je t'adore

so fourth day of casual and i'm already bored. on a positive note my pants are amazing today. i might take a photo one day. unfortunatelement (franglais :) ) i have lost my ATM card so i'm to all intents and purposes totally broke at the moment.
grrrr....
it is either:
  • at nadia's
  • at my local coles
  • at nicoles
  • on public transport somewhere
  • in my room.
please be in my room!
splendour in the grass looks INCREDIBLE this year and i cannot go. Like totally legendary. The Strokes, The Pixies, Florence and the Machine, Hot Chip...to name but a few.
NOT FAIR. NOT HAPPY JAN.


HAHAHAHAHAHA. "emo is over, you can all go home now"

also MGMT have released a new album. I haven't actually listened to it but hopefully it should be good. ish. maybe. I don't think I particularly care either way, but if its INCREDIBUBBLE you shall all hear my rantings



You. Me. My pants. Now

This is all

you play with the wolves but you sleep with the bones of the rabbit

oh myyyyyyy god what a weekend.
Saturday saw one of the biggest storms to hit Melbourne since forever, it was sunny in the morning but by 2pm the sky was grim and it wasn't long before huge winds and heavy rain, thunder and lightning (and hail in some places! as big as tennis balls!) had descended. Needless to say, I stayed inside; silently celebrating the lack of sun, watching Finding Nemo.
Sunday I spent with Nicole, at Pushover; a music festival in Abbotsford Convent in Melbourne each March. I definitely reccomend everyone goes; we got to meet the members of some of my favourite bands - Yves Klein Blue,

and Young Heretics. Just for the record; they're all very lovely and very attractive.
 It was a  great day made all the better by the weather. You guessed it, more rain.
 I love the rain!
I expect to see you all there next year!

inquisitive and thoughtful, she was the challenge he'd been waiting for

I love summer.
It's these days before the heat kicks in; when its ok to wear stupid flimsy dresses and shorts but also ok to wear jeans or skirts with pretty thick tights; when i can still go outside without fearing for my skin; when I fall in love with Melbourne again.
I don't think everyone really appreciates just how lucky Melburnians are to have the city we have. But I digress.
What I love about summer especially, is the communal nature of it. I mean think for a second; summer...barbecues, outdoor games, seeing friends, picnicking; these are all communal activities. And you know what else is a communal activity? Festivals!
Oh yes my lovelies, festival season is here again! And in Australia we sure have alot of choice.
Big Day Out is just around the corner( and  much to my chagrin, very sold out) with Muse headlining this year...I can hardly contain myself. There are 4500 tickets still to be allocated by ballot though; panique pas!
And BDO will be followed( and preceded ) by the Laneway Festival, Meredith, Good Vibrations, Pyramid, and countless others( including a particular favourite of mine, Pushover).
