yep. I want to be like jules and brent.

bah, I hate everything I write about 2 minutes after I publish it. at least here on this blog I can delete things or make them friends only. it sucks at work after I've done some editorial, like news or reviews or something because once it's published... it's out there. no more changes. and I get INSTANT REMORSE as soon as I see it go up! it makes me not want to write editorial anymore because I get so panicky before uploading it and people get cranky because I take so long... hrm.

hey I'll probably delete this later too! cool.

I found this last night. I think it was new years day, jan 1st 2009.

ok so figured I should update this journal with something that isn't an emo rant. there are good things going on in my life too, true story. I just did my tax and will get back $300, zing. and in more interesting news, I'm totally learning to skateboard. yes, me...on a board...skating. I'm pretty good so far, no tricks but I can go up and down in the alleyway behind my house without falling off. radicool.

also, here are some photos of me almost dressed up as ramona flowers from scott pilgrim. I tried to get a blue wig, but light purple was the best I could do. was still kinda ramona-ish.


it is interesting to note that the only times I ever smile with my mouth open are when I am more than a little intoxicated.

and... that is all.

1) riding on the bus

2) eating too much lasagne

3) ex-girlfriends

4) $600 telstra bills

this is what I look like sitting in a park wearing brent's hat.

aaaaaaagh I'm such a loser!

would appreciate some sort of hollywood makeover montage right about now. you know, one where the nerdy girl suddenly gets hot and confident and everyone is really surprised. that would be seriously awesome, thanks.

this is clementine and I watching bones the other week. I forgot to watch it tonight, now I will never see bones get it on with angel :'(





clem is the cutest cat ever, amirite?

HEY YOU GUYS, HOW GOOD IS LIFE? THE SUN IS SHINING AND THE BIRDS ARE SINGING AND EVERYTHING IS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD. NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT HEY? CARPE DIEM AND SHIT. LIVING LIFE TO THE FULL! PARTY!

cool, so basically what I'm trying to say is - I'm not feeling emo anymore mofos.

also I made the emo entry friends only. internets don't need to read this shit!

Bella recommends: Talons + Violent Soho @ Spectrum, Sydney, NSW. August 29:

Local punx/dreamboats/mega-legends Talons are teaming up with the long-haired leaders of 'The Grunge Revival Movement' (TGRM) Violent Soho to bring 'the ruckus' to Spectrum this Saturday. I guarantee this double feature will be blowing minds all over the place. And good news to those pull-out-bros who can't make the show tonight - both bands will also be destroying the Annandale Hotel on Sunday the 30th. Though if I were you, I'd consider going to both shows. Think about it.

my "boss" mike just made this for me.

all my wildest dreams have just come true.

I slept really badly after my freak out and consequently had a loooong, tiring day at work today. But as I was sitting at my desk eating lunch I suddenly got the urge to do something, to get out, get motivated. So when I got home I started week 1 of Spod's Fantasyze regime.

I never, ever exercise. I'm not fit at all and I get asthma when I run. It was so hard but after I was finished I felt a lot better. I think I would like to keep doing it, it'll be good. Maybe it will give me more energy?

Sorry for the emo rant before. I guess everyone gets down every once in a while. I just need to try and be more positive and not let stuff bother me.

ugh, do you ever feel like you want to delete all of your stupid online accounts? facebook, myspace, twitter... sometimes I don't know what I'm doing with myself. this blog included. I have nothing worthwhile to contribute, sometimes I think I am just wasting everyone's time, making them scroll past me or click away from whatever dumb thing I am trying to communicate. especially on twitter.

I wish I still did proper blogs but I don't have the energy anymore. I'm boring.

ramona

done another picture of ramona.

actually I did this one too, ages ago. I didn't post it before on the off chance jonny would see it and laugh at me.

what?

it's ART apparently!

holy moly. remember how I used to have a fringe?



how. weird.

um, that's all. bye!

I bought a macbook pro. it has revolutionised my existence. I can't believe I have been without a mac for so long. life is awesome.

and look, a CAMERA! clementine is camouflaged.



um. proper blogs soon. maybe. ps I am reading everyone's blogs I'm just too lazy/tired to comment. sorry you guys.

STOP, BIRTHDAY TIME.

Friday night was our best friend BRENT'S BIRTHDAY! Considering Brent "Party Machine" Griffin has created some of the best parties known to man, we decided to pay him back by throwing an epic SURPRISE!!!1! party in his honour.

We booked a room at the Ryder (the awesome mexican restaurant above the Hopetoun Hotel) and invited all of Brent's superfrenz to party. To make things extra special, it was also decided that The Superfrenz would collaborate on an album for the Spodster. Yeah, WE wrote SPOD an album of party jams. MY HOW THE TABLES HAVE TURNED.

I can't even begin to tell you how amazing this album is. It's just honestly unbelievable. Everyone put in so much effort and so much love, it's kind of really beautiful. It shows how much Brent means to so many people.

Renee, Pat and I made a song called "What She Said (This Song Rules And So Does Brent)" under the moniker, The Creaps. It's kind of embarrassing listening to our song and then listening to everyone elses, considering most of the people on the album are actual musicians (Richard in Your Mind, Talons, Andy Clockwise, Pivot, Seja (Regurgitator) and Sam "the most attractive man in the music industry" Cross. Not to mention the amazing songs created by Spod's band The Orsumators (members of the Tucker B's, RIYM, Palace of Fire/ex-Wolfmother.) I'm still so proud of our song though.

The cd was Myles' idea, and I believe he also put together the cover arts. Take a look! Amazing!





I can't stop listening to this cd. I love Brent. I love being a superfrend.

THIS IS A COMPLETE SHAMBLES.

I made this for the lovely lucy (ultrarabbit ) um, about A MONTH AGO? And I meant to have it posted by her actual birthday. But for some reason I am incapable of getting to a post office, so to show rabbit that I do actually care about her, I'm going to put it up on the internets for easy access. Some day, some how, I promise I will post you the actual CD rabbit! I'm sorry I'm such a lousy friend!

(had to edit the little message from "hope you have a lovely birthday!" to "omg I'm a shit friend this is a year late")
