NOTE:

I just looked at my blog as a website and the other day I put up a post with ‘a’ as the subject and no body. I have no recollection of doing this and don’t know why I would’ve done so. I’m assuming it was a mistake. Just thought I’d clear that up with you all.

Because life isn’t worth living…

…if your socks don’t have cupcakes on them!!!

 
Gotta love topshop. And I’ve never even been in to one of their stores. It’ll happen one day and from that day on I will be poor. NOTE: the red cherry’s are in SPARKLY THREAD. When my mum gave my these upon returning from overseas I nearly fainted at their perfection. Oh, and I ate a really awesome cupcake the other day, I’ll be getting another one and I shall take a pic for you, they’re pretty cute. But what cupcake isn’t.
Wow, a post entirely about cupcakes Gala* would be proud.
Just so you all** know I’ve been a bit sick all week which is turning out to be some virus that may or may not prevent posting, it’ll probably slow it down and don’t expect many if any what I wore today posts cause fashion is not a priority*** when I feel this crap. So, nice to meet you anyway, come again if you feel like it.
*iCing run by Gala at www.galadarling.com. She has a cupcake fetish also.
**I mean all in the loosest construct of the word. This is me pretending theres actually someone, let alone multiple people, reading this.
***I cannot believe those 5 words left my mouth in that order. Gasp.

My Daily[ish] ’shot of academic adrenalin’

Title cred to Justin Heazlewood, writer of the article ‘dear blog…’ in the current issue of frankie. magazine. I absolutely uncategorically LOVE this magazine. I’m TERRIBLE with superfluous spending in that even if I’m not buying clothes I still spend too much money on food, COFFEE, alcohol, petrol etc. One of these expenditures was magazines and with a cut down on all of these categories I haven’t bought one in AGES. It was a trial. But I managed. Just. Until yesterday. With an undoubtedly long wait in a waiting room ahead of me I bit the bullet. I looked at Russh and the free napoleon nail polish coming with madison but my trusty frankie was calling my name. It was SO worth it. I LOVE Marieke Hardy who also writes in the Green Guide [Entertainment supplement of The Age, national newspaper] AND co hosts the morning show on triple j which is coincidentally my favourite radio station.

BUT back to Justin Heazlewood’s article, the whole thing is so damned quoteable I dont even know what to share with you my little cupcakes! I think I’ll tantilise your taste buds with the little bold intro;
“Dear Blog, Today I did this and said that and made this private joke and generally my grammar was terrible and I got myself into a situation with no dramatic tension or character arcs and I guess you had to be there *SUBMIT*”
Gold. Pure Gold.
