Happy happy happy

I just wanted to tell the world how ridiculously happy I am for the following reasons:

1. Lauren is home!
2. I have crossed off three things on my 'list of things to do before uni goes back'
3. Uni goes back next week!
4. Lauren is home!
5. Kat just may be my new yoghurt buddy!
6. *secret* but it still makes me happy!
7. I can play the first three pages of 'Dawn' and it doesn't sound bad!
8. Writing letters to Lizzii!
9. Finishing books!
10. Lauren is home!

And I am still sad Lindsay is living on the other side of the country. But I'm very happy she is going to be smart and a history nerd and have basically no contact hours so she can just shopa nd then tell me about all her bargains.

Lots of love her way

What Has Emily Been Doing With Her Life?

1. Yoghurt Selling. Yup. I've been selling yoghurt more than I thought was humanly possible AND I've discovered I quite enjoy chocolate frozen yoghurt. And mango smoothies. I make a mean mango smoothie. And I like getting paid too. That is nice.

2. Dancing. Not that much, but I am now officially a Sole to Soul leader with an orange(pink) shirt and everything! Now to actually remember how to dance.

3. Making Mei Goreng. I have this packet mix fun stuff like everyday. It is so freaking addictive.

4. Waiting Impatiently for Uni to Start. I would rather like to learn again. It's all well and good to earn money and be on holidays and do nothing, but I do like learning. 3rd of March!!

5. Colouring In. Kat bought me a Disney Princess Colouring In book. It is very good for keeping myself occupied. =]

6. Dance Dance Revolutioning. My new goal in life is to finish Spice Girls//Spice Up Your Life (or maybe it was Stop? One of them) on Pro so I can amaze Gary Low.

7. Eating Darrell Lea Chocolate. So ridiculously addicted to Dark chocolate coated red licorice bullets.

8. Spending too Much Money on Gloria Jeans Caramel Lattes. But I do get a discount as a result of Moo =] So that is exciting!

9. Trying To Expand My Music Taste. I've discovered I like everything except the Cat Empire. But I need influencing in what I listen to. Suggestions please?

10. Being Addicted to the Movie Beaches. I really do love that movie. It is so so so so sad.

11. Occasionally Cleaning. I cleaned up the Book room and it looks all lovely now. For a while I was inspired to clean my room and the games room, but it's kind of worn off. I still have to do it though. Eventually. Maybe tomorrow.

12. Putting off Joining the Gym. I'm so angry at myself, I just can't seem to force myself to go there and fill out forms. I think I'm a bit scared about getting a program and not sticking to it. Stupid hey?

13. Writing Letters. I really love letters.

14. Considering a Career Change and Going to the Bus Driving Open Day. Just kidding. No really. I'm kidding.

15. Playing the Piano. I bought the Pride & Prejudice music book and it is so lovely to try (really badly) to play it. I really need to practice more often.

And that's all really! It's all unexciting and uneventful for now.

washing directions

The biggest pile of crap you will ever read :

Gail Sorronda for Target evokes visions of summers past, present or future. Sheer fabrics and sequins transform under sunlight, and a playful use of tailoring is coupled with light masculine features for a grown up twist to feminine dressing

This was written on the Mambo tag for some boardies Jarrad bought:

To wash, Mambo recommends soaking this garment in a cosmic bucket two thirds full of mystic crystals (Australian Industry Standard). Soak for 45 minutes then rinse in a gently flowing stream. To dry, wring first in a 'yin' direction followed by a reverse 'yang' twist. Hang between 2 maypoles and dance around garment until dry. Dude... fold into basket. For best results, wash only when the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter is aligned with Mars

Now THAT's advice I intend to follow

Dinner time!

* Today I was moo-ed at as a result of my bright red shirt which says 'Moo'. It was really embarrassing. I had to try not to laugh.
* I have developed a beach addiction. I want to go pretty much all the time.
* I have also redeveloped my chocolate addiction. This is supremely bad as I keep putting off joining the gym because I don't want to part with all that money in one big go. Best things ever: Darrel Lea's dark chocolate coated red licorice bullets. *sigh of happiness*
* I just called the gym and spoke to Mr. I'm-A-Football-Player-Listen-To-My-Awful-Drawl
* There is still ANOTHER MONTH BEFORE UNI STARTS. I'M GOING INSANE! I NEED TO LEARN!
* I may be starting another job tutoring at Mich's mum's business, which is exciting! Less sticky, more brain power
* And I'm working at the by-election. So lots of cash for me.
* I have made yet another vow to keep my room clean and tidy and free from gross messiness.
* I've also redeveloped my love for writing letters. It is nice having lots of people around who I need to write letters to. I wrote about five the other night when I was babysitting. It was great. they were practically unreadable, which was the cause of my new note to self: improve handwriting
* My internet makes me angry as it likes to disconnect at lots of random and inconvenient times
* I've decided I'm going to start teaching myself a language. I don't know what yet, but I'm learning French at uni so I'll have to choose something else.
* Desperately waiting for my new piano music to come through from Lizziiiiiiiiiiiii at Zenith
* Kind of worried about this dance thing - I am concerned about the fact I haven't danced in...about a trillion years
* Needing a new book - and recommendations for said new book
* Also in need of a developed music taste. Mine is shamefully non-refined
* It feels really strange not being at school - lie I saw all these school kids coming into Garden City and I felt so lost and confused.
* The bank people know me by name. That is embarrassing.
* I'm refining my cooking skills of late. There wasn't many skills to start with, but they're gradually developing. It's kind of exciting.
* Salmon girl was the funniest thing I've ever seen
