Sorry

Hello blog. I am sorry for the neglect. Since getting back from my trip I have been sooooooo busy working at my new job at Movenpick Ice Cream :D the only store in Melbourne! It has been pretty full on but I have made lots of new friends, not just the ones who work in the store but others from surrounding stores in the shopping centre, one of which gave me a yummy smelling soap from Lush yesterday. So an update:

1. Sydney was great! I couldn't fault one thing about it I just loved the time there.

2. MUST's latest show [working title] was fabulously interesting and creative.

3. A couple of my band mates and I are playing a low-key gig on the weekend.

4. I will soon be the proud owner of a 2006 Nissan Tiida

5. I AM GOING TO MELBOURNE SPRING FASHION WEEK! Or at least the Wednesday night. Needless to say I have already bought a dress from asos and I'm waiting for my next pay check to buy shoes. This coming event has inspired me to get blogging again!

So whilst I'm busy using my day off to look up fashion pics, buy a new public transport card and prepare for my second semester of Uni, here is a cool photo of Frankenstain nails that I found on another blog! (I am currently trying to recreate them on my own nails right now)

SYDNEY

I'm here! So far Nick and I have walked along the harbour at night, seen Terminus (an Irish play), bopped along at Jersey Boys, visited Chinatown, wandered through Westfield, went shopping at the Paddington Markets and sat on the green grass of Hyde Park whilst enjoying the sun and Starbucks. And there is so much more to see!

Photos of my purchases at the market and other things.

Pink

FINALLY! I dip dyed! And it was so easy!!! Fudge Paintbox I discovered from a friend and I plan on getting more colours and having fun! But right now I'm really enjoying pink :)

100

Happy 100 blog posts life and lights!

Time to celebrate with some photos. First are images of art pieces by Marcel Duchamp, a highly influential surrealist of the modern times. Today we (Nick and I) went on a trip to Brisbane to view the Surrealism exhibition at the GoMA. We were totally blown away by what we saw as well as the history behind the Da Da and Surrealist movements from the 1920s to the 1960s. You may recognise the urinal piece which was created by Marcel. His idea was that he could get any object used in every day life and create a piece of art by placing it in a different place and calling it 'art'. We got to view the wine bottle holder in this exhibition.

Next some photography by possibly my favourite photographer, Bec Parsons. Just some random photos of pretty dresses and fun girls.

Lastly, a few tourist shots of my trip in Queensland so far. Haven't stopped since we landed so plan on spending the next few days relaxing and perhaps hitting up the beach.

Stay tuned for photos of my new pink hair fun!

Fly

I thought that I should start off this entry with a cool photo of some bangin' girls by Liz Ham that I discovered in the most recent edition of Yen.

I also thought I should let know it's only two sleeps until I'm jetting off for two weeks! Following a hard two weeks at my new job in an ice cream shop I've mustered up enough moolah to definitely relax and hit the markets of the Gold Coast and Sydney. I'm very Very VERY excited!

Stay posted for photos etc. of my trip!!!

Playtime

SELF PORTRAIT

Day off work means ... playtime! After playing around with tumblr (Check me out www.lifeandlights.tumblr.com), I had a play with make-up following youtube tutorials and photos, then played with photoshop!

BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday to me! (On Sunday) I've had a lovely long weekend celebrating my birthday with friends and family. I was treated last night to a movie with my boyfriend and a massage today. The massage was not a fantastic experience. My gifts included clothing, including a beautifully snuggly and warm knitted All About Eve jumper (see below), a book on the history of American Burlesque, a 'Little Miss Sunshine' book, a photoframe and a bottle of original Irish Cream Baileys. YUM! Hope you have all enjoyed your Queen's Birthday weekend as much as I have!

Balloons

"Hey Balloons, it is a party!" - Dory [finding Nemo]

It is 4 sleeps until I turn 19 years old! ARGH! Last year of being a teenager! So this weekend I look forward to putting on my beautiful navy blue velvet dress from Forever New and letting my hair down as we party all night long! It is also 22 sleeps until I escape the Melbourne freeze and head up to the Gold Coast, then back down to freezing Sydney before heading home again. I'm very excited and very much looking forward to this trip. As the day gets closer I'll give you an insight as to what Nick and I will be up to on our trip. And definitely keep posted for some nice photographs of the beaches and the cities.
