Oh my goodness I've actually gone crazy.
It's been a really really crazy week! But a really happy one. And almost productive!
However.
I've started pondering stuff; I'm quite confused about where I sit. In particular: church.
Sometimes I wonder why it is we meet. I know I find when I get to church, I don't notice any particular goal to love God more. In fact, sometimes it makes me feel guilty about who I am, and what I like. I like ambition, motivation and dedication. And I like having them in my life. I don't think God would make me up that way to have to put it aside and question every single thing I do. And I'm pretty sure God doesn't want me feel guilty every second of every day.
But that's kind of how I feel when I go to church. Like no matter what I do, I'm a fake, and I feel guilty for not loving other people more, for being impatient, for not wanting to work in the church, for not helping out more in ministries. But I know if I did those last two now, my heart wouldn't be in it. I'd be bitter because I'd feel like I was being forced into it.
I guess what I'm saying is I feel like the focus is lost when I get to church. Like we slip into this discourse where we're not conversing with God, we're throwing these statements out there like 'give us ears to hear' that don't even mean anything. But they count because they sound good. It's almost like speaking Christian-ese, and it feels so fake! If only we were more genuine; I don't think I could love God in a gentle way, and to be honest sometimes I think I prefer to know he exists, and love him, but not let myself feel guilty all the time for not doing more.
I don't think I'm really explaining myself; I guess I think if I'm feeling like I'm only a real Christian if I do leadership, or take part in ministries run by the church or whatever, then really, I'm selling myself out. God still made me, and he wouldn't have given me the desire to succeed and to learn more, and work hard and all of those things if He didn't want me to use it.
Anyway, this was a ramble. Tell me if you think I'm totally off-base. All these thoughts get caught in my head and I never know where to go with them!!

Emily's Life As Facebook Status Updates:
Emily is embracing her inner nerd. [As a side note, you may be thinking 'well of course, she's always been a nerd. But I'd just like to point out, the happiest part of my last two weeks has been when I've been researching and writing my Torts essay. Yeah. I kid you not.]
Emily is enjoying her first day as a dole bludger!
Emily is scared for her evidence lecture, as her fingers are not sufficiently warmed up for 45 minutes of constant speedy typing.
Emily is as disgusted as always with the cheap Guild coffee.
Emily can't wait for the pancakes date this afternoon with fellow ranga Ali.
Emily is excitedly dreaming of being in Sydney and looking beautiful for Ben Folds.
Emily experimented with bobby pins and realized a fringe is definitely not for her.
Emily is procrastinating at uni.
Emily thinks getting Snap set up was a bad idea.
Emily wonders what VPN is and what it stands for? And why she has two?
Emily's phone is looking a bit sad.
Emily loves people watching in Hackett Cafe.
Emily loves spying on all the people playing solitaire on their laptops in lectures.
Emily should stop blogging and finish her essay.
Emily gets her moot question tomorrow! (See the first line for reaffirming the inner nerd.)

What I ponder while studying...
.: I feel a little like I'm spamming my own blog. Is that even possible? But whatever. I don't care.
.: Seeing the school girls for Lindsay's birthday last night (happy birthday Lindsay!) was supremely fantastic. ♥ to them
.: Eating Haribo gummi bears makes me 30x happier.
.: Choosing an area of law to focus your essay on that you haven't yet learnt about creates approximately 500x more work for yourself.
.: But defamation law is quite interesting, so it's worth it. Maybe.
.: Planning trips to Sydney is fun fun fun for everyone! I'm so excited!
.: I sing out loud a lot when I'm home on my own. That is quite embarrassing.
.: I'm still embarrassed the Shiseido girl told me I had bad skin, so I now drink a lot of water. Like a LOT. Yesterday at work I had like nine glasses of water, in case other people thought I also had bad skin.
.: I only like keeping other people's things nice and tidy. Tidying your own stuff is boring.
.: Signing up for mooting was a crazy yet excellent idea I think.
.: What should I wear to Amy's 21st tonight?
.: Highlighting is fun! Yellow highlighters are the best though. Orange highlighters are lame.
.: I often think about mundane things to hide myself from thinking about God related stuff. I think that is common, but it's sad it's common.
.: Planning to go to the Balinese orphanage is getting me super excited! Who's free early December? You should come too.
Mmm...that's all. I need to go write an essay now *sigh*

Vampire Photoshop
Oh wow am I addicted to this thing now. It is so much fun! Here's what I did just then...
I haven't seen Twilight the movie, but I read the book and I have the feeling I've captured the ridiculously pale/sparkling thing they get in the sun. Maybe I'm secretly a vampire. (By the way, for some lame reason the colour here is SO DULL compared to what comes up in photoshop, so no I am not completely talentless... well... maybe just partially! But you can see the colours properly if you click on the picture... but no pressure I'm just saying that I'm not really that bland looking!)
Tutorial for sparkles (aka star diffusion... I prefer sparkles!) here.
I feel a bit weird posting all these photos of myself, but I'd rather photoshop those because other people might be offended that I don't think they're pretty enough already! Besides, it's fun making myself have brown hair/no eyebrows (oh wait, I didn't have those in the first place...) :)
And just for fun, I won a $10 ref voucher (yeww the ref...only the lamest place ever) for coming first in the guild tipping competition at uni :) I am quite proud of myself, although it's pretty sad if the best effort is 6/8. It's going to be a good week!

That Facebook Thing
I decided I would fill it out, because otherwise I have to do my evidence homework and that's BORINGGGG
If you've been tagged or you are reading this, you have the honor of copying all these goofy questions, writing your own response, and tagging other victims. You have to tag me also. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your title as "Getting to know each other!", tag people including me (tagging is done in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.
1. What time did you get up this morning? Around 10:15...does it count as a sleepin if you didn't get to sleep until 3am?
2. How do you like your steak? With extra meat, and Nandos extra hot peri peri :):)
3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema? Harry Potter 6! The biggest diversion from the actual book ever!
4. What is your favorite TV show? How I Met Your Mother, So You Think You Can Dance (Australia AND US), Grey's Anatomy.... there's a long list. Damn TiVo.
5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? In the next few years? Somewhere in America. In life in general? Wherever I'm taken - Perth is lovely, but I'd like to appreciate it more by having lived somewhere else.
6. What did you have for breakfast? A slice of vegemite toast and a cup of tea :) The same thing I have every morning. I like routine.
7. What is your favorite cuisine? Hot and spicy!!! That is so a cuisine.
8. What foods do you dislike? Bananas. And I don't like the look of porridge, or the name, but I love the taste. Does that count?
9. Favorite Place to Eat? Anywhere!! I love eating!!
10. Favorite dressing? Nando's extra-hot peri peri!
11.What kind of vehicle do you drive? A toyota corolla with no aerial. I broke it off by accident.
12. What are your favorite clothes? Dresses! Pretty pretty dresses! And high heels.
13. Where would you visit if you had the chance? The pyramids in Egypt. I don't know why but I think it would be really awesome. Future husband, if you're reading this, please propose to me at the pyramids.
14. Cup 1/2 empty or 1/2 full? Well if I'm eating/drinking what's in the cup, half-empty because I'll want more. But in the 'it's a lot like life' way... half full I think.

16. Favorite time of day? The warm sunny part, and night time.
17. Where were you born? Fitzroy. How unexciting.
18. What is your favorite sport to watch? Netball! And dance! And basketball! And football!
19. Who do you think will not tag you back? I haven't tagged anyone in the first place. The pressure was too much - who do I tag first? Will I offend someone if I don't tag them? What if someone gets tagged by me and is all like 'oh that Emily girl is so lame I hate her so much look at her crap answers to this crazy quiz'? So I went for the blog instead. The pressure is so much less.
20. Person you expect to tag you back first? ...see above :)
21. Who are you most curious about their responses to this? Um. Well. The questions aren't all that enlightening, so I'm not too fussed.

24. Do you have any pets? Nahhhhhhhh. One day I'd like to have a fish :)
25. Any new and exciting news you'd like to share? I was sucked in by the sales girl at Shiseido and bought THE MOST AMAZING SKIN STUFF EVER OH MY GOSH. My face is so smooth! And hydrated!

26. What did you want to be when you were little? An author, or a journalist, or a diplomat, or ... or... everything!
27. What is your best childhood memory? Lots of family holidays... and probably dancing. I loved dancing.
28. Are you a cat or dog person? I'm not really an animal person... although once I get to know certain dogs I fall in love with them.
29. Are you married? To my law degree.
30. Always wear your seat belt? I do :) It's the first thing I do when I get in the car. Safety first!
31. Been in a car accident? Nope :) Oh wait, I lie - I was, on the way to a dance concert.
32. Any pet peeves? People who mis-use apostrophes, or use the wrong 'your/you're', or who put in speech marks when there is NO SPEECH YOU'RE EMPHASIZING SOMETHING SO UNDERLINE IT FOOLS. Or people who try to compete with you when there's no competition. Example: 'Oh man, I have so much work to do this weekend this sucks', 'Yeah well I had seven assignments due yesterday and eight essays for tomorrow and I have to walk my dog, so yours is nothing'. =\ But I never said I was trying to compete with you!!

42. Broccoli? Yum!
43. What was your favorite vacation? Probably the school tour to England, that was so fun! And America because it's awesome. And all the Bali/Penang trips. I think all vacations :)

Photoshop!
So I've had photoshop on my computer for a while, but have always been intimidated by it so never did anything. What a fool! I saw a tutorial here on how to make your photos look TTV - and it was easy!!! There's still a few kinks I have to iron out like sizing the frames and working out how to resize layers, and also how to unchange the accidental changes I made to the settings... but they're all easy to live with! Anyway, here's some of the fun photos I had a play with...
Exciting hey??? I'm so addicted.Now I want to learn more!
By the way, all the overlays I used were found here.

Je pense que le francais est beau parce que les mots sont differents mais le moyen des mots est le meme chose. Mais, quand vous lisez que j'ecris, vous voyez un passage sans comprendre. Vous ne comprenez rien; c'est possible que vous ne comprendrez jamais.
Et pour moi, je compris maintenant. Mais demain, ou dans l'avenir, c'est probable que je ne comprendrai pas. Et, c'est d'accord.
Et, ce passage, c'est plein d'erreurs.
J'espere que vous savez que je t'aime. Et un jour, cet amour-la sera parfait. Jusqu'a ce jour-la, j'essayerai d'etre plus consacre.

Hello Friends!
I have lots of things to say, but I'm going to limit them for now.
Life lessons in a list:
* DON'T MAKE NOISES IN THE LAW LIBRARY
* It is really cold all the time, take a jacket.
* Losing your smartrider is losing your life.
* It's possible to make bad days good days
And some lyrics that have been swirling around in my head. I love this song:
Give me a reason
For life and for death
A reason for drowning
While I hold my breath
Something to laugh at
A reason to cry
With everyone hopeless
And hoping for something
To hope for
Yeah, with something to hope for
Could it be true
Can life be new
Could it be all that I am
Is in You
Could it be this
Could it be bliss
Can it be You
Can it be You
Switchfoot//Love and Life and Why
The second half of the song is the best.
Anyway, Cervantes tomorrow I better pack!

Tonight I...
* manipulated the method of my movement
* was dominant and submissive
* LOLed a lot at the combination of my two favourite TV shows in the world, Biggest Loser and SYTYCD which amalgamated into Dance Your Ass Off (fun note, the host is as much in need of hitting the gym as the contestants)
* sat in front of the heater and ate chocolate
* panicked about the foolishness of doing two third-level law units
* ate more chocolate.
It was awesome :)

Lame-face girls
I've been a lame-face girl this last month and I am done! No more!
Uni has started, it's a fresh start, new things to learn and things to do. There are many happy adventures ahead. Focus focus focus.
How I Met Your Mother has been really helpful - the characters are all my best friends. I regularly have the urge to tell people to Suit up and stuff.
Yeah.
Time to stop being sad and be awesome instead.
...end of really badly constructed post.

Steve, Emma, Jenny, Bec and I went to a community gospel concert at St Patrick's Basilica. It was wikkid fun! We were the youngest people in the audience by about 400 years, and it was just the best thing - and wow can some of those people sing. This photo is depressingly blurry, but we were stuck over to the side and I was embarrassed at taking photos with a big flash =]
June 29
A bit of an emo photo, but to be fair, Monday mornings are never easy. Label makers really are my new favourite thing, and that song lyric had been running around my head for a bit. But not in the bad way... more in the 'nobody said it was easy, but you don't need to give up' sort of way. And besides, I love that coffee notebook paper :)
June 30
Emily at work - hot hot coffee, the Optus cup (I really like that cup, it's such a fabulous shape and a fabulous yellow) and files...lots and lots and lots and LOTS of files. It was a filing week.
July 1
What has now been described to me as 'the best boyfriend you'll ever have'. I know it's featured a bit on this blog lately but hey... it's pretty freaking awesome. As shamed as I am to say it!
July 2
This is an awful photo because it is overflashed and disgustingly coloured, but THIS IS THE BEST SHOP EVER! Omg. I spent ages in there just looking at everything - I didn't even need a new notebook (I compulsively buy them and have a million to use up) but I just fell in love with it. Everyone who hasn't been, I'm taking you to the Flying Teapot because it's just so beautiful =D
July 3
We played Jenga and watched TV shows before hitting Subi for the night. Note that the Jenga tower on the left is defying all physics laws by missing one of the poles on the bottom layer and STILL STANDING. Amazing.
July 4
And Saturday was movie fun. That popcorn was the biggest thing I've ever ever seen. We saw The Year One. It was okay. I probably wouldn't pay to see it again... in fact I'd recommend just seeing it on DVD. It had a few good jokes though :)

In other news, Ali has returned from Africa which is exciiting :)
And camp was so fun! We made food in ENORMOUS quantities for the 120 people there. I helped make a self saucing pudding, involving 4 kilos of sugar, 4 kilos of flour, 2 kilos of cocoa.... it was AMAZIIINNNGGG!!!!! And it TASTED amazing which is perhaps the most amazing part of it all.
It really blew my mind how much these kids eat. One kid came back for four helpings of every meal. It was super weird.
I'm too tired to write anything of substance... it's back to work tomorrow, so sleepy time!
