Leather

2009-03-07T05:20:00.000-08:00

So I bought my first leather jacket on Friday!
It's a big purchase for me, as I don't like spending too much money on clothes
But I figured this would be an investment (lol)
& I love love love it
& I will wear it until it falls apart on me

Pics soon.. Hopefully!

Handle With Care

2009-02-04T19:31:00.000-08:00

Ok, so I just finished Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult (due out April).

This was the first Jodi Picoult book where I really struggled to finish it. I found it very repetitive & much too similar to My Sister's Keeper - just a different disease.

There were family problems, questions of morality, several characters having personal problems, it just seemed to be one big book of problems. & very whiny one at that.

It was written very well & I love the style in which Jodi Picoult writes, but this book honestly did nothing for me. I didn't find myself attached to the characters like the other books & surprisingly was not the slightest bit emotional - when it was called for.

Anyway that's just my verdict, I'm sure many others will enjoy it :)

The boy & I celebrated our 19 month anniversary yesterday ! 19 months isn't that big a deal,
I know but we like doing little things
So yesterday I was delivered a gorgeous bunch of off-white/cream roses
& they smell lovely!
I am a lucky lucky girl

Oh Dear

2009-01-29T03:06:00.000-08:00

I need to go on a shopping ban.
Someone please help me!
I have been getting very few, rare & very precious hours from my firs casual job
& nothing from my second, extremely casual job *cries
But I have my 21st coming up
+ friend's birthdays, weddings, etc
oh dearrr

So in my dire financial straits, what do I do?
Buy shoes of course.
Lucky I liked them, were what I was looking for AND cheap.
$40 down from $80 from Pulp & the SA who served me was an absolute angel
So friendly & lovely :)
& they're actually comfy! Yay for fat straps, leather upper & a chunky heel <3>

The Future

2008-12-08T05:22:00.000-08:00

Woo hoo! So my tickets for FMF have been bought! At an amazing $85 - that's with NERD, Basement Jaxx, Paul Oakenfield & Tocadisco ! They're my highlights. Can't wait, should be fun fun!

Also have my tickets to Malaysia! Courtesy mum & dad, gotta love parents :) That's for April, so can't wait! Cousin is getting married, but I'm more excited about meeting some of my little cousins which I haven't seen yet! & also, the shopping, of course.

I usually waste my money on random bits & pieces, I think I'm going to spend it a few key, designer pieces instead. Oh & lots of 24ct gold jewellery :D

So what else is on the agenda for 2009?
- Chicago with mum for her birthday
- FMF
- Malaysia
- PCD Concert - not for sale yet, but I am def going!
- Graduate from uni!!!
- Hopefully secure a FT job *stressing*
- the boy & I's 3 year anniversary!

So, quite a big year, and this is all before June as well! It's going to be fun fun fun xx

Blog Virgin

2008-12-06T06:03:00.000-08:00

Well, not really. I had a Xanga blog for awhile, but I deleted it because that was more whinging than anything else, & not very interesting at all. Not too sure how much better this one will be! But in remembrance of my deceased Xanga blog, I shall start with a whinge:

The ridiculous heat/humidity in Brisbane!

It is driving me around the bend. I know it's summer, & I know it's to be expected. But this is just too far. Really. I can handle heat, I love the sun on my skin but humidity just makes me want to vomit.

And on that note, I think it's time for bed! Night all xxoo
