Max Brenner has created yet another mother fucking tasty indulgence! he calls it, The Chocolate Wrap. The ingredients he has said that is in the wrap are: corn flakes, bananas, melted chocolate, nuts.. and you can dip it in sweet, melted, chocolate.. mmm! "Morning Wrap" he says. Yeah, he was on The Morning Show too. Gotta tune in time for the show at 9AM weekdays! I love Larry and Nat. OH! and before i officially sign out for the day, Max Brenner is launching his recipe book first in Australia, called, Chocolate: A Love Story. Yay :)

Featuring an amazing cast, amazing characters, and amazing imagination. I can't wait for this to release next week!

"The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is a fantastical morality tale, set in the present day. It tells the story of Dr Parnassus and his extraordinary 'Imaginarium', a travelling show where members of the audience get an irresistible opportunity to choose between light and joy or darkness and gloom. Blessed with the extraordinary gift of guiding the imaginations of others, Dr Parnassus is cursed with a dark secret. Long ago he made a bet with the devil, Mr Nick, in which he won immortality. Many centuries later, on meeting his one true love, Dr Parnassus made another deal with the devil, trading his immortality for youth, on condition that when his first-born reached its 16th birthday he or she would become the property of Mr Nick. Valentina is now rapidly approaching this 'coming of age' milestone and Dr Parnassus is desperate to protect her from her impending fate. Mr Nick arrives to collect but, always keen to make a bet, renegotiates the wager. Now the winner of Valentina will be determined by whoever seduces the first five souls. Enlisting a series of wild, comical and compelling characters in his journey, Dr Parnassus promises his daughter's hand in marriage to the man that helps him win. In this captivating, explosive and wonderfully imaginative race against time, Dr Parnassus must fight to save his daughter in a never-ending landscape of surreal obstacles - and undo the mistakes of his past once and for all..." - IMDB.COM

"it's a non-stop trip of, life here and, here after. i don't know any rules is to what planet youre on, you take your own pick. it's all about love and family and getting together in the future, and life will go on forever because no drug is yet to be found to stop it." Christopher Plummer on Terry Gilliam's, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

This morning I woke up to Channel 7's Morning Show. One topic has lingered through my mind since turning my telly on to this favorable channel - Handling Toxic Relationships. A toxic relationship is basically with someone who makes us feel really bad. ..their e-mails are confusing, their texts are ambiguous.' So are you a toxic friend or are you a victim of a toxic friend? As the topic went on, they mentioned 3 different types of toxic friends.

1. The friend who just takes (aka the one-sided relationship)
2. The critical friend (aka the judgmental one)
3. The copy cat (aka the single white female who dresses like you, buys the same things as you, so on and so forth)

Now here we go with handling toxic friends. You can:

1. Try to make changes
2. Create some distance (this usually works with most relationships)
3. See if anything improves after time away
4. (If all fails) Be very busy (and ignore them, haha)

..if you do try and explain to them what they're doing, then they would probably try to spin things around and make you feel really bad, and still wont let you escape.

How do you prevent unwittingly becoming a toxic friend yourself? It's simple.
You must remember to not only take but give, listen as much as you talk, initiate half the contact instead of copying everything they do, don't judge them or their partner and the list goes on.

Watching this in the morning, and again on their website, has made me feel quite content about myself. I have been both toxic and non-toxic. i feel some-what, more human than I was before I turned on the telly. Yeah, OK, bye!

dipset.

Paper Tissue, you excite me. I love the photos you find. Classic.



Love it. Fucking hilarious.



Can't wait for this movie to show in cinemas! i literally shut my eyes really tight at night before bed hoping to dream about myself in this story. not really. maybe.

And yet, another film about Alice in Wonderland. Could this be better than Tina Majorino's version back in '99 where she plays Alice, along with Martin Short as the Mad Hatter, Whoopi as the Cheshire Cat, George Wendt and Robbie Coltrane as The Tweedles? Johnny Depp did do a freakishly good job when he played Willy Wonka. ..and Edward Scissorhands. Tim Burton's films never fail. I can't wait for this movie to come out next year!



Now on a bloody note, there's a new movie, Daybreakers. guess what it's about. ...VAMPIRES.
Isabel Lucas from Home and Away and Eathan Hawke from Training Day - watch this tralier



Also, adding to this, watch The Vampire Diaries and True Blood series. i am completely obsessed. i find it a lot better than Bella and Edward trying so hard to resist each other. Ridiculously romantic, it drives me crazy..







so how many of you like vampires as much as i do?

The Disney Princesses and the newest addition, Princess Tiana. Aparantly screening end of 2009.

woke up on my satin pillows,
one arm hanging over the top, laying on the other.
listened to my sister hurriedly leaving the house for work.
(is hurriedly even a word?)
tossing and turning, trying to get back into his arms.
eyes closed so tight, imagining his smiling face,
and his voice... his voice touching my skin.
can't seem to make out what he was saying,
but seeing him again, made my morning shine.
eyes opened wide. tireless eyes.
sister walks out, 'i've left the terrace door open'.
reality is here again. what to do now?

this. i fixed me some toasted pb&j sandwich and fixed up this neglected blog. looked at my resume and fixed that too. though i need a new objective. i feel as though my previous objective is a little bit insincere. i explained that i will study while working in the future. hello! i wrote this resume 2-3 years ago. i have not picked up any pencil nor paper with a bunch of books to study from, neither have i touched a student card since 11th grade's tvet course at tafe. yeah. some pretty poor effort there, lori. things might change soon though. this little lady has decided to do something.. for now of course. if/when i do enroll, until then, i will tell you!

so i re-read the previous blog and found that the links i posted, don't even work properly :( i unfortunately don't know how to fix it soo here is the website of where i usually get some of my music updates. speaking of music, PARKLIFE ON SUNDAY <3 A-Trak, The Cool Kids, Empire of the Sun, Kaskade, La Roux, Lady Sovereign, MSTRKRFT, The Rapture and et cetera, et cetera. i just hope it doesnt rain or sprinkle.. or flood? i feel like i should be wearing gum boots.. hmm..

first and for most, today is the day we lost millions. a moment of silence...


and here's something you might be missing, have missed, and could be looking forward to in your lives..
