Goats and Keys

Some of my more recent purchases ...

Scarf: Supre; Silver cuff: Sportsgirl; Rings: Diva ($3 each!!)


My goal to blog/take photos each day for 30 days or however long it was obviously didn't pan out! Haha. Life has been a bit weird lately ... I am up in my hometown working, but not with my parents - they moved a few months ago. Instead, I am living with my boyfriend, his parents and his grandad. His family are REALLY nice, but I am just not 100% comfortable yet ... I like having my own space, and quiet time, and I am used to having an empty house to myself during the day. But I am getting used to it.

In addition, work has been a bit all over the place. We are working up here to save money for our big trip later this year. My normal work (check-in at the airport) has really good pay, but not enough hours. I am going to start working with my boyfriend soon as a cleaner ( ... ) out at a gas plant shortly, with not as good pay but much more hours. I have to admit, I'm not entirely looking forward to it - and we may have to do a month of 12 hr night shifts during a shutdown. I have been looking for admin work but no joy so far.

So all in all, life has been a bit ... off lately. Bright side is I am heading back down to Perth for a week on Tuesday, though not for the best of reasons - my dad is heading in to hospital for an operation. It should be fine, but any thoughts and prayers would be much appreciated!

Recent purchases

These are some of my recent purchases ... I'm TRYING to save money, but keep getting sucked in by sales and deals. Oh well :)








Diva feather necklace, Diva gold bead necklace, Diva cloudy gemstone pendant on silver chain (all three for a grand total of $15 instead of $68 - yay Diva $5 sales!), Canon EOS 300d

Lee, the guy selling the camera, was nice enough to allow me to trial the camera overnight - so much fun! I have already taken a heap of pics from playing around with the different settings, but will have to wait until I pick up the connector cable tomorrow to transfer them. I still can't believe I now have a SLR. Super excited, haha!

Up Front and Personal

So, yesterday I ventured out of the apartment for the first time in days and went into the city to spend my gift voucher. I wore:

Witchery slouchy beret, Kookai leather jacket, Cotton On cardigan, Lee jeans, belt and necklace were presents


This is the necklace that I bought from Pigeonhole. Pretty, yes? Slightly overpriced in my opinion ($55) but since I bought it with a voucher, technically it didn't cost me anything. And I think I already know what I am going to spend the remainder of my voucher on ...

Today I have the opportunity to buy a second-hand DSLR, a Canon 300d for $350. I really want a SLR, as it will really make a difference to the quality of pics on this blog, as well as for when the boy and I go overseas later this year. However, I am slightly apprehensive about buying a second-hand camera ... If anyone has any tips or suggestions, PLEASE let me know!
