Grilled Chicken and Orange Rice

btw,

since we've got this weekend and the next off [wedding-wise] my mum offered to make something yum

and i suggested grilled chicken and orange rice, which i love

and then i remembered what happened last time mum made it,

well Heath Ledger died

i remember eating grilled chicken and orange rice and waiting for the news special to come on tv. at first i watched from the kitchen and then once i'd finished eating i moved into the lounge where my mum sat sighing, '...so young'

so now

i will always remember that the day my mum made Grilled Chicken and Orange Rice was the day that Heath Ledger died

...or was the day i first heard the news that Heath Ledger had died.

in other news,

my parents are getting supersticious about our new house

since we've bought it, a tree in the templeton house fell and broke the fence, the little water fountain we have in our lounge room broke and....something else.....

but they're worried that it's a bad sign

and now i'm getting a bit jittery

i'm kinda supersticious

enough to be slightly worried.

Lists

i have been out two days in a row, wearing clothes with a tag still attached to it.

yup

embarrassing

especially when they have all those red stickers on them showing how much it's been reduced.

dodgy.

this holidays has actually been pretty good so far

tho it's only half way through

on the first weekend i worked and my parents bought a house on the saturday.

monday we visited my grandma

tuesday i went to see display homes with my parents and brian

wednesday the whole family went over to our templeton house to do some gardening

thursday i worked with my dad and brian to make my shelf for studio art

friday i went to bridge road in richmond with melody and julia for shopping

yesterday we went to see some more display homes and i got a hair cut

today i went to see my grandma again

so i reckon i've been pretty productive

but then i also want to be mindlessly bored

i miss being mindlessly bored with nothing to do

there always seems to be something that i need to do

and i have lists and lists of those things that i need to do

i'm getting sick of those lists

but they don't seem to be able to get organised in my brain, they need to be on paper in thick red/black texta

and here's another list for ya...

my plans for this week:

Monday - going to school to work on my studio folio and then to the glen to buy some materials for studio (namely; nice wrapping paper and wallpaper paste)
Tuesday - going to a library (either Glenwaverley or Nunawading) to study for a japanese speaking outcome with my role play partner (elly)
Wednesday - going shopping with brittany, emma and possibly dianne. will not be purposely looking for clothes (since i've already bought a decent amount on friday)
Thursday - possibly going to school in the morning (moving my final pieces to school before school starts) then the twins' (including Hayley) birthday party
Friday - nothing solid yet, but i think my dad is planning to bring me back to the asian doctor about my skin...other wise i mite go to school again
The weekend before school starts - nothing planned...tho probably hoping it to stay that way

proud accomplishment: have fought the urge to buy dvds for....1 and a half weeks.

ahh i need to work againnnn

i need money

i need a proper job

proper job....too much fuss!

wedding money isn't frequent enough...not reliable

plus it's kinda degrading to be working for your parents

hm

i've had this ridiculous song in my head for the last few days

smack that

akon

shame.

ever moved your tongue next to your teeth, but not quite touching them, and felt a strangely cold...space?

i felt it....but now i don't

hm

ok i'm bored.

grah

stupid wallpaper

why is it so expensive?!

bum

stupid bum poo

Art

is the ability to see everything when it seems like there is nothing

...otherwise you are just brushed off as being unknowing

[amazing the things that happen in my mind when sitting in the dark by myself]

Dear Aunty

Have a nice flight

enjoy these cookies i made.

Don't bother staying in contact

All About $$

i hate having money

i hate that there are people that don't have money

and i hate that people care

i hate money

hmm yes it's been more than two weeks since that visit to the asian herbalist

at first my skin went drastically well [to me] then it stayed steady at good...then i think it's slowly getting a bit red again

but...mite be because i missed drinking the grain stuff 2days in a row and the body wash has run out [in the first week] and the face cream is running out

but i reckon he was pretty decent

he said to come back...but i guess we're not

i made yoyos today

tho i had forgotten that aunty ratna was gonna be coming and dropping the kids here while she gets a facial and other pampering things

so i let jaszelle 'help' a bit...tho wen it came to rolling the dough into balls i kinda just made her play with a lump of it....

then mum took jaszelle out [thankgod] and we were left with zach who wasn't as bad since we could say things that he didn't understand

but then i left two trays in the oven too long and they got a bit over-browned...but in the end it just looks like chocolate yoyos...and they taste about the same

now, zach has been put to sleep and jaszelle hass gone out with mum and aunty for coffee

it's quite...no one wants to wake zach

my mum has always loved french music

i've been slowly [PANIC! phone just rang and i ran to shut it up] getting into it, maybe cos she kept playing it in the mornings while i slept...

anyway...love most of it now...tho i haven't listened to like...french pop or rock or anything...just kinda cafe music

it's really good

the most recent song...that i love the mostest...is from 'Putumayo Presents - Paris'

and it's the first track: 'Au Cafe de La Paix' - Thomas Fersen

it's so happy and the guys has a really throaty voice [which i LOVE]

no i don't know how to say the title...actually the guy just said it...but i've already forgotten...

and i don't noe anything that he's saying...for all i know he could be singing about sex, drugs and flare pants

but, [brittany calling!]....

....

hm....with the pictures of the card i made from my last blog [from a long time ago], wat i meant to say about it before all my words were cut off...was that it was bad bad bad

but thanks for the nice words ^____^

went to an asian doctor on sunday [father's day] about my skin

and he said that my skin will be atleast 50% better in two weeks

so now my dad has come into habit of grabbing my face between his two hands and inspecting my skin every morning

and then asking later on in the evening if i feel any better

hm

skool time
