Nicole Richie arrested, apparently she eliviates her menstrual cramps with Vicodin.. SNAP BITCH! Pitty you dont get your crimson wave at 39 kg Nicole.

I've been to pretty much every homebake festival since i was 15, its always been my favorite Australian music festival. This year i did notice something, it is the whitest most anglo festival ever.
Within 5 mins of arriving with Nick we were called "snobs" by a guy drapped in an australian flag and fake moustache. Maybe this was because of Nick's exotic looks and ethnic dress or my completely inappropriate festival outfit. Whatever it was, the place was packed with what seemed to be people who could just not get over the cronulla riots.... Big Day Out is usually filled with at least a small amount of mingling races. Lame-gay (laneway) festival is just totally the most mixed race of all....
So I managed to dodge the rain till about 1pm... in the VI area waiting for my bitch Rose to finish her wristband-wendy duties. Then it all got a bit much and Nick and I needed to feel a sense of order, so we went to find some wellingtons at David Jones and sit down for some coffee and cake.
I blow dried my hair under the hand dryer, and felt normal again.

Nina and Kim, they had poncho's but still got drenched. How amazing is the light behind the diamond.... That was the only bit of sun all day!

Jocelin ate some hot dogs, from the hot dogs of the world stand. It was so popular all day, Nicks english boss liked it too and spent 5 mins explaining his hot dog to me. I smiled politely.

Just after Todd and i copped some massive rain, i quickly tried to correct the harmful damage it caused to my fringe helmet.

Will was quite obsessed with this outfit, at this point my shoes were filled with swamp. I didnt care if there were 200 hot boys pilled up around me in a tent escaping the rain. I had just completely ruined my marc jacob flats and no one wanted to go and watch the Vines with me.
This was the days low.

Hicks came out of hiding for all of 4.5 mins.... Walker didnt leave the VI all day, but she was wearing thongs, smart move.

Dools complained alot all day, blah blah working blah blah Stacia i'm tired blah blah. Till he found the hoods, doesnt a mood change quickly when some aussie hip hop is introduced.

Grey hoods, all round.

Going slightly stir crazy...
I made sure that during silverchair we were way up the back so i could turn around in the boring parts (most of their new songs) and watch Bjorn again.

Thank you to Stacia the Un-Official Jay-z fanclub's minister of Photography.

Health Club is having a love song dedication night tonight.. It will be super romantic.

I waited an hour and a half in the cold for you... Lucky the next day californian nails had a new shade of nude!

Whats with the coat hanger?
Can someone please explain this concept to Luke and I?
I'm refeering to the planned new years eve fireworks, in which an image of a coat
hanger is going to be blazing all over the harbour bridge.
WHY? Is it a reminder to all the big fat david jones mums out there that the sales are almost over? I dont get it? The whole thing is just too funny for words, Luke and I are now going to have to make Coat hanger hat things for new years, they will be jazzed up for the special night real pretty though. Who's got spirit? WE DO!
Speaking of new years eve, looks like once again i will be doing a whole lot of nothing with my angry gay bearded best friend. Luke has been reminding me i'm really funny and the life of a party, but its kind of getting old. We are both getting each other "He is just not that into you" for christmas.

What is it with Li Lo writting all these letters? First was about her mourning of Robert Altman, she said in that letter
"If I can do anything for those who are in a very hard time right now, as I'm one of them with hearing this news, please take advantage of the fact that I'm just a phone call away....."
Well Linds, I'm kind of having a hard time right now and where the hell are you?
Last night i stood around for an hour and a half talking to people who knew i didnt want to talk to them because of a boy i like and dont like after a seeing a band, which i totally didnt go to for their musical ability. WHERE ARE YOU LINDS? AND WHATS YOUR PHONE NUMBER Luke would also like some help with a complaint letter he is writting to sunday life magazine.
LiLo has also written another letter, but it didn' t even make sense and why is she hitting on Al Gore?
Anyway, so ages ago i went to see this band Animal Collective @Newtown which totally should only be allowed to have elderly cabaret shows with Rhonda Birchmore, what is with the carpet and lounge chairs?

FYI I now have a fringe and look much better... But what a choice so many levels of fun!

I chose the socially responsible gaming area, you could win all these great prizes.... depressing much?

Not satisfied with having a minimal @Newtown experience.... I wanted live, breath and digest it.This was the mixed entrees Hick's and i shared, notice there is a missing calamari ring? We did and they deep fried just ONE and brought it out. Deep Fried should be named Deep Friend for fatties.

This was on the tropical singles themed deck, they were like real palm tress only metal and painted gold and in the smoking area on a night where most people need to smoke to keep up an illusion of cool and thin.

Can someone please get me off the damn machines?

After getting all hyped up on gambling, Hick's had to sit me down with a chai so i would snap out of it.


I wasn't counting on a summer romance because he is not romantic but if you kiss someone once, and then again, and again it kind of means more than a lump of coal.
Every time i tell my best friend Viv about boys i've met i'll always say "And the best thing is Viv, he is totally normal. Like completely normal, its great. He doesn't even notice that he will wear a clothing combination made up of 6 different themes."
Well that is the last time i waste my cute little outfits and kisses on normal!

Listening to :

*All the man hating classic's all the girls and anything written by that dykey lezzer Diane Warren.... I LOVE HER!

Oh yeah Luke and Cuz and I have totally named this summer, the summer of Stevie Wonder.


I love you swampy!

Nella...

P.s Dont go and see The Black Dahila, along with everything that happened this week IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
