Sometimes its subtle, sometimes its obvious. So obvious that you're either beaming, or wanting to crawl into a hole and die.
Sometimes you'll go with the flow, but most times you'll resist it like a kid resisting eating brussel sprouts.
Change is good, change is bad, change is constant.
And with that, here's news. I'm changing this LJ for a new start. Unsure if I'll be deleting this account, and creating a new one, or just changing the username stuffs. It won't be happening immediately, but it'll be done by the end of May, when most of my assignments are done.
Ciao ciao!

I can't even voice how proud I am of this moment. It's epic.
I've not actually caught one of President Obama's speeches before, and it's blown me away how eloquent and amazing his oratory skills are. He makes you want to stop and just listen. That's powerful.
I have to say, that his speech is fantastic. He's recognizing mistakes made, not placing blame, he's not promising the world, he's realistic, there's no miracle remedy to rectify the financial crisis, or any other political issues - and he knows it. He knows there's a long challenging road ahead of trying to bring America back to its highest standing.
YES. WE. CAN.
My god. He is seriously ...sdkjfhasdkjh He's a PHENOMENAL speaker!
Honest. That's what I'd call his speech. It's not glossy, and overworked. It's just about the most honest, humbling and powerful speech I've heard from a Leader.
That's right. President Barack Obama is a LEADER.
YES. *HE*. CAN!
- Music:CBS coverage of the Innauguration
The episode is 'The Stackhouse Philibuster' and I think that it probably ranks as one of my favourite episodes from the series.
They set up the episode sort of like a timeline, flashbacks througout that particular day, a recount of a series of events, etc.
It's just the most touching, moving, set of scenes. Especially when the White House staff come together when they figure out the real story behind it all, and just.....*sigh*.
♥
Love love love.
ALSO (on the next ep now), re-watching season 2, makes me realise how much I adored the character of Ainsley Hayes. She was spunky, smart, witty and incredibly funny. Lol.
Ainsley: "I wanna be in the other group."
Sam: "Why"
Ainsley: "They have the Kung Pao Chicken"
LOL that's another reason why I adored her, she was always thinking about food!! hehe!

But, haha, My Donut bun (donut without the hole), has Cheesecake filling, and tastes wickedly good. But, LOL-WHUT?? CHEESECAKE FILLED DONUT??

When Krispy Kreme finally makes it to Adelaide...I'm going to have a hard time going between Gourmet Glaze and Krispy Kreme...

However, I came across, this and was just completely grossed out, to the point I HAD to share it with you all, lol.
Was perusing World Of Wonder website, and came across this link www.labyrinth.net.au/~obsidian/clothpads/
REUSABLE MENSTRUAL PADS????????
That's kinda.....GROSS.
They posted a pic of one (unused) on the website, and without reading the article, I was like, aww thats a cute slipper print (had an owl on it), until the poster said in the caption, 'I feel sorry for this Owl'..I was like ...OH EW EW EW!!
So there you go. Apparently there's a plethora of other nature friendly options for good ol Aunt Flo.
I'm sorry, but there's a reason that there are DISPOSABLE options for this time, and popular ones at that ... I think it's self explanatory as to why, LOL!

I was craving bagels of the blueberry assortment, and bought some (five...it was in a pack!!). They smelt DELICIOUS, and all blueberry like. Biggest let down EVAR. Bit into it and waited for the burst of flavour....NOTHING. Even the subtlest flavour tasted like...dough. DAMNN!!!
Waste not, want not. Gotta eat them...been slathering them with hazelnut spread to compensate (NUTELLA FTW!!)...

PRINNIE WANTS THE NEW 3G IPHONE SOOO BAD RIGHT NOW
*pout*
I want it...but my current contract isn't up till February 09. Although, my phone IS starting to die...Ahk.
I need more info though. Like, the price from the US (apparently its max is 199USD...which in Aus$'s is not that much more) is FANFUCKINTASTIC!!! But then, the actual cost of using the phone...I need plan details etc. Cept, these phones are gonna sell like hotcakes, and so I'll have to register...but I don't want to pay a deposit to find that its all shiteous....BAH.
I still want one though, lol. SO SO SO BAD!!!!!! I'm kinda really glad I've kept putting off buying a new Ipod now, hehee.
Btw, I am in LOVE with Julien Dore (he won Nouvelle Star, season,.....5 I believe). Been listening to his songs alllll day. I WANNA BE IN FRANCE RIGHT NOW!!! ANYWHERE FRENCH SPEAKING EVEN!!!
Man I wish I continued with french in Uni. Hmmms...I wonder if I could re-teach it to myself....hmmm
- Music:Julien Dore - Les Limites
PSSHAAAWWWW
OMG ALL THE LISA E PICS FROM MONTE CARLO, LIKE ALGLASKDJFHLASKJDFHKJHASFKJLASHD
And Lisa/Giammario is FTW. I am soooo behind that relationship. I really hope it works out for them!! They're adorable together, and so photogenic as a 'couple', unlike Bun!man and her.
I saw the vid where she was asked that incredibly awkward personal queestion from the lady in the crowd, like....ok.....I would have been thinking the same thing (are they still together - had i not seen the pics of her and Giammario), but like....HOW FREAKIN RUDE AND AWKWARD!!!!!!! LIKE....DKJH
And her FACE when she asked, it was liek...wow...AWWKKKWARD!! But she handled it so well! *is proud*. I love how she answered the question.
Oh, and her attempts at speaking French! WIN!! I hate to say it, but from what I've heard and seen, the American accent teamed with speaking French, and like, saying the words how the French would say it....the accent is atrocious (this being taken from my own experiences...my accent isn't the best, but it's well...not horrible lol), but she did such a great job at getting the accent, and the tones - soo cute, hehehe!!
Ok, that is all, hahaha!!

BIIIG Weekend!! Christian's bday party was Saturday night, and it was hysterical. I scored a couple of free shots from the emo-esque looking bartender. Actually...I think he was more punk-rock...either way...he wasn't pretty boy lookin. LOL. FREE SHOTS WOO!!!

Either way, it's the ep where Chase finds out his Dad died, and he treated...tried to treat that lady. But her brother donated his dodgy liver, etc etc....
ANYWAYS. I just realised, the actress that played the dying lady, also played MALLORY MCGARRY on the WEST WING!!!
That is all.
So, I had my casting today ... my polaroid shot is horrible...least I anticipate it will be, because I started to laugh as Anthony clicked the button (he couldn't figure out how to get it to work, and i kept giggling) ...
Anyways, I'm in for the show next weekend :D Im sooo pumped!! Cept.....they're dying my hair...my hair is naturally black...like....BLACK BLACK. And I've never dyed it before, so I'm a bit antsy about that.
I felt like such an amature filling out the form, because like...well...they asked for size, and i range from a 6-8 depending on style and make, the same with shoes....im usually an 8, but can be an 8.5 or 9, depending on the shoe.....i wrote 6/8 and 8/9 for each thing...like a 'tard. Sighhh, oh well, i have to go back for a prep anyways, so if they're lost we'll figure it out then. Blah.
Also had some bday pics developed from the dig cam.....i think i have to go back and edit them properly....lots of faces were cut out, and it was weird. Like....i set it to print 4x6, thinking oh it'll automatically resize it to fit....WRONG. Blah. oh wells.
As most of you read....I watched Stargate: The Lost Ark last nihgt, ...sooooo good, and I can't wait for Continuum...I want it Nooowww!!
Also watched Chocolat today. One of my faves...the fact that Johnny Depp is extra scrumptious in the movie is a benefit. But it's such a great story, and I ADORE Lena Olin and Dame Judi Dench!! The book is also very good, but then, the books usually are better than the movie....but i'm not sure with this, they're pretty even on the 'GREAT' factor.
Right, Philly Cream Cheese and Salmon on a Bagel is bellowing out to my stomach.
Laterrrrr!!

There is a story behind this, and I thought I had more time to tell it... Alas, I have 10 minutes to get ready for work. :S
The Space/Time continuum loses all meaning while watching The West Wing.
I'll be uploading my Birthday photos, and some other things after workies...when I actually HAVE time and don't have to rush off :S
OOh - I FINALLY GOT MY PRESCRIPTION GLASSES!!! I only waited like...A MONTH.
They're so cute, I'm quite in love with them. Although, after wearing contact lenses for so long, It's taking me a little bit to get used to wearing glasses again.
Hope alls well!! - PS - WELCOME BACK TO LJ TORZ!!!

OUI!!
Seriously. There should be a proffession for procrastination. I would be among the elite in the field. I would be making millions. SQUILLIONS even.
If there were a Uni degree for it, I'd be among the top 5%.
Bah.
