Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows


The sun is out today! Yes, after nearly two weeks of grey skies and rain, this afternoon we have a bit of sunshine! How lovely! For the last two weeks I've been prancing around telling people how much at home I was in rainy weather, and how this is what it is like in London all the time... how funny :-)

My little sister Jess is an entrant in the The Entrance Mardi Gras Queen, which is exciting! The major event is the Mardi Gras parade on Saturday. Jessie is sponsored by her work, the Wyong Council, so her float has the theme 'Water Conservation', which I'm not sure will be a real crowd pleaser. (Other ideas we came up with were "Microchip Your Dog" and "Pay Your Rates On Time!" neither of which really had much potential either!) Jess's plans sound fun though, and I am in charge of the music! I ran a search on Limewire for relevant songs, and found a few fun ones - 'Waterloo' by Abba, 'It's Raining Men' by the Weathergirls, there's a sweet Hillary Duff one, and one called 'Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows' which is almost unbearably cute! I remember it from an old Simpsons episode actually. Jessie will be a Water Princess, and her boyfriend Adam is dressing up as Whizzy the Water Drop - man I can't wait to capture that on film!

I'm still job searching also - how can there possibly not be a job for me yet! Feel like I've sent at least 50 resumes for jobs online. I know something fab will come along soon though, but it's hard to enjoy time off when you're not sure where you're going! Hopefully soon I will also hear about the FABULOUS house I'm moving to in Sydney! It's a share house, and my beautiful friend Shelley lives there, which is great. It's right next door to an old church too - which has to be good vibes, right! I just have to wait to hear when her flatmate is moving out. I can't wait to have my own space again! (although I will miss the broadband here!)

Yes, AND MY MUM!!
