Some things are amazing

Found this on vinylpulse.com. It's a Blavatski & Son's Automated Kismet Disseminator (fortune teller. inspired by the victorian-era) designed by Doktor A. It looks great. I havnt been up to date with the urban pop culture world for a while (avoiding temptation) went to see what's new and that was what caught me eye. The piece is on exhibition in Detroit.

"This sweet fortune teller piece sucks us into his universe abuzz with wondrous machinery. The inclusion and execution of cleverly thought out details from the realistic levers and handles to the detailed printed instructions on the top of the device up the awe factor and increase believability. Beyond all that though, the piece is FUN to look at and dream about. Finally, the cherry on top here is that Dok loves his work and it shows in numerous ways including the humorous set of printed fortunes, including the sassy "You will purchase art from an English Man" one."

Total Awesomeness!!

The first time I saw this watch, I had to have it, though I had no money to buy it :(. This was 2 and a half months ago. I gave up on the thought of owning this totally rad watch, until this morning. On my way out of my house to get to college, I found a series of notes telling me to- well pretty much run around my front yard and back to my front door where I found this pretty neatly wrapped up yellow (my favourite colour;)) box in my electrical box. It was from Jenn! her belated birthday gift to me (she went through quite a bit to get it, and I totally apprecate every bit of it). I frackn' love it! though the picture does no justice to how totally awesome it really looks, it's a DJ turntable with a broken vinyl record (which acts as the second hand). It's so frackn' neat! and it's Tokidoki! (I love Tokidoki products!). Aw...it made my day and it was only 6.30 in the morning.

I havnt eaten since 12 and it's now 8pm :(

My aunt has gone back to Vietnam this morning, sister and I took her to the airport (I hate the airport), My mum was suppose to come too but some jerk at her work decided not to show up for his shift so my mum had to fill in. Total bummer. Took a taxi to the airport, the dumb guy took the back route to the airport even though I specifically told him to take the M5 (argh, I aint rich!). I helped my aunt with the forms and junk before I had to say goodbye to her at customs (who were pretty ticked off I was in the "restricted" area, oops). Yeah it's going to be weird not having her around, 3months just flew by. I get my room back though, and my bottom bunk and I can now re-set up my vinyl toys (my aunt kinda kept knocking them over while she was around :S). I will miss her.

After getting home I hadnt realised how much I ENJOY driving my car, having total control, just yeah everything. I love my car (yeah ok Jenn, I said it, I LOVE the car, who knew eh?). I have a 5am start tomorrow, should head to bed, til next time, peace!

Happy Birthday to the 2nd eldest

Happy 19th(or 21st in Korea;) )birthday Christie!
I know it isnt a good time for you at the moment to celebrate it, but may it be a good one all the same.

Photo of the Week

Not a recent photo, but it holds great memories. It's the one and only photo I took on the day of my brithday a few weeks ago.

Drove home today after work. All the windows were down so I could feel the cool night breeze and had Mae's Destination:Beautiful playing in the stereo. It felt so peaceful, it was a wonderful feeling, I dont know why I felt that way, but I just did.

Moon festival was yesterday, sadly I didnt go anywhere like previous years because I had work, plus it was pouring down rain yesterday (what was up with that???). I told Jenn a few days ago that I wanted a simple paper, candle lit lantern from Moon fest, but was bummed out cause I had no time to go out and get one. This arvo, Jenn told me, when I get home to check my mail box and when I did rush home, there was nothing inside :( but wait! before you all call Jenn a liar, I ran inside and asked my sister if there was mail and she handed over this white envelope that had a MINIATURE PAPER LANTERN inside!!! I was over the moon, it brought me such joy, it's just those little things, little simple things that make me happy. Rushed over to Jenn's house of course to thank her! and also to drop off some pies and spinach rolls (I know how much she loves those) from my work for her (waste not). It was a great afternoon, I'm still smiling. First official day of college tomorrow, feeling both anxious and nervous about the whole thing. Til then, peace!

Its the little things...

What a wonderful sunny day it was today, loving it! The hot weather today, fantastic! Gosh I love this season and Summer soon to come. The long lazy afternoons, wearing my tees and shorts again (though I've gain weight...damn you winter!), just everything looks so much brighter and cheery :)

I havnt been home on a Saturday in soooo long, and it was great just to relax. to do my own thing, a day off from being told what to do. Had to go vote today, I hate having to do those things and to think people fought for the "right" to vote (obviously I aint a political person) luckily the line was super short (well no line at all actually) went in, wrote the number in the little squares and dashed out. Spent the rest of the day driving around, drove Jenn to the bank and back, went shopping with my sister and came home super exhasted and had a lil snooze before I had to pick up my mum and aunt from their outing. Good day, good day, great way to end my hectic week. Back to work tomorrow, one week without income is hard (petrol prices are a killer!). Until next time, Peace!

What? but!-she!-but!

New friends

Finally got my enrolments done yesterday (remembered my passport, phew!). Met some new friends while waiting in line, so that was cool. Seriously, everyone seemed to already be in their groups I felt so lonely :( until I met Marcella (love the name) and then Nita (I'm sure that's not the correct spelling, sorry). Few things didnt go so smoothly for me though during the enrolment process, or maybe it was just because I was dealing with a newbie...hmm, but all's good, got my uniform and photo ID.

First day of Orientation today (two-day orientation). I was told to wear my uniform...so I was TOLD...I come into the auditorium and practically NO ONE is wearing their uniform, gosh I felt like such a doof (no photo proof :P). but whatever. All in all, good day, met the lecturers, got freaked out about how "difficult" it will be, nearly died of thirst while walking to the other kitchen located in some other suburb and got free food, boo ya!

Earlier start tomorrow (no more staying up late to watch Sweeney Todd). Tomorrow, I get my timetable, text books, knives (mwhaha), learn grooming (yawn) and other stuff...should be FUN! note to self: bring the wagon.

***Free food!***

Prove you're Australian

Enrolment day for William Blue today and I didnt even get past Stage 1 (there's I think 6 stages altogether) of enrolment. I had forgotten my passport at home and apparently that's pretty important. Dumb thing is I actually went back home this morning to grab a belt before I left for the train station. Now I have to go all the way back tomorrow :(.

One year ahead of us as always...dear Nhi had so many looks...
