Watching an awesome thunderstorm over Melbourne City is how I am spending this evening. Its a nice and somewhat comforting way to see out a really rocky year! And anything is better than the way I spent last NYE! Trust me!
I heard a cool quote from a friend from Darwin...
There comes a point in your life when you realise who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will! Take true friends with you into 2010, I know I will!
You all know who you are...

Pimpin' my Blog
Well Christmas is done and dusted for this year and there is only 1 day left of 2009!
As you can see, I have spent the better part of this evening playing around with and updating my blog. It's a little bit purple and a little bit emo...but it will do just nicely for now!
Heaps of stuff going on in my head at the moment, things aren't too rosey in DeBees life right now! I will be glad to see the end of 2009 and am welcoming 2010 with welcome arms!
See y'all on the other side!

"No matter what happens or how bad it seams today...
Life goes on...
And it will be better tomorrow!!"

Return from Self-Exile and a New Project
Why hello there stranger!
It is true, I have been MIA for about six weeks. Which is actually small break considering my last few hiatus'...bet you all thought I would be gone for weeks...months, even. But no I am back on board and refreshed, ready to tackle my next project.
Which brings me to another Shimelle Laine project I have signed up for, Journal Your Christmas! Ahh..more Shimelle-love in my inbox every day! *heart* This one of her most popular classes and I am very excited to be a part of it. I was a bit hesitant at first...but I thought what the 'hey', you only live once and its all pretty flexible, you can do as much or as little as you like. I have decided to take it pretty easy and if time permits (not so likely at the moment) I can lash out and do a layout or two. For now, I will be recording my journal in a Moleskine "Cahier" Notebook each day and then upload them to my blog every day or so. If I get the time or inclination I may look at creating a mini album out of all of my journal entries.
Catch you soon,

"Starting today, Tuesday 1st December 2009, I will keep a Christmas Journal! I declare that I will make the time each and every day until the 12th Day of Christmas to reflect on Christmases past and present. I will also dream of Christmases to come.
To some this journal and subsequent layouts nay simply be random stacks of paper and trivial scribbles, but not to me. I am taking back my Christmas. I am letting it be something I cherish and most importantly, I am allowing myself 15 minutes of creative expression every day, no matter how crazy the season becomes.
This season I will create something with my own two hands, my own words and my own memories and reflections.
So let the Christmas 2009/10 season commence...

I Hate Myself For Losing You - Kelly Clarkson
I woke up today
Woke up wide awake
In an empty bed
Staring at an empty room
I have myself to blame
For the state I'm in today
And now dying
Doesn't seem so cruel
And oh, I don't know what to say
And I don't know anyway
Anymore
I hate myself for losing you
I'm seeing it all so clear
I hate myself for losing you
What do you do when you look in the mirror
And staring at you is why he's not here?
You got what you deserved
Hope you're happy now
'Cause everytime I think of her with you
It's killing me
Inside, and
Now I dread each day
Knowing that I can't be saved
From the loneliness
Of living without you
And, oh I don't know what to do
Not sure that I'll pull through
I wish you knew
I hate myself for losing you
I'm seeing it all so clear
I hate myself for losing you
What do you do when you look in the mirror
And staring at you is why he's not here?
I hate myself for losing you
And oh, I don't know what to do
Not sure that I'll pull through
I wish you knew
And oh, I don't know what to say
And I don't know anyway
Anymore
No, no
I hate myself for losing you (I'm seeing it all so clear)
I'm seeing it all so clear
I hate myself for losing you
What do you do when you look in the mirror
And staring at you is why he's not here?
What do you say when everything you said
Is the reason why he left you in the end?
How do you cry when every day you shout
"Don't ever bring him back again?"
I hate myself for loving you
I don't know what it is about Kelly Clarkson's songs, they always seem so relevant to me..it's sometimes scary! She may not be as cool as P!nk or Fergie, but there is always room for Kelly Clarkson on my iPod...the girl gets me!

No Air - Jordin Sparks (featuring Chris Brown)
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand
But how do you expect me to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus:]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care
So how do you expect me to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus]
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air
[Chorus x2]
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

This week I "Heart"
It turned into a bit of big week this week. Well lots of little things which have turned it into biggish week. All I know is every week gets closer to that week off I have in November...
This week I "heart" in no particular order:
This week I "heart" in no particular order:
- Black Eyed Peas - Live in concert in the mosh pit at Rod Laver.
- My new haircut - Thanks Lisa awesome job yet again.
- PS2 Buzz! Trivia
- Homemade Bacon & Egg Pie
- Glee - love the whole cliche-ness of it all - why couldn't I have gone to that school? I'm a gleek
- This diary from Kikki K -- which I just got for Christmas, thanks Mum & Dad -- even though they don't know it yet! :)

Goodbye Miss MooMoo
Why do cats like hiding out in clothes drawers?
Today we salute little Mitsy Brown-Humm who is sadly leaving us today! After battling valiantly with all sort of serious problems...turns out a damn infected tooth is what will bring the little battler down. You will be sorely missed little girl and my heart goes out to K&M today as this is not an easy thing to go through. I love you guys!

Day 30 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Wednesday 30th September, 2009
It's the last day of the month and the last day of Shimelle's Learn Something New Every Day class. This month has gone by so quickly, in the blink of an eye, it has swept passed. I haven't done a great deal over the past month (the next few are going to be HUGE, all the way through to Christmas!), but looking back over my entries for this class, I feel like I have learned so much about myself. As cliche as it sounds, this is me raw and uncensored. It did take a while for me to let down my guard and release my inhibitions, but I got there eventually. The whole process has actually inspired me to continue doing this to some degree, even if is just a commitment to blog what I have learned once a week, rather than daily.
I have had an awesome time doing this class with Shimelle. So much so I immediately signed up for her Journal Your Christmas class before this class had even finished...
Which leads us to for the final time...
Today I learned that I am so going to miss Shimelle's emails in my inbox every day AND I learned that if I put my mind to it, I really can see these sorts of projects right to the end!
Farewell September and thank you Shimelle Laine!

Day 29 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Tuesday 29th September, 2009
A day of ups and downs today, mostly downs. I don't feel much like dragging it out on here. Lets just say that it feels horrendous when someone thinks that the really bad thing that has happened them is all your fault, when the truth is you had absolutely, truely, nothing to do with it.
Today I learned that the smartest thing I did today was to keep my mouth shut and rise above all the drama!
Grrr...it annoys me that this project is coming to an end and I am wasting the entries on negative energies!

S and I decided to start eating healthy this week as we have both been eating so much shit and are now suffering the repercussions of such actions.
It actually wasn't too hard and I am feeling so much better already. I was thinking I really need to do some sort of detox program, but the thought of going one day without caffiene would be unbearable. So we'll go baby steps for a while.
Today I learned healthy food can be nice too!

Another weekend bites the proverbial dust and its back to work tomorrow for what I am anticipating will be another hellish week at work. One of my part timers finishes up on Tuesday, so now, instead of being scarily snowed under with work, now we will be ridonkulously busy, snowed under and short staffed. Oh the joy! Can't wait to get out of bed tomorrow morning!
As usual everytime I have more than 2 minutes alone...my thoughts run to the same person. Its my little secret...
Today I learned that I could live without you....but I really don't WANT to!

Day 26 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Australian Rules Football Grand Final Day today! Big day for my family as their team is one of the teams in the final, the Geelong Cats. Its not my team, mind you, I'm the black sheep of the family and go for the Carlton Blues, who went out in the first week of the finals. Anyway, it was horrendous day in Melbourne today, thunderstorms, rain and hail. Not ideal footy weather, playing or spectating! I spent the afternoon at home alone watching it on the TV.
Anyway Geelong were the victors after an excruciating tight, hard fought match over St Kilda Saints. So all in my family are happy little Vegemites this evening.
Leading us into today's lesson:
Today I learned that even if my football team isn't playing in the AFL Grand Final, I still struggle to control the tears. It is such an emotionally charged one day in September!
Off to watch 2.5 hours of "In Treatment" -- love this show, must be the psychology student coming out in me!!

Friday 25th September 2009
Yay -- Thank God It's Friday! Found out at work today through a work friend that another colleague has issue with me. This is not the first time my friend has told me about this person. The previous time my friend told her that she should talk to me about it and I welcomed the opportunity to find out why this person felt the need to bitch about me to someone else. So I have been waiting for this person to talk to me for the past few weeks and there has been ample opportunity for her to speak with me. But she hasn't, so I thought all was ok between us. It should be noted that she resigned a couple of weeks ago and is due to finish up next week. I was assured by our boss that it had nothing to do with me, but I can't help but feeling that this may be the second person I have driven out of my workplace. Anyway, she had another "conversation" with my friend today and I just said to her, I don't know what I have done wrong and if she won't talk to me about it then there is nothing I can do to fix it! I know I am not always a nice person to be around, particularly in this job, because I am under so much pressure. But please give me the opportunity to make some sort of amends. I am not a heinous bitch, truly I'm not!
Which {eventually} leads me to:
Today I learned that I have no control over what people think of me. And I can be ok with that.

Always the true crime buff...
Today I learned that the Manson Family murderer Susan Atkins died of brain cancer on this day, exactly where she should have been....BEHIND BARS!
Atkins had been trying for a grant of Compassionate Release from her life sentences, but was denied on every level. To quote the Governator, Arnold Schwartzenegger:
"I don't believe in [compassionate release]. I think that they have to stay in, they have to serve their time ... [T]hose kinds of crimes are just so unbelievable that I'm not for the compassionate release."

The City is in the grip of AFL football fever and everyone is talking about Brendan Fevola's inebriated performance at the Brownlow Medal on Monday night. The pride of the Carlton Football Club! Lovable larrikan or aggressive man with an alcohol addiction?? Very fine line at this stage. Only time will tell.
Today I learned that the term "hump day" has been around since at least 1955...all I know is its all down hill to the weekend from here!

Very uneventful day at work and then home to watch America's Next Top Model (Cycle 12) on Fox8, which is our Tuesday night guilty pleasure. I want Alison to win because she is so gorgous and quirky, but I don't think she will, she's not stereotypically beautiful enough.
Today I learned this quote about regret by the enigmatic Lucille Ball"
"I would rather regret the things I have done, than regret the things I have not done"

Had another great day at home today catching up with my best high school friend K. We haven't seen each other since June, so it was great to catch and suss out a few people from our past on Facebook. Looking forward to catching up again next month for our friend N's hens night. It seems like all my friends are getting married, I am sure F will be next...
Today I learned that there is nothing like spending a Sunday catching up with a really good friend over coffee!

Day 19 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Have had a great day hanging out at home with Shell, she cooked me brunch before she headed off to work. I have spent the rest of the day furiously catching up on these lessons, doing my washing, uploading my Beyonce photos from Tuesday night and updating my iPod. I also watched a movie starring my-girl-Drew Barrymore called Grey Gardens. It is about Eadie Bouvier Beal and her mother Edith were the first cousin and aunt, respectively, of Jackie Onassis Kennedy. It was the saddest story I have heard seen in a very long time. The contrast between the wealth and celebrity of Jackie compared to the abject poverty and eccentricity of her cousin Eadie is absolutely gob smacking!
Today I learned that I don't want to be defined by my broken heart anymore, and I want to grant myself the serenity to accept the things I cannot change!!!

Work is so full on at the moment and I have to go to court tomorrow. We are in the process of suing someone for not paying their bills and I need to go along to prove the Accounts side of things. I am really nervous as I have never been to court before and I have no idea what to expect. I am terrified that I am not prepared enough and I going to look like a fool.
Today I learned that there are not enough hours in the day for me be as prepared as I want to be!

Ooh, I have a horrendous headache! I was in court all day today, I was so stressed that when I went to the toilet after the first break I found I had huge rash on my chest from the stress. It is so daunting sitting in that sort of environment. B took MU and I to lunch and we were able to vent about work a bit. I was the first time MU and I were able to ascertain which team B was batting on the office politics. In the end, we pretty much won our case, which was good news.
Today I learned that "no" is a word I need to use before I run myself into the ground.

Had an AWESOME time at Beyonce tonight with K&M. It was such a fun concert with dancing and singing up in the back row. The audience was so loud and pumped up, the atmosphere was awesome!!!
Half way through the month and half way through Shimelle's Learn Something New Every Day class. As such Shimelle has suggested that we reflect on why we are doing this class. So without further ado:
Today I learned I am doing this to:

Half way through the month and half way through Shimelle's Learn Something New Every Day class. As such Shimelle has suggested that we reflect on why we are doing this class. So without further ado:
Today I learned I am doing this to:
- reflect on my life
- have a reason to be creative every day
- realise my sense of purpose
- realise I CAN learn something new every day!
Thank you Shimelle!!! :)
Day 14 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Monday September 14th, 2009
Today I learned a new sunrise means a brand new day in your life...
Feeling much better about things today after talking to Mum last night.
I'm very excited about going to see Beyonce tomorrow night. Particular after the controversy from the VMA's earlier today...
http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/435995/taylor-swift-wins-best-female-video.jhtml
The results from this:
*Poor Taylor Swift :(
*Beyonce is a beautiful selfless person, and most importantly:
*Kanye West is a complete and utter wanker and I will now be deleting the one song I have of his on my iPod.

Day 13 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Sunday September 13th 2009
Today I learned that regardless of all the shit that goes on in my life, I have a family that truly and unequivocally loves me, for being me!
I had an long and incredibly emotional talk with my Mum tonight on the phone and she has really helped me put things right in my head. Honestly, she has not said anything that I don't already know, but she has a way about her that makes me realise that life is what you make of it and you have to go out and get it, because it is not going to come and knock on my door. She made me realise that I am altogether too hard on myself and I need to stop punishing myself for a situation that was not entirely my fault. She is right...she is always right! Its her job, she's a super mum!

Day 12 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
I have been a bad, bad girl, not updating my posts everyday for this class! At least, I guess, I am using my Moleskine notebook to make notes every day...
I had a very frustrating weekend/week last week mean't I really didn't feel like updating or reflecting too much. Anyway...moving forward....
Last Saturday's lesson:
Today I learned that I need to plan my weekends better so that they don't feel so wasted!
This has been an ongoing "problem" for me in recent times.
I feel like I work so hard all week and look forward to the weekends but they seem to fly past so fast and I feel like I have achieved nothing and consequently I am wasting my life.
Its just my mind set, I understand that, but I can honestly say, that up until this year, I have never truly felt like my life is wasting away, that I am just a passenger in my life.

Day 11 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
A little bit of reflection for today's entry...
Today, 8 years ago, I learned that the world had changed, forever. On that day I, along with many others, lost my innocence and realised my naivety!
I am sure everyone has a September 11, 2001 story. Mine is certainly nothing special, but I will never forget where I was and what I was doing on that day. I will never forget how different the world became from that day on.
My breath still catches in my throat every time I see that plane hit the South Tower. I don't think I will ever become desensitized to it and I hope I never do! To this day every time there is a "Breaking News" flash across the TV, I hold my breath and say to myself, "not again, please not again".
Watching the TV documentaries tonight, one thing remains true...on that day, we saw the absolute best and absolute worst of humanity.
Another sad reality...it will happen again. It is just a matter of time.

Day 10 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Quick post tonight 'cos I really need to get to bed..after Hamish and Andy's Caravan of Courage of course!!!
Today I learned that sleep is more important than I give it credit for. No sleep last night means I cannot function today!
I was literally falling asleep at my desk this afternoon and actually considered walking next door to 7-11 to pick up some "No Doz" to get me through the afternoon. Luckily I made it through on coffee and lollies. Not exactly the healthiest option...but it was all about making it through.
Tomorrow's Friday! Thank goodness, I have many layouts to catch up on...
Until then... zzzzzz!

Day 9 - Shimelle's LNSED Class
Oh its 09.09.09!!!
Eerie, thankfully the day has passed without incident. Which is always a good thing.
Today's Shimelle's prompt asked us to think of something we are grateful for. I am grateful for many, many things, my family, my friends, my hot-as reliable car,a job that keeps me busy every day and pays me every fortnight, the roof over my head, the money in my bank and this gorgeous city I get to call home to name but a few. I am also grateful for the following:
Today I learned...that I am oh-so-grateful for my morning coffee! Make my a LARGE skinny latte with 2 sugars! Thank you Bluebag Collins Street!
I have to have my coffee every morning, it helps me turn for a super sleepy monster into a normal human being who has the ability to interact civilly with the other human beings in her office!!!
I was listening to this song in the car on the way home from work tonight...
Stereophonics - Have A Nice Day
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rPe0BtYvTA
I haven't listened to it for a long time but I have always loved it loads! It is one of those songs that always make me smile. So I think I should make a concerted effort to listen to it every day...and then maybe I will be in a better mood when I get to work everyday...

Day 8 - Shimelle's LNSED Class
Another full on day in the workplace...hanging out for it to back off a bit, but that's a while off yet!
The weather has been crazy in Melbourne this past week, which leads us today's lesson learned:
Today I learned that Melbourne's weather is crazy. This past week, according to the calendar, was the first week of Spring, but Melbourne says...hell no!!! It has never felt more like winter!
I love winter, it is my absolute favourite season. It is what I missed the most about living in Darwin for the past 7 years. So there are no complaints with my regarding the weather, I say bring on the rain and freezing blustery winds. I just find it humourous that when calendar tells Melbourne, hey its Spring turn on the sunshine, Melbourne just says "screw you buddy", I'm bring on the rains (and we're not talking spring showers here either) and the dark gloomy days.
I just realised today that it is one week until I go and see Beyonce with K & M. That has come around so quickly. Looking forward to see them again and going to another concert, it seems like for ever since we saw Eskimo Joe in concert.

Day 7 - Shimelle's LNSED Class
Rude awakening today! I have been away from Melbourne for the past 7 years...and I recently discovered the following....
Today I learned...that Melbourne Show Day is no longer a public holiday!!!
What the f**k has been going on this state while I have been gone?!?!? Not that I am one for going TO the Show, but it is a public holiday. Why are there LESS public holidays, when there should be MORE public holidays??? Madness I tell you!
Well, its Monday again. I think that it is going to be a long hard week at work again. I am just going to try and ride through the bumps and try to stay positive. And what better way to end a Monday night than with Mr Bret Michaels and the classiest ladies that the United States of America has to offer on Rock of Love Bus??? LMAO Ha, ha, ha, ha! Poor guy, he's just trying to find love....
Until tomorrow....

Day 6 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
On Sunday, I decided to go for a bit of drive and suss out some of the scrapbooking shops around my area. There aren't any in my immediate area, all of them are at least 20 minutes away. But I thought, what better way to spend my Sunday morning? I had a feeling that they would be closed but I thought I would peek in a few windows and see whether they would be worth a return trip when the shop was open. I have been a little disappointed in not being able to find a local scrapbooking shop since returning to Melbourne. I actually thought there would be more options in Melbourne, than Darwin. And there may very well be, just not in the inner-Western suburbs. I have had to resort back to online shopping at Two Peas, which is a cheap option...until you add in the astronomical pricing for shipping!
Anyway, I jump in my little automobile and off I go with my Google map sitting on the passenger seat for a quick reference. Well I missed the first turn off, but that's ok, I'll just take the next one. Well, to cut a long story short, I finally got to my location about 20 minutes later than I should have, flustered and frustrated beyond belief. Which brings me to:
Today I learned that my sense of direction has become practically non-existant in recent times. I can get lost ANYWHERE!
So then I made my way home all dejected and ordered a bunch of stuff on Two Peas to make myself feel better. One thing is for sure, a GPS for my car is on the 2009 Christmas List!!!

Day 5 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
Today I learned that Jake Gyllanhaal is more than just eye candy...the boy can act!!! (*see: "Rendition")
I watched this movie on Saturday and then again on Sunday. What a great movie! Awesome acting by Jake and Reece Witherspoon. It was so prolific and gripping. It raises many questions and gives a lot of food for thought. I loved it.

Shimelle's LSNED Class - Post Updates & Title Page
Have had a pretty lazy Saturday this morning, it has been a lovely day in Melbourne town, despite being a little overcast. I really enjoyed my little sleep in...and now I am getting stuck into my Shimelle class layouts. Here's my title page which has that little wrinkle in it which is annoying the crap out of me. Its a shame because I actually like the page.
I also finished my layout for the 1st of September and posted it in my blog entry for the 1st.
Well must get back to it, I have several more days to catch up on...
Friday, September 04, 2009
Day 4 - Shimelle's LSNED Class
As Shimelle is based in London and I am in Melbourne, I quite often don't get my prompts emailed to my inbox until after I finish work each day. With me being approximately 10 hours ahead, my day is almost over by the time I receive Shimelle's inspiration email. So I have decided that I would try and think of my own lessons and fall back on Shimelle's ideas when I get stuck or to help inspire some new lessons. Up until today, I have really felt like I was slipping behind and that I could never seem to catch up. So from now on I follow my own lead.
Today I learned that my feet really appreciate it when I take advantage of "Casual Friday's" and wear my cute flats to work!
Today I learned that my feet really appreciate it when I take advantage of "Casual Friday's" and wear my cute flats to work!
It was so nice to get home without the usual aching feet. Don't get me wrong, I love my boots to the point of obsession, I really do wonder about the damage they are doing to my feet and more importantly, my already troublesome knee. It makes me ask myself the question, what price do I put on my own health in the pursuit of fashion?
On a lighter note, thank god its the weekend! It has been such a long week, I can't believe how much it has taken out of me physically, emotionally and mentally. I joked today that I would go to sleep when I got home tonight and not wake up again until Monday morning. I certainly feel like I could sleep the entire weekend away, but I won't. I plan on motoring through these Shimelle LSNED class layouts, read a little, watch some DVDs and generally try and kick back and relax, so that I can be refreshed for what is going to be another huge week at work! Then maybe I won't be such a heinous work colleague! :)
Until tomorrow, when I should be able to show some layouts! YAY!

Day 3 - Shimelle's LSNED Class & New Moon SCORE!
Just so I can eat my words from yesterday....
Today I learned that sometimes when you think no-one notices how hard you work...someone does something to make you realise that some people DO notice!!!
Thank you B!!!
Yesterday when he got to work, B put a box of Lindt Lindor balls on my desk. Actually he waited for me to walk away and then he snuck them on my desk - too sweet! HELLO, these are my most favourite chocolates. I had already knocked off 2 blocks of the Dark Lindor chocolate this week - and I complain about still getting pimples at age 31?!?!? Give me a break ok, its been a tough week, LOL!
Also, I managed to score Shell and I tickets to the New Moon Premiere at the La Premiere cinema at Chadstone. Yeah, Chaddy is a bit out of the way, but hey, New Moon only premiere's once in a lifetime. That is the same week of Britney and Nickelback, talk about a full on week. I can't wait!!!

Day 2 - Shimelle's LSNED Class & New Moon
Today I learned that if you are competent in your job, you will be taken advantage of!
Work has been a real headcase in the past few weeks. It has been so busy and it seems like no matter how hard you work or how many hours you put in, its not enough. I'm not immune to hard work, but I am human! I can't be there 24/7! As it is, I am working six days this week. OK, I did volunteer to do it, but a little gratitude wouldn't go astray!!
ARGGHH!
In other news...I got an email today about the premiere of the Twilight Saga: New Moon. Tried to get tickets to Director's Suite but it looks like they were sold out already! We decided to hold back and maybe not get tickets on opening night, because we really want to lash out and go the Director's Suite tickets.

Day 1 - Shimelle's LNSED Class
Well, the first day of September has been and gone and therefore I must have learned something right? That's the whole purpose of doing this class right? I have to say it is so daunting, realising, what if I didn't learn anything today??? Of course, that is completely ridiculous, we all learn something every day! Its just that we don't actually realise that its actually happening...
After thinking about Shimelle's prompt, which is basically describe something you have learned in your home today, I have come up with:
Today I learned, that no matter how I wish and hope, the Housework Fairy just does not exist!
It goes to show, you don't need to be living with a boy to have a housework-challenged household.
It's a little bit of a fun one to start off with! Which is kind of the tone I want to set for the whole month.
I'm hoping to at least blog my "lessons learned" everyday and then probably work on my layouts on the weekends. I might get one or two done during the week, depending on how full on work is. Which is pretty full on at the moment...I am sure there will be plenty of lessons learned there.
Thank you to all the gorgeous girls who commented on my last post. I am looking forward to catching up with you all on the shimelle.com boards.

Shimelle's LSNED Class - Album Cover
I have finished my covers for Shimelle's LSNED class. I had so much fun doing this, I love these colours together and I am still on the butterflies and glimmer mist bandwagon. Can't kick that habit just yet. LOL!
I have spent ages over at the shimelle.com forum (http://www.shimelle.com/forum) looking at all the other great efforts and now have a list of blogs as long as my arm to keep up with.
I can't wait until tomorrow when the 1st email prompts are sent through...I am so excited! I don't know what to expect, but I am excited all the same...

New Scrapbooking Layouts Uploaded
.JPG)
Hi All,
I have updated my Flickr site with new scrapbooking layouts and mini books.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/geekgirlde/
I have really been bitten by the bug this month...which is a bit of a breath of fresh air. It goes to show, if you look hard enough, there are other things to scrap other than..well you know!
So here's to a newer, brighter De --- she is loving busting out these pinks and purples!
Note: All layouts heavily influenced by the gorgeous Shimelle Laine!! Do yourself a favour and Google her! She rocks!
Shimelle's Learn Something New Everyday Class
I have signed up for Shimelle's next online class, "Learn Something New Everyday".
I am very excited as I have been wanting to one of Shimelle's classes for years...ever since I saw the layouts that came out of her Journal Your Christmas classes.
The class was really cheap at approximately $16.00 AUD.
Each day you get email prompts and access to Shimelle's forum.
And the great thing about her classes is once you pay, you can sign up for free for that class, every year it run thereafter.
Yay! Something to look forward to for the month of September 2009!!!
FAR AWAY - Nickelback

Smitten
I have been bitten by the Twilight bug. I finished the book today and to my surprise I found the movie was still playing at Casuarina. So before I chickened out , I booked and paid for one lone ticket to tonight's 9:30 session. As it turned out Janelle and Tim were there to see Twilight, so I didn't have to sit alone and there was only like 2 or 3 other people in the cinema, so it was almost a private screening. I knew from stalking the Internet that the movie wasn't as good as the book (and let me tell you, the book was awesome!!!!), but it still a cool movie. Edward is is just stunning (it's kinda a shame Robert Pattinson has to talk), Bella is sweet, Rosalie is a serious biatch, Jasper is just plain weird. But Alice was just gorgeous and so cool! Lovin' Alice and Edward the most!
Can't wait to get the next book now.. for some more Cullen goodness!
