simultaneously jealous for you and rapt for you, suz! glad to hear you had such a magical time. i'm learning french at uni at the moment (one of my two final subjects before graduating!) and it's making me itch to get to the country soon! various sources have told me paris is a noisy, dirty hole -- i'm happy to have been informed otherwise by your sweet self!

interesting article. how did you get to meet these guys?
maybe you're right! i think i really need to make more of my weekends... well, uni will be over in a matter of weeks and i'm looking forward to a more relaxed lifestyle then.
I think I work too much. I just sat down at the computer here at home on a Sunday afternoon, and instinctively went to open WinText, the program I write articles in at work. I've also noticed I reach to dial "0" to get an outside line when I go to make a phone call at home. And opening a magazine website or non-work email, I'm getting a compulsion to glance around and
cool, thanks for the advice on that one. mum, arlene and grandma did the flowers for sami's wedding and i think they got them from rocklea as well (but i don't know the details because i think arlene did all the research and buying, and mum and grandma just helped arrange them). i went and saw a florist in blackstone last night -- very trendy looking place once you're there, but really out-of-the-way so i'm sure her overheads aren't as high as a shoppi
matthew found it for $60 somewhere and he's going to buy it today. hooray!! yeah i really disliked cinderella story. i also hated the lizzie mcguire movie (i think i just don't like hilary duff). speaking of movies the one i'm kind of both nervous and excited about seeing soon is Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy -- i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVED the books but i'm not sure a movie could do them justice!
Happy Wednesday all It's getting chillier and hence harder to get out of bed in the mornings. This was made even worse yesterday when there was no hot water at my house! Thankfully Mum warned me before I actually subjected myself to the icy stream, but my morning routine seems incomplete without a shower. After some phone calls and a visit from the electric h
well i spose the dumb movie wasn't all in vain -- that's pretty cute of micah too. thanks for warning us about the crapness of the movie, as i had looked curiously at that in the video shop and probably would have ended up torturing myself with it. yeah, about a boy, i remembered last night. i liked all those movies -- not the bridget joneses quite as much but the other three make it worthwhile -- do you know how much it was? i just went down
i preferred the second bridget jones movie to the first actually... i think it was less depressing, and equally as funny. actually i saw a box set of dvd's at the supermarket the other day that i'm really really considering buying: both bridget joneses, love actually, notting hill and... arghh, i can't remember the fifth one. but it was something british and very cool, one of my favourites... anyway it'll come to me. adam garcia looks like nick...?
hear, hear!
Hey Mason, glad I could be of service. Thanks also for stopping by.
Hi everyone I kind of almost forgot this place existed... actually, I can't back that up, but it has been a while since a new blog graced the Teegstar homepage. Life's been busy, but cool, in case anyone's been wondering. But then I started this blog writing for myself, not others, and if I'm going to continue it I think I should maintain that attitude about
gasps... rolls on floor... clutches side.... wipes away tear.... classic.
champ, you know i'm not exactly the most left-wing, pro-union person around, but i believe student union membership should be compulsory. as you said, things like childcare and legal representation (not to mention the refecs) are important. the majority of students starting university are 17-year-olds who are not going to volunteer to pay an extra $200 a year to go to uni. if only a handful of students choose to pay, prices for these union-subsidised b
that sounds awesomely yum! i want to try it out.
i never realised the link between walmart and big w. but the stock isn't just different because of the seasons, there is a different range and it's a completely different style. american magazines' target advertisments show stuff you'd never see in australian target. i wish we had old navy and the gap! and i wish we had banana republic and express denim!!
you're seeing grease!!! that sounds like it would be so good! in bloom: nope, no walmarts! and kmart and target have the same logos but they're a bit different, and carry different stock. i think target is a bit more upmarket in the states, or maybe their advertising campaigns are just groovier.
that sounds nice! who's jess p?
yaay! and, apparently, my subeditor at work! more cake!!!!
you're making me drool here... very embarrassing at work!!
happy easter to you too!! i'm not in nz yet -- we go on saturday (rocco's birthday). i am soooooooo excited!!! i've been hanging out to go to nz ever since jules was so pumped about it back in the day. i read your post about nick's easter egg that he gave you -- wow!!! matt and i went to granma's farm for easter friday/saturday (which was just so lovely), michael taylor's birthday on saturday night and i worked easter sunday and monday. i get friday of
that's really cute! it's funny how little kids love animals so much -- my cousin came to stay when she was about 2 or 3 and fell in love with dommie (my horse). she wanted to pat him and cuddle him constantly. i reckon the dark brown cat might be a siamese as well. the harts used to have cats which were born from the same litter: one was siamese (like the ones in lady and the tramp) and the other was so brown it was nearly black. i'd never rea
i read the petition and hesitated similarly, champas. before i demand the US do something (particularly from a "i voted you in, do something about it" tone, which is untrue as i am not american) i would want to know precisely what i'm asking them to do. and at this stage i'm still not entirely sure what i'd want them to do. on a lighter hearted, less appropriate note: <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class
hey nick, thanks for making my points look good!! i think you make a very interesting statement, and i agree. the news based blogs i have read (crikey.com, for example) are thriving after years. but as you say, after a year or so whole articles on the scary, hairy cheese in the back of the fridge gets a bit old.
at the risk of sounding facetious... the spider was too high up the wall and my fellow worker was nearly wetting herself. i figured i should put them both out of their misery, but my shoe only managed to connect with the spider (the other lady in the office was too quick, and even the biggest tupperware container i have seen wouldn't have contained her)
