Movie Review: Borat (Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan)
Went to see this tonight at Sun Cinemas with Lisa - it was so bust out, and we didn't stop laughing the entire time. "I arrived in America's airport with clothings, U.S dollars and a jar of gypsy tears to protect me from AIDS". The vision of Borat ramming gypsies with a hummer were priceless, and his presentation of a bag of shit to his dinner party hostess, well, that was beyond priceless. Borat and his quest for Pamela Anderson's non-existant virginity, along with his new found friend, Mr Jesus, was something to be seen. Definitely one for the dvd collection.
Five stars *****

Last night was my brother's school Christmas party (Kimberley School of the Air). Complete with visits from the Eagle Boys Pizza Eagle and Santa. Was an alright evening - the presentations ended up being more of the Leslie Show (my mum was up and down all evening presenting stuff and making speeches). Nahhhhhh mum, j/k, u was cool up there, even left some of the funny bits in there :P

The highlight (depending on where you were standing) was after the dinner, when they had karaoke, with a proper DJ and all, in the common room at the camp school. All the other kids put their names down for the usual old stuff - Jingle Bells, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, blah blah blah. But not Matt (my brother). No, after all his practice on SingStar - he got up in front of everyone and belted out Nirvana's 'Smells like Teen Spirit' - word for word. He blew all the others out of the water, along with his duet partner Mr Ben. I think he also left Mr Jones shaking his head! See below...

Another one to add to my Christmas wish list...

My piano paid off at Chinatown Music

I think there's still $699 left owing on it - it would have been $599, but after buying the digital camera this week, it left me a bit skint in the bank account. Hopefully by Christmas time it will only be $299 or so left to go (fingers and toes crossed), and I'd love to have it when I find myself a place to rent...

Never underestimate the power of an empty house...

For the first time in 4 weeks, I have the house to myself. No teenage cousins with attitude to deal with. No one fighting over the television - in fact it's not even turned on! Just me, the internet, my music (yes, MY music!), and silence. Tonight's definitely clinched my decision to move out as soon as I can find something I can afford, which in Broome is a challenge in itself. But they say challenges are good for the soul, and if it means that every night is like tonight, then BRING IT ON!!!

Well, I am proud to announce that I did not have one single blonde moment today. Except for the this morning when I got to work and had forgotten my shoes. But that wasn't technically 'blonde' - more 'battle-fatigue'... Just proves that not-so well known piece of wisdom, "Never miss an opportunity to keep your mouth shut!". I don't remember where I heard that little gem, but it seems so appropriate for me at times.

Bought myself a little Sony CyberShot digital camera today. I really didn't go into the Rick Hart store with the intention of buying anything - just to look. But I was a bit pissed off at the world, and in a moment of ire, just happened to buy the camera. Retail therapy, I think they call it - most girls find it by clothes shopping - I tend to sway towards electrical goods for the same fix. Nice camera though, and much easier to carry around at any time. 6MP and 3x optical zoom. I don't really need much optical zoom anyway - I have my big camera for that. Will post some pics on here when I get a chance...

OMG, I have had the crappiest day today. You know those days when everything you do seems to annoy or offend people around you, when there was absolutely no intention to do so; and when every moment turns into one of those Kodak Blonde Moments? Yeah, one of those...

And so I now declare, that tomorrow is going to be a Blonde Moment Free Day. Not that I'm even blonde, but I figure, I'm going to need all the positive thinking I can get.

In the meantime, there are still 2 hrs and 7 mins left in today - my parting thought...

In the market for a new digital camera... Not that there's anything wrong with the one I've got (a Fujifilm Finepix S5500). But it's so big, and awkward to carry around - especially for those snapshot moments, like hanging out with friends, dinner etc. I don't want to spend too much though, seeing as my other one works perfectly, and was reasonably expensive. Maybe this is another one to add to the Christmas list...

OT: Only $699.00 left to pay on my digital piano!!! What now, it feels like it's been forever, but it's only actually been 3 weeks or so... Time flies, huh?

You're Totally Sarcastic

You sarcastic? Never! You're as sweet as a baby bunny.
Seriously, though, you have a sharp tongue - and you aren't afraid to use it.
And if people are too wimpy to deal with your attitutde, then too bad. So sad.
