music to my ears

today i explored my garden with my mum. i forgot how much my mum loves her garden. and its wonderful to watch. well i tried to help a little, but i kinda just stood back and watched. i found flowers that remind me of my nan's wonderful garden, which made me a little sad, but made me so happy at the same time. today was also filled with late night, early morning chats about my family, stories and other wonderful memories..it was simply great.i still feel my room kinda sucks at the moment. i am STILL trying to sort all my stuff out, and make my room look lovely! but its not working...hmmm. its rather annoying...but it will be sorted out.yesterday i went to a music festival with lovely friends! the rain held off until about half 3. rain rain, why does it always rain!??!?the highlights of the day included seeing Gary Numan, Ash and Feeder. also lots of smaller bands too! i always love watching new bands that have just started, they are always raw and full of amazing talent.i am pages away from finishing my book....so i now need a new book. any ideas what could be my next book?

goodbye to the city i learnt to love

so it was time to say farewell to the city i have grown to love so much. ah man, it annoys me so much that i have to leave my wonderful flat full of memories, with my even more wonderful friends, who will be my life long friends for the rest of my life.
ah i didn't like to see my room so empty. it have recently been filled with all my stuff, photos and pictures stuck to the walls, i will miss it so much. i loved the view out of my window, looking out over into town, which i am sure you have seen in other posts. i wish uni didn't have to end, and that i did not have to move back home. but before i moved back home, we had the graduation ball, which was lots of fun. i went with my flatmates, but found many of my course friends out. lots of photos were taken. at the ball, feeder, Calvin Harris and pendulum played. it was amazing. i was right at the front, which was even more amazing.now that i am at home, i have so much stuff to sort out. i need to fit all my uni room stuff into my room....and that is going to take some time. plus i need to find a job. aaah how annoying!!! i will miss my flatmates so much, we all wrote each other goodbye letters, mine are beautiful, and i will treasure them forever.

through the window

so i am back at uni!! and i had some wonderful post waiting for me. thank you very much!!! :)
its odd being back in my room..with my bits and bobs and trying to get on with lots of work. i will hopefully have some photos very soon.
i went to the cattle market very early this morning, in search of some wonderful finds. and i did find some treats. :) i am currently on the look out for lots of different plates. any odd, cool, pretty, weird plates. all i can imagine is having a collection of all different plates and when friends come round they don't know what plate they will get to eat off of..he he. i also found an old video camera, which is amazing. and some sheets of music..which i like even more because they have been drawn on and added to. i am in love with old things.....oh i also have some 'hello my name is...' stickers!!!!!! eek.

it's opener there, in the wide open air.

i was tagged by the beautiful The tea drinking english rose to do the 'show your heart tag'...with as much creativity as you can muster, show your heart in: 1 picture, 1 poem, 1 song or piece of music, 1 phrase or quote, 1 piece of clothing, 1 place and (just for fun) 1 Disney princess.
picture:
(my garden state drawings)
poem:
Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.

You'll look up and down streets. Look 'em over with care.
About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there."

With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.
And you may not find any your want to go down.
In that case, of course you'll head straight out of town.

It's opener there
in the wide open air.

(a small section from Oh, The Places You'll Go!- Dr Seuss.)
song or piece of music: Cathedrals- Jars of Clay, its the only song that has ever brought me to tears.
quote: "You got to hear this one song, it will change your life."- Sam, Garden State.
