Cars, Hobbies and all things nice!!

I have so much to say, that i dont know where to begin...


Took my nephew out on saturday evening to watch "cars"... he fell asleep halfway through the movie, but i enjoyed it tremendously. It was soo soo cute... The "girl" car,(Sally) was a lilac porsche, and the sound effects of the movie were so brilliantly done, that when she drives off, u can be forgiven for thinking that a porsche just passed u by... the storyline was really brilliant and Owen Wilson's voice was perfect as "Lightning McQueen."

The where Lightning lands up in, is called Radiator Springs, a neglected small town in Carbarator Canyon. His new found best friend is a rusty truck called Tow Mater, and the dude that owns the tyre fitment centre is Italian, so his son( the forklift) has made a Leaning tower of Tyres outside their garage.... it was adorable!!!

I would def. rate this movie a close second to the Shrek editions. My favourite quote from the movie rite now is" U don't need to know where u going, u should just remember where you've been" (im sure i will pick up a few more, after watching it a trillion times at home on dvd..)

Tried going to watch The BREAK-UP yesterday , but got to the Zone at half-five exactly, and the only seats available were in the front row, so we gave it a miss and went for supper instead(food is always an option) ... planning on going to watch it tomorrow(hopefully, cos im running experiments simultanously today so, i think i deserve at least a halfa day off, and then i will come in after 2 o' clock tom, and do another quick exp.

Latest Hobby
in between my busy schedule and juggling time, i try to always take up new hobbies, which i get a really good start on, and then my interest rapidly dwindles.. i started Waterpainting, bought the canvas and the works , read up as much as i could 'bout it, and after my first pic (which my brother said looked like a preschool child had painted" i shelved the idea. a few months later, i ventured into a bead shop in melville and hence, a new hobbie was born. however, i had no patience to sit and make swarovzki crystal earrings and necklace pieces, so i stuck to making really pretty key-rings with the bauble crystal at the end of the ring etc. but, after making and giving them to all my friends, family and work-mates, I ran out of keys, to attache the key-rings to..... and thats when my new and current hobby was born. while vegging out, and watching TV, i saw an advert of the new "Creative Papercraft" , went out and bought the first edition, (wherein i saw all the cool free stuff u receive if u subscribe)so, i am now a subscriber to Papercraft, and every two weeks I have to go the post office, stand in a long and S-L-OW queue of ppl, so that i can receive my parcel!!! and thats not all, does anyone knbow how much handmade paper costs? I have now officially spent hundreds(if not over a thousand ) of rands on bits n pieces of coloured paper that were once poor trees, but had the misfortune of being grown in the wrong place at the wrong time, and now, they have been turned into Japanese paper, Handmade paper, acid-free paper, silk paper, crepe paper ... but, nevertheless, this is a hobby which i can actually DO, and the end-products are quite pretty... so, if anyone hasnt had their birthday yet this yr, u know what kinda birthday u'll be getting... A handmade one specially from Ruby!!!!
(gotta go work now, so,my best-friend's "tea- serving " story will have to be told tomorrow!!! )
