ok..

I agreed to be on the choreography team for GS..

What the hell was I thinking?

(Background: I have no dancing talent whatsoever.. I like Latin and Ballroom.. and everybody else on the team is hip hop a-la Fresh Funk: which I tried once and wasn't fantastic at, but there is no chance I can sneak a jive in anywhere.. wait!! OMG! I just thought of a Jive number!! *runs off to call claire*)

 anyway..

But it's kinda turning out for the best. The rest of the group are fantastic dancers.. but I'm really creative! So the do the dances and I think of odd things to make them do

*and back from claire.. the jive is in! huzzah!*

and now.. to practice my (soon to be) dance item..

My friends pet is dying..

and I'm crying?

Am I crying more for her or her pet?

WTF?

Oh, My, God.

If more airline hostesses were like this, the world would be a better place..

Hope you enjoy, kiddies!

Well, as phil has not re-installed the drivers for the speakers back into the pc yet, i'm forced to abandon homestarrunner.com for something that doesn't require sound.

hence, here.

There is an abondance of things to do.. and yet, not much worth doing.

I think I've finally decided what to get cam for his birthday...

(I know, I know, I had already decided before..  but I just can't afford to buy him a motox bike.. though I really wish I could.)

So, it is back to the old trick.. get him to ask you if he can get something.. say no... then surprise him for it.

It's kinda odd, before I saw him oggling the little tykes I would never had guessed he's like any of them, they're much more my thing.. but that boy surprises me every day with more reasons to love him..  that was so soppy, I can't believe I said it.

I'm being deliberately vague...  I want to surprise him, so he can't know before hand.

I'm so excited

currently typing with one hand, as coco the python is curled up in the other and has decided that she has moved enough for one night, thankyou very much, and is not budging.

(she started around my neck.. ended up medusa - style wrapped around my braids... then i picked her off and now she won't let go.)

anyways.. i write this from Cam's new abode.

yes, yes i know, i should be here too but i've decided that i've got just waaay too much stuff to officially move out, i have to take all my stuff with me when we go and my kyacks just won't fit in the living room.

(Thanks to the guys for inviting us into their home.. i won''t say whom cause cam hasn't told his parents yet)

and coco has decided to lounge across the desk/keyboard as well, thus making me not only unable to use my left hand.. but also wary of where i put my fingers too.

so  update..

Solomon islands was awesome.

I missed cam too much to be away for that long again.

an suffering from withdrawals from not seeing all of my friends whom i saw every single day  (and shared a bed with for some of it.. mel and ruffy and danni and josh.. i miss you!!!)

Cam just came and took Coco off me.. wah.  i LIKED her getting in my way.. it was endearing. ar well, i guess i'll have to take them both. he's endearing too

Looking for a full time job.. yay for more money!

Looking for land to build a house on.. yay!

Looking for art to fill my house that both cam and I enjoy.. we have the same tastes in some things.. but mine are more varied on others..  so i've got it figured on the exact picture for our bedroom that i know he'll absolutely cream his pants when he sees it.. but for the rest of our house, i dunno.  my studio is all sorted.  that's my domain. i know what i want, i've just got to get it.  lounge is a pickle.. half done and yet to be finished. "Have nothing i your house that you do not know to be useful.. or believe to be beautiful" - William Morris.

Kittens have gone back to their home.. we had 4 kittens (ginger and pippa's kittens..) who were absolutely gorgeous, cam and i were going to adopt 2.. but they had to go back to the neighbours. so sad..

am in a art phase.. my muse has awakened and i must paint! thus i am off to purchase a caouple of canvasses and re-arange for my easle to return to my posession..  I have a new sketch book.. but tis not enough for me.. i must paint before this idea/muse/concept/art is lost to the world forever!

so much os happening.. and no time to do it in..

youu know, it's only when he's back in town that i realise i've missed him, just mucking around with him.

He's my mate for almost forever.. we met by play-fighting, and that's how our friendship is defined.

We've got an understanding of anti-affection, and it's probably better left that way.

So I'll never be able to be mushy and gross and tell him how much he means to me..

no matter what, how long or how far we are apart.  Even if i only get to beat him up once a year (Yeah, I've still got the upperhand in sumo. he's stronger than me, he just doesn't know it.  or maybe he does and just lets me win.. hope not.)  He'll always be my mate.

i think he already knows,

but dammit i wish i could tell him.

what I had actually logged in yesterday to say was:

happy birthday Freddy.

So long Steve.

but hey, i forgot about that in the long run..

and in other news:

I need a bike.

a good, reliable dirt bike that i can also register and drive on my Ls.

I know, i know, i should be happy with what i've got, but it can't be ridden on the road under any circumstances, let along on my Ls.

besides, I'm still rather wary of it since I crashed it.  It didn't scare me at the time, i was going a good 70 or 80 kms/hr, so I was more of.. *checking for limbs* ok, I came out of that one ok.  lucky.

I still haven't bought the handlebars for it, just bent them back into place, i'm so lucky thay're the only main damage i need to replace.

on a smaller bike i won't have to deal with the temptation of speeding.. i just won't be able to do it! This thing is too big and powerful, it makes me want to just let it fly full throttle and screw the consequences.  unfortunately the consequences could be me.

I need to get my technique all together and get over my urge for thrills and speed, and i need a bike that's not going to give me the temptation.

I love the rmx, i really do, but i need to have a reality check, preferable before i end up in hospital.

*24 days to go..

*I'm off to put money in the bank.. oh, it's sucha grand feeling to not be totally poor!

I won't publish people's houses, they might get annoyed at me..

but it gives you an idea.. that's from 950m above the ground.  you can get closer, but you loose the perspective.

It's official.. the myth has been dispelled, you cannot see the great wall of china from space.

you can, however, see my house clearly from 2km above ground.

i'm having soo much fun..

nothing like chatting to mick on the phone and telling him that i can see his house.. and it being true!

mmm.. satelite stalking..

who can i stalk next?

if anyone has the grid reference to their house (or anything else for that matter.. everest looks particularly white this time of year) I can show it to them

oh, the power..
