3 days.

Countdown. Three days!

Sorry I keep bothering everybody on MSN / Facebook and now here with my day by day countdown. But, y'know. It's a big event.

--

Uni starts next Monday. I really should look over my German text book and catch up. A month of speaking little German is going to catch up with me..I can sense it.

--

Been writing too much with my left hand. Writing right handed feels strange now.

Can't print nicely left handed yet though, only running write. ...But then, I can't print nicely right handed either. So I suppose it makes sense.

Had a weird alien abduction dream the two nights ago. Read an alien abduction story in Take5 last night (Yeah, I know, Take5. Trashiest of the Trash mags). Had a weird E.T movie scary flash back tonight while closing the back gate all alone in the dark. .......Never let me watch that movie again. Ever. Ever ever ever. It's been 5 years since I saw it last and evidently it hasn't worn off...

..I must be stressed.

Love My Way

So I've been working.

And riding in trains.

And stalking.

And missing people.

And not blogging.

And eating weird muffin bars that have a taste that's strangely reminiscent of "Space Food Sticks" that I used to consume way back in Primary School.

It's almost my birthday. I'm going to be 20 on Friday. Let's put some things into perspective here:

Today is Saturday. This is the last Saturday I will spend as a teenager. Tomorrow is the last Sunday I will spend as a teenager, and so on and so forth until Thursday. Which will be my last day as a teenager. .....To put it shortly, this is my last week as a teenager.

Being 20 will mean that I have spent two decades alive. Which then means that I will be starting life in my THIRD decade. Which is just all flavours of scary, actually.

And, in 10 years, I will be 30.

Enough scary talk.

I'm thinking about buying a dodgy camera. Possibly this model below. I'm not sure. I don't think I know enough about cameras to make an educated guess on if this camera is easy to use or not. But it does take pretty photos. Not good quality photos. The quality is dodgey and the colours are all whacked out. But the photos it takes are pretty. And I'm sick of digital cameras. It takes 120 film though, and I have a feeling that not many places can process that. Research awaits me!

The camera below is a Diana+ camera. It's a recreation of a dodgy camera from the 60's. I want it. ...But it might be a random internet WANT moment. Not sure yet...

I'm cold. So, I think I might go and kick a soccer ball around for Vespa.

Oh, and look, I found them:

This Needs No Title

The week, again, has been crazy.

It's only 10pm and while I was watching the tele about 10 minutes ago I was tired. Extremely tired. Why, it was 4pm today when a wave of tiredness crashed over me and I thought, "Gee, I could sure do with some sleep right now."

But now that it's 10pm and I've brushed my teeth and am all ready for my beddy bed my brain and eyes have decided that they would very much like to be wide wide awake. Though, I know that as soon as my head touches that pillow I will be off in the land of dreams.

Dreams have been nice lately. Except for one creepy one. I cannot remember what happened in it, but it was one where I was in a house that was supposed to be home, but was different to what my home looks like. I have them from time to time, where my home is a totally different house that's not my home, but is supposed to be. They give me eerie feelings. Eerie, creepy, unsettling feelings. And that's often all I can remember of them. The feeling.

I just looked up at one of my many Green Day posters and just felt a whelm of happiness sweep over me. I hadn't listened to their new album in a few days, and as I listen to it now, and as I just glanced up at the poster, it reminded me that I'll be seeing them in December. And that feeling is bliss. Much better than the unsettling dream feeling.

--

Also, it is officially two weeks until my birthday. And I still have absolutely no idea what I want. Sometimes it can suck not being a wanter...

I'm Fine and Dandy with the Me Inside

If you had come up to me this time last week and said "Hey, Von, by this time next week you'll have a paying internship and have a happening social life!" I would have laughed at you.

Seriously, this week has been crazy. And overwhelming. So much has happened this week. So much progress in my life has been made in this week than..let's say...the whole year. Well, sort of. Change the "whole year" part to "the past month". That seems better.

So um, if you hadn't already guessed, I have an internship. And it's fun. I'm enjoying it so far. There is nothing fun or enjoyable about waking up at 6:30am though. I don't know how people do it every day. And I don't know how I'm going to be able to do it for the rest of this month. I suppose I will get used to it though. I did it for 2 years in high school with no problems, so I should be able to do it again.

Friday night was amazingly fun. Roaming around Newtown looking for fortune cookies (there's none there, btw) then settling for a watermelon, then roaming around Newtown looking for cocktail umbrellas to stick in the watermelon (there's no cocktail umbrellas in Newtown either, by the way).

The watermelon was to bring to a party. And it was thoroughly enjoyed, as watermelons are.

Just a note though: never use a TomTom for navigational purposes if you're planning on walking to the destination. It just doesn't work. Sure, it will get you to your destination....after it's gotten you lost and taken you the epicly epic long way there.

So, this week was fun. And I've heard a couple of comments from people that made me happy. Life is good.
