</div><div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I have discovered the name of my newest game - it is called the “Amy might have been drunk but let’s not talk about it” game. Amongst that there is also the “Act sober in front of the family game” and the “pretend not to be hungover game”. Needless to say, tonight was the first night I have ever been drunk in my life, despite being quite close countless times. I made out with, erm, a couple of people, but here’s some advice ladies, just because you <i>want </i>to forget whatshisface, doesn’t mean you should hook up with someone else to try. </span><br />

</div><div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 14px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span><br />

I usually make some, but never really end up keeping them, because of all the pressure associated with them. This year, I’ve decided instead to write a list of things I want to achieve in 2010, rather than things I have to change.</span><br />

As someone once said, ‘do something each day that scares you’. In order to live a more free life, I vote that we all ‘seize the day’, and do something that scares us. If we try and achieve this, I think we can one day succeed at living ‘free’ of ED, or at least have the strength to challenge it whenever it returns.</span><br />

It doesn’t have to be as long as mine, or it can be longer, whatever you want. As long as it’s things that YOU want to achieve, without ED’s interference. I’m calling this my ‘Decade of freedom’ challenge. Cheesy, I know, but when things have a title they sound more realistic ;)</span><br />

But in about two hours I'm driving up to Lorne with my family.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">To tell you the truth, my week with my friend and her family was, well, interesting. They eat so much, and I'm not just saying this. I felt really rude, because they were trying to be so accomodating vegan-wise, but they ate so differently to me. And by the end of my holiday in Eden, I really wanted to get away from my friend. I find it amazing how you find out people's little annoying habits when you stay with them for a period of time, and hers started to get on my nerves.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">But anyway, enough of that. I think I'll be taking my laptop with me to Lorne, but it all depends on whether I can get reception.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'll tell you what I'm looking forward to in Lorne??<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Fritz Gelato's bounty flavour gelato. Totally vegan, and totally delicious.<br />

<br />
I write this quick blog to let you all know that I won't be posting for about a week - I'm going away with my friend and her family on a holiday to the beach.<br />
<br />
:) I'll post when I get back. I'm a bit nervous to tell you the truth, but hopefully it should be fun.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope you all have a wonderful day, and get lots of presents from <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Santa </b></span>;)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">As I type this it is 11.42pm on December the <b>24th,</b> and I have just spent the evening home alone cooking (yes cooking!!), wrapping presents and listening to christmas carols. Oh, and being a camera 'ho, as you can see above (yes, the <b>candy canes</b> are in the shape of a heart).<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This picture represents what I think Christmas is about. Contrary to popular belief, Christmas is <i>not about food</i>, or social eating. I don't even think it's too much about religion. It's about family, friends, and expressing the <b>love</b> you feel for them 365 days of the year. It's about being yourself, being <b>free</b>, even if something (or someone) tells you that you shouldn't.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I love you all, and I truly don't think I'd be as free or as happy as I am today without you. This sounds like a goodbye message, but don't fret, I'm not leaving you!! On the contrary, I am also using Christmas as an opportunity to celebrate my return to this lovely world, with lovely people :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><3 LOVE YOU.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">P.s You know you're cool when you have excess sugar cookie batter stuck to the bottom of your feet.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">;)<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I apologize again, I never meant to disappear from the blogosphere, because I adore you all. Things happened beyond my control, then I was busy, then I was out of the country, then I was devastated.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">As I said in my previous entry many moons ago, my great uncle died, so I (along with the rest of my family) basically lost two weeks trying to deal with it/get back to "normal" again. After that, I started my part time job at my mum's work, where I'm an executive assistant (sounds fancy, isn't). At the same time I had yabc concerts, then mum and I went to Bali (a trip which was a present for my 18th birthday). I arrived in Darwin at 3.00am on the way home to a text message telling me my ENTER score, the mark I received for year twelve. All I will say is that it wasn't what I had hoped for, and not high enough for even my back up universities. Needless to say, I was upset. If you classify screaming and sobbing for hours on end upset. Which I do.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyway, I post this to tell you all that as of today I will be returning to blogging, I pinky swear.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I leave you with a photo of me at the entrance to Kuta Beach in Bali.<br />

<br />
My great uncle died on Thursday, and mum and I have been moving into our new apartment.<br />
<br />
I promise to post properly once my life is a bit more organized :)<br />

<br />
a) I'm finished high school, <i>forever</i>.<br />
<br />
b) <b style="color: #cc0000;">I ATE CHINESE FOOD</b>.<br />
<br />
If you're asking yourself did you read that right, you sure did ;) Tonight, mum and I randomly decided to stop at a place near our house called 'Oodles of Noodles' (cute name) and get some food. We got the <i>vegetarian noodles</i> to share and <b>OMG</b>. I can't believe I ever stopped eating this. We got to watch them make it, they barely put any oil in, and they stir fried it all <b>healthy like</b>. Which made me happy, because even if I need to challenge ED, I have always been a firm believer in trying to be healthy. They were so good, we shared a takeaway box and there was so much in it, that when mum put her heap in the bowl it looked like there was <b>way </b>more than half left.<br />
<br />
Anyways, I was proud of myself. For both pieces of news stated above. I'm <b>free</b>!! From school at least, and <b>one step closer</b> to being free from ED.AMYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07141183509250996182noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432984914806216664.post-18333914245507095592009-11-17T18:18:00.000+11:002009-11-17T18:18:19.468+11:00Today was spent studying in the city, I decided not to go the library because it's air conditioned and obviously I still get cold pretty easily. Last time I studied there I was pretty distracted the whole time because I was so cold. Instead I went to the shopping centre, and sat where they have little tables with powerpoints set up. Only problem was it smelt a bit like fast food and fried chicken (to say a bit is an understatement), but at least I wasn't freezing my fingers off!!<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Breakfast was cereal, but my study fuel was a little different:<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11117.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11117.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="color: #ffd966;">Apricot-coconut fruit bar</i>, and <i style="color: #cc0000;">Cherry Pie Larabar</i>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I really liked the Larabar, I haven't tasted this flavour before but it was yummy, and held me over well during my studying.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Next comes the iffy part. Skip over if you are likely to be triggered, etc. Although I don't really say anything too triggering (I hope). I went to my mum's work this afternoon to get a cup of tea with her. We ended up having some roast vegetables and bread at a local cafe - let me tell you, these vegetables had <b>so </b>much oil on them it was unbelievable. Even mum agreed. I soaked off some of it with a napkin. Afterwards, I started freaking out, and crying, about how I will gain so much because it was like two tbsp of oil which equals XXX calories which is more than the meal should have been, and generally stressing out. On my way home I still stressed out, and seriously contemplated not having dinner. I went back and forth on that issue so many times, but eventually made myself a pita bread pizza. I lay on the couch and cried afterward. I just felt (and still feel) so fat, and horrible. I keep trying to tell myself 'you won't gain weight in one day' but it's not working, I can't calm myself down.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Sorry to be such a downer. I'm just sick of this life, if you can even call it that. I want to go outside and walk, but I'm so lazy that I can't even be bothered, all I want to do is cry.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Wednesday, 5.15pm is the date and time of said freedom :D I can't wait, but I'm still really nervous about the <b>International Studies</b> exam. We have to answer short answer questions, do 3 extended responses and 1 essay. The Media exam was <b>easier</b> than I expected, it actually wasn't that different from last years, which was good, because I used that to study for the exam. Oh, Philosophy was alright, a bit draining.<br />
<br />
What does a <b>soon-to-be graduated girl</b> eat for breakfast before a <b>big day</b> full of exams?? Some <i style="color: #990000;">cinnspice layered oats</i>, of course ;)<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">:(<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I had <i>waffles</i> for lunch.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11111.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11111.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And some of this.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11112.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11112.jpg" width="150" /></a><br />
Note to self: possibly drink less <i>diet coke/coke zero</i>??<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's weird, ED loves and hates this stuff. Loves it because it fills me up, and the calories, hates it because he thinks it will make me fat because of the chemicals and such. Blah.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I had yabc this morning again, seriously tiring. All I really want to do right now is<b> sleep</b>, but I have to <b>study</b>. It wasn't just physically tiring, but emotionally as well. One of the girls there has really been annoying me lately, for various reasons, and today one of the other girls, who is also a friend of mine, said to me during break <b>"are you actually going to eat??"</b> Not everyone was eating, and I prefer to wait for my lunch which was in 30 mins. But her comment upset me. That and she also said "Gain some weight, I don't like being able to feel people's bones." Err, okay, sure. :S It made me feel <b>self conscious</b> for the rest of the class.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyway, study time now lovies.<br />

Next time I'll probably (hopefully) be on my baby, and I won't look like a ghost/goth!!<br />
<br />
This morning I had yabc, and it was <b>so hot</b>, it was so horrible dancing in the un-airconditioned hall!! Lucky I love it, because I was tempted not to go today. I have another rehearsal tomorrow. After yabc mum and I went out to lunch at an Indian restaurant. At many points ED was telling me all kinds of things about how I would blow up like a balloon etc. etc., but you know what I said in reply?? F-off, ED, don't ruin this for me. I just did 3 hours of dancing, so just go stuff yourself in a mushroom. Yes I did say mushroom. :P<br />
<br />
The other day I got an email from yabc with an attachment about the <b>2010 Adelaide tour</b>. It turns out that while we’re in Adelaide we won’t only be performing at the Fringe Festival, but also in various schools around Adelaide!! I wish I knew which ones. Anyway, I also found out which places we will be performing at in Melbourne in January. I get <b>free tickets</b>, so if any of you girls are from <b>Melbourne</b> and want to see me perform (with about 40 other people); let me know which venue you want to come to!! Here are the dates and venues:<br />
<br />
Saturday 30th January – Substation Arts Centre, Newport.<br />
Sunday 31st January – Frankston Arts Centre<br />
Saturday 6th February – Coburg Town Hall<br />
Sunday 7th February – The Castle, Dandenong and Berwick Secondary College<br />
Saturday 13th February – Maroondah Secondary College (Croydon)<br />
Sunday 14th February – Cromwell Road Theatre, South Yarra<br />
<br />
As I said, let me know so I can hook you up!! ;)<br />
Oh, and don’t you Adelaide ladies fret – I’ll be in Adelaide from the 8th of March until the 14th of March. Hopefully soon I find out which schools we’ll be performing at, it would be <b>awesome</b> if it was any of yours!!<br />
<br />
And I forgot to answer<a href="http://www.creatingsomethingnew.blogspot.com/"> jibbalibba</a>’s question from the other day: I got my <i>smooze </i>icy poles from Coles, they’re in the section with all the ice cream toppings and cones. They were<b> really good</b>, by the way.<br />
<br />
I'm off to study for media. Sorry, I haven't commented many blogs today, but that's because I just got home and I really need to study. I'll catch up on my commenting soon.<br />

TGIF.<br />
I'm sorry about the quality/sound delay/etc. of this video, I was using my <span style="font-weight: bold;">lame</span> webcam on this laptop. I'll be able to post better ones once I can use my <span style="font-weight: bold;">Macbook</span>. I get so awkward and shy on camera :\<br />
<br />
Anyway, I had my <span style="font-weight: bold;">new cereal</span> for breakfast this morning. It was pretty good, well scratch that, it was <span style="font-weight: bold;">delicious</span> :) I kind of forgot to take a photo before I ate it though so here's what it looked like towards the end:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11110.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11110.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><br />
Delicioooous. Look at all them oat clusters ;) My only problem was that I only got two sultanas in my serve!! Mum told me that they all went near the bottom of the packet. Naughty 'tanas :P<br />
<br />
I really should study at some point today, I have a mountain of media and philosophy books waiting for me. No, seriously, a <span style="font-weight: bold;">MOUNTAIN</span>. But after the exam yesterday, I need a bit of a chill out session. Oh, the exam!! I kind of winged it (wung it?) through the exam yesterday, I left one of the essay questions, but all I need to do with this subject is pass, so it's all good. No stress (well there was a bit yesterday, but <span style="font-weight: bold;">shh</span>).<br />
<br />
I'm actually at my grandparent's house today, because the doctor I went to is down the road from their house, plus they're in Cairns at the moment so they won't know haha. The doctor's appointment went okay, they think my chest pains are anxiety so they prescribed some anti-depressant/anxiety pill things, and I basically had to get weighed etc. again. He wants me to come see me once a week now, instead of in a month like we originally planned. He also told me I need to limit my water intake (but but....<span style="font-weight: bold;">I love H20</span>) and drink gatorade type drinks (blech). One thing that weirded me out was that he told me to do exercise that makes me really sweat, like full on exercise?? Uh, does he not see me at the moment?? :\<br />
<br />
Well, I hope you all have a <span style="font-weight: bold;">great day</span>, I know I always say this, but seriously <span style="font-style: italic;">I love you all</span>.<br />
Ich liebe dich <b><3</b><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Last night, mum and I went for a late night walk up to the supermarket, because she wanted some ice cream, and ended up coming back with <b>more than just that </b>;)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here's two of the things we got; <i style="color: purple;">Sultana Oat Crisp Cereal</i>, and <i style="color: #ea9999;">Coconut + Pink Guava icypoles</i>.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11107.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11107.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">When we got back, we watched <i>Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist.</i><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11109.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11109.jpg" width="150" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I needed to buy some cold cereal, because it's getting <b>too hot </b>over here for oats everyday (I know, sadness!!). It's going to be a challenge eating cereal, but I've decided that on my exam days I will have porridge, just because I know it holds me over well for long periods, and I need that when I'm doing exams. But after that, <b>sayonara</b> oats (for now at least)!! :( What will oats and bows be without ze oats?? At least my cereal has oat clusters :P See, I bet you knew I couldn't leave oats behind <b>completely</b>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Tomorrow morning I have a <b>doctor's appointment</b>, which my mum made this morning, for a few reasons. Last night, when I was in bed, my chest was hurting quite a bit, and I was finding it <b>hard to breathe</b>. I wasn't sure whether it was because of <b>exam anxiety</b> or something like that, but I couldn't get to sleep for ages, because I was so <b>scared</b>. Eventually I woke my mum up, and she came and lay next to me, talking to me until we both fell asleep. I woke up at about 6am, and have only had around five hours, but I can't go back to sleep!! Anyway, another reason for the appointment is that earlier this morning, when mum had already left for work, I walked into the kitchen to get my water bottle out of the freezer (yes, it is that hot here), and as I paused in the doorway, I had to hold on to it with both hands. You see, I always get <b>dizziness</b> in the summer, I have all my life, but lately I find that whenever I stand up I get super dizzy. I've kind of gotten used to it, but this time I freaked out, because as I said, I had to hold on to the door with both hands, and everything went black, and I almost <b>blacked out</b>. :S So mum thought it was probably best to see the doctor tomorrow.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If you've gotten through all of that, you're a <b>superstar</b>. I'm a bit<b> nervous</b> for my exam this afternoon, but I'm trying not to think about it, seeing as I know this will be my worst subject, as long as I pass, it's <b>okay</b>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have a nice rest of the day, girls.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Haha I love using Australian slang. Considering nobody I know ever uses it, it's awesome.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">How are we all today?? I'm pretty good, just taking a <b>study break</b>, I only have one more area of study to take notes on, and then I'll probably just read over all my notes again. The funniest part is that this is the most I've written in this exercise book <b>all year</b>. But that's mainly because my teacher <strike>wasn't very</strike> sucked, and barely gave us any notes, or any help at all. So I'm <b>winging it</b>, thanks to the textbook (which funnily enough, is written by my teacher, and isn't helping that much), and some notes for the subject I found online - <b>thank you internet!!</b><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11106.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11106.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Look at all the <b>pretty tabs</b> in my textbook. There was one colour for each area of study, and there's four areas of study. you can't really see them all properly, but they're tabbed in <span style="color: magenta;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: yellow;">yellow</span>, <span style="color: orange;">orange</span>,</span> pink</span> and <span style="color: lime;">green</span> ;) The areas of study are: <i>Washington and Canberra</i>,<i> Continuity and Change</i>,<i> Public Policy</i>,<i> </i>and<i> Contemporary Australian Foreign Policy.</i> Fun, right?? Excuse my horrible handwriting.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm currently in the state library, which was nice and <b>quiet</b> until these two guys sat next to me. They're speaking quite loudly, do they not know it's a library?! Gosh. Haha, I'm so <b>critical </b>sometimes, sorry about that. It's just not the best atmosphere when you're trying to<b> memorize</b> aspects of <b>Australian Foreign Policy</b>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">No eats to post today, because my breakfast was eaten on the tram, and my lunch was sneakily eaten in here about five minutes ago. Dinner's hard to photograph, because I usually eat with mum. Oh, in response to Neela, the book I was talking about is called <i>Stasiland</i>, and it's by Anna Funder. Even though I hated most of the books I studied for Literature, this one was actually quite good, so I recommend it to anyone who wants to maybe learn more about the German Democratic Republic. Listen to me, all <b>nerdy</b> like!! You ladies only come here for the eats, not my <b><strike>marvellous</strike> intelligence</b> :P<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My exam for National Politics is at <b>3pm, AEST</b> (Australian Eastern Standard Time). So synchronize your watches, and <b>think of me</b> at that time?? ;)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'll probably get a post in tomorrow before I leave, because I try not to study too much on the day of the exam, it stresses me out.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have a good day <b><3</b><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I went to my friend's house for a 'study session', which turned into an <b>iPhoto cameraho'</b> session ;) We took breaks in between study to make gluten free marshmallows, and take <b>millions</b> of photos on her mac. It was one of the best days I've had in a while, it was great to be social, let myself go, and <i>laugh</i>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The gluten free marshmallows, before they set.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11105.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11105.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I feel accomplished, because even though we did lots of other stuff, I actually got quite a bit of study done.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh, I almost forgot, I got a very good email today. Remember the <b>audition</b> I went to a couple of weeks ago?? Well I got an email today from yabc saying that <b>I got into the tour</b>!! January we will begin rehearsing, and then in March I get to go and perform at the <b>Adelaide Fringe Festival</b>!! I'm so excited :D<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm off to go have dinner now. I hope you all had a fantastic day, <i>you deserve it</i>.<br />

<br />
It's <b>stifling</b> hot here today. I went out for a walk just before, and all I wanted to do was sit in front of an air conditioner. I <b>burnt my thumb</b> this morning making a cup of tea, so now it matches my other thumb which I <b>cut open</b> cutting mushrooms the other day, what a klutz I am, seriously. And the burnt thumb just makes me feel hotter!!<br />
<br />
These were the dvds I ended up watching with my mum last night:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11088.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11088.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div>I know, Hannah Montana is for kids, but suprisingly I <b>like</b> it ;D<br />
<br />
The song she sings at the end, 'The Climb', really gave me a <b>powerful message</b> last night, so I thought I'd pass it on to you girls.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>I can almost see it<br />
That dream I am dreaming<br />
But there's a voice inside my head saying<br />
"You'll never reach it"<br />
<br />
Every step I'm taking<br />
Every move I make feels<br />
Lost with no direction<br />
My faith is shaking<br />
<br />
But I gotta keep trying<br />
Gotta keep my head held high</i></span><br />
<br />
That's just a verse of the song, but it sent me such a strong message of inspiration, and never giving up hope. And that's what life is all about, especially <b>rebuilding yourself</b> from ED. We need to keep <b>positive</b>, and keep 'climbing'. :)<br />
<br />
Anyway, today I have spent the majority of the morning studying for my second exam which is this thursday. How fun :\<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11089.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11089.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div>My lunch today was delicious. I have named this concoction <i>'multi-layered cinnspice oats'</i>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11091.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11091.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div>Oats with a layer of <i style="color: #e69138;">brown sugar</i>, <i style="color: #990000;">cinnamon</i> and <i style="color: #660000;">mixed spice</i> in the middle, topped with <b>more</b> <i style="color: #e69138;">brown sugar</i>, <i style="color: #990000;">cinnamon</i> and <i style="color: #660000;">mixed spice</i>.<br />
I know it looks the same as usual, but trust me, it didn't <b>taste</b> the same ;)<br />
<br />
Also, something I thought about last night: is anyone interested in doing a <b>bar/food swap </b>with me?? I'll send you Australian bars, plus other Australian goodies?? Let me know.<br />
<br />
Have a lovely rest of the day.AMYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07141183509250996182noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432984914806216664.post-3378537055796729602009-11-08T15:10:00.000+11:002009-11-08T15:10:29.614+11:00<div style="text-align: center;"><i>Good afternoon</i>, lovies.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday I had my end of semester <b>assessments </b>at yabc. This meant we each had to perform part of one of our numbers<b> individually</b>, in front of the rest of the class (which is about 60 people) as well as the dance and music teachers. I have had really bad blocked ears lately, and when I get this I can't hear myself sing properly. Guess what decided to happen on Saturday?? :/ Luckily it was only one ear, and I explained it to the teacher well before hand, but apparently I was good anyway, so hopefully I get <b>promoted </b>at the end of the year.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This morning mum and I went to the <b>Camberwell Market</b>, just for a look around. We bought some second hand clothes, and then ventured through Camberwell, shopping. <b>I bought a couple of things</b>:<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Pop-up penguin advent calendar (I love <b>penguins</b>).<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11078.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11078.jpg" width="150" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Itunes card, CLEO magazine.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11080.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11080.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Handmade <b>scrabble tile</b> necklace.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11086.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="171" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11086.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I <b>loved</b> all my purchases.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">:)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We had lunch at the market, I got a falafel wrap and sweet potato wedges, and we had some sorbet afterwards. I felt okay about these decisions at the time, but I feel <b>sick</b> and full and bloated at the moment, and ED is going crazy in my head to restrict, restrict tomorrow. I'm <b>trying</b> not to listen but the voice is <i>so loud</i> right now. I feel<b> ill</b> :(<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I know this sounds weird, but one of my main triggers at the moment is actually my <b>mum</b>. She skips meals all the time, or when I buy something out, which is really hard for me, she tells me we will share it, but then has <b>none</b>. I end up eating it all and feeling horrible, while she doesn't eat anything. I can't seem to be able to tell her how this is affecting me, but <b><i>it is</i></b>.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyways, sorry about that. I hope you all have a great day. I'm spending the rest of this <b>super hot</b> afternoon lying on my bed, reading my magazine and watching dvds. <i>Love you</i>.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday was <b>major</b>, even though I only did one thing: <b>Literature exam</b>. It was so stressful, but I actually managed to walk out of there feeling <b>okay</b> about it.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here was my pre-exam <b>brain food</b>:<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11075.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11075.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And of course, the<b> exam booklet</b>, which I got to take home.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/075946.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/075946.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">After my exam, mum took me to go see <i>'The Time Traveller's Wife'</i>. It was really good, they stuck to the book pretty well, and it was so sad, but I already knew that it would be, because I read the book recently for the first time. I really<b> reccommend </b>this movie, go see it!!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I'm just having a day off, <b>no studying</b>, I will probably go and check the mail at our PO Box later, we'll see how everything goes.<br />
<br />
Oh and by the way, go check out the fabulous giveaway <a href="http://healthhappinessandhaylee.blogspot.com/2009/11/giveaway.html">Haylee</a> is having!! It's so good, and open to everyone!! Check it out by clicking Haylee's name. <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have a<b> great</b> day, lovies!!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So this morning I went to the doctors, to get my blood test results. Everything was normal, he said that my Iron and Vitamin D were maybe a little low, but that those were easily fixed. Then he wanted me to step on the scales, which was obviously my <b>least favourite</b> part of the appointment. I gained. One week ago the scale was XX.70kg and today it was XX.90kg. Nothing to worry about, right?? Wrong. ED went crazy on me, saying how I failed and how <b>200g</b> was still a big deal, because it was almost a quarter of a kg, and how many extra calories I had to have eaten in order to gain this much, etc etc. It made me really upset, but I couldn't show the doctor or my mum that I felt that way. It was so hard to keep my emotions in check.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Sorry</b> if that was triggering or anything, but it's just the way I felt (or the way ED made me feel). It's like I have this whole thing under <b>control</b>, then suddenly ED storms in and demands to take control over me, and I can't do anything to stop it, even though I'm trying. I'm trying so hard.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I ended up going my grandma's in the morning with mum, it was a little awkward but I feel so relieved that I don't live there anymore. Anyway, we went there basically just to pick up our fridge stuff that we had left there, plus some other stuff, and we ended up staying for a cup of coffee (well mum had one). After that we went to the <b>Radical Grocery Store</b>, and bought some groceries (of course) :P<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11066.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11066.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="color: #f1c232;">Parmazano vegan parmesan shaker</i>, <i style="color: #990000;">Vans Wheat free Apple Cinnamon Waffles</i>, and <i style="color: #741b47;">Blueberry, pomegranate and red grape herbal tea</i><span style="color: #741b47;">.</span><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I can't wait to try the waffles, I actually haven't had waffles since I was in<b> Belgium</b> in 2007, when my family friend's husband, who is Belgian, made us some. They were so good. I've actually been <b>craving</b> waffles lately, so it felt good listening to my craving and buying these. It was a hard choice between these and the <b>blueberry</b> ones, I can tell you that much!!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Tomorrow morning I have a <b>doctor's</b> appointment, and I'll be getting the results from the<b> blood tests</b> I had last week. I hope everything is normal, because I don't want to have to get more tests. :|<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11051.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11051.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's only 4.15pm and already I want to go to bed!! I'm so <b>tired,</b> and it's not as though I've even done anything today, except<b> study</b>. Boooorrrring. But I really need to, because my first exam is on <b>Thursday</b>. Literature, by the way. Blah. I'm really hating it at the moment, it's pretty much killed my love of books. Analyzing them is <b>definetly</b> not as fun as just reading them for myself.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What did I have for lunch today?? <b>I'll bet you can guess</b> .<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11052.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11052.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Of course, and it was <b>yummy</b>, as per usual. I don't know if I've ever shown you guys properly, but here is my <b>favourite</b> bowl.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">All gone!!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I tried one of the cookies I won yesterday, so good. And I also had a bit of the molasses liquorice from the hamper. My afternoon snack ended up being a <i style="color: #ea9999;">pink lady apple</i>. Apples are always good.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Tonight my night will probably consist of an easy dinner, followed by hours of <b>gilmore girls</b> with my mum :) Then back to studying tomorrow. I might be going to the Radical Grocery Store as well, which is an <b>organic/vegan</b> grocery store that I've never been to, but I got a 15% off voucher yesterday that is only for tomorrow, so hopefully I can convince mum to drive me there!!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have a good afternoon/day.<br />

I have to tell you I've had an activity-filled weekend.<br />
<br />
Yesterday, for starters, mum and I moved out of my grandparent's house <b>(finally)</b>, and into our short term accomodation. All I can say is, thank goodness. I really think it was <b>fundamental</b> to my <b>sanity</b> that we leave that house, and I'm not joking. I feel so free now, as though I can finally focus on myself without worrying what other people will say about it. My mum is so<b> supportive</b> right now, and she said that she will eat exactly what I eat from now on, if it will help me to<b> get better</b>.<br />
<br />
Last night, my cousin took me out for my first ever night of <b>nightclubbing</b>. It was....interesting to say the least, but definetly heaps of fun, and I really enjoyed myself. We got picked up by quite a few guys, two who looked 30ish (ew!!) and all of whom were<b> drunk</b>. My cousin hooked up with a guy, it was hilarious. I really loved the outfit I wore, it was my favourite lace neck top, with shorts and pretty tights underneath. I'll post photos some other time. <br />
<br />
This morning, after getting home at 2am, I woke up at about 9am, had breakfast, and then got ready for the day's activities: number one, <b>World Vegan Day</b>. It was held at a place called Abbortsford Convent, and the place was so beautiful, I will post a phone picture that I took at another time, it was <b>gorgeous</b>. I entered a raffle when I got there, not really expecting to win anything, but I did!! I won a hamper filled with <b>vegan goodies</b> :) It had Orgran products, Eco Silk bags, vouchers, carob bars, sweet william samples and vegan pet food (which I'm going to give to my friend, seeing as how I don't have any pets).<br />

</div>You can bet I'll be trying these.<br />

</div>World Vegan Day was awesome, I loved looking (and even trying) the different foods and everything around. I also bought an environmental bag, and a sticker sheet of animal rights stickers that are so <b>adorable</b>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11050.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/LiLmOo_AmYLoU/SDC11050.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
</div>My favourite is the lifesaver pig one :) Sorry, the photo is a bit dark.<br />
<br />
I had a great day, which ended with the best thing - I bought myself a <b>Macbook Pro</b>!!<br />
About two months ago, my Oma gave me some money, and I didn't think I <b>deserved</b> anything, so I didn't even cash in the cheque. Well today, I went to the Mac store and I bought what I've wanted for years. It's so cute and <b>perfect </b>for me, I <b>love</b> it. :)<br />
