sunday morning it is

i've just had a weird dream

it was a very long one about many things

it had kungfu dogs, buddhist temples, the mafia, killer sandwiches, heath ledger, cameron diaz and another girl...forgot hu it was, frogs in a pond, crazy traffic, advertisements for nuts, footpaths lit in the night, light posts, crazy sky activity, strange romance, charity....that's all that will come to me now

so like usual, everything is split into sections, like different stories

and i have no idea about order except for the last two

but lets talk about the kungfu dogs, buddhist temples, the mafia and killer sandwiches

so there's me, and two other guys

we're like...super cool kungfu superheroes...i think i had a long stick

and actually i'm not sure if it was me....maybe it was just the girl that was wearing the dress that i was thinking of wearing today and i just watched her the most

any way, we're standing there...looking cool, listening for trouble, and then the girl hears a bell ringing 'a mile away' and starts running...the others follow

there's some trouble at a buddhist temple, all of the dogs have turned into people and are...not killing people cos there was no killing in my dream...just smacking them....

...now i've gone blank

somehow, we've changed characters to a tall guy, walking into this really big asian...temple-like building, but there is apparently a party going on behind the door after the 'reception desk'. and there's this guy sitting behind the desk giving orders...there are some people that need to be killed but they don't want them to be done all at once...i think the guy that they wanted killed last was 'sanders' or something

so he's got this tray of sandwiches and he's showing another tall guy which ones go to who....and then the main character comes up to the desk and watches, then once the first guy goes into the room with the tray of killer sanwiches the guy behind the desk pulls out another tray....but it's a lunch box instead? and then i [main guy] start trying to remember wat goes to who, apparently i've heard it before and am trying to recite it...but there are some extra bits and pieces in there that i don't recall seeing before

the only one that i can remember at the moment is that one of the killer foods is for a telemarketer

i point out that there are some things that should not be there and that maybe it was because it was somebody's lunch box

the guy behind looks frustrated and then...the scenario switches

there's three more to go

i don't know if i can be bothered...i have a lot of hw to get started on

actually the next bit....is actually a continuation of the mafia one...just the same main character

it's got, heath ledger, cameron diaz and another girl....and a whiteboard on wheels, a computer desk chair, a chorus of girls, a piano

so from the temple, the main character guy walks out and meets....one of the girls....i duno actually, it's all a bit complicated, eventually, he ends up at this place where he tells the 2nd girl to go into one room while he goes into the 2nd....and this fat guy comes rushing in with the chorus of girls and starts frantically, madly? telling main character guy about how....either he hasn't been doing much work lately or he has to pay for rent i duno...something like that

but main character guy just brushes him off, pulls of his shirt and goes into the other room

ok so wat's happening is, there is main character guy, with the 2nd girl that he met on the way, with the first girl that he met hiding behind a big whiteboard on wheels and watching from the sides....and there's...me? sitting on a computer chair...actually not a computer chair...just a chair...without a back, but it can turn round and is on wheels....and the first girl sometimes hide behind me too

at this point, i sorta get the impression...like something tells me, that the girl hiding, is cameron diaz, the main character is heath ledger and the other girl...i've forgotten

so i somehow noe that heath ledger is trying to seduce the other girl...and they're dancing and singing and stuff...and the chorus girls come in and play the piano for music and watch on the sides....one of them tries to reveal cameron diaz, but cameron stays put behind that whiteboard

i think that's it for this scenario

the next one is: crazy traffic, advertisements for nuts, footpaths lit in the night, light posts, crazy sky activity, strange romance, charity....somehow linked to the frogs in a pond

i think this part is influenced partially by the little segment of 'the notebook' that i watched yesterday

just, as a foreword...this is a bit embarassing for me ok

so we're at skool, and in this one, i am definitley the main character, for some reason i'm talking to david, my old crush, and he's taking me up and over the stairs that take you from the yr 12 lockerbay and up kinda to the senior skool office, or to the library...

i think we're talkin about a ride home

so we're over the stairs, but instead of the..place that should be there....there is the dock, pier thing from 'the notebook' but with railing around it...and there are a whole lot of parents hanging around there

he's taking me to his parents so he can ask if i can get a lift home

i'm looking around trying to figure out which ones are his parents

and it ends up that his mum looks like wats her name from 'the notebook's mum...except asian....and his dad just looked old, with glasses and asian...maybe like the old noah?

so yeh, i remember thinking while david explains to his mum....i thought that the mum better not think anything funny like we were a couple or anything cos i mean he already has a girlfriend and that i was just getting a lift and that were old friends.....which is weird because we are definitley none of those things in real life

she seems to approve and then we just stand there on the dock looking at the sky, because it is now nighttime and there are stars in the sky, it isn't dark yet, but then for some weird reason it looks a bit fake, the sky, and then suddenly the last of the light goes out like someone had just flicked it off....david puts his arm around me and it doesn't seem like a weird thing.....

the stars do some weird movement....like they were a shell around the earth and it is rotating itself around...really fast....but it's just the stars...

and the sun is still visible...although the sky is dark

i lean my head on his shoulder and he looks down at me,and this is wen i realise, i as in me looking bak on it, that it wasn't david at all...but just a guy....a much taller, much handsome-er looking guy....but it was just something telling me, like how i knew that cameron diaz was hidding behind a whiteboard and heath ledger was seducing a strange woman with song and dance, that it was david

anyway, the sun starts rapidly moving down the sky, like in those cartoons where they try to show that time has gone by....and it is very weird...and unusual in the dream...so it is not a normal thing in this dream world

and then out from under the pier...a vey close friend of mine with another comes sneaking out...i go join them and have a bit of a hissy fit at them for eavesdropping....and i have the image of them sitting underwater on one of those wheels that are usually tied to a tree and swung....and the really really close friend has big curly hair so it's all over the place...

and they tease about david contributing to some charity....as in somehow, the lift home was actually...i remember a number with a 5 in it...like $5000.....

we start walking home...and this confuses me now, because wasn't 'david' going to give me a lift? and the way home is different now, it is still night time, but the footpaths are lit by the warm kind of light from shops and stuff...and there are lightposts and i remember going around a very pretty corner...

and then...the second friend of mine suddenly gets down on the footpath and there is a whole lot of nuts spread over half of the footpath and she uses her foot, with a red sock on it, to brush a red line across them...then looks up at us and smiles...then it turns into a tv commercial for nuts...with a voice over and everything...we keep walking...and there are people with red socks and nuts everywhere

i remember something about it hurting to walk over them...

and then something happens to cause the traffic lights to stop working and suddenly all of the drivers have gotten a case of road rage and it's pretty scaring

we get annoyed since one of the cars tried to run over one of us so i randomly kick a white car going past...the woman gives me a look

and then....we're home...and apparently we all live together in a small flat..and it's very colourful..i remember red....and there's monica and a whole lot of frogs in a pond [the jelly] and it turns out that for the charity i was going to sell frogs in a pond....but if 'david' does his part then we needn't bother

i argued that we should still make some frogs since we can't rely on him to actually go through with it but the others said it was a sure thing...like all best friends would do in a movie....

and monica eats her frog in a pond

that's it

something else, all through out the night and this morning even in my dreams, i've had two songs stuck in my head

first, and most of the time, it was from the rocky horror picture show, it's the part where the guy....is it 'rob'?...jannet's fiance, is saying 'help me mommy' and then wen the two servants come busting in with their guns and sing about taking over and how his mission is a failure....

and then i had chicago in my head....that song about billy...'we, want, billly' and 'i don't care about expensive things, diamond rings, don't mean a thing, all i care about is love' 'all he cares about is love'

lol thats it folks

secret lesbians and punk outfits

ok i thought about it

it made me happy not because she had a job

which i realised is pretty stupid because...she most likely is in uni

and you can have one of those arty bags in uni

i noe i said it wasn't because she'd stopped wearing the punky clothes [while walkin past my house] but...

it is partially because of that

have you ever seen a mature person wearing a punky outfit?

you can be into punk sure, but i think that the wearing of a punk outfit is a bit...well you always think of a younger person wearing it...so my thinking is that she's grown up!

ah damn...i haven't figured it out yet

i will keep trying to find the reason behind my happy feeling

...i am quite sure it's not because i'm a secret lesbian

i'm sleepy

but my mum won't let me sleep

she'll scream my vietnamese name out really loud and shrill every 5-8 minutes to make sure i'm not sleeping again

and i don't know why

well i don't know exactly why

it could be something got to do with not being able to sleep later on at night if i slept now

or it could just be part of some hidden plan of hers to deprive me of my sleep...my happiness

lol

today i saw this girl walk past my house

she used to do it alot more often....or just a lot more wen i was looking...

she used to go to my skool

she was like 2years my senior

and she used to make her own clothes

she had a punk-ish style

and maybe she's who got me into that little phase of kinda punk-ish-stuff

but she is partially wat got me into making my own bags and tshirts

so usually she'd be walking past in her punky clothes....boots, skirts, stockings, red stuff, black stuff....

but today...she walked past in almost normal clothes

it was a big skivvy...the type with the huge collars that you fold down and are still huge...and she wore pants...i didn't look closly enough to notice wat colour etc...

but the bit that made it special for me was that she carried one of those proffessional arty cases

the one that you can carry on ur shoulder...

and it made me feel...something

happy i guess

not that she had left punkyness behind, although her outfit still seemed to stand out even though on anyone else it wouldn't have done poop

but that my..inspiration has got a life? that she hasn't given up art

and that she has a job, well i assumed that she had a job...but maybe she was just...looking for a job? with a folio of her stuff maybe...

anyway

i have to go dye my father's quickly fading hair

it was weird today

my parents came home from shopping at started to rapidly cook

dad fried some pork chops, mum cooked some other meat, while baking this kind of combination of meat and egg.....and dad bought two crabs

the house was cold since both doors were left open to let the cooking smells out

it was a cooking frenzy

alright gotta go

Russell Kennedy

i just had a...brain wave...wave through me?

anyway,

i have an idea!

for wenever it may come in handy

so leaving it here to prevent forgetfullness:


wen starting/promoting a business, like KandidFrank, grab handful of business cards and go down to the public library

and stick the cards into a whole lot of books as if you had read the book and had forgotten ur 'bookmark' in it

muahahaahaha...that way...people that read, intelligent! people, will come to know of ur business

this brainwave waved to me wen i found a business card for a certain solicitor named 'cin dy wong' who works in a legal group 'Russell Kennedy' which is a member of the 'Kennedy Strang Legal Group'....confusing...but the point is, this card burried in between pages 310 and311 of a Tom Holt omnibus has given me brain waves

yesterday i borrowed a book

and i started reading it to avoid hw, i only meant to read 1 chapter and...it's not that i couldn't put it down, it's just that wenever i finished doing something, picking up the book seemed like the right thing to do


so by 1:30 that morning i had finished it

it was High Fidelity by Nick Hornby

it's a very memorable name, before i'd read the book i would remember the name but never could recall what it was exactly that he had written

yeh it was a bit of a suprise that i liked it so much since a friend had really not enjoyed it and...i generally trust her opinion....hm, i have now just realised how trustable her opinion is to me ^____^ hi brittany! ....just read that over and it seems like i am saying that her opinion is not trustable...but i mean it in the straightest way, i really do think that her opinion is very trustable...i thought about alll the things i trust her taste in....if she says a certain band is good...then i will assume that it is good...not that i will actually put any effort into dwlding some of their stuff...but i will assume that it is good

wen you read a book that has been made into a movie people usually ask whether it was better than the other or not


and i'll say, the movie was good, and without it, i probably wouldn't have enjoyed the novel as much...afterall...i do love quotes!

so, the book was great, especially with all the extra parts that aren't in the movie and the way everything is ordered differently and how you get to really understand wat is going on....but without the movie the novel wouldn't be as great...but still great....and the movie, was good! because of john cusak, jack black...the bald guy playing Dick, and joan cusak...i always had her voice and face in mind wen her character was in play in the novel....

anny way....today i've realised how little time i have left to finish my folio

basically 2months

and i am so screwed

not quite wat i was thinking

lol yeh that did sound wrong; 'makes me want to have a preacher man's son'

i'm not ready for kids, obviously.

so i do not want to have the guys son...as in give birth to one....

it makes me want one....partner-wise

man i am so bored

i went to sleep at 4....and got up at 8

then watched 2 episodes of newley downloaded naruto...and it is almost 9pm

i kinda wish the day would go faster...but then i kinda don't cos then...skool is coming bak.

i have a sore throat

and thats the way it is

song that should be made into a movie:

son of a preacher man

from the first time i heard it....on pulp fiction? i've always loved this song

it's so smooth and has a bit of a 'church-singing-people' thing to it

but the best part [for me] is the words

..it makes me want to have a preacher man's son

planned to do hw today

and it is my excuse to not go with my mum to take my aunty from vietnam shopping

so sat down at my very clean desk [and since it was already clean, there was nothing to do to avoid the hw], opened my books, sat for a bit, sighed and turned away

i would love to go shopping, but i don't really like my aunty from vietnam

i don't noe if it's that i don't like her, or if i just feel nervous around her

so....i've been playing solitaire with the music playing for the last 20minutes

and now that i've mentioned my love for the song [isn't it funny that no matter who sings it, it always seems to sound the same?] i shall go bak to playing solitaire

i got 56seconds today!

i hope to get 55 [talking about solitaire]

wat we bought today

my first recharge card

it's funny, i thought that the recharge card would be...a card

and 1kg of gummy bears

LOL

you noe how i said i was gonna see dark knight...yesterday?

well i did [say it]

and it ends up that we were a little confused but didn't realise that we were confused until we'd gotten to knox and had been standing around for about 10 minutes [since we were early]

lucky we didn't go up to the ticket box...that would have been embarrassing

yes we are going to see dark knight on the day that it comes out

but that day was not yesterday

it is next week.

you noe was it ridiculous

blockbuster closing at 9pm

why, would a video store close at 9pm??!

it's like the cinemas stopping their movies at 9pm

absolutely stupid

even the pizza place [that we usually order pizza from then borrow dvds and come bak to pick it up] stays open later

stupid stupid stupid

so we ended up just ordering pizza and sitting in the chair and flipping though women's magazines and judging who was the prettiest and who was just not until the pizzas were ready then went home to watch run fat boy run....then my brother's kinda-girlfriend called so me and brian watched death at a funeral for about 45min then we went bak to run fat boy fun and then we watched '300'...then we slept

yeh...today i alphabeticallised all my dvds

and put all my tealights into a box

billy is pretty organised now

[yeh billy is the shelf's actual name, ikea has a thing for giving male names to their products, i saw two other names the other day but i've already forgotten..]

i'm so tired, it's weird

and my fingers hurt....especially wen i type....owwwwww.....

lol ok

oh yeh

and my passion for old movies is growing

i watched roman holiday on tv the other day

loved it

and a longer time ago 'gigi' was on tv...didn't get to see the end but i find that i really do wanna see the rest

and watched 'some like it hot' again...hilarious...the whole family watched it...well brian was there for bits of it and older brother wasn't home...but me, mum and dad watched it and we all liked it...ok gonna go...brian found Karsten today

karsten is a chair ^_____^

the day i found billy

yesterday i found billy

billy is tall, strong and quiet

not exactly dark...he's quite light

i found him in Ikea

anyway talk about that later....just wanna talk about some movies

day before yesterday i dwled and watched run fat boy run and it was so good!

brian loves it too

when it was out i hadn't started watching black books yet so didn't noe dylan moran but now i do and it's even better than it could have been before!

yup it's so good...that i want to buy it

and yesterday i suddenly felt myself in the jane austen mood so watched pride and prejudice, the one with wats her name...keira knightley in it

and i discovered that mr darcy is the same actor as the guy in death at a funeral!

but even so...he is so...i can't say hot....so dashing....mmmmmm

><>
ah gotta calm down

i watched ella enchanted day before yesterday too

it was alright

i'm reading oliver twist

i've never seen any of the movies that play quite often on tv

but i've gotten to this bit where i don't want to go any further because i just know wat is going to happen and i don't want it to happen

i feel that if i don't read on then oliver will stay in this happy state of living and the bad bad thing that i know will happen will not happen!

anyway, billy

have you figured it out yet?

billy is a shelf

202mm by something

i need to go to the reject shop, buy some boxes to put in billy and under my bed

i had a dream this morning..you noe wen you wake up then go bak to sleep and then you have a dream....yeh anyway

in my morning dream there was billy, waiters, me [waitress]...although i didn't notice wat any1 was wearing but it was just known that we were waitering....and an old..family friend...all sitting at a big table...although billy was agains the wall...and i felt guilty for using up all the billy space, not sharing it with any of the others...

we're seeing dark knight tonight!!! knox vmax ^____________^ excited...heath ledger...i feel bad for christian bale...he's the main character but it's become so much more about heath ledger....

yeh

i haven't done any hw...yesterday and today....i'm stuffed...got so much maths hw...and getting very behind in my studio art folio

and japanses -____-

...i need to start driving lessons

funny looking get ups

i had a bit of a dilemma before

i had too many plans coming in for the last week of the holidays and i really needed to do alot of hw and to do some...stuff...like driving lessons, cleaning my room [ALL of it...not just the top of my desk] and baking and making stuff that i keep delaying and shortening the pants of the house...

and the only way i noe i can get myself to do it...is to isolate myself so that i get so absolutley, desparetly bored that i just feel compelled to do my chores

but i didn't want to blow off all the people i had planned things to do

and then this morning, a solution came up

in a bit of a funny looking get-up

i got grounded

time to go do some cleaning....

my list of soundtracks and dvds have shortened!

and do you noe whyyy?

not because i have suddenly changed my mind and no longer want some of them

but because i have bought some!

today i got the soundtrack to 'the history boys' and 'kill bill' volumes 1&2 and a 2nd hand cd of 'get smart' it's some audiobits of the series....i've only listened to the first one and its looking good!

and i also got 'who framed roger rabbit' which turned out to be even better than i had remembered! and the 30 hit performances of elvis presley

...i'm waiting for this thing to install....'something' suite....i just wanted illustrator but my brothers gotten me a whole suite....and messenger can't be open to install it so yeh

heh...i just did a very silly thing

i went to take out the 'get smart' cd and automatically pressed the eject button of the top cd rom...which we use the most....and out came the cd i was using to install illustrator

silly me

i'm feeling so guilty about hw

i'm screwed for japanese...the...reading? outcome is...hm i don't noe wen it is....the first day back...and i still have to learn the damn forms...a whole lot of verbs...and the damn chapters that i've missed....

and i'm screwed for studio art if i don't get going!!!

screwed screwed screwed!!!....i'll just watch as my fantasy of getting into top arts sails further and further away....

ah this is depressing....
