old school

Dear world (or should I say Eduina)
I know I catch onto things late but I promise this really is the best song at the moment

Anyway, I've had a pretty busy past few weeks, including a trip to Sydney which was really lovely, although my favourite place was the suburb of the boy I stayed with, called Tamarama, next to Bondi. Lovely street corner cafes, flowery streets, and an amazing walk down all these old steps through jungle to get to the beach.
Random events have continued to happen of course, including wasabi pourers exploding while servings me

and first poking in the eye, then kneeing in the jaw the most amazing boy in the world.

but upsides - i have finished my degree bar exams! and i got some excellent shoes and vest.

Happier Times

Yay getting back into sketchin! quick one of my back... hard to see though:




Last night was so strangely fun. I dressed up wearing my mum's chanel frack pants with boots and went to a crazy student "unclassifiable art" exhibition with my girlfriends. I think peole thought I was a bit of a fruitcake. There was a cat den amongst other strange things. Totally the epitome of what you'd imagine wanky experimental art to be (picture androdgynous couple beating on a drum, tapping on a keyboard and chanting strange things into a microphone while huge cats flashed on the screen behind them) but still kinda fun.







We then rollercoastered to Sister Bellas where I ran into my exboyfriend with his exgirlfriend before me- ironic because my boyrfiend after him (now ex) is too hanging out with his ex before moi again.. and I did the dumping both times and am totally lonelyyyy.  Finally we went over the bridge to Altona to retrieve my dad's hat. We were so scared we were going to get shot, we kept screaming every time we reached a dark street haha! I drove home alone and saw a fox carrying a swan right next to Albert Park lake.. crazy.

Today the only thing that got me through work was people's admiration of being able to pull off my new fav thing- tops backwards. Today I wore a cardigan backwards. It was fun.




So in order to cheer up I decided to stay in home alone on a Thurday night and buy myself Pad Thai (my new obsession) and ate what was evidently a meal for 2 as they gave me 2 sets of chopsticks. Best ever. Then I watched a bit of Blue Velvet and danced around my room to spastic music such as whatchadoin.. best medicine ever! And just in time for the weekend.... dum dum dummmmm

terrible tuesdays

I wish there was a support group with a buddy I could call each time I get the idiotic urge to go to Revolver. They will be prepared for it, whether it be 11pm or 11am, and they will remind me that not only is it filled up with the most undesirable people on earth, I inevitably smell from the night before, I don't need to waste the money, the music is shocking, and running into people there is never okay. And, above all, if they could remind me exactly how soul destroying the following day is.

Upside: big weekend weight loss- stems yeww!




On a sunny day we picniced in the park and were joined by a girl who ate all our chocolate spiders and salt and vinegar chips.


Friday night I met an Albanian bartender with a lovely smile. He asked for my phone number. He has now called around 20 times. F.R.E.A.K.

In other news! Last week I finally saw the Dali exhibition which was amazing. I was so lucky my friend was too sick to come in the end, because I got picked out by a security guard to skip the line and enter for free! For those who missed it they must watch the collab between Dali and Disney- magnificent

 My last bit of news is that I completed a folio course in prep for my application to interior design. It turned out to be the prep class for the tafe course but it was still so great to get back into the creative frame of mind.. crappy quality photos
