as of late..

book: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - interesting concept and crazy cool illustrations.
song: push me to the floor by the parlotones - my south african friend Casey introduced me to this awesome band. Definitely worth checking out.
movie: the kings speech
recent buy: a ticket to 'lady chatterleys lover' and a watermelon blended ice with coconut jelly from bubble cup
what i want to buy: another watermelon blended ice with coconut jelly from bubblecup, and a red skirt.
addicted to: red lips, curly hair and cinnamon hot chocolate
what i want to accomplish: the perfect pin curl
restaurant of the moment: Rose Garden BBQ, 435 Elizabeth street - this is one of my favourite places to eat when i'm in the city, most of the dishes are under $10 and are amazingly delicious. I normally get the fried rice with BBQ or Roast pork and Duck but i recommend the Spicy Chicken ribs that are to die for.



thanks to Munching in Melbourne for the picture :)

love,

i've been dreaming..

theres a lot that im bad at blog, but i admit that alice is right and one of my worst faults is that i'm terrible at posting.

i know, im a shocker.. i really should make the time, there is no excuse.

i'm telling the truth when i say that not much has happened as of late - came back from america, started school, went to a few parties and spent some afternoons with a picnic or two.. i did go to a nude play but all in all its been as boring as usual..

I've got a new dream though - to go to my dads native south america and teach english to little kids.. I'm not sure if i'd do jungle very well though - i dont like spiders and snakes and i dont really rock the 3/4 shorts and sneakers look (which is all we see humanitarians in nowadays) but whats a dream for? its something to think about one night when im 30, drowning my sorrows in chocolate and wondering what i should do with the rest of my life after a failed career.. i mean hopefully my life doesnt turn out like that but really.. who knows?

i'll be thirty in 14 years..

time is going to fast fellow bloggers..

love,

the aussies made them do it (:

i have to say that a month away from home felt like a great idea 5 months ago when i applied for the Kansas Exchange..

it still is a great idea and i've had the most amazing experience of my life while being here but i am definitely ready to go home..

so i thought i'd list 3 things that i love about this country (thats america for those who were unsure)

1. Teenage driving ; Life has never been so simple! the fact that i can ask Caitlin (my host sister) to take me anywhere and we dont have to wait for her parents to be ready is awesome!

2. New american friends ; my host sister Caitlin and alice's (alice being the creator and writer of Wonder the alice land) host sister Jessica.. I cant imagine being on the opposite side of the world from them in only 5 days..

3. Kick-ass TV ; you know its a wonderfull world when MTV is a free TV chanel :)

and 3 things that i love and miss about australia!

1. Family time! ; because everyone can drive so early on here i feel like family time is quite a rare thing, as opposed to my life back in aus when every night is family time!

2. The indecisive melbourne weather! ; i'd take rain one moment and sunshine the next with no complaints if it meant i wouldnt have to see snow for awhile..

3. Roast Pumpkin! ; strange as it seems, for someone who has roast pumpkin atleast once a week the idea of living in a place that eats pumpkin once a year (on halloween.. pumpkin pie anyone?) weirds me out a little..

so thats all for now readers!
