Hello!

Did you miss me?


I have a new blog now...


http://readingbyabooklight.blogspot.com/


and a new twitter account : https://twitter.com/booklight88


not sure what the new blog will be, but mostly it will be book reviews and stuff like that :D

find me over there!~

oh how long it has been

Do not worry fair readers (all three of you) I am still alive. While it is almost 12.00am, I shall regale you with things i have accomplished.

1. I finished all my school work and sent it off
2. I'm left with money in my bank account and food in the freezer, fridge and tub on the floor.
3. I bought a cookbook (only cos it had a yummy cake on the cover)


Though I did all this in ONE day, it brings me to wonder, what will tomorrow hold? Welll....

I could clean my room (started at 2.ooam yesterday morning...)

I could go hang out in the city

Or

I could sleep all day.

I could also go and get my tongue pierced, or buy myself a present (helloooo classic!)


I don't know what I'm going to do tomorrow. The possibilities are endless really. I found some paints I'd bought awhile back, i could do some watercolour painting... just have to buy some better brushes. I might just relax tomorrow. Do nothing, and read a book, listen to music, do some painting and crotchet some more.

Sounds like bliss to me.

what would you do on your next day off?

I dont normally do this but...

I'm trying to sell my phone to buy a new one. I majorly cracked it with my phone and I want a new one. Does anyone want to buy a Nokia 6300? It looks something like this:





Leave a comment and I will email you with the price and specs. I still have the box and the instruction book. Its a good phone I'm just annoyed with it and want a change. Bought it about Jan/ Feb this year.

Dear Potential New Friends

As I do not know you yet, please let me provide you with my ground rules.

1. Do not be unnecessarily rude to me, unless in jest. This includes calling me names or implying something mean about me or something i hold dear.

2. Do not call me repeatedly and if I don't pick up, leave a message and I may get back to you.

3. I can take a joke, but only if its funny

4. Don't crowd me

5. Do not ask for money

6. You will not be allowed to my house for at least 4 months, I must get to know you better

7. Do not ask to use my phone, if you have used all of your credit, why would i let you use mine?

8. Do not ask to have a taste of my food if you see me with some, its rude and leaves me hungry. If I'm full i might offer you some.

9. Do not equate your life circumstances to mine, we have been raised by different people and lived different lives

10. if you are lucky enough to be invited into my house, don't yell, don't have arguments on msn on my computer, don't eat all my food and if you are bored GO HOME.


In return I will,

1. Listen to your problems

2. Go out for coffee with you

3. Not give unwanted advice

4. Tell you when your butt looks big in that

5. Not trash talk your loser boyfriend

6. Not ring your phone unless its urgent

7. Not expect anything from you

8. Wont ask to borrow anything off you

9. Will be polite and keep my trashy mouth to a minimum

10. Possibly lend you something.


Take these rules into account and we might have the beginning of a beautiful friendship. If not you weren't worth my time in the first place. I give only one chance, fuck it up and I'll let you go.

Regards

Christine

HELLLLOOOOOO ANYONE OUT THERE???

1. the course is going well. Already snowed under, cant wait for it to be overrrrrrrr!!!

2. hopefully seeing transformers 2 this weekend

3. Hell has frozen over, well... half over. The flatmate removed the coke can from the Shower, only to replace it with ....



you guessed it. Another one. Only this time its a red one. Similar to this ....

http://www.redstaplerchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/cokecan.jpg


so if someone wants to photoshop the black can out and the red can in... go for it! Still working on the counter for it, the one i found didnt work and the one Dam Buster told me about i couldnt figure out... (its been a long week)


So i shall leave ya hanging!!!


btw, as for the organisation.. Ya not so much. Oy.

And then there was....

Things are gonna be pretty quiet around here for a little while. The course is going great :) I'm loving every freaking minute of it. I have lots of homework and will soon have Placement. This means i wont be able to be on here as much :( I need to get organised (see previous post OY!) and I need to work my pretty little ass off.

I also got rid of the pile of clothes in the corner of the pic, and after grocery shopping I will see how much money I have left and I might bring home a new member of the family... Tommy The Tub. :P

But anyhoo i need to go get my groceries and then do some cookin, so i will see you all on the flip side :)

As requested... before pics!

Some of this is mess yes... but the rest is sh** i mean stuff i need to organise.

ORGANISATION!!!

If you find cleaning boring, or dont want a long winded read, please come back soon.


My room is so disorganised. Seriously, i cant find anything. I store my packaged food in my room, so it wont get eaten by others and so i always know what i have. I have GAZILLIONS of plush toys stuffed in the top of my wardrobe. I have a metal bookcase that holds my penguin collection, books, dvds and on the bottom shelf is random pages and important documents that dont have homes. i keep buying things for when i move out, such as mugs and kitchen utensils and they have no home. I frequently lose the important documents I need.

I when i bought my bed I got a free set of kitchen appliances; Toaster, kettle ect. They are currently hiding under my bed, which is a great place for them, if i could get to them. I have a large suitcase filled with air that if i could get it under the bed would be a great place to store the things i buy for my house.

I have what i have seen called a "floordrobe" i cannot get into my wardrobe to put my clothes away due to the amount of clothes i have.

THIS IS ALL GOING TO CHANGE!!

I have worked out that when my life is messy, so is my room. I aim to change this. Starting this week I am getting my life and room back in order. First order of business is a storage unit, something like this :



I plan to put food in the top one (all in individual containers of course) towels and face washers in the second, laundry detergent and all that related stuff in the third drawer and other random stuff in the top.

If i can afford it, I will go to the reject shop and get some pretty boxes of all shapes and sizes (and just realised theres a 6!! drawer thing i want for 40 bucks, me thinks thats coming home with me this week, it will help with other things i need to do to organise stuff) I need boxes for dvds and other stuff that doesnt have a home. Also on the plus side i can put the TV on top of the drawers and finally unpack the boxes that have been sitting there since we moved last December.

So thats the plan for this week! Lets get organised!!

Update!!

I have to run and get packed as i am going to the bf's for the weekend so this quickie will have to satisfy :P

1. i start my childcare course on monday, silly me has lost her timetable (its in my room somewhere) and so i havent been able to sort placement... whoops.

2. the flatmare and the evil gf are still the same. lets just leave it at that. (though i have gotten the tv more often)

3. my health hasnt been terrible lately (touch wood) havent felt sick or anything. weirdly for me.

4. Mums birthday was on the 8th, i went halves (i am a poor jobseeker after all DONT JUDGE ME :P) in her present. Its a Cars (childrens movie) doona/blanket thing. i knew she'd love it and she wants it, so i now have to wrangle a GIANT post pack down the street like an idiot. oh wells. I prolly made her look like an idiot when i was a kid, it must be nice to get revenge.

5. I finished the series of books i was ready, Merry Gentry series by Laurell K Hamilton. Now what am I gonna read? Borders has 5 books by Kathy Reichs for 45 bucks, maybe that one. considering i spent about 70 bucks on three books in a week......... *blush*

6. I cant stop listening to Paramore. Im thinking of taking stuff off my mp3 player and just loading it up with Paramore. damn geek crushes. hehe

so how are you??

I dont know why i bother asking anymore, so instead i grab my camera.

Yeah, Bathroom again. I have no idea. Flatmate and his GF are here. *rolls eyes* Your guess is as good as mine... FYI I bought him that bear.

Another award!

Carma is getting many awards and so she hands them on. :D I am not complaining! This is the most recent one.. isnt it pretty?

Thanks Carma :)

This is what happened...

The flatmate came home (will now on be called the flat mare or FM for short.) I said to him i was gonna cook some food. He said cool as long as you clean up after yourself. He then went on to say that If i left something sitting around he'e either throw it out or into my room. He also said that he was going to be the cleaning nazi. I tried to defend myself by saying, i dont leave stuff around until he does, (which is true) to which he replied that no i dont, and I dont help him clean i just leave. He also said that he hasnt seen me clean more than i needed for the meal i was about to cook. It was at about that stage that i was in such an amount of shock that i nodded and fled back into my room. I later realised that he was serious about the throwing out/into my room, because i bought lunch yesterday and left the container in the sink soaking, I was planning on cleaning it when i cleaned everything else when i made dinner that night. I thought later, hang on i havent washed it so where has it gone? He's thrown it. No warning, no asking me why it was there, hes just thrown it out.


I admit that I am not a cleaner. My room will attest to that, and yes i have been going off to the boy's place because HELLO I DONT WANT TO BE HERE!! I will defend myself by saying, that I try to not use much. I have my own coffee mug and plastic cup. I also do not use much because I am never!! here. I am normally at the boys every 2 nd night. One night home, one night at his, one night home. that kinda thing.

This rant and insults came out of the blue. I knew he was annoyed with the mess but it wasnt all mine. I know his GF is coming down on saturday and going home next sunday (oh joy... not) and he wants the house clean for her.


A friend came over last night and we cooked two meals (quesadas and shepards pie) and then washed everything. we were in my room looking at my computer, when my phone rang, (it was the boy) I went out of my room and the FM had the audacity to wave at me... Yeah i'm still pissed. He thinks he's won because we cleaned up. He doesnt realise that when the time is right I'm not going to tell him i'm moving, he'll just come home one day to find me gone. I'm sad the friendship has come down to this, but its not all my fault.

and then...

so i pulled up this page, with every intention to write something. but as i sit here in tears because of the flatmate i am filled with the desire to do one thing:

GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.

CANDY!!

isnt it yummy? the love heart sherbet thing is gone, as is the curly wurly and chomp and so are the fads. I wanted candy!!

blog changes

As you can see, I have changed my blog. Still more to come! Wait and see!!
