It’s been a while since I’ve done snapshots so there are lots this time!
Earlier this week we had a crazy wet day, lots of places here in Aus have flooded and people have been losing their houses to the water *_* It hadn’t been raining very much where we live until yesterday when there was a sudden down pour, of course I had picked that day for an epic shopping trip -_-‘
This river I’m next to is actually where the tram was supposed to be… the track was under like 3-4 inches of water!
It looks like a boat!

I’ve had a lot of business meetings with people this week too, very lucky that some of them aren’t as boring as others… some of them involve gigantic pink guava drinks 😀
Having a business lunch with Marie from One Day in Paradise at the Guava Bean. Omg those drinks were soo good!
We saw this beautiful car the other day in a bridal precession. The poor bride looked like she was dying from the heat though!
The shops here are fully decked out in Christmas stuff now. This is the first time I’ve been to see “Christmas windows”. The theme this year was The Nutcracker, while they were kind of pretty..
The dolls faces kind of creep me out…
Oh this is my favorite busker! He sings kind of Japanese blues with a slide guitar and he’s really good, I want to buy one of his cds when I have the money!
I’ve actually been able t get out more to do some holiday shopping lately. I haven’t decided what t pu on my Christmas list but I’m thinking new clothes because I’m so sick of my wardrobe. I almost bought this cute bowler hat, yay for hats in summer!
James of course just wants to look at cameras when we go out XD
It seemed to go from Winter to Spring to Summer over the course of like a week, all of the trees are now completely green and so pretty!
All of the streets look like this now:
Architecture time!
I saw this tiny little sparrow having a bath in the dirt, so cute! ^_^
I also saw this doggie pillow that I really want to make in a show window display:
I managed to find these cute tights on sale from Halloween too XD
James was the photographer for the Rock and Roll Ultimate Jam Sessions so he spent the day playing with classic cars.
Of course with Super Kawaii Mama there passers by wanted photos too XD
The inside of the theatre was beautiful..
I got to meet up with Nessbow too who is so crazily stylish. Of course I completely forgot about photos because we were having too much fun XD I only got this one of her coming across the road! She brought James and I Halloween candy, so nice!
We spent that day getting supplies for making flower hair clips 😀
I had to post these funny drinks we found the other day, the pink one is supposed to make you more beautiful because it contains collagen and the green has chlorophyl XD Sounds so wrong but tastes so good!
We took James to Costco for the first time too this week! He was so excited because we really don’t have anything like Costco here in Aus XD
Most exciting part for me… seeing a wall of Buenos! Hahahaha!
Ok I lied… the most exciting part was the yummy berry sundae at the end!
James got himself a hotdog and we all spent about 20min laughing at the diy onion dispener thing >_< Again sounds so wrong but tastes so good…
The result:
We did *so* much shopping that day, mostly groceries that we really needed but also spending some early Christmas money on clothes and house hold things.
Between Celeste, Kev, James and I our bags took up more chairs than we did at lunch XD
At lunch we came across who shall now be known as “Passive Agressive Santa”. He came up to us when we were eating lunch and said hello, we said hello back and continued eating as none of us are of Santa appropriate age anymore XD He then stated loudly “I hope you’re not ignoring Santa! People that ignore Santa don’t get any presents!”. So we played along and took a photo with him, it was very awkward and his beard was very scratchy!
I photobombed Kev and Celeste! Santa also questioned James’ photography skills and made a couple of other creepy comments >_<
James was less serious! When we had finished our meal and paid our bill he came walking after us saying “You’re not running away from Santa are you?! You’ll get no presents”. Thus Passive Aggressive Santa was born and quoted for the rest of the day.
On the way out we saw a less Passive Aggressive Santa… though someone seems to have applied lipstick to this one and he’s wearing a skirt. So he was dubbed Cross Dressing Santa. I find him a lot less disturbing than regular Santa XD
Later that day I also found something that might make me want to clean the house more often… leopard print mop!
And lastly I will leave you with this absolutely terrible costume that James spotted in a junk store XD So wrong!
What have you all been up to? |
