Lately, I have been thinking alot about crazes. The temporary things that people take part in.
I have been thinking about a few things for myself. Dunno if I would call them a craze or just things that I wanna try and see how I do. A challenge.
As in the below post, I blabbed about not drinking.Still on that buzz and feeling ok. Mind you, Day6. Im not finding it a challenge because Ive been keeping busy and have never been a mon,tues,thurs,sunday drinker. But from 3times a week to 0days a week it will still be a challenge in itself. The second thing ive been thinking about is trying to be a vegeterian. Dunno why, cos I love meat and for Iron reasons, i should be eating meat. BUT i do have Iron tablets. but hmmmm might think about that one a bit more. I def wont be giving up seafood.
The other thing ive been thinking about is the lemon detox. Ive been talking to this girl at my work who is currently on it, and what it entails is some nasty drinks that you have to drink 6-9 times a day, you cant eat and it cleanses your system and breaks all the shit in you down (not literally). You lose weight, yes, but thats not the primary reason I would do it. Id probley do it for 2weeks and its $120 from a health shop.Just to give my body a good ol wash. Might look into it for the near future.
Ive always been kinda anti these crazes. Ive seen my friends go through these fazes. Some people have been successful, others last a few months. But i think if you set yourself a goal Ie. Being a vego for 2months and stick to it- youve succeeded. Ive seen my friends go down the detox path, yoga path, vego path, anti drinking and smoking path, religion paths etc etc. And i NEVER thought id be one of those gals. I was always like WHAT THE FUCK?! when someone told me about a crazy they were on, i didnt see the point. So my current state of questioning mind is kinda strange. But, we'll see where it takes me. I guess I just feel like another challenge.I'll keep this updated as to my progress.If i do decide to go vego for a bit, dont fear, I will still shave, wear killer heels and wont chant around fires.Crazy hippies.
Ps. I totally get paid thursday,,,,, Miss wong? I think so.

Time to get a little bit honest up in this mother...
OK OK OK...SO, recently (as in the last couple of days) I have decided to see how long I can stay sober for. So far? One weekend down. Reason? too many. Start from the top? okies.
1) Im embarassing. Do crazy shit, thats beyond normal people drunk.Recently, nearly got the cops called on me (im not going into details),being brutally honest with people when its completely uncalled for and just generally being a pain in the ass.
2) Pissing off people I love and care about and having them justify my drunkeness to others (constant apologies on my behalf). Nothing I say or do is EVER intentionally to hurt them but sometimes it ends up that way. And im sick of apologising the next day and even putting them in the position in the first place. Dont get me wrong, it has been good in the sense that somethings i have said to certain people, needed to be said but i just didnt have the balls to say it, so alcohol has given me that courage to get some stuff off my chest. But hmmm could come across as cowardly. But i just choke up, when honesty talks have to come about.
3) My body. Poor thing. Has taken a sivere beating. From falling over to excessive alcohol consumption. It needs a break. I look like a 10year kid, who is going through the wars, minus the innocence of it all.
4) When i dont go to town, im like "what the heck do i do with myself"..... And i never wanted to get to that stage. Its sad and pathetic. Like what? Is this all there is to life? DOUBT IT! not on my life clock. So im doing things that i should do and that i wanna do . Being feircely independant.Hanging out with people who I havnt seen in ages, spending quality hang over free time with people and doing productive things ie. This, work for work, research and just generally getting on with LIFE!
Dont get me wrong. Im not saying that I wont ever go out again,and that im going to be sober for the rest of my life or anything. Im not putting a time on it. Im just taking it day by day, seeing how i feel about it. Ill re-evaluate by the end of each week as to wether i feel like drinking or not. But to be honest, the above reasons not to drink, are putting me off a drop. Im not one of those girls who can have a couple and no when to stop. HONESTY TIME. Im not. I go the whole nine yards and sometimes more.I dont drink pussay drinks either.So ive realised this weakness in myself and just wanna do everything in moderation :) After all , isnt that the key for life? Whatever. Just doing me.

Things that I cant get enough of right now...
Coffee and hotnewhiphop.com (for the latest, gets updated daily. love .)
ALSO!!!!! I recently ( maybe im WAY behind) discovered a designer called 'Natalie Wood'. Her Label is 'Something Else' and shes an Australian designer who also is creative director for (im sure your all familiar with ) the label 'Insight'.
"Something Else is a culmination of high fashion and street edge, offering beautiful fabrication and prints in wearable yet directional pieces for girls who are experimental with their style.

The label has garnered support from key fashion media such as Vogue Australia, Russh, Marie Claire, Oyster and Nylon."
She collaborates with a range of artists to make her peices different. Yeah, theres some generic and average stuff in there but im really appreciating majority of it. The stockists in welly are Miss wong, Fusion,Good as gold and hurricane jeans.I went into 'Miss wong' yesturday and just about died at some of the stuff thats in there from this queen.I wouldnt waste my time looking at what fusion and hurricanes stock from her just cos it will be stuff any (Wo)man and her bitches can get, im just sticking with the wong. AND her shit is cheap. When i say cheap, I mean most of the stuff I appreciated was from $140-$300. I dunno, I think thats reasonable for a dress that no other belle will have. Me Personally? Im going in as soon as my next pay comes in. I will be purchasing a Purple dress with amazing details (Im all about the details), a Mesh cropped Cardie, a who knows if ill be able to stop myself there.
Heres her website anyway http://www.something.net.au/home.html and be sure to check out her blogg, shes got some crazy artwork in there. She seems like a bit of a free spirited weirdo, but shes up there in my books.
Another website be sure to check out while where on the fashion buzz, is http://www.polyvore.com/ Take your time, have a look around, register yourself and get creating some outfits. Its so much fun. You will get lost in this site for HOURS! Its also a really good way to import things. Click on the item of clothing, go to the website, enter in CC deats and go from there. WAH BAM! Clothes that no one else in this town has. Sure, some is hella pricy. But some is SO surprisingly cheap. Labels that are prolly 'a bit shit' , but if its cheap, Rep it for a month or two then throw that shit out.
Ps. Quite Excited about top shop now selling to NZ.
thats enough of the pash the fash talk.

Bare with me..
Ok so firstly, I realise this is not at all visually stimulating to look at just yet. I am kinda technologically retarded, but I will get there (hence the title of this blogg)...
I guess I decided to do this because 1) I got told to by a few people that I should, 2) I use to write ALL the time and now I cant be bothered because pen meeting paper is too much effort and I guess I miss the writing aspect of my life 3) Creative outlet.
This blogg is going to be WAY inconsistent. Im telling you now. There will be aspects of it that are "Dear Diary" and there will be aspects of it that are "SHIT LOOK WHAT I FOUND!" and then some "Do you know what i predict/wreakon?" . The last two aspects will most likely be in relation to hiphop or fashion.
A bit about me (although, chances are if you have this addy, its because u asked me for it, so u know me) BUT - Im young(ish), Live in Welly CBD, Love fashion/styling, obsessed with hip hop, and am female. Dont wanna be detailed as the WWW is a big scary place.word.
Im going to try and write in this thing as often as I can. I dont have the webb at my house at the mo, so will just try and either get to my p's house, get the net at my house, or get over my hatred of internet cafes.
