WELP! i haven't been on in such a long time, but here it is..
A POST!
And what a grand (and slighty delayed) post this is!
you see....on my most favored day of the year, the 31st of october, i happened to check my blogger account, and this came up to greet me!
Which made me happy giggle! what are the odds? and on halloween to boot!
so i want to thank EVERY ONE OF YOU for taking an interest in my oddball ways, and i swear i will become more interesting down the track ;) <3
How was everyone's halloween? i spent the day in high spirits, decided to doll myself up just because i felt like it (and i had nothing else to do on a wednesday night :P ) and then that night i was left completely freaked out, why? well, i found a folded letter in my purse, which i had been using all day mind you (and this letter was quite large) between one of my good friends and her mother........from 2008.
now, i hadn't seen her in weeks, and she had just gone on her honeymoon, and her mother was also out of the country on work.......this letter, was sitting in the card section, poking out as if someone had slipped it in there...which was what must have happened, because i took my purse out 10 mins earlier to put some change away...and nothing was there.
Only one other person was in the house, and they were asleep...
I told her about it, and shes just as confused as i am, for she always kept that letter on her desk at home....
Lets just say, we're still freaking out about it.
But some Midnight Monster Madness made it all better that night XD
*dances*
The next weekend was me and dani poops friend, Caitlins halloween party! which was a friend filled booze driven mad fest XD ahhhhh, good times!
and to make these past weeks better, guess what?
One more day until my birthday ;3

11 Things about me:
I may be slightly obsessed with Japan and anything Japanese :3
I have so many things i want to do in my lifetime, there is just one problem....TIME!! this is where im hoping the governments experimental laboratories will blow up, sending a new "vampiric virus" out onto a traveling bird, infecting the mites on it's back, for the bird to land outside the cafe where i am seated, only for one surviving mite to jump of and bite me on the leg. BAM! instant timelessness ;D
My imagintation is one of the things that keeps me going through the day. at times it can be very vivid. daydreaming is my forte, although, im very sure you do NOT want to know about the darker side of my imagination....macabre or morbid dont even some close......^.^
My nicknames origins came from one of my best friends father, who could not remember my name and asked "isnt your friend...Vavaline, coming over?" this was from a time when Valvaline Oil adds where playing on australian T.V.s :P if course, that was just the start of the Vava nickname spinoffs!
I drink 2-4 litres of water a day. :)
I'm most likely going to have to take Anti-biotics for a good chunk of the rest of my life.
Rain/water is one of my most loved elements. when it rains or theres a storm, it sets me at piece and makes me so happy. when i see a large body of water like a lake, or drive past the ocean, all i want to do is immerse myself in it's cool depths <3 i really wish i could breathe under water ^-^
I cant usually go somewhere with someone without atleast taking SOME pictures....i am a HUGE collector of memories.
I involuntarily growl when i see someone who attracts me...*blush*
After going to Lady Gagas concert (her last day, last location) i noticed that in the center of this 50c sized birthmark kind of spot that suddenly appeared on the side of my waist last year, had sprung the number 51 (12 in the mirror) clear, definite white numbers, with no explanation. and they are still there, a month after.
I also wear a silver bell and a gold enriched lapiz stone around my neck ^-^

"FYeah Finery Challenge.
Day 1 ~
Take a picture of you in your most cherished item of clothing (never mind the date!) Give a little info on it - including where you bought it and why it means something to you (eg. is it sentimental?)"
I'd have to say my most cherished piece is one i do not get to wear often....for obvious reasons: My lace dress~
The only full length pic i seem to have of this dress :P
oh, "thats not bad" i hear you say? well....it's all completely see through, like the top...;P it's a gorgeous dress! buy hard to go out with in public ;)
It was given to me from a friends modeling days when she was a teenager....30 years ago ;D isnt it an amazing and original piece!? i think so ;) and it just makes you feel oh so uber sexy! one of a kind and so pretty, why WOULDN'T i love it! <3
Two weeks have passed since my last post... BLASPHEMY!!!
Alot has happened in those two weeks. i shall start with some Letter Hauls i was supposed to post ages ago!
I will begin with something i know you guy will roll your eyes at. Kony 2012. Now now, stop raging, let me explain!!
yes, i was one of the many who was caught up in the hype, but unlike most others, my motives were a bit less.... um...."honorable"? I love to be a ninja type, going to rallys, running around city scapes, doing awesome urban crazy things, so with the "cover the night" event, i thought it would be a fantastic idea to get friends together and go on a roadtrip flinging around posters and having a blast all the way. for me it's a romantic thought, and i think it comes from my love of apocalyptic worlds ^.^
so what does this have to do with a letter haul? well.
I ordered all my gear on there site, and told them to send it to my PO BOX, as the post offices do not send mail out to my area i had listed as residence on paypal. yep, "sure" they said. 4 months after my order, AND the event, i still had gotten nothing. so i told them and they gave me a full refund. funnily enough, a week and a half after that, my mother went to kirup servo, and it seemed that a package for me had luckily been redirected there. so it got home to me and i opened it........dun dun duuuuuuun, it was the kony package!.....the fuck? SERIOUSLY!?? ugh
Le package
Customs, y u hate on my package!?!?
outside
inside
seriously THE most comfiest shirt!
Posters @_@
so now i have around 60 posters i need to find something to do with (i might make some original paint overs and do a "PONY 2012" tehe ;) ) and the shirt is actually seriously comfy! it's my new bed shirt, you would have seen me wearing it in my Red and black week day 4 post ;D In conclusion; Kony 2012, go eat "man pie". free shit, come hither. ;)
Now onto my next package, which is seriously more fun and exciting! APOTHECARY CLUB!!
Ive just started out on Uncle Festers Apothecary Club and i am SOOO SO happy with it.
My magical self is tingling! ;D (also, please visit Uncle festers and buy some of there amazing things! they are in some money struggles at the moment, but they are a fantastic site with so much gorgeous items, i really don't want to see them go! if you see anything you like, please, feel free to SPLURGE! ;D )
I was so super excited to be holding this!!
Omfg FOAMIES EVERYWHERE!!

The folder...and BUBBLE WRAP!!!
She chose one with a rose...man, she knows me well ;D
A courage blend, how adorable! and a cute vine covered pentagram phone charm, which is now happily swinging off my phone ;D
Folder contents: Uses, magical medical and others :)
why are the photos so bright?? ......because i CAN! muahah ;) my next package should be coming really soon! (if you guys have any questions, info wise or just curious, please feel free to ask! i was going to do a big write up for this, but i don't want to make this already big post bigger ;) )

Lots of drinking, and playing spin the bottle........and somehow, all people wanted me to keep doing was flashing my boobs, HEHE!! *le blush* DAMN YOU ALCOHOL!
so that was friday night......saturday morning we were ment to head up to supanova, but .....well.....
My poor Mario mobile :'(
THIS happened :/
Dont worry! we were all ok, but my one and only car was dead :( good news was, we got to go on sunday instead!!
Shannon dani and I on the Train ;D

My goodies Haul from the day! OMG MUSTACHE PLUSHIE!!!
so much amazing things went on!! we didnt get a chance to see any of the stars, but in the end we were really happy and had our fill of geekiness ;) so an awesome weekend that had me stay at danis for a day or two actually turned into about 4-5 because of my dead car ;D SUPER SLEEP OVER! We ended up doing a collab video during the week ;3
I hope you all enjoy our accents ;D I will leave it at that so your heads do not explode from my mass post haha ;3 Love you guys! hope your week has been SPANK-TACULAR!! Kissu~!
Unfortunately, I've been having a lot of "Blue screen of Doom" moments on my computer, and it happened on day 5 just as i was posting :( so! after some more dramas and goings on, I've reached the computer, and i will put together the two days for you :3 <3
*Edit
And not only that, but for the last 4 days Western Australia (mostly the south west) where i live, has been pelted by massive storm winds, up to about 140KPH....so, as much as i wanted to get everything in on time, i simply couldn't, we have been without power, reception, gas and water for 4 and a half days, so if simply wasn't possible :( and being in a rural apple orchid area, we need power to pump our water, and being surrounded by old trees and a highway out the front, it's been terribly dangerous :/ but the worst is over for now, and power is restored, which im super happy about!!! :D *
For day 5 i put up a selection of photos i've done for my local
bellydance group. these ones are of my great friends/ neighbor/
journalist/ writer/ just all round AMAZING person, Nina Smith :D
And here is Day 6!! which is a collaboration of some of my favorite photos with friends, involving red and black :D (...it seems to be all i wear, haha!)
