I went to a food and wine festival with the husband
He bought me a heart shaped lollipop to enjoy my ire
He also bought me ice cream (thus I forgive him)
I watched my salsa group perform
I really enjoyed not performing this year, but I think I will perform next year
I have lots of baking to do tomorrow
First time at MY church in about three weeks because of work! Pretty excited
I watched...

Today
I took today off work.
I called them yesterday.
I have three days in a row off. I don’t think this has happened in a while. I’ve no origami due, no food due, no cleaning, no uni and and no work.
It’s kind of nice.
I’m huddled on the couch for my first day alone in the house in a very, very long time (NoRuffles is fishing with Dad).
I just ordered my groceries...

Jetstar
Trying to book flights with Jetstar for Steph. Shut up. Sure she might get stranded here for a month, but at least she has somewhere to stay.
Anyway. Even the flippin’ website is faulty and it’s not letting me book flights :-(
If I fixed the problem
Why am I sobbing wreck?
Going distance fixes everything. But I had my heart set on being on campus and the scheduling looked right and it was all going to work. But no… it’s not.
I have a day off to study and listen to lectures and catch up and that’s a good thing. I need to just focus on that. And stop crying. And hyperventilating so I can go to my doctor and pretend...
SCREW being an "online" or "on campus" student
I’m going back to DISTANCE where I don’t have to freaking worry about this utter effing bullshit where LECTURERS CAN’T EVEN SCHEDULE ENOUGH TUTORIALS TO ALLOW FOR ALL ENROLLED STUDENTS TO SIGN UP.
SCREW THIS SHIT.
UGH
I’m shaking and I feel like I’m going to cry.
This is all really too stressful!
Tutorial sign ups started today but apparently I can’t sign up for most of my classes as all primary classes are full, one of my tutorials isn’t coming up AND the tutorial times for sign are REALLY DIFFERENT to my timetable options in another program. Which stresses me because work said...

Just got off Skype with Sarah
I will not cry….
I love talking to you guys on skype. Makes all this feel less like an unhealthy habit and more like hanging out with friends.

Facebook.
Friends is a real word with a real meaning.
I have 90 ‘friends’ on facebook. That’s enough. I don’t even have that many in real life.
But I’m starting a Christian Dance Group so I’m about to change my policy. Sigh.
I hate people knowing my business.
Food
I wish you guys were here to see and smell the heirloom tart (tomato and capsicum tart) I made today, and the roast vegetable fritatta… not to mention the caramel cupcakes with vanilla frosting…
I’m taking it all down to the Red Door Cafe to be sold tomorrow. And if anyone lived nearby I’d tell them to go check it out. Particularly the tart. That tart is amazing. Ask...

Awkward Questions
I really do sincerely wish from the very core of my being that people would refrain from asking me a) if I’m pregnant /yet/ or b) when we’re going to have children. Or at least, if people could ask less, that would be really SUPER awesome.
And when I say ‘we aren’t planning for it’ or ‘no babies’, could you not look at me like I suddenly grew three extra...

I woke up from a bad dream and now I am a scared little girl trapped in a horrifying reality where I’m old and can’t cry and I can’t tell anyone about the monsters in the corners of every room. Why don’t you see them, like I do? But I know if I whisper the words, even to myself, they’ll take me away like they did before.
But it won’t last, because it never...

An Outpouring: Spiritual Masturbation →
There’s a title right there, huh?
I first encountered the terminology in Shane Claiborne’s book “The Irresistible Revolution.” At the time, I did not understand what or who he was really talking about when he said it, because at the time I had not yet been around the people who practiced it. It…
So… I like the point of this post. But I don’t think it’s all truth...

Anonymous asked: So.... what happened to your candy vlogs? I liked them...
I came back from church tonight and I feel recharged. I feel energised again to share my testimony. I love hearing such honest truthful messages that are heavily based in the word… with amazing honest delivery. I really enjoyed it.
I think I’ve found a church to go to at night when I can’t go to morning church because of work. Or when I’m utterly exhausted and need a...

I went shopping for clothes and shoes for prac.
I didn’t pay full price for anything.
I now have clothes that make me look like a responsible grown up who is confident and knows things.
I suck at ‘smart casual’. It’s a stupid phrase. It’s either businesswear or it’s casual wear, there is no middle ground. In my head.
Oh gosh, now I’m freaking out...
