Go check this out! It's so crazy! I love it =D

Emily is a whinger
I'm a very naive person in a lot of ways. For example, I never knew the extent of devastation I could feel about taking the decisive action that I feel is the right one. I believed that if you do the right thing, then your pain will be minimal.
I never knew that I could cry every day for a week and a half straight and still not feel better. I just believed that one cry every three months could sustain you. Crying is the worst thing anyway.
I also had no idea that there are no lines, just a big mish-mash of grey space that you can't discern between being right and wrong. There's no black and white, just different actions you can take that lead to a different outcome.
I had no idea how not-independent I am.
I didn't know that different situations affect the extent to which the choices you make matter.
I also had no idea how freaking long my brother can pee for. He's been going for like half an hour.
Sorry for that mental picture.

Go High School Musical
I love this movie:
I'm having one of those 'oh' days. Where you feel a little bit detached and the only reaction to anything is 'oh'. Oh, I spilt coffee all over my shirt. Oh, I hung up on the head honcho of NAB. Oh, I forgot my lunch. Oh, I feel sad. Oh, it's already the 10th of December. Oh, dance. Oh, the newspapers and the water and the new biscuits. Oh, I cut my finger. Oh, I have a bruise.
Oh, I don't know.

Your rainbow is shaded green.
What is says about you: You are an intelligent person. You feel strong ties to nature and your mood changes with its cycles. Those around you admire your fresh outlook and vitality.

I'm kind of sad that my rainbow is so drab looking. At least it's green - I like green.
What an eventful week it has been. I'm overwhelmed! Perhaps in dot point form, I will share the important points:
* I completed my first full week of fulltime work. Insane I say. Insane! I researched carbon trading, filed like a maniac, opened letters like nobody's business and got my very own work email address. I'm a real office wench now!
* The Salty Celebration occurred - it was a fantastic night of fabulousness. The decorations were daggy, the costumes were daggier, the music was awesome, the people were cool and there was lots of food.
* I finished teaching the girls the all-time awesome dance, Bring It All Back. They're performing at Jump which is exciting, because it's going to be amazing. I love the look of super energy dancing, it takes the music to its full potential.
* I finished tutoring for the year! And I got a MASSIVE box bucket of M&Ms. It's awesome.
* CHRIS AND KLARA NOW HAVE THE SAME LAST NAME! It was such a beautiful wedding. I think they should do it again =P What an attractive married couple. Oh it was so beautiful! Everyone had pretty hair and pretty dresses and pretty shoes and pretty flowers and pretty photos and great food and pretty everything! (Hey Klara, if you read this, I had a little squeal party when i was tagging my photos on facebook and your name came up as Klara Donovan. Awesome)
* Real friends are the greatest things going.
Okay stuff everything else I was going to type. I just found the world's greatest blog.
Here is an example, it's not the best one but the shirt made me laugh:
Go here for more fun! The best part is the name: failblog.
here is an example: type how many children you have given birth to. again, a rough estimate is fine.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA, best entertainment of my life

En Francais?
I had my first French lesson with Flo tonight, and it was the best thing ever. I've discovered I'm much better at speaking French whilst driving in my car with noone listening than when there are people around and I have to talk about something. But it was so exciting! She's going to teach me how to speak about music and politics and other great things in another language so I can sound smart. It's quite depressing that, (oh modesty) I'm smart in English but in French I just sound like an idiot.
And so, to fill in the time before bedtime...
FACT: About the person you fell hardest for?
I'm too awesome to fall for someone.
WHAT: Happened at 9:00 am today ?

WHAT:Is the last thing someone bought you?
I don't know hey. Breakfast?
WHAT'S: Your current problem?
A serious lack of time and sleep. And therefore I'll probably get wrinkles early and then everyone will hate me because I'll look old and ugly and then I'll die.

I don't say anything, I just grind my teeth menacingly.
DO YOU: Delete people off of myspace?
No I rarely log on to myspace. Except to steal these things.

Hahaha I had an angry cry at life. Then I got over it. I can't believe I admitted that.
ARE YOU: Ticklish?
*sigh*
WHO WAS: The last person you talked to last night before bed?

Haha the last person I kissed was one of the French people on the cheek. I don't even remember their name so I sure don't tell them I love them!
How do you know the last person you were in a car with?
I was in a car with myself. And before that... I was in a car with my Uncle! I know him because he is my uncle.

What is your best friend's favorite food?
They all have different ones.
Who' s the funniest person you know?
Oh wow. I can't even pick.
Do you have your eye on anyone?
My eyes are on you.
Are you happy with your life at the moment?
Yeah, it's busy and exhausting, and ina lot of ways unrewarding, but at the same time it's exciting and different and hopefully things will keep changing.
What is something you disliked about your day?
The fact I sat around with nothing to do, I have no computer at work and the internet on the only free one was dead so noone gave me anything to do.

I had a weird sleep last night - it was like I was asleep and awake simultaneously it was so strange. So kind of but not really if you know what I mean.
When did you last talk to your number one?

I was thinking today about how odd the concept of manure is. I had to file all the manure receipts (so far there are two thousand of them for this year. Or two hundred. I forget) and I'm absolutely perplexed as to how that happened. Seriously. Who wants manure? Who thought 'hey, cows poo a lot, lets sell their poo as well as them!' Weird.
In other news, I bought an awesome $40 dress to wear out to exciting upcoming functions which are... well, coming up. And it is the weekend as of right now! Yay! There's a big girls night out tonight, but I'm way to knackered. So I'm staying home and having dinner with my deaf granddad who can't speak English well. It's a good tradeoff I think. You know what else is a good tradeoff? Chinese takeaway.
I should stop wasting precious (hmm...probs the wrong word) (I've started saying probs) (And maybs) (How embarrassing is that? Where do I get such a terrible vocabulary from? My stupid brain obviously. Whatev) ...what was I saying? Oh yeah, internet space, on such ridiculous ramblings.
Ce weekend, je vais aller a Rottnest, et a la pique nique pour le Moo. Aussi,aujord'hui j'ai achete un cadeau pour moi, pour mon frere et pour mon 'christmas cringle', dit Flo. Yay!

Noises.
I'm always worried I don't have a story. I love people, and I love talking, and I love telling stories. But no matter what, I'm still afraid that people iwll hate my stories and that I'm lame and boring and really just an invisible bland person with nothing to say. I still tell stories because it's more likely people will think that of me if I say nothing. But what if my stories are really bad???
Well, I have lots of stories for you friends. They're al terrible Emily stories, but they're still stories.
Salty Weekend was a real experience. But that's a story not for the internet.
Perhaps I'll tell you a story about office sounds. The sounds of our office are a bit like this:
RINGRINGRINGRINGRINGrunrunrun'WellardGroupReneeSpeaking' Emily can you open the mail Emily can you file this for me? Ringring ring ring*coffee machine whirrs really freaking loudly* ring ring ring Run this down to livestock Print me five labels and eight envelopes and photocopy this six times Ring ring ring ring run this down to livestock can you get this delivered to Perth in the next five minutes it's really important Emily I have more filing for you Emily are you busy can you go get the mail Ring ring ring ring ring Renee where's my coffee ring ring ring *printer and computer breaks down* Renee you bound these in the wrong order we hate you ring ring ring ring ring *office gossip oh no way she did not he did not oh drama drama office gossip whisper whisper* ring ring ring ring ring ring RENEE YOU LEFT THE CORDLESS IN MY OFFICE Emily I have more filing?
The end. There's more but I forget them. Lots of them include really heavy footsteps that the men have. Men walk really loudly I have noticed.
These are the sounds of Moo:
Can I have a mini moo no a maxi moo umm maybe i'll get a small is that a small tub? oh yeah the takeaway oh no the cup thing yeah can i get a spoon? i can try mango? And passionfruit? And cherry? And Mixed Berry? Oh look I'll take a mini of the cappuccino do you want the thirty cents? yeah sure if you have it Oh so is this yoghurt? yes it is yoghurt does it have milk in it? no it's milkfree ARE YOU STUPID OF COURSE IT HAS MILK IN IT *whooooosh* as the till opens yoghurt squelches on the floor wash dishes AHH THE WATER JUST BURNT AWAY ALL OF MY SKIN crash when Emily drops all the spoons on the floor Ah well more bacteria won't hurt them Excuse me can I have some honeycombe with my frozen yoghurt? Can I have more berries/ Add some extra crunch please, less yoghurt.
Customers are so smart. I'm in awe of their awesome minds.
Here is something I learnt today. There are too many people to try keep happy, but I keep trying to keep them all happy anyway! Emily is a fool.
I miss social interaction.

Thursdays after four o'clock
Yes, I know today is Wednesday. But I was contemplating tomorrow. I have always felt a bit weird about Thursdays. They try to make it sound good, by including things like late night shopping, and tomorrow is Friday, the start of the weekend! But really, Thursdays are a bit of a crap day.
At school, they meant double politics and double chemistry. At uni, they've meant the day from tutorial hell. At work they mean you have to deal with grumpy customers and stupid school kids who want tastings. Tomorrow, it means two exams.
TWO EXAMS! But then, the positive thing is, after 4:10 - no more exams! I will be finished! I can do fun things like pack for Salty weekend, and sleep without dislocating my jaw. I can throw away all my full notebooks with notes from this semester, and put all my books in my cupboard and never look at them again! I love Thursday after four o'clock.

I have so much i want to say that I can't even articulate it. So I'm doing a stupid quiz instead.
Think of the person you'd like to be with the most right now, when did you last talk to them?
I'd like to be with any person right now. Studying all day is lonely business. And I haven't had verbal contact with anyone since yesterday. Lame!
When's the last time you did something you knew was wrong?
Um... right now? It's wrong for me to be wasting time when I have two exams on Thursday? Whatev!
Last three texts in your phone are from:
Kat, Stefan, Mum.
What are you doing right now?
Uh, this thing! And trying to find some good songs for dance next year, and I've not done too badly! I refuse to choreograph contemporary, which limits things, but it's surprising what's out there.
You can only drink ONE liquid for the rest of your life, what is it?
Coffee. Macchiatos to be precise.
Is there something that reminds you of someone every time you see / hear it?
Lots of songs I hear remind me of certain people/times.
Do you trust all of your friends?
Nah, I don't tell lots of people stuff. It's not that I dont think they could be trustworthy, but no point tempting fate!
Do you think you can last in a relationship for three months?
Hahah I suppose. Three months! What a lifetime! =P
Have you ever had a best friend who was of the opposite sex?
Sure do! Changes your perspective in some ways.
Have you ever been nice to someone who treated you like crap?
Of course, it's a lot of effort if you both treat each other like crap.
Are you anything like you were at this point last year?
In some ways, changed a lot in others.
Have you lost contact with someone you wish you didn't?
Yeah I have. But you know, everything goes through phases and things seem to end up how they should be. I'll be in touch with them soon =D
Do you judge people you don't know?
Hahah I'm so bad with this one. You're not really supposed to. But like... it's pretty hard not to help it. For example, if I am in Freo late at night, I usually label a lot of people 'skanks'. Or 'manwhores'. Or if I see an old couple at the shops, I think 'aw lovely'. Who knows, they could've been drug dealers when they were younger.
When was the last time you felt like your heart was actually breaking?
I don't go in for mega emotion. Nah just kidding =D Um, I don't know. I actually don't think I've felt that one to be honest. Thank goodness for that!
What is one thing you feel that you NEED in life?
Thumbs.
In the past week have you cried?
I had a teary moment =P I'm in the middle of exam stress, that's my excuse! Everything gets on your nerves at this time. My poor family.
Dark hair or light hair on the opposite sex?
Doesn't bother me really, as long as it's not like, purple or something.
Who are your favorite people to talk to when you’re down?

Whats the last thing in your house you broke?
The microwave. I fixed it but! Oh and the shower. That's such a pain.

Doing anything tonight?
French/Linguistics study, sleep. Coloured pens.
Ever been so anxious or overwhelmed that it felt like you couldn't breathe?
Hm... not really. My stress manifests itself through clenched teeth. I end up with my teeth practically welded together, it's pretty lame. Makes it way more difficult to eat.
What do you think it would be like if you had a twin?
It'd be awesome =D We need more rangas in the world, I hear we're a dying breed =[
Do you know anyone else's password to their xanga, email, myspace, etc?
No. Why would I need to know that?
Do you have a box where you keep all your really important things, like notes?

Are you frustrated with a female?
Sure.
Are you frustrated with a male?
Sure.
Honestly, do you like anyone?
Honestly, I like everyone.
Last night you felt?
Exhausted.
Do you like to text?
Why not, it's fun to send out weird messags to people. Keeps me occupied whilst at work.
Do you like to talk on the phone?
ahhhhhh depends on who to, it can make me feel really awkward but. I hate thinking other people are listening.
What was the last drink you had?
Milo.
When was the last time you were truly, completely happy with your life?
Last week.
Have you read a whole book in a day?
Sure thing - yay Harry Potter.
How old will you turn in 2009?
19. Weird! I keep thinking I'm still fifteen.
When was the last time you talked to number 1 on your top friends?
Sunday.
What were you doing at 4am this morning?
Sleeping with the happy thought of no more looming politics exams.
Whats your relationship with the person you last texted?
She's my faux big sister.
What did you do today?
Studied. Ate. Studied. Read. Studied. Did internet things.
Where are your siblings?
He's at school. Probably farting.
When is the last time you really cried?
Oh aaaages ago.
Did the one person who hurt you the most in your life apologize?
Don't know who that'd be!
Do you still talk to the person you fell hardest/fastest for?
Yar.

Um... my other bed.
What were your first thoughts this morning?
AHHHHHHHHHHH.

Unfortunately yes, but I'm working on it.

NEVER
Is your phone close to you?
Next to me. I'm hoping for distractions.
Are you keeping a secret from someone who needs to know the truth?
Yeah, but like. Boring.
Have you ever hated someone and ended up being friends with them?
Haha I don't tend to hate people, but people change and you end up being friends with people you wouldn't think you would be.
What is the last thing you spent money on?
Dance lesson.
Do you get along with girls?
Yes yes of course.
Think of the person you'd like to be with the most right now, when did you last talk to them?
I'd like to be with any person right now. Studying all day is lonely business. And I haven't had verbal contact with anyone since yesterday. Lame!
When's the last time you did something you knew was wrong?
Um... right now? It's wrong for me to be wasting time when I have two exams on Thursday? Whatev!
Last three texts in your phone are from:
Kat, Stefan, Mum.
What are you doing right now?
Uh, this thing! And trying to find some good songs for dance next year, and I've not done too badly! I refuse to choreograph contemporary, which limits things, but it's surprising what's out there.
You can only drink ONE liquid for the rest of your life, what is it?
Coffee. Macchiatos to be precise.
Is there something that reminds you of someone every time you see / hear it?
Lots of songs I hear remind me of certain people/times.
Do you trust all of your friends?
Nah, I don't tell lots of people stuff. It's not that I dont think they could be trustworthy, but no point tempting fate!
Do you think you can last in a relationship for three months?
Hahah I suppose. Three months! What a lifetime! =P
Have you ever had a best friend who was of the opposite sex?
Sure do! Changes your perspective in some ways.

Of course, it's a lot of effort if you both treat each other like crap.
Are you anything like you were at this point last year?
In some ways, changed a lot in others.
Have you lost contact with someone you wish you didn't?
Yeah I have. But you know, everything goes through phases and things seem to end up how they should be. I'll be in touch with them soon =D
Do you judge people you don't know?
Hahah I'm so bad with this one. You're not really supposed to. But like... it's pretty hard not to help it. For example, if I am in Freo late at night, I usually label a lot of people 'skanks'. Or 'manwhores'. Or if I see an old couple at the shops, I think 'aw lovely'. Who knows, they could've been drug dealers when they were younger.
When was the last time you felt like your heart was actually breaking?
I don't go in for mega emotion. Nah just kidding =D Um, I don't know. I actually don't think I've felt that one to be honest. Thank goodness for that!
What is one thing you feel that you NEED in life?
Thumbs.
In the past week have you cried?
I had a teary moment =P I'm in the middle of exam stress, that's my excuse! Everything gets on your nerves at this time. My poor family.
Dark hair or light hair on the opposite sex?
Doesn't bother me really, as long as it's not like, purple or something.
Who are your favorite people to talk to when you’re down?
I dunno! there's a few people out there who clear things up for me.

How To Procrastinate:
Step 1. Have a fabulous book that is completely unrelated to what you should be studying. I, for example, am reading Harry Potter (the entire series for perhaps the one hundredth time), and I have heard the Twilight series to be just as effective. Hot vampires are a fabulous distraction. Read it when you should be studying. Read it when you should be sleeping. Then sleep when you should be studying.
Step 2. Fix notes instead of reading them. This is a highly effective method, as it makes you feel like you're being productive, but really you're just doing some copy and paste, a bit of rearranging, some fixing of typos and really just wasting time. Don't forget to change font colour, add some margins and borders and maybe try out some different word-art titles.
Step 3. Watch movies. Movies are fabulous as a 'reward' for studying. Also as a timer - I will start studying when this movie finishes. When it does, put another movie in. You meant the movie after the first movie anyway.
Step 4. Socialize. Make sure on the weekend before your exam, you have plenty of plans. Like going out for lunch. And dinner. And a drive. Every night.
Step 5. Have the internet, with Facebook, Myspace, MSN and a blog. All open at the same time. You're on the computer! It has to be productive!
Step 6. Write To-Do lists. Add things you've already done and cross them off. Make sure you write 'Write a to-do list' as number one on your list. Once you've done task one, you can take a break. Handy.
Step 7. Think of the other insignificant projects you are meant to have done. Like cleaning out your old notes. Or reordering your jewelry. Taking some photos. Painting your toenails. Oh, and finding that old note you wrote to remind you about something that you forgot. That's way more important than study.
Step 8. Write a blog post on how to procrastinate. At 11:30pm at night, when you were going to go to bed early to get up early to study the next morning. Yup. Fail.

I Love:
* Kikki-K being in Perth
* Stain free deodorant
* Not studying for politics
* Reading Harry Potter for the millionth time
* Procrastinating
* Writing stupid blog posts
* Taking photos
* Decorating my room
* Making huge plans for the summer that I know I won't see through
* New diaries
* Tea
* Being healthy and distracted
* Knowing it is less than a week till a study-free lifestyle for a few months
* Getting a cardigan thing for only five cents - hooray bargains
* Brushing my teeth
* Planning things to buy
* Plans in general
* Avoiding plans
* Mario Kart
And... now I really need to learn about bipolar v multipolar systems or I'll die.

Poetry
The thing I miss most about school is being forced to read outside my comfort zone.
I know a lot of people are big on reading 'Christian books', which I do think is important. However, I find them often limited, repetitive, not entirely well-written and either trying too hard to be cool and awesome, or completely inaccessible. Of course I haven't read every 'Christian book', and there are, as always, a few exceptions. But there are just so many amazing texts out there that when you're at uni, you miss out on hearing about unless you're doing English.
My favourite text we studied was T.S. Eliot's poetry. It was just beautiful in a really scary kind of way.
From The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock
Do I dare
Disturb the universe?
In a minute there is time
For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.
For I have known them all already, known them all:—
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.
So how should I presume?
...
And would it have been worth it, after all,
Would it have been worth while,
After the sunsets and the dooryards and the sprinkled streets,
After the novels, after the teacups, after the skirts that trail along the floor—
And this, and so much more?—
And from Preludes:
His soul stretched tight across the skies
That fade behind a city block,
Or trampled by insistent feet
At four and five and six o'clock;
And short square fingers stuffing pipes,
And evening newspapers, and eyes
Assured of certain certainties,
The conscience of a blackened street
Impatient to assume the world.
How beautiful is that? I lost my Eliot anthology, which is a bit of a shame because I wanted to read some of his post-conversion poetry. Anyway, it just reminds me constantly to stop being lame and filling my head with crap. Of course, Harry Potter doesn't count as crap.

emily is being lame today
Sometimes life just does things you don't expect it to, and even weirder, sometimes you do things you didn't expect to.
Perhaps an example would work here; whilst I stuff up many things, and make more mistakes than is humanly possible to comprehend, I don't screw up exams. I don't screw up my timing, I get everything down, I feel confident with how I do, no matter what I say, and I never doubt my ability to do well in an exam situation. But today, everything felt off. I hadn't fully prepared, I was a bit iffy on a few areas of law, I was nervous, overtired and a little down. And I went in, screwed up the timing, spent forty five minutes on a ten mark question and left myself thirty minutes for a twenty five mark question. I could not comprehend how that happens. I never get my timing off in an exam. I never have to rush through questions. I ended up doing something I didn't expect to, and as I result I'm overly confused.
This weekend has been full of these strange experiences where I don't understand what has happened, and completely didn't expect any of it. I've felt all these emotions that don't regularly crop up in my life, and if they do, I am good at putting them aside and pushing through. Things like anxiety and sadness, stress and confusion, uncertainty and loss. I feel like an emo kid, those people who are always sad about something, and that frustrates me more cos I can't stand that type of life. But this will pass of course.
There are a few things that are beyond me; how to deal with certain things, how to not expect much but give lots, how to expect a lot but appreciate when it doesn't turn out, how to stay focussed and not burn out, how to know for certain something is right. These are just some examples, I could say so much more. I wish I knew how to say the right thing, or be the strong person who could understand and lift people up from how they're feeling and what they're doing. Maybe one day it will all come to me, I always hope that as I get older I'll get wiser and more able to understand and be compassionate. Hopefully it's coming, cos I'm not doing too well on that front right now.
I have learnt some things though; be patient. Don't be upset if you fail, keep trying. Keep rational thoughts close at hand. Keep people you love close at hand. Do your all to make sure they're happy. Do what you say you will do. Be willing to change and adapt, and not be the best. And most of all, love properly, because otherwise there is nothing left.

life is exciting!
My posts are always the same, but I don't care - life is usually exciting!
Reasons why (this time):
1. It's Friday. Friday has so much potential for great days ahead!
2. Obama is the new President! I still want to type 'our' new President, but unfortunately no - however he did mention us in his speech, the forgotten corners of the earth. What a great man.
3. Kat and Andrew are engaged! In case you've been living under a rock.
4. Two weeks and exams are over!
5. Ali's house is nearly finished - I'll miss having a friend to play Boggle with at 11 at night, but it'll be nice to see new floors in their house.
6. Work doesn't suck so bad!
7. Plans to do things and go places are coming to fruition.... or getting to the stage where I can make them come to fruition!
8. There is a new Dome in Fremantle and I love it.
9. I've nearly finished choreographing the younger girls' dance, which is awesome if I do say so myself. Shame we don't have enough time to teach it all. Oh well!
10. Day Light Saving is awesome.

a good weekend
* Day One of work was very successful! I met new people, found out that filing just involves putting most things under 'W' and discovered that Friday is 'free dress day' so there was no need to invest in my lovely new office clothes. Oh well.
* Boggle Time at night involved some hardkore action against Mum and Ali. I am proud to say I have not lost my touch, and was the overall winner! That was exciting. It was also nice to have a non-stressful night at home, of chocolate and good word games.
* Productive Saturday meant I finished my assignments(!!), went for a bike ride, finished Harry Potter, relaxed and saw Burn After Reading. Can't say it was my favourite movie, it was quite (incredibly) weird. I'll tell you about it. It meant nothing. There was a gym, some love stories, a bit of internet dating, lots of killing, a spastic weirdo who was writing his memoirs, lots of infidelity and the CIA. Brad Pitt was the highlight, and not just because he is very nice to look at, but his character made me want to give him a big hug.
* Infants! I have started helping mum with the infants as of this morning, and they are SO CUTE! I wanted to hug them all, Zara has the most beautiful disposition, Eve is the most curious baby I've ever seen and Leah had MASSIVE EYES. It was enjoyable playing with them too. I forgot how much fun piles of colourful toys can be.
* Dance Rehearsal Our Concert (!) is on Saturday, so we have been rehearsing hard. Our dance is finished and very nice, it even makes me feel a little worn out. I always like that. It means it's a real dance.
* Moo Picnic I also made some French friends today! It was a Moo picnic, and I actually knew Flo, Karaine and Nicole. Then Karaine left, and Nicole and her boyfriend went for a walk. So I decided to make friends with the French people. They were very lovely, and I could understand some of what they said. They tried to teach me this weird stick game, but I sucked, so we played dodgeball instead. It was lovely.
* Bad times Tutoring seemed to screw up my weekend for reasons I won't go into. I just hate pointless, hour-long round trips and people who aren't cooperative.
* MP3 Michelle brought us strawberries! Laura got time off!
* Church Yeah. It was churchy.
The end =]
