Job interview? For moi?

+ Yes plz! :P. Sooo yeah. Jess and I both had job interviews today at our local Blockbuster. Augh, I was so nervous! But I know the lady who did the interview, Kerri (who's really cool, by the way xD), so it wasn't too bad haha. She told me that some people will get call backs and they'll have another interview with the other people that work there. Gahhh. We'll see :|. Oh my gosh... before the interview we had to fill in this form thingo. And it had... maths questions. Fricken what?! My poor brain lol. It was like... if someone had $50, and they bought this and this, how much change would they have? Pretty simple, yes? I THINK NOT. I was so nervous my brain was like... yup that plus that... plus... 65498451 COMPUTER SAYS NOOO Dx. *Shakes head*

+ Holy crow, it's September already?! D: That means I'm turning... 20. This month. Ewwww xD. Augh, I'm so old haha. And I've done like... jack all lolll. Blah.

+ Hummm. Oh! We got Spore last week! Fun game. I could spend ages just creating little alien dudes. And it's so prettyyy. And spaceyyy. So cool. Right now I'm in the Space stage or whatever... and... my allies keep attacking each other :\. Who am I supposed to help?! I'll end up with an enemy either way, and I don't want that :c. CAN'T EVERYONE PLAY NICE? GOD. Lol. NO, I WANT TO TAKE OVER THE UNIVERSE MUAHAHAHA...HA! :| And it's cool how you can make the planets all nicey and stuff hehe.

+ And I made this comic... thing. I wasn't really planning to, but I was scribbling and playing around with facial expressions on Photoshop... so I decided to put it together lol. It's kind of big though haha. 'coz I make the file so fricken HUUUGE and the lines so small xD. Here's page1 and page2. I did the Falcon really big too, so I couldn't fit the thing into the background ha.

+ Aaand some photos I took the other day whilst sitting outside with Brandy, because it was so nice out and all the birdies were singiiing.

Yayyy.

That is all!

Edit: Slight layout change! :D

Strange dream...

+ Sooo... I had this really epic/weird dream the other night! I only remember bits and pieces, though.

Alllrighty. It started with me walking around with a kid in my arms. Like, toddler age, maybe? I don't know. I don't know who's kid it was haha. Not mine! Let's just say it was... my little sister xD. Yeah, let's go with that lolll. Anyways, I'm in -Protect child with my life!- mode, walking around through a crowd of people... somewhere... all stealthy like. Then, as I'm looking through the crowd, every now and then there's a person... staring at me :| *Zooms in dramatically on each staring face*! I'm all "Oh noes! They've come to take her! D:" and I start walking reallyreallyreally fast! Buuut they get me, darn. Aaand somehow I know that these bad guys are... VAMPIRES haha.

So, I'm in their lair or whatever. Some room... with a window xD. Filled with vampire guys (just guys, yup :\). And for some reason, Jess and Sarah are there too LOL. Where'd they come from? Random. But they let them go, pffft. The bad!vampires take the kid and start passing her along to the boss man... Who's... bald LOL (Lex Luthor style!). OMG he has no hair, he MUST be evil! :o. Then, just as he's about to reach for her, I charge through the people/vampires and grab her! aaand... Jump through the window? Booyah! How'd I manage that? Yeah whatever lol.

So I'm running again. I think "Crap, I left my bag back there! I need a phone..." and who do I find? Terrie xD. I ask her to use her phone, and she's all "sure c: *slowly takes phone out of bag...and... swipes it with a phone card? before giving it to me*". But before I get to dial a number, I see more vampires acommin'! Dun dunnn *dashes away*.

Next I'm... in a shopping center (I think I remember super jumping on the way? Bahaha WEIRD) haha. I look through a window in a store (one of those huuuge display type ones) and I see Jess and Sarah walking past. I'm all "OMG you gais! *Bangs window*" and they look vaguely in my direction... GAH HELLO?! haha... but the bad!vampires are backkk, nuuu! I turn around and see two exits, both already blocked by two vamp dudes. They look like brothers to me. With dark hair? *Shrugs* The one on the right is huuuge and quite scary, while the one on the left is smaller framed and has a kinder face (I can't remember what they actually looked like, though :c). I walk up to the dude on the left all srs bsns! and he just... steps aside and lets me through. Whatever man, I'm out!

I'm on the run again (you'd think they'd have me by now, being vampires and all lol. You guys suck!)... running, running, RUNNING. It starts to get dark and everyone (non vampire... people) has disappeared. Then... from the left, the right... OMG I'M SURROUNDED! I'm either all "Yeah, you want some?!?!" or "Oh help me, Jebus!" can't remember. Next thing is... good!bad!vampire comes to save the dayyy! -Glee!- He helps me and the little lady escape to some place. I'm like WTF MAN, WTF and he's all -embarrassed/unsure- ...

...and then I wake up.

Aaahaha. C'mon, it was just getting good! xP WEIRD. Anyways, yeah... Just thought I'd share LOL. I'm sure there was more, but my brains all "fast forwarding memory to a more recent one" -_-.

+ Besides that RIVETING (and looong) story... nothing much has happened on my side of the world! Uhhh... went over to Sarah's place the other day. You bet we got more pics of Lucky!




Awh, he's such a spunk. We also played a bit of Halo. I think I'm getting better. Not getting totally pwned (at least, not all the time haha) must be a good sign, right? :P.

Hmmm. This layout is pretty plain. I need to add some stuff to the sides... Hm.

(Gosh, wall o' text much?!)

Moar updatesss

+ Okay, so... Breaking Dawn. Hmmm. I'm not quite sure what to think lol. It was... alright? Stephenie's writing style seemed different of something. I'm not sure. I know I need to read it again to get my head around it all haha.

+ Oh yeah, Twilight (the movie) has a new release date! Now it's coming out on November 21st in America and Australia is getting it on December 11th. W00t! Only because Warner Bros. pushed the date back for the next HP movie though, which sucks a little. But I don't mind, really. I'm looking forward to Twilight more then Harry Potter... I haven't really been liking the Harry Potter movies much *shrugs*. Sorry Harry! xP

+ Oh and, speaking of things Potter, I sort of made a Hogwarts student... character lol (and some little birdies). Biiig picture. And I hate how the quality lowers when you save the image :'c.

I shall name her Laila! Go, go, Ravenclaw! xD I made a background... but when I put her with the background... fehhh. I don't like it :c. I suck at backgrounds! I sort of sketched over a photo taken of our TV while playing a Harry Potter game haha. A crappy pic, though. I just used it for the tree, mainly. I couldn't really make out much else haha.

Woah, look at that suuuper quality :P! It's the Clock Tower Courtyard. Mann, I can't shade for crap either! Aughhh lol.

+ Jess and I finished playing the Halo 3 campaign on... easy lol. Not easy! >:[ Ahh I suck haha. But still fun! I'm getting better... I think. Oh! Mum played Halo with me today! I totally let her win... *shifty glances* haha. Really! She gave up after a while 'coz she said it was too hard. Awh :P. Dad didn't want to play, though. I'll let you win! xD

+ Anyone been watching the Olympics? I have! I like watching the horse riding stuff, gymnastics, and swimming stuff mainly. Mum keeps saying that she's sick of the Olympics haha. Bawh.

+ Aaand Assassins Creed! Another one of the games that came with our Xbox 360 deal thingo. Awesome game! Alright... it's a little repetitive, but fun! A little frustrating, too haha. I'll be running, running, running! and he'll run up the closest wall, grab onto the window ledge... and then just hang there. Which leads to me being all "OMG U R SO RETARDED!!1 *thrashes buttons*" lolol. At first I was like... I don't want to kill people :c. But I can't help but laugh when there's a soldier dude on the roof, and he's like "You're not supposed to-" and then I "*Ditch throwing knife at you!1*" and then he's all "*choke-gurgle-cough*" Baha take that! Feel my wrathhh!... yeah. I love the little things that people say, too. "Curse him! Curse him! Curse the English King and his army of infidels!" or something. And, whilst I'm (Altair, whatever xP) climbing up a wall someone (a soldier?) might say something like "wouldn't it be funny if he hurt himself?". And Soldiers "Where did he go?" which is immediately followed by "There he is!". I don't know why that makes me laugh haha. "He's an assassin! Get him!" "He's getting better and better at slipping away" lollll. Altair says a lot of cool stuff as well. I'm trying to find a site with quotes... but I can't :\. I did find this though LOL *wipes eyes* funnyyy.

Hrm... I still need to change my layout a bit. Later, later!

Peace and safety, brother! :P

New layout for now, and....

wow haha... that was a long post last time! And I typed that pretty quick just to get it over with xP.

Alrighty, a new layout! This is just a quick fix so that I could figure out what the heck I was doing haha. I just need to change the header and some of the colours and stuff... hmm. But I almost gave up on blogger! I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong with the header among other things :\. Sooo I found this website called Blogger Buster, which was really, really helpful c:.

Oh! We got Breaking Dawn yesterday! Yaaay. When we first got to the Angus and Robertson bookstore at Munno Para (around 12:30pm), the lady there said that she hadn't received any copies of the book yet (she'd just gotten of the phone while we were waiting, talking to someone who was asking about the book too lolll). So we went to the Post Office, flicked through one of the phone books and found the number for the A&R at Elizabeth. No dice. The person there said that all the copies they had were given to people who had pre-ordered the book. Dang! xD Sooo we went for a little drive down to the A&R at Gawler. Nada :c. The woman working there said she wasn't sure what was going on and that a lot of their stores hadn't got their orders in yet. After all that, we went back to Munno Para again and asked the lady there (who serisouly reminded me of one of my primary school teachers. Related much? Hmm) to hold two copies of Breaking Dawn for us. She took Mum's name and number and said she'd call us as soon as the books came in. At around 3:30pm she called and said the books had arrived. Huzzah! We left soon after she called to pick them up. They had a pile of books to the side which were for people who had pre-ordered, and a teeeny pile left over to sell haha. I guess they under estimated the demand for Breaking Dawn :P.

The End!

Aaand... guess what Jess and I got on the weekend? I feel kind of bad about it lol. So, Sunday afternoon we were all set to go to the movies to see The Dark Knight (which was pretty good, by the way. Cool movie. A bit long, though). Since we were going to Elizabeth anyways, I thought it'd be a good idea to mooch around the shops, just to see what different stores had the Xbox 360 going for, before the movies. Jess and I had the money and everything organised for when we did decide to buy oneee. But Dad offered to get Jess and I the Xbox 360 (Elite :o) as an early birthday present, as they said they were going to get us a PS3 anyways. That I wasn't expecting xD. Man, I feel like such a spoilt brat lol. Well, I can brush up on my (non-existing) Halo skills now!

I'm gonna go back to reading BD now, which I'm about halfway through. Maybe I should eat first... Must. Finish. Book!

...a month?

Dude, update tiiime.

+ Jess and I bought some games a while ago. We got Cooking Mama, Super Smash Brothers Brawl, and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Cooking Mama is definitely entertaining haha. Cute game. And SSBB is so fun to play with friends! I love iiit. Doesn't mean I'm any good at it, though xD. And Twilight Princess... dude, that game rocks! Gah, I love it so muuuch. I love how it's so ummm... interactive? Is that the right word? xP I like riding around on Epona and how you get all these different tools or whatever to use... and the different armour... and how it goes day/night... and the battle system thingo! *Swings Wii remote around* lol. And it's awesome how Link turns into a wolf! Hahhh <3.

+ Oh yeah, Odin Sphere went back to Blockbuster without me finishing it :c. I just couldn't do iiit. I got right to the end... and I got to the second boss... and I couldn't beat him! Augghh. I got so frustrated, let me tell you! Lol. Sooo I said "screw you, game!" and sent it back. I guess I can just hire it some other time and start the stories again so I can get everyone leveled up some more *nods*.

+ I Finally went through Deviant Art today! I had 800+ messages... which I deleted. Can't be stuffed reading allll those journals lol. I started going through my deviations, then the internet started being stupid *shakes fist in modems general direction*. There's about 2000+ deviations right now haha. I'll get there eventually...

+ Oh and Jess and I went to Sarah's the other day and we brought the camera to take some pictures of Lucky, which we haven't done for a while. Gawsh, he's getting big(er)! Such a silly boy haha. Here!





Bawh. Aaand we played some Halo! Cool game. I still suck, though xD. Darn it! We went over to Sarah's place again today and played some more Halo, too :D. Jess and I bought a Xbox controller so we could play with three players. We'd have to buy another controller eventually! You know, when we get our Xbox... *cough* :P.

+ Speaking of... I want an Xbox 360! I was looking at all these games that are coming out, too. I don't want it just for Halo, nerrr! I've always wanted to get an xbox, though hehe. There's Tales of Vesperia coming out, that looks nice. And The Last Remnant and Infinite Undiscovery, they look prettyyy. Oh and Fable II! I haven't played the first one... but I want to! :P And not to mention FFXIII. Le sighhh.

+ AvCon got the flick this year lol. I'm sorryyy. I saw the timetable and I was just like, fehhh. Plus Shin Tokyo was having a STORE WIDE!!! sale, so we went to Rundle Mall instead. I didn't end up buying anything, though xD.

+ I've been thinking about volunteering at the Animal Welfare! I just think it'd be a cool thing to do c:. Plus I'd like to do stuff with animals! And it'd be a good way for me to get experience and skills and stuff, which I don't have and seriously need lol. The only thing is... it's a liiittle bit far away. And I'm not sure how to get there :\. Take the train - bus - bus - bus ect? Hmmm.

+ We got a new bird bath a whiles ago, too! Isn't that exciting?! *Nods furiously*




+ Hrm... I want a new layouttt. I tried uploading a new one, but I don't want it to delete my widgets :\. It won't delete my posts, will it? I guess I could just re-add my widgets. I tried to change my header but it won't let meee. Grr.

+ BREAKING DAWN ON MONDAY! HELL YESSS!!!1 *Flails*!

*~Danielle~*

The latest...

-Lol at title-

+ We went to Warrawong yesterday. It's pretty nice down there! Very quiet. And it has no entrance fee! xP As per usual, Jess has awesome pics here on her blog! Prettyprettypretty c:. Oh and we checked out this shopping center, or Village... whatever it was called, afterwards and the Dymocks bookshop there had a Breaking Dawn (and Brisingr) poster on it's window! Two! :o So happyyy lol.

+ I've been playing this game called Odin Sphere a lot lately! On Wednesday Mum and I went to Blockbuster and I was looking at the games when I saw it hehe. I just wanted a game to play to keep me busy because of the amount of internet that has already been used so far haha. It's a cool game. Gets a bit frustrating at times, but the story is good and the it's very pretty looking. I'm thinking about buying it... hmm.

+ Zomg, Robert Patterson sings! Check out his Myspace. He sounds so different! I would have never of guessed that it was him. Wowww.

+ Jess and I are in separate rooms now! I'm in the cosy room and Jess is in the bigger one :P. I love my little room! xD I've still got some things on the floor 'cos I need more cupboard space lol. Mum and Dad have clothers in theeere. I'll have to put a picture up sometime... when it's more tidy.

+ Since changing rooms we've gotten rid of a lot of crap haha. I found a really old picture of Roxie on a floppy disc. Bawh! She looked so different then. We've been getting her out a lot lately, too.
Here's before and after:

<3!
+ Aaand...

My hair cut! It looks pretty much the same, just shorter and a smidge darker. Lol my pictures always look the same xD.

+ Oh! AVCon is next month! I'm so there! :D I was checking out the website and I found out that they're doing a Lolita competition! Sooo then I started looking through all these Lolita dresses. So cute! :D I waaant. I mean, not really... I do, but I'm not sure that I'd actually buy one. And when would I wear it? They're not exactly cheap! Oh wells, I still love them :P. Now I shall spam my post with more pictures!







Yaaay.

Uhm, I think that's alllll lol.

Michael Bublé...

...is awesome! For serious. Mom, Dan, Jess and myself saw him in concert on Monday night. Gah, he was awesooome. Such a funny, cheeky guy. And he's such a good entertainer. I had so much fun! :D This was only my second concert (first was Anthony Callea) and I must say I had a much better time lol. I mean... Anthony's a great singer and everything, but the venue was much, much better for Michael. And the crowd was a bit more... older? Haha. There were a few "Marry me, Michael!"'s but I could actually hear what he was saying lol. Yay! And the support act, Naturally Seven were... wow. Check 'em out on youtube! We got one of their CD's, but I think they sound a lot better live c:. Jess has some pictures on her blog (as usual I'm too lazy to put them here lol).

Uhm, what else?

Oh on Saturday Jess and myself went over to Sarah's place and hung out with her and Terrie. Haven't seen Terrie in a while, so it was pretty good to catch up with her. Aaand the family (you know, Jess... Mum and Dad lol) went over to Jo and Jezza's place for a BBQ (they're old friends from when we were up in Malaysia). That was nice, too c:.

Oh, oh! The MTV Awards! They showed a 'scene' (pfft. More like parts of a scene cut together) from the Twilight movie during the Pre Show. That was pretty cool.


Heee :D (I have a few (tiny!)... issues? with it but I won't bitch/whine/complain about it here :P).

Aaand I got my hair cut and dyed on Tuesday. Finally lol. I'll put up a picture when I take a good one haha.

Man... tomorrow Jess and I are going to renew our Learners Permit. Yes, I'm almost 20 (*shudder*) and I haven't got my license (or a job for that matter. I know I have an application for Foodland somewhere...). Bah! I don't really like driving... and it's not like I really go anywhere, anyways. Plus the cost of petrol these days... meh. :P

Narnia this weekend! Yesss. I've been wanting to see that for a while hehe. Yay!

*~Danielle~*
