Counting the days

Lets see..... *counts fingers* it is exactly 23 days til I'm one year older and exactly 22 days til I'm an official home owner. There is also exactly 27 days til I'm jetting off overseas to enjoy my break in Istanbul, Athens and of course, the Greek Islands. Oh, I'm forgetting my short 1day stop over in Singapore. Just long enough to have a massive shopping spree of my favourite shopping centres (Yes I have favourites in Singapore...considering how many times I've been there).

Oh...did I forget to count the 21 days until my exam for the course I've been doing? I also have from now, until I leave, to finish off all the preparation work for a project so that there will hopefully be no hiccups whilst I'm on holiday. Not so hard you say? Well...lets see...theres about 5-6 weeks worth of work to be done in the 3-4 weeks before I leave. Right now, I'm already planning overtime and weekend work for when I come back. So I will be relaxing and enjoying myself on the beach, only to come back and jump right into overtime work. Fun. Oh...silly me. I also went and booked my return flight to Sydney for the 14th of October. Which is also the day I go back to work. So the plan is, arrive in Sydney at 6am, get my luggage and be out of customs by 6:30am. Home by 7:00am, shower, change and leave the house for work at 7:30am! Its perfect! Add the massive hangover I intend to give myself by consuming mass amounts of free alcohol on the flight...I should be at work at 8:30, just in time to run to the local cafe and ask the lovely lady to make me a nice extra strong hot Mocha.

You know what? After listing out stuff I need to do for the next few weeks.....I forgot to include study leave! Ha..ha...funny that...I guess that what the hours between 11pm-7am is for. Of course I need to take into account that this month is also my Mum's birthday (Tomorrow), Dad's bday (18 days), my little cousin's daughter's bday (3 days), 2 other friend's bday, father's day (3 days) and of course...my own birthday. (Hopefully minus the horrible hangover this year) With so much shit coming up...No wonder I'm always sick of parties by the time it's my turn. Probably why I never want a cake for my bday nor can I be bothered organising anything. Oh...I forgot to throw in the wedding I need to go to which I don't want to go to which my parents are forcing me to go to which I probably won't end up going. If that makes sense.....

*SiGH*

I so can't wait for my holiday...

On another note.....

• Weekend was GOOD! Mars bars and Toblerone Fondue! mmMMmmMmMMMmm And this time it actually worked! Woohoo!! All we were missing was the crushed nuts to roll the dipped fruit in! Well...we did by the nuts...we just cbf crushing it! Ending up dipping the nuts in chocolate and eating them that way.

• we celebrated my mums chinese bday on saturday with a massive feast of Crabs and oysters and scallops and mussels and other stuff. The only problem? My mum doesn't like seafood! LoL But then it wouldn't be a feast if it was just vegies and chicken. Obviously we had other food that my mummy likes :D

• Went to the driving range on the weekend. I haven't been in AGESSSSSSSSSSSSSS! This time, I tried a different stroke and I watched the ball fly!! (Ok..stroke and ball shouldn't go in the same sentence..maybe I should have used swing...oh wells) I'm now hitting close to the 100m mark! w00t! The fact that it was windy may have helped. Although..at one stage, the wind changed directions and I think I actually smacked a few balls onto the actual golf course and not onto the driving range :X

• I don't care what you say, I'm not honkie and I don't look like a honkie! But...I look honkie. Only recently anyway. I never learn. Never ever ask a honkie to dye your hair if you don't want to look like a honkie! FFS! I'm the perfect candidate for the red head matches right now.... *SiGH* Atleast its not AS bright as it was on saturday...

• I can't go boxing. Not for awhile anyway. My fist is SCREWED! It looks all good until I start hitting. Its like all the meat on my fist has been tenderised by a mallet :T I'm hoping to go buy wrist wraps on the weekend and hopefully they'll help. I'll try to go next week...but probably good for it to heal up before I start pounding away again :T

• I spent the past 3 days doing nonstop quilling. YES I AM BACK! MAUahAUah Been quilling a massiveeeeeeee frame for my mums bday pressie which I should finish tonight. I've been up til 1am every night this week working on it. My fault really...I have so much craft stuff its not funny (Ask cookies the size of the box I use to store my craft stuff). I have to pack away every trace of my quilling every night incase my mum goes into my room the next day and see traces of my project. Almost over.... *rubs eyes and back*

• Almost time for my 6 months review.....damnit I WANT ANOTHER PAYRISE! I have a mortgage damnit! GRRRRRRRRRRRR Must prepare for battle! Which means I now have to go back to work. *SiGH*

Til next time!
