Don't you hate it when you need a new look but can't afford it.
Well I can finally afford it. So I bought myself a jacket yesterday.
It was $170, but totally worth it. I also dyed my hair a bit today.
Anyway, the point is I feel good.
I got a new sketch book the other day in Newtown.
It's this little, Indian looking thing and I love it.
The paper is really thick and soft. So I've been sketching.
( Want some pics? )

So my net hasn't been working for a while now and neither has my land line phone.
My dad called Optus and they sent two guys over today and within 20 minutes..
they had it fixed up. Also, it was no charge and they were really nice too.
On another note. Why is it so fucking cold already? It's so sunny outside.
I'm wearing jeans and a big wool jumper my grandmother made. And I'm still frozen.
I suppose I could turn my heater on, and maybe, possibly, perhaps, put on some socks.
I might go outside and take some photos. I'm incredibly bored.

So I actually talked to my best friend today.
Kinda weird that I only blogged about not hearing from her yesterday.
She filled me in on a few things going on in her life
And I filled her in about a few things going on in mine.
She wants to catch up, and so do I. So we'll see how it goes. In other news, I had such trouble getting to sleep last night.
To top that off - my alarm went off early so I could take my dog for a walk.
When I got out of bed and had breakfast, I couldn't find her collar. Anywhere.
I bet you the little shit has hidden it.
So I couldn't walk her.
But I still really wanted to go for a walk, by the time I realised this - it was raining.
My day wasn't all that bad. I felt productive. I've been thinking about changing my room around.
I kinda want to make it look more like a bachelor pad, without the mess.
Is that weird? Any ideas?
Also, Jen Cloher contacted me today asking for some design work.
She said she'd like to keep me around as their official designer. So that's real good news.
Hmm there's not much else to say about today.
I made myself tereaki stirfry tonight and experimented a bit.
It was nothing short of amazing.
On a final note, last night I went through my old posts on this thing.
And.. wow. I literally felt sick at how immature and illiterate I was at 14.
Plus some of the stuff I blogged about was incredibly lame and silly. Okay so, give me ideas on how to change my room around?
I have blue walls that over the last couple of years I've tried desperately to cover up
with things like posters and big pieces of material.
I can't afford to paint it atm, and to be honest it's not my first priority either.
Ideas?

I just realised I've hidden the link for people to be able to see my Info.
And that with that hidden, not many people will figure out how to add me back. Here you go: http://lexlover.livejournal.com/profile If you're interested..

I might start posting regularly on this thing again.
I have a lot of things to say. I'm not sure I remember how to blog properly.
I feel like I only ever talk about my Jess (my girlfriend) on here.
Which isn't a bad thing - she's beautiful and a huge part of my life.
I just feel like I should be writing about other things too.
Like the fact that I lost my best friend.
She has a new crowd. A new scene.
A new group of friends she'd rather be with.
That's all fine and dandy, and good for her. But I'm done chasing her.
If she ever remembers that I'm still alive
and that I never did a thing wrong by her..
maybe she'll pick up the phone and talk to me.
Yep, I've decided. I'm going to start using this thing as a proper blog.
And I'll put a small, relevant photo up in each post.

So I got back from Melbourne last night.
Was only there for a couple of days, but it was worth every penny.
Before that, I hadn't seen Jess for 5 weeks.

So I did some research and found out that if you contact Youtube and tell them you'll delete the offending videos - they've been known to unsuspend your account.
I sent just sent Youtube this:
"Hi,
My name is Cecilia and I write to you on behalf of the 5 Art Bits from the 5 Art Bit channel. Which has, as of today, been suspended.
The 5 of us worked so hard to make this channel extremely entertaining and unlike any other Youtube channel out there.
Admittedly we obviously made some mistakes with our music choice (in some of our videos we didn't use royalty free music) and we absolutely regret our stupidity for not being up to date with the Terms Of Service.
However a lot of our videos did not contain any copyrighted music and due to one or two of them containing copyrighted music - our entire channel (all our hard work) has been removed (or suspended).
YouTube, we implore you to reconsider our suspension as a channel and ask that if given the chance - may we delete the offending videos and keep our channel, now that we are up to date with the Terms Of Service?
I hope to hear from you soon,
Cecilia "
3 hours later the channel was put back up. It's back up. I don't know why.
Maybe it was my email to them, but if that's the case - they haven't emailed me back saying which videos to delete.
Maybe it was a mistake. Maybe they're giving us another chance. *shrugs*

YouTube fucking suspended our account. No email as to why. Nothing! All our hard work - for what?

Kate Miller-Heidke is being followed by 56 people and is following 21 people on Twitter.
Out of those 21 people we have:
Edward Guglielmino
Jesus Christ
Emma Dean
Megan Washington
Steve Pope
Cecilia Acevedo
That's right.
For some strange reason she's been following me for the past week.
Also, I was like the 3rd person she searched on Twitter.
I feel nice knowing she cares what I have to say.

The circus is a dangerous place of long-held grudges and rivalries. Its owners are constantly trying to kill each other, while the clowns have a natural enemy in the acrobats. Performers also spend much of their time thinking of ways they can kill off their unwanted alter egos.

If motivation took a physical form for just one moment,
I guess you could say it threw up all over my face. I'm so inspired and motivated to create at the moment. I'm working on an altered book right now and I've just
finished the case for it. (yep the book will come in a case)
I went out today and bought even more art supplies.
Then I went to Bunnings Warehouse and bought a whole
heaps of cool stuff / bits and pieces.
It's going to be something like my last altered book:
Except.. BETTER. I can't wait to finish it.
