cd's i have bought recently

today i had lunch with my grandparents and my mother for my grandpa's 67th birthday. it was at a club with an all you can eat buffet type food (not my favourite type of thing because they never seem to have anything vegetarian friendly except for crummy vegies) but it was actually really nice. i had lots of fun listening to my grandparents make fun of all the oldies making the most of it and going back for their fourth plate of food and my grandpa singing happy birthday to himself and referring to himself as a donkey. so cute!
and tonight i am going to my boyfriends house as he is cooking me dinner. i can't wait to see what he has made me, i miss his lovely cooking!
and for now i am going to listen to Julia Stone and enjoy having a day off ^.^

hope your day has been lovely. xx

i am laying in bed listening to Notorious B.I.G., 'seeker, lover, keeper' and boy and bear. such a weird combination but that's the mood i am in.
today is my first sick day off work and i feel bad because i had to make a fuss to find someone to work but i really need a day of resting after the night i had of being that sick.
i need to chew my food better and i don't know if i'll be eating my favourite vegie korma again for a while.
yuck.

i'm a lucky woman

two and a half years today with such a wonderful, sexy man.

i'm sitting here sipping on organic holy basil tea and missing my dearest Lucy (who is many sea's away).
she shares my love of tea and the sounds of 'The Middle East' and it makes me miss her so.
i keep reading a postcard that she sent me and her handwriting makes me remember little things about her that make me miss her more.

right now i felt so nostalgic but content all at the same time.
i want to go back to times when i'd walk to work beneath tree's so beautiful and large in the early morning sun and breathing in air that only feels that fresh in your lungs when it's morning.
i want to be eating a toasted turkish roast vege bread wrap with Lucy, op-shopping and visiting the gallery with her.

but i also feel so in love, like i've never felt before and that i never want the feeling to end or change unless it could get better but i can't even imagine anything better than this.

ah, life.

i have this insane urge to swim in water that is clear blue and beautiful.

i've wanted to ever since i can remember and i feel like i need to buy a plane ticket and go somewhere like that really soon because i know it'll make me really happy.

i wouldn't mind that for my 21st birthday actually.

flying away on a plane and escaping everyone and everything, even for a few days to go somewhere like this, wasting my money on what would feel like freedom.

i wouldn't mind hiding here for a while.

i'm not sure what it was but today i woke up feeling motivated. maybe it's because one of my best friends emailed me from Sweden? or maybe it's because i'm turning 21 (ARGH) this coming weekend? or it could be both? but i feel like i've lost myself a little lately. i've been busy going from boring A to boring B and back again and i've been ignoring that little voice in my head that reminds me of all my hopes and dreams that i have for myself and i need to listen to it before i become unhappy.



so i'm looking at inspiring photos and listening to Xavier Rudd <3 because he always reminds of the things i need to do in order to get to where i want to be.
 

new blog

i'm quite aware that the only person who shall take any notice of this is Lucy but anyway:

i don't think you realise how much i adore you and how happy it makes me feel just to know i have someone so lovely like you in my life.
i know this year is bad for you and i hate that but please don't forget you have me <3

it's funny how quick time goes but how slow it actually feels when you miss someone

no matter how many years go by i will always think of you and miss you dearly.
happy birthday, my friend.
i hope that wherever you are, you are smiling.
love you always xo

today I am spending the day by watching all my No Doubt and Gwen Stefani DVD's to pass the time while I wait for Jye to get home.
We are going to Melbourne to see the lovely City and Colour <3
I'm so excited!

I am also becoming really impatient as I wait for all my Gwen Stefani related eBay purchases to come from around the world to my doorstep.
I was hoping they'd be here before I went to Melbourne so I could use them but oh well, another time.

I am getting a bit cranky as I watch a DVD from a No Doubt concert in 1997 because I've never been old enough to go to one of their concerts :( So before I die I must see them as many times as I can afford to to make up for all those lost oppurtunities when I was younger.
And if I die before I see them, I'll haunt you all...
Not really, I'll just crash all their concerts.

Anyway, enough of my bored ramblings I have to go and repack because as usual I've packed too much and it's time to decide which Gwen shirt I'll be taking instead of three.
Hope your day is wonderful :)

Whilst burning sandalwood incense and listening to 'Kettering' by the Antlers I cleaned my room at last. I've been so lazy with it and I really regret not doing it sooner because I found it so therapeutic. I feel much more balanced and intune with myself when my bedroom is clean. I am far more content and happy when I am in it now already.

So far today on my day off I have done the following things:
- learnt how to poach eggs and ate them for breakfast
- practised three point turns
- ate a roast lunch with my family (vegies, vege schnitzel, apple sauce and vegetarian gravy) so yummy
- read my new book about natural home remedies, etc. so interesting.
- had a visit from my friend, Lauren
- cleaned my room
- found all my winter jackets, cardigans and jumpers because it's starting to get chilly

and now here I am, writing this.

I hope your day was lovely.

I have a list of things I want to achieve and last week I happily ticked off two of them:
- sent my withdrawal application to uni
- booked in my driving test

and now I just have to get the withdrawal approved and pass my
driving test, gah. so nervous about both.

my life currently consists of:

- working
- wasting time watching television
- getting my hopes up about spending time with someone
- finding out i won't be able to see them
- working
- listening to cloud control
- writing
- working
- getting my hopes up about spending time with someone
- finding out i won't be able to see them
- sleeping
- buying gwen stefani related things on ebay
- eating
- getting my hopes up about seeing someone
- being told i won't be able to see them
- working
- waiting, always waiting

i have never felt so lonely as i have these past few weeks

happy birthday my dear lucy <3
i hope i can take away this hungover and the cranky mood of yours while we journey to Shepparton to see the amazing Angus and Julia Stone :)

i just won a game of spider solitaire and now i think i shall go and have a cup of green tea with mint and watch "No Doubt - The Videos 1992 - 2003" dvd <3

not the productive day i had planned for my day off but, it is nice to be doing nothing.

Dear little sister,
My heart broke a little last night.
I'm just thankful that you're still here and you're okay because you scared the crap out of me.
No more cycling and I'll be a happy sister.
If you you ever put me through something this scary again I'll post the pictures of your badly messed up face to the world wide web, sucker!
Love you always,
your worried sister xo

confused

it makes me sick to my stomach to think about leaving you behind.

i want you all over me like L.A.M.B.

i've been daydreaming about travelling to Europe and walking into a London clothing store and having a mini heart attack because they stock L.A.M.B.

i then continue to go a little crazy and almost cry when trying on everything i can grab my hands on

but then it all gets pretty upsetting when i come to the realisation i can't buy everything

not even a few things because that amazing stuff is expensive.

but, that makes me want to save and save and save and save so that when i finally get over there i won't have that disappointment.

L.A.M.B. Fall 2011

these images are both backstage and onstage from Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B Fall 2011 runway show in New York.

from the photo's and video's i have seen of the collection and the show it looks like she should be really proud of herself.

i really don't know how she does it but she is honestly some kind of superwoman. 

when i am her age if i am only half of the talented, successful, beautiful and amazing person she is i would be a very, very happy lady.

oh, and this is a video from the end of the show when Gwen is coming out for her final bow and Kingston suprises her on stage. it makes me smile, it is so cute.

stop wasting so much time on being negative

one of the only people who shares my boring, indecisive, tea drinking ways is Lucy. she happens to own a cat which makes me quite jealous as i wish to own a pet so i can smother them.. (with love)

i'll never understand why people have such anger

sometimes i wish i could switch the 'care' button off inside me because being so sensitive is getting old fast.  



you came in with the breeze on sunday morning

source: beaconstreetonline

i find it hard to express in words how much i adore and admire this woman.

ND

my life will be complete once i see this band in concert

and maybe meeting them too . . .

tick tock tick tock

i am  pretty nervous because i seem to have pretty bad luck when it comes to ebay but i have purchased something pretty lovely.
i am in love with Gwen Stefani and her brand is L.A.M.B and i won a L.A.M.B watch and i am so happy about it. i just hope it is as lovely as it looks in the pictures.

boyfriend

i won't lie, i miss waking up next to you every morning and i miss seeing you walk through the hall each day.
i miss the cuddles in the morning and the kisses goodbye.
hearing 'i love you' before you leave to go somewhere or before you sleep.
but now any time i spend with you is a lot more appreciated.
i can't believe it's only been two years, it feels lifetime and
i honestly don't remember a time when i've been happier,
i love you.

boring saturday night

i'm quite frustrated and i have to remember when i am in these situations that this might of been avoided,
you did this to yourself.

attn: camera chord

breanna.

lucy and katherine
