boys and girls

this is one of the funniest 'best friend ditching you for her boyfriend stories' yet.
ME: what are you doing this weekend?
WORKMATE: well, i was supposed to go out with my friend. but then she said if i would like to go bowling with her and her boyfriend. So i asked who else was coming because there was no friggin' way i was going to go and be in the middle of all their kissing. i tell her that and she says that i have to come because otherwise he wants to take her to a hotel room. That's sooooo weird so i say alright i'll come but can i bring a friend? But she says that I can't bring the friend that i want to bring because her boyfriend doesn't like her. So i get really mad at her and i slammed down the phone right? So she calls me back after me being mad at her and she says that she's invited some people so I won't be alone but the only ones who want to come are my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend. So I'm like SUPER pissed now because i definitely don't want to be in the middle of two couple kissing and stuff.
So i don't think i'm going to do anything this weekend...what are you laughing at?

So it's more like the Oscars than the Emmys?

tonight at work i was in SUCH a good mood (I'm normally like a depressed Naomi Campbell) and i almost agreed to doing something very stupid: going to to the work awards presentation ceremony. I thought it might be ok considering i only have a few shifts left and what can they do if i act like a complete dick? Fire me? Well I've already quit. Besides i thought it might be like a Gala with balloons and streamers and music and food.
Apparently, its like the horrible part of a school assembly when they read out the names of the students who have received some badge or other. What's worse is when you aren't one of those students (or stores this season) to receive an award so its just a big waste of your time.
Apparently you all sit in rows, not tables.
Apparently there is only food when you walk in.
Apparently people all wear the clothes from the company which is bad for me because i don't own anything from work.
And Apparently we all HAVE TO GO because we are a new team! It feels like the Olympics but i know i've already lost.
Of course i think i sort of agreed to coming (well i have yet to make an excuse as to why I'm not) because i went to work under the influence. I guess this is why they prefer their staff members sober.

ok, this totally beats all other hello kitty merchandise

the toaster, the sandwich maker, the water cooler, the luggage, the cushions, the bedding, the shower radio, the alarm clock, the cd player and the Ipod speakers all added together equals this


i mean you have to be seriously rich and have another car which you can drive around in the daytime around normal people. or you have to be seriously mental.
but i was driving around strathfield one night (which i wont do again) and there was this little yellow beetle with hello kitty sprayed on it. AND it was a P-plater.
i was almost tempted to run into the convenience store that i was parked in front of and buy some spray paint and a stencil myself.

the one wearing pink is the girl, the one with the stripes and the duck is the boy

Tonight we celebrated Angie and Tony's 'birthday'. It's chinese to celebrate their one month birthday but tonight was actually their two month so i put it down to the fact that there are two of them.
anyway, enough about them...I discovered another group like the uni group. these are kids that i stopped hanging out with when i turned 8. they just talk about EVERYTHING
"hey, wasn't it funny that night that we played strip poker?"
"OMG that girl looks like she hasn't even hit puberty. THAT girl looks like she's hit puberty. Do YOU remember when you hit puberty?" I was like stop saying puberty
Speaking of puberty, i realised that the next big bashy celebrationy thing for someone's baby will be for........ME

SIZZLER!

camara? camaray? caram? ohhh....carramar. I have to say, it was very good despite my initial reservations of moving away from my regular sizzler in carlton (i've just realised how disturbing it is to have a regular sizzler). i still suggest you go to both and see for yourself
carramar: has booze
carlton: has corn
also, there is now take away sizzler. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT? how can you take away sizzler? thats just cheating on yourself.

And i know I've said this before, but i am really really going to miss the whole uni gang. we just have the best things to talk about and do
- growing pubic hair. Its not a big deal for girls so it must be some sort of male/look at my body hair thing.
- westies like to go on swings after sizzler. and next to the swing is a giant crop circle thing with a tree in the middle. i dont know what thats about but we played in it anyway.
- watching multiple tables come and leave during the course of our stay
- watching the sun go up and down again during the course of our stay

and as always, there were a few good calls of the day but i have to say that his tops the list:
LUCI: (she went around taking photos of everyone so that we could have 'portraits' of our friends when we are in NY) So, Daren how do you want to look in your portrait?
DAREN: (seriously) Oh, I'm thinking like, you know, relaxed...
WHO SAYS THAT?! but here it is...Daren looking relaxed




mary decided that not looking at the camera made you look better in a photo. I dont know, i have a before and after shot there for you to decide (keya being the constant and luci and i being variables). But it also means that now i have a lot of photos of a large group of friends all smiling at the camera except for mary who's chosen to smile at something else...

No wait...i take that back

technology is pretty ok.
So a while ago, i emailed the ABC and requested to see Pinky beecroft back on the Glasshouse and tonight, on their 200th episode special he was ON!
i like to think that i had a little (tiny) something to do with it but i dont know, you do the math.
(those who watched it should get it and be laughing right now)

technology sucks!

so after the whole laptop thing, i come home from work the other day and the DVD player has stopped working.
OH
MY
GOD!
so im like its ookkkk...because i can just go buy a cleaner tomorrow. This idea is rejected, instead it is taken back to the dodgy fob who sold it to us. We got a new one that only shows things in pink or blue. this may be due to two reasons:
1) i dont know how to read (unlikely)
2) its not actually NEW, its off the boat like everything else! (very likely)

So im a reduced to watching 'shock docs' and that Ivan Milat special.

Bouncing back from being screwed

i have to say, the book is better than this thing because at least you dont have to hear her voice. You just have to put up with sentences like "i like wearing blue. it makes me feel like a princess."

I promise...this is my first and last Paris entry (hehehe).

I've never needed alcohol more in my life...

I'm pretty sure this one wasnt a dream because i was actually really angry...


Mum: hey! How come the new laptop broke? i was just playing a game and then everything stopped.
Dad: It's ok. I'll fix it...

i dont think that the world is big enough for the 4 of us...

"We are best friends and we always dress alike."

maddissonn? are you out there in another band and you just haven't told me?
