I got a strange gift for my birthday from a supplier *scandal*

I open the GIANT box, thinking it would be chocolate, only to find a perspex box. With a strange stuffed creature (for want of a better word) named 'Chuck' holding a Chupa Chup inside.

After some conjecture, I finally find out what 'Chuck' is. And I am amused.

Interesting

I find cemetaries, particularly old ones very fascinating. Nothing ghouhish, just the artistry of the headstones and some of the epitaphs.

I got to visit one of the oldest cemetaries in Sydney on Australia Day, a site where some of the first settlers were buried after they settled out in Castlereagh, Old Castlereagh cemetery apprently dates back to 1814.

One of them has this written on it;

Now she's gone, we'd not recall her
From a paradise of bliss

Where no evil can befall her

To a changing world like this

How far is too far

Surely a theme is always nice for an event?
A cool non compulsary theme, that people can immerse themselves in as much or as little as they like.

For instance, my birthday coming up is at a Chinese Karaoke restaurant. I started to think about what I was going to wear, and thought... 'Wouldn't it be cute to maybe dress with an Asian feel'
This has since mophed into me looking at buying a China Doll wig & and Obi Belt (because the Japanese do karaoke too ok?!)
But how far is too far? I ask you?!?

It's movie, it's movie time!

Shockingly enough there are a few movies, I wouldn't mind seeing at the moment.

'He sees dead people... and they annoy him. '

I cannot wait to see Ghost Town - I love Ricky Gervais, I cannot control my laughter in anything he's in Extra's, The Office. Love it. Greg Kinnear I can take or leave, he's probably fairly under rated as an actor but he looks really good in this film.
I am slightly concenred, because it was writen and directed by David Koepp, who did the most recent Indiana Jones also of War of the Worlds, Spiderman, Panic Room fame. Bit of a mixed bag but fingers crossed! Pre released this weekend, so if I get the chance I might take myself off to see it.

Shamelessly I am also looking forward to seeing He's Just Not That Into You.
Writen from the book, which shot to fame after it's mention in Sex and the City. The cast is the definition of star studded.
Ginnifer Goodwin, Scarlett Johansson, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Connelly, Drew Barrymore and even a camero by writer Marc Silverstein.I know it's probably not destined for greatness, no Oscars in the offing but I am hoping that it will be entertaining enough to not be a waste of $16.50.

Self Indulgence

For my 25th birthday, (I warn people now, I do not want to hear the phrase 'quarter century)I've been thinking about gifting myself some 'silly self indulgent' photos.

Not the regular run of the mill, slap on some paint, point and shoot ones through. Lovely but boring.

I want something I could frame, and almost have people not know it was me. Artwork even, but not in the traditional Leo painting Kate kinda way.

Much to my joy, and then dismay, Vaig have a whole section of body art (some of which are not my cup of tea) but some are almost exactly what I want.

My dismay enters, where I swore off Vaig for being horrid rip off artists who conned my cousin into something she couldn't afford.
But pretty cool eh?

Life as a Dreamer

The Dream, Henri Rousseau, 1910

I had a strange and vivid, almost reoccuring dream early this morning. I woke up at 5am and went back to sleep heavily, and dreamed.

A version of the same dream before I am sure, I had a definate sense of deva ju when I woke.
A friend and I were running down through Sydney Harbour, and down all these docks. Eventually we start running over all these little wooden wharves floating on the water. The docks started getting further and further apart, and eventually they get so far apart we can't jump onto them and fall into the water.
We start swimming, and in this case (increase strangeness factor) we end up in Goulburn??? ODD. Dad assures me you probably could swim to Goulburn, via rivers etc, so that makes me feel less silly!
Wonder what it all means?
