The month that was.

So. I had a plan this month to accomplish a few things. Have i done these things? Lets see...
  • Book a tattoo- I have indeed booked a tattoo and infact get it on Thursday (woo hoo).
  • Sing a song in a Kareoke bar- I am kind of cut that i have not sung a song in a Kareoke bar this month, would have been fun. Oh well there is always next month.
  • Find a new date to the ball- Had an awkward (but awesome) night which did infact result to me asking a friend to my Nursing Ball and he will indeed look far better in a suit than Azza ever will (hating Azza).
  • Buy soundwave tickets- woop woop I got my early bird tickets online the other night! Can not wait for those to arrive. It should be a good day. Great music, great friends and great alcohol :P
  • Party it up in SITV- had a blast...
  • Rock out at Machine Head and Slipknot- OMG this was a good show. Ok so I'll be honest. I was not expecting anything good with this one. I mean i had seen Machine Head before and knew thay would put on a great show but I thought Slipknot would just be average. However, they were not. they played a good set and was hoping for them to play all the songs they did...except for....VERMILLION. Dang I was cut however too drunk and bruised to care. I found the potential love of my life...and then lost him. This guy looked like Hennka Blacksmith mmmmm. All in all a good night.
  • Cure the sick for two weeks- So for the past two weeks I have been on my nursing prac. It was really good this time, I was placed on a surgical ward which is always good. It did turn out to be the Gynocology ward but none the less a good experience. The shifts were not that horrific either. I found myself to be on the hunt for a hot young surgeon. I discovered that they all have thier heads up thier asses too. Except for one young resident. He had me at "Alia, is that your actual name? Wow." We were talking for a while and could not believe my name comes from Frank Herbert's DUNE. Woop. He was the highlight of my days hahaha and now he is gone. Oh well, bring on the next hot med student :P
  • Eat healthier food- Pass... lmao. I tried my best. And I was going really well to. Until Lee insisted we get an organic bar from the vitamin outlet. We got home ate the bar and threw the wrapper on the tabel. Lee's mum decides to read the content of the bar and tells us we just consumed 18g of fat just from eating one 'health food' bar. Shoot me in the face now.
  • Throw a kick ass Halloween party- well, this dot point was the most draining of them all although I think it was worth it. I'm one to stress so you can imagin how i was on the day of the party. I had prac until 3pm and needed to grab a few (drunk) friends from the city before i could go home and get it all ready. Did not arrive home until 5:30pm. Blood was boiling haha. I am typing this hung over so I do hope I remember things correctly. A few of my buddies helped decorate, get the food and drinks out and the music sorted. The night went well I think, most people dressed in costumes and those who did not comply were fed to Junta, the swamp thing. I think everything ran smoothly, the only thing that fucking pissed me off was the fuckers touching my fucking music (no more bad words I promose). My house= my music. Stuff this catering for everyone elses taste hahaha! I'm hoping the photos turned out well and i can see them and remember the moment in the picture and say "Oh yes, i remember now". I'm not sure what else to blog about the night at this point in time. I cannot remember much haha. All i know is that I had a blast with my buddies and enjoy a hug from a fork :P I also liked the amount of effort people put into thier costumes. I mean red felt and a sew on cop patch, enough said. The only thing I would have changed for the night was my budget. I should start saving now I think. I would have liked to provide more alcohol for people.

Well, I think that is enough rambling for this blog.

May the force be with you :P

The "hilariously awkward" weekend :P


Well, i think it is third weekend (or second) being single... Going well i think :P

Friday night was gold. Hung out with a good crew: Jennos, Emmos, Micenko, Berdos, Bennos and Adamo(new friend i made).

Now it started off at the Rocket Room and i think we were there a little early because it did kind of blow. After a few drinks and a master mind plot to find smokes for the "non-smokes" we headed off to the Brass Monkey. I liked this place (thanks Micenko!). Drinks were good, atmosphere was good and the toilets were up stairs, so all the calories i was putting on with the booze was shedding off with trips to the toilet :P

We took some funny ass pictures and all in all the night was good despite being "hilariously awkward" for some as Micenko would put it. I discovered with Ben and Jen that we dig non-awkward silences which is great. I love that in poeple. You can just be you and stand there and not feel like the need to say "so, do you come here often?". It's really great that i can do this with new friends :)

I need more nights like these to deal with the case of the ex hahaha!

Dad came and got us and we headed home for a power nap.


Saturday morning was interesting. Had to be a work bright and early for a ten hour shift. Let me tell you i was not a happy chap that morning. I hate the supermarket so much, so waking up hung over and having to work in one totally sucked. Customers... grrr i could have killed at least seven and shot another ten in the face! Why oh why do the customers always have to be right- dang it! I think the only thing that was keeping me sane was the txt messages from Micenko. Poor guy was going through the exact same thing as i was.

Saturday night was a quiet one. Would have like to boozed it up again but had no plans :P So i spent the night chatting on line (gaah!).


Sunday morning found me at breakfast with the Nonna and then driving to St John of God hospital (needed to know where i was going for prac the next mornng). I had also agreed to meet with the ex. He wanted to see me, which i was OK with but i really just wanted my Meat Loaf cd back :P

It was OK seeing him, it's just he tries to make me "fall back in love with him". Not going to happen any time soon so i wish he would just drop it. But on the bright side- got Meat Loaf back woo hoo!


well, i think that is it. Not too interesting but enough to blog about.

blah blah blah



Why is it that i am percieved as the bad guy?

I fell out of love with someone and thought it the right thing to break it off with them before it gets any more deeper than it was.
I did not want to hurt someone any more than i should have.
Now because i did not fight for the relationship and ended it-i am the bad guy?
Hey here's a crazy idea... How about you see it from my perspective?

I did not want to hate the guy but for frick sakes if he is going to make me out to be the bad guy to everyone by telling them that i made the biggest mistake of my life then, shit.
It would be great if someone just shot me in the face, tried to stick me back together and then shot me again!!


So Spring in the Valley was yesterday... So much fun!!

I went on a bust with Lee, Fran, oh and about 50 other people (that i did not know by the way).
It was great meeting new people and i had a blast with my girls!
However, there was a major downfall. The drinks just kept comming and the sun was hot, therefore i got drunk- real quick. Ans well we all know that Alia and her buddy alcohol do not mix very well hahahha.
Lets just say amony all the fun there was some stupid ass mistakes and really bad photos hahahaha!!
I'm thinking that next year i will organise a bus and get all of my friends to come along:)
It really is a great day and well for the record (Berdo) i am not a drunk and i promise you the next time you see me i will be sober :)
I need to prove i am not one of those cheesy, unclassy drunk girls and well im not really helping my situation, am i?

Ahh to be a rock and not to roll....

A confusing month + long w/e yay!

September has been an interesting month for me... Just when you think you know all the answers, you listen to a song or see a person and it all gets shot to hell.
In the last month my life has become a soap opera (o how i hate soap operas). I feel as though everything i am doing is meaningless and leading me to nothing (wel except for hanging out with my mate Alcohol and going to gigs woo!).

I hate where i work for the simple fact that my nemesis works in the same place (can't quit just yet because i need cash-gaaah). September for uni means 100 thousand assignments, prac exams and 2 weeks prac. Dont get me wrong i love the fact that my chosen profession will enable me to help others but my passion lies else-where. And well the love life is sucking. I have fallen out of love with someone. What makes matters worse is that everybody else loves him. It sucks that i can only type these things on my blog that no one reads, rather than telling someone lol. In the past month i have grown apart from the one i used to call the one. Its just not there any more and im stuck. He never comes out with me when i ask him and the fact of the matter is that he is not ment for me (for more reasons than one). How can i be with someone who does not enjoy going to gigs and moshing to a great band? I think that these moments should be spent with the one you love. I have had pleanty of good nights at different gigs and the more i go to the less i want him there. How does someone just fall out of love? I used to think that was impossible but now i beg to differ. What really stinks is that i cant find a song to help me. Paradise by the Dashboard light by the incredible Meatloaf was the only song i could think of because of the epic line, "And now i'm praying for the end of time so i can end my time with you.". I know what i must do its just doing it thats the hard part. I may need to consult my buddy Alcohol for this one hehe.
so yes...kill me now.

"Its not you, its me"
"sorry, but you're gay"
"I never ment for this to happen"
"You don't like Star Wars, and think that me dressing up as a Jedi sux- Dumped!"
"there is someone else."

Oh what to say??
OK enough of the crap. Im not the complaining type (pfffttt).
To get a better insight on how im feeling just look at Anikin's face LOL.


So this weekend was a long one, yay.
It started off with an invite from Dave to go out on the fri night, some place in freo-woop.
I agreed at first and was looking foward to it until my brother reminded me that it was his birthday! Ahhh, how could i forget? Silly Sally i am. To make matters worse i didn't even have a birthday present for him. I had planned to go into the city and meet Lee, Berdo and Dave for lunch so figured id just get him a gift in there. The little terror wrote me up a wish list (i guess for forgetting) which composed of nothing under the $60 mark... Nice one my little hoe bro. I ended up buying him a DS game 70 bucks later. Ate lunch with Berdo and Dave, Edo's is always a hit. Anyhoo's the day ended up with me being late to pick up my other brother from school and not being able to find an outfit for Spring in the Valley :(

Friday night was nice with all the family i guess. As nice as it can get...

Saturday resulted in a full day of work (gaahh!). From 8am right through to 6pm. No grand final for me. I didnt really mind im not a HUGE fan of the football but i can tolerate it. I had plans to go to a 21st that night but that fell through (unfortunate i know....NOT!). So instead of spending the night putting on a fake smile with the bf i called Lee and made plans to go to the Pado. It wasnt until after i invited Ben n Berdo to meet us in the city did Lee then tell me that the Pado is in Mt Hawthorn. Not the city. Woopz. After a few ales and an epic blow off line "I'd rather be sooo yeaterday than talk another minute with you", my older hoe bro joe came and saved us (little did i know at the time that Lee didn't want to leave which would result in her being PISSED at me for the entire night). Finally arrived in the city to meet Ben and Berdo. Would have liked to stay along the Murray St strip however, Lee insisted on heading over to The Castle. After an hour and a half walk (sore feet and a mouth full of Berdo ripping into be becaouse he could-lol) we did however, end up back on Murray St. By this time i had burnt off all the alcohol i had previously consumed and needed a drink! So we had a few at Bobby Daz (along with a couple of smokes for the non-smokers) and then headed over Fast Eddies for pancakes and wedges :)

Throughout the night i learned a few things...

1. There is some one else out there who likes Meatloaf (not the food might i add).
2. Wedges taste rather nice dipped in maple syrup.
3. I can blow $100 faster than i thought.
4. I will never again wear a dress and heels to a pub.
5. You can still be a non-smoker and smoke :)
6. Next time when i bribe someone to come out with me i will make it a little more worthwhile.
7. I infact do not miss the bf when im out (errr).
Ok so maybe a learned a bit more than a few things.
Sunday was an ok day.
I had made plans with my older cousin and his wife to have a movie day starting from 11am and ending at all hours of the night. I forgot the bf was invited to... Lucky two of my brothers came so i didn't have to spent the whole time avoiding him.
The day started with a sausage in a bun and Borat. Yes Borat. The idea seemed cool at the time but i was just not feeling it. This movie was followed by Point Break. This movie i digged. Not only was it an early 90's flick with the corny one liners and bad cop and robber chase scenes, but Keanu Reeves was the main actor mmmm. So this one i could tolerate. Iron Man was next, pretty good i guess. As far as action heros go. I liked the fact that i was in a 'fuck it' mood and the Iron man character was full of smart ass comments. I also liked the soundtrack, i mean the opening scene started with Back in Black. Nice. Dinner was to follow with home made Pizza's made by me and the cousin (still minimal conversing happening between me and the bf- however, bf still oblivious to my feelings.. errr). After dinner and a bit of whatever we did to kill the time we watched the movie Identity. Now this one is more my kind of movie :)
Some blood mixed in with the plot jumpping all over the place and a stormy night as part of the setting, i guess you can say i was content.
However, i couldn't wait to leave that place. Just to be free of this guilty feeling i had.
So i guess by the end of the blog i might sound like a bad person. I also think that i have portrayed the bf to be a bad guy too. This is not the case. He is really a nice person. Fun at times and an ass at other times. Pretty good looking to, with long shaggy hair and green eyes. Likes Rock and Metal music. He also does Kung Foo which is cool. He treats me well, dont get me wrong and like any other person he has his flaws. He does love me too and will do anything for me. And i must sound like a complete idiot for wanting to let this one go. But i cant be with someone when im thinking "what if" all the time. I cant be with him if im thinking of someone else (even if that someone else is just an infatuation or a potential bf). He is just not the one. He lacks in the small places where i need him to be there.
Hell, im hoping for a sign or something. I don't have any balls and this may only stay written rather than put into action. Gaaahhh why am i such a whimp?
I have not even told my best friend because im afraid of being judged. This is stricly between me and the internet (hahahahaha!). I love the fact that in my state (of being a basket-case), i can still take the piss. A quality i will never lose :)
The point of this task was to really get this off of my chest. My blog is new and next to no one will read it.
But an epiphany would be nice.
