Hi. My name is Rotae. And I... actually enjoyed the movie Twilight. LOLOLOL.

IKR?! WTF. LOL. But... I suppose if you go in hoping for the best, but expecting the worst, you'll never be disappointed XDDDDD It is WAY better than the book IMHO. And I only laughed inappropriately like 3 times!! Well... okay, like 7... >.> LOL. There are still thing that SEVERELY piss me off about it, but I'd give it like a 2.5-3 out of 5? :D AND. I have two more thoughts for art pieces from it! :D

Like Jo said, "I've spent $12 on worse things" LOLOL XDDDD

That's all I've really got to say about it... except, RPattz... you slay me like Buffy XDDDDD

OH. EXCEPT. WTF CINEMA?!?!! WHY WAS THERE NO HBP TRAILER?!?!!??!! PISSED OFF, MAN!! D:< :(

While I'm on the subject of being emo, I'm just going to post this here for my own benefit. I was commenting on friends moving away, and I think I need it in my own journal to remember when I'm missing mah Joshie <3

All I can say... is that you can still talk to each other, go and see him as often as you're able, write when you can, and even though it'll hurt... he'll still be there for you... because that's what true friendships are.

They can overcome all the obstacles that life throws at them. There is no distance between you so large that can EVER overcome them. They will still be your light in the dark - because they are what you've made them.

And true friends NEVER, EVER, give up on each other <3

:( *wibbles* I think I'm going to need that soon. LOL. *clings to Joshie* :D

The rules are that for 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day. Tag 8 people to do the same.

Day Four:
1. I saw Twilight and it was NOWHERE NEAR as bad as the book! OH CINEMA. YOU CAN MAKE ANYTHING BETTER *clings*
2. I put together this stunning piece of webcaminess for dA! Why YES, that is... FARMER'S UNION ICED COFFEE and KOREAN POTATO SNACKS along with ROTAE and her COUSIN REB XD
3. I helped out a friend with some advice :D
4. I LOLed at the radio when the DJ said that Robert Pattinson was her "free pass" with her boyfriend. THEN. This 30 year old woman rang up and said that HER free pass was the same as the DJ's. Only to go on about how "she liked him even before the movie - while she was reading the books" and how she'd "fallen in love with him" and the DJ didn't notice that this woman was talking about EDWARD and NOT Robert Pattinson, LOLOLOL XDDDD YOU LAME ARSE. YOUR FREE PASS IS WITH A FUCKING FICTIONAL CHARACTER. Even MINE is with a real person! I POINT AND LAUGH AT YOU, SO CALLED ARTHUR KING FAN-GIRL!! And if I'M laughing at your fangirlishness, then you know you're screwed, LOL XDDDDDDD
5. I commented back and forth with Joshie! <3
6. I watched High School Musical 2 and was pleased to find that mybabyangel's opinion of film is STILL the same as my own (in that we both think that 2 is the best of the 3)!! <3
7. I applied for some jobs in Sydney!!
8. I actually put up The British Half-Blood Prince Book Contest and am HOPING TO HELL that people actually participate, LOLOL XDDD

You getting sick of mah happi yet? LOLOL XDDDD Half-way there!! WHOAAAA LIVING ON A PRAYER!! :D

I stole the following meme from chen_san (who ended up being my OPPOSITE, LOLOL) and it's pretty accurate apart from the warm weather thing, LOL (I EVEN ORIGINATE FROM AUSTRALIA!! ZOMG!! SPOOKY!!)

You Are A: Parakeet!

This popular bird is kept as a pet in homes all over the world. Originating from Australia, parakeets like warm weather and lots of seeds and fruit. They are also known for being messy and quite loud! But you cannot look at one without falling in love.

You were almost a: Lamb or a Bear Cub
You are least like a: Turtle or a GroundhogTake the Cute Animal Test!

PHEW. Bed time I think. Night, guys!! <333

Peace,
Rotae

I'd like to thank all of you who were kind enough to comment on my last post. You really have no idea how much it means to me <3

So far as that last entry went... it wasn't ANYTHING to do with you guys. You are SO awesome, and are a constant source of support and love that I know I can turn to. And the Snaps Cup over @ H_E was just... so amazing. Some of you guys said some really insightful stuff, and it really touched me <3

( Click for what it was about )

ANYWAY. The day after was much better, and I came back down to Hobart and saw Joshie and Erika and Tom and I felt good again <3 Except of course that seeing Josh is a reminder that he's GOING HOME (to North Carolina) NEVER TO COME BACK AGAIN!! D: Oh well. I guess it's another excuse to go back to the USA, y/y? (with stopovers in California and Texas, AMIRITE?!)

I had a job interview today with a company based in Sydney! Yay!! I think it went quite well. But they've had over 100 applicants for the one job, so I don't think I'll get it, LOL.

In some very good news, Telstra FINALLY put my new internet speeds through, ZOMG. So now it takes under an hour to download Heroes/House etc, unlike the 3.5 hours it used to take!! WOOOOOO!! <3 Still haven't received my bill from last month though (I rang them three times already!!), and it's now three weeks late!! WTF. It's not like Telstra to NOT bill someone!! LOL XDDDD

In very good LJ news, you are now colour co-ordinated on my flist, which makes it SO MUCH EASIER to keep track of who is in H_E and how I know you guys, LOL. I'll probably clean up my filters sometime this week too. AND I HAS A NEW LJ PROFILE LAYOUT ZOMGGGGGGG IZ SO PRETTY. <333333 I TOTALLY HAD IT BEFORE hazy_crazy!! LOL XDDDD GO CHECK THAT SHIT OUT :3 And gimme a hug while you're there so I know you looked ;) IZ SO PRETTY WITH THE AWESOME NEW ELJAY PROFILES :3

OH. Btw, mybabyangel's testimonial was just SO EPIC that she gets a graphic from me :3 Whaddya want, dearest? :D

ANYWAYS. I heart it. And I heart my shiny new Obama/Apple/Pacman header *ROFFLES* *FLAILS* *SPAZZES* XDDDDDD

ALSO. TOM FELTON NEWS ALL AROUND ALKDDLJF:LSDKJF:LDSKJF:LF!! ADRENALINE JUNKIE ON TOMORROW NIGHT IN THE UK!!!! EEEEE!! I'm going to be up at 8am tomorrow to watch it from someone's computer camera, LOLOL. AND.

Feltbeats.com: Have you been interested in extreme sports since the show?
Tom: Well, mildly. I mean, I walk up hills.

ROFLMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO XDDDDD I LOLED.

Feltbeats.com: Can we expect an Ozbourne/Felton collaboration any time soon?
Tom: (Laughs) No, no, not really. Not really. I’m not really one to sort of shout it. He knew I had a guitar with me, and he actually had a harmonica with him, and we were meant to have a jam, but it never really came down like that. And I’m certainly not one to sort of push my music like that. I’d rather keep it relatively low key.

ZOMG TOM YOU'RE TOO MODEST ADLKJA;LSDKFJALSDJFAL;KSJDF.

Sigh. *melts*

I just ate possibly THE MOST PERFECT BLT EVER BTW. Thought you guys should know. aldkfja;lkdfja;lsdjf;laksjdf ALSO. ZOMG. You HAVE to check out this guys Bacon and Chilli-Chocolate Peanut Butter on a Brioche Bun!!! HEART ATTACK ON FANCY BREAD, BUT ZOMG IT'D BE SOOOOOO GOOD... MMMMMMMMMMMMMM...

Village is having a PREVIEW SCREENING of Twilight on the 7th of December (release is the 12th for the rest of Australia) here and my cousin is coming down for it - she loves it, I HATE it, should be fun y/y? XDDDDD ALSO. I'm dressing up as a Hufflepuff to it aldkfja;lkdsjfa;lskdjf;. YOU GUYS ALL HAVE TO DO THIS TOO AND TAKE PHOTOS. AND THEN SAY LOUDLY, 'WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS ISN'T DEDRIC'S SPIN-OFF?!?!?!' XDDDDDDDD

PHEW. That is all I think!! If you got through that... well... COOKIES TO YOU, NOM NOM NOM :3 *tackles* AND.

( THIS )

Peace,
Rotae

So, I had an exam thingy for the ABC Journalist Cadetship today. I don't think I made it through, but oh well! I did try to get in contact with the guy TWICE this week to ask about the format of the exam, but got no response, so I went into it really blind.

There were three sections A) general knowledge, B) punctuation and grammar (with a special section dedicated entire to apostrophes!! ZOMG WIN) and C) journalism writing. I think I got about 50% in the first, 90% in the second and about 65% in the third, LOLOL XDDDD

ANYWAY. What the point of this is... is that there were people there with MASTERS and PHDS in Journalism, and people who had worked in NEWSPAPERS, and here's me NO JOURNALISM EXPERIENCE. AT ALL. SRSLY. LOL. I was so amused. There were only 9 other people there... LOLOL. I'M GOING TO ASK THE QUESTION AGAIN. HOW THE HELL DID I MAKE IT THERE?! LOLOL.

And hey, I wasn't expecting to get THIS far, and now I know what they want, I can apply for it next year if I feel like it :D

YAY FAIL!! :D Phew. Now I get to sleep in again! YAY! LOLOLOL XDDDD

ALSO. I am making more Flameos and I'm going to sell them either on Esty or Ebay :D Which do you guys recommend?

Peace,
Rotae

Okay, so call me crazy, but it only occurred to me THIS WEEK that Pete Wentz is in Fall Out Boy O___o LOLOLOL.

My brain just never made the connection! I'd read, "Pete Wentz (lead singer of Fall Out Boy)" and it just wouldn't... click? Hahaha. ANYWAY. I bought the single "I Don't Care" a couple of weeks ago and about a week later my brain caught up with "Paparazziphotographed!PeteWentz = FallOutBoy's!PeteWentz". I know. I'm slow.

( Heroes 03x06 Dying of the Light Reactions AS THEY HAPPEN ZOMG )

Had a nice telephone call today! I applied last night for a Junior Graphic Design + Finished Artist job, and the recruiting woman rang me up and basically fangirled me over the phone, LOLOL!! I was so flattered! :D She was like, "Your work is so brilliant! Just between you and me, I have about 50 applications, but your portfolio is fantastic!" and my brain went "BZUH?!" LOL. I mean, I personally think my portfolio is kinna lame, coz, well... 90% of it is Harry Potter stuff ^^; LOL XD

ANYWAY. She wanted to know how srs I was about moving to Sydney, and I said that if I got a job there I could move there almost immediately, so she said she'd pass on my resume :D YAY! I'm not expecting to get anything, but it was a nice call to have this morning :D

Mmmm... I just had some Pan de Casa bread with honey and butter and mmmmmmmmmm... it was soooo good. I'm not a huge fan of honey, but I use it in cooking and once a year I have it on toast (I much prefer savoury to sweet things). But this was just... perfect! The butter and honey had melted into the bread and mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... NOM NOM NOM :3

Tom Felton's Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Timber, is 1 year old today, so happy birthday, girl! [/randomobservation], LOL XD STFU, THERE WAS A NEW INTERVIEW WITH HIM YESTERDAY AND HE SPOKE ABOUT IT. IT'S NOT STALKERISH FOR ME TO KNOW THAT. XDDDD

Okay. Bed now. This update was pointless. BUT IT DON'T CARE, I. DON'T. CARE!! I don't, care what you think, as long as it's about meeeeee, the best of us, can find happiness in MIEIEIEIEIEIEIESERY!! DAMN IT, PETE WENTZ, GET OUTTA MY HEAD!! XDDDDD I just like the "mieieieieieieiesery" thing that they do. It makes me LOL :D


I think it's awesome that these guys are obviously passionate enough to vote... BUT SOCIALEST and MAVRIK?! SRSLY?! THEY'RE OLD!! SHOULDN'T THEY KNOW HOW TO SPELL BY NOW?! AND THEY PUT IT OUT IN FRONT OF THEIR HOUSE?! FAIL. LOL XDDD
Peace,
Rotae

OMG YOU GUYS. I GOT INTO THE SECOND ROUND FOR AN ABC JOURNALIST CADETSHIP!! :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS IS SO EPIC. I mean, I'm two more rounds away still, but LOL, I GOT THROUGH THE FIRST ROUND, WHAT?!

Clearly these people are insane. I talked about DINOSAURS in my application!! I spoke about LiveJournal!! I HAVE NEVER STUDIED JOURNALISM IN MY LIFE!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLABCWHUT?!?!!!? XDDDDDDD

Anyway, I have to go and sit an EXAM *headdesks* to make sure I'm up to writing about current affairs and stuff and GUH, writing style D: I HATE ENGLISH EXAMS, I ALWAYS SUCK AT THEM, HAHA XDDDD

OH WELL. This was epic. I got through the first round with, I'll repeat it again, NO JOURNALISM EXPERIENCE AT ALL!! I DIDN'T EVEN TAKE IT IN HIGH SCHOOL! I'VE NEVER DONE ANYTHING REMOTELY JOURNALISTIC!!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL I AM AMUSED. THIS ARE FUNNY. And, you know, really scary. LOL. XDDDDDD

ANYWAY. Wish me luck for next Friday! :D

MOVING ON!! I has a little art thingy to show you:


IT'S FLAMEO!! THE PHOENIX!! XDDDDD
ISN'T HE CUUUUUUTE :3:D He's next to the Fire Extinguisher in case he needs to be put out :D LOLOLOL.

LOL. We had to make something crafts/HP for a contest at hogwarts_elite and this was my entry :D I didn't place, but I like him all the same!

He's made of felt - 6 pieces hand stitched together to create a ball, and then the yellow stiff felt is glued on with craft glue. And he's stuffed with cotton buds, hahahaha

And now, two memes! I don't usually post these, but they're kinda freakishly accurate 0.o

( I'm a Katherine! )

AND ZOMG YOU'RE ALL SO SHOCKED I'M A PEACE PATROLLER. I NEVER TALK ABOUT PEACE, RIGHT?! XDDD

My Liberal Identity:

You are a Peace Patroller, also known as an anti-war liberal or neo-hippie. You believe in putting an end to American imperial conquest, stopping wars that have already been lost, and supporting our troops by bringing them home.

Take the quiz at www.FightConservatives.com

Kk. I'm off to get chips from the hot guy at the Mako who makes them SO NICE S:LDKFJ:LSDKJF:LSKDJF:LSDKJF:LDSKJF :D YAY FRIDAYS!!

Peace,
Rotae

So, I didn't get the job :( Oh well. Part of me is kinda glad, but most of me is "BLAH" LOL XDDD I JUST WANT MONEY. GIVE ME A JOB!! LOL XDDD Oh well, I'll have to go in to get unemployment, I guess :( Ugh.

Awww, I was going to do this:

Pass a Secret Note ✘ Meme
BUT ALL THE COMMENTS ARE FULL! LAME! LOL XD I suppose you could do it here? Anonymous in on, and there's no IP. BUT UGH. I'm always so late to the partay! XDDD

The light in my bathroom blew out last night!! It made this huge, "BOOM" noise and then smashed into a thousand pieces on the floor, with the metal bit still in the light! I won't be able to go in there for like a month without shoes on now! XDDD

And I'm losing in both my categories (Biggest Fangirl/Fanboy and Most Corrupted by LOLspeak) in guad's POLL THINGY!! UGH. SO LAME!

I should be upset, shouldn't I? All that kinda sucks.

So why can I not stop grinning?! XDDDD I'M SO WEIRD!! XDDDD

Peace,
Rotae

Well, hands up all those who got fired OVER THE PHONE before work this morning...

*raises hand*

0.o Eh... I know, right? Basically the work I was doing was no longer needed. Goddamn it.

Anyway... they gave me two weeks notice, so I have those two weeks so find things I might be interested in. But it's just at the most SHIT time, because I'm GOING AWAY FOR A MONTH IN TWO MONTHS TIME. HELLO?! And now I'm not saving money, I'm losing it. God freaking damn it. GAH.

I dunno... these are my options:

1. Get a shitty job that I can just quit after two months - probably end up doing this one.
2. Move back home next month and try to save money that way (I haven't discussed this option with my parents yet though, lol)
3. Look for work in my industry somewhere like Sydney, where I can live with relatives for a few months, go to the US looking for work and either come back or move over there
4. Look into moving to Sydney permanently

MEH. Annoyed, to be perfectly honest. I kinda saw it coming, but it still sucks.

Oh well. Life goes on, and I have some options to seriously consider over the next couple of weeks. AND. The Universe has given me some consolation prizes in my final nominations for H_E...

( Click for those... )

And this new picture of Tom at Emma Waston's 18th Birthday Party :D (Dan and Rupert didn't attend 0.o - Bonnie, Katie, Matt, Alfie, Evanna and Tom were all there though 0.o Weird)


So it's not been the worst day ever... :) I shall pull through :D I went back to sleep after the phonecall and had a dream that I was in Death Proof the movie, and I was with Dean Winchester taking on Stuntman Mike, and we kicked his arse, so it can't have all been bad XDDDD

Meh. Anyway :D Sorry, I'll reply in a bit. I need some fresh air... maybe I'll drive up Mount Wellington and watch the sun set :)

... or maybe I'll watch Angel... >.> LOL XDDDD

Peace,
Rotae

Quick update today to say...

I am seriously contemplating moving to the US at the end of the year. 0.o I was looking at their job opportunities online and... wow. There are jobs over there that I am SO qualified for... LOL! I'm already going to look into interviews and stuff when I'm in California and possibly New York (though I have less time there with SO much to see/do). Kinda scary :D

We'll see how the trip goes :D

I totally feel as though the world is my oyster apple XD I dun like seafood :D

I'm also currently drawing a pencil portrait like those two! Stay tuned :D It's been AGES since I've drawn one. I only have an 8B pencil atm, LOL. XDDDD And it's about two inches long, ahahah XD I shall have to buy some more pencils :D
