Crap I forgot I had a blog.

Mood: mixed.

Yep.

*gives you all some 'sorry cake' and earl grey tea with lemon*

Spent the last few months actually working my frelling butt off.

Sim patient. Did so much of that work... do you know how it feels to be four different people in eight days? No? I do. ^_^ They pay me, so I'm happy.

It also feels nice to contribute to the education of med students.

I have done a couple of clowning gigs as well, I love working with the kids, they are so cute and find everything I do funny! ^_^

Also... I did some more street theatre, for which I must upload some images... but I haven't. I'm so lame!

X-My-Ass is coming... and for once, I had almost all my shopping done before December! Not bad for miss disorganised. *cheers*

All this with the mishap of my expired bank card, which I still can't use due to the fact that I do not have a pin number yet... :/

And also... I won a G award! Not bad... although I was practically the only one in my category XD. I'm still relatively happy about it, and I get to stay down where they are being held for a night. ^_^ Taking a couple of new friends I met through theatre, they are two really awesome people and they are probably the cutest couple there ever could be! If only everyone could be in love like they seem to be *grins*. A is also coming and since he is awesome fun, I'm really looking forward to going. I am not too concerned about the actual award, since I never ever act for awards... the night itself will be fun enough for me!

We are staying in the same caravan park as we did for the one act play festival, which might trigger my emo... there are memories of that place that I just can't remove. I am trying my hardest to forget and move on, but some days it is really hard. I am glad I will be spending it with some really cool people who will tell me to stop being emo if I start crying. XD

Also, D has been practicing hypnosis, and I'm seeing some amazing results in both me and E.

News Spoons:

* I won a G award!

* I have been working my butt off... but feeling rewarded!

* I've done some poetry and story readings to be aired on radio next year.

* E has been approved for an aide next year, and he will have the same teacher as this year!

* We went to a special kids christmas party in the city, which E had an awesome time at!

*I have been painting, and playing piano.

* I am attempting to sew my dress for G awards. I will upload a pic when I'm done!

bye for now, I'll try and update more often!

Things are better the bigger they are!

Mood: hurt, motivated.

Things are better the bigger they are!

Hi there again... sorry for the delay in updates... I've been off being an emo sourpuss... but I am back... updating and all that jazz!

First things first... I am about to plonk a bunch of images on here that I find on the interwebs that I think you will find funny...

I'm sick to death of facebook. Facebook will eat your soul if you let it!

And I have been doing shows galore... I started this year with 'Who Goes Bare' playing a manic maid, then I ended up helping out (going mental) with costumes for 'Beauty and the Beast'... never again! It was fun, and I learned heaps, but costumes do my head in.

I also helped direct a play one of my dearest friends wrote called 'The Lady of the English' about a time traveler who meets the very first female monarch of England, and prevents her from doing nasty stuff to herself... like die.

That was a wild and fun experience, I had the rare opportunity of working with some people who were brand new to theatre, I got to workshop with them and see them grow into theatre. I learned so much from them and will value my time with them forever!

There is also a couple of radio plays I have been promising to record for this same friend, which I have been evil enough to ignore. I'll post a link when we have completed them, his writing is pretty awesome, so I am really looking forward to laying those tracks down and hearing the final product!

The street theatre regained some momentum too, and we did a couple of really fun gigs, one of which got us accommodated in some pretty nice digs in the city (pics to follow, cause it did happen!) And have been working on a really interesting art project for the Melbourne Fringe Festival... which has been ultimately rewarding and fun!

I've been writing a fair bit, lately, and trying to learn everything under the sun (see my other blog for info on one of those things) Piano is turning out beautifully! I forgot what can happen when you apply yourself... and I am applying myself liberally to those plastic ivories... writing songs and the like. I'm now dicing up wether to attempt NaNoWriMo this November... (ty Aron ;) )

(It's amazing what a little perspective and pain does for your creativity...)

Cheers friends!

Stay tuned for more updates! ^_^ = 42
