I am about to commence the best weekend ever...

Roll on 5 o'clock as I have some serious fun planned. Saying that I am excited is probably an understatement. This weekend is so full I hope I can take it all in, I start the weekend with dinner at Bondi while trying to catch some skaters warming up for tomorrow. Tomorrow I begin the day with an 8am meeting at Coogee followed by a beach session with the ladies for afl. Then straight to Bondi to watch the bowl-a-rama, I saw it a couple of years ago and I was lucky enough to meet one of my Idols Lance Mountain, and mum got to meet one of hers in Dave Duncan. This year we have Steve Caballero, Pat Ngoho and Bucky Lasek skating. This I can't even find the words to express my happiness haha, Ngoho and Caballero if you haven't heard of them you need to. They are some serious legends in the skateboarding world. And Bucky Lasek, oh em gee, he is as good as Tony Hawk and has been around for about as long, an absolute legend, so many awards to his name to remember, and just simply awesome, I think I may cry if I see him, haha okay probably not but I may as well.

And then after that amazing day I am off to the NAB cup to cheer on the mighty swans on their debut for the season. Wait wait there is more, Sunday sees the Swans Fan Day, a day where swans interact with new and old members, kids go along and have a go at the Big Kick or test out their handpassing skills, they have this great thing where they hold a press conference and kids get to ask the tough questions, its always a great day and a perfect end to my weekend. If that doesn't finish my weekend maybe another episode of Gossip Girl just to put the cherry on top.

I am so excited, this is definitely going to be the best weekend of this year. 
I hope everyone else has a good one!

I didn't mean to do it...

I can't take it back...
I feel awful...
How could I do this...
Once started it will never go away...
Why am I enjoying this...
I have to accept it now...
I discovered...Gossip Girl. 

Haha, the above is how I think I should be feeling but I can't, I have never had foxtel so I missed it and while all my friends were talking about it I sat and twiddled my thumbs. Then my legen wait for it dairy roomie informed me she had the box set and about an hour later I knew my social life was officially over. It really is the ideal show for a 17-21 year old girl. There is plenty of eye candy and of course all the fashion, and for those that have finished high school its a show to reflect on all the silly things you used to do. I started Monday night and while working everyday last night I completed the first season. Yea I know its bad, quite frequently I am giving my roomies the gift of the random squeal when someone hooks up with someone new. I love it already, I can't wait to watch the rest.

Movie Review: Remember Me

Okay so let me start this off by saying that I actually hate(d) Robert Pattinson, I do not understand the appeal about him, or the whole Twilight BS! Having said that when this movie came out I thought it may be a chance to give him a go as an actor, and last night I finally got around to watching it, the movie begins with a shock and doesn't leave you bored the entire way through. It is a tear jerker, I cried like a baby but that has to mean it was a good movie right? It is a good drama, and nice to see Robert Pattinson not being a gay vampire. I don't want to give away anything but the ending really gets to ya, I can't imagine anybody who wouldn't be affected by this film. All I can say is that Remember Me has a bit of everything, love, sadness, death and it is well worth the watch. Oh and I still don't get the hotness factor, at least he proved he can act.

I Love Fridays

It's the only day of the week where work flies, the only day you can get away with using your rolled up phone charger as a mouse instead of the computer mouse (yes thats you Kate) and you know it's always going to be a good day because it's the weekend in a few hours!

Tip: If you need to perk up your afternoon may I suggest watching the following things....

Dear Katy Perry,

I have a small problem, you see sometimes I feel like a plastic bag, I hear you are good at dealing with these sorts of problems. Could you help fix mine? 
Sincerley, Broken Firework. X

I miss the X Factor :(



Sometimes

Things happen in life and you get stressed out over the small things, or even big things where stress and pain is warranted, an elderly lady told me a quote the other day and I think if used to get over the little things our lives will be a little bit easier and carefree. Thank you Ginger Megs. 

Just let it ride, dear.

So we made a rap song...

Kate & I had something come over us while we were at work yesterday and it compelled us to make a rap song! Please enjoy 'Smatar' (to the tune of In The Club by Fiddy Cent)......

Go go go go go go go go
Go Smatar it's your birthday,
We're gonna party like it's your birthday,
We will go up from the lobby,
to level 4 and have a party!
You'll find me in the lift,
all covered in blue!
I've got pillows in my inseam,
to make you all comfy!
My parents have a story,
1's an Avatar, the others a smurf,
One day they got in a lift,
and got a little funky!
I'm electric, in a box,
Play with my cords, cause I rox!
If too many people get in in me,
I get a little heavy,
but thats okay press stop,
wait for the beep and we'll have another party!
Go go go go go go go go go go go 

:)
