Being tagged and study breaks

Today, I have studied History and decided to hate on Nicholas II because there were three revolutions before all this shit got sorted and I can't remember what happened where! (Although, to be fair, hates on Stalin as well. Evil dictators FTL).

Anywho, I have been tagged by some lovely people (tara and jacinta... <3)>

4 things I did today:

1. Went into town and spent $30 on magazines - Frankie (with bonus gift wrap book! ker-ching!), jpg (a photo magazine) and some gaming one for Boy. I suspect it's actually manga porn. (I jest)

2. Studied. Ugh.

3. Bought my second CanTeen bandana this year. I can't resist the geeky robot designs!

4. Decided to post Kay's dress (my first design and business venture!)

4 things on my to-do list:

1. Find the sheet music for my WAAPA audition. Its next month but I'm terrible with actually doing stuff.

2. Save up for a four-track and make an EP!

3. Write some songs for said EP.

4. Study! Darn examinations.

4 guiltiest pleasures:

1. The icecream from work. Fererro tastes exactly like a Fererro Rocher and it is a mouth-gasm.

2. French Cannoli from work. We have two Italian pastry chefs, okay? I'm getting fat* working there! (* not fat, but no longer able to slip between the pastry desk and the doorway. This must be rectified)

3. Cheesy 80s music. Belinda Carslile and Meatloaf come to mind.

4. Sex. Not really, I'm just running out of things to say! Oh, actually, good cover versions. I used up much of our downloads watching The Arcade Fire and David Bowie perform "Wake Up", Stars covering The Smiths' "This Charming Man"... I may have dabbled in the odd Bowie cover myself (it's on youtube somewhere).

4 random facts about me:

1. I like using 1950s profanities more than modern ones. It's deeply satisfying to yell "Hot dang!" in an aggrivated tone.

2. I'm planning to save $7000 to go to England next year for Reading Festival (most of this will be spent on clothes while I'm there, for me and my darling sister). I have something like $5605.45 to go.

3. I've picked the name of my solo music project, and now just have to get around to recording the darn ep.

4. In one month I will be in Dunsborough caring for my drunk/hungover friends while playing Guitar Hero with the only other person I know who will be there and doesn't drink. I highly look forward to it.

Tag #2 from Jacinta

The rules:- Link to the person who tagged you. (http://justjacinta.blogspot.com/)

- Mention the rules. (am currently doing so)

- Tell six quirky yet boring, unspectacular details about yourself.

- Tag six other bloggers by linking to them.

- Go to each person's blog and leave a comment that lets them know they've been tagged.

1. I have a History examination in six days. I know not a lot about Russia or Australia, hopefully my brain starts to function again when I catch up on sleep tonight!

2. I have a six day old "nephew" - my friend just had a baby and since she won't let me be godmother (even though I was promised the role) because her new lesbian lover is (I know, if she stayed a lesbian this never would have happened!), so I decided it's my nephew and I am the cool aunty who it loves.

3. I'm drinking green tea. I love green tea almost as much as life itself - this actually goes for most cups of tea.

4. I painted a picture a couple of weeks ago of a girl (in black and white) but her face is in a TV screen and that is in colour. I then analysed it from a third-person perspective and decided it could be a commentary on society, or it could just be crap on canvas.

5. Im unsure whether to sell said painting (money for England!) or give it to my sister (original plan, it was meant to be a birthday present but I had too much to do so I got her the DVD of Popular instead)

6. I'm not sure whether to cut my hair or grow it. Decisions, decisions!
