   Well
There's not much going on here, but I figured I may as well post anyway. My internet connection is so ridiculously slow. I wish I had broadband so bad! -_-;;;

I've spent the last couple of days watching DVDs and reading books. I feel lazy now. So I figured I'd go shopping with my friends tomorrow. I got so many vouchers for christmas, I have to spend them sooner or later...

^_^... I said I didn't have much to say...

Anyway, I have to go find some lunch. I'm hungry... for once. My tummy is rumbling something terrible.

Au Revoir!

   Duckfreak!
Well, I got back from holiday yesterday, but after a gruelling 5-and-a-bit hours on a train, I really didn't feel like it. I apologise for any inconvenience ^-^

Well, my holiday was awesome. It rained quite a bit though. Which sucked, coz we were camping in tents so we got a bit soaked at times. But, on the other hand, I had fun feeding the myriads of ducks that came to the campground with the rain! Heh... They would eat bread from my hands and everything. I earned the title of duckfreak, which was pretty cool- well, sorta ^_^

On the sunny days, we would go out in the boat, and go fishing... or ski biscuiting. That was fun. Ski biscuiting involves a blow up ring with a base- the biscuit- which gets towed behind a boat at high speeds while you sit in it. It's so much fun!!! Here, I'll draw a picture for the confused people...



Well, I tried. I'm not very good at drawing boats. Which is why I labelled everything ^-~ I love boating now, and water. Even though I'm a really bad swimmer. I suppose that's why they invented life jackets. For people like me ^_~

I caught a fish, too! I'm proud ^-^ It was a blue cod, and it tasted soooooo good. Fresh fish is the shizz!

Sadly, because of the rain, my attempts at getting a proper tan were thwarted. Instead, I got sunburnt. Darnit! Only on my shoulders though, and it's not bad. It seems I'll have to go back to faking it ^_^'

It's good to be back though. Kind of. I have work tomorrow...

Holiday!!!
It appears that I am going on holiday for 7 days or so...
Tomorrow!

It's a pretty sudden announcement, and I won't get time to finish this site's decorating or my pirate picture before I leave either ^_^'Still, I'm really happy that I get to go away for a while- I wasn't going to be able to because of work, but the money was too alluring ^-~

Im going to be camping by the sea, in a lovely little bay which shall remain nameless, in case word gets around. I wouldn't want our pristine spot to be ruined now, would I? I'll be staying there with my cousins. They have a boat ^-^ But my parents aren't going. Theyre "too busy" I think they just want some quality time together... without me ^_~ I can't argue with that lol

I might meet some pirates while we are out fishing anyway ^-~

Anyway, I'm going to come back with a beautiful, golden, non-cancerous tan, and a tummy full of fish. And I'll be content and happy. Very content *imagines fish in her tummy*

Well, I hope you guys all had a great christmas, I'll see you soon. Tell me what you got, if you like ^-^

   Merry Christmas Eve!
Well, it's the night before christmas... Don't go sneaking any presents early, or you won't be getting any next year ^-~

Well, I have my new layout up, It's definately more mild this time round- the end to blinding bright colours shall be my present to you all for this year ^-^

I just need to put the background up... And some christmas decorations, if I get time...

Not much else to say here, but I'm hoping that you guys all have a wonderful christmas day, and that you get all the anime related gifts your hearts desire... so long as you don't make Santa go broke ^-^

Lots of Love, and God Bless!

   Wow... Christmas shopping, all for me?!?
Well, last night my mother and I went shopping. We went out to buy me a decent watch as my primary chrissie present. I now have a beautiful baby pink scoopneck halter, and a new set of pens, which I desperately needed, and a whole lot of stuff that we're eyeing up for the boxing day sales... heh. Oh, and the most shizzlicious watch. It's a really nice digital one. I can't read analogue watches, it takes me too long ^_^'

We were there til midnight, then they kicked us out. Fun fun ^^ The mall was open to midnight anyway. But it was a really nice night for shopping, and I didn't get into any massive arguments with mum.


Here's my favourite pirate picture that I've drawn so far. It's not finished here, but it was the last scan I took of it before I absolutely screwed it up. Oh well ^^ I'm planning to trace it through again, but you'll have to wait till after christmas. Sorry, I have...plans. I'm hoping to put up a new layout for my myO today. We'll see if I can get it done, huh?

Well see you soon, hopefully with a new layout...

Well, I've just woken up... at 12 noon. But I have a good reason- I was working from 5pm till midnight. Like most of my shifts. I got to bed at 2am, so 10 hours sleep is all fine and dandy for me.

I had the wierdest dream. I was at a very wierd school camp, up in the mountains. We all had to sleep in the back of vans ^-^

Somehow, I got put on the fat camp register. Not meaning to sound up myself, I'm not fat. My friends think I'm anorexic. I'm not as thin as that though ^_^

Anyway, the really angry/stupid/cowish lady who was running it had this awesome idea that we weren't allowed to eat or drink anything except for one stingy lettuce leaf each day, and water when we were told. And that's where it turned into an (extremely wierd) nightmare.

We had to exercize using a piano, and other normal, but broken gym equipment. Oh, and I remember that the floor was a pink and black checkerboard. Not a checkerboard patterened floor, but an actual checkerboard. That was the outside part of the gym though. The inside was just cream, with the paint peeling off the walls.

Wierd yet? O_o

The rest of my dream was comprised of stealing food from my friends who weren't on fat camp, and planning to eat it when the trainer lady wasn't looking. The meals were so nice though! Roasts, with potato and kumara (sweet potato) and brandy snaps for dessert, with bowls of cadbury ice-cream. My favourite ^-^

Of course, I always got caught and punished -_-'

There was also a ski field close to the camp. The whole camp- both the fat camp and the normal people- were allowed to go. We got there and...shock horror! The snow was coloured pink, yellow, blue and green for some reason. We weren't supposed to touch the colours for some reason, so we all stayed at the top of the hill, which was white ^_^

Then, someone pushed me, and I fell into the pink. When I stopped sliding, two teachers were skiing around and informing me that I had crossed from NZ territory, into American. And that I needed my passport O_o

I woke up about then, and then I got out of bed, and came here. Makes sense?

Not really ^_^

Well, I'll be back later with something more interesting and important, I suppose.

Oh, and just so you know, my school would never set up a fat camp. In fact, if they did, I'd leave ^_~

   Shopping and R.U.M...
Yesterday, I went shopping. Wow. Amazing, ne?

In fact, it was better than that. I went shopping with friends. Yep, I have friends. More amazing stuff you just have to know.

Well, I went shopping with my friends for a reason. R.U.M Buisness. It's our little secret society that we made ^-~

I can't tell you much more about it, or I'll get kicked out. And that would suck big time. But I can tell you what we bought. Ten identical black t-shirts. Captivating!

Nuff said there

I think my image host is working again. I'll just check...



If that shows, then it goes. What a legendary poet I am ^_^

Oh, and I also got my ears pierced yesterday. Awesome fun. I don't know why I didn't get it done sooner. I wasn't scared or anything, probably just too lazy. It didn't hurt a bit, and it still doesn't. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones so far.

Well, gotta go wash the dog ^-^

Enjoy your day!

Pirates... and other things
I am on a pirate drawing spree. No doubt about it. I have watched Pirates of the Carribean one time too many, and it has driven me to point of doing nothing but drawing pirates.

Which is a shame, because I have work from 5pm till midnight tonight, and all I'm going to be able to do is draw pirates. And ask customers "Would you like a bag for that?" That phrase is eternally cemented in my mind ^_^

Still, I found a really cool site, with a cute little download for those who like drawing. It's like the paintbrush section of adobe photoshop stepped up a notch. The address is:

www.ambientdesign.com

Just copy and paste for now, I'm too lazy to type up a link for you just now.

I got my friends around yeaterday to help decorate my christmas tree. Of course, we got a christmas tree before shinji ponted out that it is a heathen practice according to the Bible (thanks shinji ^_~) But we had fun anyway. Actually, all we really did was make a mess, but it was fun anyway.

I cooked pikelets ^.^ And good pikelets they were too.

And we watched Pirates of the Carribean again. Johnny Depp is one talented (amongst other things) actor, dont you agree?

Yummy ^^

Toodle pip, I'll drop by soon! Hopefully with some pirate pictures.

Hello hello. If you hadn't figured already, I'm back. I'm sorry I haven't been around (with my most sincere apologies, especially to Baron Samedi, who is not much better than I am, but still jumps at the chance to chastise me for my absence) but I have been busy. Extremely busy.

I got the job I wanted.

Heh... now I'm happy. No supermarkets for me, I'm working the till in a homewares store. Awesome. Now I'm a checkout chick ^_~

Also, school is, from this day on, OUT FOR SUMMER! Even better. So I'll be around heaps, when I'm not working.

Well, I'll be back soon, I still have to finish chores -.-
