i hate it when people dress up for their exams... fair enough if its drama or music... but maths?
i have absolutely no idea what mood i am in at the moment. and it's making it very difficult to choose a CD to listen to. So here I am, sitting in the dark because my conjunctivis ridden eyes prevent me from sitting in bright rooms, and i have no music to listen to. it is dark, and quiet and i am lonely.I can smell steak or something being cooked outside. it kind of smells like a BBQ which reminds me of summer. I'm not sure why, because we don't have many BBQ's in summer, but our neighbours do. so i guess thats why.
This daylight savings business is really weird eh? it's 7.30 and still quite bright outside. i know i've been through 17 of these changes, 34, if you count the returning to normal ones... but it's still such a shock each year.
ok. so i took a break for dinner, and it turned out i had sausages - not steak. oh well... my nose is blocked so it changes my perception.
i think ben lee is playing in melbourne tonight. and well... i'm not going. and i am sad.

fuck everything and rumble
ian brown. as in, THE ian brown, is coming to melbourne on January the 8th, he'll be playing at the forum. but i have no one to go with. i'm sad. and yes, i'm crying, but thats the conjunctivitis - i swear!Saturday, October 29, 2005
that boy he can please us, like four kinds of cheeses
i have good news. and i have bad news.the bad news is that i have conjunctivitis, which is a big sigh of relief after thinking i had bird flu. well, not really - i just woke up blind going "well this just sucks."
So i went to the doctor who put me on antibiotic eyedrops. fun.
the good news is that you know the dude that i've liked for a while now and last week or so, i asked him out - well, i got a clear answer this morning. news will follow. but it's really good news. yey! go team emma! - man. i feel like a little year 8 or something. argh.
must be off. study study study. woo!
- Em
|| NEWS UPDATE ||
more bad news - on muck up day, i took a taxi to school, and they didn't charge me, well i just found out that they have. i just checked my account to find that they charged me $23 today.
so can those taxi goers please pay me. please.

i'm too lazy to take just 2 steps towards my CD player to change discs so i'm listening to the Dandy Warhols on repeat.
I had my first real 2006 unit 4 exam today. It was quite pleasant. I liked it, however, come results time, i may wish to burn the paper.sorry for yesterdays rather rude post. it was my form of relieving stress. and no, i am not going to remove it, i don't believe in removing posts, thats like ripping pages out of a diary.
I'm such a geek. I mean honestly, not only do i keep a diary, but i broadcast it around the world via the internet. meh.
Something i found rather amusing today was in the exam, i was writing about how email beats pens anyday, and i was refferring to the fact that we don't use fountain pens instead of ball points, so why should we write letters instead of emails. Yet at the time, i was writing with a fountain pen, instead of a ball point. oh well. irony - you learn to love it.

p.s good luck angus! guess what everyone, he's gone for a weekend long job interview!

my life is disgustingly tragic because...
after seeing this picture of meat made to look like the face of a bear
i have a craving for salami. but i will resist the urge to walk 10m to the fridge... resisting... trying sooo hard... not working...- Em
p.s before i run to the fridge, i would just like to say, ben lee was really sexual on the glasshouse tonight
p.p.s the observant ones may notice that i am stamping out the "xoxo" at the end of my name. i have realised it's totally ghey. But have no fear, i've been prescribed addiction patches to wear at night to stop the cravings, and i chew gum now during the day, especially around blogging times.
my life is slightly less tragic than yesterday because...
today i bought my BDO ticket. but i am still sick. We also got a new register at work, and i was excited because after a thousand IT lessons where we would use "a supermarket chain is getting new cash registers, what system conversion method would they be best using, and what sort of training would be best suited to the situation?" as an example, i now know first hand what the answers are. Even though today the dude that installed and trained us did it in a shit way.- Em xoxo

my life is super tragic because...
i would have turned out to be so much better if i was born a male.- Em xoxo
my life is almost as tragic as before, but not as much because...
almost all Sydney Big Day Out tickets have sold out. So now I have to fork out $115 so I can get tickets to the melbourne one, as you never know when they will sell out. wah.- Em xoxo
my life is even more tragic because...
the dandy warhols are doing a free gig at the Vic Markets the night before my psych exam - resulting in the inability of me being able to go.kisschasey are supporting the free gig. that means that i can't see/hear that sexual lisp in real life. how sad.
- Em xoxo
my life is tragic because...
today i got really excited because i worked out that the supermarket guys in the "catch my disease" video clip are also the ones with the skipping rope, and one of them is the guy inside the red animal suit. I also have my suspicions that one of them is also the box person and the rabbi - but i have no hard evidence for those last two.my life is also tragic because today at work i got realy excited because I thought Izzy off neighbours came in. But alas, it was just her spitting image twin type person. Did I tell you all that Paul Robinson came in on sunday morning? He's not as sexy as he is in neighbours. actually, he's just plain old. but meh. he's still got that evil sexiness about him.
Now I must go listen to the rest of the CD's I bought. Did i mention that yesterday I spent $70 on CD's. *slaps wrists*
I feel horrible now, een though they are all awesome records.
- Em xoxo
p.s i'm also annoyed right now, as I have to write an official letter to Mr Muller, because I was at school before 6am on friday. You see, our school got trashed on muck up day, so yeah. ARGH!

- Em xoxo
Emma's Awesome & U can polish my horn anytime
just got back from work. i burnt my thumb. it hurts. and right now i am procrastinating calling... someone.Yesterday all I did was work. I slept, woke up, packed the tent up, went to work, came home, napped, ate and slept some more. Why am I sleeping so much? BECAUSE I HAVE NO MORE SCHOOL!!!
That's right. I have finished school forever and ever, and ever.
I finished all my classes on thursday. Here are some assorted pictures from the day.
The above one is of me and my little dude that I made in Year 4, thats on a mural in the junior school.
music was my last ever class, and it was a really cool way to finish my life at school. Then that night we all went back to school for the carnival. There was a jumping castle that no one jumped on, and a lot of water wasted from a very large water fight.Here is lisa - in typical a typical lisa fahion, chasing after someone and throwing large buckets at people with large underwear.
This next one is of the jelly eating competition. Click on it to see the beautiful expressions on peoples faces.
And the following is Megan with my immitation piss-weak Super Soaker. Actually it probably didn't even have the force of piss. It was like a dribble.
And here is a picture of Polly after printing our hands on a sheet. The paint was something like food colouring, soap powder and water.
after that, the dudes (Me, Megan, Salona, Amy, Polly, Lucy, Larissa, Isabel and ahh... Maller) came back to my place for celebrations. It was quite subdued, but fun none the less.We all squished into a mega tent c/o Megan's Mum, and drank, gossipped, reminisced, drank, played "truth or fib" which later turned into truth or truth, and eventually, we slept - for like an hour. (hence my current sleepishness.) At about midnight, or just past - there was a big bang, followed by a blackout. This wasn't fun. For a few minutes we sat there in silence waiting for an axe murderer to come and chop my fence down. But then we decided to go and explore, as we heard sirens. So Lucy, Salona and myself decided to run half way to the end of Centre Road, but then we were puffed, so we came back.
The photos of this event are mega poor as in... there were none, except one where i accedentally pressed the button on the camera, and scared everyone. So there are none of the blackout, just some random ones of the tent and stuff...
Then we all got up at 5am to go down to the non-existant beach party. We went via taxi. Which i think was free, as i just checked my account last night and they charged me $23 then credited me $23 - so woo!So we went up to school, and found that it was totally trashed. The bits that were actual pranks were mighty cool, like the undie everywhere. But some dicks decided to trash the place, and smash windows and what not.
Does anyone have a picture of the tree?After that we went down to hampton street, came back in time for the valedictory breakfast. Which was yum. Here we sat around and talked, ate and eventually got our time capsules that we made in year 7. Mine was piss weak. I'll take pictures of it later when i can be bothered.
Here are some photos I prepared earlier.
Above is my time capsule. I don't know why I drew penuts. I don't even like penuts.
Then we had speeches. That was fun. Some people cried, I almost cried watching other people cry. It was really sad yet happy.After that we got our memorabilia, and got our dresses/shirts signed. There were some awesome comments on mine. Some standouts were Pats, Lachlans, Toms and Sarahs, Salona's and Lucys. I had such a good time that night reading them all. Thanks guys!
Then I had to scedaddle, as I had work. Joy. Then yeah... the rest is pretty boring. I slept, and woke up, and yeah, as above.
In the end, it was a sad few days for me. I did cry, but on Wednesday. I thought i would be able to hold the fort until at least friday morning. But I then let a few go on thursday afternoon when the bell rang.
I've had a pretty awesome time at school. St Leonards really was fantastic, even though I had some pretty shitty moments, but hey - c'est la vie!
I think the one thing that has gotten me through it all has been my friends. From Prep when I had Lisa, Zoe, Azza - to grade 2 when I met Charl, grade 3 when I became mates with Brodz, grade 4 with Katherine and grade 5 with Pol, grade everything else for the rest of my plethora of fantasic friends. I love them all.
My teachers rocked too. well, with a few exceptions. But there were some pretty awesome teachers throughout my school life. And they rocked.

Last Day :(
Hello
This post was by Salona as she is uncool, and she is in IT at the moment. and she isn't cool because of that.

2 more days.
i'm going to see the hives tomorrow night. I'm really excited! Last time I saw them they totally rocked - so it should be great fun... if I get in.Today was good. I learned two maths chapters in about an hour, which was fun, really, it was. I was really proud of myself.
You see; my brain just doesn't understand business maths. It probably does understand it, but I just have no actual want to learn it. So i have, under the guidance of my maths teacher, decided to learn another module, instead of business maths. So, I did a practice exam today with my new information, and I got 9/15. Which I thought was pretty good, seeing as though I still have one more chapter to learn. This is a much better result than my 3/15 on business maths. So this should bring my mark up heaps... hopefully. But I think I will just have to make my mind up on which module to do when I get into the exam. I was really shocked when my maths teacher told me to learn this other module instead. Apparenlty it's much harder than the others. But I figure (without sounding super cocky...) i'm smart enough to hack it, so why not. I'm looking at an A or an A+ without Business maths, so it's really only just dragging my score down rediculously.
Enough about maths. Today I had to say a few thankyou's to a few particular people. One of those people happens to be the person I asked out (the one with the really sneaky response) and they told me that they had a present for me too. So Woo! thats a good sign right? I'm totally happy about that. Last night at speech night they told me I looked good, or something along those lines. So I think i'm heading on the right track with this. Woo!!! I'm happy.
I must go study now. blah.
I hope all those people that had SACs today, went super well, and good luck to those that have SACs still coming up. man, that totally sucks.

now wasn't that just dandy?
I've just returned from speech night, and boy was it a blast. *cough* ummm... yes, maybe not.I managed to be up onstage for the majority of the evening. What a joy.
I was a bit sad at the end when I walked off stage, knowing that I'd never play again with the people that I had been playing with for the past 5ish years. And like Rosie said, it's the end of an era, as 3/4 or the trombone section are leaving. It'll just be little her to hold the fort next term/year. I really want to go back and play in stage band.
My father decided to come to speech night tonight. which was odd, apart from taking me to school most mornings, he's never had an intrest in my school life. In fact, the other day when I had my music exam, and amy and I got in the car to go home, he goes; "so what did you do today? music practices or something?" - at least he picked up the fact that it was music related as we were carrying various musical instruuments to the car.
So we played some procession song, which sounded fairly militaristic, then Advance Australia fair. After those two "beautiful" performances the St Leonards College Symphonic band rocked out into 'Procession of the Nobles' - now, I WAS supposed to have a 2 - 3 bar solo here, but Mr Bain decided to play along as "it looked fun" so it turned into a duet. grrr. he's a good guy though, and knowing me, if he wasn't there to play it with me, i would have fucked up. And the super valve pushing and slide waving from me and Rosie at the end kind of turned out well! That said, it's always perfect on her behalf, but man, i don't think one person could move their arm any faster than I have to then.
I would also just like to make a point that Tom, the boy in my brass group who ALWAYS forgot his music, decided to leave his tuba mouthpiece at home for the performance, so his mother had to race back to Black Rock (from clayton) to get it for him. That boy annoys me. Good kid though, his heart is in the right spot... most of the time.
Then we played the school hymn. Damn sharps. I hate key signatures with sharps. Whenever brass players see sharps, they freak out. It's not normal!!!
Then after Wendy's speech, Al's speech, Roger's speech and the year 10 and 11 speeches, it was time for the stage band to play "Sweet Home Chicago" (amy's favourite song in the world)
Because I made the stupid decision to stand, I then realised that playing over the stand is harder than it looks, so I ended up just playing the entire thing off by heart. Which was cool, as I got to watch the audience. Lucy was hysterical, that is all I can say.
After that I had to scedadle, as the year 12's were expected to recieve thier little book things.
Oh, but before that, well done to all the award winners! especially Gus with that super snazzy outdoor ed award. And was it just me or were those caltex award winners really... cool. especially the taller one ;)
Yes, so after the 180 odd year 12 students got their awards, and the new student council was announced (which I wasn't so super keen on, but meh. thats mostly because I detest nick henry. ugh.) it was time to go. which was sad. very sad indeed.
So I gathered my things, tried to find my trumpet playing friend, but failed. Then went home and ate chocolate buscuits.
- Em xoxo
p.s i was curious as to why so many people were coming to my blog via Emma Watsons name, so I typed in "emma watson naked" (without the """) to MSN and this site came up 2nd. Woo!
congrats mrs a. really, congrats.
so, tonight is speech night. how fun. It will be a bit sad though. last speech night and all.Everyone has to listen for my solo in the procession of the nobles. it goes for 2 bars and its totally hot. It's the last time I will ever play my trombone this year, well the last time when its infront of people ad not just playing whatever in the depths of my room. It will proabably be the last time I'll ever play with Joss. That's sad. And the last time I'll ever play with Mr Bain. Thats almost even more sad, possibly equally as sad. Oh, I'm teary. how embarrassing. i must collect myself before i continue.
So today was awkward for many reasons. Mostly the awkwardness surrounded a particular indevidual that I asked out last week. Meh. I was just saying to angus that i'm very stupid for asking the particular person out as next year I will be surrounded by hot university people!
In IT today, Salona wrote a message on the board for my to figure out, as it was in code. And it ended up saying "emma is hot for ________" except she randomly added an "f" into their name. so it confused me.
Wah. I want school to be over, but i still want to see all my mates each day. I'm getting really sad. I'm also really really sad about tonight beign the last time i'll play with my trombone friends. It's weird.
- Em xoxo
p.s anyone trying to work out who i asked out from the amount of spaces in the name above, you have to take out one letter to accomodate for the added "f"

i am relatively happy
yes, i am happy, some will know why, others won't. and i'm not willing to post my happiness on the internet just yet. however, i will post this;You are like the Eagle
Boring, bald and the biggest party pooper ever! People getting this result probably won't post it, and if they did they'd deny the likeness. I suggest getting a life.
Which sorry excuse of a Muppet are you?
Yes, I deny the likeness.

p.s at least they got my monobrow right.

more rosie coincidences.
i am two years and exactly one month older than her. as in, we were both born on the 22nd.she is cool. and so am i.
- Em xoxo
p.s i (slash whats-her-face who lost it in the first place) found my record book today. so the last time i had it was in june - mid june... and now i have 7 (seven) days left to use it. But do you know the worst part?!?!?! someone stole my Ben Lee poster that was inside the cover. and it was one of my favourite pictures of him. And in its place they drew a penis.
so lets fly
i just got a really weird phonecall. like... really weird.I picked up and said the usual; "hello, emma speaking" and then i hear this movement and clanging of various things. Then this music starts playing. But I couldn't understand what was being said, due to the fact it was in some other language. I don't think it was Japanese, I'm pretty sure it was chinese, because it sounded like the chinese song off princess diaries 2. And i'm really scared that some chinese person is wanting my baby making facilities. Perhaps I should stop calling myself Emma Wang. People may get confused.
Anyway, about 30 seconds after the first chorus, the person hung up. And i'm sitting there like "what the crack?"
It was scary.
Speaking of scary, I had my music exam today. It went better than I think probably. Although, it did sound mega poo. I mean, everything went fine... except for one piece, 'Blaserspiel und echoklang.' in the second movement i think Luke got lost as usual, and lachlan was 2 bars ahead, I'm not sure what happened. And Rosie and I are just like CRACK!!! So i had to stop the piece and restart from the middle. So i'm not sure if i'm going to be marked down heavily for that, although apparently it is good leadership skills, however I did fuck a piece up... but it's better than going of for the whole piece with everyone in different places in the song.
Meh. I'm just going to tell people that the exam was good, even though i'm not 100% happy with it. But i just hate explaining to people it was shit, and why. I mean, I don't want to have to tell people, and most likely they don't want to hear. So there.
must be off. i have... NOTHING TO DO!!! YEY!!!
- Em xoxo
p.s i get paid in a couple of hours, so i'm happy.

happy birthday kate!
sup g's?Today has been a pretty dandy day! First up I actually studied in study period, then I had maths and managed to beat forbes again, this time at being cool. Then I had music. I don't know if someone put laughing gas in our music room, but we were all hysterical. Even Mr Fletcher was totallt smoking crack or something.
At lunch, Megan and I went to find out who was smoking pot when they awarded me an outdoor ed award. Turns out it was Ben after all. how whack is that? ahh well, it's another pretty thing to put on my resume.
After lunch I had double Psych. This wasn't totally titilating like the rest of the day, but I think in the space of 3 minutes, James Elephanty got more girls numbers than he is going to get in his entire life. Ahh well, he's allowed his moment to shine.
After school I had band. This was all pretty good; except Fletch chucked a rager a few times. But needless to say, the slice was yum, it was that chewy chocolate one today with the white chocolate chips inside. Mmm...
Then about half way through I realised that Mr Bain has a super cool new hairy.
Firstly, he's been growing this little beard/goatee thing for a while. But he normally has a shaved head, maybe a number one, or number 2. But today, he had a bleached mohawk type thing. It looked hot. It went super well with his purple suit too. I really want to take a photo of it... but thats kinda weird, so I won't.
Tomorrow is my first exam. my group music performance. It's worth 50% of my final music score. I was fairly chilled about it until yesterdays music class. I don't know what fletcher said, but i came out of the class with major butterflies. Isabel then made the point that the exam is practically equal to the English exam. This just totally freaked me. I mean, we all go spastic when it comes to english exam time. But i'm really chilled for tomorrows. I guess it's because I've been "revising" all year for this exam, where as in english, I only start revising like a couple of months beforehand. But yeah, it's really getting to me now, just thinking about it etcetera.
Good luck to all those dudes who have their Orals tomorrow too. That would be even worse than a group performance, as you are there all by yourself, totally exposed to the examiners, like you are a pig on a turning spit. Whereas I have a giant tuba to shield me, as well as my trumpet boys. I love my trumpet boys, not so much Luke, but the other two are my heros (speshly one of them :P )
Ahhh!!! i'm really nervous now, so I have to stop writing about it otherwise the nerves will get worse.
When I got home this afternoon, I asked my dad if there was any mail for me at home, as I should be recieving a letter from swinburne telling me if I have an interview for the B.I.T course. And he's like "ahh, yes, I think there is one from swinburne for you" - and I start freaking out, and i push him to the door to unlock it, then race out to the kitchen where the mail is. But alas, it was only a conformation letter telling me that they have recieved my application, and they will contact me soon with details about interviews, and whether I am good enough for one.
Wah. I want my letter telling me i have an interview now! Wah!
And I want my music exam to be OVER!!! and I want us to have performed super-ly.

What does Emma have that Angus finds annoying, but others find amusing?
no, it's not herpes. I, Emma was asked to sit down the front of assembly today, not because I was naughty, but because I was getting my half school colours. But they fucked it up and gave me full colours instead. Originally I wasn't complaining, after all - it's full school colours! and i get a little thing in my blazer. But I feel really bad, because I did crap all compared to the other people.The main fuck-up by the school was giving me a full award for Outdoor Ed. HELLO!!! I do crap all in the outdoor ed department!!! especially when compared to those like Angus, Kerrie and Steve, who all have half awards in the field, and they all go on the hikes/trips each holiday and actually do stuff. Angus and Steve even do Outdoor Ed as a subject for crying out loud? How the crack do I, Emma - lazy ass of all lazy assed people... get an award in outdoor ed? Sure, there is kayaking, but Angus is equally, if not more involved than me (even when he doesn't show up to training.)
And Kerrie last year got some school award for Outdoor Ed because she does so much.
The only reason I can think of for me legitimately getting the award, is Bens obvious infatuation with me. Ben is the Outdoor dude at school, and possibly the one in charge of these such awards.
Or maybe he just felt sorry for me.
What made the whole situation even worse, when I went up on stage to get my little certificate and shake Dr Haywards hand - Doc goes to me; "congratualtions, this is the highest award the school offers, you have done very well" - but he said it in such a patronising tone, like I was some sort of retard or something that under normal circumstances I wouldn't recieve an award such as this one unless I had some form of mental or physical disability, and it was awarded because teachers felt as if I was handicapped compared to the other "normal" students.
I think i may have to go and ask if I really actually did get this Outdoor Ed award, because if I remember correctly I didn't put down "full award in Outdoor Ed" on my application, i only put "half award - to be confirmed"
And I didn't even tick the Full award box!!!

fall at your feet
on the Ben Lee Blog I noticed that the only people that comment are female. There is Suzie Q - who I think is planning world domination by gathering peoples phone numbers (!?!?!) and the little 14 year old Rachel. She is infatuated with Ben and has a very interesting sense of humour. There is also Kristy, Bianca, Dreamdays, Stacy and... uh... others. They all comment about what ben has written, and have little conversations within themselves which is nice. They aren't very accepting of others though - for example... me. Which is fair enough, i don't participate in their conversations, nor do I really read them. But occassionally i make an effort to see what they are cracking on about (its common for there to be about 50 comments per post.) and the other day I tried to fit in and say, yes Tim Tams are good - but have you ever noticed that all the people that comment on here are women?Needless to say, my comment was ignored. Well, it was ignored until Ben brought it up in his next blog post. He must have felt sorry for me or something, someone should tell him that i'm used to being rejected so he needn't have bothered.
So now what are all the comments about?!?!?! How all his fans are female and how they all love each other and how females rock and blah blah blah.
However this time Ben Lee mentioned me he didn't actually go "Emma made an interesting point..." it was more like (oh wait, no... it is "interesting"... just no recognition of me. meh. im used to it)
its interesting the comment that so many of the people involved in this blog are women. i grew up surrounded by women, my best friends were always girls, and so much of my audience is female. on top of that my spiritual practise is devotion to the divine mother of the universe! clearly i have some karma to sort out with women! but i think that even early in my musical development i was interested in helping steer the world back to a more "feminine" approach. intuition. compassion. co-operation. often these elements are ignored in a patriarchal society. in those times, we need to correct the balance, to bring back the path of the mother. nurturing. loving. protecting....its quite a journey...On a new note, but still with a Ben Lee theme, read this (c/o the Bens blog.)
Wah. I'm so sick of Missy. Honestly, she's damn talented, beatiful inside and out. But if I hear one of her songs again, I will scream. I hate it how the radio wreaks perfectly good songs. The radio wreaked Gamble Everything For Love, and its starting to wreak Catch My Disease for me. (mind you, Catch was never really a favourite of mine)
me and missy have been planning songs to sing together on our tour so thats gonna be awesome. looking forward to rehearsing with her this week.
But why can't missy go back to being the old "Greed for your Love" type missy. Where I possibly only heard that song once or twice on the radio, and that was on triple J. meh. Maybe her new songs with Ben Lee won't get played, so I can go back to enjoying them. Although, by the sounds of it, they wont be recorded anyway.

p.s Fingers crossed, but I think I may have gotten rid of a lot of the spam problem. *touch wood* but there will still be the occassional, maybe. But yeah, I hope most of it has gone.
p.p.s IS exam this morn was total poo. i didn't even attempt the algorithm that you do from scratch, nor did I do the context diagram, only because i forgot what that was. :S

con sord
So today was totally joyful. 2 maths exams! Woo!In the middle of them I had a brass rehearsal which means I got to spend 2 hours with Thomas the Tuba player. (and 2 hours with lachlan. :D ) and Greg who I think is going through the early stages of male menopause.
However in the second half of the rehearsal Rosie came along so that we could practice Blaserspiel und Echoklang (that means Brass piece with an Echo - for all you non-germans out there)
Rosie, for those that are unfamiliar - came into year 10 half way through this year. she has "the 'S' word" and she plays the Euphonium really good, and the Trombone fairly well (better than I can play Euphonium though)
So she was a bit late as she had come straight from work. Fair enough, the girl has to make some moo-lah somehow. Rosie is a very pretty, friendly and super cool person. She is like me, but better in everyway. I'm sure everyone out there knows someone just like that.
Anyway, so I go to her; "so how was work?" and she replied polietly with your standard "yeah, it was good" - curious to know where she worked... i asked her. And she goes to me "Browns Bakery."
In my head I'm just like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
I swear this girl is my exact twin - just better. Even Angus likes her better than me. even Me, Lisa and Lucy COMBINED!!!
Did I mention she's cool, smart, funny, pretty and talented? She even made it onto the front of the school magazine last week. Although, most people look at the magazine then throw it out. If anyone cares to remember back to 2004 - I was Miss November on the School Calendar. And people look at that for an ENTIRE MONTH!!! - advantage Emma
She's been working at Browns for 2 weeks - but I bet she's way better at me at getting bread and making coffees.

I'm almost as excited about the new Big Day Out website layout as I am about the first announcement which happens... TOMORROW!!! Woo Hoo!!!*Fingers Crossed* Dandies, Benny L, White Stripes, Iggy Pop, Volta, NIN, FF *Fingers Crossed*
I wonder what the design this year will be. Last years was quite hippy, so they might go industrial or something.

Penile Enhancement
Ok. here is the super odd picture from the penis enhancing site.
I really want to know what a woman is doing on a penis enhancement site. Although at a second look they all look like nurses rather than patients. And my memory is crap, in my head the blond guy was latino. my mistake. he looks like a woman actually, except he has facial hair.
Oh well, doesn't stope some people.
Must go call lachlan now. i love that boy. (not like that - well, maybe a little.)

"sweet things and nasties"
Today was interesting. I had to work over at the Toorak Browns. It's totally different from the Brighton store, thats for sure. It has a restarant as well, so I had to take orders and waitress, and clean tables as well as the average coffee making, bread slicing (they have THE most horrble bread slicer in the WORLD in Toorak) pastry gathering, dish washing, sweeping, and constant smiling (it hurts after a while, believe me!)Toorak is home to the snobbiest people in the world. They are even worse than Brighton people.
Today, I was new to the store, as was another girl. It was the Chefs first day, the coffee makers first day and the new girls first day. So 5 of the 8 employees that worked that day were totally new to the Toorak store. It was chaos central. One of the normal toorak employees was the biggest bitch! she was so arrogant too! Plus if she did something that inconvienienced you, she would apologise or acknowledge that she was poo, she just kind of scowled all the time. When her little toorak employee friend arrived they hugged and then she whispered something in her ear. The whisper-ee then turned and looked at the new girl and me with a really bitchy face.
I'm not going back to Toorak again. They are unorganised, dirty and mean. Well, the manager, chef and coffee boy were all nice. The coffee boy, Jack was a munchkin too. maybe i'll go back just for him. ;)
Then I came home and found out that Ben Lee is doing a bunch of Melbourne shows whilst I'm in Byron Bay for schoolies. How poo is that!
I did have a good laugh this arvo about something that you will read in the next post.
