confession: i love this show.


:: Glee - Don't Stop Believing ::

movember!

a great little friend of mine is having his birthday party on the night of my favourite fundraiser gala: movember. sad to be missing it, but happy to be celebrating the milestone with our good friend G.

R just sent me this though...

last year, onstage, top 3! that's R and i in our matching orange and purple cheetah suits and our other flatmate H in the giraffe suit (complete with handcrafted giraffe head on a stick). pretty cool that we made the cut in the :: movember 2008 slide show :: .

a page full of je t'aimes for you.

when i get into something, it sort of starts off as a crazed infatuation, so apologies for the overabundance of youtubing on this subject... can't help it! here is the video for dead hearts - directed by dead man's bones, featuring a moving sculpture by artist arthur ganson. creepy and wonderful.

The Melbourne Edition.


My flatmate R bought me this book last year called Stuff White People Like. It basically just points out how white people (the book was primarily written about North Americans) all tended to have the same hobbies, likes and dislikes (i.e. to study abroad in Australia, love Wes Anderson movies, when a bad political decision is made they threaten to move to Canada (if from the US) or to Europe (if from Canada) etc.).

Well, today TH sent me a great little link... all those interested in learning a bit about what White People in Melbourne Like should check out this dude's :: blog :: . The top 5 categories that I fit into on there are: Northcote (I live there), Moroccan Soup Bar (my house gets take-away from there every Sunday night without fail), Hating on Sydney (sorry, but compared to Melb, Syd is pretty lame), Churros (San Churros on Brunswick St. in Fitzroy is delicious, admit it) and Dropping the 'North' from my suburb name (not so much now, because I don't think people would know where 'cote' was, but admittedly when I lived in Fitzroy (North), it was easier... and slightly cooler I guess, to say "oh I live in Fitzroy, just at the corner of Brunswick Street and Alexandra Parade...").

Anyway, Melburnians should enjoy this, but any of you coming to visit here one day might find this an interesting insight into the culture in this wonderful city... it's all pretty true.

thanks ebay. ironically, i bought it from a seller in hamilton, ontario. this is my first ebay purchase since the lifetime tickets debacle of '06... seems that time has finally dulled my fear of online auctions, hoo-ray!
