Where I stand, Where I stood

Citrus tarts, lights and other lovely bits and bobs are making up my summer so far. Was going to the beach today in my DIY everything, but then work stood in the way. My life right now is consumed by work work and more work. New Years Eve! My last post for this year. This year.. I'm thankful for everything. new friends, new schemes, new everything! It's been good. I've learnt not to settle for things I know are wrong, and standing up for everything I believe in. This year was really a turning point for me in life, and I think I have all my lovely friends to thank for that.

Gloria Jeans Citrus tarts are the best things ever to enter my digestive system since nutella and lamingtons.. or nutella lamingtons. :-)

My secondary family this year has given me so much this year for Christmas.. it's amazing! They're given me two sets of fairy lights now! One of those shake lava lamp things, and a Canon Printer! They are honestly the best set of people I know. Fairy lights are the last photo. They're flat silicon cubes and are a really nice orange tint colour.

What I was in this morning when I was going to Bondi, and then I got called into work. My life really does consist of many failed operations and what not. I hate my uneven tan on my arms.. my elbows are so dark and otherwise my skin is a different shade of.. light? q_q

Hooray for my dumb sister who stuck pads all over my table.. and super glued the ones I can't take off. She's the epitome of evil.

Anyway, this year has been freaking amazing thanks to everybody who's been apart of my life. Anywho, what I want you all to take into the new year is anything is for you to know where you stand in life and where you want to stand. If you work out where you want to be, and pursue it, and become the citizen of society you want to be, there is no way in the world you can't, or won't be able to. We all have the capacity to do great things. I hope 2011 will be the beginning of those great things for the greater of you.

So that's it. 2010 is over. It's time for us to leave all the shit that's been clinging on us like herpes and "ride a unicorn into 2011" - fartissica I hope you all enjoy the fun and displays of money exploding in the sky tonight or whenever you may experience such joys. And thanks for the great year for Eugene and Yen. :-) See you on the other side! :-)

Happy Asian Boxing Day

I hope all my wonderful readers had an awesome Christmas. Christmas is probably one of the best times of the year. Friends and family gather, and you have an amazing time. Boxing day was awesome this year. Every single year since I was a little fetus, the Asians in my area gather for a giant belated Christmas party that is amazing, fun and automatically becomes apart of our lives - even if it is your first time ever there.

Whether it be playing with dogs, playing Pictionary, drawing Pads on pictionary (lol) or just eating homemade Christmas cookies and just talking, I love spending time with friends and family on these occasions. :-)

I've been really tired these past couple days. Christmas Day > Boxing Day > Friends House and was meant to go out today as well, but decided against it. Slept in until 12 today! Hooray! I worked last night as well, (Hell yes double pay for public holiday) and I'm working New Years Eve as well. 2010 as a whole has been lovely to me, in comparison to other people, and I don't think I'm in any position to argue or purport how shit my life is, because it isn't. I have a wonderful, fucking amazing friend support network and a awesome life right now.

Thank you to all the friends I've made this year, and all the little bitches you've all had to endure from my mouth. I love you all. And I also love my purchases this year.. but my wardrobe thinks otherwise. It keeps vomiting up random bits of clothing that I didn't even know I existed. Otherwise, thanks 2010.. You've been extraordinary.

Happy Festivus/Merry Christmas

As semi- promised here is a dodgy looking outfit post, just before Christmas! 2 hours and 53 before Christmas, here I am, after getting an early mark from work, sitting here in my room, look at a screen blogging. Life doesn't get more alone than this sometimes. Anyway. Wearing this is 25 degree heat in semi-country Australia is another way of overheating and dying. Even though the material in what I'm wearing is really thin and comfortable, Australian heat really takes a toll on the average dark lord.

Oh, the lights above, are the fairy lights. I just liked how they looked like the Southern Cross so I put it on. lol.

Floral Ditsy Shirt: Forever 21/ 21Men , Purple Base Shirt: Giordano , DIY Jean Cut-offs: Thrifted (Levis) , Navy socks : Market , Black Brogue Shoe: Urban Outfitters.

Speaking of the Southern Cross, there was an Eclipse a couple nights back. I had a tonne of photos, but I really can not be bothered to upload them all seeing as though I'm capped, and the day I'm uncapped is NEXT MONTH. My life really sucks elven tears.

I love how half my self timer photos aren't in focus. I have to manually focus, use live view, do the perfect focus in the little white square thing that defines the focus and then bolt 1000000 meters away from my camera because it doesn't twist and change focal length. I also love how these shorts look like my fly is constantly undone because the zip is stuck together like a motherfairy and the cover bit is a little crapped up.But besides me being horribly unfocused, YAY.

So this is meant to be my Festive/Christmas outfit, but I really don't own much Red or Green or anything that resembles those colours. I really need to buy things that resembles more festive colours other than my own palette. Anyway, hope you all have an AMAZING Christmas tomorrow. Enjoy it with your family and friends and don't hate on each other too much. It'll ruin the birth of Jesus.. and the fun if you're not Catholic/Christian etc. :-) See you all after this Festive Season.

Formal Planning

Is it too early to troll online stores to find my formal outfit because I don't want the generic, fucked up black suit and what not?

Above purchases available from Alexander McQueen , which may I add is extremely amazing when it comes to formal wear.. just a little (maybe verging on A LOT) too expensive for me. Alexander McQueen merchandise is just too amazing to pass up, but I'll need to see which fits into my budget, I really don't want to spend over $300, $200 if I can on formal. Considering I doubt my parents would pay for my formal gear. Eh.

Anyway, have fun, Christmas in three days! Have a lovely festive season.

Hidden Truth

After the recent collapse, fall and destruction of my wardrobe which took 3 hours to put back in place, my room is completely renovated. New Lights, new book shelf, and new wardrobe layout. It's closing into Christmas and everything is kinda rushed right now; helping friends do things for Christmas yadiyadayada. Here's just a photo spam of what I could conjour up in between the havoc and chaos of the holiday season, I'm terribly sorry half of them aren't in focus.. I promise you better photography next post. Btws: The Terracotta soldier exhibit in Sydney is amazing!

How extraordinary are these boots. I really want a pair of desert boots. I found a pair at Myer I could buy with my Christmas gift card.. (from 2009!) but they didn't have my god.damn.size. Story of my life.

The Highlands

Yay! So living where I live, there isn't much to do except go out for a movie, lunch and then go thrifting! Which keeps me busy for the summer holidays.. which is a good thing. Hehe.

I really like the picture above that Lily took. Except I'm doing the whole mosaic-out-the-face again because foul cannot even explain how I looked in that picture. But for the sake of a beautiful picture, I must do it! :-)
So we went to see Harry Potter.. again.. for the third time! it's the last week showing, so you should all go see it if you havn't.. it is really worth it. Last showing is Christmas Eve. :-) After that we ventured off into the midst of town where we sat down and ate Pizza and drank lemon drinks, chai lattes and ate a $3 macaron.. which was totally worth it..

Lily has the most amazing rings.. she got them all in Florence.. and for all you little gremlins who don't know where that is, it's in Italy. I was in Japan last holidays and she was in Europe! So it kind of worked out well otherwise I'd be left alone (forever alone) with nothing to do for the whole holiday :-)

I really wanted to buy a pair of shoes from the Smith Family.. but they were $20 and i could do so much better.. these brown shoes were amazing. But I didn't buy them.

This pair is from Salvos.. the black pair is so amazing.. but I already have a pair exactly like it. Hehe which I got from Urban Outfitters a while back. I hate living on a budget, the only things I got where a dolphin pin for 50c and a sky blue checkered shirt for $1. Argh. After buying my silly camera I'm now broke.. to the max :-(

PS: Weather hasn't been very nice to me.. so now Outfit Posts just yet. Will true to squeeze one in either before Christmas or just after.. and also.. nearly 40,000 page views!
