lucky for some...

Part One: Yahtzee baby!

Today was a mega games-ish kind of day. After Mia's birthday lunch (happy birthday Mia), I went to Fountain Gate with Danielle & Dogga who were spending their Christmas vouchers. While we were there, I bought yahtzee, as you do. On the way home we stopped in at the super clinic, where it was predicted we would be for at least an hour. So, Dogga and I decided to head up to McDonalds to play yahtzee.

It was funny enough trying to shake the dice quietly as to not disturb the other patrons who were dining in, but that was only the start of funny. It got to the last roll of the first game. The only thing that Dogga had left to score was a yahtzee. So in the first roll, he rolls 2 aces. "I'm going for a yahtzee with the ones." Says Dogga. Next roll another one shows up. Then enter me and my big mouth. "Yeah right, you're gonna get a yahtzee. You know what, I bet you will! You will so get a yahtzee." (or something like that) And what do you know! In the last roll... 2 aces!!! It was hysterically funny at the time, perhaps you had to be there. I nearly fell off my chair... good times. Big Laughs.

In the second game, a similar thing happened. On my very last turn I also scored a yahtzee! not quite as funny as the first time, but it did add to the crazyness. Then we went home...

Part 2: Killer Bunnies.

Later that night we went around to Rick and Kassie's where we played some more games. We started with taboo while Dogga read the rules of killer bunnies. That was fun. And then we spent a good hour or so learning how to play killer bunnies. Which i'm still not sure I totally understand! Anyhoo... Ellie attacked my bunny with a whisk, which meant for my bunny to survive I had to roll higher than a one. So, there was a one in twelve chance of my bunny being whisked to death. So what do you think the silly melly rolled? Yep... one! And as I was about to roll I was like here we go, I will so get a one... oh gosh!! It was hillariously funny, but even more so for Dogga and I because of the whole yahtzee with ones thing. I was sitting opposite Dogga and seriously... I have never seen such a funny reaction in all my life! I swear things went pop inside of his head. He nearly jumped out of his skin! Ok so in writing this, I guess you really just had to be there... But trust me, I laughed so much it hurt. Ahhhhh...

And seriously. You need to play killer bunnies. It's bully!

fun fun fun yay!

I am so excited! I just bought taboo! Oh I love board games. I am starting to get a nice little collection of them now... so who is up for a games night? Anyone? Don't forget to bring your calendar. Though you should actually bring your colander...

nothing to say really... but i'm saying it anyway!

Well it sure has been a while since I've written anything here... and it's been even longer since i've written anything interesting. The fact of the matter is that there is nothing interesting going on... and therefore I felt there was no reason to write. But it has come to the point where I must write something, no matter how boring it is... or I shall never write anything again!

I went to look at the birds eggs in the backyard the other day, and I saw a birdie... i'm not sure if it was mother or child however. I was too scared to go really close due to my slight phobia of birds... you never know when they might turn on you and peck your eyes out. But I did manage to zoom to the max and get this really dodgy photo...



What else. The other day we (my bro, sis & I) went into the city to get some glamour (haha) portraits done as a present for my grandparents. It was crazy, expensive... and they didn't respect my angles, but it was fun. I shall be very interested to see how they turn out... I wasn't overly impressed with what I did see as I didn't like my face in them. But we shall see... so long as the oldies like it. At least my sister looked hot. She normally pulls retarded faces in photos... but this occasion was a rare exception. Here is a pic of me & naomi, taken later that day...



And yeah. What else. I completed my folio course thingy... So now hopefully I will be able to work towards getting into a course somewhere, maybe mid year or something. At least I know how to make a folio and deal with an interview and stuff... I just need to work on my sewing skills. And my organizational skills!

Today I went to fountain lakes and I bought my bald mother a pirate bandana. It is like so bully, but I don't think she likes it. I guess she just isn't a pirate at heart like me. Currently my brother is wearing it.

And there... I have written a few somethings, my blog is not dead! Hopefully something exciting will happen before I post next, and I shall share it here. Maybe!

+ car jamming

oh dear...

This week has been kinda silly. I can't believe the stupid things I have been doing...

It all started on on Tuesday when I rocked up to work at 10 to 6 in the morning. I had thought it was stocktake, and as I am unavailable on Tuesday evenings, I was going to help with dairy. I hadn't got all that much sleep the night before, but I was there... a week early. I really don't know how I got my weeks mixed up, I guess it was just a lack of a brain. Anyway, I was particulary not excited about getting up at 5am knowing that I would have a late night... and because of whatever, I was there when I didn't need to be. On my way out the door, the person who was working offered the shift to me, but I was freaking out about my lack of sleep, and went back to bed. However I did somehow agree to working at 6am the next day... after a late night. I'm not sure why...

On Wednesday, the person who was working my shift in the afternoon called in sick, and after many calls there was nobody to fill it. So I ended up working a second time that day. It really hurt.

I also had to cancel my hair appointment twice... once due to working, once due to sleeping in. Finally I made it on my third try.

Its just been one of those weeks. But I am determined to make sure the weekend is fabulous.


ps- my mum looks like yoda.

babies in the garden...

how special!

toilet paper...

All this last week, I have been really disturbed by the prints that I have found on the toilet paper. I mean sure, shells and flowers and dolphins... they are all pretty standard... but jellyfish? now that is just plain wrong. But then I noticed something even more bizarre... not only are there jellyfish on this particular toilet paper, but there are embossed roses. For this combination, I do not have words...

it's my birthday...

yay!

a really crap story, but i'm sharing anyway.

hehehe... at work the other day I had to try really hard not to giggle. (since then I have giggled)... A customer bought something, as customers often do... blah blah (skipping ahead)... the purchase was completed, and the customer... a he as he was... finished off by saying "Thanks girlfriend". It really was hillarious in my mind... I guess you just had to be there, and come to think of it you probably really have to be me to think its funny... so really, why am I posting this? coz I am silly. but oh well. It was one of those little moments that really made my day.

In all fairness I did say it was a crap story.

tonsils are stupid.

Yucky, I hate being sick. On Thursday, I realised that I was going to have to go to the doctors... so I called in sick to work (which I hate doing) and made an appointment. Then that night I went to see a Ben Lee gig. I felt so dodgy, like I was wagging school or something. (However it was awesome! Ben is so my favourite... I recommend seeing him live. He is my favourite performer without a doubt). Then on Friday, I was feeling worse (probably coz I went out the night before), but I went to work anyway. It was horrible. One girl didn't show up coz her car broke down, I was the only senior on and I was unofficially left in charge, but I couldn't do spot balances or anything because there was no one else old enough to work in the service desk. It was busy too... eek. The worst thing was... it really hurts to talk, and being in the service desk you say hi, that comes to... enter your card... any extra cash?... sign the slip... here is your reciept... have a nice day... A MILLION MORE TIMES than if you were on a big register. Thankfully it was only a short shift, and I managed to survive. Then today... I woke up feeling worse still, so I called in sick again. Again I feel dodgy, but this time I promise I wont go out at night!

And that shall be the end of my blah for today. I think I will go and watch blades of glory again, love that movie!

first thing to cross off my birthday wish list...

I have a secret. I bought a tamagotchi. Apparently this makes me a loser... oh well.

The good news is I probably wont kill him because you can pause it. But all little Oreo ever seems to do is sleep anyway...

Now I just need a friend to get a tamagotchi so they can have babies. I think any chance of that happening is pretty slim however. Unless of course I make friends with a 10 year old...

2 in 2 weeks? I think...

Last night I got random breath test number two. I have come to the conclusion that police must get especially bored on Tuesdays.

A funny story...

On Friday night I went away with all of my homies from the snow. We went to Port Welshpool, but we stopped for dinner on the way in Foster. While we were eating dinner, a man came to our table selling raffle tickets. So we all bought some, as you do. Jackie and I had 3 tickets between us... I had 65, we shared 66 and Jackie had 67. Just before the raffle was drawn, the man who was selling them asked Teigan and I to help draw out the raffle. Teigan drew out all of the tickets for the meat trays. Then I drew out all of the tickets for the chickens. The first ticket I pulled out was yellow 67 D... Jackie's ticket! So she won a raw chicken. I thought it was hillarious. The raffle man complimented me on my calling skills and then I ate the rest of my dinner... and then we were on the road again.

The end.

my (ridiculous) birthday wish list

It is now 20 something days until my birthday. (And I shall be a fun number... yay!) Even though I know I am probably too old for presents now, I suggested to my mother what she could get me for my birthday today... that is if she was planning to get me anything at all. And now I am inspired to make a birthday wish list... so here goes it.

+ An ambulance membership. (what I asked mumsy for... but i'm pretty sure she will get me a melways)

+ An all expenses paid trip to the dentist. (The next thing I asked mumsy for. I need to go to the dentist badly... but I don't want to pay for it... as in probably wont be able to pay for it. I'm sure it will be an expensive visit, I know I will need multiple fillings. Eek & Sigh...)

+ A car. (haha... yeah right)

+ A laptop. (a slightly cheaper haha... yeah right)

+ JB voucher. (yay, cd's and dvd's)

+ A tamagotchi. (don't even ask... coz I don't know why)

+ The last 3 seasons of full house (don't think they are even released yet)

+ A selection of board games. In particular... taboo, balderdash & cluedo. (coz I am a board games nerd... even if nobody wants to play with me)

+ A new bed frame. (coz mine is squeaky. I guess thats another haha... yeah right. But hey... wishes are not limited by funds)

+ A subscription to Frankie. (best magazine ever published)

+ Sewing lessons. (I really want to learn... and I need professional help!)

+ A massage. (It's all I ever want really...)

+ Season 2 of Road to Avonlea. (I'm pretty sure it is not available in Australia though)

+ Tickets to the spicks & speck-tacular. (would be so awesome)

+ Decent luggage. (I want to go places)

+ Some pretty flowers. (who wouldn't want pretty flowers on their birthday?)

+ A picnic rug. (would be handy, as it is coming into picnic season and all)


And I think that just about does it! Gosh... what a list. I don't wish for much, do I now? Oh well... its all just a bit of fun!

In need of direction...

I am a silly driver. As in I have no idea where I am going... I simply make it up. On Tuesday night, I was trying to go to box hill tafe, but the way I had planned to go did not exist. Well, it did exist... but I couldn't get there that way. (Was trying to take a road with no exit... coz I am dumb and clearly cannot read a melways. This is because I am a melway... and who needs another!) Anyhoo, I ended up going down warrigal rd, because I knew that meant I had gone too far, as it was the way to my cousin's house... which was definately past where I needed to be. I ended up calling my mum and asking her where to go, but she didn't know because I had the melways! I kept on driving, convinced that I could 'feel my way there' a stupid technique of mine that actually works more than you'd think. I drove past thomas st... which is the road that leads to my cousin's house. So I took the next left, and hoped that I could find my way to Jemimah's to ask for directions. I missed her house like a million times, as I have only been there once before... and her road is a funny one that goes in weird shapes. Eventually I make it to her parking space, however she is not home... so I call her and next thing you know... she's home! Jem gave me the directions I needed and I was back on the road.

*Breathes*

Finally I make it to box hill... only I am late. It was like 5 past 6 or something, and class started at 6... and I had another dilemma. Where the heck was I supposed to park? I did try and look it up before I left, but that didn't really help much coz really, I had no idea. So... I drove around for a while... up and down streets and what not. Eventually I park a million miles away at some medical centre car park... the upside was 'free parking til 6am', the downside... a big walk and I was getting later and later by the moment (funny that really). Blah blah blah... And now i'm up to the part where I find the room where the class is supposedly being held. Someone else had just got there, and they had discovered that there was nothing happening in the room. So, it was decided that perhaps class was supposed to start at 7 afterall. I personally not convinced. Sure, our room was empty, but I could here talking in the distance... words such as fashion, industry, folio and drawing were most definately being used. This made me very confused and anxious. But what did I do? I sat there for 10-15 minutes. Some people arrived for a photography class. They were waiting at my room. Then, the photography dude arrived and let them all in... to my room! Which clearly, was not my room at all... I had a mini freak and headed up the corridor... there was a room with the door open... there were people inside... it was my class... and it had been there all along! Not only was I late... but I was extra extra late coz I am such a silly head. Sigh... The tables were high and my chair was low... it made drawing very difficult. And all because I was late.

The End.

hiccups...

again! I have hiccups... I had hiccups today at work which lasted for about 3 trolleys. It was embarassing, the customers must of thought I was loopy. And now here I am, hiccuping once again. Crazy, I seem to be getting them a lot these days... and they just come out of nowhere! Sneaky little things...

la la la

Last week I went and saw The Waifs and it was incredible. Next week I am going to see Ben Lee and I am excited. And that is my story...

waiting...

I am waiting for season 5 of full house to arrive, and I am getting impatient! I just want to watch it now!! Gosh, I love that show... why don't they make tv like that anymore, hey? Fingers & toes it comes soon! Thats the one bad thing about buying stuff from ebay... you have to wait for it to be delivered! Please mr. postman, look and see...

Tonight these things happened...

Tonight I experienced my first random breath test! Yeah... exciting. Looking back I am pretty sure I indicated the wrong way back onto the highway, crazy crazy. Then, I went through the mc drive-thru to get some mc frozen cokes... I ordered and paid for mc mediums, but they gave me mc larges. And yeah... that is my story!

Oh, how exciting life is...
