Childhood crushes

May 8th, 2008

This morning I had a blast from the past when I pulled into the petrol station to fill up my car with flowing gold. I spotted a guy as I drove in and thought “mm he’s cute”. Didn’t think anything more about it until I got out of the car and turned to see him smile at me and then I realised who he was.
My “boyfriend”/crush from Intermediate (junior high school, I was 12). Oh. My. God. I just smiled back. Yes, I probably should have said hi, but I think we were both slightly in shock. I’m now 23. Over ten years later!! Come on, that deserves shockness.
So I’m sorry but there is no delicious scandal to write about this topic… that’s the end.

But this leads into my Thursday Thirteen for this week; celebrity childhood crushes. I had a huge thing for the pretty-boys I am noticing.

1. Brad Renfro

2. Devon Sawa

3. Zac Hanson

4. Jonathan Taylor Thomas

5. Brian Littrel

6. Nick Carter

7. Justin Timberlake (from his N*Sync days)

8. Leonardo DiCaprio

9. River Phoenix - Stand by Me

10. Andrew Keegan - Camp Nowhere

11. Mark Paul Gosselaar - Zack Morris - Saved by the Bell

12. Austin O’Brien - My Girl 2

13. Elijah Wood

Thank God I am over that stage now… and I must say Justin Timberlake has just got better with age.

13 of my current obsessions

April 10th, 2008

I’m one of those people who once they enjoy something they will abuse it until they no longer like it and are totally over the craze. So 13 of my current obsessions:


1. Leona Lewis’s song Better in Time. I love it. Better in Time

2. Sugar-free Red Bull. Maybe from my long study hours this last week. And sitting tests at 6-8pm really isn’t good for the brain after you’ve been studying since 8am that morning. It’s such a shame they make you work for your damn degree.

3. Coffee. Once again, the caffeine maybe? But I used to only drink one cup a day, but lately it’s been 3-4 a day.

4. Macro photography. I got into this for Macro Monday. Now I’m loving it.

5. Red Nail Polish. Looks so awesome. I need to get mine re-done.

6. Black Ugg Boots. I don’t have any yet but am determined to buy some for this winter and wear them everyday to Uni with jeans. Comfy!

7. MSN. I know. Sad? But lately, like the past two weeks, I have been on it quite often. Prior to that I hadn’t been on in about 12-18 months.

8. Books. Novels, true stories, everything!! I always have to have a book going.

9. The UK/Europe. Since decided on a month and year to go (July 2009) it’s all I can think about and I am constantly coming up with new places I want to visit - e.g. Clovelly, North Devon. I am told that no vehicles are allowed in the town. Looks very English to me.

10. Tuna and crackers. This seems to be my lunch everyday. Mine doesn’t look as fancy as the photo. I just have Thai Sweet Chilli tuna on crackers. No frills.

11. Grey’s Anatomy, The Hills, Desperate Housewives, Men in Trees and any other chick-television show you can think.

12. Noodle Canteen. It’s delicious and not very expensive!
chinese & chopsticks

13. Oddfellow mints. These things are so easy to eat!
