Moving

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 10, 2009, 9:31 PM
I'd forgotten just how big an event moving house is! I've been through my stuff and belongings, thrown out all the stuff and I'm now working on getting rid of quite a few belongings as well. There's just so many things I forgot I even had!
Weekend after next I'm putting my desk in the Trading Post because it's so big and will take up quite a bit of space if it goes into storage with the bookcases and beds. Mum and Dad want to caravan around for a while, so EVERYTHING not being sold is going into storage..that's quite a lot of stuff.
My younger sister owns about three times as much as I did, now I'm just wondering how she will go with sorting through her things..

Yes it is! The house is sold!!! Okay, so that's slightly old news -about 5 days old- but it's so awesome! We put the house on the market one day and it's sold the next, it's so (awesome/fascinating/incredible/marvelous/prodigious/shocking/stunning/surprising/unbelievable/wonderful) <- pick one and call it that.

Sooooo, I'm sorry to say, anything I was working on to upload may be put off indefinitely. *it's nice to have a real excuse for once ;P*

IN OTHER NEWS
----------------------

I went and visited a friend in Ballina(NSW) yesterday :D She lives right around the corner from some of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen, and they have totally awesome surf XD
Unfortunately for me, by the time it was late enough to go swimming and not get burnt to the point of looking-like-a-tomato the surf had died down. So for a thrill we went rock diving instead :P It was so much fun! But I ended up with an earache *must take earplugs next time*


Has anyone seen Final Destination?? It's meant to be really good- I was going to see it today with some friends, but then found out it was horror and ..decided not to.

I know I haven't uploaded new work in a while, but I swear I have a good reason!
But first: the things I have been working on.
I've started a new story, it's intended to be a short story but may end up a bit longer than the typical short story (not that I know what the typical one is).
The Lady Of Ambrosia is on her way to a second chapter- I know it's been long in coming but I've been busy.. and forgot about it. Completely forgot it until I looked through Word Document on my computer in my room.
Now the reasons (yes. there a few) for this are, in no particular order:

- The house is going back on the market this weekend, and we've been cleaning and clearing, and renovating a little so we can hopefully sell it this time. *looking for a house near Brisbane anyone??*

- I have been very sidetracked with songs I'm working on. I'm not very good at distributing my concentration evenly, and with the new equipment I've got I must admit music has had more than its fair share of attention.

- And (something that ties in with the previous point) I'm writing a song to go with a very beautiful poem I found here on DA. I've pretty much got it sorted out, but I need to see about using a friend's studio to record it.

I feel odd looking at my gallery and seeing how much time gets left in between the things I upload..
Anyways, I think I'll have something to upload in the next couple of weeks...I hope.

:EDIT:
Lol I just realised I forgot to update the age displayed on my page from 17, to 18 :rofl:

Life

Hey everyone, how are you this lovely evening?
Well my past week has been filled with with keyboards, guitars, glandular fever, and cinnamon doughnuts. Oh and a hail storm :excited:
Now I'm just wishing for a regular storm- not probable looking at the weather lately.

Anyways, I was going to post this journal the night before Bronte died but I procrastinated had other things that had to be done.
Keyboards and Guitars - About a week ago now I was finally able to go out and buy the keyboard I've been planning on for half a year ^^; I was having such a great time in the music shop and was going to buy a couple of music magnets but ran out of money when I spotted a gorgeous guitar ;P The keyboard is a cinch to play but the guitar I'm finding a bit of a challenge. Not to worry though, I LOVE a challenge when it involves music. So far I've figured out a Kelly Clarkson song and part of a Brooke Fraser (though not much). I was going to get a cello next, but after playing with a friends' violin and seeing how easy it was I might just go for one of those next :D If I can't find a way to conquer language- I wanted to learn Aramaic and Hebrew but couldn't find decent curriculum- then I'm content with conquering instruments. Though one of these days I really should look at some theory.

Glandular Fever - A trip to the doctors recently has bought up the suggestion that I have glandular fever at the moment. I've been ridiculously tired and have had swollen and sore underarms, so today I had a blood test which will prove one way or the other if I actually have it. It's such a drag. Even though I'm used to not getting out much, now my social life has been even further restricted. Oh what fun *rolls eyes*.

Cinnamon Doughnuts - I've been craving cinnamon doughnuts all week! I had one a few days back and now I want more ;P I'm so fussy though, I only like fresh ones from Doughnut King. Supermarket doughnuts had a tendency to be soggy, and in result taste pretty bad. So tomorrow I think I'll make a trip down to The Plaza and get some ^^ Only I have to figure out a bus route to get there..

At some point during the last week mum and I went out to Carindale and stocked up on period dramas. We got Wives And Daughters, Sense And Sensibility, and Vanity Fair. All of which are several hours long. Wives And Daughters was rather interesting, and I loved Sense And Sensibility, but I'm not so sure about Vanity Fair. While I loved the costumes and manners I wasn't entirely keen on the story itself, though Vanity Fair has a way of hooking one in 'til the end.

R.I.P. Bronte

This morning at about 9:30 our dog Bronte was put down. She had a degrading disk in her neck and it got too much for her pain wise, so a little over half an hour ago she was put to rest at the vet.
