Oh, I LOVE awards season! I feel as if I’m paying more attention to the SAGS, or the BAFTA’s lately, but I love TV and Film coming together for the Golden Globes. Love it! So, generally I always print out a sheet of my picks at work, and squeal or gasp at just who wins, live – at work, since I can’t be home to watch it. Refresh button is my best friend. I’m sharing my picks of who I think should win, and who I think will win. Sadly, I don’t always think the two will match.

Sometimes I’m blindly optimistic, but I’m taking great pride if I get more than 5 picks right :) Onto the picks! Click to scroll through, and make your own :)

A few days, heck a week into the New Year and I have a dream. Nothing too philosophical – but I’ve set a few things in motion, including new shoes (Nike+ running shoes!) and a running coach (gulp). So, I have set my sights on pretty dresses, love and sparkles. Wish me luck :)

You know I’m not a summer person when I start gushing over new flavours of Slurpees at 7/11 right? This is true. I live in Australia and I just struggle during summer. But you know what helps? A nice frosty beverage. Not beer. Ew! But a Slurpee.

This summer, they will have eleven favourite and new flavours featuring my personal fave, Lemon Lime Bitters, as well as Orange Mandarin, Tropical Mango and a world first – Ginger Beer. (Trivia: I’ve never tasted ginger beer in my life, let alone Slurpee-fied. Yes I just made that up)

Its here! The last day of 2011 – and I feel as if movie wise, it was a better year. It was harder to pick ten, so I took advantage of the year being 11, and wham added one in. And even then I worry I’ve forgotten something from the start of the year, but ahhh. Here it is. Click for the list..

I’m a nerd. I don’t know if I’ve told you this. But in different ways, where I really love to learn about new things, and just how things ‘work’.
Lately, I am loving the website Basenotes. Fragrances have honestly always boggled my mind. I simply cannot really comprehend all the scents that comprise a perfume – I can’t comprehend what freesia will smell like once paired with gardenia, or pear. There are so many perfumes on the market, high end designers, fragrance houses, and ‘celebrities’ that it can be quite overwhelming. How do you know what to look for? Surely, its not all about the bottle? Its not all about whether you like a celebrity or not. How do you decide? ]
