helloooooo helloooooo, it's been a while

so, mum has been bugging me (hi mum!) to update my blog. my computer seems to crash everytime i try to update it with photos, they don't want to be loaded... so let's see what i end up with this time.

it's a friday night and i am just watching gordon ramsay on the tv... mouth watering. i went to a body combat class at the gym, lots of fun and so am now bumming on the couch thinking about what sort of things i should be doing... the washing is in... my room is almost tidy and i am love love loving my house.

can't wait for tomorrow... it will be my first time to the walkabout since i have lived around the corner from it.. very exciting. and will be making sushi with some friends before i go out... yay!

ok, i have probably said this before, but i am aware i overuse 3 dots, but that is fine, i love them, hopefully you don't have an issue with that... haha.

ummm, my photos go backwards, starting with schelle and my christmas and new years adventures, and then back... i spose you have to just scroll down to see what else is there. it will probably be really badly set out, but please just deal with it.

i haven't put up photos from the spicegirls concert, but i only went there on wednesday night, so they are still in my camera.

enjoy!
love you all
