i want to see moulin rouge

Update on KandidFrank:
Buisness cards are done, just have to print and laminate them. i made a cake for monica 2dai...and it didn't work out well.. cos i tried to split one cheesecake into 2 small ones....so...maybe i'll have to try again.
Final Designs: [might change the email address, change it to a website or somewhere with information on KandidFrank]









i've made 2 tshirts

one for marc [a friend of trina's]

and one for emily [my friend]

i also made boxes

none of them are perfect [smudges on shirts and boxes.....andd the boxes are a bit rough]

buh i feel good about them

my older brother is goin wayyy overboard with this whole kandidfrank thing

it's not even his thing!!!

and he's not doing anything...

he just....keeps telling me i HAVE to do this and i HAVE to do this...so like: 'wat did i tell you? i told you that you HAVE to do this PERFFEECCT'

it defeats the whole purpose of KAndidFrank

well the purpose of kandidfrank for me...

getting some money for doing stuff that i enjoy

i'm already stressed cos of the damn smudges that keep happening and the damn cardboard that won't make perfect boxes [i have a cardboard-cut [not a papercut] on my index finger...it's annoying] and i really don't need him to do this...

i don't want to hear about how not-perfect the damn turtle is...or the print...

i already noe it's not perfect....

but i don't think it has to be...

he's got this huge sleeek and elegant picture in his mind. KandidFrank for me is more of a...closer to an 'indy' type of thing...but not as indy as the paper bags [no offence to trina]

yup so...

wen i asked my brother if he had seen this part of the box i had done after his advice

and he said 'no, until you listen to my advice, don't talk to me'

wat the hell

he doesn't have the rite to say that

HE doesn't do anything

I [trying to make it look big but it just looks normal so...imagine that all the capital I's are hugee] am the one that has to talk to get customers, I am the one that has to figure out wat will work out best for them, I am the one that has to actually plan all these money things and equipment, I am the one that has to actually plan all the measurements out so that it doesn't stuff out and waste materials, I am the one that has to go and cut everything with a stanely knife and then masking tape all around so that it doesn't go over, I am the one that has to mix the paint, I am the one that has to try and roller over the stencils without accidently wrecking anything, I have to make sure it's all dry before I iron the print for 5minutes [might not sound long but it sure seems it]...I am the one doing everything

i never even said he was a part of it...

he knows he's not an official part of KandidFrank

it's fine to give advice

but you've got to accept that i mite not take it!!!!!!

and there is a time wen i just don't want advice

sometimes i just need to know that all that work and stressing and slitting has all come together and that i've done a good job...

------------------------------------------------- end of bitching

so trina found this place on the web that sells shirts...

still $10....but we haven't been able to find any less newai

so...we mite as well

yeh i'll take some picks of the boxes and the shirts sometime and put them up

alrite....

i'm gonna go

oh yeh i've started dwlding friends

it's funny

days like these

had a quik look around deviantart and found some pice
this pick may be a bit....depressing but it looks sooooo awesomeeee as in...a person...drew it...most of it...

yehh haven't blogged for ages....

i just sent an email to my grandma and i think i'll just put it here....

hello grandma
i've read about screen printing before but i've never actually understood it, i haven't seen it done either.
i just know that you need more equipment than if i were to stencil and that it's usually the preffered technique for printing. i'd like to learn it sometime.
KandidFrank is going a bit bumpy as there are a few legal problems...or legal-things-that-could-be-problems that keep nagging at my mind. but yeh i've got a few people that want shirts, one wanting to see my designs so i went home and went crazy sketching them. and the partner that i didn't want is now my manager, so it's all good now.
ahhh i wish winter would hurry and leave. it's soo cold and yeh...i want to wear this skirt that used to be a pair of pants i never wore...^________^
Brian's going to make dinner tomorrow
he's planning on making stir fried hokkien noodles with chicken and oyster mushrooms with out the mushrooms, ginger, vinegar or cooking wine. lol this should be interesting.
well this is the time of year that the school gives seminars and advice about how to figure out what we want to be doing for the rest of our life and how to do it. it's a bit stressing since i'm not so sure about my future.
your life sounds so exciting, although i still am not very clear on what it is exactly that you do...
i envy you for being able to dance. i've only been to one school disco in primary school [which cos 50c entrance fee] and all we did was jump around...up and down up and down..... and i went to one social in year 7....i found that not much had changed. sure we had cooler decorations and an actual dj and food....but all we did was jump around...up and down..until 10:30
i probably will never go to anymore dancing events ^_____^
i'd love to be able to go into a place and just be able to dance....being all loose and feeling the music inside....and not worrying about wat other people MIGHT be thinking about me
well i reckon i'll go to sleep now
good night!

yeh so i'm really going to go sleep now...

i'm getting OLLLDDDDDDDDD

rum?

this morning/afternoon i've gone crazy dwlding

i've gone on google and searched similar artists to all the people that i like....


so i've dwlded songs of:

billy idol
chuck berry
duran duran
eurythmics
robert johnson
tears for fears
the everly brothers
the righteous brothers
the monkees
neil diamond
the police
the doobie brothers

and i stopped myself there

it's reallii cold here

we've got the back door open and no heaters are on

this is all because my father is redoing the bathroom and we need to keep going in and out so the door is open

i helped for a bit

just standing in for brian hu was eating lunch

there's not enough room for my dad and me and brian

so i just let brian do the stuff

my mother is going to visit grandmother so i will stay home and watch over the telephone

yesterdai i wrote a list of movies i want and movies i need to watch

stuff i must see:

the godfather
pulp fiction
the office
the prestige
the illusionist

yes...not a very long list

stuff i want:

pirates: ALL
Harry potter: ALL
coupling: season 1&4
Help!
the Beatles anthology
constantine
gladiator
kill bill2


yeh...gladiator was a bit random...i just had the image of russell crowe standing in the middle of the stadium and yelling and stuff

and constantine...love movies about...that type of thing....demons and all...that aren't too scary and aren't to...gay...plus it has keanu reeves being cooool

i will go now

saucepan of stuff

just then

i was stirring my saucepan of stuff for cake: butter, sugar, cocoa, water and bicarb soda

and it started to overflow

i stood the screaming: AHHHHH IT'S OVERFLOWINGG!!!

and lukily my mother came to the rescue and came yellin at me to pick up the saucepan buh i was frozen so she did it

it is now in a big mixing bowl cooling down outside

i think i did a good job ^____________^

walking in straight lines

my mother is lying on my bed [which happens to be right behind me...as in my chair is touching the bed] talkin to my aunty on the phone about how we are such a dissappointment to my parents

well she said that brian is good

and that sometimes my olda brother does some stupid things

buh yes i reallii suck

i've been grounded

so i've had to cancel all my plans for this holidays

annnddd

my mother won't lemme bake anymore

so wen i ask her wat to do she tells me to clean

...so then wat do i do for FUN? my father sais that i will find cleaning fun

somehow i doubt it

firstly i was 'grounded' cos my father has gone psycho and is planning to...like renovate the house

he's alreadii made me and brian paint all the window frames and he's changed the sinks in the other house and he's planning to change the whole of the bathroom here.....and then eventually the kitchen

well basically...my father will be doing stuff....and i am grounded to stay home and help

and then

the next day i was grounded for leaving the room wen they came in

so i'm feeling pretty miserable

yesterday was supposed to go to trina's place

2dai was gonna go to danielle's to support ppl doing 40hr famine

and eat pizza

and i think we were gonna go iceskating this week as well

and next week primary skool ppl were gonna see harry potter

ahhh

miserable-ness

i alwais end up grounded on the holidays

well

i'm gonna watch spiks and specks 2nite

and the chaser's war

and probably some very painful korean dramas

and then dream of all the things i could have been doing

like eating a yummy cake that i had baked

or being with other people

i miss skool

...all the people

allll the lonely people...where dooo they all come from

well the lonely people come from being grounded by mis-understanding parents

guess wat i'm listening to

duran duran

i'm dyinngggggggggggggg

and now i will go bak to lying across my mother's legs and throwing my big soft-toy pig up to the ceiling over and over again...

100th POST!

i can't sleep at the moment

last nite i stayed up till 3-4 watching dramas and only went to sleep cos my eyes were being weird and watering ToT

then the next morning i woke up wen my mother came home..which was 12noon

and yeh my skin is real not good these days...

probably cos i stay up late and i ate some chips and i haven't been eating veges [buh i've started eating bananas again!!] and cos i've been sorta sik...[i think i'm ok now] and hayfever going around....and cos it's that time of the month

all these things make my skin go red and blotchy....and swollen

not a good feeling to wake up to

oh...rite update on my brother

he's ok

just a bit of a limp

ended up....his car was at the end of the line of corollas and they had fallen behind. his friend was driving and it was wet from the rain and they were turning and they slammed into an oncoming car. the front is totally smashed....the glove box came down and crushed my brothers feet and the radio area came way forward

my brother's got insurance so it's not that bad....he says he'll get a S200 next

so it's real lucky that my brother is ok

he's real sad for his loss of car

well i'm gonna go sleep now

yeh i was gonna talk about how i was listening to all these kasey chambers and missy higgins and feeling very lonely and sad..

sleep now

nite

elvis presley

i hope it isn't

this morning my older brother left to go on a cruise with other ppl in his car club

he got into a car crash and is now in the hospital

i was in the shower wen the call came so my parents and brian left without me

and now i'm just waiting

it probably isn't very serious
