HMS Latex.com
so as I was perusing through some more Ulorin Vex photos (see my entry "amazing hair stylist: Robert Mascaive"; she's one of the models), and it led me to find this amazing latex site, HMSLatex.com. I LOVE THEIR CREATIONS!
I want a cute suit! too bad latex clings to your body like a second skin.

sometimes I think we're insane.
PHOTOS WILL BE UPLOADED TOMORROW!
Saturday.
I had work at 9, and I still love my job. I love who I work with, and I even love it when I fuck something up, because I know I'll get it right next time. Adrian found out that he won the People's Choice award in the Port Douglas Carnivale art competition, Naomi told us about her crazy boyfriend and his night out, and Noni is just so damn helpful that I don't know how I'd be able to get on without her being there. My job is still #1.
After work my gorgeous mother picked me up, and we drove to Centrals via Saint Augustines. You see, as a part of my photography assignment, I'm documenting SHOEFITI (google it) and I happened to notice a pair of lime green and sky blue shoes hanging from the powerline opposite the school, and on Friday, while on the bus home, me and Robert saw Ergon Energy workers with a huge pair of chompers, cutting off this other pair of shoes from the powerlines at Barlow Park, so I took a polaroid of it.
NOW, either they didn't manage to get them, or someone threw a new pair back over the same powerline, probably to taunt them, but they're back. ANYWAY back to the pair at Saint Augustines, I went there to take a photo and THERE WAS ANOTHER PAIR THERE! 2 pairs hanging next to each other. I don't know if it's coz I really get into things, but I freaked out and almost exploded from excitement and happiness, and it took me about 10minutes to find exactly the right angle to take the photo from.
I can't waste shots, seeing as I'm using my polaroid. Anywhoo, I took a photo and I love it; SHOEFITI polaroids to date: 2.
We went to Centrals and I met up with Laura, and left mum. We ate us some Hungry Jacks, played some Guitar Hero at JB-HIFI and met up with Robert. We stalked around town till we got to Off Ya Tree and met with Ellie! She had just gotten her moustache tattoo on her finger, and since that's pretty much the most insane thing ever, I took a polaroid of it.
We left Ellie (seeing as she was still at work) and promised to meet up with her at Massacre of May later. I then got man tackled by Adrienne, and seeing as she's been on of my best friends for, what.. 7 years, I got Robert to take a polaroid of us.
Robert left, and me and Laura bought Maccas slushies and mixed goon with it, sat by the lagoon and watched tourists. Laura remarked on the amount of Asians around, and in fear of getting bashed for sounding racist, we walked around for a bit, and eventually got on a bus to Laura's house.
We listened to some Pop Goes Punk (I think?) and then went down to Raintree's Bottle-O to see if we could get someone to buy us goon. We ended up meeting this guy called Josh, who was pretty far beyond the state of wasted. He tried to buy us goon, but the people in the Bottle-O knew what was up, told him to leave, and he started abusing them, something like "if you don't give me my fucking goon, I'm gonna give you a fucking piece of my mind, and you'll be sorry you were such fuckwits to me" and obviously they called security, so we had to bolt. We ended up back at his house, and he got his friend, also named Josh, to go back to the Bottle-O for us, and we drank his UDL's in the meantime. After about 5 minutes of Josh #1 telling me and Laura that they weren't going to molest us, the other Josh came back, we paid him for the goon, and sprinted. We caught a taxi from Red Rooster and finally made it to the gig, which had started at 6pm, and the last band was playing.
We paid for our entry, got our mother truckin goon tipped down the drain by the security lady, and didn't end up going inside again- pissed of, PLUS a waste of money. I paid $15 to use their toilet, get my alcohol taken off me, and to get stamped by a stamp that claimed I'd been "entered". Fantastic. Though I got to see Maryanne, meet Angus, hang out with Ellie some more, met some lad called Ash (and stole some note out of his pocket. I think it was their set list), hung out with Lizzie and Aruna, talked to some random called Liam and hugged this little kid called Aiden. I always see him at gigs and he always says hello, so he deserved a hug. We got about 50 group shots of us on Aruna's camera, and one on my polaroid.
We all look really good, I love that photo.
Anyways, the gig ended and people started leaving, so we called a taxi. Ellie, Lizzie, Aruna and some other lad left to go clubbing in town, so me and Laura, and for some reason that Liam guy came with us, caught a taxi to Henry's place in Kanimbla. Our taxi driver had "Don't Trust A Hoe" playing, and we found out that back in Africa (mhmm, he was from Nigeria) he had 6 wives, whadda pimp. Don't know if he was lying, but it was still impressive. Anyway, we hung out at Henry's with James, Will and Artem for about 20 minutes till I decided to go home, so mum came and picked me and Laura up, dropped Laura back at her place, and we went home. God only knows what happened to that Liam guy after that.
Even though I ended up spending near $90 last night, I don't really regret it. I only know now, to plan things well before hand.
I love Laura and Ellie :)
I love meeting randoms.
I love dumb arse philosophical talks with Laura at the bus terminal.
I love the sound a polaroid camera makes when you take a photo.
and I love that people remember me from other gigs.
right now, Cairns is pretty great. this weather does things to people.

what I did on my day off school.
so today, every single state school teacher decided to walk off the job, in a protest for higher wages; aka we got the day off school! me and Robert crusaded around town for the day, and took photos for your viewing pleasure :O
"well alright, if you insist". yea, we have a few crazy drunks that live at the bus terminal in town. they leave their bottles everywhere.
we found this really amazing alleyway that must've been painted less than a week ago, it's so freakin' spectacular! I had to take some photos.. and have a little photoshoot :) here's a cute little turtle!
Robert likes to wear vests and run up walls in his spare time.
and do handstands in dirty town alleyways.
everybody jump now!
it was hilarious trying to jump EXACTLY when the 10 second timer went off hahahah I did about 10 bunny hops just to make sure I was airbourne..
everybody was kung fu fighting!
then we proceeded to walk around town, eat onigiri rolls for lunch, see Chantelle in Body Funk, watch Chelsea get her tattoo done, watch us some 'Masterchef Center Court', buy Scrubs Season 3 and a Kimya Dawson cd from JB HI-FI, get hug mauled by Adrienne, drink raspberry slushies, eat some more sushi, and battle the shite out of little punks at Guitar Hero in JB. I epic failed, but it was fun. this little kid kept saying "DO B.Y.O.B, IT'S THE HARDEST SONG EVURR!" and I was laughing while Robert vs'd him, and pwnd his butt. nah, he was a nice kid. oh, and we saw James and Naomi and themz.
I had to work afterwards, and I just re-priced paint. EPIC AWESOME! seriously, I love my job (L).
I hope they have more teacher's strikes soon.

I miss Heath Ledger and the 90's.
I haven't blogged in a while! Nang! So this has been my week:
Monday. My phone made a noise during assembly (again), I drank 350mLs of V, and Robert pointed at that Jacob-look-a-like and he saw him do it (again). I sometimes want to kill Robert, and he knows that.
Tuesday. I drank 350mLs of V. I re-submitted my art assignment. I got excited about the episode of Criminal Minds that was going to be on the following night, and reminded everyone to watch it. Kayla gave me my moustache back. We had some guy from an advertising agency in Brisbane come talk to us and it was amazing! I pretty much want his job. I worked and it was really great. I love my job.
Wednesday. I got paid $130, so I bought V. Mr. Honeywill showed me the cross processed photos he took of me and Kayla and the dinosaur costume on his lomo action camera on art camp, I love them! Kayla gave me some songs from this really cute singer that I forget the name of.. something about seven swans and Illinois? and sufjan? I'll Google it.. Sufjan Stevens and the Seven Swans - Illinois. It's really nice, I used one of his songs as a backing song for my photography podcast. I tried to eat my apple in radio class and the sub teacher told me to "take that apple outside", which made me want to take her outside. I hate pushy subs. I made Laura cry twice today, once from the bum photo I took in Coles (see previous blog post) and again when I got my 'game face' on. We watched last year's seniors video- ours is going to be better.That Jacob-look-a-like sat next to me at the bus stop. We didn't talk. I'm pretty sure he caught me looking at him (again). Sometimes I wish I could incinerate on the spot and die. I taped Criminal Minds and watched the start of it, and Rathbone is one sexy woman ;D
(by the way, that dress makes me look uber fat there. needless to say, I don't really like that photo)
Thursday. Woke up early to watch some Criminal Minds, but I only managed to fit in 10 minutes. School sucked. I had work, which was nice. I listened to Adrian bitch about annoying customers while I re-priced paint tubes. Dad took me to Centrals and I did the shopping and bought Polaroid film, which cost me $40 for 10 photos. Do the math, that's $4 a photo. For special occasions only.
Friday. School mostly sucked. I saw James pulling breakdancing moves to himself in the mirror at lunchtime and laughed to myself. Me and Dani nibbed the Dymo label maker in art and made nametags for people. Mine said "Kelly J. Mc.Awesome" and Dani's said "Banana Hammock". We made one for Mr. Honeywill that said "Bald Eagle" (he has no hair at the moment, he shaved it for art camp), and one for Mr. Weston that said "Little Miss Grumpy" and stuck them to their desks. I wish I took photos. I talked to Jackson on the bus about pink scooters, why he punched up Andrew last year, and the ugly Cairns High guy that catches our bus, that neither of us ever want to sit next to again. He's disgusting, that lad is. Went out to Smithfield and bought a 14mm stretcher and 10 Things I Hate About You. It made me feel a little bit sad coz the story is so cute and I wish something like that happened to me. Plus, the 90's was cool, and I miss them dearly. Plus, Heath Ledger is hot. Don't deny it, he's gorgeous in that movie.
Now. I'm dying my hair BACK to red (not orange, red) and I'm about to find some photos to accompany this blog. People seem to ignore blog posts that don't have photos. People are lame sometimes.
I want dinner.
