Help?

Hi all!

Hope your week has been fun-filled, and for my American readers, I hope your Friday is spooky and sweet with your Halloween celebrations :)

I am on the search for a notebook. The type I'm looking for is really quite unique and looks awesome! I have seen many on Etsy previously, but I can't seem to find any at the moment. They are the handmade notebooks/journals that are filled with random pages - e.g. some pages are painted, are covered in newspaper, etc. They are almost like a scrap journal. Any ideas where I can find one, or what to search on Etsy to find one??

Monsoon

I thought it would be fun to do a fashion-related post today, as I have my Biology HSC exam tomorrow; something completely irelevant to our kidneys, adaptations of plants, or the transfer of genetic information in DNA or RNA, is definitely welcomed by me :)

In my search for a fashion-related topic, I came across some really pretty clutches on the Monsoon website. It is a London based company who sells all kinds of bags, jewellery, hats, hair accessories, shoes, and basically anything fashion-related, except for clothes! Check out some of my favourite clutches from Monsoon below. I must add that I am partial to black and charcoal clutches. They're just so practical haha! Have a great Friday :)

Dirty Dancing

2009-10-20T00:52:00.000-07:00

Now I am terrified to post this actually. I'm terrified that the "Movie Mafia" is going to hunt me down, and torture me with repetitive movie quotes :O But I'm going to go ahead and post it anyway haha. You don't scare me!! ...okay well maybe a tiny bit :P

I don't like Dirty Dancing.

There we go. I've said it now. I watched it for the first time a couple of days ago (shameful that I had left it that long, considering I'm almost 18... I know), and I was actually kind of let down; disappointed. I did however LOVE the final scene where they dance and the entire hall ends up dancing the routine with them - did anyone question how they magically knew the routine perfectly? One of those "don't ask questions" perfect endings to a movie I guess haha. Sorry I killed it LOL!

Have you seen Dirty Dancing? Are you a fan? Where does your opinion lie? Let me know :)

Stampin' Up!

2009-10-03T19:42:00.000-07:00

If you are not already aware, I am a HUGE cardmaking fan and have a particular love for Stampin' Up! products. It is an American-based company, however it maintains a strong popularity in other countries including, Australia, New Zealand, and France. I think the above photos (all copyrighted by Stampin' Up! on their website found here) will explain my absolute OBSESSION with their stamps, cardstock, and other products.

You can find my cardmaking-based blog at Swiftly Created. As World Card Making Day was on Saturday 3rd October (yesterday) I will be posting the cards I made recently on my blog, so check it out :)

Have you used Stampin' Up! before?

What's your favourite product from SU! or other companies?

Funny People

2009-09-16T07:31:00.000-07:00

I went and saw 'Funny People' starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen, on Saturday night last week with a close friend of mine who I rarely get to spend time with. It was definitely nice to catch up, and have a few good laughs during the funfest of this movie.

Whilst there were a few 'just a little too long' serious moments, majority of the movie was fast-paced, funny, and witty. I wont give away too much of the plot, but if you get a kick out of sexual humour and a few crude comments, this is probably the movie for you. Check out more on the plot here.

What did you think of it? Or of any other movies out lately?
