Kitty prowling the town....

Okay so after getting mega excited about New Years, I never actually did a decent blog about it! 

Pani, R & E and myself organised a night out at Riva on St.Kilda marina. I had been so excited for it because I just assumed it would be commercial house all night and then sneaky sound system. I love a good dance after a few drinks... I remember a few years ago going to the Point and singing my guts out to Ricki Lee and my friend looking at me with the what the hell is going on, you must be off your face drunk look hahahaha. E came to get us around 8ish...and Pani and I were still mucking around with lip gloss, perfume and sculling the last dash of moscato. 


This my friends is the bomb! I love this Moscato, its got the perfect fizz and tastes yum. I intend to get this on the menu for after work drinks at the office, but hey any moscato will do! 

I didn't take any pictures of the outfit I wore, probably because I was enjoying the moscato too much to stop and do poses haha... but I just took some now so you can see my outfit. It isn't anything exciting, but I went for comfort, as I knew we would be on the lawn all night. 


My boobs look slightly gigantic in this.. maybe more than usual. This is NOT a good thing. A guy walked past me and used them as bongos followed by a creepy wink... is this how the youngins show interest now. I find this quite odd! FYI yes that is a shower cap in the back ground.. water on straight hair is my enemy! 

Okay so we get to Riva and realised that we had to purchase drink cards.. the choice was $100 or $40... how ridiculous, what if I want to spend $70 huh huh! But anyway Pani and I settled for the $100 card, and see how we go! The shot selection was limited and the only one that was okay were 'wet pussies'... is it just me or do you feel like thats just wrong for a drink name?!?

Our tickets were lawn access only but I'm glad we chose that, the VIP section looked totally lame. They were just standing there looking down at all the fun! 

These are the few photos I got from the night,...



I looked up at midnight, and this discoball was there to greet me! 



Yes thats a stage, and as usual my awesome photography shows EVERYTHING that is happening. 


Pani and myself... my golly we are hot! hahaha

We had a fun night, but it could have been a bit better. But as far as new years events I can't complain although the 1am finish sucked. The music.. I dunno, I thought it was too hardcore. I just wanted more commercial stuff I could also sing along to. They played Don't you worry Child and the crowd went nuts singing and stuff.. and it went back to the same lame stuff. I am not a big fan of sneaky sound system (they were headline act), but my friend E wasn't really impressed -- I don't think she knows all their stuff and she just wanted to hear them main stuff right away. I also thought everyone seemed in groups, so mingling was kinda awkward. But I guess it was New Years, you do want to be around your mates, not randoms. But after a few drinks, I must admit, I love a chat with weirdos hahaha 

A few weeks later we all went to Spice Market as my final night out before I left back to Gtown. I had fun, although it did take me a while to get into it. There were some dodgy guys that were amusing us all night, and this crazy girl that was way to in love with the podium - that was her terrain -- she really didn't want to share haha. I love crowd watching, just funny seeing how people operate. Guys standing on the sides of the room waiting to pounce, girls giggling and laughing in their groups tossing back their hair, guys asking you if your interested in their friend as opposed to their friend asking you. Sometimes I feel like we all still operate as if it is a year 8 social, except we can actually buy drinks and not smuggle them in haha. Was such a fun night, we did get our picture on the website, but it was not my finest. This always happens when I have club shots taken, I'm probably too messed up to care!

Looking Forward......

I've been in a odd kind of mood lately... and I think its because I'm trudging through life without any real goals. And goals are so important - you always need something to work towards, we all need some sort of purpose. 


This upcoming new year I want to get started on setting some proper goals and actually working towards them ... from now even! I remember in primary school writing letters to ourselves which we would write at the start of the year, and open at the end. I want to do this again! I want to ponder on this for the next few weeks and see what I can come up with - not off the cuff goals like go out more and eat less ice cream! 



Meanwhile this afternoon I met up with my two good friends for coffee at The Boat House. When we got there around 5pm and it was 37 degrees and we all looked drained before we even got chatting! Pretty soon the weather turned, and it was cold! Melbourne weather is so cray cray! Anyway we were talking about NYE and we all agreed that Riva is the way to go! Sounds like it should be fun.. esp having a group of us going! I went and got the tickets right away for Pani and myself - not taking the risk of waiting until payday to get them! Pani and I have learnt the hard way that getting NYE tickets is a nightmare last minute. So hopefully it will be a good night.. sneaky sound system will be there and Grant Smillie... and some other random people I haven't heard of! 



I was in Geelong last weekend to see family and organise Christmas cooking days (yes I am that ethnic that we have to block days for cooking food haha). I took mum out to lunch and then we went looking through the shops. There were so many good buys... I bought this cute dress from David Lawrence for my work Xmas party. Its a classic cut, so I figure I can wear it to both my mum and dad's side of the family for Xmas ... yes I'm being that thrifty with my purchases haha 





I was lucky enough to also get 20% off which made my day! I think they have great classic dresses, I just noticed they are having buy two, get the 3rd free. If I have a few hunderd to spare, I would def take this up!!! Click here if you are interested

We also ventured to Witchery and I go these cute earrings ... I thought they would go perfect with the dress...

Again I got to the counter and they were $29.95! If your haven't signed up as a Witchery member, I would def recommend you did. They have some awesome offers ... over the Christmas period they have been having the 12 days of Christmas sale... so many good deals to be had! 


Sometimes I forget my mum is in here mid 50s.. she bought this really cute Basque structured dress from Myer and these cute heels from Witchery. She also saw this adorable box clutch, which I must say I wouldn't mind myself, but I think she might get that from Santa (i.e. me) 


I would really like to test myself and see how long I can manage imposing a non useless spending rule. I am a terrible impulse shopper (earrings in this post prime example). I shouldn't really put a rule on this, just another rule I'll end up breaking haha 

I got a few instant tans I want to give a whirl this week... downside = back tanning. If you don't have someone around is it even possible to get your back done? Common girls, tell me your fake tanning secrets!
