Day 08

Day 08 - A song you know all the words to

Reminds me of my SingStar days

Day 06 and Day 07

Whoops late again! Blame it on having to write my essay...

Day 06 - A song that reminds you of somewhere

This one reminds me of London



Day 07 - A song that reminds you of a certain event

When Will I Be Famous

Apparently I am famous? Just because I went to a few social gatherings, that happened to have newspaper photographers about...



This one was taken at the Dizzee Rascal concert I went to a little while ago. My friend didn't want the photo taken :S

The company I work for celebrated it's 30th year (technically last year) with a party for all our Canberra clients and crew. This is with one of my work collegues and her boyfriend. She has a running joke that if she attends work functions and has a photo taken with myself or my dad, it'll make the paper.

Over and out!

The Game

Wow I appear to have taken a pounding today at soccer.

I don't think I ended up playing a great game. We did lose 2-0. I just couldn't run; it felt as though I were pulling weights behind me.

The worst part though? My coach announced, after the commencement of the game, that he was no longer coaching us. I'm actually quite saddened about this. He first coached us last season, but a few of us girls knew him from the previous season/s as he coached the level below ours and we trained together. So far we have been told that the Premier League Womens coach will also take our team, along with some help from his assistant (who is also a player herself). But it won't be the same. I wonder how all the other girls feel about this. I'm sure it will come up at training on Tuesday.

Thank you for everything coach! The game won't be the same without you.

And now I must add my next entry for the music challenge:

Day 05: A song that reminds you of someone

This goes to my friend Little Miss Chatterbox. The amount of time we spent listening to this song together...

My Brother, The Idiot

So my brother came to my room (which he never does while I'm there) to ask me a question. First he needed to know if Baby Sis was about, but I told him she was out at a friends place. Then next came this:

"So. Do you know how to use the iron?

"No I am not ironing your shirt for you."

"Aww come on!"

"No."

"Just have a look, do you think it needs to be ironed? Can I get away without doing it?"

"You have to iron it. And do it yourself."

"Maybe mum will do it for me..."

At that point he wandered off to harrass my parents, and came back later looking all smug as he told me that my dad would do it for him.

Gah, this boy will never learn to look after himself! If my sisters won't do anything for him, he tries my mother and his girlfriend. Never thinks to Actually Do Things Himself.

I'll make him do it next time...

Catching Up

Whoops, running a day behind. Here we go:

Day 03: A song that makes you happy



And now for today's:

Day 04: A song that makes you sad



Must get back to the Dreaded Report *sigh* before I can watch Harry Potter 7 Part I!

What I do for Friends

Spending eight and a half hours in a hospital waiting room is no easy feat.

Yesterday I spent my day hanging out at the hospital as my friend Little Miss Chatterbox was to have day surgery.

I got to the hospital at 11am and spent a few hours just hanging out with Little Miss Chatterbox, catching up as I hadn't seen her in a while. Then at 2:45pm she was finally taken in for her surgery. I spent the next two hours either reading a book or watching her mother pace anxiously. Finally, after spending some time in Recovery, we we're able to see her. Poor thing wasn't looking so good, and every now and then sharp pains would consume her. It was at this point that I began to feel anxious myself. I tried really hard not to show any outward signs but I couldn't stop wringing my hands. That was a long two hours before I left the hospital. At one point I was close to breaking point and having a meltdown from having seen a needle. It was a big one. Anyway I walked my friend back to her mothers car before heading home myself.

Now to continue on from yesterday.

Day 02 - Your least favourite song

(I think I forgot to mention, but all the songs I will be using are ones I currently have in my music library)

And now I must leave you to go support my friend Little Miss Chatterbox with her day surgery.

Have You Heard The Music?

Ok so I have *finally* managed to get a decent amount of sleep these past few nights. And it's done a world of wonders. I feel like new again, except for the aches and pains from playing soccer. And man, they suck!

After a disastrous effort from my group for our last project we managed to get a pretty alright mark. Talking to my lecturer after class, I was under the impression that we would be getting individual marks but as we came together today I discovered that it wasn't the case and we were to be given a group mark. In the end we got a Distinction. I'm not unhappy with the result, just dismayed that I could have possibly achieved a High Distinction but didn't receive it.

Now for something fun! I've seen this making the rounds with some on my friends on facebook, and thought I would give it a try on here. It's the 30 Days of Music. Here's the list of how it works:

Day 01 - Your favourite song
Day 02 - Your least favourite song
Day 03 - A song that makes you happy
Day 04 - A song that makes you sad
Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone
Day 06 - A song that reminds you of somewhere
Day 07 - A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 08 - A song that you know all the words to
Day 09 - A song to make you dance
Day 10 - A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 11 - A song from your favourite band
Day 12 - A song from a band you hate
Day 13 - A song that is a guilty pleasure
Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to love
Day 15 - A song that describes you
Day 16 - A song that you used to love but now hate
Day 17 - A song that you often hear on the radio
Day 18 - A song that you wish you heard on the radio
Day 19 - A song from your favourite album
Day 20 - A song that you listen to when you're angry
Day 21 - A song that you listen to when you're happy
Day 22 - A song that you listen to when you're sad
Day 23 - A song that you want to play at your wedding
Day 24 - A song that you want to play at your funeral
Day 25 - A song that makes you laugh
Day 26 - A song that you can play on your instrument
Day 27 - A song you wish you could play
Day 28 - A song that makes you feel guilty
Day 29 - A song from your childhood
Day 30 - Your favourite song at this time last year

I will have to make a start on this tomorrow, as I need to think about what type of songs fit where. But it sounds like it will be fun!

Anyway, must get back to the researching (really need to get this report done!)

Quiet and Blue?

Just a quick post.

I'm not exactly sure what the issue (could be several) is, but I have been feeling down today.

Started when I left work to go home before Uni, and discovered I had a parking ticket. Again. I only just got one yesterday as well.

While I was home, I hung out with The Boyfriend. Talked about our plans for the weekend. Some of my girlfriends invited me to go to the coast with them, staying at one of the girls family beach house. I had been looking forward to this, until today when I eventually remembered I have a wedding rehearsal I must attend on Saturday morning. So that destroyed my fun.

Lastly at training tonight, my team was having a game against the premier league team. I went in for a tackle at one point and accidentally got the girl in the ankle. I felt so bad. She went to the ground, and as I approached her to see if she was alright, she told me to get away from her. That made me feel horrible. I didn't mean to hurt her, at training no one ever does. But she still spoke nastily to me. Maybe I'm a little sensitive at the moment, but it still cut me. She ended up getting carried over to our bags, and leaving not long after that.

I am also deprived of sleep, since about last Friday I have been going to bed quite late trying to get a project finished. The stress has been wearing me down, especially since I was having to complete more than my fair share of work. My group assignment, total of 5 girls, was completed by two of us. Truth be told, I don't want to go into this again mainly because I could talk forever. But it's in the past, and the presentation has been done.

I think the time has come for me to get some rest, as I may now be talking nonsense. I don't believe I am quite sane right now. Should hopefully get some better posts out soon.
