|-TaO-|

Im cleaning up my friends list, as well as returning my journal to friends only. Please post if you wish to stay on my friends list, or if your not actually on it and you wish to be. Or send me a message or w/e you feel is easiest. As long as you let me know ill keep you on my list. Thanks!

Im getting married! No, seriously, I am. Well, not legally, but Djamin and I will be going through the motions, per se. You see, Jade's (one of our friends) mother is training to be a celebrant (person who conducts weddings), and she needs a video of a 'wedding' (obviously fake), to send to show how she conducts it. So Dj and I are being the happy couple having the wedding, lol! It's gonna be interesting to see how it all works without actually having the cost etc. So now we just have to organise everything, so it looks like a real wedding! lol, this shall be an interesting few weeks... =D

Well, the weekend was awesome!! Here is what went on:

Arrived at my sisters place at 530pm on Friday. Was a good drive, following trucks going 90-100 kmph in pouring rain where if I was lucky I could see 50m ahead. Good times!!

Went out to dinner at The Spot, we had Turkish, was very delicious! Tanya didnt want to waste the bread and didnt want to ask for a doggy bag, so she wrapped it in a napkin and took it home, lol! Then had ice-cream at another place, I had Waffles, Tanya just had ice-cream.

Sat morning went out to Breakfast with Jules and Tanya, I had pancakes, they had eggs benedict. Quite nice.

Tanya went to work from there from 11-5 so I wandered around Westfield, Eastgardens. Found Dad a present for Fathers day, and found some nice perfume for Djamin. Smelt like 20 before I found one i liked! lol. Then went and watched a movie so I could get off my feet while I waited for Tanya to finish work. Watched Forbidden Kingdom, good movie, nothing special though.

Went out to a Spanish restaraunt that night with Tanya, Clare, Scott, Ilgar (I think thats it??), Christian, and a few others. 9 all up. Delicious food, outrageous cost!! lol. But it was good nonetheless. Went and played pool in some bar place after that, which was lots of fun! ended up playing some drunken idiots. We flogged them about 3 times, then wanted to leave so we lost, lol.

Sunday morning Tanya and I had breakfast in the park with the sun shining (FINALLY! It had been raining ALL WEEKEND, untill Sunday morning, lol =D). Then I left Sydney at about 930 for an uneventful trip home.

OH WAIT!! It was sort of eventful, well, one event anyway. Some lady in front of me was following the car in front of her too closely, and they stoped real quick, and she didnt stop in time. Was funny watching it! lol.

Got home at about 3, was a good drive through, nothing much happened. Ended up following some 4wd going about 130kmph, so that cut a bit of time off the trip, lol =D.

So there's my weekend for all interested. This weekend will be fairly quiet, I need to save a bit of money for next weekends Dubbo Tournament!! So many things happening!!!! =D I love it!

LOL. intense trainging sessions with Scott are fun!! (no, seriously, it was the best training ive done in a long time)

List of injuries:
Knee to the groin (OW!!)
Bruised left shin (badly corked, icing it atm)
Overextended foot (kicked with scott coming at me, so it bent my foot a bit far back)
Sore knuckles (where we both punched at the same time to the same spot)
Sore right shin (corked, not as bad as left shin)
4-5 bruises on my left arm (sore to touch, from where i block)
3-4 bruises on my right arm (same as left, but not as bad)

And to top it all off, i have a cut almost 1cm long right on the outer edge of my left eye where scott's toenail cut it. If it were any closer to my eye I would probably be almost blind in that eye.

But other than that it was awesome! Managed to stay almost toe to toe with scott, which is no easy job seeing as he is about 16Kg heavier than me and in the division above me aswell. i'm really looking forward to Dubbo =D.

I caved, but i don't realy care. I thought about it for a good long while, and I realised I'm not actually 'addicted' in the strictest sense, I go to the gym, do karate, work etc. and WoW is only something I do when i have the spare time, mainly on weekends too. I no longer raid, so I have no commitments that I feel like I have to attend, I just play when time permits, which really hasnt been much lately.

Other than that things are going really well. Most of you probably already know, but I've moved in with my beautiful girl, Djamin. Thing's are going great with us, heading to Sydney this weekend together if she doesn't have to work, if she does then I'm treckin down there alone so i can visit my big sister! I can't wait. I miss my sister so much, but I know she's doing great in everything. So Friday I'll be either driving down with Dj or flying down on my own. We'll know whether Dj is coming by Wednesday, here's hopeing she can come!

Tafe is boring as ever, nothing new happening. I have lots of shit to write up this week, but shouldn't actually be too hard. Passing all the modules, so nothing really difficult to do.

I'll be competing in Dubbo for the National Belt Challenge in the Te-Ashi-Kai Shin Karate-Michi competition. Will be insane! Practically full body contact, under 65Kg division, which is good for me since im 62Kg. Thats toward the end of this month, and our club is bussing it down there, which is always fun =D.

Anyway, back to tafe now. Chow!!

The Japanese drum group, Tao, were fucking amazing. Anyone who didnt go watch em missed out on an amazing performance. Totally amazing!

I quit. For good. No more. Must now find a new hobby *thinks*

I has a pierced ear. YAY!

( pierced )

I have a new phone and I'm getting my ear pierced this arvo.

That is all

Ok, so i know i havent posted in like, 2 weeks or so, but ive been busy with work, and karate, and moving out of the airport and into djamin's place that i really havent had much time to post. So here's the updates:

Ive moved into Dj's. We are now officially living together, and i dont regret one moment of it. I love every moment spent with her, there is nothing ive done since we started dating that i regret :).

Work is work. Nuff said. Same old shit, sitting in a room, chatting about nothing at all. Things are cruisy.

Karate is normal. Tournament on last sunday was awesome! Loved it =D. Watched all the juniors/seniors do Kata, most were pretty good, nothing special though. 3 weapons kata's were done, mine, adams and troys. I won that, but that was kind of a given. Then demonstrations. FUCKING AWESOME!!! there were 3 young blue belts who did syncronised kata. Garry broke a board with a punch, Macca broke 3 boards (together) with a downward hammer-fist, Adam and Beau did a coreographed (sp?) fight which looked cool, and I did a 4 directional break (1 board in front, 1 behind and 1 on each side). I'm getting a video of it, and might upload it or something so you guys can see =D. I misskicked the first try, but i got it perfect the second. I still can't believe that i did it.
Then we did the Kumite (fighting). I had 2 fights there, won both, but i wasnt really in a division, so i didnt technically come first. Was still good fun though :).

Other than that life's been pretty cruisy. My car is being a piece of shit again, but not alot i can do about it at the moment, ill take it to a mechanic next week i think. If i can be bothered, lol.

Well, thats all from me for now. TTFN!

The Dark Knight was awesome. Ledger really made that movie. Amazing acting. The joker was a psycotic freak, but he played it so well. Well worth going to see.

What is that word for the end of one thing, the beginning of something new? well, anyway, thats the point im up to in my life... the beginning of the new. We shall see how things go. As i have been told: 'slow, slow, slow.'

Ok, so I had work experience this week. That was pretty good. Enjoyed actually working on the planes rather than just learning about them. My hands are scratched to the shithouse though, but they don't actually hurt suprisingly. And I'm glad i took work in Tamworth, means i can still go to the gym and stuff :). Though I've gotten lazy with pump, so I'm going to have to get back into it properly. But if my back continues to hurt like this I might have to give up pump altogether :(.

In other news, ummm, ok well, maybe there really isnt any other news. Oh wait! I had to catch some stupid bird (actual bird, not slang for girl :P) that was flying around the top of my block's stairway, cause it couldn't get itself out and kept running into the glass doors. I think I scared the poor thing half to death, but if it was left up there it would have starved. Its little heart was going so quickly in my hands! I hope it's happy now that it's free, lol :).

Well, thats all from me ttfn!

Fucking car. Fucking mechanic who didnt pick up on the problem when he serviced the car. Im really rather annoyed at him...

So heres the story:

( My story )

God this one was a bitch to write =/. I think this will be the last poem I write for a while. I'm beginning to force the words, they aren't just flowing, so they just dont seem as good. Well, anyway, here it is:

( The Day )

Its really annoying when you understand the subject easily, and everyone else has to go over it 5-10 times. I'm getting bored sitting here doing nothing, and if i go ahead then i'll be just as bored later. Sigh

I guess ill just go ahead. At least I'll have more time to go over everything.

Ive been in the mood for writing lately. Heres another poem, I'm branching out now, trying different styles. First attempt at this style of poem. :)

( Nightmare )

I was in the mood to write a poem. Here it is. Just something i did quickly, no real effort put into it. :)

( The Night )

I passed this week. 82.5% :)

I have nothing planned this weekend. Except gym and parents on sunday. I love weekends where i can kick back and relax.

I think ill sleep the weekend away.

Is it just me, or is life passing by very quickly? I cant believe its over halfway through the year. Where does time go??
