1) Second day of my holidays today and I took my niece and nephew to see Kung Fu Panda. It was kind of cute. Not a must-rush-out-and-buy-on-DVD type movie but it made me laugh and the kids enjoyed it.
2) I got my haircut this evening and thought I'd take a picture to share because it's never going to look like this again. It's always so shiny when I leave the hairdressers and I have no idea how I'm going to go when I get around to drying it tomorrow morning.

While she cut my hair, my hairdresser and I were chatting away about life, movies, TV etc.
Hairdresser A: What's that other show you really like? You told me about it. The one with the two brothers?
Me: Supernatural.
Hairdresser A: Yeah, that's the one. I can't watch that. It's too scary.
Me: It's not THAT scary. Hey, I got to meet one of them.
Hairdresser A: What? Really? (to another hairdresser) Did you hear that? She met one of the boys from Supernatural.
Hairdresser B: Really? Which one? *is excited*
Me: Jared Padalecki. Sam.
Hairdresser B: *squeals* What's he like? Is he nice?
Me: *gushes about Jared Padalecki - probably more than necessary*
Hairdresser B: I heard Dean is gay.
Me: o_O
Me: The actor who plays Dean?
Hairdresser B: Yeah.
Me: *laughs*
Hairdresser A: Is he?
Me: *laughs some more* No. Well, umm, he hasn't 'come out'.
Poor Jensen Ackles. His sexuality is even the subject of gossip in a small suburban hair salon in Melbourne, Australia.
3) Is it just me or is it meme season? Anyway, I've been stockpiling the ones going around and here's one to get me started.

4) Oooh, I GOT X-FILES TICKETS!!! \O/
Lisa and I are going to a 7pm screening on Wednesday the 23rd July. Mulder and Scully. Back together. On the big screen. *sigh* And it's only 13 sleeps.
5) I'm watching Smallville ep1x18. It has bees in it. Lots of bees. I wonder if Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum talk about these bees as much as Jensen Ackles talks about the bees from 'Bugs'...
6) And because I thought this was fairly accurate:

3) Is it just me or is it meme season? Anyway, I've been stockpiling the ones going around and here's one to get me started.

- Clockwise from top
- My compact digital camera with Crumpler camera case.
- Assorted Ipod and digital camera leads, and USB drives. You never know when you are going to need 6GB of portable storage.
- My shiny new iPod Classic with Crumpler iPod case.
- Assorted receipts (39.62 litres of petrol at $1.56 per litre, Cheezals, Pepsi Max and Smallville Season Two DVD), movie tickets (Indiana Jones, Get Smart and Kung Fu Panda and an expired train ticket.
- My glasses. They help me see things a lot clearer but for some reason, I hardly ever wear them.
- My sunglasses. I bought these from some dude in Times Square with my last US$13. I only had 19 cents left in my pocket but I had new sunglasses! \O/
- My Moleskin Weekly Notebook. Usually it's a lot more colourful than this, but I haven't had much time to get the coloured pencils out to pretty this week up.
- Assorted pens and markers.
- My mobile phone - an i-mate Ultimate 8502.
- My Crumpler wallet and Kikki-K coin purse.
- Assorted stuffs - Body Shop Lip Balm (Cool Mint), Nivea Creme & Lip Balm, Nurofen, hand santitiser (my mum, sister and niece are turning me into a germ-a-phobe) and Calgon Perfect Bliss body mist (one of many bottles carried back from the USA because you can't buy it in Australia *pout*)
- Melbourne Storm 2008 Membership (season ticket) with Social Club Token. (Not sure why that's in my purse as I don't usually carry it around with me)
4) Oooh, I GOT X-FILES TICKETS!!! \O/
Lisa and I are going to a 7pm screening on Wednesday the 23rd July. Mulder and Scully. Back together. On the big screen. *sigh* And it's only 13 sleeps.

You Are Oscar the Grouch |
![]() Grumpy and grouchy, you aren't just pessimistic. You revel in your pessimism. You are usually feeling: Unhappy. Unless it's rainy outside, and even then you know the foul weather won't last. You are famous for: Being mean yet lovable. And you hate the lovable part. How you life your life: As a slob. But it's not repelling as many people as you'd like! |

lovely hair but SO SHORT OMFG! i'd spazz out then again my hair is almost to the middle of my back right now so... lol
From:
no subject
Thank you. It is very short but it wasn't all that long to start with. I'll probably freak out a little tomorrow when I go to wash it and find that it's not there! ;)
From:
no subject
when i cut my hair even a little below my shoulders i spazz out lol. but it's because i tramatized myself when i was 5 and cut my own hair because my "grandma" (not really a grandma but more of a grandma to me than my real grandma) told me one day that my bangs were in my eyes and she couldn't see my big beautiful brown eyes! so i went home and chopped my bangs but went too far back and cut it so bad that it had to be like chin level and oh epic i was tramatized. all my tramatizations come from when i was 5 lol!!

I couldn't agree more with you about love is love. A person should be free to love whoever they want to. :)
Oh, dear. Hair trauma when you were only five? That's terrible! *lol*

2. Your hair looks ADORABLE! And poor Jensen... I'm so jealous you met Jared. *dies*
3. This meme looks SO fun! I'm totally doing it when I get home, don't want to get busted for it at work! *g*
4. I haven't seen any of the X-Files yet *hides*
5. Bees... ack! I bet not, Jensen does LOVE to talk about those bees!
From:
no subject
2) Thanks :)
3) Nope, it's probably not a good idea to lay the contents of your bag out on your desk at work and start snapping pictures. People might get a bit suspicious as to whether or not you are actually working ;)
4) No X-Files? At all? Not a single episode? Oh, boy. I'd love to be in your place and watch it all for the first time again. *sigh*
5) He really does. I haven't heard a reference to the story for a couple of months now. Lucky there are some Cons coming up. No doubt, we'll hear all about them again. Jensen & The Bees = ♥

Question: Does Rumor Control consider JA's girlfriend a "beard" or something? Just curious.
3. And here I thought I was one of the only people ever to carry around my camera, cords, extra battery, memory cards, etc. You never know what you might need to take pictures/videos of.
4. Ohh lucky! I may just try digging up enough change to see the movie at the theatre.
5. Oh, bees. I thought about JA-and-the-bees while I was mowing the lawn yesterday. Lots of bees.
From:
no subject
Not sure about Jensen's girlfriend. The topic changed back to Jared pretty quickly...
3) Nope. It's good to be prepared.
5) Bees and Jensen just go together like Bees and honey. ;)

6. I'm Big Bird. o_O
Talented, smart, and friendly... you're also one of the sanest people around.
You are usually feeling: Happy. From riding a unicycle to writing poetry, you have plenty of hobbies to keep you busy.
You are famous for: Being a friend to everyone. Even the grumpiest person gets along with you.
How you life your life: Joyfully. "Super. Duper. Flooper."
I have NEVER used the word "flooper" in my life. Except for just now. Crap.

2. Purty hair!
Poor, poor Jensen! He just can't win.
3. I love my Moleskines and my colored pens. I write with fountain pens most of the time and have way too much bottled ink (but in pretty colors).
4. Yay!
5. *runs and hides at the thought of bees*

2) Thank you :) It's so much easier to dry in the mornings now. \O/
3) Wow! Your Moleskins must look incredible. :)
5) *hides with you* Snakes, spiders, etc., I can handle - preferably not on me, but I don't freak out or anything. Send a bee my way and a moderate-high mode of panic sets in. I think it comes from never being stung by one. I have this fear I'm going to be highly alergic to them or something.
6) Grover was adorable. SUPER GROVER!!!

hehee - i love oscar. i don't think you're pessimistic though ... and if you think you are, it certainly doesn't show in your posts. in fact i'd go so far as to say that you're a very happy, bubbly gal! *hugs*

My phone is pretty cool... Or at least I thought it was before I saw the new iPhone!!! LOL.
Perhaps I'm not as pessimistic as Oscar... but I can be grumpy and grouchy, and I'm definitely a slob! :D

You Are Bert
Extremely serious and a little eccentric, people find you lovable - even if you don't love them!
You are usually feeling: Logical - you rarely let your emotions rule you
You are famous for: Being smart, a total neat freak, and maybe just a little evil
How you life your life: With passion, even if your odd passions (like bottle caps and pigeons) are baffling to others
Not sure how serious I really am... I mean, we have spent extended moments discussing Chris in red panties and the virtues of assless chaps...
