I feel like the biggest idiot in the world right now!! Let's start from the beginning shall we?!
Yesterday began as a seemingly normal day. I woke up 15 minutes late (the alarm clock had set itself for 8pm, not am) so I rush through my morning routine. I arrive at Uni 10 minutes ahead of schedule (I didn't speed at all...ok, so maybe a little... ok, so I sped the entire way to Uni!) I arrive in the lecture theatre and proceed to have the usual chat to some of my friends that are taking the same class. The lecturer walks in and has a bit of a chat to some people abou thte assignment coming up and then proceeds to begin with the lecture. I diligently begin my note taking, as per usual, and listen to the questions popping up about different things. We get to half way through the lecture and have a 10 minute break.
I step outside the lecture theatre to have a drink of water and a stretch (those chairs really aren't comfortable at all!) Like I said, a completely ordinary seeming day!
I walked back into the lecture theatre with my friends and begain making my way down the steps and back to my seat. And that is when it happened. Bang. (Well it was actually more of a twist, crunch, crack and thud)
I miss-judged a step. I twisted my ankle. I sat down in the closest seat possible because I was in shock. I put my head between my legs as I began to feel like I was going to pass out. I woke a few moments later to find that my head was now resting ont he seat in front of me. And that is when the pain hit.
OH. MY. GOODNESS.! It was like a had just been stabbed in the ankle with a fishing knife! I picked up my books and got myself out of the lecture theatre. There is a couch just outside the lecture theatre (literally just outside the door) I sat down on the couch along with 5 of my friends. I was ok for a while and told them to go back into the lecture because it was just about to start again. I finally got them all to go back in (I didn't want them to see me cry (pathetic I know, but I had just rolled my ankle and I was a little embarassed!)). I got out my phone and began to text my mother to come and pick me up, that is when my vision began to get blurry again and the ringing in my ears started. I passed out again. Only this time I woke up on the floor. I was super confused when I woke up.
I found my phone again and sent mum the message I had been trying to write before. She didn't respond so I sent a message to my sister on facebook (she is 30 years old and facebooks more than I do! (She had the day off of work because she is sick)) She was with my mum and they came and picked me up! We went to the hospital and I spent the rest of the day in the waiting room, x-ray room and emergency room!
I didn't break anything, which I am extremely thankful for, but the pain is just about killing me! And my ankle is the size of a grapefruit! (I am not kidding either, my sister got a grapefruit yesterday and measured it! my ankle came up a 2 milimeters smaller in circumference!)

Well that was unexpected...
So, Michael* came over last night. He was a little upset. He didn't really say much, and he was really calm! REALLY calm! I was a little worried when he showed up. I was expecting him to be angry, not like extreme angry, but upset angry. But he wasn't. We just sat on the couch and watched some movies. I asked about what had happened with Allison*. He said that he had asked her about what she said, she admitted everything. He was really angry with her. He had left her sitting in a cafe alone! that is how angry he was. (he did explain to her that we are really close because we are best friends before he left) She asked him to choose between her and me, and he said that he never would. So, he left her at the cafe... by herself. I did feel a little bit for her (no one wants to be left alone in a cafe). He refused to talk about it after that. I just let it go, he isn't a person who responds well to being pushed. He will talk in his own time.
After he told me what happened we just sat there for a while. We watched another movie and didn't talk much.
When he left he seemed ok.
He called this morning to ask if he could come over again tonight. We are having Fish and Chips and then watching Criminal Minds. I think he is trying to keep himself busy. When I asked what he was doing today he listed a whole heap of things. He isn't usually a person who is very busy (ever).
So what happened was really unexpected! I was not thinking he would be so calm, not at all! But I am happy that I still have my best friend, relatively in-tact.

Winter....
Winter is my favourite season. It rains in winter, and I think that is why I love it so. Rain is one of a few of my favourite things (cue The Sound of Mucic "These are a few of my favourite things...")
Why winter, you might ask? Well, winter is the only time of year it is acceptable to stay in bed until all hours because it is cold, Winter means rain; rain so heavy that your clothing clings to your body like it is holding on for dear life, Winter is the time when you can sit in front of a fire with a book and a blanket. Winter is the only time of year that the weather does not effect me. I like it cold. Perhaps that is why I like the rain? (I swear in a previous life I was a polar bear or something! Maybe a penguin!?)
Winter: my favourite season, my favourite weather, and my favourite time passing activity, reading.
Rain. I love rain. It's raining as I type. I can hear it on the roof. (I am struggling to sit here any longer, I want to be outside in the rain)

Why I could just...GAH!
Have you ever had one of those nights where everything just goes wrong? So, I need to ellaborate a little!
My best friend has just started seeing this girl. That's fine, girlfriends are something I often meet! seriously, every month he is introducing another one! But this one is different. And I don't mean different in a good way. Sure, there have been attempts in the past, but nothing like this.
Michael* and I have been best friends for ages! as long as I can remember! We talk about everything! LITERALLY! So you can imagine my slight worry when he didn't call me for about a week. So, I finally get fed up after leaving a dozen messages and go over to his place! (Again, this is nothing unusual (everything, remember)) I knock on the door and his dad answers (he still lives at home). He smiles as usual and welcomes me in. He calls up the stairs for Michael*. A few moments later Michael* comes down and smiles as if the week just passed without any communication hadn't happened! I was like "OK, WTF!?!?!"
We sit down and start talking when I hear a "Michael?"* come down the stairs. The smile which had been on his face for a while now vanished. Again I was like "OK, WTF?!?!?!?" He walked over to the stairs and waited. A girl came down, she was admittedly very attractive. Michael* introduced us and she sat down on the couch opposite mine. Michael* said he had tohelp his dad int he kitchen and walked into the other room. The first words this girl said to me were (I kid you not) "So you are the bitch who wants my boyfriend?" (you can imagine my face! (meanwhile in my head a little voice is going "Excuse me??? Excuse me?! You did not just say that to my face!"))
I walked into the kitchen without saying anything to, lets call her Allison. I walked into the kitchen without sayong anything to Allison and told Michael* that I had to go. (I didn't want to be there anymore!) Michael* was a little confused, I could understand why. I said goodnight to his dad and walked out the back door. (A coward I know!) Michael* walked me down the drive to my car (the one mentioned in the last post (oh I love that car))
I drove away, whith Michael* still looking rather confused.
I got home and sat staring at the wall for a while. My phone rang, it was Michael*, but I couldn't answer it.
He sent me a text message asking if I was ok. I don't know if he knows what she said or if he was just trying to figure out why I left...?
Anyway, I am now sitting here staring at my computer screen. It has taken me a rather long time to write this. in fact, it has taken over an hour!

Oh the fastness of it all!!
I went for a drive in my car today. I haven't been for a drive in a while. Yes, I drive my car to and from University, but other than that, I haven't really been using it lately, that is until today!
I was sitting on the couch watching some television, when I glanced out the window and spotted my car sitting outside. I was thinking about the last time I drove my car when my mother rang and reminded me of an appointment I had in town in 2 hours time. I took that as a bit of a sign. I only live 15 minutes away from the edge of town, so I didn't really need to leave yet. I grabbed my keys and headed out to my vehicle. Oh how I had missed actually seeing the car. Sure, I look at it everyday, but I didn't really see it.
I unlocked my car and it beeped twice at me, almost joyful. I think it knew what was coming next.
I had forgotten just how fast my vehicle went. I mean, it's not a Lamborghini Gallardo, but it goes fast enough for me.
As I was driving, thinking about nothing in particular and trying to decide on what shoes I was going to wear tomorrow, My phone started buzzing away. I pulled over and answered. (It was my mother reminding me that my appointment was in half an hour)
I drove to my appointment rather happy that I had driven my car. (And also rather happy that I hadn't been pulled over for speeding) :)

oh, p.s. this is what my car looks like! The only difference between this one and mine are the rims. mine has 17" black rims with a chrome lip! :) (and before the questions start, the purple neons are coming soon! ;) I am kidding....maybe....)

THE car. (and, no, the capitals are not a mistake)
THE car of my dreams, THE car I will one day own, THE car that I will love and cherish more than my current boyfriend loves and cherishes his pride and joy (his car is wonderful, but this post isn't about him). THE car which I can not afford right now, but will be able to afford in the future :)
What is THE car I hear you ask? well, I will get to that.
THE car of my dreams is not what you would expect from me. You would think a red sports convertable of some sort? well, no, you would be wrong. Maybe a new flashy Mercedes or BMW? wrong again. Or perhaps even a little Japanese peice similar to the ones on Fast and Furious (all versions included). Well, I wouldn't mind one of those, and I am currently driving a slightly modified 1997 Toyota Celica, but moving on. NO, none of these options are what I am talking about!!
THE car of my dreams, THE one car that I will own for a lifetime, after I can afford to buy it and possibly have to restore it if I can't find one in a good enough condition, is.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
A 1967 Chevrolet Impala 4-door sedan. Yes, you read right. A 1967 Chevrolet Impala. Why the 1967 you may ask, why not the 1970, or even the 1968?? Well, the answer: I just don't like them as much!

Hoping and Waiting!
Today I went for an interview with a company (can't name names) about a permanent modelling position for one of their fashion lines to be released next year!!!! Needless to say, I am a little excited!!! But I am also very nervous! It is not an overly big deal if I don't get the position, I do enjoy the freedom of doing work randomly and at my will, but this would be an amazing oportunity! WOW! haha my nerves are through the roof at the moment! :D
