I'm moving!

As I said in my last entry, Mum and I have to move. Well, we finally found a place! It's small, but bigger than the place we're currently in. It will become a tad more cramped in October, when Sera moves in, but that's only going to be for a little while, until Sera and I find a place of our own.

Here's a rough Paint-drawn floorplan, that isn't to scale, but hopefully relatively close to!



So, we'll be moving in on the 3rd and 4th. Grandma and hopefully my uncle, Dean, are coming down to help on the 3rd so with any luck, we'll get a fair bit done that day. Then the next day, Kathy and Keith (Mum's best friend and her husband) and Todd (a family friend) will be helping to move what's left of our belongings.

It shouldn't be too difficult getting things organised, as the layout of the house is identical to that of my Gran's. Mum will be taking bedroom 1 and I'll most likely be in bedroom 3. When Sera comes on October 23rd, she'll obviously have bedroom 2. I think the dining area will be decked out as a computer room until Sera and I move, but goodness knows where our rat cages will go!

I'm actually looking forward to the move, I just don't want to pack anything. All I've done so far are my CD's and DVD's, and I have to pack up everything that is in my bureaus and that is hanging off my clothes rack. Oh, and all the stuff on the floor, lol. Shouldn't really be too difficult, but I tend to get incredibly stressed out while packing my belongings. Mum says she will help me next week, and as I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday, I think I may ask him for a prescription for something like Valium, lol.

We've already arranged for the power, gas and phone to be connected, and I just submitted the application to relocate the internet connection (it cost me $99!) so we're doing well. The internet won't be connected until at least the 10th, so no pointless blogs until after then!

Anyway, wish us luck in our move! Unless something drastic happens between now and moving day, I won't post again until the internet has been connected at the new house. But when that happens, I will most likely upload some photos of the house for all to see!

And I think that's a long enough blog for now.

Adios!

Stuff and other stuff...

Yet again, it's been a long time since my last post, and as usual, I don't have a good excuse, haha.

Well, important things first...Mum and I have been given 4 weeks notice for our unit, so now comes the great house-hunt. She's looking in the opposite end of town to where I want to live, but that's okay, as I'll be moving again sometime after Sera gets back in town. Speaking of Sera getting back, it's looking like she'll be moving in with us until such time as she and I find a place to live.

Next things next, I want to try mineral makeup, but I don't really know what brand to try. I don't want to spend a fortune on it, just in case it sucks, but I also would prefer not to buy a drugstore brand, like L'Oreal. So suggestions will be lovely!

Anyway, enough chattering now =D

It's been a while...

It's been quite some time since my last entry, but nothing has happened!

Ok, I lie...a bit has happened =P

On the 31st August, Disturbed played live in Adelaide. I took over 400 photos and Mum made a few videos on her cell phone. To view the photos, see my MySpace. It was an AWESOME show! But I was exhausted and incredibly sore afterwards...totally worth it!

Also, the Royal Adelaide Show is on this week. I went on Monday with Abe, met Mum there, then met Rosie and Wynona a bit later, and Grandma a bit later again. It was pretty fun, but again with the exhaustion and soreness. I went with $100 dollars, came home with $55. I only bought lunch, a show bag and went on a ride with Rosie. Insanity really! It's unusual for me to return with money, but I guess the novelty of cheap toys and such is wearing off for me...

Anyway...enough for now!

Bye!

Famous cats, rats and possibly some mice

I've come to realise that I have somewhat of an obsession with cats and rats. It's funny =D So along with the Whiskas commercials I posted earlier, I've decided to torture my readers with more videos of famous cats, rats and possibly some mice =D
