Recaps of 2012 - February @ Wednesday, January 02, 2013



It was the first time I used Lush, I had a bath with Satsumo Santa and a Magic Wand, that sounds dirty :P but isn't meant to... anyone want to have a go at rewording that? I did enjoy Santa ;) and might repurchase that again, though I didn't see it this Christmas. The wand I liked, but I wouldn't recommend. Doesn't make much bubbles. 



I visited Hector, and had some lovely dumpings along the way. At a place I go past daily for the past few years but have never had the opportunity to dine at.


 
We took a road trip to the country (according to me) or borderline bushfire zone (according to Freud). And on the way we stopped at Northland where I discovered the 'happy lab'! Unfortunately there aren't any stores in the city - yet.


 

Day at the Races Parasol 18.00

Bought a lovely parasol from Forever New. I've always wanted a lace parasol (preferably in black) but never seen one for a good price. Once bought one from ebay and they upped the postage to $45, reported it and the user got their account suspened, but I didn't get the parasol in the end.



I discovered Thomas Dux sold macarons. The lemon yellow ones are my favourite.
They have around 14 flavours, including coffee and rose & lychee.


 Ian died, he was 26. They buried him on the 18th.


New year, new school. During orientation I came upon these lovely roses.


Had dinner with jas before seeing a double bill. 
I'm not really into abstract plays or art. 
I prefer Shakespeare and Monet.

Recaps of 2012 - January @ Tuesday, January 01, 2013

Over the next 12 days I'll be posting a recap of 2012, I know I'm a year too late :P but better now than never. Plus we have summer school starting and economics ain't that exciting and there won't be much to talk about.



  


New year, new college, new uniform a modern take on Wednesday Adams, strictly black & white, stockings all year round. The Good: choosing what to wear every morning won't be so hard. The Bad: We have people asking if I'm from Massachusetts. The Interesting: I hate stockings, went for knee high black socks instead, with the skirt length no one's going to know. ;) 

Kimiko decided to go for a less asian name and now goes by Emily. 
This change may have been before Jan 2012...  











I remember why you host your own pictures rather than link them. 
Site change over time. Picture urls get changed/deleted. 


 We went to see Sherlock Holmes, A Game of Shadows. 



Had a group dinner at Peko Peko, with old college friends - we rarely get together because since we graduated in 2008 we've gone off to different colleges, and the fishbowl is been broken.  



First time I bought something from ASOS. A disappointment, never bought anything good from there. Everything ends up a. being sent back b. being sold on ebay. I prefer to shop in stores where I can try before I buy. You can't feel the fabric online, even if you can get a close-up of it. 


We had Grill'd's amazing hot chips. 
Still the best chips, unbeaten. 


Won two movie passes from Hudson in a 25 word competition.

 

 Bought big balloons.

 

Bought my yearly mini calendar in late Jan from OW.
Last year I bought Thomas Kinder's, which is still one of my favourites.
