milestones

I just realised why I procrastinated that last post. IT WAS MY 100 POST. Thats an insane amount of words. And to think most of it is just me rambling about crap all. How cool is that?? Also, I've surpassed 700 days. I only have 600 and something days left. HOLY SHIT. I mean, oh dear. And also, 'oh dear', my 100th post was about nothing thrilling. I guess it was better than, hey look, 100, ummm, i'll be done now.

So YEAH. 101. I'll be done now. Nah, I have completed 19 list items so far. At least 10 of the things on my list can't be crossed off until I have finished the 1001 days. I think for just over a third of the time down I'm doing ok. Not great, but not exactly terribly either. I'm on break now until march so I have the MOST time to do whatever I want. List related or otherwise. And I'm housesitting for most of december which means more time for me to do whatever I darn well please ( read: sleep and eat. Possibly read a book ).

I will need help with a couple of my list items, whether moral support or the likes. Possibly a shove to get me to do the less desirable ones like vegetarian for a month. Volunteers are most welcome :D Ooh, if you know anyone getting married, LET ME COME. promise not to bitch too much about how they're ruining their lives and how hideous the bridesmaids dresses are.

MuchLove.

my plans are brilliant

I'm in Tamworth. The bustling 'city' ahem town, where my father grew up and my grandparents have decided to move back to. Whom I decided to visit. Coz I'm the most awesome grand-daughter. It's true, the other one is a bit of a brat. She can't help it though, she's only 4. Anyhoo, I'm sleeping in the king sized bed which was in my house for a while and it is freaking heaven.

Which is my lame segue into telling you about how I'm going to London. Haha. No, I really did want to tell you about the heavenly realm that is sleeping in this monstrosity of a bed. But I also wanted to tell you about how originally I was going to save 3000$ for 63). and then use that money to cross off 101). by buying a king sized bed. Because they are too school for cool. And then I read a blog about an exhibition in the British Museum on the book of the dead which for the uninformed is an ancient Egyptian religious artefact that contains spells and other rituals to do with how they dealt with death, burial and the after life. http://morbidanatomy.blogspot.com/2010/10/journey-through-afterlife-ancient.html read about it there. So, I was all "ZOMG, ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY, PUT YOUR SHOES ON, LETS GO!". Then I remembered the British Museum is in London, which requires more effort than shoes. After much debating and changing of plans and travel partners, I am going to London with my grandmother in February. COOL. Which also means I need to save more than 3000$. I already have 2000$ because I work and get paid much more than what you'd expect. So yeah, thats my badass plan of the moment.

When I get back to civilisation I promise to blog about my dreams, the movies I've been ignoring and the books I've been reading.

MuchLove.

The Marvellous Miss A

I have this lovely friend who has been mad helpful with crossing things off my list. I'm not sure if she is aware but thanks to her, in the last month alone, I can cross one off and reduce another to 2/5.

Firstly, she turned 19. I couldn't make it to her birthday gathering party thing because of work so I made her a ridiculous cake 2 days later, for 47). but mostly for the fact that she deserves fancy cake. T and I made cookie monster :) He started to melt though, the fucker. The top pic is the one we made, the one underneath is what he was meant to look like. I say A+ for effort.

I thought 58). Sell a piece of jewellery I have made would include making a huge amount and then having a stall at some market, most likely losing money in the process. But it was A's Mum's birthday and I made some earrings and A paid me altogether too much for them. So yes, crossing it off :) I'm still going with the stall thing though, I have 4 months off uni to sit and make stuff and plan. It'll be sweet.

So thanky my lovely friend, A.

MuchLove.

life's no fun without a good scare

haha, yeah, so frantic blogging time is actually code for get distracted, go to L's and watch movies to celebrate his birthday... woops. Twas fun though. I'm most appreciative of A's amazing driving skills.

And now I have photos of me with no pants, looking quite albino. Actually no, first I have a pic of Zatanna to prove that she does actually exist and that I looked EXACTLY like her, bar the blondness. That and the fact that my shirt completed its purpose of covering my tits.

Our lovely posse, A as Little Dead Riding Hood, Myself as Zatanna, D as the family butcher, Lack of Letter'd friend as a pirate, L as an emo, or Pablo Trinity something-about-a-dragon.

A and I in D's backyard.

D's mum is adorable. She ran around the whole night, dancing the thriller dance for everyone, calling us party poopers and not letting A and I leave until we danced with her. She made the most amazing food too, I had the most adorable ghost cupcake, I felt guilty eating it. I played guitar hero for the first time ever! I'm somewhat crap at it, but it's the most fun. And then we went to L's place and played GTA and I drove a train through the sky because I'm just awesome that way. Neat. And now I get to cross off 17). Go to a halloween party dressed up.

MuchLove.
