Vancouver in a Nutshell

Nine Days

Today is my second last day of work, I'm feeling kind of strange these past few weeks, kind of like I am floating above my body watching this movie about a girl who's planning on leaving behind everything she knows and venture on this amazing adventure by moving to the other side of the world, and whilst I'm watching this movie I'm secretly jealous that I'm not that girl thats leaving. Except this time I am the girl that is leaving, in 9 days to be exact.

Anxious, Excited, Scared are all words that spring to mind when I think about how I'm feeling about leaving Australia for the first time (except for Bali for 10 days, but that's hardly the same thing)- but I think mainly I'm just happy. Happy that I'm getting out, happy that I'm finally embarking on something that I've always wanted to do. Amongst all the changing goals of wanting to be a Lawyer, then a journalist, then a doctor, then a teacher- travelling has always been there and now I am doing it! Now I'm about to break out and see this big wide world. Well in 9 days anyway (-:

Today's Wish

Today I wish this was me...


And I was here...


Whilst drinking these...


With this adorable fellow...

Your face makes mine smile

Jumping Jackals!

Little Creatures

A few weeks ago Bryan and me went to Little Creatures Brewery in Fremantle- I like little creatures, it apparently used to be a crocodile farm years ago and now it brews some of the finest beers there is in Perth (Bright Ale being my favourite) and has some of the tastiest vegetarian nachos around. Plus a man who looks like he may be a real pirate works there- and any place that has pirates working for them is a bonus in my books!

Dress me up

Last Saturday night my mumsy celebrated her 48th birthday by having a dress up party, which did have a theme- but nobody really seemed to stick to it. I was supposed to be a modern day Marie Antoinette, but kind of failed and people kept asking if I was trying to be Marilyn Monroe. Me, Em, Sinead and Lana left for the city at about 11 to go to the Moon, Amps and Republic Bar- by 3 it had become apparent that I had drank a little to much as my head was throbbing, so it was off home to bed- where I later had nightmares that a gang was trying to kidnap me. Scary stuff.

Not so Marie Antoinette




Sinead had a wonderful mask

Jess was a Clockwork Orange

Lana was a kitty cat, em was a flapper
