Q&A #1
June 29, 2009 | Filed in: General

Thanks for all the questions. I can’t answer all of them, some were a bit raunchy, haha!

What is your favorite place, you’ve traveled to?
I spent most of my childhood travelling the world. Missed out on a lot of Primary School. But I really enjoyed America, especially Washington DC and Memphis. England was also beautiful. But I would have to say Scotland. Was a very spoilt child, and my parents let my sister and I pick a country we wanted to visit when we were kids. I chose Scotland.

At what age did you lose your virginity?
I waited till I was very much in love. My Mates use to tease me a bit, but I lost it when I was 19 to Richie. I’m very happy and proud that I waited.

What’s the single most important object you own & why?
I have two silver bracelets. I don’t wear when I’m drinking though. But they were given to me by the two most beautiful people that came into my life. They’re not in my life anymore, and the bracelets are all I have left from them. I lost one of them once on a bus and cried for days, luckily someone handed it in.

What’s your dream job?
I don’t really have a dream job. I wanted to be a writer for the majority of my early life. But after studying and going through a rough patch, I realised it’s a hobby and not a career. I’m still trying to figure out what way I want to go with my life. I’m hoping to study again next year. No doubt it will be web design, but I might find it boring because I already know how to do it all, haha.

What’s the deal with you and Chris Cheney?
The deal. Well he’s a rock star and I’m a fan. I first met Chris back when I was 18. I wasn’t allowed to attend concerts until I turned 18 so jumped when I could finally see The Living End. I’ve seen them quite a bit over the years and have met them more times than I can count on my fingers and toes. Poor bugger has had to put up with me. But over time he’s gotten to know me and has said that he sees me as a little sister. Looking out for me in the crowd and making sure I’m not being crushed, saving me guitar picks and he even plays songs that I request. Just some reason he likes me and we get along really well. I guess that’s why he remembers my name. I’m not a scary fan, just up for a chat and a beer with the man.

What was the song you had on repeat when you and Richie broke up?
Uhhh I wasn’t really too cut up with the break up. Seeing that I broke up with him, but I did listen to Moment In The Sun by The Living end quite a bit. It reminded me a lot of our realtionship, just dying more each day that went past. But I didn’t sit on my floor in the dark and listen to depressing music.

Been a reader of your blog for years, wanted to know how do you deal with everything in your life?
Yeah, I probaly haven’t had the easiest life. There’s always drama going on in my life. It’s just one of those things, over time I’ve just learnt not to pull my hair out. There can be times when life is hard but I try and focus and tell myself that things can only get brighter. I really don’t know how to explain it better than that. Just smile and think positve.

What was your most memorable concert you went to?
Green Day. I’ve seen them twice. The first concert I ever went to was Green Day. Of course I’ll remember that night forever. I also saw Green Day in Melbourne for their last show on the American Idiot tour. It was a Christmas present from my Mother. I had a blast, and was blown away when Chris Cheney came on stage and played ‘I Fought The Law’ with them.

Where the hell do you buy your kick ass socks?
Why do people like my socks so much? I buy a lot of my socks online. Or at the Queen Victorian Markets in Melbourne.

I know you and Richie don’t speak anymore, are you friends with any of your other ex boyfriends?
Two of my ex-boyfriends I consider my best mates. Brydon is probaly one of my oldest friends, couldn’t imagine my life without him. My highschool sweetheart is still in my life. Caught up with him on Friday.

When did you start web designing? You’ve been online for soooo long!
I started when I was 13 years old.

Who was your first celebrity crush, and first CD you ever bought was?
I think it was Joshua Jackson. I was more obsessed with him than any other celeb and still think he’s sex on legs. The first CD I ever bought was No Doubt ‘Tragic Kingdom’.

Thanks for the e-mails, comments and tweets. I read them all :)

I have a new theme in the works, but it’s taking a lot longer than I expected. I’m slowly getting better too. Going back to the doctor’s soon for a few tests. But if things don’t shape up I have to see a skin specialist so they can find out what the problem is. Slowly regaining my voice back.

My sister is coming tomorrow to stay with me. I’m so happy about this. Tuesday night we’re going to line up for Green Day tix. No doubt I’ll be twittering all night long. And don’t tell me I’m idiot, already heard it from family and friends. It’s Green Day and I need the best tickets in town.



Blood, Hair, ?
June 23, 2009 | Filed in: Drama, Health

Well my results came back in. And it might sound a bit odd. Because when the doctor told me himself, he even said that this rarely happens to anyone. Anyhow, my blood had an allergic reaction. An allergic reaction to some form of chemical. The tests did not show though what started it. Apprantly it happened quite a while ago, but over time it started to spread around my body. This is what caused the rashes, bruises and cuts. I’m on this medication at the moment that is cleaning my blood. I’m still in pain though, but it can take from 2-3 weeks until I’m feeling postive again.

I’m also dealing with a cold at the moment. My voice is very sexy and I sound quite like a drag queen.

I got a few e-mails this week. Well people complaining because I’m not blogging about my personal life as much as I use to. Well to answer your e-mails guys. My personal life isn’t that exciting at the moment. And for the parts that really are personal, I just won’t post them onto here. I’ve been keeping a low key online and offline for the past few months. Dealing with my health and family issues have kept me busy. And my social life is there, but I seem to spend most of my time now going out on weekends and dancing like a mad man. And I’ve been trying to think of something exciting to post. Hmmm. The best that I’ve come up with? Well I re-did my hair. And this time it’s a lot redder. Didn’t like it at first, but am slowly growing on it. Tell me what you think? And don’t comment on the bad photo. It’s the only recent photo I have, and I was quite intoxicated when it was taken.

For my next blog, I’m going to answer questions. From you. My readers. So leave them on my comments, email them or even tweet me your questions. And you can get as personal as you want. C’mon it’s finally your chance to ask me some tough questions. Until next time my little munchkins.



My Angry Body.
June 18, 2009 | Filed in: Health

I’ve been a moody bitch lately. I’ve been very ill. My body is in agony. I am covered with bruises, and seem to wake up with every day with new cuts on my body.

I went to the doctor on Monday, and he was clueless. He ran a few tests, which were not fun. He thinks my blood is not circulating, but he did a couple of blood tests to make sure. I’m heading back to the doctors today for my results. I’m very scared but I’m hoping that everything is ok. I really don’t do well in the health department.

Below is a picture to give you an idea of what I’m going through. People are thinking that I’ve either fallen off a cliff or have been in an act of physical abuse.

Ouchies



What’s Pissing Me Off This Week.
June 9, 2009 | Filed in: Rant

- Girls on Twitter saying they’re fat and ugly. Ugh shut up.

- Coffee drinkers who know nothing what so ever about coffee. Let me do my job.

- Kasabian on the radio. Commercial radio has killed Kings Of Leon, Kooks etc. Don’t let it be Kasabian next!

- The Chasers being banned from the ABC network for two weeks because of this skit.

- Winter. It’s just miserable. And I’m not a fan of walking to work in the dark at 4 AM.

- Ben Folds touring Australia, and leaving out the place he calls his second home. Which is my home, Adelaide.

- Swine Flu jokes. Seriously. They’re lame, and I’m not laughing.

- Running out of foundation in the morning. And then looking like shit for the rest of the day.

- Being a slack blogger lately. Apologies.
