So cute, I think I just died..

Spring Has Sprung!

Well hi there, September. You sure came 'round awfully quick.

With just a matter of weeks until Spring break, I cannot possibly focus on schoolwork of any sort. The decision between homework, and oh let's say, sleeping/eating/blogging/excersising/reading/writing, for example, is surely a hard one.

Sarcasm, just in case you missed it.

Instead, all I can focus on is..well everything but school and homework. There are so many things I'd rather be doing, and so many things that need doing, that my list would go on for eternity. For example, suddenly I have the urge to build a veggie patch. A little one, in a wooden garden bed, complete with carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, onions and snow-peas. And I want to have little hand painted signs above each different section of veggie plants, and have the whole thing fenced off from my Godzilla-like rabbit. He likes to ruin anything and everything I cherish. That, or he'll pee on me. I swear, one day I'll pee on him.

Aside from the veggie patch, I want to paint my bedside table and my little step-ladder. I'll paint them white, so they match everything else in my bedroom. Then once I've painted them, I'm going to add some more wall art to my walls. I still have that huge canvas that I plan on painting over, and perhaps writing something on it. Something like 'Be The Wonderful Change'. I heard that once, and it inspired me. It's what I've always wanted- to be the change in the world, as little as it may be.

After I do that, I'm going to pierce my ears again- at least once over the Spring break. I intended to add three more piercings to my ears, before I eventually stop. *sigh* If only my other upper-ear piercing hadn't ripped out, I'd only have two more to add.. not fair.

Then I plan on finishing the unfinished. My patchwork blanket I was knitting, not to mention the scarf, the book I've been reading, and the book I've been writing. Okay no, I definitely wont finish the book I've been writing, but I sure need to work on it. Perhaps I could at least think of a title..

But also, simply because the weather is so beautiful and the blossoms are out, I'm going to spend a day in the Carlton Gardens. I'd love someone to come with me, but I'll go alone if I have to. Carlton Garderns is my favourite place in the entire state I think. Especially in Autumn, but Spring has to be just as good. Maybe I'll even go to the museum; my second favourite place. I know it's nerdy but I will never tire of it. Yes, I think I'll pencil that in somewhere..

Oh hurry up Spring break! I can't take this any longer..

A Week Of Vest-Pocket Discoveries.

"Enlighten me." my mother would say, when I approached her with some fact/statement/declaration.
These past few days have not failed to do just that. Here are a bunch of my vest-pocket discoveries.

  • Natural peanut butter= looks like diahorrea, tastes like gold.
  • Avalanche City write the most wonderfully cute love songs.
  • The best way to make coffee is to add the milk in last.
  • I do things I regret, and I think of things I wish I'd done differently, and spend hours/days/weeks/months beating myself up for it. Lesson learnt: Change and keep going. You can be a different person tomorrow.
  • Tea cures headaches.
  • Pregnancy terminations are free with healthcare cards.
  • Worrying never gets you anywhere.
  • I actually don't like yoghurt very much at all.
  • Happiness is a choice, not a destination.
  • 'Nice 'n' Natural' Caramel nut bars are, in fact, not very nice (or natural) at all.
  • Drawing releases stress.
  • I involuntarily make odd faces at myself everytime I look in the mirror. The fact that I only recently realised goes to show it's likely to be another one of my absurd habits..
