It's Official, It's Over, It's Done.

Drew Barrymore month has come to an end. It feel like last week it started and now it is no more. One last photo post to wish 'Drew Barrymore Month' farewell.

Barrymore Coming To An End.

She 'Drew' Me In Like A Tractor Beam.

You Know Where You Can Stick That Tissue?!

My grandmothers sister is a real straight arrow. When I was a kid she always seemed a bit of a frantic and always keeping busy on her toes. Maybe she just seemed that way because I remember her husband as always being so laid back and quiet. 

When I was younger I went to stay at her house for a weekend even though I had the flu. My nose was runny, my throat was sore and I kept sniffing and sniffing and sniffing and sniffing, then I'd stop, then I'd sniff some more. After about an hour she told me to go and get a tissue and blow my nose. I was only 10 or 11, I had no idea what blowing my nose was! I didn't get sick very often so I guess I was never taught. I was always a tissue stuffer anyway, meaning that if I ever had a runny nose i'd just scrunch up a tissue and shove it in my nostril. So classy I know ;) haha. 

Anyway, she told me to go and get a tissue and blow my nose so I got a tissue, wiped my leaky nose then went and sat back down. Not even two minutes later *sniff*.... *sniff* ..... *sniiiiifffff*. My aunty went and got a tissue and told me to blow my nose. 

I wiped my nose, put my finger in the tissue, put the finger in my nostril and thought that would wipe away all the runny stuff but my plan failed. Not even 30 seconds and I was sniffing again so my aunty came over and said she wanted me to blow into the tissue. I did it wrong. I got nothing out. I couldn't get the hang of closing my mouth and forcing air out of my nose. Eventually I got the hang of it but I remember having a throbbing headache by the end of the day. I felt like I was trying to push my brain out of my nose. Ever since that day, I'm proud to still be a tissue stuffer. 

After two weeks of my mum having the flu really bad, I am now a flu-bug myself. Bit of a sore throat and one hell of a blocked and runny nose. My right nostril is currently plugged up, the left one is clear as a bell. The left nostril may be fine but my left ear is infected. I'm up sh!t creek without a paddle. 

A flu is the hardest thing for me to get rid of because any cough mixture makes me need to vomit and cough lollies make my tongue feel like it has 100 paper cuts. On a diet of mandarines and socks. I'm not eating the socks, I just have to wear them as though my life depended on it. 

It's weird, I usually get the flu in summer. Hopefully I'm getting my flu out of the way now so that when I move overseas I can skip my standard summer flu. It'd suck to be sick the first month of being there!

Fantastian = Fantastic + Asian.

I love Asian things. 

I love the food, the fact they bedazzle anything they can get their hands on, the Hello Kitty obsession, the awesome toys, clothes, the technology/gadgets, hair styles, jewelery, photobooths and makeup. 

I even love their fake eyelashes..! 

It's just a huge obsession for me that I didn't really know I had until recently. It became really obvious that I am really into the Asian scene when I found blogs of Asian models, I think they were Japanese and they were freakin hot! They always had perfect airbrushed makeup, always a different hair colour and always wearing a weird but awesome outfit. 

I literally sat there for hours just looking through their photos and saving photo, upon photo, upon photo. Talk about inspiration!! 

I can't wait to move to Italy because I know there will be some fantastic Asian stores in the UK (which is only a half hour plane ride away). I just hope I feel more comfortable walking into Asian fashion stores in the UK, than I do in Australia. 

I dunno why I feel so nervous when I go there. I just feel like they are always judging me. I feel like they are talking about me or saying I'm a try hard and it eventually gets me so paranoid that I end up leaving within 2 minutes! Even leaving doesn't feel like an option sometimes because that makes me think that if I leave without buying something, they are going to say I'm a tightass or a poser/time waster. 

To get rid of this paranoid delusional state, I've come to the conclusion that I need to learn some Asian phrases. Not enough to walk up to someone and have a full blown conversation but enough that I know certain keywords that will either make me feel comfortable (less stress) because I know they are talking about a tv show or a cheating boyfriend OR I'll know they are in fact bad mouthing me so I can give them an evil look and walk out haha. 

I know it sounds stupid and I shouldn't care but it gets to me.  

I also know there are a lot of different Asian languages but I'd like to at least give it a try.

Can anyone help me with this? 

If you are of Asian descent, don't take offense to this post and please don't interpret this as a racism issue. It's just me being paranoid and curious. 

PS - If any Asian chicks are in fact reading, why do you have to be so damn intimidating?! =p

Rolling In Cats.

Woah, I woke up to 17 comments. Thankyou heaps. I had a bad dream lastnight so it was something good to wake up to. 

My dream was that I was rolling in lollies. Sounds like a great dream but they were all the lollies that I don't like. They were teeth, bananas, black cats, yellow jelly babies, green snakes, red raspberries, mint leaves and alot of others. 

I was in the middle of reading a comment and I reached down, pulled a black cat off my stomach (from under a long sleeve top that I just slept in) and put it on the arm of the couch. I didn't even realize what I was doing! It was all warm, soft and it didn't really look like a cat anymore but sure as anything, a black cat was stuck on my stomach.. =\

MMM, weird. 

My mum looked over at me and started cracking up laughing because I didn't realize but she seen me take it off my stomach, put it on the arm of the couch (then the lightbulb went off) and she watched me pick it up and squeeze it to verify what it was. 

Anyone else had a dream come true in some way, shape or form??
