Life Update...

It's time for another "life update"...

Christmas - was spent at my aunt and uncles place with pretty much my whole family (minus a few we don't speak of) I got to spend the whole day playing with my cousin Logan and cuddling my new baby cousin (and godson) Seth. I received a Blu-Ray player, a cassette iPhone cover, and vouchers to Things Living, Dymocks and Coles Myer. It was fun, but a little bit sad, because a couple days before we received news that a family friend had died :(

New Years Eve - was spend at work, until 5pm and then to my friends 26th Birthday/Tim Burton NYE party. Everyone dressed up (including me... I went as Voodoo Girl) and had an awesome time. I don't drink, so it was pretty funny watching my friends get drunk :) We left the party at about 11pm and then went to mums' to watch the midnight fireworks.

1st January 2012 - If you follow me on Twitter you would of seen that January 1st was this blogs 4th Birthday, but when I came home from work (yes! I had to work New Years Day) I had the worst headache so I went to bed. 4 years is a really long time to have a blog :O It has gone by many names over the years, but has never really changed much. You should take a look at the archive and read some old posts!

My 2012 Bucket List is here... I've already watched 2 new movies this year (The Adventures Of Tintin and War Horse) and I'm planning the first blog competition, but other than that it's pretty much been minecraft and procrastination...

Reading... Geek Girls Unite

CRUSHING ON... Adrien Brody (again)

wasting my iPhones' battery with... 

Pocket Academy

Now that my work shifts are back to normal, I can plan more posts. I have a couple to do, but my Procrastination Fairy likes to send a lot of time hanging around.

what ‘geeky’ things do you like? :)

This was a question posted on She-Geeks Unite (a brand new Facebook group, created by awesome people) and it made me think... what 'geeky' things DO I like?!

Star Trek
Star Wars
Minecraft
Tim Burton
The Lord Of The Rings
Harry Potter
Keri Smith books
Neil Gaiman
The Sims
Doctor Who
Scott Pilgrim
Comic Books
Steampunk
Skyrim
Apple Products
Anime
Books about Geeks
The Hitch-Hikers Guide To The Galaxy
The IT Crowd
The Big Bang Theory
Futurama
Guillermo Del Toro
Going to the Cinema on my own
Tin Robots
Button Badges and;
many many many more!

Of course this list will go on and on, and I'm sure that some of the things in the list are probably not very 'geeky'...

Currently...

Listening... Elton John. My dad bought the CD so I put it on my computer. There are so many songs I knew, but didn’t realise where Elton John songs!

Reading... Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone. Started this morning... almost finish :)

Watching... Nothing, even with 16 new tv channels there is still nothing worth watching on... except Star Trek on Thursday night... but I have work on Thursday nights :(

Playing... SKYRIM. I bought a HDMI cord to plug my Xbox into my new FULL HD television... and now Skyrim looks fucking AMAZING!

Buying... Christmas Presents. Almost finish, only a couple people left to buy for. Thank god for family Secret Santa, means I only have to buy one present for the extended family, not 15 :)

Wanting... ADSL. Dad rang Telstra and asked to be put on the list of people waiting for ADSL in Albany. Dad then ran into one of his mates who works for Telstra... who then pushed us up the list a little :D

Trying... not to let pissy customers upset me. Christmas is NO EXCUSE to be a Bastard/Bitch. I’m stressed about Christmas too... so freaking get over it.

Loving... the fact that my cat is asleep on my feet for some reason (he’s never done it before)

Planning... Sydney trip for Harry Potter exhibition next year. Had plans to go in February, but work wont give me time off, because the other Sound Bar Lady MAY need February off. :(

Writing... in my 2011 Diary. Still haven’t been able to write in my new 2012 Diary yet (even though I have things that I can put in it) it’s always scary putting the first mark in a new diary :)

I know I've been a bit AWOL over the last couple of weeks.... but you know, Christmas :)

Next year I'm going to have a weekly blog plan... or something :)

Tattoo Fail

I attempted to cross something off my Bucket List last Monday, but failed... well I didn’t failed, the most important person in the whole scheme... the TATTOO ARTIST!
Yes, that is right, I was going to get a tattoo last Monday, but my tattoo artist decided he wanted to injure himself... enough, that he’s not available until January 9th. *sadface*
I was quite upset to begin with, but after I got over it, I realised that I probably wasn’t completely ready to get a tattoo. I was having second thoughts about the design, I was having issues with money... so it worked out okay. I will still be getting a tattoo, I just don’t know when.

On Monday I will crossing something rather considerable off my Bucket List.

Xmas Wishlist (handwritten)

I Failed NaBloPoMo...

... but I'm not too worried about it. Coming up to Christmas things get a little bit crazy, and they're going to get worse before they get better.

What happened in the last couple of weeks?

20th November - It was my birthday, my 25th! I'm a quarter of a century old. I didn't do anything, and it was awesome. I spent most of the day playing Skyrim (which is freaking awesome) and just chilling out. Presents included; a $100 gift voucher from Dad, a Creeper plushies (made by my sister Kaitlin), a ukelele and money. My sisters also baked me the awesomeest Minecraft cake.

The week after my birthday was pretty normal. On Saturday, mum and I went to Perth (that was my birthday present from her) She went to the Casino on Saturday night and won $300, on Sunday we went to the Perth Zoo and Freo Markets, and on Monday we went shopping. Awesome Emma was suppose to come shopping on Monday, but she was sick :(

I went home with a pretty good haul of goodies (mostly from Typo)

Sorry about crappy photo! It was a good weekend! But I'm glad the week is over and now I have 3 days off before I'm back to work next week. YAY!

Stay Cool Dudes!
