T- 0!!!!! IT"S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

And to be quite honest it's been not the bested most wonderfulest day ever. This is how it went:
I haven't been able to sleep in lately, and I haven't been to bed before 1am in about a week and a half, so this morning, I had nothing on... I thought I'd sleep in, especially nice because it was my birthday... NOT! 8:30, my mum calls me to wish me a happy birthday. Nice, as I had to get out of my nice warm bed to go over the cold kitchen lino to answer the phone. After she realised she'd woken me up, she got off the phone to let me get back to sleep. Good idea in thory, and would have worked in practice... If my grandparent didn't call me half an hour later. Finally got off the phone to them and started to dose off again, to be woken up around quarter to 10 by my door bell. The flower basket that my mum had sent me "so I could get something special from everyone at home on my actual birthday" had come. Not only did I have to get up for that, but I had to put some pants and a jumper on too. The basket was taller than me with the 4 helium balloons that were attached to the handle, and it had a bright pink teddy bear in it!! It's strange that my own flesh really has no idea about me. Don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful basket and I really did appreciate the gesture, but pink is not me. After that I thought "fuck it!" so I stayed up... looking back on it I was lucky to get the sleep I did considering the whole time there was road work going on outside my flat.

Got ready leisurely, and got to uni at around 12... then I started drinking... was only going to have a few as I had work that evening. 4 and a half plus a few games of pool later, it's quarter past 4 and I'm quite tiddley. By the way, work started at 5. Luckily Nathan gave me a lift. THANKS MAN!!! I really appreciated that. It was pretty good at uni actually. I got to see a few people that I hadn't seen for ages, and chilled with them and I didn't see Jacko! BONUS! But this just proves how good I was feeling... I talked to Stacy. OMG! It was all pool related tho so that's not too bad I suppose.

Work: that was fun! (said sarcastic) I was still tipsy when I started serving, but it wasn't too bad. It was only a bit of blury motor control... So not really noticeable... till I started to feel ill. Yep, the alcohol was leaving my system. I didn't throw up... which was good, considering how much I wanted to. But a few cups of water later... I was beginning to feel not bad. But right now, I still feel slightly low in body funcltionality. That's why I'm having some chicken noodle soup!!!! That stuff so rocks!

Now I'm home and chillin in a gentle way. Thanks Edward, David, Sam, Kat, Trav, Pitch and Clare for their birthday sms's. And thank u David, Simon and Chris for the drinks. Thank u nathwan 4 the beautiful keyring, and the lifesaving lift. Thanks everyone else who said happy birthday to me at uni. Thanks everyone at work for the funky birthday chocco Bavarian cheesecake (Casey wrote happy 21st on it in mini MnMs) and their birthday wishes, and thanks Sam too 4 the card.

Speaking of cards... I ot a bit freaked out when I checked my mail... I had a 21st birthday card from my local MP!!!! It's really quite unnerving! Like I have a stalker or something.

All in all, as I look back on it, it hasn't been a bad day... or maybe the warm fuzzy fixingness that chicken soup brings is kicking in. Either way... I have a smile playing on my lips... I can feel it there.
How does being 21 feel? Not that different. It's really just another day when it comes to physical feeling. But it was nice to have a lot of people focusing on me, and wishing me well. That's what feels great about ur birthday I guess. The feeling of warm fuzzy that all people crave deep down that comes from being the centre of attention. I did have fun today. I did have a nice day. I did feel special. I think I'm finally beinging to be happy with myself and my life. Which is nice of it to happen on such a milestone.

Now all that's left is the count down to my party!!!
T-2 days and counting!!!

T- 1 day and counting
Well, actually it's T-45 mins as I write this. YAY!!!! It's nearly my birthday.
I'm old but I have one prezzie already... =D YAY! and I really do love it Tim. Thank you so much... Now all I have to do is find someone to use it on ;).

Today was an interesting day. Not only was it my first real day at uni, but I went on a waxing adventure with Tim which was v. Interesting. I have just one word to say... OW! I have been waxing for a long time (I have hardly ever shaved) and I thought that I knew what to expect... But this hurt. A lot more than I'm used to. And unlike Tim, my experience was rather run of the mill. The girl gave me the towlette, and told me to "wipe down the waxing area". Then she told me how to hold my legs when Asked and she did it. The only wierd thing was the way that I had to hold my underwear and not my skin. Oh, and the fact that I got those little blood spots which proves that the follicle came out too... It may mean that the hair will grow back really fine... If at all! Whole thing was strange, that's all I can say, but still very routine as far as waxings go... Wish they did the top bit tho... Would have liked that to be a bit straighter. Oh well.

In other news-
My assignment:Got it done and handed in!
The other assignment: Got extention, and started working on it.
Work on Sunday: Leah covered it, so I have all of Sunday to recover... And I intend to use it!!!!
Love life: I'm going to die alone and be found three weeks later half eaten by Alsatians.
Tim: I apologize for taking ur colour scheme... but it was cool. Forgive me?

Happy birthday to me!

T- 3 days and counting!

Just on a break from doing my assignment that is really hard!!! I know that once I get into it, I'll be ok... but I'm having a lot of trouble starting... I always do. So I'm gonna vent for a while.
The stress isn't there yet but if there's a garbled post at 3 am or something, you know to call the guys in white.

Went out last night to church which didn't have a line up around the corner!!! And had a bit of fun. It was a pornstar party which was a laugh just to see all the people who knew about it dressed up. And some people looked quite good, if I do say so (and I include all the people I was with in that). And then there were your porn star name... Which is always a good conversation starter. But this world is too small. Started to talk to one guy. Turns out he's an ex of a girl I went to school with... In BROKEN HILL!!!! The next guy I was chatting up turned out to live in the same street as my best friend, and they even went to the same school... For god's sake (sorry) what is with the country townness of Adelaide. You're a capital city people!!!! Act like one!

It's gonna be my birthday soon!!!! YAY!

Now I've changed some things... maybe it will be accurate now (date time etc)

T- 4days (just) and counting...
happy (?) ANZAC day. May those who have gained, remember who helped them, and may those who have lost, keep them alive through memory. Thank you for all you have done to keep us safe.

OMG it's so close. I'm gonna be old soon! Good news, I have the Saturday off work. Bad news, I have to work Thursday (my birthday) and Sunday (the day after celebration) EEEEK!!! Will not be able to do Sunday shift... Hopefully someone will cover that for me... I hope!

Am really quite stressed to. Have major assignment to do and it's not really going that well... I just hope I'll Be able to get shitloads of it done today.

Went out to highlander last night. Was my first time, and it wasn't too bad considering. But full of creepy old guys who go all out to leer over you and stuff. That's a bit icky. And there was a bitch there... but that's another story...
Went and played pool during night too. Was shit. Nearly got pantsd. Never good, I was so not on form... But Tim gets warm fuzzy. =) I blame the size of the balls (they prolly sleep around). But music was good. And seeing friend drunk even better. All in all not a bad night.

T - 7 days and counting.

Getting the plans organised. Getting people together, letting them know about it and where to be etc. But I'm finding out that most of my close friends are going to be late there... yay *sarcasm*. =( oh well, at least they will be there I guess. Also I'm starting to worry about tension between friends that is beyond my control, but I know I'm gonna feel responsible for keeping the peace, cause if they aren't having fun, I won't.

Hmm. Maybe I'm just trying to find a distraction from this assignment I've been trying to do... but kinda not... Oops. Oh well, I'll get it done on time... I will!

T -8days and counting

Yes, it's 8 days until my 21st birthday, and T - 10 days till the celebration!!!
I can't wait! But at the same time it makes me feel old... :(

Anyway. This site will countdown the days, recap the fun and chaos that will ensue, and basically give me a way of feeding an impulse of putting my private life into the public eye with no connections.
You've got to love the internet, a great way to feed perversions of all kinds.

For those that love to see into peoples lives... Bon appetite. Enjoy my posts.
For my friends. Maybe this will remind you that I do actually exist and am not an image of fantasy (which means that I don't have a leather/vinyl corset in REAL life... but you can keep that bit if you like) :)

Welcome to my world.
