and as usual this retard:

Hallelujah!

I think I have finally gotten a job! Perhaps! Although these things have been known to fall through, so keep your fingers and toes crossed for me. It's as a job consultant at the Wellington branch of Student Job Search, only 31 hours a week but hey - better than the unemployment benefit. Will keep you posted...

I've also decided that I am going to move forward in the dating department. Not that I can really control this area, but that's it exactly - I don't have much to do with it, so why bother? I am officially, from this point onwards, caring less.

I may have to re-blog about this one at a later date.

i wish

I wish I had a lamborghini Galado....(sp?)

Or a ferrari enzo. Or maybe a just lots of money. My gosh unemployment gives you big dreams!

So the wedding is over - I officially have a sister-in-law, which makes Nikki my sister-in-law's sister. But I like to say I just got 6 new sisters and 2 new brothers, regardless of their law-ness and step-ness and almost-step-ness. Telling stories about your siblings when there is only one is boring. The ceremony was beautiful - I held it together and refrained from becoming the blubbering mess I usually am when I am happy, so that's good! Photo's will be on Nikki's page and we're all tagged on Chris's facebook, but my camera stayed in my bag at all times. Silly puppet. The reception was great also, I played some piano and Annabelle sang (we did Alicia Keys, No One) and Jute and Gaz seemed to really like it so that was good. This is the most boring account of a wedding ever. My creative writing skills SUCK. I think I am tired. It was an amazing day anyway.

BLAH.

I neeeeeeeeeed a job.

the curse of being female

They found Deon on Thursday morning last week. Then I cried, it's real now. RIP DEON xx.

I have 2 tests this week worth 10% each, a report to write, and big assignment to work on, and two other assignments to get started. But I am in cruise mode. Hence the blogging at 11:45pm. I totally am not motivated at all for these University assessments. Although I should be, I need top marks to study in the UK. BUT I suppose the tests are only worth 10% each, and I'm a bright cookie, I should be able to pass just from going to lectures. So I'm only going to be missing out on 5% in each subject. I can handle that.

Now that that is sorted, let's discuss my social life. Chelsea turned 22 on Saturday, and I crocheted her a neck warmer in cream and dark olive. The two buttons I sewed on cost $7 A BUTTON! they were cool, but only from Spotlight so I am still shocked at the price. The neckwarmer turned out pretty cool though, I hope she wears it. Nikki - it was made of 50% wool so you should be proud of me :-) ... I also baked Chels a carrot cake to which I added a couple of tamarillo's as well. I love tamarillo's. Loving the baked goods idea for people's presents, so handy and economical. It's my dad's birthday this Friday, but his gift is already hanging out in Wellington at my brother's house - boys, you are lucky if you have sisters, I am always hooking Gaz up with presents for the 'rents! Although he did choose this one whilst I was down there, so big ups to him. Must be growing up. Jenny (Juliet and Nikki's mum) is having her 50th this weekend as well, on the same night as Debbie's 21st. So I will be late to yours Deb! And I don't think baked goods is going to cut it for you... I will have to see what other thrifty things I can come up with... help, Nikki?

I have heartburn. I get it pretty much every night if I stay up late. I should have some Quickeze handy but I am in denial that I even get heartburn. My heart can't get burned, it's made of Stainless Steel.

So this weekend just been I got to borrow my mum's car, the berocca tablet. It is a burnt orange Kea Rio, SPORTS EDITION! WOOOOHOOOO! After a few minutes I got used to the clutch and it was actually quite nice to drive. Did good at sober driving the troops into Rotorua town and back on Saturday night. The Pig was pretty good, and Chelsea and her friends had a weird game going where two teams tried to score as many points as possible in doing these little challenges. Most of the tasks involved members of the opposite sex, so I didn't really get too involved as I'm far too conservative! This poor guy was left extremely confused after one of the girls kissed him and then promptly turned her back on him. After 10 minutes of watching him stand there trying to get her attention, I had to apologise and explain to him it was a game and that he should forget about the girl. At which point he tried it on with me, so I ran away pretty quick. He was obviously a loser just out to score, but I still felt sorry for the guy. Unfortunately we got to Lava's after 1:30am so weren't allowed in. It is lame how Rotorua clubs shut at 3am, when I make the effort to go out to town I like the clubs to stay open til 5am! Anyway, will maybe be out again next Saturday after Debbatron's 21st, will be good to see Lava's again. I don't spend much time in Rotorua these days, and the only clubs I get to see are Wellington and Auckland. and Hamilton when Stell drags me out. I guess that's actually quite a lot. Hmmm.

Last night I got to talk to my other best friend, Luke, who lives just out of the Gold Coast in Australia. I haven't really really spoken to him in a few weeks, so it was awesome to talk about what's been going on in our lives etc. I didn't have much to suss out with him, getting the scholarship has made things relatively stress free! One thing I did realise though, is how picky I am with the boys I am attracted to. Obviously I am very picky with who I get into a serious relationship with, but even the boys that I want to go on dates with are few and far between. If the guy doesn't cut it, I am just a social retard with him. I mean, more of a social retard than I normally am. Actually, maybe there's no difference in my lack of social skills, but I definitely feel really uncomfortable when my gut is telling me that he's not awesome. Some of you that have met me may be a bit confused at me calling myself a social retard. You haven't seen me around boys I like - believe it or not, I am very shy! And I am blatently honest, and like to lay my cards on the table straight up front, which often leads to me blurting out inappropriate information 2 seconds after meeting a guy. I really should try to create some mystery one of these days.

Yesterday Jenna picked me up from the busstop and we went perfume smelling. She wants a new perfume to have as well as her signature one, Miracle by Lancome. I am also planning on picking up a second signature one when I head to Melbourne, so I did some choosing of my own. Jenna was not so successful, but I came away loving Cinema. Miss Dior Cherie is nice too. When I was in Melbourne last year my cousin Anna and I went to a perfume store, and after telling him I liked vanilla and this and that, a really helpful guy brought over some perfumes for me to try. His first two that he thought I would like were Vera Wang - Princess (my current signature perfume) and Cinema. So I guess he's pretty freaken awesome at his job, because more than a year later, they are still my top 2 frangrances ever. So I will stock up on those duty free :D. Also gotta grab some feijoa 42 below vodka when I go through, can't beat it!

I think that's about it for me, I've written quite a substantial blog this evening/morning!

boys i like.... hurray! (this means any boys in my life)

this morning it came to my attention (thank you stella) that there are a number of boys i have my eye on. I feel this is not a indication of the talent i am surrounded with, but merely how my boredom leads to a roving eye. I think i like the idea of liking someone, even if i don't actually like the person themselves. Right. Let me describe the current victims of my razor blade stare.

EDIT - just realised the boys under debate will probably know i am talking about them, so have added in boys that are just my friends as well.

Boy number 1) - let's call him BN1 (creative, i know). He lives in Wellington, and has been on this list for the last 13 years. He's not really a true candidate. I just like him.

Boy number 2) - BN2 lives in Hamilton, and does Science (hurray!). He likes playing sports which is good, I like sports, and he makes me laugh.

Boy number 3) - BN3 lives in Hamilton. He is the one i am probably better friends with. Even though i don't really know him. But he is cool to talk to, so that is something.

Boy number 4) - BN4 lives in Rotorua and he is hot. Tried dating him for a while and that didn't work out, but whenever I hit the clubs in Vegas I am on the lookout for him :-)

Boy number 5) - BN5 from Auckland - this one is actually an old Boy that is not on this list anymore, but I thought it would be good to mention him as we are much better friends now i am not trying to kiss him all the time..... weirdo....

Boy number 6) - this is BN6 from Wellington - I just met him. He is very nice, and seems quite smart. Which is good. Don't really know this guy so don't have much to say about him - but definately needs to be on this list!

Boy number 7) - BN7 eats rice and peas. He sometimes showers with his clothes on. I may have made BN7 up.

Boy number 8) - BN8. He lives in Wellington, and he is tall. and pretty. and i like him.... BN8 is one of those guys that you spend a lot of time talking to, but don't really know where you stand with them.

Boy number 9) - BN9 is my favourite number. He lives in the South Island. I haven't talked to him in a few months. BN9 is from my High School, and we didn't get along that well until a few years ago. It would be cool to hang out with him more but he is so far away that i will just have to stare at him longingly.

Boy number 10) - BN10 is awesome. He lives in Wellington, but is moving soon. He is always around when I need to talk to him about stuff, and he is one of the 4 people I would say truely know me.

RIGHT. I think that is enough procrastination for one morning. I am officially assigning myself to my assignment. Oceanic Tidal Energies - here I come!

Speed-dating? Speed-Blogging!

OLA!

hello friends of mine! So my tree project is going good, my computer game is finished and i am onto writing websites, and my research project is still at a standstill. The knitting and crochet are on hold, I have two Jodi Picoult books that are half-read, and I am trying to learn Latin on the side. My room is a pig-sty (as usual), my bedsheets need washing, the clothes on my floor need putting away, my desk needs ordering, and my "craft corner" in my wardrobe needs a huge overhaul. I have a stupid assignment on tidal energy that needs doing, and I still haven't figured out how many hours I have worked so I can put my payslip in. Boys=zero.

I should probably continue with my bid to get funding for 2009-Melbourne as well.
