Let It Roll.

So, here I am... Sitting in my last SOSE/Humanities EVERRRR!
It's all very exciting. :) No more of the i-hate-knitting-and-i-treat-everyone-like-a-five-year-old teacher.
Okay, so the moment has come, he said goodbye and left us with a sub. NO MOREEE!
*dances like crazy* or nooot, i'm in class and people may think i'm even more strange...


I did have science though, we played a trivia game that ended up being mostly about South America and the USA. We did get chocolate and lots of it. The lesson included my teacher dancing and pretending to be the score girl, he would have been fired if he gained income from it.
My science teachers lovely quote from when we were watching 'The Dish', "It's important to be brave, otherwise you'll never meet anyone." Why thank you, my favourite giant swedish man. You hold all the knowledge in the world.


My next two periods, Viscom and English could not have may for a better ending for the semester. I am not in the mood for German or maths...

Last day/very early in the morning I was reading some blogs, as usual when I came across a few website and other things that I like:

Oh Crap. My Parents Joined Facebook.

Andwabisabi.
It's an Etsy shop with the cutest cross sticking pieces.
It's a shame I just threw out my cross stiching material, I'm craving it now.
I think I'm going to buy some supplies tonight, or soon at least. :)

Tomorrow is going to be a very busy day! At 11am I have my ballroom dancing exam... I'm doing, Merilyn, Palma Waltz and Tangoette. Then Mother and I are planning to rush to Brinswick to go to the Retrostar sale, which is going to be sooooo busy. Otherwise I think we will end up chilling out on the streets... :D

After all that, I have to be at work at 3pm. It's all exciting...

I'm being forced into doing soooome work, damn you Byron! >_<

Emo Sucks, You Suck!

Today, I sat with a man named, Ron and watched people file for divorce, it was okay. Lots of really nice people came through the registers and they were all talkative. :) I got to go on a tour on the prison cells in the court and then the security guard took me to the roof and allowed me to go into the High Court. The tour was really interesting, there are so many secret doors. Now I'm a bit scared that when I lean on a wall it will fall open.


I had a nice long lunch, I walked at a quick pace down to Swanston street, and called Tahlia for some directions, THANK YOU, TAHLS! Anyway, I went to the Metropolis, hiked up all those stairs! I ended up buying a book. :O


Going into book stores always ends in me spending money, i try and limit myself, but nooooo. Plus I'm a complete sucker for books filled with notes. There is no resisting them. :) On the walk back a dragged myself into a few shops.


I found a cute, dirty but CUTE shop with all old cameras. I'm thinking about buying one... hmmm... The little asian lady inside was so kind and helpful. I may end up back there tomorrow. :) I sped back to the Court giving myself a headache because of the noise of my shoes. I do really like the noise heels make.


I went back to do some filing in the record part of the court, I was fairly boring... Then I ran around with one of the ladies getting mail and sorting it.


They let me go home early! How kind! But I did have to get back to Glen Waverley and go to work. Excitement...

Now I'm at home, bored! Tomorrow I will be hitting Degraves Street and Flinders Lane. Should be fairly good, I'm hoping. One thing, I love this magnetic necklace/bracelet/ring/anklet thing so much! I happened to notice while wearing it as a ring that staples get stuck to it. So it's not just a piece of jewellery, but I valued desk item... I keep seeing picture like this... I think it's a sign that I actually NEED a life...

The Art of Losing.

The second day of work experience... I got to the station earlier and caught that train. It was boringgg, but didn't really take too long. When I got off at Flagstaff I had to buy something to eat, not having breakfast in my tummy was making me feels sick, so what did I get? Vitamin water and mentos. :) But I only had one mentos... hehe.



Here's what I woreeee:

Yes, I looked like a fag, duhhh.
But, I did take the oppurtunity to wear my fish nets. ;D





I spent the morning in one court case and then it went on a break so I beeped myself through a billion different doors and got told to go to another court. It was all very thrilling... kind of.
At 1pm I had my lunch and walked out the back of the court down Williams Street. I stopped off a Novo, 50% off everything? I had to check it out. :)<>
I hit Bourke Street and walked down to find myself a sushi place. As soon as I was gone I ventured down to Elizabeth Street on a mission to find a gorgeous design shop. I found a shop called 'Rap' and it was full of cute jewellery and bags. (www.rapproducts.com.au)



I walked past a lot of camera shops so I decided to go in and see how much they sold star filters for... I love that I get 10% for being a student. I think dad should ust let me buy all the photography items for now on. But not with my money of course! :P



I slowly found my way back to Little Lonsdale Street and searched for this design place...

Of course I found it! Design Dispensary. I wanted this pretty magnetic necklace/ring/bracket/anklet thingy that I saw at the design market on Sunday.So, I bought it! In this dark coin gold colour. It's pretty and I love it. :) Cash well spent, kinda.

The lady even gave me a discount, she was so nice.

Go toooo, designdispensary.com.au



I spent the rest of the afternoon in a meeting with 'clients', yeahh fancy shit right there. :) That took forever! I was went to leave at 3.30 or earlier, but noooo I left the court at 5.30... ahhh, I don't even get paid for this job!



In other news, :O I'm sleepy.
And I love this sooooo much, it's cute!

Just Like You.

So, first day of my work experience was great! All the staff at the court are so nice! I get a little security tag to swipe when I walk through secure doors and go in the lifts. It's all very exciting. I wouldn't really call it work... I chill out in court rooms and listen to cases most of the time.

Here's what I wore:

I keep getting asked if I want to do law, "maybe...". Well, no actually I would prefer science or art.

On to the actually topic here, Horoscopes! In the June issue of either Dolly or Girlfriend I was told the following:
- Get off the internet and you will do well in your exams and school work.
- The boy that seems 'hard to crack' will 'crack' for you. It was something similar to that. (I can't find the mag to check.)
I am greatly disappointed!
No good marks, and no fantastic boy!
Alright, well I didn't really get off the internet, but still! Where's my man!?

I think I'll settle for noodle boxes, coke, indie music and just blogging.

Blogging is my boyfriend, Chyeahhh.

I just finished reading, 'King Dork'. It really wasn't that great...
I don't know what everyone was on about.
I probably should, shouldn't I?
I miss reading like a crazy person!

Your Skin Looks Good On Me.

I had a fantastic day!
First off my bestest friend, Millie had a birthday breakfast. We sat at the dining table and were civilised, at least for a little bit. Having lollies and marshmallows in wine glasses soon led to food fights. The lolly throwing continued until all were thrown and then we vacuumed them up while laughing hysterically. We went to the park and re-lived our childhood on the swing. Renee proceeded to fall of the swings... needless to say most of us were on the ground laughing. We went back into the house and watched Disturbia. Shia LeBeouf is damn fine and I hate the girl in the movie for getting to kiss him!

Millie and I then went to the Melbourne Design Market at Fed Square. All the stalls were so amazing! We both bought a lot of badges.And I also bought a cute cup for my tea in the morning, it's called a 'keep cup'. The idea is to use it when you get coffee from anywhere instead of using cardboard ones that the shop gives you.
(bad quality phone pictures.)
Another thing, my new ring! I love it so much, it's a knitting needle yettt a ring. "WOW!", you say. That's what I said too. Go to ok-ok.com.au they stock the designers items. It's comfy and gorgeous. I will probably wear it out soon.
After the market Millie and I decided to go to good olde Nandos for some extemely large chips. We sat outside the church near Flinder Street station and after a while we were attacked by seagulls. I think we got a few weird looks with me yelling, 'Millie! I hate birds! ARGH! Let's go go gooo!' Not soon enough did we head off to Flinders and bought some...
And other lollies of course! Then we headed home.

In other news, my work experience begins tomorrow! I'm heading to the Family Court right near Flagstaff stations. I'm only working 9.30 until 3.30, so there will be lots of shopping time. :)
I'm hoping to go to the John Brack exibition sometime soon... If I get the chance I'll go this week.


I also look like a gothic fairy in my work expierence clothes... I might take a picture for you.

xo.
