when people say that i look sad, they are wrong.

i want everyday.. to be as carefree as sunny sunday..



spent at mission bay..adorable ^-^ mochas and blueberry muffins with lucy jane..

Everything has totally just gotten on top of me after today.. it was not the best.

A load of uni work suddenly due, that I just cannot wrap my head around.

Extra hours at work, although I do need the money.

Something from 'the past' (I guess you could say) caught me totally off guard.. just when you think things are all good it comes back at you to make life that little bit harder. Thats why I cannot sleep and am up blogging about it. This mysterious 'it' - that I cannot say what it is and I can't stop thinking about, should really be the LAST thing on my mind! ARGH.

I want all the male species whom are suddenly showing interest in me.. that I have no interest in whatsoever, to quit trying. You will know if I am interested.. I don't hold back. I will not text you 'up' or reply to sleazy messages. Just so you know.

I only like my boy mates.

So because of my downer day, retail therapy was what I needed. I got the Paul Smith Floral Perfume. Mmm yum!

It is a lovely evocation of the 70's 'Flower Power' spirit. With water lilly, orange, pink grapefruit and ginger and a unique blend of magnolia, orchid and osmanthus blossom.

Oh, how could I forget..

Lucy brought me the cutest little russian chocolates.

My sisters 16th is comming up.

I had a giant vanilla latte today.

I am getting paid to paint a picture.

I talked to my mum today.

Life isn't really all that bad.. even when the bad moments hit.

Really looking forward to this weekend!

On the agenda:

Partying!

Work.

Shopping!

Homework.

"one day I sat thinking, almost in despair; a hand fell on my shoulder and a voice said reassuringly; cheer up, things could be worse. So I cheered up, and sure enough.... things got worse"

taking life as it comes is probably the only way to get through it.

I've felt no inspiration as of late to post anything new.. so heres a little update of my life.

Just had my first week back of uni. My course has got to be one of the best out there! Spending all day.. and time in between classes with my two school besties..

Nikkolai and Maryam.

Wednesday night..

Jess has just moved to Auckland so she wanted to go to town..

Lucy and I decided to take her...

After quite a decent effort in an early start to drinking.. we were ready to party. Yes I am spastic.

We met up with Nikkolai and Char. Downed a few jugs. Not sure we needed it, but we were convinced.

Absolutely fantastic night!

Thursday night: AUT 'O' week gig.

Me and Lucy had to literally force ourselves to drink.. When we acually made it to our friends party in town, everyone was already in a pretty decent way. So we had to down it, and FAST.

Amazing. Amazing. AMAZING night. Char and Lucy know how to party!

Before I go..

I miss this girl..

"life might not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here.. we should dance"

"I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck."

the cutest things are generally those that are not real

In the English-speaking countries, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other.

I painted this as a gift on Valentines Day this year. Thought I would share... considering the fact that love is just NOT something I have right now.

"Some of the greater things in life are unseen thats why you close your eyes when you kiss, cry, or dream..."

the common british term; fairycake. i wanna call them that.

Holidays are ALMOST over!

I spent a week with my cousins.

This one day.. we baked cupcakes.

This is the use of the name that has persisted, and the name of "cupcake" is now given to any small cake that is about the size of a teacup. The name "fairy cake" is a fanciful description of its size, which would be appropriate for a party of diminutive fairies to share.

“Friends are like cupcakes in my pantry of memories.”

they never know what to do with the chaos we like to bring with us

Most amazing weekend spent back home with my girls.

Friday: causing chaos in our small hometown bar.

Missing the chair. Trying to light an old fire. 'Do you feel awkward?'. Ripping posters off the walls. Drinking in the skatepark.

Just doing what we do best; providing a little entertainment.

Saturday: leaving catch-up.

Coffee and dessert. Crashing highschool hall parties. Redbull. Spontanious clubbing.

LOVE.

Here are just a few photos documenting antics of my weekend:
