Woop Woop

That is what i wish i was saying right now. The use of 'Woop Woop' would indicate that something super fun, exciting and un-work-like is occuring. No such luck.

Three of a Kind

Ryan
Ry is the best thing that has happened to me in a long time. It's the little things in life that really make a difference, and he's so got that down pat!
Ryan, you are the most supportive person in my life and i can always count on you to be 100 per cent honest with me, regardless of whether you think im going to like it or not. I love and appreciate how you will take time out to sit down and work through with me the things im not coping with and that i can't quite get a handle on. The little things you do like checking to see if i got to work okay and bringing me home a Crunchie when you do the shopping and even bigger things like organising a birthday suprise and present before you went away because you knew you were missing it rather than something half hearted a week later - you still made my day even from Bali - the nicknames you give me and the goofy things you do to make me smile just make me love you even more. Sometimes it sort of feels like Blink 182's Josie, just the other way round. Ryan, you're the best and make my world such a better place.

Holly
We’ve been friends ages, since year 5. Numbers make it seem like it’s been such a long time but it certainly doesn’t feel like it. You’ve always been the one I come to with (what feels like) my major life decisions. Whether it feels like my world is falling apart, I simply want to blab about something or have goss that I just found out in my drunken state, you’re always there to say ‘ohh!’ with just the right tone for the situation at ridiculous times in the morning when I’ve bumped into someone from school while I’m out and you’re always there with a shoulder to cry on and a listening ear when life’s getting me down.
We've grown together, we've learnt together, we've played together, we've cried together and we’re still there for each other. Always. You’re the sort of friend that you don’t need to speak to. The sort of best friend that just being around you makes everything better.
Through thick and thin. From down the road, the other side of town and the other side of the country. I will always be there for you, whenever you need me. Any time, any day - I'm only one call away.

Isami
You're like a big brother. Just a super cool one that i love being around. I hate that Canada has stolen you away, yet again. And i hate even more that when you finally do come home, it wont be my my home. I miss you every single day.

The Sea



The soundtrack of my morning.
Mellowed it out enough to make it bearable, I swear even the wind didnt feel as cold while this was playing.

Thank you, Van She.

There is no 'I' in team

"I started something I couldn't finish
And if we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means
Well best friends means.."

 
When you're in a relationship, whether its romantic or platonic, sometimes remembering that there is no 'I' in team is a really hard thing to do.
When its something that is effecting you both emotionally, physically and mentally, its so hard to take a step back and pull yourself out of the picture to focus on how the other's coping and dealing with it and how you might have to adjust to make it a little bit easier for the other.
It's so easy to focus on what you need and how you need to do it without taking into account just how it effects the people you love, most of the time its so rediculously unintentional that when its pointed out its a shock that's usually followed with a really yuck feeling of guilt.
But then there are other times i guess, when doing what you need and want without taking into consideration how it effects others is okay. I mean this in the sense of how moving interstate and overseas will effect your friends. And family i suppose. Families are there to provide love and support in all circumstances and situations whether they agree with them or not. It means being there with the same love and support when your world comes tumbling down and a helping hand and a warm cuddle when you rebuild it. And friends, true friends, are the family you chose and are there to do the same. And i guess truely being part of a family means taking yourself and all selfishness out of the equation for the benefit and happiness of another member.
You do what you have to do to make it okay. And at the end of the day, if we go down - we go down together.

New Bag

New handbags are like a fresh start.
A clean slate to leave all past mishandling, overfilling, dragging and throwing behind and a new promise to utilise all available compartments and pockets and fill with only the absolute necessities.
This is the promise that every girl makes and breaks for herself.

Happy Birthday to Me

Birthday's have always been my favourite celebration.
I love when you're little and you're that excited that you can't sleep for days before and you wake up so early and everything is just so exciting. Then you go to school and get to have a special show and tell of your birthday presents and everyone sings. That used to be the best.

When i was little, Mum used to do these suprises for me and my sister. She used to say that the Birthday Fairies did it. Every brithday we'd get a little extra suprise from them. One year, i've got no idea how she did it, but she turned my entire bedroom into a sea theme without me knowing. I woke up, and it had changed. I had waves of satin draping from my ceiling, shells and starfish all over my walls and an awesome quilt cover. Birthdays are awesome.

This year im celebrating the end of my teenage years and the start of my body going down hill.
I hate growing up and i hated the thought that i was going to have to be grown up enough to wake up and have my birthday by myself. But, for someone who was so terrified of spending it on her own, i've realised that i have so so many wonderful and amazing friends and people in my life that, even from Bali and at 4.22 in the morning, have really made today a truely awesome and special birthday. 

Thank you to you all and I love you from the absolute bottom of my heart.

Music Gets the Best of Me

Music is a wonderful, wonderful thing.
It's so rare to have something delight all of your senses at one time.
It is the one thing in the world that no one should have to live without.
I really don't understand people that can say they don't like and enjoy music.
One song can lift or drop your heart and soul, change and emphasize your mood, make you cry, make you laugh, bring up memories, help you imagine new ones sometimes even to the extend that you can smell and feel them. Music is a truely amazing thing. Whether you're successful and make it big, muck around on a guitar at home or sit on a curb side and play the bongo drums, to have the talent to create such an amazing thing is definately a gift that no one should ever over look.

Time


Is taking forever today.

Why is it that when you want to savour the moment, time goes too quickly yet, when you want your day to be over, it feels like it's a never ending day?
