Monks, Slurpys and Tea Bags.

I have started this blog many, many times and can't work out a way to not sound like 12 year old girl recounting her day to her fat, supre decked friends with names like courtney and hannah [offence is optional]. So I shall do this in point form in order of events.
  • Got to school on time!
  • Got angry because I left my camera battery at home after charging it all night
  • Bus time!
  • Bryce recieved his first phone call from a man talking about a gum tree and an apartment
  • Monks gave us doo-da's to hang on our phones..what groovy groovy monks
  • Buuuuurwood shopping
  • Vinnies
  • 7/11 Slurpys..which are the bomb diggity
  • Subway - made a page in my journal using the slurpys
  • We discover that Bryce's phone number had been put on an ad for a bar tending job on gumtree.com therefor resulting in about 40 calls from people wanting said job
  • Lit some candles, listened to a cute monk with a lisp
  • Urinated in the monestry!
  • Bryce discovers a swastika on a table and decides they're going to kill us all..but then he recieves a few more phone calls = P
  • Molly made an angry page in my journal
  • Ferrar and Molly contributed torn up secrets to the envelope in my journal
  • Nugget threw a box at Jack's head out the window and missed..epic fail
  • Home
  • Tea bagged my journal..giggity

Pages so far:

Covered

Thelma has a covered Journal!
Done with a piece of old tie dyed fabric from year 10, one of my candy resin magnets and a hot glue gun. I'm interested to see how long the heart will last and how it will come to it's end. Stay tuned..

Today our class is going on an excursion to a Tibetan Buddhism temple. So I'm hoping to collect random things and take heaps of photos and maybe even get a group page going.

Bloody Steiner children.

And so it begins..

Today I somehow stumbled across a website about this book called..'Wreck This Journal'. It's a journal designed to be wrecked..hence the name. I fell in love with the idea of 'Creative Destruction', of just letting loose and going with whatever creative instinct I had no matter how shit. So after school I drove up to Towers in my shaggin' waggin' and bought a black book from Smiggle. Now there is the actual book out there..but

1. I live in Sydney..so I'm guessing it would be hard to find in a book shop

2. I'm impatient and a 'spur-of-the-moment' kind of gal

The Journal so far:
