Things I Love Thursday


the official partners of Yogscast Zoey, Rythian and Nilesy. 
I want all the merch! I especially wanted the signed Rythian art print!
It's freaking amazing! And it was of £30 with free shipping. 
But there was only 50 and they sold out :(






Somewhere where no one will judge you.







There are so many good movies out this year.
Including STAR TREK! Ironman 3, Elysium, Oblivion plus a million more, including this.....
Never been a big fan of Superman
but I'm a huge huge fan of Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan.
This movie will be amazeballs.
I hope this means they will start to develop the DC comic world into films.



Super excited about International Geek Girl Pen Pals Club
I've been planning awesome letter ideas
and looking at awesome stationery
I've also joined a few blogs and other communities including a Harry Potter role-play
I've never done role-playing online before.
I'm not sure how it works etc.
But it should be fun :D

Hope you enjoyed this.
I'm going to order some awesome loot.
I'm going to be the best geek girl pen pal EVER :)

I'm a Survivor

I survived camping!
I bed was uncomfortable.
So I used 2 matresses.

There was heaps of Rhino Beetles all over the place
And I saw heaps of different birds!
And I did send some time with kids
But mostly I was cleaning.

Came home.
Slept in my bed.
The I woke up with a sore back... again :(
So I had to miss another day of Prac.
Which stresses me out even more!

I did mange to get some TAFE stuff done today.
I made a hygiene poster about washing hands.

I'm rewatching Yogscasts' Shadow of Israphel.
I usually do this when I'm in a down mood.
Which I am :(

While camping I got to hang out with my cousins Logan and Seth.
Which was so much fun!

I also watched Paranorman
Which was AWESOME!
It was the movie that was competing with Frankenweenie.
And as much as I love Tim Burton.
Paranorman was so much better than Frankenweenie!

Anyway, off to do more TAFE work.
Bye-ee

PS 
Round 3 opens at 9PM Australian Eastern Standard Time
Places will fill quick.
But you can still join the site and be involved in the forums.

IGGPPC, Cakes & Book Rewards

I've joined the International Geek Girl Pen Pals Club.
You sign up to become a member of the forum and get sorted into a house
HOUSE GLADOS for the win!

Then when the time is right.... 
April 15 you sign up and you get given a pen pal!
A real life, snail mail pen pal! 
I'm so excited. 
This will be Round 3. 
Round 1 & 2 filled up really fast and I missed out 
so this time to guarantee a spot I donated $5 to IGGPPC :D

This weekend I'm going camping.
I mentioned it before.
But I didn't mention that it's with Kids Central
And I'll actually be helping supervise 20, 8-12 year olds.
They're doing an overnight bike ride.
I'm not riding, but I am transporting dinner to them on Saturday
Then staying overnight.
Right at the moment I'm baking dessert.
2 HUGE cakes.
One Apple and Custard Cake
and one Pineapple and Coconut Cake.
I hope they like them.

:)

I should really figure out my geek girl obsessions
Doctor Who
Harry Potter
Lord of the Rings/ The Hobbit
Star Wars
Minecraft
Adventure Time
Douglas Adams

of course there's more :D

Seriously I'm really confused.
So the aforementioned Coconut Cake Recipe is:

1 cup Self Raising Flour
1 cup of Sugar
1 Cup of Coconut
3/4 Cup of Milk
Mix together and bake in 180c for 30 minutes!

I've always been told that a cake will not work unless there is egg in it
So how does the coconut cake work without eggs!!
HOW?!?!
I don't know how...
but it works!

Bought this book today.
Haven't looked at it yet.
Using it as a reward for finishing all my work today!
Almost done!
Just need to wrap up the cakes and put them in the freezer :D

Anyway.
I'm off for now.
Stay Awesome :D

stuff and children's books!

What a day!
The children must of all been given crazy pills today!

It didn't help that it was hot and we had tree loppers there cutting down trees.
The children loved watching the man in the cherry picker cutting the branches.
cheap and easy entertainment.

I'm going camping on the weekend.
Something I haven't done in who knows how long (because I don't)
It's not tent camping, it's cabin camping.
And there will be a power point in the cabin
so I'm not going off the grid.
And knowing my luck,
the internet will have better reception out there, than it does here!

Didn't gym today :D
But considering I spent the whole day chasing children around
I think I'll be okay.
Also lost 1.1kg this week.
I have decided that I'm probably not going to vlog again anytime soon.
It's not my thing.

I tried to sign up for a cake decorating class but the lecturer hurt her hand.
So I don't think it's running anymore.
Which makes me sad, because I was looking forward to it. :(

QUESTION!
Why are children's books so expensive?
I found some awesome books I want to add to my collection...
like this one...
I was able to have a look through it, and there's a "Geek Dad"
and he has posters of nebulas, geek glasses and a Dalek figure.
It's awesome!

I also want ALL the books by Oliver Jeffers
He's an author and an illustrator.
But most importantly an illustrator.
His art is amazing.
It's whimsical and quirky and oh so pretty!
Plus, he's not bad on the eyes either.


I have one of his books.
How To Catch a Star.
As part of my childcare course we need to make a puppet
So I'm going to make a "Boy" puppet.
Nice and simple.
Should work well.

Anyway, that's me for the evening.
Love you all.

untitled :D

Gym today.
Only managed 20 minutes before i died.
20 minutes is better than NOTHING!
It was so busy there today!
All the treadmills where full.

I watched Cloud Atlas.
Everyone was saying it was too hard to follow.
I didn't have any trouble.
I did have to google the timeline at the beginning.
But that was because all the subtitles and information where in Russian.

Motivation is being a bitch.
Like always.
I bet you're all getting sick of listening to me whinge :D
I'm going to be more positive.

I'm going to try and make my tattoo appointment this week.
I'm going to try and make it on May 22.
It's an important day in the Douglas Adams calendar.
It's Towel Day.
google it :D

Anyway.
Short post today :D
Love you all!!!

Things I Love Thursday (not really :D)


Ben Whishaw playing Q in Skyfall
When he said;
"I can do more damage on my laptop, sitting in my pajamas, before my first cup of Earl Grey than you can do a year in the field."
My first thought was "I'd like to see you in your pajamas."
Then I had slashy fangirly thoughts.
QxBond
Skyfall was pretty much one huge slash fest.

And when (SLIGHT SPOILERS) Silva started hitting on Bond....
all the fangirl feels!
(END OF SLIGHT SPOILER)

I joined the gym.
Haven't gone yet.
Might go after work tomorrow night.
I'm a little nervous.
I need someone to explain gym etiquette to me.
:)

Feeling confident today.
Better than the last 2 days.
I really need to be busy or my mind starts to wander.
time off work and tafe, as much as I love it... is probably a bad idea.

I'm getting really into planning my Pilgrimage.
There was a period where I was really into it.
Then it stopped.
But now it's back.
I'm thinking of getting "Camino" tattooed on my arm
so it would be a constant reminder.
Camino means Path in Spanish (I think... Spanish friends please correct me if I'm wrong)
I was thinking of getting "Camino Correcto" which is "Right Path"
I need to find some Spanish sayings that have "Camino" in them.
For all those wondering, the pilgrimage is called Camino de Santiago
or The Way of Saint James.
That's why I joined the gym.
Motivation.

This isn't much of a Things I Love Thursday.
Let me know what you love.
Inspire me.
Awesome Sweaters
Funny online comics
Polyvore Sets.
Geekery.
ANYTHING!
