Hello Hello!!!,

Easter update! :) I hope everyone is embracing the holiday and will be enjoying some delectable cadbury, nestle', whittakers, lindt bunnies and or eggies over the next few days! Generally the game goes- eat the entire rabbit. Is always a butter chicken moment- feels like such a good idea-but the after math- potentially fatal.
So I hope moderation is intitiated:) NOT! hehe. gosh- sometimes I am 5.

On that note- I actually did buy a kite the other day, that I am still yet to fly, its sitting in my boot collecting dust, ironically I brought it on the 1 windless day in Wellington City- it has an eagle on it, so for $8 I couldn't not!!!

My friend had her baby shower today- that was fun:D why is everything so much cuter in minature!!! socks, shoes, t'shirts, onesies! Gah- I need to steal a small person to dress, maybe pretend to be a pagent mum for a week or so.

COOOKIESSS!!: For the baby shower- I made some cookies- the recipe is a basic edmonds chocolate chip cookie recipe- then mix in 1/2 pkt of oreos- dark cooking chocolate, some white chocolate buttons- all cut up- and macadamia nuts. not going to blow my own trumpet- but lordy I'd go another round!!:) Some one had posted a recipe where they put an actual whole oreo sandwiched inside cookie dough then baked- so that was a wee twist on that since I ran out of oreos, and didn't want to die from cookie on cookie action :)

I saw the hunger games the other week! The hair/makeup was ghastly, was weird- megatu meets steampunk/ the worst of the 90's, I don't know how I feel about it, other than that it was ammazing- 1/2 way through the 1st book- the concept is quite a thrilling read- I recommend!! Also really want to see mirror mirror, the exotic hotel one- and snow white and the huntsman which should be out later this year!excite!!

FEJOIAS! are back in season-- only my most favouritest fruit in the whole wide world!!! AND I've discovered the best fruit and vege shop in the WORLD aswell! it's next to petes emporium (also another favo shop) in porirua- and everthing is SO CHEAP! it's ammazing, this is where I get my vege and fejoias from- would well recommend.

Petes Emporium- if you haven't made the trip out there yet- YOU are MISSING OUT!!! it's my fav!!! Millions of wigs- all super cheap- it's kind of like the warehouse- but with fabric- hardware, stationary, and costumes, and anything else crafty you may want:) it's my dreamland- SO over spotlight- but actually in saying that- I did go to spotlight the other day to buy a pattern (Yes I know, I was being lazy and couldn't be bothered pattern making) but the girl was super nice!!(for spotlight this is a first) It's ammazing how one person can just make your day that much better with a smile:) They usually all have a face like a dropped pie.

One of my good friends is coming up from Dunedin next friday, she's been living in Japan/taiwan for ages so haven't seen her in faarrrr too long- she's coming up for my friends hens night on saturday- 50's desperate house wives themed, so I can't wait!!!:) yeas they'll be a penis cake. But on friday night we're going to have a slumber party just like when we were little! I can not wait to see miss Emily Gray.

Puppies are good- Vada E've is 6 months now- she's really big and lovely:) Growing into a big soft teddy bear and Mr Savaloy is a great wee guy too- they are besties:)

The mimco shoot- I came 10th- I didn't get into the top 5 which I was abit upset about, but I really appreciate the support from the lovely people who voted!! I would have loved to be in the running. but there were a few late entries who somehow managed to get in the 3000's with the votes, so I couldn't keep up! Also somehow 50+ of my votes vanished into thin air- and they apparently couldn't do anything about it, so think it's abit rigged. But never the less:) everything happens for a reason =hopefully something else will come along!!

Freelancing still- weddings are winding down abit now, so taking on a few clients per week for cuts/ colours/mens cuts/hair ups the whole sherbang!!:) So if anyone needs something done- please get in touch! Saving for the trip to Hong Kong which is coming up soon! Still in the saving mode:) Can't wait to have some fun in disneyland with Katie cross in our 5 star hotel!!!:D exciting!

Blenhiem in May for my friends wedding- hence the hens night, I've never been down there so can't wait to see the beautiful place:) and my beautiful friend walking down the isle with mr right:) yipeeee.

PLUS: yes- sewing- getting back into that- haven't sewn in far too long, which is very naughty of me- so I'm making a blue pattern velvet dress -50's style that's my next project, :) shall post pictures ones its all in one piece!:D

http://cake-mag.com/we-all-have-secrets/
This is the editorial I did the hair and makeup for-in Cake magazine!!! YAY! it's out now-click on the above link to see the shots. Cake is a brazillian magazine- so were quite stoked to be a part of it!!:)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/34408698/defuze%233.pdf
UK magazine -Defuze, asked us to submit some shots for their latest edition- edition 3! Check out the magazine on the above link- we're towards the end:) 4 page spread- tomorrow when the 'war begun' with Phyo Thu- and the lovely O'hagan sisters!
Well also be submitting some work for the 4th edition and hopefully many more after as a monthly edition- should be out towards the end of april! fun:) We did a blade runner inspired shoot on sunday last week- with model emma slee, and phyo, and I had fun taking a few shots myself- to give me something to do- quite enjoying the old photoshop lately! it is fun:)

http://www.wassakh-magazine.com/
This isn't out yet- but Lou and I will have an editorial out in French Magazine Wassakh -superhero inspired shoot soon, I'll post when it's up!!! Thinking mid April!:D EXCITE!!!

Congrats to the lovely Jen Maxwell and Claar for making the model cut for Wellington Fashion week, I have quite a few friends who are making things work for this event so pop along to some shows! It's coming up very soon- 18th-22nd of april:)

I think that is all! Appologies for the novel- was meant to be a quick ranty update:D Longer than the bloomen hunger games!
Night all!! Hope the bunny brings you treats on Sunday!!! and YUM ALSO go down to brumbies JVILLE if you can!! The couple who own brumbies, mum is friends with, and she doesn't like rasins/saltanas so every easter she requested chocolate hot cross buns- so now they're on the menu! Selling like hot cakes so pop down and get some- we brought 4 bags and they're almost gone!! SO YUM!!! so yes if you can grab some i'd recommend like nobodys business. xx

Over and out-

Love to all

I've been out of the blogging loop for faaar too long!! It's a sunday morning/ and i'm ready for a good vent. so here goes it.


I actually came on here to get my secret chocolate brownie recipe! Pretty stoked I actually blogged up a storm with that one- someone rummaged through my recipe draw and somehow that recipe seems to have disappeared... WHAA?! Sunday afternoon brownie treats -why today?! WHy NOW!!! but yes- stoked it was on here, I can rest in peace. has anyone tried it yet??

All in good time.

insane thought- poor kitty lucky they found it in time- but jst on that note- this was 1 RANDOM guy- pulled over for speeding- usually wouldn't check the boot of the car in tht routine check- who else is doing shit like this?!!

CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE!!!


Holy moley- so you kids have got to try this- and especially if you don't cook- or have much time on your hands- best sneaky treat ever....
take advantage-

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips
(optional) a small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous). And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

yeah- jst do it.

Jeff Buckley

Waking up with Jeff Buckley this morning, was not only a mezmorizing experience- but a truley inspirational one. His voice is like a combination of Pink Floyd and being in bed listening to the rain. It melts in your ears, like nothing I've experienced before. Listening to such powerful melodic hooks, after having being subdued to radio takes for so long, I feel like a piece of my soul has been given back to me. He's a one off ledgend, and truley there was and never will be anyone like him, from his music to mind- the way he conveyed his ideas about life, and living- were far beyond his years. The way he spoke was so deep and true.
I watched his 15th anniversary of GRACE dvd this morning and fell in love. Thanks Jeff- Your music will live on forever-rest in peace.

So I got my 1st library card yesterday! Somehow managed to be a tin bum and score a copy of twilight- what a page turner!!! I've already read 3 chapters- (i'm a super slow reader) But I can't put it down!!! Also got out 8 mega sweet cds- to update the ipod, ups to the Johnsonville Library for having Wilco and the Dave matthews band cds, about time I got rid of meatloaf and all the other crap my sister put on for me- sorry sis, but Rob Zombie was getting under my skin somewhat. Wasn't ideal driving music-was getting abit ragey.
Speaking of which rage against the machine isn't actually great for parallel parking- or concerntrating. !

Been abit sick over the weekend so I'm at home today, soooo cold!!! I'm going to rug up and watch tyra and read twilight- got to be done!! Made some sweet healthy muffins yesterday- should put the recipe up really it's a fav of mine- apple and boysenberry w musli sounds not that amazing- but lordy they are great news!!!

Quite keen to do a few more photoshoots- only doing 4 days a week at work at the moment, so have abit of time up my sleeve! Quite keen to do a jeff buckley inspired shoot after this am's episode!!

Mmm what to have for breaky... Still pretty into my corn on toast- thinking yes.

CODY SIMPSON-The next Justin Bieber- freakn fanno.




So I think this kid is 12. Like actually this time. He's been named the new Justin Bieber= stink for him- he didn't have much time in the spotlight!!
This pip sqweak reighns from Australia, spotted on you-tube and made an instant star- claiming to be bigger than Justin Bieber- what's going to happen when he makes it to a Tennor!? Will they shunn him- I reckon Justin might almost be about there, he's being shoved into the corner-- Been abit of hating of this wee sprog- purley because he's claimed 'Not as good as Bieber,' I don't think he's really copying anyone just had a sweet break. Really don't know if I'd be keen to be famous for being like someone else... What do you have to say on this matter??
Hey the sun is shining= ideal. Might have to get amongst that!! Thought id' just get on here and give you some information to ponder over.
OOp cramp in the leg- better wade this out..
Lame.

sucky in skirts!


SOOO- These sculpting skirts are Freakn amaaaaazing- Trinny and Suzannah have been raving about sucky in sculpting shorts, skirts and undies for god knows how long- they actually are my heroes- so I thought I'd try one of these badboys on for size.
So best bang for your buck brand - is Triumph, I purchased the skirt from Farmers for $39.99
best $40 I've ever spent!!! You can get undies- dresses and shorts aswell, there's other more expensive brands- but this one has been personally tried and tested by myself and my friend Jo who put me on to these- honestly if you don't have one - go get one now, they just put everything into place- literally, lipo for $40!! seriously I lost inches without having to hit the gym, winterwobblies- can bugger off in 2 secs. And you don't get undie lines- it's just like a curvey bod w no bolges- ideal!!! Just make your body look great- and clothes amazing.
Anyhoo- I'm not getting indorsed by triumph- haha just honestly get one they're fantastic!!

Pretty stoked to hear about the Cat drive- with the spca, selling all the cats- I think giving them away to good homes for free was a great idea- because people want them, just the $500 fee for a grumpy old moggy is just abit out of line!! So yeah- go the spca, great job with that, completely cleaned out the newtown shelter! Went the other day actually was going to get this CUTE puppy angus- but when I got there he'd been rehomed:( I wanted him really badly- but I'm happy he's gone to a home that's the main thing- very quick.

I hope Nicole wins top model!! She's really qwirky and cool- her hair's amazing, had abit of an off week last week so here's hopeing she gets back on the horse!!!

Went suit shopping today with my friend Charles- Farry's had a sweet suit sale on, he got a rad Paul Smith pinstripe suit- dapper. Went to Munn's to compare, honestly word to the wise- if you're after a suit- pay abit more and get one that feels nice and actually makes you feel great. Fits you well- and is comfortable. They're like shoes- they are an investment piece because you will wear them all the time!! So don't scrimpo. If you're going there to get one- talk to Anna or Robert- I use to work there, they know their sheeeit.

Works been awesome- my boss gave me Saturday off so was pretty stoked!!! Man white chocolate cheese cake from expressoholic- and the old one (now inigma) don't really wna support it, but yeah cheese cake- AMMMAzing. get into it. or don't coz the addiction may kick in.

Elston Gun are playing a gig this Saturday at Bodega from 9PM with the slurtones, they've got some new tunes I hear so you probably want to get amongst that idea.

Mac makeup is holding a seminar on the 23rd this month- at the Museum Hotel from 5.30-8.30 it's $120 to go but you get to redeem $100 of that on Mac Makeup- teaches makeup techniques and what not, may be just a ploy to buy their new range- but could be worth popping along to!

They held auditions for Glee the musical this wkend!! Was really keen to audition- but got abit too nervous- and couldn't think of anything to sing, so didn't end up doing it- but I'm super keen to go to it when it starts on September 23rd- think it's at the St james...?? Curious to know who'll they'll cast as Finn and Puck..! hotties.

Had the extreme shop the other day!! yikes- actually brought soo much clothes-! It's hard having pink hair- things either clash or just don't work- so end up wearing black alot- then freaking out coz ppl might think I'm an emo, gaa. Snot on.

What's with people stealing animals from Pet shops>!>?? Heard it on the news tonight- wtf?! Little ones that are worth a grand or so = I get it, but how shit is that?! Hope they are being nice to them- probly just re selling them, but one just just brought a bag in trying to smuggle one out- he got caught, but still a bag?! gaa.

O yeah- lame my car got towed the other day- literally got towd from taranaki to hopper street- didnt read the sign properly- oops.,but yeah bums..! But no sign with a number to actually ring to ask where my car it- friday night aswell- super crapS!

I have a new phone!! Same number- but yeah I probably don't have your number- so if you could text me- that'd be great:D I haven't deleted you if I text you back and ask who it is- just to claraify!! xx

Getting into reading abit more actually- use to be the slowest reader just because I hated it do much- but I'm starting to quite enjoy it!! We have a huge box of old school books in our garage- Nancy Drew, Trixie Beldon and all that jazz, and really old old ones aswell, just read Black Beauty's Son- happy ending- I get abit emo when sad senarios happen to horses, sounds abit lame- but was an ok book. Going to hopefully tackle some of the twilight ones at some stage.

Had a tasty burger from The Craftsman- they have $10 lunch burgers most days from 11-4 I think it is- and 2 for 1's on Thursdays= but they're only about $11- 12 on average anyway they have about 15 burger's to choose from- and a burger of the day aswell- pretty good!!! Onion rings- bloomen great news- plus they have connect four and guess who on hand!! Fun lunch date was had!

Anyhoo lets hope this weather calms the f down!- bloody outrage as of late!! Miss you Al-o-vera.
Actually nothing on TV tonight- what happened to Sunday night movies /Theatre...?~!
come on guys- sort it out!!!

Roger that.

Lame


Riight-
So for those of you that don't know, yesterday something pretty lame happened to me.
I needed to get out for some fresh air- and wanted to just bugger off and take some photos, so I went up the coast to Pukerua bay beach. Went for a stroll- took some photos, had a weird feeling about my bag being in my car- and thought oha nah it'll be ok, then came back to find my car had been broken into with a skrewdriver. They stole my handbag with my wallet in it, makeup cell phone, some glasses, had let my 2 front tyre's down, and had gotten into my boot and stolen my gorgeous custom longboard- above. So yeah pretty Fukn dark. Just letting everyone know- as my board cost my alot but it means a lot more to me than the money I paid for it, and if anyone see's some1 on a board like that please push them off it and kick their ass- I want it back!- It's partially designed by me and made w 1 off woods so is literally irreplaceable- and has custom for dom written underneath. I miss my pink panther so bad. Insurance is going to cover it all, but it just makes me so mad- they only thing worthwhile in my bag worth taking was $20 cash. The rest is not worth anything to them, so they prbly jst chucked it in a bush somewhere. I'm a strong believer in what goes around comes around tho- so they'll get damned to hell:)
But yep- my sister's sending me down a new phone 2mrw so she's awsme- will have the same number so will be back to normal soon:) If I haven't txtd you back- that's why I'm not snobbing you!!xx
So what else is happening..?? The new season of Glee starts this Friday!!!
Maniquill is having a party this friday also- pretty secret sqwirrell,
Tiddabadés and Fighting the Shakes are playing plus more to be announced, $5 on the door to cover expenses, BYO booze. Add it on facebook- coz the location will be sent out friday morn.
So.. What else- it's still raining?? yeah, whats the deal= not much of a summer now this?!!
Byo's seem to be the funtime of choice latley- that's been fun!
OOOO also, last night- went to 1 red dog- the Shawshank pizza best idea ever!!! Lambshank mean w pumpkin on a pizza!!! ammoizing- plus their fondoo and breads and dips pretty mean, chow- u lucked out, i was hungry and u didn't feed me.
Think that's about it- really just wanted to vent- about my lame begining to my week- and just warn everyone if they're going to Pukerua Bay Beach to not leave any valuables in your car- and not to go alone. Beautiful place other than that!

Hey,

So= I've been super slack with the whole blogging scene. Woops! I've been semi busy doing stuff.
Tidyied my room, and my sewing room today which was an actual effort. I've got another mountain of clothes to add to my selling volcano which is in the garage. I seem to just accumulate clothes- and find it quite hard to let go. I still think of things that I've sold or given away and think bums I wish I could find that/wear it again. Think I need to just do it... But I want a good home for my old clothes- and for people to love them as much as I once did, thinking I'm going to have to have another garage sale sometime sooN!!Getting rediculous.

So not sure where last week went!! Still getting use to working full time, and my week starting on a Tuesday and ending on a Sat- when it hits Weds the weeks almost over!!!

So I got up this morning= and thought i'd do some pilaties and get my groove on. I use to dance heaps when I was young and sprightly- it's weird how when we get older we stop doing most of the things we did when we were younger= almost get embarrassed by it,?? I dno, but yeah thought I better get into an exercise regime and just do it, it's Winter and I'm just getting into a working full time rutt. I'm sure I'm not the only one??

What else..?? I've been eating heaps of creamed corn on toast latley??! It's bloomen amazing, I haaated corn in a can when I was younger but now I can't get enough of the stuff!! Almost an obsession. It's strange I think when we're kids we don't like certain things and almost are afraid to try them again- but latley I've been getting into alot of things that I really couldn't stand as a kid= must be growing up!!

Even trying reading abit more- to be honest I never was a great reader- I couldn't concertrate on the lines, and always use to cheat and watch the movie when I was at school, I couldn't understand how people could read a whole book ?! Or find the time to read a chapter a night!?? But yeah- I mean there's defintly books I wouldn't pick up still, but I'm getting alot faster at reading- and am pretty stoked on that. I really did it, coz it makes me dream more. I don't think i've gone to sleep in ages and not dreamed at all. And my spelling- was never super bad- but I think with texting so much skipping out letters etc- it actually makes you a crap speller!

What else... I played pool in the weekend:) that was fun, would actually rather play pool then get super wasted ever weekend these days, don't have the staminar for it anymore! Was a quite weird feeling coming out of the pool hall onto Courtney place was really overwhelming! Swarms of really young wasted youths, in short skirts with stilletos- and justin bieber wanabes in plad shirts. Made me feel quite old!! The drunk girls in the corners- and people hoofing down kebabs, I'm sure we weren't that bad?!! probly were actually haha.

Last week for 20% off all hair services at work!! 803 3239 to book with me:)

Happy b'day Robyn!! Hope your having the best time in Auckland and learning heaps of makeup tricks etc

And to my friend- who probably won't even read this. But I don't care what you decide to do, I was only ever being a good friend by giving you my opinion and advice, that in the long run- you'll figure out was worth taking, or prove me and the rest of the world wrong- and I hope you do. But I still consider you a good friend and don't see why your decision should change that, anyway stop acting weird, it's not fair on anyone.

House Of The Rising Sun (acoustic cover)

Holy Fuck- And somehow Justin Bieber is front page news??? This kids' got talent - ammazing.

The Black Keys - Tighten Up

So - I've been abit pre - occupied this week! Worked a 12 day week- and finally that beast is over!!! Should really go out- but my flannel pj's are pretty much calling to me.

Just found this video clip- don't think it's super new but I hadn't seen it before and I liked it:) so I share.

Congrats to Caitlin on having her small person on May 9th!!

Happy 24th b'day Hayden, hope your well :)

So I've been super busy, I did the video clip last Sunday and Monday- for Tk ft Deach from smashproof- about 50 or so hair, makeup and fashion and was an extra in some of the club scenes- don't know if I was up to scratch with that haha quite a difficult task dancing with no music at times- without looking like a twat, was pretty full on- luckily I had my fantastical sidekick Suzette to help keep the sanity!!

Was pretty stoked with Tyra the other night pulling up that stupid bald botch Bianca- the one with the attitude. Came on set and complained about not liking her makeup and all she had to get done for her makeover was her eyebrows and she complained about that aswell!! So glad she almost got sent home because of it. Wish the stupid greasy haired tart from the shoot learnt a lesson from that- You are paid to sell a product as a model/ or an extra, when someone creates a look for you- if you say you don't like it or take out your hair on a shoot or set, not only is it disrespect and plagerisum, it's a waste of my time. It's insulting and if anyone ever came on my set and gave me an attitude, took out their hair, complained about their makeup- they would not be working again in Wellington let alone NZ, you defintly wouldn't last long. Your not paid to like your look!!!

Anyway pink hair is pretty fun!! :)

SHit I just found this- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvhvHBrhlOM I defintly have mixed views-7 year olds dancing to single ladies wearing those outfits, growing up abit too fast, but then again dancing outfits have been skimpy for centuries and they actually dance freaken well. What are your views??

I watched abit much TV today-Nz series Resivoir Hill is pretty cool actually, it started as an internet series previously only avaliable on tvnz.co.nz but now it's on Sundays at 12, it was quite a full on for 1 1/2 hours of viewing, heaps happened!! Hot Wellington born model turn actor, Tim Kano as the lead male slightly badboy character who drives around in a sweet old school station wagon and leather jacket- was secretly quite captivating!!!

Gossip girls always amazing. Likeing Hilliary duff on it actually (no more lizzy maguire) and Lady gaga was on there today aswell- quite eventfull.

Glee's coming back soon!! yeehooo. Can't wait. Hopefully singing sensation Nick Pitera will be on it, might not be til next season but I'm sure he'll get the part- heard he was going for it. Those of you who don't know who Nick Pitera is,... TOtal babe- and can sing Mariah carrey and boys to men- both parts , it's insanely aamazing. He's got heaps on you-tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlRGidTBCPU

Seamus, Blair and Sven are playing a sweet set from 8pm Weds 19th May at Southern Cross- so get down there and check it out, should be a good vibe.

Still have 20% off all hairdressing services incld dreads and extensions this month only so get on that boat!! Ammonia free colours, and special effects colours- seriously any colour you can think of- it can happen= the snozberrys taste like snozberrys!!! 8033239 , 225 cuba st next to the Itallian shop and Peoples coffee. It's also a shop:) Also in need of some models- Just give the salon a call if you want to put your name on the model register that would be super helpful! Just kinda need to be open to the services we need signed off.

Whats the go with the rain??! It's actually pissing down out there!! Not too fussed I dig the rain:)

THE BEST CHOCOLATE BROWNIE!


Right kids- a recipe for you all,


Here goes- this brownie will blow your face off, it's freakn ammazing. I was abit like willy wonka and his ever lasting gobstoper with this particular recipe, it's soo good I didn't want to share it, or make my friends podgey- but seems as I can't stop eating it, you can feel the indulgent rath of my wares right now... hehe YUMO!!!


THE BEST CHOCOLATE BROWNIE


Preheat your over to 160 degrees


175g butter

175g milk choc melts (plus another shit load of white chocolate melts- honestly if you double the amount I won't tell)

1 1/2 c caster sugar (don't use normal it will taste gritty)

4 eggs- (honestly i'f you only have 3 actually tastes better)

1/2 c flour

2 T cocoa powder

Vanilla essence



Righto- so bung your butter and milk choc melts in a microwave jug, put on for 2-3 mins, then stirr until it's all smooth and delish.

Add your caster sugar and eggs stirring in between each egg you add.

Sift your flour and cocoa powder together and stir into the wet mixture.

put a wee dash of vanilla essence in , then add white choc melts in to taste- 1/2 a pack will get the ball rolling, don't be shy!


lightly spray oil to grease a square cake tin, (don't use butter)

Pour mixture in- then bake for 1 hour sometimes a wee bit longer- on 160 degrees.


Let cool if you can haha, I ususally get to it when it's abit gooey can't resist!

Then if you want to dust with icing sugar that's always a nice touch!


Sold. You won't be dissapointed.



So I got my lashes done today- yeeoohooo I don't feel like a wee bald man anymore, I swear why was I blessed with NO lashes at all, it makes such a huge difference!!!


Still haven't decided what hair colour to go yet..? Any suggestions?? I quite like the chick below- trish's hair i'll post a pic- she's actually quite all the go- girl crush maybe haha. Well just on her hair sheesho!! Even makes green look pretty desireable, and she has cool shoes! luchkeee.


O yeah!! We totally got DOLLOP at work today!! My boss is amazing used it on my client today It honestly is my favourite product, I can use it on anyone!! It was designed for her husband- the lady who invented it, but it's the best most nourishing naturally great news product ever.
What else.... Its Thursday tomorrow already!! Whhaa?! I don't know where this week has gone!!
Anyway I need my beauty sleep desperatly, so that is all.

Tattoo socks






















Tatoo socks! Knee high, thigh high- I just found a sweet webstore where you can purchase these badboys, I think they are pretty sweet, and want some!! http://www.etsy.com/shop/post?section_id=5065946

Gotan Project- I've got their 1st album and just got their 2nd! Really awesme, kind of cafe frenchy music- seductive, just good music!
http://www.myspace.com/gotanproject

Also got Paolo Nutini's latest album- 'Sunny side up.' as to the name- quite alot perkeyer than the 1st album, I didn't like it as much- but still pretty good:)

Skins- Freaken amazing, Honestly if you don't watch this programme, your so missing out- i'd recommend getting out all the seasons- next season starts next week I think!! Mondays' 9.30 c4, going to be a goodin!

What else is sweet- never mind the buzzcocks, you tube it, it's freakn halarious!! It's a gameshow- based on music, with famous people- Noel Fielding's on quite alot, (Dreamboat) honestly it's pants wetting good.

Mighty boosh- got out the 2nd series again, I didn't realise Naboo is actually Noel's brother!! He's so little!! But yep brothers. There's also a weird pilot movie called 'sweet' on the 2nd disk, About noel having an imaginary gf, who he get's pregnant, then whilst that's going on, he meets another girl and they start getting it on, then julian barrett tells the new bird noel's (pete sweet is his character) cheating on her, so she goes over there and finds him boning his imaginary gf poppy, who turns out not to be pregnant, then the new gf, runs off with the imaginary gf and noels heart broken, then realises Julian (stitch) is in love with him, and then they became lovers. SOO bizaar= but noels sexy so I kind of didn't mind.

Haha old gregg. gaa. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRWVJ3AeFAk

Anyhoo- that's all from me!
Made a sweet jacket today and met my new band, all cosha

Daily report


So... Trelise Cooper's seminar was super sweet- Really inspiring, her life sounds far too ammazing, she has a house in FRaNCE AND really great hair!! I think I want to be her. I'd totally recommend going to the other 2 seminars- at Tepapa, on the 6th and 9th!

I've been asked to do makeup/hair for an up and coming artist TK's new video shoot this weekend- 3 day shoot for his new single 'Mr Liar,' featuring Deach from Smashproof, so that should be fun!!! Will keep you posted when that comes out.

I'm meeting my new band members tomorrow, www.myspace.com/jackscollective so that will be fun aswell- can't wait to get back into the gig scene etc, and hopefully do abit of recording before I'm 100.

Wen't back to being blonde yesterday- thinking I may go a marshmallow pinky colour, unsure = any suggestions?? I get bored easily...

Ladies night at Upper Hutt Pool on Sundays $2.50, from 7-9pm- and they open all the rides!! No dodgee little maori boys who recieved eyes for christmas perving at you, it's plesant and makes you feel like a kid again- the wave ride is actually pretty out of control. in a good way!

If your after eyelash extensions- go see my friend Jo Palmer http://www.joannes.co.nz/
She's now moved to Clipjoint hair and beauty salon- low key salon in the hutt- but they are so freaken cheap and do great work! 280 High st, Lower Hutt (04) 569 7595, they do everything not just lash extensions- and they are reasonably priced, think it's about like 30bux for a spray tan!! I might get my lashes done again tomorrow aswell... Stupid season changing- not letting me wear mascara.

Has anyone seen Nowhere boy?? the john lennon movie?? Is it any good, I haven't heard much about it and so want to see it! And also Dear John- freakn Channing Tatum, what a dreamboat!! Buff and sensitive- In LOVE!!! I watched 'He's just not that into you' again last night with Fits, It's crazy how true this movie is- still kinda gives you false hope when they get it together in the end, but good movie. It's interesting seeing how guys think, but then it sort of makes you over analize things... hmmmm.


What else... any questions you might want answered??- I'm into researching, so let me know:)

Hope everyones all cosha! Miss you Alabama!! Come home asap.x
