembered some things to blog about.

1. I recently made another bag. Because I get bored easily etc etc. I think it looks pretty good :D



2. I got a dailybooth. Weewt !

3. I have accepted Bachelor of Science at Melbourne Uni. Doing Psychology, Biology and Fundamental Chem as my subjects + 2 more breadth subjects which I have no interest in taking because nothing looks interesting. But I'll just have to pick something anyways. I'll hopefully be majoring in Neuroscience by the end of my 3rd year =D I'm super excited.

4. On Australia Day... DELETED.

You probably didn't think that could come from me (: But I said it and I mean it. That's saying something, coming from me.

OTHER THAN THAT. I had an AMAZING day with my friends at Chelsea beach. I just wanna say a HUGE-ASS thank-you to Harry because he is an awesome human being. Thanks for organising everything and carrying all that stuff. But yes, you are the bees knees C= I MEAN IT ! Hopefully not too many people got sunburnt. Oh and a shoutout to Serry (although he won't read this) - thanks for bringing the beach tent and esky and all the other stuff. To E, thanks for taking me home. And to everyone else (: thanks for being there and making it such a great day =D x

5. I moved a lovely study table to my room, which will be dedicated to my study in twenty-ten.

6. OH ! And I got a tripod :D IT'S so lightweight .. and .. wow.

Tata. That is all !

"Crying Men" - Sam Taylor Wood

I wanted to share this with you because I thought it was... Amazing!

"Crying Men is a series of photographic portraits of famous film actors. Sam Taylor-Wood makes portraits of her subjects as actors; she shoots them in role, asking each to perform and cry for the camera and demands the actor’s investment in the process. These are no passive sitters. Each of the resulting images is distinct; one actor recalls the hieratic clarity of a Byzantine saint whose tears appear decorative. Other images are of heroic crying where stoic restraint has broken down, there are some that display the voluptuous crying of medieval saints, there are images of cathartic crying, quiet tears of regret and grief, and yet whilst being moved by these intimate revelatory images we simultaneously know that the emotional display is being play-acted. Sam Taylor-Wood’s film and photographic works are distinguished by their subversive creation of enigmatic situations full of latent but explosive energy. The portraits include Tim Roth, Gabriel Byrne, Laurence Fishburne, Woody Harrelson, Michael Gambon, Jude Law, Hayden Christiansen, Ryan Gosling, Robert Downey Jr., Paul Newman, Ed Harris, Benicio Del Toro, Willem Dafoe, and Kris Kristofferson." - HERE

Finally

I booked my Learners test for Monday 18th at 1.20PM.
LOL. I KNOW. I'M SUPER SLOW.

I've been doing heaps of the online tests. It's boring now.

So what have I been up to lately? Hold on, let me get my diary. mY LAST BLOG WAS woah. Caps. Um my last blog was about Chelsea right? Well... Nothing much happened since then. Which I think is the cause to my uninspired-ness to blog. Not that many miss it. But still. I'm sure I'll treasure it when i'm like 20 and I'll be reading my first/early blogs.

For one I found givesmehope.com. It's amazing. Through that I found, lovegivesmehope.com. Theres not much there but it's super cute.

ANOTHER think. Paolo got the Nikon D3000. I'm on the verge of getting one soon hopefully. I'm pretty much at a toss up between like 4 cameras. Which ... I can only recall 3 ? Dangit. Well anyways. I'll see how I go. If anything happens, I'll be sure to update then (: You probably won't just hear it here. I'll be bouncing off walls if I get one.

So today, I watched Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009, as I realised there was one made in the 1970s as well). Yesterday I watched Monsters Vs. Aliens. Loving B.O.B. He's awesome :D

I think that's a sufficient update. I'm off to .. maybe watch another movie as I melt in potato-ness.

Oh and, for my birthday? (which is in a while) A dwarf hamster please. Funny how this is the first time I'm tell you something I want right? Well that's because dwarf hamsters are illegal in Australia. Hahahaha. =P








Squished like no tomorrow !


I'm off now :D

Importance.

"Take a picture of your life...



Remember what it looks like,






Before it all changes."

P.S. something I found on PostSecret. Something, I think, I'd live by.

Sewing + Chelsea beach.

SO. Ok... Well .. I think I found an interest in sewing. Very simple - straight lines, sort of sewing. Same stitch type of sewing. I made a bag (: For the beach. I used an old cotton on bag as a reference (:

First I measured the bag and duplicated the pieces needed out of calico etc ... Actually .. You don't need to know how ! Just how it looked at the end right ?! Yeahh. :D Check it out below.

The the duplicate (calico material) was like a bag that snugly fit over the original cotton on bag.


And a bow to ... make it less plain.

I even made a pocket on the inside for the valuables. But yes. It's bright blue, and now I look at it, It looks funny. So I'll leave it at that. I'm quite amazed at what I acheived. At the beginning I was thinking to myself I'd screw it up tremendously. Obviously, it turned out ok :D And it was a few hours well spent. (Yes, a few hours)

About today: I went to Chelsea beach with Evan, Emily, Paolo, Jeannette, Cords and Nathan. It was really good :D Amazingness fun of course. The weather and the company were the best though.


You guys just made it so much more fun ♥

N: "Isn't Ke$ha spelt KE-EE-ESS-HAYCH-A? .......... Did I just say 'KEE' ?" LMAO
K: "Nah it's like KAY-EE-DOUBLE-HAYCH-A?"
N: "Did YOU just say DOUBLE?"

Omg. I think I have a speech impediment. And to think I was contemplating doing speech therapy at LaTrobe. Idiot.

Ta-ta kids.

Happy Birthday, Sarah.

I've been researching so much. My head hurts. I think I know what to do. What to get. Hello (: I hope this will enhance my creativity and widen my perspective on my surroundings. My new projects for the following days: Make a quilt cover set. I think I can do it. I know I can. Choo choooo. Chugga chugga chugga.

In other news.

Happy 20th birthday Sarah. Hope you had an amazing day and hope you enjoy the present I chose that didn't even fit you. I'm sorry. Say thanks to m&d. They paid, I picked.


Funnily they look very similar to these. Minus the red. And more shinier. Lololol. Yes, thank you. I have good taste. Kidding!

New black shiny pumps from Zu. Enjoy ♥

I love you !

Curtains ruin my ability to approximate time.

So. I have been busy lately. It has come to a point where I need to number off what I want to say, once again, here we go. (Lots of pictures btw for your entertainment)

1. I made a set of curtains ... For my bedroom ! They worked a BIT too well today, I'll explain later.

The brackets must first be installed. Dad did that. Thank you :D :D


After measurements were made the hem must be ... hemmed !


Just look how amazing they look. Yahahaha.


And assemble ! :D I like them. Curtains change the way a room looks. Redecorate your room (: Tell me how it looks :D

2. I finally put some pictures up on my wall. I have a wall dedicated to family, friends and a yet to have some photos, photography. Don't mind the bright pink pillow. It's so comfy ... it's amazing.


3. I went out today. If I were vlogging I'd call this a "Haul" vlog, but .. it's not. because I really didn't buy much. But yeah. New pair of jeans and jacket for 30 altogether. WIN. And a bag Evan got me for ... "21st" Ahh .. Lol. SO STORY ABOUT THE CURTAINS. They worked so well that when I awoke this morning the room was SO dark I was like "hmm ... It's like .. 6am or something." I rolled over and I though "...plus 5 hours ... 11 am ?! OMG CRAPPPPPP" Due to the fact I was MEANT to be at chaddy at 11. Heh. I was relying on my body clock =C It's usually right. USUALLY. These curtains worked too well. How lazy is this. Sarah and I WAITED for the bus to take us to BHC when we could've just walked. I can see a fat kat emerging.

She likes the sun.


I like the shade.


Met up with Evan at Chadstone and proceeded to walk around and shop. It was fun ♥ He got a pair of new shorts and jeans. WIN ! FINALLY decided to eat. Pancake parlour it was. HELLO SHORTSTACK. YOU'RE ONLY GOOD IN SMALL PORTIONS. OTHER THAN THAT YOU'RE SICKLY SWEET. BUT YOU STILL TASTE AMAZING. YET STILL NOT WORTH 9.30 UNLESS YOUR IDENTICAL TWIN IS GIVEN FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ! Yum.


That is all my fellow friendlings. I hope to be in contact soon.
