V6.0

Since my last post, I have ended my relationship with the guy I was dating (7 months later). I knew it was for the best, and once you know it is not meant to be it is best to end it before it goes too far. Unfortunately, ours had passed that stage. You win some you lose some.

I had a friend from my former/Brisbane life pass away on Wednesday the 9th of September. It came as a surprise to so many of us, and he will be sorely missed. Many of the old regulars, as well as current followers of the Brisbane metal scene will remember a friendly, fun loving bloke known as Snailz. Robert 'Snailz' Martin was the one who shook your hand every time you entered the venue, had a beer and a joke with you, and didn't have a negative thing to say about anyone or anything. He was in the moshpit of every local metal band's set, front row centre. He was a great mate to all who knew him. You'll be sorely missed, Snailz.

On another - more positive note, I have added another year to my life, and also I have been bettering myself via losing weight as well as removing negativity. Since being back home I have lost over 15 kilograms, although I aim at losing a further 25. At least this time I am doing it the proper way, exercise and healthier eating habits.

Pop is still in hospital, although this one takes a fair bit too much to explain so I shall leave it for another time.

Much has happened over the past fortnight. We have been fighting with several real estates, I got an new [online] job as a web Mistress [no, not in the sexual context... In the female Web Master context].. I planned a holiday, oh and we have gotten evicted. Yes, you heard it right. We have 10 days to move and be done with the current house - oh did I tell you, I leave for my holidays tomorrow. Wicked!

Basically, we signed the lease with the animals on it and everything was fine. However, turns out the real estate had approved the lease without asking the owners of the property first. We had a friend of the owners come through the house as she's trying to sell it, he turns to the owner and tells her that we have the rats running around the house outside of their cages [which is complete bollocks!], so the owner kicked up a stink about wanting us out NOW. This was about 2 weeks after we moved in, in December.

We then receive a call saying we had a breach notice to remedy the lawns not being mowed [fairo, it's a breach of the lease].. We mow the lawns and within the period of the first breach we receive another.. This one for apparently not having done the lawns and the house being untidy [by untidy we have boxes of packed stuff all over the house as we know we have to move again so there isn't much point in unpacking, amirite?].. We complain, they ignore, and so it goes on. THEN, Lyns calls up to see if our property manager [Brad the wanktard] has agreed to our terms of leaving, i.e. if they want us out before the lease is out they must pay for our moving etc etc..], Brad then tells us that there has been another complaint. ANOTHER! Turns out another real estate has said that they tried to come around to look at the place on Saturday [6 days ago] and apparently could not get in. Now, last Saturday we were ALL home, yes, all 3 of us. Noone came, at all that day. AT ALL! Yet there is breach numero tres, and bang eviction. So basically Katey and Lyns must find a new place and move the house in 10 days whilst I am 2 states away on holidays. If not, our stuff goes to a family friends, they sleep on his mums floor and I move back in with nan. Oh what joy this has turned to be!

Oh, mum doesn't know yet.. Let's keep it a secret, hey? Good.

On the upside, looking forward to Cassie's 21st as well as Kell's whilst I am down in Melbourne. OH and I get to see Sindy and get my new cyber lox! Wicked! [And of course spend time with mama and brother and such ^_^]

Anywho, I need to have my belongings packed and ready for tomorrow and for house moving so I should get back to it.

Exam 4 out of 4 completed today, and I am feeling pretty good about it! That's uni done for the year, now I can focus on work and moving and such. Woot.

What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.

Romantic movies are [secretly] certainly one of my favourites when it comes to movie genres. I think I associate more relationships I’ve had with movies rather than songs. Like, you can associate it with words as well as pictures, rather than just the words [with music]. This seems to make the movie leave a mental image that’s stronger than a song, I guess [Don't get me wrong, I still associate some people etc with songs]. Movies set the stage. What ends up playing out is just about anyone’s guess, but personally I would rather take a night on the couch with a good movie than one spent by the radio when it comes to love.

Highlight for this evening would definitely be seeing Mike O'Malley serenade Heather Locklear on the footpath, even up the fire escape in an attempt to win her heart. Any guy that takes me to a concert [or even a gaming convention] for our first date would definitely be in the runnings of having my heart, but that's just me.

I sometimes wonder, how these [romance] movies become so popular? The story's are more than often illogical and very, very unrealistic. I mean, daughter pretends to be 'the dream guy' to mother on the internet, then tells mother. Yet the daughter is still alive?! This being said however, I must admit, there is a certain appeal to them. Having even the smallest ounce of hope in thinking that these scenarios could infact happen to us one day, somehow manages to connect us with the film. Clever. I am optimistic that one day I get the geeky guy [in this case Ben Feldman] in the film. Or am I just not Hilary Duff enough? I bet she doesn't get his comic jokes.
