I'd tap that...

Haha.

Hehe.



Dear Reader,

I had a pretty good day, though it was so tiring. I've been waking up at the crack of dawn this whole week... not happy about that. Today I got up at 8 am to go to the gym with Mum. I had an appointment with Mr. M... which makes gym a whole lot more exciting than it really is.

Anyway I probably shouldn't go into great amounts of detail but the programme designed for me is more than enough to kill. I have a feeling my body will be sore tomorrow... wahhh. My warm up was literally how much exercise I do in a year, isn't that sad haha.

After gym, I went to the city to visit Claire where we walked around for ages, ate, walked, ate, drank, ate... or something like that. For a period of time, we thought we actually died (not even kidding) cause waiters/random people did not notice us. Even automatic doors wouldn't open for us... so we whooshed around the city thinking we were dead.

Corner of Swanston and Collins.

Wow we got served earlier today... amazing.


Food was disappointing today annoyingly, we must find good restaurants to eat at!

Found a beautiful Wayne Cooper dress I want, am very broke. I spent $50 on food today alone haha. I think I need more money... definitely wont be getting a Credit card anytime soon.

I actually drank a long black cause I was that tired.

P.S; I have no stamina for blogs haha

ROAR. Did I scare you? Hahaha this picture scares me heaps...



Dear Readers,

Today I woke up grumpy. Haha it sounds like all my days start off this way, but I hate getting woken up early. I had to wake up at 7.30 am because Mum wanted me to come with her to sit in the car while one of her students drove so I could "learn" from her mistakes and see if I make the same ones.

Mum got angry at me because I was having a sook. She told me that I'm the only one in the family who never gets mad at her so when I do, it makes her extra pissed. I don't think it's fair that she puts different standards for me :( But I like to treat Mum well.

Anyway I was pretty mad because of the early start- and my driving isn't that bad that I have to learn from someone else so sooking seemed like the only option.

The student came and drove, it was quite........ turbulent haha.

I drove with Mum around Burwood, then we meet up with Dad at Boxhill for lunch. I was pretty tired so then we just went shopping for my gym gear, Grandma's birthday present and then went home.

I had work today, which was quite enjoyable. Usually I'm really tired and cranky but today was a busy, yet peaceful day. I got to teach my favourite student haha and that made my day. Also managed to take a photo of him but I would think it was illegal to post it up... not that I am the most law abiding citizen but with my future goals ahead of me, I must to do what is right... for the most haha.

Anyway, I wanted to talk about my favourite brands. The one's I'm really into at the moment are Lover, Woodford & Co, Zimmermann, Nicola Finetti, Karen Walker and Camilla and Marc. Oh I also love Bec and Bridge... and Life With Bird. But the top 4 always steal my heart. I want the whole Woodford & Co winter collection. I love clothes that are delicate, lacy and sexy without being distasteful. Sounds easy to find, but is hard to get right.

This is what I want.


And that's why I need money, hence the reason why I did my tax returns. Am expecting money soon... I wish it were sooner because there are so many things I want to buy.

(This is an apology for having no pictures relating to my day)

Dear Readers,

Today was quite exhausting on the account that I had to get up at 8 am to visit the gym and go do my beep test with a stranger/gym instructor. I was too nervous to have breakfast, so I drank Red Bull and ran out the door.

The reason why I was so nervous is because I am very unfit. I was scared I was going to get 2 on the test and drop on the floor clutching my heart. It was kind of like that...

Anyway I got the the gym at promptly 10 am, where I went back to the gym area to find gym instructor, we will call him Mr. M for privacy reasons. Then I approached the wrong guy and asked him if he was Mr. M, which clearly he wasn't. He then asked me if I was going to be doing the beep test. Pretty sure I was gobsmacked. This is not the first time they have talked about me behind my back...

This is how it developed;
Mr. Z => Mr. M => "Mr. I don't know his name"

And then;
Mr. S => My Mum

Anyway, "Mr. I don't know his name" seemed pretty informed about everything I wanted to do which was a little awkward. He also told me Mr. M had run home to get the beep test because he left it there. That's very cute haha. Anyway, a good looking gym instructor came through the door and I knew it was Mr. M because I could match the voice to him. He sounds/looks like a certain P.E teacher I used to have haha.

He shook my hand which was practically sweaty, I kid (no not really) and then he made me walk outside to the tennis courts. He decided to do the run with me, I got shocking score and I refuse to put it here because I am so embarrassed :(

Afterwards, he told me he'd design a programme specially for what I need to do and then I was free to go thank goodness. That only took about 30 mins all together so I went home and waited for Mum to come home with Thai food. After I ate, I just read books, slept, read, ate... now I'm just on the computer wasting time.

I am sorry I haven't got photos of gym instructor(s) but it would probably be too awkward to put my camera in their face. I'm sure I would've preferred doing this than the beeptest 8 hours ago...


Love, Doro x

P.S: Shipping and handling is so expensive. I get so mad when I think about it...

Dear Readers,

Today I was pretty grumpy. I got woken up by an SMS from an employment agency, then I had to call them up to tell them to go away. After that, they got me so nervous I couldn't sleep.

When Mum got home at 11 am, she wanted me to go drive with her but I really hate driving in rainy weather. I saw a billion crows today (I'm superstitious so I think they're bad luck). Was not happy. Realised I had a dentist appointment tomorrow, but can't make it since I also have an appointment at the gym. And WAS supposed to have an appointment at the employment agency too. I feel way too busy for my liking.

(I just thought I should put a nice picture of me in the middle so you'll stay awake during this pretty boring blog)


Anyway, tomorrow I have to do the beep test infront of a potentially hot gym instructor. I feel quite mortified... when I did the beep test in Year 8, I got a 3.4... in Year 11, I got 4.8 or something around that. And I'm 100% sure I cheated/cut corners to get that much haha. This just shows how unfit I am. Am tempted to get some steroids by tomorrow, anyone know where to get some? I joke. Not really haha.

So now I'm home, reading 'Blood and Gold' by Anne Rice. I started it a few days ago but lost track, now I'm confused about who is telling the tale. This is the problem about not reading everyday. I think my concentration span is very limited.

Today has been quite uneventful.

This explains my mood.


Bye bye, Doro x

Guess we're all Saints...

Dear Readers,

I am horrific with keeping a daily blog. However, I will do my best. I just didn't think it was appropiate to write one with a hangover. Although results would've been absolutely hilarious.

Yesterday, I had Church in the morning... I had to do Altar service which is more entertaining than just sitting down doing nothing because that gets me tired. After Church, I went to Camberwell to find Claire, and I was pretty depressed because there was no more cheesecake at the store she likes, therefore I didn't get to try any.

So we ate at Georges instead, it was quite delicious. Then we decided to pop into some stores, and I bought a beautiful silk/lace dress. Was extremely happy with my purchase.

At Georges with Devil nails



Then we got to her place and I showed her my beautiful Sunday dress from Woodford and Co. Was amazing haha. We just sat on her bed with laptops, magazines and cake. Very content.

Sunday Dress and Clearly

Women multitask. What I do best.

We chat to each other on MSN when we're 20 cm away haha


Claire and I decided to have a little drive around Kew, nevermind the fact that we are still on our L's... it was fun! I like driving her car. I only drive manual but she taught me how to drive automatic, way easier :)

A bit of reversing...

Driving around Kew



So we arrived home again, and started getting ready to go out. We got to Kew Junction, took the tram to the city and went to Tulk. There, we ordered a strawberry daquiri and a long island ice tea. Drinks are a little expensive but delicious enough.

After our session at Tulk, Claire and I decided to head off to St Kilda, that's the place to be on Sundays. We went to Robarta for a quick drink, then Barkley but that's always full and sometimes overrated (the bouncer touched my waist so of course we were leaving haha!), so we went back to Fitzroy St, visited Mink where I drank a Cam Shaft (they made it spicy so I was pretty mad- will tell them next time to lay low on the tabasco).. after that we went to Saint which is a bit of a soft spot for Claire and I, we've had some memories there.

Saw the person who I used to have some feelings for... maybe still do. Who knows really haha. We'll just call him Mr. B for privacy reasons.

It was a bit awkward seeing him because I don't really know what's going on between us, well I do but our situation always changes which gets kind of annoying. I think I am a bit too young to be experiencing the whole 'adult' world and by adult, I'm not talking about early twenties haha. Not being ready for those situations can be really hurtful for the person who mistakenly, devoloped feelings. I should really lay low and do childish things again, or else I'm gonna go crazy.

Claire and I left Saint to go to Robarta again, had to escape from some seedy mcseeds and then we went home to snuggle and cry. Lately, our nights out haven't been as fun as usual. I think we need a change of scenery. Any suggestions?

--------------------

Today, we woke up, fell asleep, woke up and drove to Maccas for breakfast. Then we drove to Kew Junction so I could get to the city and them home. Now I'm home at the moment, but I have work soon which is so annoying with a hangover.

I am hung over.


Annoyingly, I will have to wash the dishes tonight. Sorry for such a long blog.

Dear Reader,

This is me.



Today seemed like an appropiate time to start a daily blog for a few reasons;

- The beginning of a new month
- Net usage is no longer stalked by older sister
- I am not lazy anymore
- July was boring

Now it is currently 5.19 pm, I have done almost nothing today. Woke up at 10 am because reading 'Battle Royale' last night robbed me of sleep (meaning it is scary, I did not read the whole night away haha). It is very tense, but excellent.



After I woke up, I decided to play the piano because it's very soothing and is the only thing I do which makes me feel like I'm actually getting somewhere. I am currently playing 'Somewhere Only We Know - Keane' and 'The Scientist - Coldplay'.



Then I made pizza for my sisters and cleaned my room. I feel so fat. I've eaten way too much today which comprises of lasagne, pizza and strawberries dipped in chocolate. To make up for it, I've only been drinking iced water. Soon, I will be going out for dinner with family and friends. Am not looking forward to it... a bit sick of eating now.

Before I cleaned my room. It was a trashcan.

After I cleaned my room. It's now very tidy.



Anyway, the only eventful thing that happened today was when I started charging my ipod touch, the screen turned white and started flashing. I panicked but now it appears to be okay. It must not like my taste in music.

I thought I might introduce you to my family (not the human ones because they might kill me)

This is Teukie, my catfish. He eats cucumbers and bullies Siwon heaps. But Teukie cleans the fish tank so Mum said we can't yell at him.

This is Siwon, my second catfish. He's camera shy so I can't get a very good picture of him. The difference between him and Teukie is the fact that his fin is damaged (from abuse).

Robert actually belongs to my little sister but he sits closest to me. An incredibly loud canary who goes to bed at 4.30 pm. He likes flicking his seeds because he's spoilt and does not like builders.

This is the mess Robert makes in the morning.


Anyway, today I had a nice surprise. The orchids in my house are so lovely. I love looking at orchids, my mother says that's what gentlemen are like- elegant, graceful and beautiful. Have not met many men like that. I kid haha.. or do I?


I think I may stop writing right about here, I apologise for not having much to talk about, but have no inspiration at the moment (it ran off months ago).
But please do read my blog and leave comments. I like to read.
