It’s been awhile... [Jul. 7th, 2008|03:21 pm]
[Current Mood | tired]
[Current Music |30 Seconds To Mars - A Beautiful Lie]



Not much has happened since updating last.
I got a Nintendo DS Lite on Thursday and also got ‘More Brain Training’ and ‘Nintendogs’. My brain is in its late 20’s to early 30’s. I got the Nintendogs so I could finally have a German shepherd called Rex. It is annoying though as I can’t feed him until he recognises his name and is able to sit when commanded. It takes, literally, 10 minutes of saying ‘REX’ over and over again into the damn machine for him to register his name. Then 2 minutes later he forgets the damn thing. I’m kind of in the process of giving up on him.

Saturday night, we had a little party. People from Chris’s work, it was. Gail and Rod we’re leaving to go back to New Zealand to live and they wanted to see Mum and Chris’s house before they left so they kind of had a going away/house warming party. It was quite an enjoyable night.

Sunday, we finally managed to get Nan’s TV!!! At long last, she now has a TV. $100 more than the other TV but this one is better than Mum and Chris’s. Chris is a little annoyed at that too! Hehehe

Today at work, my routine has changed. The lolly man doesn’t get his order on Monday’s anymore so that was screwed up this morning, I did the cigarette order instead as Cassie isn’t here for a WHOLE WEEK!!! Thank god!

Rachel came in today as her replacement. Oh! And the Novellino Deli and Fruit Shop did a runner over night. They were in the centre and selling stuff yesterday and today they are vacant with nothing in sight. They were supposedly giving everything away yesterday afternoon so they could be empty by morning. I hope another fruit shop goes in just so Woolworths has some kind of competition at all.



30 Seconds To Mars – A Beautiful Lie
Lie awake in bed at night
And think about your life
Do you want to be different?
Try to let go of the truth
The battles of your youth
'Cause this is just a game

It's a beautiful lie
It's the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me

It's time to forget about the past
To wash away what happened last
Hide behind an empty face
Don't ask too much, just say
'Cause this is just a game

It's a beautiful lie
It's the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me

(Oh, Oh, The end of the world)

Everyone's looking at me
I'm running around in circles, baby
A quiet desperation's building higher
I've got to remember this is just a game

(So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful)

It's a beautiful lie
It's the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me

Today went quite fast.
Keeyarna wasn't in as she is feeding her brother the next couple of days... Brittany was meant to come in at 8.30am but Jim told her the wrong time and came in at 9.30am [same time as Cassie] so we lost an hour in magazines. I finished them just before I went on lunch.

I then invoiced in the lollies and then did 20 x 45 page bindings which took quite awhile. I finished 5 mins before I left so the day went really fast.

I then went to Dads place. We had roast lamb for dinner and ice-cream for dessert! It was really good. It is now 9.34pm and I'm thinking about watching 'Eastern Promises'... I may watch it tomorrow afternoon instead. Really looking forward to it!

26-06-2008 – Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary Mum and Chris! [Jul. 1st, 2008|07:53 pm]
[Current Mood | happy]
[Current Music |Lindsay Lohan - I Want You To Want Me]



Well... Thursday night I was supposed to be meeting Dwayne at Chermside but he messaged me at 5.30pm saying that he ‘was sick and couldn’t make it’ [honestly I think that it was bullshit, as explained further down]. I was in the mood to go out and meet up with a friend then so I called Erin and she sounded terrible so I left her in peace after we spoke for around 20 mins. I then tried calling Stacey but she had changed her number. I then tried Danielle and she was at Strathpine so I went out to Westfield Strathpine and met up with her. She asked what I was doing there and told her the story and it so happens that she was meant to meet up with Dwayne a few weeks ago but he called it off as he was ‘feeling sick’ again.

People wonder why I don’t go out with friends – because half the time they blow me off so I don’t care, and I don’t really wanna waste time, time is precious so I use it wisely! Others obviously don’t!

While in Strathpine, I saw Paul Whittington [old boyfriend, haven’t seen for 8 years or so], a few other people from school that I recognised that didn’t recognise me. I also saw Liam! Was good to see Liam... Haven’t seen him since I left high school back in 2004... So just on 4 years now... I went into ALDI to grab a few things and got served by Erin’s sister Callandra, which was good because Tarsh wanted her number and she wanted Natarsha’s so that was exchanged. We talked for a little bit – I mean I haven’t seen her for around 4 or 5 years now either. What started off to be a crap night actually turned out to be a really good one!

On the weekend, we finished off laying the floors. Their house looks really good now! Not long and they can get their final inspection done and get everything connected! I also got a refund for my nights in Grafton for this weekend as Tarsh and Jo are up here with us now until the 8th. Yesterday afternoon Chris had to go to Melbourne so Mum stayed the night. We all played ‘Frustration’ and had a ball! We started playing at around 7pm and didn’t finish the game until 11.40pm [note that Mum and I had been up from 4am!]



Billy Idol - Don’t You (Forget About Me)
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Watching ooh... Yeah

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing and you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out, out
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
I'll get us back together at heart, baby

Don't you forget about me...?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't you forget about me...?

Will you stand above me?
Look my way and never love me?
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Would you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by?
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Watching ooh..... Yeah

Don't you try and pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defences
Vanity and security

Don't you forget about me...?
I'll be alone, dancing and you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't you forget about me...?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't you forget about me...?

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?

Or will you walk on by?
Will you walk away?

Would you call my name?

[Current Music |Coldplay - Violet Hill]



First!!! I saw on the back of the ‘International Express’ newspaper that Ronaldo is considering a move to Real Madrid. Sir Alex has stepped in, and with the backing of the Glazers’, has said that Ronnie isn’t for sale. They are [hopefully] going to decline a bid from Real Madrid for a possible £79 Million. Ronaldo came clean and said that he had been considering a move from United to Real months before he helped us get the double in the season just gone. If he does move to Real, I’ll be terribly upset... First Ruud, now this... Thank god Giggs and Scholes are staying... I’d be distraught if they decided to retire anytime soon! Jesus... I don’t care if Ronnie wants to leave us but not just yet... PLEASE!!! NOT YET!!!

Balls of Steel wasn’t even on due to some crap about the Corby bitch. Oh well... You can’t win them all... Honestly I can’t even remember what I watched last night.

Today was a quick day for me. First off, Chris had slept in and accidentally didn’t leave 2 trolleys in the store room so when he got there to get the magazines, they were kinda thrown everywhere. By the time I got there, there was still a shit load of mags to invoice and put out. Usually I would be finished by 10am – 11am at the latest.

I didn’t get them all done until 1.20pm. I then had to invoice the lolly order and restock all that stuff, and then continue on the CDs from yesterday. I think I got all my stuff done by 3.20pm, only 10 mins before I left, so the day went pretty fast for me.

I then made my way to Dads place. We had nachos for dinner, which was great! Haven’t had nachos in a very long time indeed, it was a good change. We had ice-cream for dessert!

Now, it’s 9.57pm and I’m getting ready to go to bed soon... 7.30am start tomorrow. Also, I’m going to Chermside to meet up with Dwayne, just to catch up – should be good. I could do with a friend in my life...



Coldplay – Viva La Vida
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies' eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castle stands
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a’ ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone it was never,
never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh...who would ever wanna be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells were ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs were singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Whoaaa (x4)

Here Jerusalem bells were ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs were singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

[Current Music |Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger]



Today was crap to say the least.
I had every wanker under the sun.
And to top it off, I had to stay an extra 30 minutes.
I’m so mentally drained right now it’s not funny!

Today’s pic is of Natarsha’s birthday present! I know she doesn’t look at this or my fotolog so she won’t see it. Knowing my luck this will be the day that she decides to check it for sure. I got her a Juventus jersey and I knitted the 2 scarves myself. A black and white one, to wear with the jersey and also a blue one just because she likes the colour. Plus she already knows about the blue one.

I can’t remember what I watch tonight... I think it was Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares [which is now finished] followed by Ladette to Lady [also finished] then Balls of Steel.

Today was pretty good.
Work went quick.
The bank was pretty fast.
I had Teriyaki Beef and Rice for lunch [yum!] and watched ‘Red Eye’ and ‘The Italian Job’.

I was bored this afternoon so I went on MSN and Dwayne was online. It was good to talk to someone that I hadn’t heard from in a long time. I was glad he was there to listen as I got some crap off my chest. I feel much better now, thanks heaps! We are going to catch up Thursday night at Chermside. Something to look forward to!

It’s now 9.29pm and I don’t start until 8.30am tomorrow! I can sleep in a little bit but I bet I won’t.

I’m going to go now and continue on my scarf. Talk soon!

Lazy day today... Bond weekend!!! [Jun. 22nd, 2008|07:33 pm]
[Current Mood | lazy]
[Current Music |A Perfect Circle - Imagine]




The pic today is of all the stuff from yesterday - the two shirts, the program, brochure and also the ticket.

I didn’t do much today at all. I took Nan out to Strathpine as I needed to go to the cheap shop to [hopefully] pick out the same book that I’d got every year since 2003 to use as my journal and I managed to get the last one in the shop! We then ducked into JB Hi Fi to see if they had ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ on DVD but it wasn’t on sale so I didn’t bother.

Apart from ‘Edward’ yesterday, this weekend has been a Bond weekend.
I’ve watched the following Bond films in the last day and a half or so:-
Live & Let Die
GoldenEye
Tomorrow Never Dies
The World Is Not Enough
Casino Royale

Now, that I’ve updated this (at last!), I’m going to go and do something else to fill in the night. Probably end up listening to Adam and the Ants and preparing stuff to stick into my journal. Hope you all have a wonderful night!



30 Seconds To Mars – Hunter
If travel is searching
And home what's been found
I'm not stopping

I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'll bring back the goods
But I don't know when

I thought I could organize freedom
How American of me
This is who I am
You figured it out, didn't you?

You could smell it
So you left me on my own
To complete the mission
Now I'm leaving it all behind

I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter [x3]
You just didn't know me [x6]

Edward Scissorhands was today!!! [Jun. 21st, 2008|07:03 pm]
[Current Mood | impressed]
[Current Music |Danny Elfman - Castle on the Hill [Edward Scissorhands OST]]




‘Edward Scissorhands’ was actually pretty good, considering that there were no words spoken throughout the whole performance. They preferred to just use dance, movement and stage play to convey the story to us. The final dance that Edward and Kim have together really pulled on the heart strings, and then in the final scene with Edward and old Kim, I nearly cried. I had tears forming in my eyes then I thought to myself, “Shit. Am I wearing waterproof mascara or not?” so I had to hold them back. Once it was finished and the cast came out, they got a standing ovation from me. I really enjoyed it! The two performers that portrayed Edward did it so well, I couldn’t believe it, it truly was a magical experience.

I bought 2 shirts and a souvenir program. I had to fill in an hour and a half so I went over to the museum and had a look around there for a while.

Turns out that it wasn’t waterproof, when I washed it off this afternoon, it came off quite easily. I could see really well actually. The theatre isn’t as big as what it looks on the plans.



Kim: Hold me.
Edward: I can’t…

Today was pretty good.
Cassie was a little bit of a pain in the arse again, but, as always, when is she not?

It started to rain just before I left work and one guess where my umbrella was? It was in the car, of course, keeping it company.

Nothing much really happened today at all... I had a dull day but it went quite fast. Dad got a new fish tank for his fish and it looks really good! I’ll take a pic of it sometime next week.

On the end of the Channel 10 news tonight, they had a little clip of ‘Edward Scissorhands’ and it actually looks like it will be quite good. I just hope I can see alright from where I’m sitting. If not, I assume that they will have binoculars.



The Doors – The End
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I’ll never look into your eyes
Again

Can you picture what we’ll be,
So limitless and free?
Desperately in need
Of some stranger’s hand
In a desperate land

Lost in a Roman
Wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

There’s danger on the edge of town
Ride the king’s highway
Weird scenes inside the goldmine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake
Ride the snake
To the lake
The ancient lake, baby
The snake he’s long
Seven miles
Ride the snake
He’s old
And his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we’ll do the rest

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
It hurts to set you free
But you’ll never follow me
The end of laughter
And soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

[Current Music |The Living End - White Noise]



I finally gave into myself and bought a ticket to see 'Edward Scissorhands' at the Lyric Theatre, QPAC on Saturday!!!

I've been thinking about it for around a month now and finally gave in. Plus, I don't know when the next time a play comes around that I would like to go and see. I'm proud of myself that I'm actually starting to go out and do and see things, even if I am by myself, I DON'T CARE!!!

Thanks for listening to my rant and I hope that you my choice of seeing a play for the first time in my life! :-)

Not much has happened in the last few days. I’ve probably already said that I have finished Natarsha’s “Juventus” scarf and have now got a really pretty one going on!
I had to get petrol today – 38L or there-abouts and it cost me bloody $57!!! The price was $1.499 – it didn’t go up from yesterday when I checked so I was happy considering I heard that the price of oil jumped really badly overnight.

I’m currently trying to fill in time until ‘Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares’ final starts at 8.30pm. I’m off to do something... Talk soon!

[Current Mood | crazy]
[Current Music |Sweeney Todd - Epiphany]



Yesterday afternoon, I met Chris at work to go back to their place.
The traffic yesterday afternoon was absolutely shocking! It took 2 hours to get from Chermside to Coopers Plains. We didn't get to their house until around 7.30pm so I had been on some kind of transport for 4 bloody hours! I couldn't believe it!

Today, we went to the house and cut out the holes in the deck ceiling for the downlights. Chris used the new hole cutter once and then the blade was blunt. That is Australian made crap for you indeed. We all couldn't believe it! Chris then used a jigsaw to cut the other 12 holes out with.

It is now 4.43pm and Mum and Chris had left for the mainland for Lotte and Pauls wedding at around 2.20pm. The wedding is at 5pm and then they are going out for dinner so they are to be back sometime around 10pm. I have already watched 'Sweeney Todd' once and have now realised that the English 2.0 audio has an audio description obviously for people that are blind so they can "see" what is happening so now I'm 'watching' the movie again while updating this! It is pretty cool because I can even knit Natarsha's scarf while knowing what is happening.

I'm off - unfortunatly no song today... I couldn't be bothered to find one. If your desperate for a song, the one I'm currently listening to on 'Sweeney Todd' is 'Epiphany' (spelling?) - number 11 on the soundtrack if you have it. LOL. Talk later!

Guess what we did at work?!? [Jun. 11th, 2008|10:34 pm]
[Current Mood | touched]
[Current Music |Michael Buble - Lost]



Well... I haven’t updated in the last few days...

Monday 9th – HAPPY 45th BIRTHDAY JOHNNY DEPP
Today was a public holiday due to the ‘Queens Birthday’ – I guess we just needed a holiday before August so they made this one up considering her birthday is supposedly in April. Chris had to go to Sydney today so Mum and I went with him that night. I got my QANTAS book too. We went through the Jet Star screening point thing and guess what? My watch didn’t go off this time. I give up with the stupid airport security crap.

Yesterday – I printed out the usual memo crap from Golden Casket via the lotto machines and it was the ‘who sold the winning tickets’ one for Saturday and Keeyarna goes, “Ohh, we sold a second division on Saturday!.” “That’s good” I replied before she then went, “Hold on, we sold first division sorry.” I then got a little sceptical and said, “What? Let me see.” I looked at the memo and out of the 7 winners, 2 were in Qld and yes, one of them was sold by our newsagency! I couldn’t believe it! I’ve been here for 3 years now and have finally seen us sell a first division! The prize was only $571,000 but still better than nothing.

Today we received our little package for selling a first division. We got t-shirts, glasses, champagne and some banners and balloons for us to hang up. Also some badges too! Very cool indeed! I finished Natarsha’s blue scarf on Sunday night. I started a black and white one now to go with her Juventus jersey. Hope she likes it. Nan and I are going to visit her in the beginning of July.



Michael Bublé – I Got The World On A String
(Hey Michael come on & swing.
Looks like you got the world on a string.)

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life - I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing
And I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, cant you see - I'm in love

Life's a wonderful thing
As long as I've got that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let you go

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on the rainbow
I've got that string around my finger
Oh, what a world, what a life - I'm in love

Life's a wonderful thing
As long as I hold the string
I'd be a crazy so-and-so
If I should ever let her go

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
I got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life
Oh, what a world, what life
What a world, what life, cause I'm in love
(He's in love, he's in love)
I'm in love
(Got the world on a string)
And what a wonderful thing
(Alright)
When you get the world on a string
(Uh huh)

[Current Music |Vanessa Paradis - L'Eau Et Le Vin]



I’m going back to Grafton in a few weeks to give Tarsh her present!
I’m happy for that... I mean it is her 18th birthday; I should be the one giving it to her.
Also, I finished her scarf off just before so I can give her that too – BEFORE it gets too cold! LOL!

Yesterday, Nan and I went to Carrara Markets and I got Tarsh a Juventus jersey so she will also get that for her birthday too. We left around 8.20am and got back around 3.15pm. It was a really good day out!

Friday, Kelsey emailed me some of the photos she took at the Michael Bublé concert and this is one of them! She was third row in the front-left! Lucky girl indeed... She also got to touch his hand twice!



Michael Bublé – Everything
You're a falling star; you’re the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.

And you play it coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, when you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby ,don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
‘Cause you can see it when I look at you.

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

You're a carousel; you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery; you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.

And I can't believe, girl, that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, oh we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

[Current Music |Michael Bublé - Song For You]



Nan’s flight was delayed and instead of arriving back here around 4.30pm, she wasn’t leaving Cairns until 4pm so Mum and Chris didn’t get here until around 7pm.

I was planning on going to their place this long weekend but that was screwed around yesterday so they are going to visit Natarsha in Grafton. I’ve wrapped up her present for her birthday and I’m pissed off at the fact that I won’t be the one giving it to her. I’m annoyed too because I told her I would visit her for her birthday before we go to New Zealand and also because Mum said that we would go down on a normal weekend, not a long weekend.

Oh well... Not everything goes the way we want it to... Pity though...

Miss you Tarsh! Come back up soon!



[u]Michael Bublé – Song For You[/u]
I've been so many places in my life and time,
I've sung a lot of songs; I've made some bad rhymes,
I've acted out my life in stages with ten thousand people watching,
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hoped to be,
I've treated you unkindly but girl can't you see,
There's no one more important to me,
So darling, can't you please see through me,
'cause we're alone now and I'm singing my song for you,

You taught me precious secrets of truth, withholding nothing,
You came out in front and I was hiding,
But now I'm so much better so if my words don't come together,
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there hiding

*puts microphone back on the stand and walks to front of the stage*
*sings to audience, nothing between him and us*

I love you in a place where there's no space or time,
I love you for my life, ‘cause you're a friend of mine,
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing my song for you
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing my song for you

Kelsey managed to get me a DVD by Naturally 7 last night! Thank you heaps hun! AND!!! It was the last copy of the DVD that they had! I couldn’t believe it when she told me that! We talked about the concert for most of the day.
She was either second or third row in the front left so she got to touch his hand twice <lucky woman!> and got heaps of photos. She is going to email them to me!

Surprisingly with Keeyarna, Kelsey and myself there, the day went faster than if Cassie was there. Tomorrow will be hell seeing that it is $50 Million, Kelsey is working a whole day again as a helper – we’ll need her! I know that much!

One guess what the photos and songs will be for the next couple of updates now?!?
Update soon!



<u>Michael Bublé - Fever</u>
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night.

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

Ev'rybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said 'Julie, baby, you're my flame

Thou giv-est fever when we kisseth
Fever with the flaming youth
Fever I'm afire
Fever yea I burn for sooth'

Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said 'Daddy, o, don't you dare
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his misses,
Oh daddy, won't you treat him right'

Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade

They give you fever when you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn

Michael Bublé concert!!! GAH!!! [Jun. 2nd, 2008|11:54 pm]
[Current Mood | excited]
[Current Music |nada]



The concert was absolutely wonderful!
The band before him, Naturally 7, were bloody awesome! From the look of them, it is not what you’d expect them to play that is for sure! The pic is the shirt that I got from the concert. I'm a bit pissed off that none of them had dates printed on them... What makes them different from others?!? NOTHING!!!

He opened with ‘I’m Your Man’, followed by ‘It Had Better Be Tonight (Meglio Stasera) which was bloody great live! Then he played ‘Me and Mrs. Jones’.

"Raise your right hand up like this", he raises his right hand, everyone follows. “For those of you who are from New Zealand, THIS is your right hand.” *waves his hand around* "So raise your right hand and now place it in the lap of the person next to you and caress them. Don’t worry ladies, keep going... I like to watch!"
- Michael Bublé before ‘Fever’.

He then went into ‘Fever’ which had to be my favourite of the night so far. Then they played ‘Call Me Irresponsible’, followed by ‘I’ve Got the World on a String’. He then dimmed the lights to get in the mood to play the next 3 songs, which happened to be ‘Always On My Mind’, ‘Lost’ and my favourite of the night ‘Home’. ‘Feeling Good’ soon followed then we all went up in cheers when he started ‘Everything’.

"All I wanted to be was a hockey player, but I then became a singer in a suit. How can I go from a scrubby nothing to some poofy guy singing love songs? For all you men out there, I’m sorry for making you sit there and sing lines such as ‘I’m your man and I get to kiss you just because I can’. I’m going to sing something for you now to get your testosterone back ok?"
- Michael Bublé before doing Elvis’ ‘Alright Mama’.

Half way through that, he asked the guys if that was better and he then said, “I’ve got another song to get even more testosterone going. You can’t get any manlier than this”. He then broke out into the ‘Y.M.C.A.’ and everyone was doing the arm-letter things it was actually really good! As the night was coming to a close then, he played ‘Save The Last Dance For Me’, followed up with ‘How Sweet It Is’ then ‘That’s Life’. He then walked off the stage before coming back for an encore with ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love’ and one other song but I can’t remember the name of it for the life of me!

The show finished at 10.30pm-ish and I went to the loo before attempting to get to the car. I eventually left onto the main road at 11.25pm before getting back here at 11.50pm. It is another live performance that I have seen that I can honestly say, how they sound on a CD is exactly how they sound live! It is now 12.21am and I’m about to go to bed!


Michael Bublé - Home
Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

Let me go home
I’m just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life
It’s like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not come along with me
That this is not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I’m surrounded by
A million people I
I still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I’ve had my run
Baby, I’m done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It’ll all be all right
I’ll be home tonight
I’m coming back home

First of the Month! [Jun. 1st, 2008|08:36 pm]
[Current Mood | excited]
[Current Music |Paulina Rubio - Si Tu Te Vas]



Welcome to the first of June!
Winter is finally here among us and it actually wasn’t that bad today.

Yesterday, I cleaned up my room and can actually walk from the door straight to the bed and not trip over anything. It is actually a little strange!
I’ve nearly finished knitting my scarf too! I shall take a pic of it for you once it is done! :-) I’m proud of it as it is the first thing I’ve knitted that has stayed the same shape the whole time!

Today I went to visit Dad and Rob and drop them over a book and we went to Brookside Shopping Centre.
They gave me their pizza tray as they don’t use it so I had pizza for dinner. It was actually quite a good pizza. I got ‘Family Guy Uncovered’ today and am in the process of watching a few episodes of that. Great show that one! Hehehe

Tomorrow is the day!!! I’ve waited for this concert since December!!! 6 months!!! ARRGH!!! And the worst thing happened. I put the ticket in the safe and [stupid me] forgot the combination so I rang Mum but she wasn’t sure so I got in contact with Nan and she told me! Thank God for that! I kinda said, “Hey, how are you? By the way, what is the combination for the safe so I can get my ticket for tomorrow night?.” LOL! Thankfully she remembered! The concert starts at 8pm so I’m leaving here at 6pm so I have heaps of time to get there, and buy a shirt and hopefully go to the loo before it starts. Nothing worse than having to pee during the show! Then once it’s over, I’m prepared to stay in my car in the lot for at least 30 mins until the traffic getting out dies down and I can get out! Thankfully I don’t start work until 8.30am on Tuesday!

Anyway, I’m off. I’m leaving you with the lyrics to my favourite from Eurovision 2008 from Latvia with ‘Wolves of the Sea’ by Pirates of the Sea.


Pirates of the Sea – Wolves of the Sea
With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

Don't try to run it's all set and done
There's treasure in sight
We are robbing you blind I hope you don't mind
We are taking it all tonight

Just walk away we will conquer it all
Pirates will stand and the loser will fall

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

Down to the core we're coming for more
With a sword close at hand
We are scary and bold, a chest full of gold
We get sea legs when sighting land

The hook of our captain is looking at you
There's no Peter Pan, so what can you do?

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

If you cry out to storm, we pirates will stand tall,
A skull and crossbones flag is closing in to see you fall

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi, hi ho and a hi, hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea
We are wolves of the sea

HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY!!! [May. 30th, 2008|09:55 pm]
[Current Mood | happy]
[Current Music |Duran Duran - Girls on Film]



Today is my 20th Birthday!

Today was a good day.
Work went quite quick indeed.
Mum, Chris and I went to Lonestar at Aspley for dinner, which was really good. The prices there have jumped since we were last there. I think next time we might go to somewhere like Fasta Pasta. I got $25 from Nana L, $40 from Dad and Rob, and my ski suit and dinner from Mum and Chris.

We got home around 7.20pm and Natarsha called. Mum and Chris left around 7.40pm and Tarsh and I talked until around 9pm-ish. It may have been later but I dunno. It was good to talk to her again!

All the people that wished me a happy birthday are my real friends, even though they are family. Not one friend from school said anything, even Erin who I’ve known for 14 years this year... That hurts even though it’s been nearly 6 months since we saw each other last... That really hurts.


Johnny Depp & Helena Bonham Carter – My Friends
Sweeney:
These are my friends, see how they glisten?
See this one shine, how he smiles in the light,
My friend, my faithful friend...

Speak to me, friend; whisper, I'll listen.
I know, I know, you've been locked out of sight
All these years! Like me, my friend!
Well, I've come home -- to find you waiting!
Home, and we're together...
And we'll do wonders...
Won't we...?

Sweeney
(Mrs. Lovett)

You there, my friend,
(I'm your friend too, Mr. Todd.)
Come, let me hold you.
(If you only knew Mr. Todd.)
Now, with a sigh,
(Ooh, Mr. Todd,)
You grow warm in my hand...
(You're warm in my hand...)
My friend,
(You've come home)
My clever friend...
(Always had a fondness for you, I did...)

Rest now, my friends.
(Never you fear, Mr. Todd.)
Soon I'll unfold you.
(You can move in here, Mr. Todd.)
Soon you'll know
-Splendors you never have dreamed all your days... (Splendors you never have dreamed all your days-)
(Will be yours!)
My lucky friends!
(I'm your friend-)
Till now your shine
(Now you're mine!)
(Don't they shine beautiful?)
Was merely silver.
(Silver's good enough for me,)

Friends,
(Mr. T...)
You shall drip rubies,
You'll soon drip precious...
Rubies...

Sweeney:
AT LAST, MY ARM IS COMPLETE AGAIN.

Sweeney Todd soundtrack! [May. 29th, 2008|05:06 pm]
[Current Mood | happy]
[Current Music |Sweeney Todd soundtrack]



Haven’t done much in the last week,
Yesterday, I finally bought the ‘Sweeney Todd’ soundtrack and I’m happy that I did! Finally have something different to listen to and I’m very grateful that Johnny Depp has a really good voice. I also got the ‘City of Angels’ soundtrack. I love the song ‘Angel’ by Sarah McLachlan. A favourite indeed... Hope you are all well!

Today was a rush and a half due to the fact that Powerball is $40 Million tonight also with the $19 Million Superdraw on Saturday...


Sarah McLachlan - Angel
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There’s always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh, beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty oh
And weightless and maybe
I’ll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees


In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
