Things I Love Thursday

♥ Emmy's Vlog of awesome. Subscribe to her YouTube channel HERE.

♥ I ordered 3 geek related necklaces. A Deathly Hallows, a Piece of Eight, and The One Ring. They only cost me $15 for all three, including shipping :)

Deathly Hallows

Piece of Eight

The One Ring!!

 I'm going to be rocking all the FANDOMS!!! I got them from CocoNecklace on Etsy.

♥ Finding out that Lord Voldemort aka Ralph Fiennes is the 9th cousin of Prince Charles! DUDE! Voldemort is like 150th in line to be King of England!!!

 <---- I don't think this man can get any cooler! He's Voldemort, Hades, had kids with River Song (Doctor Who) and now is actually related (by blood) to the Royal Family! Plus.... SPOILERS (he's the new M in James Bond) Seriously...!

♥ I have bootcamped my iMac. For non-tech people that means that I can now run OSX (Normal Apple Operating System ) and Windows on my iMac. So now I can play Simcity (which is AWESOME) and I'm currently downloading Don't Starve on Steam. I'm excited!

I really love the graphics. Indie games today aren't just games, they're artworks. Don't Starve, The Cave, they're all so beautiful. So much love has gone into them!

♥ Getting Mail! This week I got a textbook (woo!) called Staying Healthy in Childcare (it was free from the governement, so I'm not complaining) my ASOS order (will blog about it soon) and awesome presents from Emmy! (I did a post about it HERE)

THAT'S IT FOR TODAY!

Happy Thursday everyone.

Also have a happy Easter.

Presents!!!!!!

I got mail today!

From Emma aka Cupquake Stormageddon (my dad was very confused)

There was 2 Parcels!

One of them my dad had opened because it was wet :0

But he managed to save the contents... more later!

BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!

Even if my birthday was in November... last year :P

I'm excited about eating the Pop-tarts. I've never had them before!

First the card....

Best. Card. Ever!

But I need to return it, because none of the buttons work.

Now the best bit.

The present!

Super glittery Typo Journal

to fill with awesome things that make me happy.

AWESOME POST ITS! :O

The other parcel, that my dad saved had the awesomest present ever!

Baking Bucket List

Baking Bucket List

will be updated regularly :D

Cake Pops.

Angel Food Cake - even if it uses a WHOLE dozen of eggs! 12 freaking eggs! and not just the whole eggs, just the egg whites!! That's crazy! It will definitely be a celebration cake!

Souffle.

Profiteroles.

Eclairs.

Some sort of Pie with pastry made from scratch!

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup cupcakes.

Adriano Zumbo box Macarons! (available at Woolworths) I currently have a Salted Caramel box.
first try was an epic failure. I followed the instruction (it said beat for 4 minutes) 15 minutes later the egg still hadn't stiffened. So I kept going. But I don't think I went long enough so they didn't rise probably. :)

Diet Coke Cupcakes (requested by @plainprincess)

ONE

Got excited over the release of the FIRST R18+ game in Australia. For all those in other countries, Australia has never had 18+ games... which means that the games were edited down to get a 15+ rating, or banned! Now finally after years of waiting and signing petitions... AUSTRALIA has 18+ rating for video games!

TWO

Derpy face me!

THREE

Getting all OCD over tablets not matching the right way in the Panadol packages!

FOUR

Mango Macaroons from McDonalds! I hate Mango, but they were the only ones left. But dispite the mango flavour... they were delicious!

FIVE

Simcity guide book. Since I can't play Simcity yet, I will get my fix by reading all the info and watching ALL the youtube videos!

SIX

Chocolate Macaroons from McDonalds. This was super YUMMY! I actually walk into McDonalds to order my food now, just so I can see if they have Macaroons!

SEVEN

Woolworths sell Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. So tempted to cook Chocolate Cupcakes and stick a Peanut Butter Cup inside them! YUMMMY!

EIGHT

Midnight DIY Geometric Stag. I was bored at midnight, so I drew on my bag. This is the result! Looks pretty snazzy!

Hope everyone is having a great day/week.

Leave a comment about what you did in the last week.

Tattoo Talk... again!

The reason why I don't have any tattoos yet is because I don't know what I want.
I'm so indecisive!
Also because most of the designs I want, I want on my forearm... and well, I only have 2 forearms!
I have so many awesome ideas. Those are only a few of them!
Then, my stupid brain, that hasn't learnt how to be a free thinker yet, is worried about what "society" will think. Especially since I'm studying childcare! But it's so stupid, because so many parents have tattoos, so why can't the childcare educators?!

The first assignment from the How to be a Fat Bitch e-course is about acceptance. About being yourself and not worrying about labels. Especially the "fat" label. About doing things that make you happy! I added "Make a tattoo appointment", and I really want to make it! But I don't want to make it when I'm unprepared!

I'm not seeking any approval on tattoo designs. This is my way of making decisions :D talking through it :D

Anyway, enough chatter :D

Fat Bitch. Assignment 1

I've registered for Nearsighted Owls "How to be a Fat Bitch" ecourse. Part one is "You are not giving up"

Today's assignment is as follows:

Write down 5 things that you are going to do that make you happy. Not "even though you are fat" but because you are fat and awesome. 5 things that have nothing to do with trying for the sake of others. 5 things for yourself and your well being. Like "go out dancing and actually dance", "throw away my scale", "make something yummy and bring it to work to share", "join a yoga class" and "wear that tight leopard skirt". Blog it, Instagram it, Tweet it (#fatbitchecourse, #nearsightedowl), etc. and share it in the comments below. EXTRA CREDIT: Do some of them!

So here we go :D

5 Things That Will Make Me HAPPY!!
1. Enrol in the Cake Decorating class at the local TAFE. It will cost $200 for 2 night classes, but it will be awesome!
2. Wear clothing that I like, not what everyone else wants me to wear.
3. Make an appointment to get my tattoo.
4. Try (REALLY TRY) not giving a shit about what one certain person in my life thinks of me, says, does etc. She doesn't matter!!!
5. Be more social :D

Hopefully I'll be able to pull all of them off. Hopefully I can do it!!!! Wish me luck!!

EDIT (added 9/03/13)

I've had a few people ask why I'd want to be a "bitch"

This e-course is not about making me into a "rude, mean evil" sort of "bitch" more of a "I don't care what you think of me" sort of "bitch"

I'm a nice person and always have been, my main problem (yes it's a problem) is I worry too much about making sure other people are happy, before making sure I'm happy.

You think you can be either "Selfish" or "Selfless" but you can actually be both and still be a nice person. Some people don't know how to pull that off.

I'm in the process of trying to become more "selfish".

You may think that that sounds like a bad idea.

I'm not being selfish as in, "I won't help someone" I'm becoming selfish as in "I will wear/do/think what I want, and not what you want!" etc.

I hope you understand what I'm going on about.

It's about finding that middle point between, being who you want to be, but still being a nice, generous person.

I hope I will find it one day.
