coz it's been a while....

heyhey


so before you start press play on this clip and listen to this song while you read my ramblings.... 

it quite adequately depicts my current mood... the deep sense of anticipation and nerves prior to my whole life changing forever (finishing work, leaving for Canada alone, returning to start a new job) , the clock ticking away (only 2 days till I abandon my family for a month and a half to go visit my crazy boyfriend on the other side of the world....) and yet the sweet swelling tones of hope and joy that these changes are bringing to my life...and then the abrupt end showing the finality of the unknown future. 


and so let us continue as to the real reason of this post.... yep I'm sorry... it's been a little long since I've bashed out my thoughts and concerns on here... but I'll kindly thank you to take it a sign of my dedication and commitment to my studies... obviously.


So now... studies are over... well one exam left on Thursday morning.... that I've spent a grand total of 3hrs studying for yesterday. Umm... I'm sure it'll be ok... besides there is so much more important things to think about.... 


like cheesecake for my last day at FairHaven tomorrow!!! 





(Which this one... though found on google... looks exactly like the one I've just made... promise you!! just trying to make you jealous.... Kara I tell you you're missing out on something.....)




and Mum & Dad who are sick and hence the reason why I just made a macaroni bake..... 


(which mine looks heaps better than this one cause it has WAY more veggies, + of course it has spiral macaroni which is an absolute necessity for a good macaroni....actually soft shells are alright too)











and of course Canada.... and my dearly beloved who lives there with his family..... and to think about what to pack!!! sadly I've finally come to the conclusion that it is fairly impossible for me to take my entire winter & summer wardrobes as necessary as I feel it is.... so here is the current situation as it stands.... notice the Australian supplies... I am not going unarmed into an unknown situation... though I'm fairly sure the customs people may percieve that I own to a belief that food isn't available in Canada...which of course is untrue.... just that food of necessity is rare in nature... actually none of it's for me... it's all requests from people who have been living in deprivation... but back to the point being that i'm fairly unsure of the weather there... i mean look at the side-by-side comparison....








yup... what to take.... need for a jacket?? (I mean come on max 13 degrees on Friday the day I arrive there...).... mmmmhhmmm... just as well there's still 2 days to think about this :)


and that's about all for the moment I think. Take care peoples and I shall endeavour to keep you updated on my adventures in Canada...

Utter pointless update on my life

Ok so peer pressure has pretty much pushed me into writing this post.... seriously.... both of the serious bloggers in my life have posted today... one has even posted twice... and since at this moment I'm sandwiched between them on the couch, all behind our mighty Macbook pro's.... there is really no other option but to follow suit and share my thoughts with the world which is no doubt waiting with bated breath to hear what amazing words of wisdom are about to flow forth from my fingers after months of silence.....

and unfortunately I have to say that there is no great pearls of wisdom to flow forth... only approximately 7/16 of my brain is currently available for random access memory, meaning brain power is significantly reduced and pearls of wisdom are few and far between at this stage of the game...

but of course, I could always just bore you all with the reasons why 9/16 of my brain is unavailable for usage at this stage.....

#1 - the love of my life has departed for Canada........ which is pretty devastating I can tell you... well I cried a bit on Monday and Tuesday but thought I was doing pretty well today... until I managed to leave my wallet at home when I went out shopping (and didn't realise until I was sitting in the carpark...), I went to go shopping for eggs and returned with everything BUT eggs, I forgot to put the bins out for rubbish collection, I nearly forgot to feed the cat, and I managed to feel crazy busy and yet do absolutely nothing all day despite having goals set out that I was going to accomplish... which is mainly due to the fact that my poor brain is doing useless pointless looping.... which for the uninformed is a word I made up to describe a repetitious train of thought... which is taking up a good 7/16 of my brain..... hopefully I can reclaim some of that brainspace soon... or I'm gonna go CRAZY!!!

#2 - exhausting 12hr prac shifts where nothing EVER happens (touch wood)... well maybe Ctrl+Z that "touch wood" comment... it would actually be nice if something would actually happen..... but anyway those which have successfully killed the remaining 2/16 of my brain that is not being utilised....

and now I have to fly cause I've got a hot skype date happening very soon... :) and hopefully it clears up some of the problems caused by #1.... so hopefully the next time I blog I might actually have something worth sharing to write about....

good night all my avid readers.... lekke slaapen....
