Oh my Gooooood, SNOOOOOOW!

It totally just snowed, it's like 12 degrees (celsius) and I swear it snowed, some people probably say it's hail, but I'm pretty sure that tiny, thin hail and lots of it is snow.

Me and my brother just ran around taking photos of all the "snow" and the mist! Enjoy the craziness.

It's like a Winter Wonderland!

I took off my shoes to go through the water to get this, I literally could not feel my toes.

Legit snow, you guys. I believe this is snow.

SNOOOOW!

AHHHHH!

Pretty sure this has never happened in Brisbane before. It's not even Winter and it's snowing!! I'm so excited for it to get colder!

After running around like idiots taking photos of snow, I at in a desk chair bobbing back and forth excitedly, eating pizza for like an hour. This is how excited I am!

I spent my day not studying, really should have, but instead me and my bro went shopping and then took pictures of snow. It was awesome!

P.s. I just realised this is my 304th post. Wooh!

I am going to kill you.

Grrrrrgh!!! Rawrrgh!

Frikkin' eBay is the most annoying thing ever! It's taken me like half an hour to find my saved sellers and I still can't find it. I looked on the eBay help thing and it was all "go to 'My eBay' > 'Activity' > 'Organise'." THERE IS NO ORGANISE!

What?!

My God, eBay, you're not making it easy on yourselves. I'm getting ready to write an angry letter and my angry letters are fierce, you do not want that.

I remember last time, I couldn't find saved sellers either and it took me ages to figure out where it was and I was like "Now you remember where this was, Ellie. You don't want to get all ragey again."

Argh. Bitch, please! Why do you do this to me, eBay? You know what? I'm going to stop capitalising the 'B' in ebay. Take that, you smug bastards.

Look at all the things!

Look at all my hard work! This took me a surprising amount of time and it's still not finished, but I'm give up for a bit because Blogger pisses me off so much sometimes! So it will be fixed, but I think the links work, so that's good.

Aaaand, check it, you can now post things from my blog on twitters! Wooh! Not that it's at all useful with my three followers, but possibly in the future? Oh well...

Tada!

I am going to make a delicious sandwich and it is going to be awesome.

I had an awesome day today. I went to the markets and bought heaps (HEAPS) of fudge, like, we're talking four bags of fudge here. And I also bought some super cheap vegetables (the best kind of vegetables) and delicious bread. It is so delicious, you can't even comprehend just how delicious this bread is.

Garlic and Rosemary bread.


BreadMan at the markets and his stall of awesomeness

My reaction



It's amazing. I'm not sure what I would do if garlic and rosemary bread didn't exist. The joy in my life would be gone, the anticipation that at some point in my future I will be eating garlic and rosemary bread would be gone.

People who have not had this particular mixture of herbs and dough need to try this. You need to go out and buy some of this bread or make some or just smash some garlic and rosemary into regular bread, I don't care! You just need to try it.


P.s. what's the deal with the amazingness that is fudge? Can it get anymore amazing, I don't think so.

Am I bleeding? No. No, that's just oxide

Oh the joys of doing art and also being a bit clumsy. Do I ever really know if it's blood or iron oxide? No, I don't.


What's worse is if it's either, I'll lick my finger and clean it off whatever body part it is on and I don't know if I can re-lick my finger because I'm pretty sure oxide is poisonous and you shouldn't ingest it.

I am going to write a story. I will! Don't try and stop me.

And I'm a master procrastinator, you see, so I'm procrastinating writing this, even though I want to. That's just how good I am.


It's just starting something new is hard! Expectations and stuff!

So my friend, Ell, gave me some pretty sick advise in the way of writing a story, she said "Let your imagination take over, who cares what anyone else wants your story to be, this is your story, it doesn't have to make sense!" (I may have paraphrased because I can't remember what she actually said, but it was as, if not more, inspirational as that was).

So I'm just going to write random stuff and hope it becomes somewhat interesting (very similar to how I blog). Pretty sure it's going to be romantic/mystery/angst/possibly horror. I actually haven't decided on any of those, but there will be romance and also something strange happening to main character girl, that may or may not include a murder or two.


I feel like I should be doing something important (how I feel when I'm procrastinating), but it's weird because it's expectation and anticipation rather than dread...so why aren't I writing?!

I don't know. I find that blogging usually helps me start writing something, hopefully this will work.

Shout out to my home boy (girl), Ell for her awesome advice and entertaining me in English/BOM/SOR and also not being completely (I use that loosely) freaked out when I draw her after I've finished my English/BOM/SOR exams. It's not my fault, she always sits the perfect distance from me.

I'm gonna go write me some romantic/mystery/angst/horror craziness.


I might let you guys read it, who knows?

Oh my God, State of Origin, I am shaking with excitement

Nope.

My Dad is, I am not.

My Dad, my brother and his friend are currently shouting at the TV. They know the players can't hear them, right? It doesn't seem like it...


Football is stupid. Getting mad at someone for going for a different team from you is stupid. Stop being stupid, people, it's getting annoying.

Listening to The Police whilst procrastinating on your English assignment is not stupid (kinda), less ridiculous than watching grown men wearing hot pants throw a ball at each other.

In other news (update with me and humorous things that have happened to me),
- My boyfriend hit me in the face with a tennis ball today. Young love, so sweet! -
- I'm going to start doing Yoga with my friend, Tash, at the Relaxation Centre (place that somewhat crazy people go to hang out with other somewhat crazy people and be hippies)
- I've been thinking about what people I know, that do not read my blog, would think if they started reading it after I died or something. I think they would be like "Well...I was not expecting her to be so insane."
- I've done something to my eye and now the eyelashes at the far right side of my right eye feel like they're sticking together, but their not. Disconcerting.
- I'm listening to All of the Lights by Kanye ft. a whole lot of people (many that I wasn't expecting when I first heard it) and it's awesome. How awesome is the video? I love that it says "may cause seizures", I think it legit would. Love the bit where Kanye is standing on the police car singing about cop lights and street lights.


So great.

- I should be doing my English assignment, but I really don't want to, I'd much rather listen to rap and write on my blog, so I am
- Last night was the first night in weeks that I didn't need to do any work (I've now discovered that I actually should have been doing work, but whatevs)
- I am currently obsessed with The Beatles, more so than usual, anyway.
- Me and Boyfriend like the exact opposite music/TV/everything ever. Not sure how that's going to work out for us...
- found out Boyfriend doesn't like bread, causes me to believe there is something physically wrong with him
- My EPP teacher is insane, but I already knew that, just letting you know that she death stared a student when they tried to ask a question. Totally normal.
- She Loves You is my current favourite Beatles song (or maybe Hello, Goodbye)
- The new Pirates of the Caribbean is really long and not that great

There were, however, some pretty scary mermaids

And that's pretty much it.

Baking always puts me in a good mood

I just baked like three dozen chocolate chip cookies in the hopes of becoming memorable to my Study of Religion teacher, my brother bought her an oxfam goat for a third world village, I baked amazing (hopefully) cookies. And I'm also going to give some to my now boyfriend (tehe!) and my friends...because I accidentally made like three dozen and I can't eat three dozen cookies in the amount of time it takes for cookies to expire.

I probably should have been working on my assignments and not baking cookies, but cookies make me a lot happier than assignments ever will. Oh, cookies, I love you forever.

Check it:
Cookies

More cookies

Even more cookies.

I literally made three dozen cookies by accident. What is wrong with me?

Seriously, guys? Seriously?


When did I write about creepy furbies?! Why do you weird people keep reading my blog? Don't get me wrong, read to your hearts content...it's a bit creepy, though.

And what's with the neighbours again? I thought we already discussed this.

Whatevs, I'll write about creepy furies soon.

P.S. I'm not that stereotypical, am I?

Why do you make it difficult for everyone else?

I have so many assignments at the moment (should not be blogging) and, repeatedly, people do not state their name or the date that they wrote stuff on their websites.

Why?! You make it so difficult. Teachers are all "not a reputable source" and I'm like "Bitch, please"

Bibliographies are ridiculous. Why can't I just say I got it from this website and that is fact? Nothing shifty about that, it just happened, that's it. You need to calm down.

In other news, possibly got myself some arm candy. Yep, been blogging for over a year now and not once have I mentioned any manly man friends. This is exciting, mostly because I just realised that I've been blogging for over a year...Just joshin', guys, just joshing.

Gen Y, to us, even email is too slow.

I'm really tired right now and I should go and have a shower and go to bed, but I'm waiting for an email to send (damn you email and your treachery!), so I thought I'd write a blog post while I wait (yes, I have enough time. What, you're not as amazing of a typer as I am? Well, I'm just that great).

So...Whatcha guys been doing?

It's sent now, nevermind, see ya...



Just joshin' ya, guys. Though I am pretty tired and unorganised, I'll stay up a few more minutes to give you some giggles.

So, check it, adorable animals. Pleated Jeans is the most hilarious and often adorable blog. Click it! Click!

Here's a sneak preview of what is to be expected.

So...my brother just tackled me to the ground

And I've been a bit ill all day...but, whatevs, guy, I did provoke you. "Wanna go me, punk?" is warrant for a tackle, right?

Anyways, my lovely mother just emailed me this link and I think all of my four followers should sign this. If you don't agree that gay people shouldn't be killed for being gay, please stop reading my blog and go away (there were a lot of double negatives there, but I think I got my point across)

The tale of the unfortunately placed door

I was a youngin', but the wee age of four (maybe, everything gets kinda fuzzy when I think of this event) and my mother tells me we're going to the zoo.


So I get far to excited to be normal and start wigging out.

I psych myself up by running around in circles.

But, what horror, there is an unfortunately placed car door in my path.

I don't remember much after that, but I know that we didn't go to the zoo that day.

Neighbours making weird noises at night? What will you do?

So I was looking at my stats today and the number one thing that people get to my blog by searching in Google is:


Pretty sure this is what's happening over at your neighbours house, obviously.


So that's the answer to your question, people that are looking that up on Google. You might want to do something about that.

When you're doing something and then you just drift off into space, whilst staring at some curtains or something

I do that all the time, and then I realise and I snap back to whatever I'm doing, wondering if anyone notice me blank out for a second..

I'm ill. I've been somewhat sick for like two weeks and now I actually have sinusitis or something. It's very frustrating. I don't even understand how I get sick so easily, it's not like I go around licking poles or chewing gum I find under tables. There is something physically wrong with my immune system. But enough about the functions of my body, I have something more important to talk about.

Oh my God, you guys. I'm freaking out. Oh. My. God. I'm possibly getting my braces off on the 7th of June. Oh my Jesus.

But you guys probably didn't know I even had braces, you never ask me anything do you?

Nah, it's all sweet. We good, G.

I'm so excited, are you excited? I'm excited.

And THEN! We're going to Europe for close to a month! The next three months of my life are going to be awesome (minus time between now and the 7th of June where I have a million assignments due and little time for shopping). But whatever! I am going to take so many pictures. Speaking of pictures (awesome segue, I know)

I drew some things recently and I though you might be interested.
