And so its my birthday tomorrow...

I will begin my 18th year as an existing person. Yay! and not so yay...the whole 'being responsible' thing is making me nervous.

I might go buy a beer, just cuz I can. lol...no actually I wont. My plans for tomorrow include wearing my Sass dress I got from david jones (on sale) going to the movies and eating lunch at the blacktown food court with my brother....yes a glamorous way to spend my birthday. And I think at night I will be having dinner at the revolving resturaunt in blacktown. yup, its all a typical westies birthday :)

Well I have nothing interesting to say, so I will be off.

boring life that I have *sigh*

I'll update you on my birthday later on tomorrow :)

much love

shout out to elle (just for fun...and to see if she's actually reading ;])

Avatar is not the next 'Titanic'

As epic as everyone states it is, it was ok. A bit of a let down for me. I think it was overly political. A good movie (in my opinion) either scares the crap out of you, makes you feel better, or takes you to a place where you forget the real world. But the real world was not forgotten in this film.

Anyway, next time I will see sherlock holmes.

So my peircing on my ear has bubbled up. And I like this one more than the other side...so I'm annoyed. Its either infected or my body is rejecting it. Now if its rejecting my right side, why is it not rejecting the other? I think its infected cuz its hot and when I put the antiseptic stuff on it it stings. So annoying. And cuz I sleep on my side it hurts more.

Anyway, christmas was awesome and it came just as quick as it went.

must be off

much love

what you do when your bored

you write random stuff. you find out the top baby names of the decade*. you google top 10 songs of the decade. you google your name. (did you know Arietta is a canadian band and a wine brand and a place in New York?) You google the top Christmas songs of the decade*. And put your iPod on shuffle to find out what you actually have on there, not just listening to your 'recently added playlist'. Maybe I should do the washing for mum. Give me something to do. But I really dont feel like it.

anyway

much love.

p.s for all those interested. Im feeling better than I was in my last post. :) Everything is much lighter today.

questioning life

So I cleaned my yiayia's house this morning. And got a dental thingo. Mum thought I would have to get braces but turns out I dont. The dentist asked if my teeth bothered me. I said no. So he said he doesnt like to do braces on people who dont care cuz they dont take care of their teeth or something. But whatever. I dont mind either way.

So I've been thinking really hard about some things in my life. Like me. How I am as a person. What I want for my future. Who I want to spend my future with. Stuff like that. Pretty heavy stuff. And I've made my decision to wait. I need to grow, others need to grow. There is a lot of room for improvement. I'm not cutting anyone out of my life. Just taking it slow. But I want everyone to know that its my decision. Its not based on what anyone else wants. Its my life and I have to live with it. Thats why I want people to know that I'm making the decision. I want to make it for myself, not for anyone else. I want to get to the end of my life and have no regrets. I want to look back 20 years from now and be happy with my choices. I want to make the choice because then I am wholly responsible. I cant blame anyone else. I dont want to get used to blaming someone else.

I guess there is many things I dont want to get used to. things like. lying. death. loneliness. blaming others. etc.

So...on a lighter note. I saw abi and carlo yesterday in the shop. Pretty cool. lol.

Also I wanted to say a very big thank you to a very special friend of mine. Recently she told me how much I meant to her. (Hopefully it was me she was talking about ;] ) Thanks for having my back. You know so much about me and thanks for reminding me how much I'm loved. You dont understand how timely that was :) Love you very muchly.

So now that I have everything off my chest I must be off.

Nails done this arvo after 3 weeks (regrowth looks disgusting) stupid pastors christmas dinner tonight (I have no idea what to wear as the fashion/spiritual police will be there....hmmm elle can I borrow an outfit lol....I think you'll know exactly what I should wear) and then like 2 days until CHRISTMAS! Yay! How exciting :)

much love

HSC and fashion jewellery

So I did ok in my marks. I got a lot higher than expected :) mostly 80 and two in the 70's but I did ok. My ATAR was high 70's. I was hoping to get into the 80's but whatever, teachers dont have to be that smart anyway. lol.

So here's a pic of the blue wog lady necklace

You cant see it but the top says 'fashion jewellery' and in my opinion if you have to proclaim to the world that your fashion jewellery then, I'm sorry hun, your not.

You know whats weird though. It was starting to grow on me. But I just looked at it again and there is no chance in hell I would be wearing it.

Anyway....

As I have nothing interesting to say, im going.

much love

:)

and I'm finally back

So after a (unintentional) week break I'm talking again. So much has happened. Uninteresting things happened, like working and cleaning the damn house. And interesting things like going to wollongong with my good friend minus the parents! Yay! lol...and it was funny as at the hotel they had free dvd hire at reception and being two girls who grew up without a tv we watched about 8 different movies. lol...shamefull and lame I know.

We saw 17 again which was quite interesting. I thought it would be lame as it included plastic fantastic zac efron but you know it wasnt that bad. I actually cried. and I dont cry in movies.

Out of the 8 I would have to say my fav was the 90's flick she's all that typical chick flick; jock gets dumped by popular gf + jock gets dared to date nerdy art girl + nerdy art girl hates him + jock falls in love + dare becomes public knowledge + nerdy art girl heartbroken + jock says sorry = nerdy art girls first kiss + happily ever after.

The funny thing about chick flicks is the way we (try to) apply them to our lives. Not only do we relate to the nerdy loner we desperately crave the attention of the jock (or any male for some). Dont get me wrong I'm not dissing girls who do that cuz I am one. Though as we examine reality we find were not that nerdy, and guys are not that fantastic. shock horror, who thought it would be possible that guys are not all they're cracked up to be. I'm not turning lezzo or hoping to become a nun. I'm in what could be called a 'relationship' and I use that term loosely. And though sometimes guys can be absolutely fantastic, they can be downright dimwitted jerks.

But enough of my male species rant (yes they are a species as they cannot possibly be of the same race) HSC results come out tomorrow and ATAR day after that. I think I'll be relieved as I'll finally be able to see if I'm worth the effort put in :P i say that in jest. It will be a relief though to get my marks, to see if exams reflect my assessment marks.

We have a bible study christmas party tonight. secret santa. yay. fingers crossed for no blue wog lady necklace. the thing is haunting me. I might post a photo later :)

much love
