Oh Rainy, Rainy Day...



Perrin Park is no longer a grassy oval, it's a bloody LAKE.

I'd organized an excursion to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary for my kids today, but I had to call it off. After all that work, too, on tedious paperwork and excursion risk assessment and rounding up signatures of approval from the bosses.

. . .

I'm exhausted but so terribly restless. Ironic, isn't it? Routine just drains the life out of me. Perhaps tomorrow I'll treat myself to that Black Forest cake I've been craving for.

Happy Birthday again [ Kookies ] darling. ♥ ♥

I've taken better photos, but something about this souky one just makes me melt and fall in love with him all over again! x)

Teachers in the whole of Queensland went on strike today, and parents were advised to keep their kids at home as there would be no formal classes at schools.

News link here: [ CLIK ].

Ignorant fucktards who know fiddlesticks about the profession should keep their dumbass comments to themselves.

I didn't go to work because I totally supported the strike and I wanted to check out the rally, but by the time I got to the Convention Centre it was surrounded by police and news vans and the teachers were nowhere to be seen outside. I circled around for a while but unable to find free parking space, I eventually returned home to watch it on the news on telly.



Education Queensland teachers are the lowest paid in Australia compared to other states, and for all the shit they put themselves through everyday, I agree it's time they stopped putting up with shitty pay.

Ohai. You has meeted mai boyfrend?

I love running in the morning!

It's just the waking up bit that's so HARD

We know for a fact that Mariah loves having a good snooze on soft, fat cushions.



I'd be insulted if she didn't look so cute.

Wesident pooch wuvs you

Soccer can be a little frustrating sometimes.

Having trained for years in a sport where scoring depends on the perfection of technique and its execution, I now find myself immersed in a game where technique means nothing without team communication.

It sounds silly, but I find it incredibly hard to yell out someone's name and tell them where to pass the ball, or to holler that I'm open.

Nevertheless, I must be doing something right... MASCA Sydney 2009, here we come :D

You didn't just fly me to the moon

You flew there with me

You + Me = Fireworks baby ♥ ♥ ♥

6 hours and 7 minutes till the big "suprise"!!!

Eddie has just absolutely refused to tell me what he's got planned.
He's let the aunt in on it and she's refusing to tell me anything too.

I can't sleep!! Dying of anticipation, because I know I'll love it, whatever it is, because he knows what I love, because he loves what I love too.

I can't believe I've lived through two entire cycles of the Chinese zodiac chart.

6 hours and 2 minutes to go. Aargh.

I sniffs you

I wish there were a course on how to console people, because I absolutely suck at it.

Winter's here!



Kitteh needs warmf.

Can you destroy yourself by thinking too much?

How do you know when to stop?

The future of the world



... belongs to them.

It's Sunday!

I woke up bright and early with smudged mascara and the underwire of my bra poking uncomfortably into my ribs... I had fallen asleep reading.

Checked Facebook. Facebook is a drag. Sometimes I want to terminate my account and just live on some isolated island far far away with only the people who matter to me.

We had heong piah for brekky. God knows we spend shitloads on junk food at Yuen's, and never have any real food in the pantry.

Went to Pet Stock. Mariah finally got microchipped. She yowled all the way there. It was quick and painless. Daddy was so proud of her and she got to look at the budgies and the fishies in the tank.

Went to the markets at Eagle St Pier, but couldn't find the french crêpe stall. Met Andrew (my CELTA coursemate). Eddie bought three more puzzles from the stall next to Andrew's, they were cheaper than the ones we got from the city.

Weather was beautiful. It's getting cooler, winter is coming.

Went home to grab a rod. Bought Maccas, and had a picnic by the river at our secret spot. Caught a few catties.

Missed soccer because my 15 minute nap turned into a 3 hour one.

Hugged Yi.

Had chicken carbonara pasta for dinner.

Saw Jason Mraz live on Rove.

And now I can't sleep, thanks to my 3-hr nap.

Why u has furry trunk? Look suzpeeshusly liek paw

'Sup yo

Would you have lived life differently if you had known you were going to die?

I wouldn't.

Chillin' at home on a rainy day ♥
