This is what I feel like today

I couldn't have said it any better!

It does feel like this sometimes, but for some reason it's getting to me this time. I feel like I go around in circles remembering more things that I need to do while I am in the middle of doing something else and then I get side tracked and forget what I was originally doing! It's very frustrating. Maybe this is half to do with my failing memory. Where did it go?! I really would like it back.

In other news, I have decided to do the City to Surf this year. 14km. August 2012. I've started going for a run at lunchtime with the others in the office as we are going to register as a team, so hopefully I will stick to it since I have others counting on me!

Come take a walk on the wild side, let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain

Happy New Year! Have you made any Resolutions?

I don't usually make any as I almost ALWAYS fail to complete them but I thought I'd make more of an effort this year, seeing I am another year wiser and closer to the big Three Oh. *die*

(I have also decided to start these in Feb!)

• 1 Pair of shoes / 2 months
• Save $5000 by June 2012
• Get healthy and fit
• Go to Melbourne
• Go overseas
• Better my memory
• Drink more water and take vitamins
• Don't buy anymore black dresses (unless I REALLY love it)

I also wanted to share some photos of the best anniversay present ever...

TUCKER!

And now I will leave you with this song, "Born to Die" by Lana Del Rey. Love! She's almost the female version of Leonard Cohen.

My Recent Purchases

I knew it was a bad idea for me to go online and 'see whats new' on ebay + other websites!
Look what I have bought...

Actually, I think it was a great idea.

Project Sew

This is definitely going onto my sewing to do list!

Perhaps you'd like to see how sss-snake-like I can be

I have a family friend who once had a snake ring and ever since I saw her wear it (like 10 years ago!) I have been looking for one. Today was the day! I picked it up from DIVA for like 5 bucks... ha!

When I got home I had a look online for some others - Gee there are some nice serpent rings around...

My Recent Purchases

So I splurged on the Dior Sunglasses! I needed some moral support from Nicole so I took her along to see what she thought, and as soon as I put them on again I knew I was going to buy them. The assistant remembered me from last weekend and added "They are 20% today" - how could I NOT buy them?!


In the last week-ish, I also bought this bag from Forever New:

and these shoes from the Markets:

Europe... is just around the corner!

Today we booked the remaing part of the trip: Car Hire in France! I am soooo glad thats all over and done with - who would've thought that booking a holiday was such hard work! Now we just have to pay the remainder on arrival at each destination *sigh* That 90 million sure would come in handy right now!

Lily Allen Concert - A couple of photos

Because my internets is pretty lame, I have just uploaded some photos. I might get Ray to upload some of the videos I took of her concert - which was pretty awesome by the way - up onto youtube. It was FREEZING though, and if Ray and I knew it was only going to start at like 9pm, we would have turned up 10mins before she came on. The opening band weren't that crash hot.

Lily performed all the songs of both her albums, plus Oh my god (Kaiser Chiefs cover) and Womanizer (Britney cover).

I think she should have played at the entertainment centre or somewhere a lilttle less shit. The horden pavilion isn't the 'place to be' - but in saying that, it was still a great concert. I really enjoyed the songs live. 10/10! hehe

In the good ol' days

More bills arrived in the mail this week. Car rego, greenslip and insurance. A whopping $2000 in bills - Sometimes I hate being 'responsible'.

Some days, don't you just wish you could throw it all in and just do a handstand against the wall like you used to.
