New Wild Fig

There is a new Wild Fig down at Scarborough, and sadly the Little Fig along West Coast highway is closing after tonight.

My girlfriends and I went to the Wild Fig on Wednesday for out weekly breakfast catch up. The food was just as delicious as the other Figs, but the restaurant's set up was so FUN! There were grass chairs, wood beds and teacup lights to say the least, and the place had such an Alice-in-Wonderland-Esq vibe. I would definitely recommend to anyone 'try out the Wild Fig!'

Winter Cider

Drink it hot or drink it cold. We drank it cold, and it was delicious!

Shmang it gurrrrrrl!

Today is my best friends 21st birthday!
We've been together since 1998, and plan to outfriend Oprah and Gale

Sailor Pluto

I have a 21st coming up in a couple week that is 'dress up as a cartoon character' themed.
I'm going as Sailor Pluto, and tonight I wanted to make sure the wig and dress fit well.
Now I am uber excited!!
All that is left is to somehow figure out how to make her staff..

I really really wish

..that my hair would grow obscenely long and thick overnight so that i could wear it as a towel or drape it like a scarf

..that i could find a giant cardi to walk around in backwards that hung so comfortably off my shoulders

..I could afford to buy my first ever pair of Havaianas thongs because I've heard such great things about them

..to someday soon replace my favourite Ray Ban insipred sunglasses that broke months ago

...that I could convince my boyfriend to stop cutting his hair and shaving his beard so that he could finally embrace the caveman that he is

...for endless days of soaking in the sun and not worrying about uni and enjoying the coast!

Peri Peri

Today Michael and I ordered this special meal deal from Nandos for lunch : 1 whole chicken, 1 large chips and a 1 litre bottle of coke (zero)
It was absolutely stuffing yet so so delicious, and we managed to lick the whole platter clean!
Talk about great team work!

Thank god it's Friday!

Today was my final day of prac, and at the end of my 8 hour roster I found out that I had passed!!!!! In fact all 5 of us had passed, and I am so happy because over the week those 4 strangers became 4 really great friends of mine!

This week I had breakfast at Dome on Wednesday morning with some girlfriends, and last night Michael brought over Japanese takeaway and we ate in bed whilst watching TV. Other than that, I have either been at The Anchorage 7am-3pm (3:15pm-10:15pm on Wednesday), filling out my CPAT or catching up on sleep.

Tonight I am going out for dinner and a movie (and most likely drinks) with some girlfriends to end the week on a really high note.

My favourite blogger Natalie http://natalieoffduty.blogspot.com/ wore tailored pants a while back and her post inspired me to do the same. I also bought these nude heels a couple weeks back and I have worn them out everywhere ever since!

Canon

I am lucky to have such a picture-loving-sister, who loves being infront of the camera just as much as I do. I also need to take more photos outside, as I feel my house is too dark to fully maximase my camera's capabilities. As soon as my last exam is over I am escaping into the wild.

Day 2

I took these two pictures this morning at 6:30 a.m. just before I headed out the door.
Unfortunately I still had my camera set to screen mode, and only the lamp was on in my room, so these pictures of my uniform on look blurry and muggy.
But my oh my do I love wearing it!

How now brown cow

Today was my first day of prac
My placement is at The Anchorage Aged Care Centre, North Mindarie
I wanted to take some pictures this morning of me all dressed and ready to go, but time got the best of me and it just ran out!
I am absolutely exhausted and all ready for bed, but couldn't resist a couple shots before I turn in

Princeton and Tinkerbelle

This morning it was really nice and sunny outside, and I thought I might as well soak up a little sun before starting an assignment for uni. I ended up having a play around with my camera and my pups (who aren't really pups at all, but are nearly 6 years old)

Princeton and Tinkerbelle came into my life in December 2005. My mum had heard that our neighbours’ daughters Kelpie had given birth to a whole bucket of puppies and excitedly grabbed 2 for my sister and I whilst I was still on a trip down south to Augusta with my good friend Joelle and her family.
Now they are basically my little babies.
When I first met them they were only the size of little guinea pigs.

I love how different my dogs are from each other. Princeton has coarser fur, a scruffier tail and white paw prints. Tinkerbelle is sleeker, darker and definitely naughtier! Princeton is much more interested in human companionship than running off on her own, and is obsessed with eating my mums strands of lemon grass. Tinkerbelle would rather chase a ball, harass my mums chicken or disappear into the trees (at the park).

They are the sweetest!
