$bluebear_74: ({ True Blood } Alex: VMAN)$

Has anyone ever had someone add them to Facebook, that you don't remember, but think you should? I had 3 people from high school add me that I don't remember/recognise, but know I should know them because we have mutual high school friends. One I don't remember at all, another I didn't recognise (they didn't use their real name), and another who's name sounded familiar but I didn't recognise.

The first was confirmed that they went to my school when I went through my year book and saw them, the second changed their name with their real one (they we're blonde last time I saw them, and that was years ago), and the third I realised who they were when I went through my year book and school photos (I think I went to their birthday party when I was in grade 1, but that was like 15 years ago).

Went to Chadstone for the first time in months today, was a little disappointed. The stuff I wanted from M.A.C (Hello Kitty Pink Fish TLC (*cries* it's also sold out on the site), and Moon River Grand Duo) and Flirt! were sold out (there's a 50% off sale), and Borders didn't have the book I wanted, even though it said it did and was only $11, but it was just before closing and I was in a hurry so I didn't really look into it. I also wanted to looks for a new dress for my birthday but my Dad and brother came to, and they complain when Mum and I go around looking at clothes.

$bluebear_74: ({ True Blood } Eric: Tru Blood)$

YAY Both the iPod Docking Entertainment System, and the make-up came today (along with a Crunchy, handy since I've been craving something with honeycomb). Still waiting for True Blood to finish. I think I've over spoiled myself for True Blood, when I get bored (which is a lot now I've finished University) I tend to go looking for information. Yesterday I read some spoilers for episode 10 and 11 and I've kind of disappointed myself because now I feel like I have nothing to look forward too because I know what happens (Eric-wise anyway, which is all I care about at this point). I didn't mind the changes Alan Ball made at the start, but now I'm not sure so. I don't like the whole tribunal/Jessica thing. Not to mention what looks like Eric character assassination (by giving some of his traits to Bill).

Is anyone even watching Australian Idol anymore? I stopped watching about when it got to the top 10 when I realised I don't like anyone. This season blows, and I'm not the only one who thinks so. There's no one interesting or unique, just same old, same old.

Eww what did LJ do to the profile pages?

Also I woke up all excited this morning thinking it was Monday. I'm expecting some make-up I ordered online, an iPod docking stereo thing (which we got free with the shaver my brother got for my Dad for father's day, it actually came Friday but no one was home), and True Blood. Then I realised I had only dreamt it was Monday and it was indeed Saturday and I have 2 more days to wait.

Sorry for the lack of updates and commenting as of late, for the past week or so I've just had assignment after assignment due. I've got another due Friday then nothing till after holidays. I need the mini break. Sunday night/Monday morning I was up till 9AM doing an 3000 word essay which was only worth 10 marks, I wouldn't have minded if it was either less words, or worth more marks. You probably probably think 10 marks is ok, but part 2 was worth 5 marks and it was a power point slides of part 1 (the essay), then part 3 was worth 5 marks and was a proposal for assignment 2, which really was 1-2 paragraphs of what you were making (you got 1 mark for just writing your group members names).

There's all these other issues for my Project unit, the clients are total idiots and want us to do all this extra stuff they don't even need because their trying to milk us for work, doesn't help that they have no idea about some things (at least some of the staff are super nice and sweet). Plus my feet hurt because we had a presentation in front of class and my group dressed up and wore heels around Deakin all day (after comments no one came dressed nice last week, yet we we're the only ones this week).

Also why is gas/petrol so expensive? My Dad, brother and I went to fill up before, my car was half full and cost about $45, while my brother's alone was $82!! It came up to $181!! Even with the 4 cents off per litre we only saved $5. LOL The girl at the counter told my brother to take 5 Freddo frogs because they were free to which my brother asked if she was sure, and she told him to trust her and she'll show him. It was because if you spend money in the store you get an extra 2 cents off, and because we had gotten enough petrol that extra 2 cents became $2.50 which was the price of the Freddo frogs. Too bad they didn't have Caramello Koala, I love those.

I've only read some of the leaked Midnight Sun, I don't know why but I've been really "Meh" about it. I really enjoyed the first chapter though. I'm not sure if it's because I've been pretty flat out with assignments or the fact that I know what happens. I also not a fan how Smeyer has blamed fans for the leak when most of them (ie me) didn't even know about it till she commented about it. I'll think she'll still write it (for the money), probably just wanted a ego boost (of fans telling her they still love her after Breaking Dawn, which I did like btw).

Also for some reason as of late I've been obsessed with nail polish, I even ordered about $28US worth the other day (why does O.P.I have to cost so much here and have such pretty shades and cool names). So much for not spending any more money.

Only one more week till Breaking Dawn (in Australia). I've got gaps in my timetable on Tuesday which I'll probably read it in, and I have no classes Wednesday. Still unsure where I'll get the book, I think Borders is cheapest (so far), and I want see if I can see what stuff they are doing for the launch (even though I won't be able to make it because of my Uni workshop). Of course all this also depends on if I don't have a meeting earlier that day, because the only time my group seems to be free, is before the workshop.

Did anyone read the "spoiler" for Breaking Dawn? ( I just knew... )

Also while I was bored I was looking at E.L.F, why does the Australian one have hardly anything the US one has? Plus almost everything is $1 is the US, it's $3.95 here.

Quick happy birthday to

Ok so I ended up going to Chadstone and got everything I needed. Whole family ended up coming along (ok well I might have convinced them to come because shopping alone is no fun). I got M.A.C Studio Fix Fluid in NW20 M.A.C Microfine Refinisher (I love this so much, makes your skin so smooth), FLIRT! Big Blush Brush (also saw the Feather Dust-Her but it's really small, more like the M.A.C 188 than 187), and also The Host. Didn't end up being to use the coupon anyway because the book was already on special. So much for stop spending money, spent over $100 tonight (also used a $25 gift card from my birthday). My Mum said I really need to stop buying makeup, she's right. I haven't started reading yet, but I might read a chapter or two before I go to bed.

I think I might be going to get some Gravy Chips tomorrow. I'm trying to think if there's anything to do in the city afterwards. All I can think of is checking one of the M.A.C stores for a foundation pump since Chadstone was out and it's a pain to use without it. I really wish they where built in like they are with Mineralize Satinfinish.

Also my Dad brought some card board from work home for my Mum. There's a picture of a pig on it, my Dad is a mechanic at Holden so it's very WTF?! He said he doesn't get them, there's other with other animals and a bicycle.

So yesterday was my last exam, it was so-so. My phone alarm went off half way through!! I had turned it off and not realised the alarms still goes off even it's off. I was sitting thinking, "Is someone whispering?" Then I caught on realised it was my alarm, and so does the guy next to me and I quickly shut it off, thank god no examiners where around and heard.

I went and saw "You Don't Mess with the Zohan", very funny. I didn't win anything from the crack the code this time, how sad. Maybe I'm unlucky. Also good some good and bad mail today. My M.A.C brushes came, and I got a letter from the Tax department letting me know I owe them $7000 in student loans. Here's the real kicker, they informed me that it was only last year's, and this years wasn't included, so at this point of time I owe about $10 000-$11 000 in student fees. Someone remind me why I pay so much for torture?

OMG!! They're handing out the Gravy Chip starting this Friday. Must. Have. Information here. My brother said he was going to take Friday off (not just for the chip this was before I read this), I'm going to see if I can get him to go. Have to get there early don't think they will last long.

I had my first exam yesterday. Friend and I left at 6:30AM in case of traffic and all that, plus it was in Box Hill so we needed to find where there was parking and find which room our exam was in the Town Hall, got there at 7:30AM (exam started at 9:15AM), we of course chatted instead of crammed. It was ok, had some things I knew, others I didn't, hopefully I passed (I'm pretty sure I did). My next and last is on Monday, it's the unit I'm worrying about failing, got my results back for assignment 3, was terrible as expected. DAMN I just remembered I still haven't done my STAR (the system we use to pick our timetable). I'll have to do it tomorrow.

I'm really liking FireFox 3, it's prettier and I like the "awesome bar" though it takes a little while to get use to. The awesome bar lets you type part of a word in, for example "gaspard" and all the URLs containing the word "gaspard" will turn up not just the URLs that start with it like in the past. It's really handy for when you only remember part of a URL and not all of it, particularly the start.

I've been spending way too much on make up lately, my almost $100 Sephora order came Tuesday (thanks to the very awesome blowqueen), and I just brought 2 M.A.C brushes (also thanks to the awesome blowqueen). I feel a little better though because I managed to not only save $7 but also got another brush in the process by getting it in the US rather than the M.A.C store here. M.A.C brushes are the best!! Though Everyday Minerals have some good ones (I've been lusting after a few but I've told myself no), I need some new brushes of theirs, my old ones where wreaked after I washed them, the shampoo I used dissolved the glue that holds the hairs together so now the all shed like crazy. I use a lot of their products because their cheap and also great quality. I think I need to put myself on a ban (ok with the exception to the M.A.C foundation I've been meaning to buy for weeks, and maybe those cheap eye shadow brushes I need, OMG I have no hope!).

Look what I saw on Network 10 last night!! LOVE this show.

Ben Barnes was also on Cybershack the other day, they where talking about the Price Caspian game and he was saying how he had do all these grunting noises (and then proceeded to do them). quite cute.

Is it sad that the first thing I did when Doctor Who finished downloading was skip to the end so I can see next week's preview?

I'm thiisssss close to giving up on screen captures. Supernatural was on 10HD this week, I put it on time shift, let it run for a little while so when I came back I could watch with skipping adds. All was fine then the program froze up (it seems to always do it when I want to watch something, but it fine when it's a show I could totally get over is I lost it), it started working again, but when I hit the screen capture button an error came up and I got the "This Program is not Responding" message of doom. I only have half the episode now, up till the point in which the girl's mother contacts her through the computer (in Long-Distance Call 03x14). Do people want me to post what I have? Or just forget it, and hope I better luck next week? Also I have one of the new Jensen channel 10 promos (I think there's 1-2 more out there). Do people want me to post these when I manage to record them all? Their already out there judging from icons I've seen.

I should really be studying for my exam on Wednesday. I feel so unmotivated.

FireFox are trying to break the world record for most downloads in 24 hours. I switched to FireFox from Internet Explorer a few years ago and have never gone back. I love it, plus you can get some awesome plugins for it. Click on the banner below to find out more. Found this via dangerous_47.

Is it me but since Kevin Rudd, aka the Labour Government took over from John Howard aka The Liberal Government, everyone is complaining about everything? Everyone wants them to fix everything now, but things take time. Also Rove mentioned that someone had a complaint about Kevin Rudd, what was it? That Kevin Rudd was working into the late hours. When was having a dedicated Prime Minister a bad thing?

Target are selling FLIRT! cosmetics now, but it's only certain stores, and will my luck once again they aren't selling it at mine. I wish Target would post a list up of what stores do stock them. They have a Feather Dust-Her brush which is like the expensive 187 brush that I wanted to check out. FLIRT! are made by Estee Lauder who own M.A.C, Bobbi Brown, etc. The range it much cheaper in the US, than here, but $15 (for the brush) is still cheaper than M.A.C's $85.

Should I be worried how well David Anders does "gay"? Also I like his new girlfriend much more than his last (maybe it was the whole age thing? I personally feel really dirty for liking guys younger than me. LOL by default I could only fall for Draco aka Tom Felton, he's the only one older than me). Their cute together.

i went and brought Stardust on DVD the other day it was only $16 and I really liked the movie it helped that there was:

Ben Barnes

Charlie Cox

Henry Cavill, who I didn't recognised at first, and I think looks hotter on The Tudors.

Also went to Chapel Street yesterday, wasn't there long because we parked in a 1 hour parking spot, other parking else where was too expensive. So I really only popped into M.A.C and got my sculpting powder (only available at Pro stores), I waited 30 minutes there. There was 4 people working, 2 of those were giving makeovers, so was really only 2 that where serving customers, and because Chapel Street is always so busy (lots of shops, lot of designer stores, and it's sale time too) there was lots of people in the store, and of course each person asks questions about what their after and whatnot. I went to Bloom afterwards because they where having a Back room sale, got some nail polish and eyes shadow, wasn't really much else there on sale. I didn't want to buy anything else from the store front because I already have a $50 voucher for Bloom products at Myer I haven't used yet.
