Success!

I've found my formal dress! Even though it is two and a half months away. But I did spot this dress on a fellow blogger's (Late Afternoon) site and thought to myself 'I would wear that dress to formal if I could find one like it' and I totally found pretty much the same one!!! Here are the photos. The first is from Late Afternoon's Enchanted (look at the girl with the braid), the second is my dress from Forever New



I'm also excited that Mum bought me outdoor working lights from Bunnings that I can use as studio lights!!!! AND I'm on holidays (kinda) so I'm quite happy right now :)

Deadlines

What I do instead of meeting Deadlines:









I've decided that life is a deadline. Constant demands from people and not people. It seems that life is all about the task your given and how quickly you can finish it. Year 12 is possibly the most demanding deadline being if you don't do this...YOU'RE DEAD! Or at least you contract a psychosomatic illness in the process (as I've learnt in psychology). No-one in the world seems to understand that there is so much to do and so little time, and I'm serious sometimes the deadline is passed and tasks are left incomplete. I've had a headache everyday this week, just when I sit down at my large desk to complete the latest, never-ending task. Work has also proved to be a deadline. Customers stand at the counter and expect you to listen, understand and interpret every word and then execute their request within 1.3 seconds, giving evil stares if you fail to give them what they want when they want it! And there's those smaller deadlines, getting in and out of the shower before the next person, getting your licence, asking a relevant question, drinking alcohol and many MANY other things. In this perspective, it seems as if time travels a a much faster pace. Time I would much rather be spending in bed in the arms of the one I love. Sounds like a good idea doesn't it?

Here are some inspiring photos by Bec Parsons. I love her photography and enjoy looking at these photos for vast amounts of time. Just thought I'd share :D

PUSHOVER

PUSHOVER FESTIVAL WAS MMMMAAAAAAAAAADDDD!!! Such great musicians! I met Coby Grant, danced to Yacht Club DJs, fell in love with The Sundance Kids and rocked out in the rain to Dash & Will! So much fun!!! And I REALLY REALLY WANT CHARLIE THORPE'S OUTFIT!! Sick as blazer, little black dress and massive fake eyelashes. I think I'll have to go internet shopping but I've never done that before :S where do I go? HELP PLEASE!!

Costumes

"I think of 6 impossible things before breakfast!"
I've begun my blog with pictured tonight, rather than a boring slab of writing before. I wish I had another Today Tonight issue to talk about but I don't. I'm not phased by anything right now. I'm content. Maybe because I've had a cold which has slowed me down a little bit this week. I woke up at 3.30am on Monday morning with an agonising throat and burning nostrils. Therefore I stayed at home and watched Bewitched (1964). I think it's a fabulous show and Montgomery is absolutely stunning! I just love to watch her! Over the past few weeks I've been to a Hawaiian themed sweet sixteenth and school swimming carnival (condor themed 'construction') as well as two art exhibitions at the national gallery of victoria (Ron Mueck and Ricky Swallow) and an excursion to see the Top Screen. Both of which have inspired me greatly. I can't wait to get stuck into my first art piece for school, once I decide on which way to do it hahaha. But for now I shall continue to relax and do some leisurely sketching which I haven't gotten around to for a while now. I'll be sure to post scans of them if they are good enough :D
By the way...TIM BURTON IS A FREAKIN GENIUS!!! Alice in Wonderland is a brilliant movie! (saw it in Gold Class woop woop!) ...and Pushover music festival tomorrow cross your fingers it won't rain!!
