I've been reminiscing about last year lately... When all of my friends were around and we were never out of contact. Heck all of us were on Facebook.
I'm really missing my friends lately.. Yea I have the love of my life and my beautiful little girl but I miss having my friends around too! We used to hang out almost every single day! We'd go shopping, go to an el cheapo lunch cause we couldn't afford anything else.. We'd miraculously have money to buy things for ourselves and we went clubbing on a regular basis on a budget, cause all we really wanted to do was dance all night long.
One of my amazing friends has such a beautiful family happening in her life and I'm so happy to see her so happy too! She's almost always replying back to my messages on Facebook and in txt that we end up txting for hours! And about random stuff half the time too!!! I'm missing you so much Hun, you don't know how much I'd kill just to go out fake wedding dress hunting with you again lmao!!! Back when we were looking forward to getting an engagement ring on our fingers and hadn't yet gotten it! We so totally knew it was going to happen with the boys we were with! It was so much fun getting up to mischief with you and I hope next year that, that is something we can wok toward!!! I'm missing you so much! Mwa!! Xox (or should I say cox) lmao!
Another of my friends I'm missing is one that I am so close to. One who knows so much about me and me about him. Some things I think would have been better to be left 'in the closet' than said out loud to me... *ahem* yes there is such thing as WAYYYYYYY too much information!! We used to see each other every single day! Without fail!! And I'd annoy the crap out of you waking you up before your alarm is anywhere near the time you set it to! We'd go shopping with whatever little money we had and we'd and we'd miraculously come up with more money in some way! We went shopping so often and clubbing every second weekend without fail! Even when we missed the train we'd find another way! Just so we could go and dance at our fave club!! I don't know how but you forced me to grow up and become so much more mature about things and I don't remember that happening at all!! I'm missing you so much babe that you don't understand. I want you back on Facebook so I can at least have an alternate way of contacting you, and it'd be nice if you replied to messages as often as you used to. Miss you Hun! Xox <3
My other amazing friends are my sisters... My real blood sister and the one friend I've known for so very long that we deemed to be our sister! Plus she looks like us! Lol! I love you both so much!!! And I really wouldn't know what to do with myself if I didn't have you both!
On that note I really don't know what I'd do without anyone I've mentioned in this blog! I mean honestly I'd be in hell if I had never met you lot!
I'm missing you all so very much. My sisters not so much lol! Since I see you guys fairly often! I'm beside myself not knowing how to get us to go out more often!! I'm dying to have a drunken night out even if its just at mounties?! Here's hoping that I see you soon.
Sorry if this post doesn't make much sense... It's late, I'm starting to feel sleepy, and I'm just wishing to see my friends more often!
A blog of what is in my head at the time of writing... A chance for me to get things out of my head in a creative way other than talking to people, cause talking to people isn't the normal thing to do? ...Cause I'm Cool Like That...

Down in the Dumps and Yet Excited.
Hi Hi all,
I haven't had much of a chance to write on here lately, with so much happening I've been soooo busy! I'm loving my new job so much that I'd rather be at work when I'm sick than at home resting. Honestly I'm ecstatic that I'm in the industry I love again! Oh how I've missed thee Event Industry!
Besides working I've been wedding and Birthday planning... Wedding plans are pretty much at the top of the priorities list but this month has been 2nd Birthday party plans... It's annoying though that I can't organise everything in advance for her party though unlike weddings.
So my daughter's 2nd Birthday Party is going to be a Fairy Princess & Lost Boys Dress up Party! I'm so excited I love birthday parties for kids so much that I was a children's entertainer for some time after high school. I even used to make cakes for family and friends for their little ones or brothers/sisters. I really enjoy it to be honest...
So in regards to my gorgeous little girl's birthday I've decided to try and keep it as healthy as possible, with a few exceptions of course...
Party Bags
Just using simple bags bought from the local major shopping centre to prevent too much work. Filling them with small tubs of play dough, a small handful of lollies (need a few of these at least) Some mini slinkies, bubbles, bracelets and fairy wands.. There are more girls than boys at this party so should be understandable right?
Special Gifts
So each child will be getting a ribbon wand as you would have seen in my previous blog post and I'm hoping to be well enough to sew some peter pan hats Inspiration and thanks to sew in harmony.
Games & Things to do
So our backyard is sooooooooo tiny we wouldn't be able to fit 5 children let alone parents too?! So we've opted for the 'Booking a picnic location' at a park. The location we've acquired is right nest to the playground too so that in itself is something for the kids to do. We have booked a facepainter for 2 or so hours as my daughter absolutely loved getting her face painted earlier in the year. I'm hoping to buy a pullstring pinata soon so they can each do that too. As most of the children will be around the age of two there isn't many games they can really play without getting easilly bored so playground was a must.
Decorations
Decoration wise, I will be pulling the ribbon wands open to make them flow through the breeze (hopefully) to decorate the area before each child will take them away. We are getting a bubble machine too which is exciting especially when kids that age love bubbles. Oh yes and it isn't a party without helium balloons so those will be just as present as the other things.
Food
So on the food front I was thinking BBQ something easy that all the kids and parents will love. Some cordials for the kids or poppers, and soft drinks for parents of course with tonnes of water. As snacks I will be making little cupcakes with rainbow belt lollies over the top making them look like a rainbow on top of the cupcake. I can't remember who showed these to me or where I saw them but thank you for such an inspiring idea! I also saw this post by my bride story in regards to a fruit and veggie bar! I thought it was brilliant and since it's spring down here I thought fruit is a definite winner with 2 year olds I cannot begin to explain my daughter's love of fruit and veggies so when I saw this I knew it was a burst of inspiration so thank you my bride story for such an amazing idea!
Cake
The inspiration for the cake came from no other but Wilton I am really looking forward to giving this a try I am so excited to be making my princess a castle for her birthday cake! Wish me luck!
Now to the reason why I am down in the dumps... I've been bed ridden for almost a week now. I am dying to get back to work I miss it... It turns out that I need a CT Scan of my back/neck as I may have slipped a disc in my spine or moved my facet joint in my spine. I am so over being in pain... And the above was a welcome escape for a little while. And it's all good to JUST be suffering in pain but to have a head cold as well where every cough turns into murder is not fun. I have been having coughing fits and everything and I am just sick and tired of having the pain in my neck, back, shoulder, arm and thumb. I can barely move and sleeping is non existent... I'm at the point where I just want them to fix me already. I have too much that I need to do and this unable to move and constant pain is not fair. Each day I think maybe I should just check myself into the hospital at least then they'd be able to help me sleep and get better.
Not even the pain meds are helping... They clear my headache pretty quick but apart from that I am still suffering. I wish it would just go away I am so over it. At least the above is something to look forward to, that is if I'm better enough to actually finish it.
Anyways I'm off. going to try and get out of this chair... And walk hopefully it'll be over with soon.
In pain, suffering and yet in fairly good spirits anyway.

Of Ribbon Wands and Birthday Parties
So my little girl turns 2 in September and me being the event
organiser/crazy person I've started organising everything early. In my
eyes earlier the better as you never know what could happen should you
leave things to the last minute.
We've decided on a Fairy Princess and Lost Boys Theme, I was torn since I have such a teenie tiny backyard so I've had to go all out and hire a location at the park. It was a half decent price to be honest and I'm quite happy we have the park for the entire day too So from morning when it opens to the afternoon when it closes so it will give us plenty of time to work everything out.
I think a few people think I'm insane organising a 2 year old's birthday party 2 - 3 months in advance, but being in the event industry I don't see the harm! Not only am I organising her birthday but a wedding for early next year too! I think it's in my nature... I've decided no set games... we'll have a face painter, lots of bubbles been blown from a bubble machine, a pull String pinata, Balloons, Peter Pan Hats, and ribbon wands. The last two hand made =)
So far I've got the wands complete. They are quite easy to make and not too expensive... Plus it's a good party bag gift considering Lollies will equal hyper 2 year olds which I don't think I could handle...
Once I've worked out the Peter Pan Hats with some help of hopefully another wonderful Young mum I will be able to show the world those too! Wish me luck!
I'm really relieved that I have a lot of my daughter's birthday party complete... I mean imagine how insanely stressed I'd be should I have left everything to the last minute right?

She did do a wee in the toilet this morning and I am so proud of her!!
Tomorrow is pancake Saturday. And the day we go to put a deposit on our wedding rings! I'd love to go into decorative events and see what they can quote us for the reception design!!
Sunday we're off to a photoshoot for the princess with rock your baby! The gorgeous little dark haired girl in cream and black on their main shopping page is my little girl!!
After the elusive photoshoot I will be off to pay more to my wedding dress possibly wear it and then get me measured up again so they can order my gorgeous gown!
Such a long crazy and busy weekend ahead of us and I'm looking forward to it!! Next weekend though is the biggest excitement though!!! It's my birthday!!!!
A quarter of a century old and celebrating cause statistics state that the more birthdays you happen to have the longer you live!!!
Anyways I'm off to oogle the group of hard kunt guys with brand name man bags and laugh with my ever loving fiancé!

NICKI MINAJ!
I saw Nicki Minaj last night!! Got trampled on in the moshpit and woulda been right at the front since I had a VIP upgrade but was a good friend and waited! =D
The show was awesome! Nicki was beautifully gorgeous and as I would have imagined she'd be! Afterwards as a VIP upgrader I got to meet Nicki! I adore her so much! Her songs are amazing and if you listen closely all of her songs have a deeper meaning!
I was a little disappointed when her manager was being horrible we could only choose one thing to be signed and we couldn't even go to her while she signed it! I handed my VIP laminate across and the signing process seemed to be so rushed that the holographic side of my laminate was signed and rubbed off. I was so upset.
Nicki ended up foiling their plans though when she opened the blinds and window to where we were sitting and called out to us! The security guy called back saying they were bringing us in little groups when she said NO I want all of my barbz in here! She even blew me a kiss! =D
I told her all about my little princess loving her songs and dancing to starships in the car! She was absolutely elevated by the idea and said "Bless her soul! Give her kisses from me!" We took a photo and then I asked her to sign my boob Yeap got my boob signed! I mean I had my laminate signed and they wouldn't resign anything so what else was I gonna do?! I have a whole pile of pics of my signed chest =D I'll upload soon hehehe
All in all I had such an amazing night! I only wish her manager wasn't so crude! Nicki though was an amazingly beautiful soul and I wish her all the best with her career! LOVE YOU NICKI MINAJ!
Love
