Today I was a photographer.
I love my community. It’s full of such an awesome variety of people.
Internal Dialogue
Admit it. You all have one. You know, that voice in your head that sometimes says things differently to what comes out in reality. Or simply isn't said at all.
Mine often likes to say 'WTF!' (it sounds like wuh-tuh-fuh! Oxhorn style, or wut-dee-fook) to me, especially when the real me has gone and done something stupid. Like the time I went to go find a plastic bag, and found myself in the bathroom getting toilet paper. The voice in my head said something that sounded very much like this: WTF, BRAIN!
If you've heard that before, it's because I tweet and sit on Facebook more often than anyone cares to know -- and now I see you do too.
Another example was in text messages yesterday.
I realise this is a completely pointless question, but I'm curious. I can't be the only one who does this -- so, give me your examples, and let me take comfort in not being alone.

Friend: "Glad ur nearly home. My gosh i havent been on y. answers all day."
Me: "Haha. Wow. Achievement? I could've been home ages ago, I just felt like preambulating. tis nice and breezy. LOL wow found a box of bananas. Says 'Lady Fingers. Don't go brown in fruit salad.'"
Friend: "Prembulating? Sounds like something ud read in a porn fic."
Mental voice: LOL. What kinda porn fics do YOU read?
Real voice: "EWWWWW. Maree taught it to me. Something to do with walking. ...To preambulate means to walk, though! Or something."

Updating You All On My Life- RANDOMLY-
Unsure of what to say.
Definitely don't know what to do
Who are you?

I'm a bit lost at the moment. I'm enjoying the bright moments and the dull ones equally. No that's a lie. I'm in love with pancake manor, jellybeans and skipping class. (Though I have to stop next week. Assessments are due again so its time to pay attention for a little bit)
On another note I'm now working Monday, Wednesday and Fridays every week til next February so please remember I am not available so I will not twitter, reply to texts or pick up my phone. Urgent matters can be emailed to my work email address which will be provided upon request.
On another note I am addicted to fish world and farm ville. I like my new tools of distraction. Also like Matt. But that's cause hes an idiot and he makes me giggle like a five year old. And looks smoking hot in a navy jumper.
I also find it funny how in life the people that were so important are so trivial now. And the people that broke your heart are someone you laugh at. Maybe that makes me mean but trust me when I say my ex got what was coming to him. Or shortly will.
Anyways that was not meant threateningly. I don't pay more than a fleeting spec of attention to him. Mainly cause I'm too caught up in the moment but sometimes late at night when I'm a little too reflective its nice to surf his facebook note he is still single and now going to the gym too lose those excess kilos.
I'm a bitch. I know. But really you love me even when I'm calling you fat. You're just all jealous you didn't have the guts to say it!
I'm also bailing on River fire for the second year in a row. Matt and I are doing a nice dinner, ALONE, on Saturday night. It seems we run into people a lot when we go out. So I'm booking a nice restaurant and buying a bottle of red wine [SOMEONE REMIND ME TO GET RED WINE] and spending Saturday night with him. I think its time we stop randomly fucking around. Not that I don't want to see him its more that we both work and when you throw uni and friends in we never quiet get around to seeing each other alone. So dinner is penned in so I am unavailable basically til lunch time Sunday.
OH I have a lunch date on Sunday too. Looks like I'm pretty booked actually.Damn.
Oh well
I hope your life is filled with joyful moments that contain debates about abortion drugs, coffee machine using when attempting to buy water [which it doesnt sell], pancakes, website designing and farm ville.
May you live and prosper
Princess
PS: I am getting my next tattoo hopefully on Tuesday [need to book] (Tiffany you still wanna get your butterfly?)
Right, well
Toph has been demanding photos of my room – most likely because he isn’t allowed in it. Which is perfectly understandable. I only let the coolest of the cool in my room! (I kid. Although Queen Anne once snuck in at around 11pm while the rest of the gang stood outside and my parents slept. It was a very, very covert operation, after which she did a dance, a sort of ‘I did it!’ jig, before running back out again, saying she was scared shitless.)
So, here they are.
Photos of the BACK of my door will be withheld, because I can’t be bothered censoring envelopes with mine and Toni’s address on them. You see, I don’t have posters. Just postcards and envelopes, and bits and pieces from sketchbooks. And the QCS Stimulus sheet, as seen above my whiteboard.
For anyone who pays very close attention to detail – as I tend not to – you’ll notice a website open on my desktop with a picture of bottles of waterman ink. I’ve recently really gotten into fountain pens, and have a small collection of inks myself: Pelikan Purple, Lamy Black, Noodler’s Widowmaker (a gorgeous red) and Waterman Green. Tomorrow I go on a quest to find myself some Waterman Blue-Black.
I told you it was a gorgeous red.
(Also, NEIL GAIMAN WRITES WITH FOUNTAIN PENS. He mentioned blue-black ink in Smoke and Mirrors, and I had to go Googling. Apparently he writes with a Lamy 2000. That, or a Waterman “52”.)
Dumb F*** Moments
At the moment I am trying to log on to work. Mainly cause I forgot my time sheet and I do like getting paid. I have loads of bills and other things to, well, pay myself.
I am about to start studying again too. Think I'll clean my room [again] and shower then curl up with some chocolate and my textbook.
Also does anyone else think that Friday's normally result in no work? Like I got stuff done but feel... I don't know, unaccomplished
Oh I got to be someones passport person today! So that was cool
And yeah not much else. really avoiding study
Oh god one last thing;
Angelica: Liz can you process this cheque?
Liz: Sure, sure throw it on my desk
Liz picks up cheque and throws into the jumbled up pile of already processed cheques sitting on her desk.
Randomly looks around
Liz: Angelica... where is the cheque?
One of those mortifying OMG I'm a dumb fuck moments
Princess
P.S: I will stop swearing I swear
P.S.S: ALSO someone be a dear and text me to pack my calculator for my exam tomorrow

You will not be able to un-see this. [Personality- for those who only see a car]
