I've decided to post about the absolutely FREAKING AWESOME vintage bicycle my sister bought. It was $20 at a market and in pretty awesome condition.. Anyway, I loved riding it around, makes me really want one!

well, my internet downloads are renewed, FINALLY! and now I feel like writing about the iceskating trip (after  reading xxshamay retarded post.) Well, I was too busy having fun to snap any decent shots!
Well first, we got onto the bus, then followed by a train, then another bus. After that we had to travel 1.5km to the rink, which was practically construction zones! When we got there, we waited for around forty minutes for the next skating session.  The others all were really pussy to actually skate freely, they all got used to the ice.
After that Angelika and I were trying to round up people to play tag but they were all too scared, this is basically what happened the whole session! haha it was still pretty fun. Other people all grouped up together and I just skated around by myself afew times being a loner and very bored. (-.-)
By the time it was over our feet were dead! Shamay scabbed Yvonne's noodles and then we went to the bus stop. Yvonne and me thought it was the wrong stop because the there was a community centre and it wasn't there before.


^^ at the bus stop before the mad dash. Zak looks really evil in the background and Eunice looks like shes got a wired ciggy.

So me and Yvonne decided we'd just walk further down the road because we knew it wasnt the same stop. Everyone VERY SLOWLY followed, but suddenly, the bus stared coming from behind. We could see the stop so we all starting running like mad. I still had the timetable open and had to scrunch it up so it was all fucked. We were all peeing ourselves but we actually got on the bus! we made it, but the people all looked at us like, what the fuck---
Yes, the bus took us to a shopping centre and all got some food. Me and Shamay got our BARGAINS at Chicken Treat whilst the others ordered and McDonalds next door. We got out food and met up with them at McDonalds. After eating we got onto the bus again and got to the train station. The train took us back to a different train station. THEN we had to take the bus home.
When we were on the bus, and we were just about to pass the local shopping centre, Eunice and Nicole spontainously wanted to go to the shopping centre. I tagged along and bought a drink and red rock deli chips. Shamay and Yvonne stayed on the bus and went home.
I went back to the bus stop and went home and played Guitar Hero.

Pretty fun day :D

yep- you guessed it! shoes with a twist. Check out my shoodles I made (with the help of the sister) today:

( more under the cut )

I can't believe I'm only three days into school holidays, it feels like weeks. Other than the occasional shopping trip with friends, I have been completely bored, which leads to this gloom I've been feeling.

But I've been somewhat ecstatic today, which is unusual actually. Trivial as it seems-  Yes, it's the small things in life, the pure pleasure of it all. Not only did I wake up and make the perfect grilled cheese sandwiche, I actually beat my highscore on Guitar Hero for quite possibly the most frustrating song I have ever come across. It's called ReEducation Through Labour by Rise Against, and, it is quite possibly the best song on Guitar Hero World Tour. play on level medium though. I cna play hard but I'm too lazy putting in the effort that early in the morning. If you want to try beat my highscore, I got 1 27,089.
Hopefully I am getting wireless soon so I can battle someone instead of playing by myself. Yes I am a loser, but what can I do about it? Guitar Hero is completely addictive.

And aside from that, I received the most unexpected package at around 1.30pm. It almost made me squeal with happiness that my order of certain books has arrived from victoria! I have something to do now finally! Reading is certainly a passion of mine, and I can't seem to find any of the following books anywhere so decided I'd order them.


 from left to right:LOVE ON LIFTS by Rachel Hawthorne, AUDREY, WAIT!by Robin Benway,Short Dragonball comic , PRINCESS AI: Prism Of MIDNIGHT DAWN by Dj Milky and Courtney Love, SUITE DREAMS by Rachel Hawthorne, SET IN STONE by Linda Newbery, ICING ON THE LAKE by Catherine Clark, and top: THRILL RIDE by Rachel Hawthorne

As you can see by their covers and titles, moste of them are completely guilty pleasures: chicklit. I am prepping up from winter, with much excitement, and these cute novels will hopefully help with the anticipation! (I could go on all day about loving winter but lets move on shall we?) Anyway, Princess Ai is a manga, one of my favourites in the series, I love Nirvana and manga so this series was perfect for me.  Set in Stone is a period piece, which I'm excited to read.

I'm starting off with Love on Lifts. I borrowed this novel from a friend when it first came out in Australia, but it seemed to be discontinued in the bookstores. I enjoyed it alot and wanted my own copy but never seemed to be able to find it until I went online. Reading it once again brings back hilarious memories!


how can Kate not see Joe?!

Have I ever mentioned that Rachel Hawthorne is absolutely, purely genius! She's my all time favourite chicklit author, tied with Meg Cabot of course. Miss Hawthorne is my idol, and I couldn't be a bigger fan. She's hooked me in with all these winter novels! n_n
I honestly cannot wait to read Suite Dreams, I already know I will love it. I also own a copy of Caribbean Cruising, loved it! (I'm disappointed I have to order them though, I cant find any more of her novels out there. )

I also have afew on order that aren't release yet, including some more winter chicklit and How To Be Bad, which I am very excited about!

Anyway, for people who don't like reading, you are truly missing out on something. As a teenager myself, I  know just about everyone in my grade (at highschool) hates reading. These days teenagers have more problems to worry about, and the power of a good story can get you through almost anything. I don't think people really understand that anymore, and very few people can really write something that can make you cringe, laugh and cry at the same time like Miss Hawthorne, or Meg Cabot can. You could call me stupid for liking something as "shallow" as chicklit, but honestly, if you just wanted something light for a laugh, or to make you feel abit happier, would you be reading Farenheit 451? (I'm not denying the genius of Ray. Despite its brilliance but it didn't make me feel happier)

There are some amazing books out there, you just have to open your eyes.

I am really bored, for one, and if you're bored, I hope you waste some time reading this, but I've decided to tell you guys all about me!



if you'd like to know abit about me,

beginning to sketch this shot from the Instyle photoshoot:




will update soon with the finished product!

living in Perth has its restrictions for shopping, but with my newly accquired paypal and card I feel like going on an online shopping frenzy. One simple problem? I have no idea what to do! I've bought over $180 worth of books from BIGWentertainment 

( it's an Australian sort of Walmart, i recommend it because there;s just about every single book/cd etc. you can think of, and its by one department which i think is a td safer than amazon.)

I love looking around for clothes, accesories, etc and came across madeit, an Australian version of Etsy. All the stuff there is gorgeous!



Other than that I'm completely noob at this. For one, living in Australia can be a hassle as postage can cost about double what you want to buy! AND I'm also a student on a budget. Ebay really is overrated in my opinion because its too hard to find good bargains that you can't just go across the street and get, and clothing-wise, you dont know what the real condition is.
I am really envious of americans on this matter because they have awesome places like Forver 21 and Heritage 1981, which basically sums up my style. It also is all affordable, *mutters in the corner*..
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas? Internatial shipping, cheap shipping prefered. I feel sick of the generic clothes I see in target and valleygirl, they make me want to puke :P

ok-this is a long story. start from the beginning? :D
I guess I'm supposed to try and make this "short". Free Wii: no game. Guitar Hero World Tour=addiction.

I kind of suck, but to be fair I've only had it for around a week. My favourite songs are probably Obstacle 21, Eye of the Tiger, Beat it, One way Or Another, About a Girl and Misery Business. I play guitar, bass and vocals. Don't mention the drums.....epic fail lol.
Did everyone just fail to mention how hard drums really are? the foot pedal is possibly the shittest invention ever. Its so slow reaction and you basically have to foot-stab it to get it to sense..almost the same as the symbols. I think they should make it more sensitive.

Does anyone else know how to play guitar hero/has it? Any tips for an eager learner? I'm currently trying to master medium level but I get a feeling the guitars are designed for mainly boys. The star power button on world tour and the fret buttons are pretty far away from each other for my small hands, I think they were created for lanky and long appendaged geek boys *giggles* I suppose I should ask one..if only I knew any. *cough* ANYWAY, back to guitar hero... does anyone have any tricks for pressing the buttons so far apart? I've resulted to using my pinky so I have a seperate finger for each button but my pinky is so weak and after a while I loose focus and end up just using whatever pinky. My sister adcised me to just use the normal three and move them around for whenever neccersary but I think my reaction might be alittle too slow for that. What do you think is the best tip?

Reading this over makes me realise how god damn sad my life is. Guitar Hero has manifested my whole being for over a whole week. Just being on the computer again reminds me of how many things I actually have to do (including finishing my novel, and a Twilight one-shot I started just a month ago). I feel like I'm having an epiphany..... school doesn't feel like it has a meaning anymore....to my its pointless hours of learning things I'll never need. Its like nothing really means anything anymore, just time fillers until the day I finally die. It's just all a routine.

Talking about time fillers- anyone else watch gossip girl? my internet really dislikes me so I've only been able to catch up on 2.1 to 2.13 with a cd my friend gave me. I don't know why I like this trashy crap, all the spoilt kiddies behaviours are what repulses me....it's just so addictive. I only really like Jenny and Nate at the moment, OH AND WHO CAN FORGET CHUCK BASS?! does he really find a soul? Anyway, Jenny's fashion story line was really awesome, the other crap how shes becoming some skank pisses me off. Whats with all the panda eyeliner? yeeshhhhhh and then she could'v got Nate! for some reason I find Nate alot more attractive than Dan this season. He finally grew a pair, I thought him and Jenny would've been an awesome couple but -sigh- as usual, the storyline just screws up.
The only thing I find consistantly interesting is Chuck. Ed Westwick is gorgeous and he really creates this believable enigma for Chuck Bass.

Well anyway, adios amigos!

I honestly can't believe I've been neglecting this blog for so long. It has been over a month since my last entry D:
I suppose I've fallen out of graphic designing(yet again), but these things seem to happen all the time. Just give me a month or so and I'll be back. Holidays are my main modivation since its like a burial death of boredom.
Well, my friend michelle -alamodeplease - has inspired me with her wise words to post a random entry about probably just nothing.

Is anyone else concerningly excited for winter? The lovely nights, the jeans all day, coats, scarves and hot chocolate?
I myself am an avid winter enthusiast, just the thought of wearing a jumper afew days ago on a cool summer morning made me squeal inside with joy. Summer makes me feel undeniably.....ickk. What attracts people to summer, honestly? Is it the long, sticky, sleepless nights? Or the mosquito swelling, ghastly days? Thats exactly what its like all Summer and a good portion of autumn+spring in Perth, I'm oh so ready to give it all up for a good nights sleep.
Everyone seems to be in zombie or idiot mode....the heat is affecting us! I know it is, but it won't stop me from shaking my fist in joy, knowing winter will one day come.
I hate the fact that my birthday is in autumn. It's so,warm? This year I was planning on going fully childish, with a "fairy & cowboy" party. I'm completely unorganised, and what kind of games do highschool students play at parties? I can honestly never understand those "teenage" parties you see in movies. Seriously, what is fun about standing around, or walking, and drinking something that could potentially kill you? It frustrates me so much that people can do this for a living.

I could go on...but I should probably go to sleep and get some more ideas on my oneshot..

yours faithfully, angiesheep.

Well, I used to make myspace DIVS layouts, a long long time ago, and I've been digging up my archives and decided to put them up for download!



( links under the cut )

I LOVE SALES!

And finding bargains, what can make you more happier? Especially heavily discounted clothes, (DESIGNER BRANDDDS!)

So I've decided to show you what I could come up with when I was given $50 one day to find the cheapest things, maybe an outfit?

Tips, tricks, and fun musings included.

( (see what I've found) )

been busy these days, but 3 wallpapers.

ok so I'm in this phase with experimenting, so these are all really abstract colour wise but i still love them, each one has a different song I really love from the soundtrack( i like em all but they suited the picture the best) XD

my rating: 6/10 stars
issue: December '08
price: $5.50AUS
more at: girlfriend
demographic: teenage girls 
layout: bubbly,bright,girly.
content: Standard A4, glossy paper. Thin! Too many ads,
additional info: Girlfriend is an OK magazine. It's got the usual, horoscope, advice, fashion, gossip etc. But I have quite afew nitpicks with this particular mag. If you're really into girly teen mags, this is for you, but there are quite alot of things I thought I should point out with this magazine.
a) It's OBVIOUS the targetted demographic would be teenage girls, so why would they put clothes that are way over the average budget? The clothing items they use in the fashion sections are ridiculous to say the least.
b) The ad's! half the magazine is comprised of them! Its rather annoying to turn 3 pages straight of ads.
c) I like the colours of the layout, each page looks different and keeps it interesting.
d) articles seemed too trivial, if all you really want to read about is gossip, fashion, celebs, then thats alright, but I enjoy things with substance.

my rating: 7/10 stars
issue: December '08
price: $8.95/nz- $9.95
more at: empireonline
demographic: movie buffs, mostly male.
layout: neat, clean, very well designed.
content: Well, the cheapo in me would've expected more as it is quite thin for its price, but there are hardly any ads which is great. Standard A4 size pages with glossy paper.
additional info: Well, I initally only bought the magazine for the Twilight Poster it had, and didn't think I'd really be that interested. I found myself utterly surprised by the cool info on James Bonds and etc. The articles capture you, give you alot of info, and best of all, there weren't many ads! I couldn't believe I had actually sat through a whole pagazine about movies and enjoyed it. The content and neat layout made it easy to read, but it can get boring because of this. The price was quite a BIG dig out of my pocket (seeing as I only get an allowance of $25 a week) but for anyone that can spare an extra ten, this mag is worth it!
