Back again after a long break

Back again after a VERY long break. Here is an update- am no-longer a pizza delivery girl (phew) am still at uni (with 6 months to go). Have been obsessing over the new* Kangoo Jump boots since I saw them in a back issue of Cosmopolitan. Seems the Kardashians have done well promoting these babies! They look like so much fun. Apparently its like running on a trampoline and makes fitness fun. Kangoo Jumps website does however make some pretty weird claims like "KJ Boots give you a face lift" etc. Been saving for these boots for a month now and have just ordered some online. I wonder if this year I can KEEP my newyears resolution of getting back into all of my old clothes- and getting fit.

Speaking of clothes I found the coolest website to organise your closet, much akin to the one Cher uses in the movie Clueless. The only downside is that you need the time to take photos of all of the clothes in your wardrobe,

Check it out at http://www.mycloset.com/
 

I highly recommend it- I personally have a bulging wardrobe but typically have nothing to wear. This website really helps you to develop your own sence of style (as well as weeding out things that arent so glam in your closet) You are able to categorise your clothes, create a wish list and put together outfits. You can also set your account so that others can see your outfit compilations and get their fashion input. So far I have uploaded ALL of my tops, today I am about to upload my jeans and pants. It is a little frustrating at the moment thought because as stated in my profile- alot of my clothes dont fit at the moment. I need to lose about 5-7 kilos : (


Also I have discovered the "perfect" shoes for waitressing (nursing/ basically for anyone who is on their feet for a long period of time). Dansko clogs. These clogs are not your average run of the mill, they are functional AND stylish. They help re-build the arches of your feet, as when you are wearing them your toes are forced to grip the foot-bed engaging otherwise rarely used muscles in your feet. They fully support your heels and exercise your legs (think of fit-flops or shape-ups, the originals with such features were the humble clogs!) Another bonus is that clogs are IN at the moment!

Simply search for them in google. Personally I have found the best range and prices for these on ebay.

the driver from "dual" has a commodore wagon now!

Last night was good, as a shift can be that is. Though the traffic was damn aweful and speed camera's were going off everywhere! But really- i cant afford a speeding fine so i think ill stay at the limit just in case- not a revenue raiser my ass! Pulled out from a side street last night and 'the slug' got moving after a good few seconds. The driver behind me proceeded to drive up less than a meter behind me. Ok, could either brake and get in an accident just to teach this particular rev head a lesson or- hazerd lights on. Still there, I turn off........still there, and the ba%$tard follows me almost to my del house!! Other than that it was a good night- that and i was thankful that he wasnt driving a damn truck! Have enough trouble overtaking them on a highway. Also discovered that i hate meat pizza's, just wrong. And that when you get home late you REALLY cant be bothered eating anything more than half a can of beans. Weird yes. So rose early this morning and need a little cuture so instead of flicking on video hits or rage Im off to one of our various makets on no particular mission. Also got a really cool recipe book yesterday called the lunchbox bible- dreaming of the day when I have the time and a fitting job to make such glamerous recipes, rather than a leftover slice of meat pizza- yuk.

First posting after a very long and boring day

I am shocked to discover that the GPS maps i have intended to download cost an absolute fortune this morning before being whisked to work. This is a particular pain in the ass, all because of new street names and street numbers poping up around the town. That, and i am not one for maps at all - or mud maps, or directions of any kind come to think of it! I suppose i created this blog because well, im bored between split shifts and decided it would be fun to tell you all- or nobody (if no one reads it) about my life at the moment.
In saying that i do need to get back to the shop, i have some new terriably girly CD's this week and have subsequently blown most of my budget. So you will see me, singing along with my car smelling of stale pizza anytime soon i imagine.
