thanky kate :)

I can cross a bunch of stuff off my list just because I have this awesome friend named Kate. We go on adventures and have crafternoons because we are the coolest :P But she's running away soon for 7 months and I'm going to miss her so freaking much so we have to jam-pack our adventures over the next couple of months so I get my Kate fix. I'm not making sense. LIST STUFF:

She got me a postsecret book for my birthday :) it's beautiful. So, 98). Own a postsecret or street art/graffiti book can be crossed off.

The last adventure we went on took us to st. ives for the night markets ( so another market crossed off for 25). ) which were cute. There were giant blow up ball things with children inside, floating on a pool thing which looked fun but not appropriate for dress wearing people such as ourselves. We saw Thelma and a kind of shitty band and loads of christmas stuff. Then we ran away to the beach and saw a ridiculous amount of people kite surfing ( which we didn't know the name of at the time ). After walking for forever we got to an ocean pool thing and decided that even though we brought swimmers and left them in the car we couldn't not go swimming so jumped in in our underwear. Meaning I can cross off another swimming sesh for 26). :) Jussaying, you don't realise how far you've walked along a beach until you have to walk back. The walk back is a bitch. But thai food and lads being arrested off a bus made things better :P

Speaking of swimming, I may have had a repeat adventure of the ocean pool thing variety last night. I say it counts because I was fully in the water, but I didn't stay there long. It was really fucking cold. And it sobered me up almost instantly. It was a really awesome bunch of people I was with though. I do love that crowd. And I freaking love the beach. I need to go more often.

WUP WUP WUP. Nick says I can cross off 15). because we had a horror movie marathon in the form of the Resident Evil movies. They were kind of stupid. I want to watch more zombie movies. I figured one universe wasn't enough to count as a horror movie marathon but whatevs. I like crossing shit off :)

MuchLove.

Internetics Anonymous?

I havn't been able to write because we used up all the downloads. When you dont have something, you realise how much you love it. The internet is my addiction I do believe. We have a love/hate relationship. I love it to bits but if it crashes I hate it for being mean. Note to self: stop starting each blog with an excuse, it's pathetic.

So... progress report:

I went swimming again. There was a gathering at L's friend's house. It was ridiculously funny because sober me got to laugh at drunk friends. There were three girls there and all three of us were named Emily. I found this odd and therefore I am sharing. Maybe I'm just being silly. Anyway, this guy's pool is beyond amazing. The water was warm and it was dark this time so I didn't get sunburnt. And there was enough of us in the pool for it to be fun, what with the splashing and waterguns and pool toy things. So 2 down for 26).

After meeting with Grandma for a celebrational 'You survived the HSC' morning tea ( vanilla tea is amazing ) I managed to get myself from the Queen Victoria building to Mother's work without clear instructions, a map or an all-knowing friend. I think 48). won't be too hard. I'll just have to go more often and wander and familiarise myself with buildings and statues and what-not.

I had a painting day and it was most fun. It was all for a competition which I did not get to enter because of the broken internet. So now my designs for the top of a laptop are just pretty desktop pics. The actual painting was fun, the wrestling with harry ( my laptop ) to just be nice and the intense desire to throw him out a window then jump out after him was not so fun. There's no more space and it's rather frustrating. I think I'll put the desktop pics/top of laptop designs here :)

I got my hair cut! I now have barely shoulder length, layered, choppy hair with a madd fringe that's kind of parted but not really and hangs sort of over one eye. I'll put a pic in the next blog. how bout that? I'll find a before pic too, because I stupidly forgot to take one. There's alot of photos from graduation and what-not where i basically had the same hair minus the green blue bit. And I still have the green blue bit so there you go. I should recolour them though. I'm just rambling again. meh.

Because of the deadness of the internet I have been playing pokemon yellow. It's amazing still. I have a bicycle now so everything is faster, so yay for me! Once I cross off 89). I predict a hollow feeling will occur becuase as much as it will be amazing that I've finished it I'll still be a bit oh, it's over, now what? red, blue, gold, all the other ones!! YEAH. No. Not going to happen.

On a happy note: I got into UWS so I'll be completing a Bachelor of Design (Visual Communication) for the next few years. In Penrith. Which means a long complicated train trip with changes and probably walking and waking up early. I need to move to Penrith.

muchlove.

learning from mistakes

I've learn alot these last couple of days, a) things like getting a passport are a lot more expensive than you'd expect, or maybe just what I'd expect. Either way, passports are expensive!! b) I realised that I'm going to spend all my available money on this list. c) 1001 days seems like a really long time, but really it's not.

ok, in consecutive order, otherwise I'll lose track:

I learnt that in Centennial Park there are night time movies all the time. So I can complete 3). whenever there's a good movie on, it's good weather, and I can gather some friends together.
http://www.moonlight.com.au/docs/ProgramSydney.pdf = list of movies and dates for the near future.

Munchkin is going to a horror movie marathon at his girlfriend's house with some friends. I am so keen on crashing it. I would scare his friends though. No one is really used to me laughing at blood and guts and murder. But somehow I'll complete 15). without crashing my brother's fun. Unless I get desperate towards the end... XP

I went swimming! It was amazing. I went on a day trip to Bondi with C, R and N. It was mad fun. For a while there, in the water, we were the furthest out and the waves were barely there and it was perfect. The water was freezing though. And despite multiple layers of sunscreen I managed to get get badly burnt on my face and back. So yay for one down for 26).

While we were in Bondi I wanted to complete one of 32). but it just didn't work out that way. I wrote the letter and everything. I'm planning to go to the library tomorrow so I can borrow some of the books Rach recommended and slip in the letter. If I can find Stargirl it'll be in that book. Otherwise, Omega. I think if I go with my 5 favourite books I'll connect with someone like-minded, which would be cool.

I learnt that I named 38). wrong. I feel really stupid about it actually. The seven degrees of separation theory is actually called the six degrees of separation theory. It's all based on social networking and how 'small' the world is these days; how between you and anyone in the world there is 6 people.

I think I've picked my actor for 65). I just watched The Hangover and realised how much I love Bradley Cooper. I could happily watch him in multiple movies. The funny thing is I think mother dearest would be more than happy to watch with me =]

On a completly unrelated note: Appreciate what you have. Two people close to me are in the middle of life-changing events and those are just the ones I know about. So, appreciate the people and things in your life because you never know how or when it could change.

muchlove.
