Things I Love Thursday

Things I Love Thursday...
  • Clean bedroom. I finally got sick of being surrounded with crap, so I've cleaned up. Found a couple of things I was looking for, which is always a good thing.
  • my blog buddy Emma has opened her online store. She makes beaded jewelery and it all looks awesome. check it out.
  • 30 Day Project is going well. I've missed some days and posted more than once on others, I'm not really following the rules, but since it's my blog I can break the rules. Like I mentioned previously I'm stuck of Day 13 - A Fictional Book. Might have to skip it and come back to it later.
  • First Audio Post was post on Tuesday. It was mainly done so my American friends on LJ could listen and laugh at my accent, which I still don't believe I have =D but can't wait to go overseas and have one =D
  • PAY RISE! going from $18 an hour to $20, and we get back pay from July 1st.
  • new FUTURAMA. I know season 6 has been out for awhile, but I downloaded the first episode last night and it was awesome. I can't to download more.
  • Feeling less bloated, because I'm currently on a "semi" detox. I've generally just cut down on the Pepsi Max and started drinking more water. I'm considering cutting out sugar. Last time I did it I managed to go almost a month without sugar.
I found my favourite scarf (just in time for spring) doh!
Australia has the bestest Scott Pilgrim poster... if you ignore Michael Cera

Things I Hate Thursday...
  • The possibility that Soundwave 2011 will be crap, so far the only band I like that is going is 30 Seconds To Mars, but I'm not paying $150 to see them again. There was news of a leaked list (which is made official tonight 10pm WA Time) and the head liner is apparently Iron Maiden. I am not a fan. Also on the list is Rob Zombie, Slayer, Slash.... mostly metal bands that I don't like. Hopefully the leak was fake, and if not, hopefully the second announcement will have some "good" bands.
  • Freaking huge, painful bruise from where the stupid nurse was poking me trying to take my blood. And it's freaking swollen too.
  • I think my computer has a virus. When I hit the Windows button the start menu comes up empty, until I run my mouse over it and the words appear =(
I want the middle shirt, but they don't make them anymore =(
  • People who let their children run around stores and do whatever the fuck they want. it's a long story but here's the short version. 2 girls. aged 6-9 (not sure). throwing DVDs at each other. DVD hits another kid. kid screams. parents of screaming kids comes running. guess who parent yells at? ME! because apparently it's my fault because I work here... and it's not the fucking parent of the girls. who at this point are just standing watching me get yelled at. I stayed calm. I told her, it was out of my control. so she said she was never coming back. good fucking riddance.
That's it for today. Hope you enjoyed it. Let me know in the comments the things you love this Thursday.

Stupid Brain

I'm having trouble with Day 13 - A fictional book. I just don't know what to post about. I have 3 drafts for it, all with different books, and all of them I've given up on. I know I shouldn't put so much thought into it.
Today I watched Nanny McPhee and The Big Bang, I don't know why I rented it in the first place, but I'm glad I did. I quite enjoyed it. And... Ewan McGregor had a cameo, as the country childrens' father, and Ralph Fiennes as the city childrens' father. It was nice, funny, not-much thinking sort of movie.

I also (if you haven't already noticed) post my first audio post, I hope it works for everyone. I'm looking forward to doing another one. I also started writing again. Albeit a fanfic, an Inglourious Basterds fanfic, it's still writting, and I have managed (in 2 days) to fill almost 50 pages in my journal (it's an A5 sized journal, and the writing is Double Spaced) but still, I'm very proud of myself, but don't expect to read it anytime soon, this is the 5th re-write =D

Off to make dinner now. Well try and post Day 13 tonight.

Audio Post #1

May I present. My very first audio post! It's quite exciting. I've never been a fan of hearing my voice played back, but I don't actually think I sound that bad, considering that's what everyone else hears when I talk anyway.
Now marvel at my Australian-ness (which I can't tell anyway, but I'm sure all the non-Aussie readers will) and enjoy.

Priest Trailer

Oh. Em. Gee. It's finally real.
May I present, the teaser trailer for the movie I've been waiting for since it was announced... PRIEST
Based on a manga, and staring Paul Bettany as the Priest, some guy from True Blood, some guy from Twilight and Karl fucking Urban as Blackhat (the badass Vampire bad guy) yep, it's a Vampire movie... and as much as I hate vampire films... this one I can't wait. These aren't your "regular" sexy vampires (except, obviously.... Karl Urban) these are violent vampires =D
for your information, Karl Urban is the one with the Black Hat =D

Day 12 — Whatever tickles your fancy

Since I sorted out my photos on my computer (well kind of) I thought I'd post a "blast from the past" picspam, using only pictures I already have on my computer.

Day 11 — A photo of you taken recently

This is me (obviously) in Melbourne (Federation Square to be exact) looking very warm (it was fucking freezing that day, about 8 degrees Celsius).
I poladroided the picture myself. I wish I had a real polaroid camera. =D
The date is: Monday June 28th 2010.

Day 10 — A photo of you taken over ten years ago

I honestly don't have any photos of me taken before 2005. =O
So I don't know what I'm going to do about it.
Sorry about the crap crap crap quality, it was taken in the dark on a crappy 2MB camera phone. But this is me with Wil Francis from the band Aiden. This photo was taken in 2007 (so it doesn't really fall into the category, but it's the best I can do) I'm not a big fan of Aiden, I like a couple of their songs, and they were there and the line was short =D (we were actually the last ones in the line)
The date is: Friday 19th October 2007.
