good morning! it feels nice to be consistant with my blog, and a month between posts feels enough. i've been pretty busy since my last post, which is good but also the year is going so fast i cant keep up and its almost JUNE. i was given a beautiful mixtape from amelia since my last post and even though i havent listened to it as much as i would like, it means the world to me. i think physical media is very cool but not only that, having a piece of music where the physical item IS the music is amazing to me.

i tried to book in some driving lessons but my schedule got moved around and he needs my availability to book the lessons and i have no idea when im even available these days! but i have been itching to drive. 2026 is the year of el driving i promise. in the meantime in learning everything i can about cars so i can take care of myself and dont have to rely on everyone else to make sure my car is functioning.

in arguably less fun news, cherry got in a car crash since my last post and the loss of her car has felt like the death of my brother. it might be ok, it might be saved. i think everyone over the age of 60 should take a mandatory driving test, and then again at 70. and then like every 5 years. get that 86 year old lady OFF THE ROAD. i put so much effort into keeping that car looking nice and have spent HOURS cleaning it top to bottom so quite frankly it better be fixable. also, ill get my mums car eventually and i want to be able to drive it with cherry because they're so similar! anyway drive safe and get a fucking dashcam it will save your life im so serious.

its been so foggy in the mornings lately which does make for some good photos on the way to work at 5am but that also means its FUCKING COLD and i get chilled to the bone. otherwise, beautiful sunrises and sunny days. there is nothing better to me than getting to wake up before the sun, watching it rise, watching the fog slowly sink and disapear, and then finishing at 2pm and getting my entire afternoon to myself

ive been very into florence & the machine lately. everybody scream really is one of the greatest albums of all time and i stand by that. she is such a eloquently spoken woman and has a way of articulating her thoughts and feelings that i feel so personally; its nice to not feel so alone in the world. if you're looking for some music i would say listen to that album right now, or at least the first 2 tracks. and maybe kraken and music by men.

in other news, i got to print the camera adapters amelia made for her camera and now she has these 2 incredible lenses that attach to her pentax and she is just such an incredible photographer and the photos that are coming from these lenses are so cool and unique and she is an actual visionary and my inspiration. some favs attached i assume, provided i remember. i also got my disposable camera back from yarrawonga!! so some of those too :) .

finally, i got to spend time in noojee this weekend, which i havent been to before. what a fucking gorgeous place. even in autumn, almost winter, everything is so green and shiny and beautiful. it was so peaceful and quiet and a very much needed escape. every time i have an event with people i dont know, or dont know very well, or even just havent seen for a while, i get very anxious leading up to it, not to mention friday nights are usually amelia nights and that was a rough one to miss. but getting to see my wonderful friends again and hang out, and listen to music (live in denver i love you i cant believe i hadnt seen it before.), and just talk and relax has been so welcome and i feel like a person again. georgia is one of the sweetest, funniest, most creative, and caring individuals i know, and i feel so honoured that i get to be in her life and be apart of it. i cried a little bit the other day because i really wish we met when we were 12, i think we wouldve been rerally good friends and i think i wouldve felt less alone back then if i had more people like her in my life. i cannot wait to see everything she does with her talent, and her heart. happy 21st gee! love u so much, cannot wait for mc bingo with you.

i think that's all for now, thanks for reading if you did!! and sign my guestbook!!!!!!!!!!!!
