Hair dresser

I've just had my MOST expensive trip to the hair dresser. $275 and that did not include any products or hair styling accessories. Just some bleach and a cut... the chairs though when you were getting your hair washed were massage chairs which were brilliant. And despite it costing that much, I was the most relaxed I've been in ages. The only problem is that I now have to get some new products (more deniro) and also, next time I am not getting a cut but a full head of foils... more $$ and I've already added to my monthly expenses by adding a 80$ monthly waxing figure. Shivers. I'm going to have to do some very creative accounting.

Oh gosh, something happened over the past week. I don't want to talk about it but I am just wondering what to do about it. I'm very blah about the whole thing. Just so you know, I have issues.

Eureka

Well, my birthday has been and gone. But I had the chance to go to the best ever tourist attraction I've ever been to. And here it is:





I picked the perfect time as it was still light but within 20 minutes the lights were on in the city. It was great. The Edge experience which costs an extra $12, is a 4.5 minute piece of fun. You line up, put on booties, but your bags away in a room then step in to the Edge. The Edge then moves out 3 metres. At this stage, the frost is on the glass. The glass is making a cracking noise. The sound effects of the cube moving is thunderous and even though I'm not nervous, my heart starts to beat and I wonder what I've got myself in to - the cube moved once to on the side so I thought oh if it rocks side to side, I'll definately be sick! But we get out, then the frosting comes off the glass and it's an amazing view. It's amazing anyway without doing the Edge experience, but I feel it's something you should do at least once. We then each pose for photos. Of course, I got a photo printed which is $15 with additional prints 10.00 and of course, it has a crazy pose. It was hands down the best ever night view I have seen in a city and i will definately go back every few months.

Even the lift to get up to the 88th floor was only 38 seconds. 9 meters every second. My ears popped twice on the way down and back up but you couldn't feel at all the lift jerking, the ride was good.

oh Boy!

I'm starting to really dislike this city I moved to. My tonsils are now swelling which means I have been sick since the end of May. Give me a break for creeps sake. I need to go to thailand for some sun. Bah humbug.

Rain fall from concrete coloured sky

That’s it. I’m having to trash all my songs on my ipod because boys stink. Some of my music I just can’t listen to. Poor sophie, I cannot listen to her at the moment. So I now need to trash most of my playlists and put on some happy upbeat tunes as well as some life sucks tunes and some NZ oldies.

I’m definitely going to start with Together in concert with Bic, Dave and Tim Finn. Oh I just managed to find a mini playlist which I’ve already created which pretty sums up my state of mind at present:
Missing – Everything but the girl.
Milk – Garbage
Where’d you go – Fort Minor
Clumsy – Fergie
Sonnet – The Verve

Crowded House will just have to stay on my ipod as will Armand van Helden, but I might have to put some Laura Pausini on it. With all the rain today, I got up and was so grumpy. It’s supposed to rain all week so I hope I can cheer up a bit. Definitely some Hed Kandi love sucks tunes will help. On a brighter note, I have a new friend. It’s a man, he’s 26. He’s from somewhere like Bahrain. Nothing romantic in it at all, we are just friends. So that’s good. I can’t tell you how relieved I am that I can finally start living because I don’t have any exams left. But I have so many bugs I just want to go back to the gym. I’m at least allowed to have one unhappy week! Let it RAIN! (oh don’t get me wrong, it’s not bad enough to listen to Alanis morisette or Alice n chains !!)

Take me back home

I woke up in a good mood. I still feel somewhat asleep, but when I got in and found all the work that people had assigned me, I just want to turn back and head straight home.  Help me because I don't want to be here today. I really want to scream from the top of my lungs Fk this sks.

Time check - it's only 8:40am and I'm in a great mood. I've got so much energy today, the dance music is on and I'm currently seat dancing on my swiss ball. I think I have recovered well from my 2 day illness. But today, still a bit tired, I feel like going out and dancing. I'm actually having a birthday lunch today so my ride will be here at 10am. I am to have a shower, but I'm not going to style my hair, I'll just put it up. But damn, my body feels great it's all waxed and I can't believe how it automatically just makes me feel alive every morning. I've missed this feeling. Hed Kandi is really doing it's bit in my house hold today. I'm getting some mullah' (in an aussie twang) for my birthday. I was thinking of a new apple keyboard, but i might also get myself a subwoofer for my computer. Then I can really enjoy myself :). At the moment I'm listening to Base Ibiza 2004 - it's brining back memories and also reminding me that I have about 1 year till my next international holiday when I visit my friends in Italy. Gosh I miss them. The other night I met some English students. It's really nice to be around young people again because you don't have to care about pretentious twats, you can just go out and party. There was this HOT japanese guy as well. There were other hot guys, but this Japanese guy was SO hot. I'm going to make sure that I don't keep going for the same type of skinny runty guys. I was thinking about it yesterday. I have only (and we are talking relationships here not 1 night stands or anything) had a relationship with 1 guy who has had a body and not been mr skinny, I may be a little bit toned but mostly skinny. What's up with that. But it will be funny, lets see what I'll get next. If it is more of the same, I'll hang my head in shame.
