Hello my dears,
How are we all? Hopefully doing better than me

*Life
-Life is breezing along nicely. There have been a few hiccups, but after huge consideration, they're probably for the better. I like to meet new people.
-I have the flu. The plain, boring, ordinary flu. It kinda sucks, because I cannot breathe through my nose, so have to eat with my mouth open (I hope I put a pretty picture in your mind).
-Also, not trying to burden you with my problems do not fret, I lost one of my best friends this week. He's not dead or anything, we just had a very, very huge fight. One that people don't usually recover from. But thankfully there are other friends to be friends with... I hope.
-I am getting a new phone within the next 2 weeks. Either an iPhone or a Blackberry or a Pre. I am quite looking forward to this addition to my phone family!

*Art
-There are a few things on my list I wish to do. Such as underwater photography. My brother has this old underwater camera from years and years ago, and if it still works... then you shall be seeing some great stuff I'm also pretty sure it's not digital, so I'll have to go back in time to get the stuff developed.
-Also, in art at school I have recently been doing a few abstract paintings. I brought my experiments home, and may take a few snapshots and put them in my scraps. My big official piece is staying at school until the end of the year to be marked and everything.
-One more thing: I'm doing a shoe series soonish. Photography, this is. And it shall be good

*Craft
-After venturing into the beautiful world of ickle & Lardee, I reckon you guys should have a look-see, too. It is easily one of the cutest things I have ever seen, and it would be a pity for you to not experience it. If that made any sense. Go to > [link] to join the adventure.
-I am currently in the process of sewing lots of material to life. Mostly pillow cases and bags, but I will also do an apron. Hopefully I will get the chance to transform an old chair we have, into a beautiful and quaint little thing to put in the studio apartment for whomever will live there (I get to design the entire interior, and make the art for the walls... spiffing!)

*Music
-An album you really can't miss out on is "Music For Men" by The Gossip. Triple J have made it their feature album for the week and I'm really digging it. Heavy Cross was the first single released from the album, and if you've heard it and liked it, you'll love the rest of the album
-Right this very second I am listening to Kiss With A Fist by Florence And The Machine. It has very very very awesome lyrics. I vote you check it out here > [link] The opening words: You hit me once, I hit you back; You gave a kick, I gave a slap; You smashed a plate over my head, Then I set fire to our bed
-My friend dropped by today and gave me a CD by My Escapade. They're a Christian band from around Burnie somewhere... and they're pretty good. Long story short: I "accidentally" pocketed said friend's iPod but didn't know it was his. After giving it back, I asked who the band was. He told me the name, and now (somehow) I have ended up with their EP. If you have time for good music, visit > [link]

*Fashion
-Last night I visited the big box in the garage that is chock-full of fabric and various materials. I'm practicing my sewing "skills" currently, and when I feel confident I will attempt a summer dress
-I have discovered this lovely store in the internet world of fashion. Alpha60. They have a load of cool shit. Plus the intro to the site is kinda insane Quite expensive stuff, but extremely good quality. I vote SAVE UP! Here is the link > [link]
-And we have enough time for one more fashion thing. GoldenHook. Don't have your own granny to knit you a beanie? Well, here is a site that lets you personalise your own beanie, and then choose which granny you want to knit it for you. . How cool is that??? I heaps want one. Though, it too is rather expensive. It'd be something to boast about though Plus Samir, the little boy who pops up all over the site, is so cute You can find this 'business' here > [link]

*Laugh
-Ross Noble. Funny as hell. He was recently on GNW (Good News Week). If you live in Australia and were honored enough to laugh so hard watching Ross last week, I feel ya. My cheeks are still sore; probably because I watched the repeat last night . If you're looking for a laugh > [link]
-Heard of Kate Miller Heidke? Classically trained, piano playing goddess, Kate is one in a BILLION. I have never heard anything else like her. Also, she has a sense of humor... I listened to her new song R U Fucking Kidding Me, which is about Facebook. If this has peaked your interest, you can find her here > [link] Her cover of Walking On A Dream is also damn good!!

This has turned out to be quite long. More like a blog rather than a journal. But I like it I like sharing my world of discoveries with people who are in a similar mind-frame as me. Enjoy it all you beautiful+wonderful humans, expect another 'informative' journal like this in another week or two or three

Take care of yourselves and your loved ones
