...SO not even going to bother with sleep, considering the hour I have to tumble out of bed to go pick up Pao at Spencer St Southern Cross.

This one is rather self explanitory
Anyone who get's this one is a legend.
Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog: Joss Whedon set out to make a production without the studios. It's very cute and funny but with that Joss angst. A musical about a super villain on the up and up, the woman he falls in love with at the Laundromat and his arch-nemesis.
I want Dr. Horrible fic!
Attention: This will be going down at midnight 20th of July in the U.S. This mean if you want to watch it you only have about 20 hours from now to do so.
Since I am prone to link gathering frenzies that could flood my LJ friends' friends pages and make me a most unpopular girl. I've created a couple of linkroll widgets and embedded them into a "sticky" at the top of my LJ because I can't help wanting to share them anyway. I would have put them in my journal's side bar but LJ coding doesn't to allow it.
The first linkroll is for food, craft and recycling projects that I find all over the www. The second linkroll widget does not feel like working today so I've taken it down until the problem's fixed. That one is for my anthropology, religion and psych links that I save in case they're useful for uni work.
I'll still share the links I think my LJ friends will particularly appreciate but if you feel like seeing what else I've been bookmarking lately, just go there to see them.
You'll notice that there is another "sticky" post after that. These are for my Wists and button links to some of my other web hide-outs. The first Wist widget is for think we need to get for our new baby expected in September, and the other is for sewing and craft things that I like.
Tonight I set the oven to 180 degrees, set patty-papers to pan and opened my favourite cupcake book to the standard vanilla cake recipe.
Then I realised I had no self-raising flour.
So I found the spare in our cupboard. When I opened it I found moths had laid eggs all through the flour.
I really want to move to my own kitchen. :(
So I got a sewing machine at last. This is very exciting and scary. I have accumulated many ambitious visions over the years while waiting for this to happen and now I am uncomfortably aware of how the build up of frustrated ambitions far exceed my skills. I don't even know how to thread the thing!
Heath moved the desk that's been sitting on the veranda for the last 2 years into the computer room and knocked out the drawer underneath so I could have a bench to sew on that I could also fit my legs under. I've been having fun all weekend turning the area into a "creative space", reorganising all my craft and sewing bits and pieces into bottles and boxes so I can see and access them more easily. William's been helping too. ;)
I've also been working on converting one of our crappy $6 cork notice boards into a French Memory Board for Heath (an example here). It was just going to be a blokey black and red, baby-safe (no pins) noticeboard to hang next to the computer. However as I ran out of ribbon and had to improvise, it turned into something too good to be hidden away in the 'puter room. Now it will be hanging in the loungeroom and will hold things of more sentimental value. It's not perfect by I am proud of it as a first effort. Unfortunately the webcam on my Macbook has stopped working so I can't put up a picture of it tonight. I'll have to wait until day time to take a photo with the cameraphone.
So I finally finished reading Twilight Watch just then.
Random flailing and my thoughts on the Night Watch series as a whole under the cut
( SPOILERSSSS )
Hiya people!
Just wanted to let y'all know that Manifest Online Rego is now open here!
Also- Happy Birthday Tannnnnnieeeee<33
Hope you enjoyed your present!
My shift at the pharmacy was boring tossed in a mundane jus served on a bed of crotchety geriatrics. It's not normally like this but for some reason every foul tempered person in the Northern suburbs decided it was national "Irk Gemma Something Rotten Day" and proceeded to celebrate by orchestrating the worlds slowest, disjointed parade through the store. Really guys; there was no need.
And while I'm on the subject of ill tempered people harassing me; people get very angry when you tell them their credit card isn't working. The visceral reaction they have to the news is unlike anything I have ever seen. It's as though you've punched their grandmother to the floor only more outraged. I'm making a mid-year resolution. I will try my hardest not to bitch and moan about my job; it's a great job, the best job I've ever had (and I'm not lying about that)and the above paragraph will be the last on any of the various indiscretions my job may through at me.
In other news; I dragged my fella to see Mamma Mia last night. Needless to say he was less then impressed though it did manage to drag a few good yuks from his chick flick intolerant soul. I still giggle when I think of the flipper dance. Ahh good times. Also I must see the Dark Knight. Though really there's little point because Nikhil the pharmacist gave me a shot by shot retelling of the whole three hour spectacle...all in a very thick Indian accent. Hilarious.
I also spent last night reacquainting myself with the internet, mainly Zero Punctuation and the amazingly brilliant Yahtzee, Google it and you will not be disappointed. Well you might be if you have a deep seated hatred of the gaming world and if you're devoid of all humour. And I also got Levi hooked on Brotherhood 2.0, sharing obsessions is fun.
I'm getting very excited about the coming uni semester; I keep obsessively checking the faculty website to see if my classes have been posted; so far only Media Law and Ethics has been which I am really excited for, the lecturer is one of the funniest people I have ever met; she makes lame Shakespeare jokes and is one of the quirky people that I love being taught by. This semester is shaping up to be quite eclectic, I'm doing a law unit, a psych unit, a design unit aaaand one more, marketing or management.
My epic post is still to come.
sweetestillness here is yours!!!!

Drink up baby,
look at the stars
I’ll kiss you again
between the bars
1. Day One: Hiro
2. Day One: Peter
3. Day Two: Hiro
4. Day Three: Peter
5. Day Four: Hiro
6. Day Five: Peter
7. Day Five: Hiro
8. Day Six: Peter

A/N: I feel mildly guilty about asphyxiating Hiro all the time. I don’t know why it keeps happening; it’s wildly unnecessary!
A/N 2: Sorry for how long this took. As you guys can probably see, it’s a little bit of an awkward chapter, and I did have quite some trouble with it. Also—I do want to say that I’m stretching Sylar’s characterization for my plot’s purpose, which a good author should never do—but what can I say? As we’ve seen in the past two seasons, after all, Sylar is hardly a negotiating man—and it doesn’t matter if he wants Adam’s power more than Hiro’s; he still isn’t going to sit down and have a chat with Hiro about how to get it. I am aware of this. I’m just a bad writer who can’t figure out any other way to get her plot to work. Mmm’kay?
And now, for a meme (I know, you cower).

FRIENDS ONLY



This is my new journal.
I was known as cherie666
But when making an account I wanted the name to simply be buttons, it was taken so I tried it with underscore etc etc, so many are taken, so I tried different names I was sure NO ONE could have... none of them worked.

This journal will be the same as my old journal, talking about Japan, their fashion and Lolita.
So feel free to add me.
I have moved my journal!
I am now known as
[Bad username: buttonss I will be adding all the friends I currently already have on my friends list. Everything will be the same its just I didn't like the name i had. [info]buttonss [info]buttonss [info]buttonss [info]buttonss [info]buttonss [info]buttonss I will be deleting this account in a few days. ]
An hour left to go at work. I woke up with ten minutes to get ready to leave this morning, so I've felt stinky and not really awake all day. I have been eating awesome brownies though, and this roast duck and crispy pork on rice is fucking nice. Thanks for telling me about that place Louis :D
Can't wait to go home, have a nice shower or bath or something, and relax on the couch. And do some hand sewing so I can finish off this commission tonight. Yes. Oh and I need to sketch up that design for you Ali, I'll try and do that tonight as well. DX
I had something else to say but I can't remember what it was anymore. Ah well.
I am really struggling to keep my eyes open. I was planning on reading on the way home (almost finished Twilight Watch dammit! I've been trying to get time to finish this book for almost a year now DX), but I don't think my eyes can focus on anything right now, so I think I'll just sleep on the train instead. XD
Aerynpie visiting me tomorrow! Yay! 8D
current mood: accomplished
I waxed my armpits today. I lifted my hairy underarms to a total stranger and just let her rip the little buggers out of there! I can't stop touching myself now... It's so smooth *___* much better than what you'd get with a cream or a shave o.o-b
I went to 'Strip' in the Curve. They just opened a week ago and I am so happy! I have been planning a trip to their bangsar outlet for so long but have heard all the horror stories about there being a long long waiting list ;_; I felt good there. Will definately make it a monthly event from now on ^_^ Good thing I don't have discoloured or dark pits. I think that would make it more embarassing. The girl was already commenting on how stubborn my hairs were >.>;; kept saying that I had like 2 hairs growing out of one pore *dies with embarassment*
The ambience was good. Everyone has a nice 'soundproof' private room to themselves.
It was such a nice experience that I just might and I said 'might' go back for a brazillian *does the hoochie brow lift with mouth open look*
