One week of uni break down, one week to go. Pulling in 4 consecutive days of study, running out of materials to make models with, 2000+ words written in one day… it’s been reeeeally relaxing…

The weekend has been good though. Friday consisted of shopping with Chrystal and Maddy, Teen Spirit that night where I managed to run into all sorts of people, and Lily’s 18th – where the photos are from. The weirdest part is it’s never occurred to me how often I really do play with my hair until you scroll through this blog. My favourite thing though is bleaching over the blue and my hair obtaining a solid pink hue. Makes no sense what so ever.

Oh well, things’ve been great. I mean yes, busy and draining and I hardly sleep as much as I want to but hey! Swings and roundabouts. I finish semester in a month and half, and I am so excited.

I need to do work here aswell, this place needs a new layout or something. So many things to do wow.

Hi, my name is Jess and I change my hair very frequently.

The past week has been rather busy. Saw Sherlock Holmes on Monday with Samantha, and rather loved it. Saw Clinton that night too which I hadn’t since… before November, actually. Coffee with Sophia Tuesday, living at Chrystal’s for the rest of the week. She did my hair on Thursday (she’s been my hairdresser for AGES now), and that night went out to celebrate Jess’ birthday with a bunch of people I hadn’t seen for so long – Michael, Nick, Adrian and Max (aswell as the usual gang). Friday night Jess had a proper dinner celebration thing with ~the girls~, drinking really badly made cocktails right out of the mixer.

Saturday night – where the majority of these photos are from – was Bec’s 18th. It was a decent house party, save the shit from a whole bunch of drunk teens. Came home covered in mud and suddenly best friends with people I thought didn’t know who I was. Bit cute.

God this post screams 90210 drama. At least it’s not Baywatch drama – which is my new favourite show.

Ohhhh summer holidays.

Florence and the Machine – Only if for A Night

Things are busy. I am a few days and a few modifications off finishing my final major project on my father’s home business’ website, meaning I’ll get to stop working for him. This makes me happier than anything. Sooner or later I’ll need a proper job but MAN this is good news. I have also been accepted into University. I’ll be going to the University of Technology (Sydney), to study a bachelor in Interior and Spatial Design. Excited as hell. I got my first preference at the university I’ve wanted to be at since I was 12. I have friends in that course too so I’m excited.

What else? Been going out, the above photos are from Friday night. I’ve cut my hair too, again. Clearly I need to fix my roots but I’m avoiding further damaging my hair from all the times I dyed it last year.

I’m also getting back into sketching, and hope to get a few online sooner or later. My current trend thing is so mash-up old sketches so who knows. Might get a little collection going.

Exciting life and times.

So once again, we’re faced with a new year. Every new year people start to have hope for a new future, change, all that kind of stuff. Personally, I don’t really care. But January 1st is always a good day to look back at the past year and remember all the experiences – 2011 being a very hectic, emotional, draining, busy and generally fun year.

Last year I was (un)fortunate enough to be home on New Year and posted a reflection of 2010. This year I’m a bit luckier and will be celebrating that Saturday, so I’ve queued the world’s longest blog post to go over the past year and some of it’s highlights. It’s crazy not only how many things happened, and not only how often my hair changes, but how different it was to 2010 and how much I’ve grown up.

So here we have it, my friends, 2011!

Aw, look at me, so nostalgic. 2011 was immense. 2012 will bring a lot of firsts too – university, (hopefully) new friends and many of great new experiences. But more importantly, how was your 2011?

Being home from the coast has actually been not as bad as I expected. Y’know that post holiday depression, being so used to living without parents and then BAM back at home? The first few days sucked, but it’s been good.

Now that I’m 18 I’m finally able to star going out clubbing/bar hopping/whatever you want to call it. Been to a few places these past few days and it’s been really fun, surprisingly became better friends with people I was only vaguely friends with before. Meeting new people out is always interesting, too. It’s basically been a complete change from everything I’d been used to, actually acting old.

Ah well, things have been fun. Changed my hair once again, as you can see. Though HSC results come out tomorrow. And then university applications will come through. And then work has been hell. Swings and roundabouts, really.
