Sunday, July 25, 2004 i've another word to add to the list of funny words that noelley girlie and i compiled : PROLAPSE.
apparently it's when all your guts fall out your arse. or something. but whatever. it's really funny. prolapse.
noelley i submit this for your approval !! let me know ay ?
i shall put the whole list up here one day. soon perhaps. mm we have a list of dirty/horrid words and nice ones. hopefully this new one will join the ranks of hootenanny (in 1st place), crabs and rickets.
it is confirmed !! ben is arriving on 27th august !! or 28th. whatever it is, he's coming to perth !!!!!! super excited. many pictures will follow. i realize i haven't put up pics of my sg trip. so .. i guess i'll do that in awhile. we really were such stupid loser girlies *sigh* if only we could do that forever =P i mean. be stupid loser girlies. no need to work, endless supply of dosh and shisha. nice.
Monday, July 19, 2004 i have a new hobby !! reading fineprint =P i'm currently obsessed with reading all the fineprint on ads, brochures, letters etc. it's really fun. it's like reading footnotes. those are fun too. but only when the footnotes are bits of the story that can't quite be included in the main text. not the shitty footnotes that are all about references to other books.
mmm...things are going ok. sortof.
it's fun dreaming up plans. so the current happy plan is to work in japan for awhile as a somethingorother, then save enough to buy a couple of shacks by the beach, do them up. live in one, and organize festival parties for small or large groups in the other one =) mmm .. happy joy idea !! i hope it hasn't already been taken. and none of u mofos out there dare steal this idea, i will kill you with my bare hands. ja ?? JA ?!?!
