Stupid Question To Ask In A Bookshop #Don’t Ask.
“What religion is this Holy Bible?”
later followed up by; “Well I wouldn’t know, I’m Buddhist.”

lounging in champagne…
I went to this bar that could’ve been way cooler than it was, the dj needed serious work! There also weren’t very many people there, but the formula was cool. Called Champagne Lounge [little collins, near the corner with exhibition st if your in melbourne].
The best bit, was this wall with all these quotes on it, about champagne. Crappy quality is because I took these on my phone, didn’t have my proper camera with me, dammit!
Another one I took didn’t come out AT ALL
“In victory, you deserve Champagne, in defeat, you need it. - Napoleon
And the other one won’t upload, will try again later… edit: it worked. obviously.
and its Winston Churchill if you can’t read that…
Wish it had been better, maybe another time.

Things That Don’t Need Spellcheck
1. Email address fields.
I mean duh. If its not just your name, which will be ‘misspelt’ anyway, its probably going to include;
a) bad grammar
b) numbers, sometimes in the place of letters
c) unnecessary punctuation and/or underscores
d) all of the above
2. MSN
SERIOUSLY? PC users can [maybe] tune out, cause I’m a mac user and, yes, mac messenger has the squiggly lines. Now, this perhaps is a good thing, because it has slightly reduced the degree to which I butcher the english language on msn, though my use of capital letters is obviously still abysmal. HOWEVER, the fact that even MSN is a misspelling on that thing, reminds me that its being taken a touch too far.

In Totally Unrelated News I received a pair of shoes bought from Topshop online today and I am in love. I’m wearing them right now. May I inform you that I’m also wearing tracksuit pants and a top I regularly wear to bed. *sigh*. I will take a photo of my outfit tomorrow if it kills me, just to show you these shoes. Actually, I think I have posted a pic here from the website, can’t really be bothered checking, woven white leather lace-ups. DEVINE.
And now, because my actual life has been a whirl of working, uni and sleep [still not really healthy bah], I have no other news. The Olympics has also taken up a lot of time recently, checking all my favourite blogs they all have new [to me] posts, tis fun. So, nice to meet you anyway, bye!

The Girls In Front Of Me On The Escalator Today Were Eating Cookie Dough
Also known as; A Post Full Of Things You Don’t Want Or Need To Know But I’m Going To Post Anyway.
- I have now been sick for over a month
- I have an alarmingly small amount of interest in an alarming large portion of what I’m currently studying but I have no idea what to do instead.
- I just read a book called “The not quite perfect boyfriend” and it made me SO glad I went to an all girls school. Which is a novelty let me tell you.
- I should probably shower, like, soon.
- I don’t have any real friends at uni and have recently been struck by a serious sense of deja vue thus and am quite unhappy about it.
- I haven’t been in a genuinely good mood for… weeks.
- I fell in love with a pair of shoes today which I don’t need [more heels] and can’t afford but will probably buy anyway.
- The last boy I kissed had a girlfriend. And that was… also weeks ago.
- I’m listening to a song called I Don’t Wanna Go To Bed Now but I’m actually quite tired.
- My wallet got stolen/lost [I think stolen] last thursday. Drainer much.
- Writing this is so not making me feel better.
- Gah.
Good night, sorry if that was totally depressing.
