Stolen from putana:
From everywhere: You can learn a lot about someone by the music they listen to. Hit shuffle on your iPod or mp3 player and write down the first 20 songs. No cheating or skipping songs that are shameful. That is the fun! And frankly, a little scary...

So I've got a bit of a Red Hot Chili Peppers theme going on there yeah?  That and Doctor Who soundtrack songs... XD
So anyway pass the game along! ^_^  Who's next?

Today officially sucked.  After working one job 9-12:30 and then the other job 1-8:30 I thought I'll grab something for dinner on the way home since the oven isn't working.  (I have pizza made up ready to cook but the oven isn't working and anything else will take at least 40mins to get ready).
So I stop at the 2-4.  I buy some hot chips and a bit of fish. Go out to grab the bike and walk the rest of the way home (about a minute).  And what happens?  The fucking chips are in a paper bag and the bag just rips completely open and my chips are on the ground.  bye bye dinner... T_T  *sigh*  I do not have the energy to deal with anything right now.  I ate my fish.  I'm still hungry.  I am not making fucking bacon sandwiches again.  Options?  ...another sandwich...ooooo!  I have bagels!  I will eat bagels with cream cheese and jam!  Fuck you chips!  I have BAGELS! HA!  ...I hope they're not needing to be toasted...I only brought them a day ago... T_T Food...food...food....

Soooo.... $966 dollars and about a million fillings later... I am reminded why I don't like going to the dentist. T_T  After enduring the pain on Friday for the right side of my mouth I went back today for the left side.  The fillings themselves were bad enough but the clean and polish at the end?  TORTURE!  Like seriously the guy *knew* I am a total baby and yet he still attacked me when doing the cleaning thing.  When he told me to do the whole rinse and spit it at the end it was vile - spitting out blood should only be for when you're really ill and stuff like that. EWWWWWWWWWW!!!
And also a big EWWWWWWWW for having a numb mouth.  I went to the dentist at 2pm and only now 7 hours later has the anaesthetic finally worn off...which of course means that I bit the inside of my cheek when I was eating ;_;  -100 points to having to go to the dentist. Also OMS my jaw is aching!  It was only the right side but after today it's both sides.  Eating tea was not terribly fun...

Rendering video is annoying.  14 minutes footage = 7.5 hours rendering time.  Yes that is right. Seven and a half hours.  I could probably reboot my computer and it'd be a bit shorter but not by much.  On Sunday it took about 3 or so hours to render 8 minutes of footage.  At least M won't expect her wedding DVD the same week as the wedding, unlike some people who have no concept of how long it actually takes.  I will have to say to T tomorrow how long it took so perhaps she can get it why I couldn't finish the DVD last week (that and I only have a small amount of the day that I'm not working already in and do have to do other stuff too!)

I'm sure there was a bunch of other stuff that I was going to post about but the dentist and DVD rant took precedent... XDDD

Hey hey hey!  So finally the dress designs that I've been meaning to post.  Photos are kinda bad thou...

( Awesomeness this way... )
And I have picked up another part time job!  10 hours a week in the mornings mon-fri working as a Teacher's Aide at a primary school.  I will be working mainly with a really cute little girl who is five and has a cochlear implant.
That starts this Monday from 9 to 12:30 then rush over to Tech from 1 to 3.  Then on Wed, Thurs and Fri I also have work 5pm to 1:30am.  I am going to die on Wed and Thurs... (Friday has no Tech, but instead I have my cleaning job for 2 hours... ;_; )

So I still don't have my skirt back but I have photo's of it up to a really close to finished point so here they are ^_^
( Skirt pics ^^ )

( A pattern and a block~ )

Next post is going to be with some designs I'm going to be making soon(-ish).  They're so cool!  Must finish other stuff first thou...

So it's winter here but I'm making summer dresses... *is crazy*



          

Next is the orange shirt-dress and a blue with white polka dot dress.  Slightly more winter appropriate. ^_^

I have been a busy little bee lately.  Class is getting more interesting as we cut out the polar fleece jacket on Thursday and will get to start sewing on Monday.  Yay!  I took photos of the cutting process of the class:

This is laying out the pattern blocks and drawing around them with chalk.  The random objects are to hold the fabric and pattern from moving.


starting the cutting process and another piece (the arm I believe) nearly completely cut out.
 

I will take photos on Monday of the individual pieces and what the pattern says it should look like finished. ^_^

Well in other excitement.
Last week's nails were pretty cute:

I don't have a photo of my nails at the moment but on Saturday (the day before my birthday!) I went and got my nails done at a salon with acrylics.  They look pretty funky.  I'll take a photo soon-ish... XDD

putana is very naughty for getting me caught up in watching Supernatural.  I have devoured the first 5 seasons and am up to the sixth which I will catch up with soon-ish. I think Cas is kick arse.  Definitely my fav character.  Although I got her hooked on Criminal Minds so I guess it's a bit of a fair trade... XDDD

I have applied with some other places in town and hopefully I'll here back and get some other work so I can say "fuck you" to my current job.  That would be OMS brilliant.

Those that are in Japan - I hope you are all safe!  I haven't heard back from Y-chan yet and I know she's in Osaka but her brother and his wife and their two gorgeous kids live in Tokyo.  Be safe!
unjaundiced keep safe and away from the tsunami. Don't try stealing a waka/surfboard/yacht/sailboat/arc to make your way to NZ. It just wouldn't be your best idea... XD

Right I'm sure that there was more I was going to blah blah on about here but can't remember what...oh yeah!  The boring woman from the first aid course.  She was such an opinionated freak that thought she knew best about everything.  Such an annoying woman. It didn't help that I had *such* a headache today that I was nearly falling asleep in class today.  It was soooooo boring thou too!!!

Boohoo I have work tomorrow and Sunday.  I mean it's good that I've got work which means money to save but otherwise I can't really be arsed. *sigh*

And I still haven't heard from my professor...I need to know whether or not I can write the essay on the topic I want to.  Get back to me already!!! D:

Well time to sign off and get to sleep.  Earth don't fall apart any more while I'm asleep 'kay thanx.
