mmmmmm, my house smells nice. :> my mummy is vacuuming and the vacuum has TONS of pine needles in it because our tree was half dead to start with, and so you could just look at it and an entire branch-worth of needles would fall off. so anyway, the vacuum makes the whole house smell like pine.

my nose hurts. :< i have no idea what happened to it, but the left of the underside bit is really sore. and i can't see anything there. my nose is looking for some sympathy i think..

I GO TO JAMAICA IN A WEEK!!!!!! by 4am this time next saturday i will have already gotten up and started to madly finish my packing.... wheeeee. i should probably start a list of what i want to take. hmmmmmm. that would be a good idea me thinks. yes indeed. SUNNY JAMAICA!!!!! hahahahahaaha!!! maybe the temperature will even be -30 when i leave so that i can miss all of that and you can all have the insides of your noses freeze together. (not a very pleasant feeling let me tell you. makes it rather hard to breathe actually...)

i'm surprised that people who go mountain climbing don't have a high nose-loss rate. because i don't know bout the rest of you, but when it was -45 and i had to walk between buildings at school, i'd be outside for less than 5 minutes and i could poke my nose all i wanted and never felt it. although, i suppose if you're moutain climbing, then you usually have more in the way of balaclavas on your head.. i actually saw someone at school walking around outside with a balaclava on his head. it was quite entertaining. especially since i didn't think it was THAT cold out.

i think if you wanted to get your nose pierced, you should go into the place, fill out all the forms then go stand outside and wait for your nose to become numb, then go in and get it pierced. then of course you'd have to get it done in the winter, but at least it'd be painless(ish)!

i'm going to go live on a tall ship (like the ones in pirates of the caribbean) for a year. at least, i want to. Allan (cait's smoochy-poo) told me about this one tall ship that you could go on. he had some of the details a wee bit skewed, but still. I COULD LIVE ON A TALL SHIP AND GO AROUND THE ENTIRE WORLD IN ONE YEAR!!!! oh i want to soooooooo bad!!!! but i don't think my mum'll let me take a year off school, so i may have to do it after i'm done with uni BUT I DON'T WANT TO WAIT THREE YEARS!!!! ARRRRRGGGG!!!! oh well. we'll see i suppose. siiiiigh. but still! I COULD LIVE ON A TALL SHIP FOR A YEAR!!!! and it's not just like a cruise, you're actually working on this ship and running it and sailing it! funfunfunfunfun!!!! :>
