Not that I know anything about politics or politically correct ways of broadcasting the news, but I just heard on Channel 7 that so-and-so (someone from Hey! Hey!...?) got cleared of "gay sex charges".
Wut? Um, I think they meant to say "sexual assault charges" or "rape charges" or you know, something BAD.

Fail, Channel 7, fail!

PEEK:


THE REST @ Dreamwidth

please: no hotlinking, no editing, comment & credit - enjoy ♥

A summary of the last few days:

- Work was very, very busy last week. Especially yesterday. Just a whole lot of moving things around for the catalogue and I was a bit behind in other work Thanh gave me. And it made me feel kind of inadequate... but yeah, I stayed behind a bit and finished it off. I'm starting at 7.30am on Monday because we need to get perfumes set up in store before the start of the day. I really, really hope it goes smoothly!

- My Belgian cousins are here! It's been super! My uncle and his wife are awesome and so are the (15 and 9 year old) kids :) Have had a lot of fun hanging with them these last couple of days - I hope they're having fun too. Adeline's definitely having a good laugh at our horrid attempts at French LOL and Julian's just ADORABLE.

- My other little cousins (13 year olds) and I were watching Harry Potter on TV tonight. And also discussing/googling guys we think are hot. It was a bit weird... LOL They're like so grown up. And I feel out of the loop sometimes and y'know, behind *sigh*

The last episode of Kings was so much win!

Prince Jack's storyline was just wow. It took such a turn! I didn't think I could love him more after last week's episode but this one? Sebastian Stan does such a good tormented!face.

I practically lolled IRL with what happened to Michelle and David. They could not be more loserly LOL

Ooh, Psych is back August 7th! :D

Lots of "exciting" stuff happened at work today, so much so, that I almost forgot it was True Blood night (on the download now, not to worry)!

Firstly, saw Lisa, a lady who used to work with mum and I. I think she forgot who I am lol. Oh well. Had a bit of a chat with her.

My boss has been doing these staff reviews for the last few weeks and it was my turn today I guess. Pretty exciting actually! He asked me how I was going, what I liked or didn't like about the job etc. and just generally how I've settled in during my first 2 months. I still can't believe how grown up my cousin is! hehe anyway, he's changing around staff roles and offered me a different one if I were to stay on as a permanent member (over a year at least, he said) and yeah, the new role sounds really good to me! It's more of a data/processing type of thing. I felt like hugging him. He told me to have a good think about it (because the new role would involve me going to training which he doesn't want to spend money on if I'm deciding not to stay very long) and he'll ask me again in another month.

I think I'm happy staying. I told him I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life so I was happy staying. I nearly teared up because, shit I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE. Oh well, work to live not the other way around and all that jazz.

The only part I hate about this job is that it's in the sticks :( Mum's considering mentioning to him next time she sees him that he should buy a pharmacy in the city haha and I'd work for him for ever and ever; I'D EVEN TAKE A PAY CUT.

Lastly, I ran into my former French teacher FOR THE BILLIONTH TIME. But this time, I couldn't run and hide hahaha he totally saw me coming (my French teacher's wife works in the dispensary). We talked. For like 20 MINUTES. It was actually really good, awkward, but good. And he totally called me out! "You know, this is the most I've ever spoken to you! You always said nothing in class!" I told him 3+yrs plus going on exchange changed things I guess. Haha, we chatted about Liverpool and what I wanted to do for work (I lied with my pre-prepared answers...) and other random stuff. He doesn't seem so threatening to me anymore ;)

ANYWAYS

The Hangover last night was great. I liked how the plot flowed and some of the quotes! lmao! I actually don't mind Bradley Cooper rocking the long hair now. I first saw him on Kitchen Confidential (didn't watch Alias) which my Ioannis downloaded for us when we were in Liverpool. I remember telling him "I love it! The guy's hot!" and he's like "Yeah, I thought you'd say that". Aw, I miss him! He even downloaded "Eating Out" for me HAHA I asked "Um... did you watch it?" "I... skipped through it. To check. It's fine - here." LOL

Hung premiered last night on HBO.

Hung is a comedy show from HBO, created by Dmitry Lipkin & Colette Burson. It stars Thomas Jane as Ray Drecker, a well-endowed struggling high school basketball coach who uses his large penis to his advantage, resorting to prostitution.

REALLY? REALLY? I've gotta see this.

I won Melody Gardot's CD, My One And Only Thrill, off ausPop. Yay!

Having a very meh day.

My Dreamwidth is up and running. Though there's nothing new there. Just moved all my icons and stuff over.

The Last International Playboy (Trailer) - O HAI JASON BEHR, WHERE'VE YOU BEEN???

Seeing The Hangover or Year One tonight with my all growed up cousin. Yay.

- So, Evan Rachel Wood is playing Vampire Queen Sophie-Ann Leclerq in True Blood? I thought she was, like, 12 in the books? Oh well, she's pretty hot though. And the Queen's a lesbian! At least it makes Sookie/Sophie less... pedophilic lol

- He's so hot beaten up... or wet

- Must own The Dreamers. Loved it when I saw it a while ago, but am listening to the soundtrack now and it's so very charming and all sorts of eclectic!

Tonight, I'm writing a list of Things To Do for the near future. Stuff I need/want to get done this weekend etc. including work, because... I really need the money :( Then I shall icon some more :)

- Last weekend was awesome
1. Avenue Q. Emma and I went to see the matinee on Saturday. So, very impressive! The puppetry was really cool (half bodied Muppets) and the actors really helped the characters become so much more expressive! The songs were so funny, the whole thing was hilarious! I would go see it again because I loved it... but would rather spend $60 on something I haven't done this year!

2. Went to aussiebuffy's for a few movies :) We watched Jeux d'Enfants, The Hole and Interstate 60. Hehe I loved watching all three again! Hadn't seen any of them for years!

3. Paintball! Had my very first Pain(t)ball experience on Sunday. Oh man, IT CANES. But it's so much fun! We had to get all suited up in, like, janitor coveralls and biking masks. I came out pretty unscathed compared to others! I have two huge bruises on my left thigh, two smaller ones on my arm and one little one on my side. A friend got hit on her BARE wrist and finger and it was seeping blood! Others had various welts appearing lol
I really want to go again! The adrenalin rush is amazing in the "battle field" hehe

- Work's been okay. Been pretty busy with stocktake and the extra work I've been too lazy to do at home.

- --begin vagueness for I can't be bother to flock this-- Met up with this guy last week that I hadn't seen in a few months. I had/have a crush on him lol. Last time I spoke to him (coincidentally, this was also the first time I spoke to him), he probably had the impression I was a real weirdo. But seeing him again was pretty okay! He didn't embarrass me by calling out my weirdness! :D But... argh... he was doing cutesy things and I'm thinking "sttoooop iiiiit" because not only is he, y'know, normal (out of my league) but also taken haha. And he lives, like, really close.

- aussiebuffy and I are seeing The Script in September! YAY! It's also the day before my cousin/boss's wedding hhahahhaa

- True Blood 2x02. Still outdoing itself! Amazing. ( Spoiler? )

- Dexter. Still waiting on more promo from Showtime but there's a kinkmeme! BUT. I don't ship him with anyone on the show :( (CROSSOVERS!!!! OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT. *goes to make a request*)

- Kings. I think... I've finally formed an opinion of this show. 8 episodes in (and 5 episodes out lol). I wouldn't be watching if it weren't for Prince Jack and King Silas. I must admit the dialogue is really poetic too. You know what? The most of the show and characters rock. Too bad David and Michelle don't. They're like, the blandest couple on TV and are so unbelievably uninteresting. They'd be the most boring couple IN REAL LIFE.

- A Teen Wolf remake? LMAO Perez thinks RPattz should be the new Teen Wolf. I CAN SO SEE THAT. I've got a big picture of Scott Howard in my room hahhaha I got it for my NINTH birthday from my friend who knew I was infatuated with MJF :)

Okay, I think that's all I needed to update on this week lol
I'm nearly finished reading a book that I'm going to squeal over in the next few days, but until then :)

So, the best news on ohnotheydidnt today? (Besides the obligatory ZQMF Walking posts...)





Louis Garrel, Gaspard Ulliel and Grégoire Leprince(LE PRINCE)-Ringuet

IN ONE MOVIE.

It's a rumour though, I think... BUT STILL.

Oh, and the movie is called La Princesse De Montpensier.

*le sigh*

- Work last week was such a pain. We had two bulk deliveries that had come early :( Hopefully that means that this week will be pretty smooth. Managed to catch a cold on Friday because of being outside in the chill getting the deliveries to The Cage. And so I couldn't go out Saturday night :(
We have another minion at work for the next two weeks! I was working alone in the stockroom today (as I do every Monday now) and it was so hard looking for work for her to do! She probably hated it lol *shrugs*

- On Saturday though, we went to the Doctor's to get the results from my blood test! And wahey, I am iron deficient! Haha I'm such an idiot though! I've always though chicken was counted as red meat. It doesn't. HAHA so yeah, mum's blaming my dad for my iron deficiency because he's scared of the cholesterol implications or whatever in beef and lamb. So my doctor goes I can eat beef/lamb or she can give me pills, and I'm, like, I AM TOTALLY STUFFING MYSELF WITH MEAT, K?
Also means, I can't donate blood until next year probably though :(
And now I also know why I keep losing so much hair!

- Mum and I went to IKEA! I ♥ Ikea! I bought a new shelf! For my DVDs :) I've started to reorganise my study now that I'm resigned to living at home for years more :( I also got A-Z index cards for my movies. It looks super!
Had a few more shelving boards cut at Bunnings on Sunday so I've got more space for smaller/larger things. Now I've got the new shelf (this one but in white) for my DVDs, my tall one for my books (I'm proud I've made them all fit! It took some strategic balancing for the display at the top) and my regular one for CDs and general storage. I might put up photos soon!

- Kings returned last night! I generally like this show. The re-invention of the Bible's David... story is a terrific concept. But I think everything was just badly handled. It's turned into Jericho Part Deux. I reckon Showtime or HBO would've made it so much more awesome. I think the show's more redeeming qualities are Prince Jack, King Silas, the soundtrack and the dialogue.

- Just watched True Blood S02E01! With my mum as usual :) So much cool! Best parts?
( Spoilers, I guess )

ETA. True Blood is being released on DVD in Australia in July! haha maybe I just should've waited rather than ordered from the US... oh well! But HAHA it's rated R18+ AWESOME!

- I've been listening to Dave Matthews Band's "Crash Into Me" so much lately! I've had the song for ages but I've only just realised I really love it haha I've been trying to play it on Lucy (my guitar). I really do wish my fingers could stretch to four frets more comfortably :( but I manage JUST. But still - my rhythm? I HAVE NONE. I've got, like, no ear for rhythm or melody it seems. I can hit all the right notes, just not in the right timing lol I SUCK.

- The week shall be okay I think, hopefully. We've got two catalogues to set up though, so...
But I so better not be sick this weekend too! It's going to be busy! I've got a friend's 22nd on Friday, Avenue Q (OMG YAY) on Saturday arvo and then Paintball on Sunday!

- Things I've learnt this week:
I've got two more pet peeves!
1. I hate people with superiority complexes. Just people who take pride in themselves whenever they see someone else fail at whatever.
2. No one likes an attention seeker! Or people digging around for a compliment or people who feel so affection deprived that they need someone to placate them. Oh mean, they need to toughen up. I tend to just ignore them, not the person, but I just don't give them the satisfaction of attention lol I'M SO MEAN.
