Close to Heaven

Today I watched a wonderful piece of television, it showed what television can really do when its put to good use.

I was in awe as I watched this footage and had to myself in disbelief, "How could I not know about this piece of television?" and "why have I never before searched for this amazing experience?". This piece of wonderous telly also acted to re-affirmed my love for Charles Bud Tingwell.

So to all of you in the blogging community I wish you luck. What you are about to watch( if you click on the link below) is some of the most amazing scences that have ever graced Australian television screens....

... so please indulge yourself and CLICK HERE to be thrilled!

He's our Hero

Who can name these crazy kids and their crazy rings?


Well, there was:
EARTH: Kwame from Africa
FIRE: Wheeler ( a bloodnut) from North America
WIND: Linka from the USSR or the former USSR
WATER: Gi from Asia
and the crappy ring went to South America
HEART: Ma-Ti

So.... What ever happen to Marty after the show went off the air?

More Spagetti, I Say!

"Play with me, Minnie.
Play with me, please.
We can stand on our heads.
We can hang by our knees."

"Oh, no.
I can't play.
I can't play with you , Freddy.
Not now.
Can't you see?
I am eating spagetti."

"Now you can do it.
Now you can play.
We can jump on the bed for the rest of the day."

"No, I can not.
I can not jump and play.
Can't you see?
I need more.
More spagetti, I say!
I love it.
I love it.
I love it.
I do.
I love it so much!"

"More than me?"

"More than you.
I love it on pancakes
with icecream and ham.
With pickles and cookies,
bananas and jam.
I love it with mustard
and marsmellow stuff.
I eat it all day.
I just can't get enough.
I eat it on truck,
and I eat it in trees."

"You eat it too much.
Won't you play with me,
PLEASE?"

"I can run in spagetti.
And ride in spagetti.
I can jump.
I can slide.
I can hide in spagetti.
I can skate on spagetti,
and ski on spagetti.
And look at this picture.
That's me on spagetti."

"Spagetti. Spagetti.
That's all you can say.
I am going to throw your spagetti away.
I am going to throw it all over the bed,
in the grass,
in the mud,
in the paint,
ON YOUR HEAD!

Oh, Minnie,
that look on your face!
You look bad,
You look big.
You look green.
You look sick
You look sad."

"You are right.
I am green.
I feel sick.
Yes, I do.
I think I will rest.
I will sit here with you."

"Let me take this away now.
I think that I should.
And then we can play.
Mmmmmmmm! Spagetti is good.
I love it.
I love it.
I love it.
I do.
I need more spagetti.
I can't play with you."

"But now I can play.
I can play with you, Freddy."

"Not now.
Can't you see?
I am eating spagetti."

Why Tuesdays are the saddest nights...

On tuesdays I play netball this means that I miss out on two very Fun/important things: Cheap movie night AND Neighbours.

These are neigbours Stars ROCKING it out on set!

I hate Ned(boy in green), but Dr.Karl is wonderful(blue)!

Look! You can even buy Dr. Karl's Cd!

Be enlightened! Watch neighbours week nights from 6:30 pm.
( Tuesdays are the saddest nights...)

Pelly-can do anything!

Blogging is for losers

On Monday night Marty had a bath. While Marty was batheing I watched Hotel Babylon in his lounge room. Sometimes when Marty feels dirty he likes to have a bath and get rid of all the dirt. Sometimes I wonder whether or not Marty has a rubber duck and If he doesn't have one would he like one(?).

On Tuesday night Marty played a computer game where you shoot other things. His player was called Spike and he started to yell out his name when Spike was dying. Sometimes Marty is sad. Marty made me some tea - Marty likes tea but not just 'English Breakfast' tea because he has refined tastes. Sometimes Marty gets angry when the tea isn't right - "milk in first or milk in second?" he thinks to himself. Marty gave me a chocolate muffin and made me watch rovelive on Tv. Marty didn't have a bath on Tuesday night.

On Wednesday Marty had to get up early because he was getting his hair cut. I got my hair cut on monday - sometimes I think that Marty likes to copy me. He once got his hair cut exactly the same as me. I wonder whether Marty had a bath on Wednesday or if he just felt like a shower. Sometimes Marty finds it hard to choose between a bath or a shower.

Sometimes Marty likes to laugh. He is a funny boy. I think Marty just had a shower today but I don't really know. Sometimes Marty likes to be funny when he is on the phone and he will just play music and be silent - so then the person he is on the phone to is silent as well. THen when Marty picks up the phone again he says "WHAT" really loudly.

Marty is funny. I wonder whether Friday is bath day?

Yayness! "We are Whispering because we're communists..."

Cheesed off...

On tuesday night I played indoor netball.

We were down our GS (Goal Shooter) and as that posistion doesn't run very much I said I would play that posistion [I still feel tired and sick * COuGh* CoUgH* and I can't run much because I get exhusted very easily]. I am usually a defender and I am not so good at attacking - so this was going to be a funny game.


When I get on the court I always talk to my player (GK) - this generally makes the game better and more fun. When I said "Hello, how are you?" to the goal keeper she rolled her eyes before squaking out a angry 'hi'.

As soon as the game started she was all over me like a rash - now kids this IS what a defender is meant to do BUT she was "intimidating" by crushing her body into mine. Because she was slow she couldn't defend and even though she was continually pulled up for contact she didn't stop hurting me - she even scratched my face! All the time while she was barging me she was saying "for god's sake..." because I was albe to move around her.

Anyway the after one of our Center breaks (C throws the ball to someone in the centre third) our WA was tripped over and hurt herself. The ball came flying toward my third and I picked up the ball and walked over to where the WA was lying. As I was walking over the GK came over and SNATCHED the ball out of my hand saying "Thats my ball", to which I replyed "Settle down, someone's hurt alright"...

After the game had finished I shook her hand and held on to it for a moment while she looked away NOT making eye contact. I should have said " YOU STUPID HEAD, learn to be a good sport or just f**k off", Instead I said " Good game, try not to take it so seriously though" and she barked back at me "Well if you stopped barging me..." [Ah huh! Yes she was a physco].

Maybe this girl had emotion problems to come at me so fiercely (and hurt me), I would like to think so. The game of Netball does, however, bring out the worst in girls - a mean and competitive need to win at all costs.

This situation actually makes me think of a Simpson's QUOTE :
"Well Mrs Simpson, some people are just Jerks".

There are alot of things we can learn from SpongeBob

You know kids, we can learn alot from the Flaming Lips song "Spongebob & Patrick Confront the Psychic Wall of Energy".
It has a very good message, that to have a good life you HAVE TO find a way to be HAPPY.



I will count you in, for us all to SING....One...Two...Three....Four....

Patrick, you see, I'm growing a mustache

And though I know I must ask you

Does it really make me look like a man?

Spongebob, being a manager is a tough job

I hope you're picked to be the best spongeboss they've had

Working like a dog at the Krusty Krab

Now wait a minute

I think we hit a wall

I think we hit a psychic wall

Maybe we're just young and we won't know 'til we're old

Too young to free ourselves from this lonely fish bowl

Some kind of wall

Some kind of psychic wall

Some kind of wall

Some kind of psychic wall

We can get a burn

Come on, let's find a way to be happy

Not like Plankton, he will never be satisfied

Always complaining about his life

To his computer wife

You think he would've found by now

To be sought as a king

We don't need a burn

Just what you always wanted to know....

I was INSPIRED by Mark's blog about Wikipedia (for once he had a blog that wasn't about TV)!

You know what, even though Wikipedia doesn't get everything right it sure got one thing right..... NEIGHBOURS!

"Hoooorrraaahhh!" I hear you yell! Yes, you read it right Neighbours is important enought to be on Wikipedia! Whoo - hoo.

So settle down kids, let Wiki' tell you all about those lovely Neighbours........WAIT.... No! you don't need to know the history (I know you're all closet fans), how about we remember the pets of Ramsey Street.

• Dahl the galah (1994 onwards) - A galah that originally belonged to Lata Chatterji. Lata gave the bird to her boyfriend Brett Stark when they were forced to break up by Lata's brother Vikram. When Brett left, he gave Dahl to Libby to look after and it has lived in the Kennedy house ever since. However when Karl used to live in the house, Dahl sometimes made him angry.
  ( My favorite bit was went Dr. Karl got angry- he made me laugh)
  
• Casserole "Cassie" the sheep (1995-2006) - Cassie the sheep is to die this year, a funeral to be shown in the next few months.
  ( This was Billy's sheep. When I was in year 5 I though Billy was a babe)
  
• Audrey the dog (2002 onwards) - originally owned by Libby Kennedy, named after Audrey Hepburn. Ran away a while ago only to be found when Mal Kennedy accidentally ran her over. She survived, and now lives with Libby's mother Susan. Joe Mangel claims that Audrey has a romantic interest in Bouncer 5.
  ( When Libby moved away Audrey came back to the good place- Ramsey Street!)
  
• Bob the dog (1997 onwards) - originally belonged to Sarah Beaumont. When she asked for him to join her in her new home abroad, Toadie and Stu duped her by sending a lookalike in his place. However, Sarah recently revealed in Annalise's documentary that she knew all along that the dog Toadie sent her was not the real Bob.
  ( Ahhh, Toadfish.... he's great. Bob is cool too BUT he does poo alot.)
  
• Harvey the dog (2000 onwards) - The Scully's family dog. Joe Scully accidentally ran over Harvey, a stray dog, on his building site. He brought him home and it was decided that they would keep him.
  ( The scully are a crap family and the dog sucks too)
  
• Bouncer 5 (occasionally abbreviated to B5) (2005 onwards) - A lazy greyhound that Joe Mangel is unsuccessfully trying to train to become a racing dog. Joe also claims B5 has a romantic interest in Audrey, as the only time B5 moves faster than a slow walk is to chase Audrey. As his name suggests, Bouncer 5 is the fifth incarnation of Bouncer, Joe's original Labrador from earlier in the series.
  ( ANYTHING associated with Joe Mangel is great! Long live bouncer 5)

The Original Bouncer was the best, in one storyline they follow "BOUNCER'S DREAM". Damn fine Australian Televsion!

Pet Hates #2

Being at Valentine Public School when I feel DAMN sick while I get strange looks from old grandma's [I know they are saying "You're too young to have a child..."(and they are right... I am just picking up my little sister)]!!!

THEN,
To make it worse, kids start "singing yi yi yippy yippy yi..." not only is this an annoying song it increases my head ache no end.

PLUS,
I am hot and cold all at the same time.

I feel miserable. I will make the next post happier - at least I'm not vomiting! ah ha!

Wonky, sexy, incredible....

You all should read "The Time Traveller's Wife". It is quite possibly one of my favorite books.

Its all about time (if you didn't already guess that from the title) with a jolted reality where the time changes constantly. All the characters are flawed in such a believable and recognisable characters. This book is one that sticks in your head and doesn't and makes you want to time travel (but not like Henry).

Here is what the book says its about (It's hard to describe):

"The Time Traveller's Wife is the story of Clare and Henry, Clare met Henry when she was six and Henry was thirty-six, Henry met Clare for the first time when he was Twenty-eight and Clare was Twenty. Impossible but true, because Henry suffers from a rare condition where his genetic clock periodically resets and he finds himself pulled suddenly into his past or future..."

This book messes with time, which is one of my favorite things to do! How much free will do you really have? How much of your life is determined?

It also has a lot of decent poetry. The prologue begins with this lovely poem:

LOVE AFTER LOVE

The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will sit and smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give Bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the deperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

-Derek Walscon

Make me happy, read the book so I can talk to someone about it.

Shamless

Father of the year!

To the callings of my heart....

I love Muppets.
They are wonderful!

Middle of the hill

"And you can never really see the top from the bottom. I don't pay enough attention to the good things while I've got them"

While I was listening to Josh Pyke (borrowed from Caramel Pitt - AL FOIL) and looking at the album artwork I decided that:I want a tattoo!
Now this might seem like another passing cheesey idea BUT i think that a fish tattoo would be ace! Maybe that could be my New Years Resolution : get a tat!

Who wouldn't like the look of these fishes!

It is quite possible that it will hurt a bit but it will be worth it to have a life-long scar! heh heh heh....

p.s. Mark: the blogging community is growing... yay...more nerds.

Ouch!

Today as I was waving at Ange and Kiggles leaving I was Bitten by an Ant. Now my foot is red and stinging. OUCH!

There is an important lesson to be learnt ( its either): Never wave good bye to people OR dont stand on Ant Hills.

(* N.B - the Ant did not look like picture displayed)

Can you read my thoughts?

Perhaps the funniest man alive. He has such Beautiful hair!

Just when you thought you knew how truely cool I am...

I LOVE ABBA! I always have. In 1994 my Dad bought me 'The ABBA Gold' Cd and I learnt the words and actions to all those golden ABBA Hits!

This came in handy when I was in year 6 ( last year of Primary School) and the 'Eke'ster and I, dressed up as ABBA to win the school talent quest. We dressed up in two of the finest 60's dresses in the Murray Collection and mimed the words of 'Waterloo' for the whole school, this fine rendition was aided by some magical actions to the words. The competition was tough as we lined up against some mega acts, including TLC, The Spice Girls , Coolio (Gansters Paradise Song) and the Backstreet Boys.

Our act was way cool, we got one boy to pretent he was playing the piano and Jed (who lived around the corner from me) to play guitar! Our dresses, the miming its no wonder we won! In ABBA's words "the winner takes it all...."

Very Scary

Characters from Neighbours are going to die.
It is really scary - while half the cast are on a plane trip to somewhere in Tasmania.
THEN some physco puts a bomb on the plane and it blows up - and they are all going to have to swim to Tassie if they want to survive.
Cast on the plane ; Susan, Alex, Sky, Dylan, Paul, Izzy, David, Lil, Serena, Elle and Connor.
Four of the above mentioned are going to die! Can you guess?
My bet is:
David, Lil, Serena and Susan! this is terrible! I love Susan. She is awesome.
I am very upset and disturbed. hmmm, I dont like it at all.

But I do hope that the Bishops die because they are boring - and I really dispise Serena.
At least my two favorite characters will not die! Long live Toadie and Joe Mangel! They are the best.

BTW - does anyone want to come the Neighbours meet the stars night in sydney? It will be fun... I promise!

Anyway!
Til next time,
Cheese.

Sweet Dreams til Sunbeams Find You...

I am so obessed... So I think I am going to leave my BLog alone for awhile....(you can see how long I last)... take bets I dare you. This is going to be a large post so you can savour the cheese goodness!

I am moving on to ZINES! (Pronounced Zines not Zeens.)
They are pretty cool if they are done right - expect these as Christmas presents kids.

This Is Not Art went really well! Like last year I didn't get to see much because I was doing TINA stuff. But What I did see was good. Saturday was the best! I didn't have to send faxes and ring people and generally be a PR Biatch. I got to work in the Bar which was loads of fun (even though I am clumbsy as hell I didn't stuff up once!). I was really excited and happy, so it sorta put a downer on the experience when a PERSON I know asked me if I was intoxicated- I wasn't, this comment annoyed me, I can be happy/silly without alcohol...

After the Bar it was TRASHDANCE! And I did get drunk because I didn't have to pay for drinks! Horrahhh! Trashdance is better at the Cambridge but It was still fun at the festival club! Thankyou first timers Janet, Cuppit, Ange and Co, Fiona, Jo and Co. and the Usual Kids for coming along. You were ace! I hope you come again! Penguin dances, stupid dances, Mapole dances, hugs from a drunk Adam, more dancing til late in the night... all made for a top night!

In classic Cheese style I did have a embarrising moment : the bedroom philosopher remembering me as the girl who had the nervous breakdown on the phone... kind of funny.

Yesterday (Sunday) TINA they had a huge street fair closing off one portion of Auckland st (Between King and Hunter) - there were markets where arty/crafty stuff was being sold...
I got 5 badges! Hoorah! They go like this: "Yeah! WHales!","Eels are Creepy", "I love Cliches", "I Liked them before you" and a free "Oh No" - There was a special deal Marty actually bought the 5th one "Look how Fucking Indie I am". Go Badges!
MARK! I lost my 'medal' at the 3 Monkeys. I went looking for it but it is lost. I was very annoyed.Its very sad.

Then in the night Jo, Marty and I had 'Lans' for dinner and then went to Jo's house and watshed 'Get over it'. I Love trashy teen movies and this one is corker! " Put your hand down little Steve..."

All in all I have had a very busy couple of weeks! It is a relief that TINA is over, I dont know if I will work on the festival next year but we will see... i am not sure if I want to be TINA's biatch anymore. It was nice to come home today, I have been living out of White Lightning and that is only fun for so long!

Now there are only 5 weeks of uni left! WOW! How time flies, just today I turned over a new page in my Harry Potter Calendar! Oh how time is an elusive beast!

Speaking of elusive beast... How Excitng! Giant Squids do exist! I thought Jo made them up! And they were found in Japan... Mark have you been hunting?

Anyhoo... "Lets all go out theres no time to waste yeah... and if life gets you down just go out and taste it and put on your Favorite Jeans. Now you can take them on - Hell, you can do anything!"
So til my next blog (which will be a fair while) have fun kids!
Don't worry kids, Cheese is just taking a break!

Best Joke Of TINA

I Heard a very funny joke today from the bedroom philosopher.

What sounds like a bell and is brown?


DUNG!

What a corker!

The Play of Angst.

As part of TINA the Tantrum theatre group of Newcastle put on a play in the 3 Monkeys today.

It was soo wanky. I didn't really like it. Too much angst - as Joconut said "It was just immature". Which I think perhaps it is. VERY ANGST, VERY WANKY!

Anyway,
The play did have one GREAT line in it!

In the theme of 'The Island' famous line : "MY NAME IS LINCON".
The play had a corker " I AM NOT LOLITA".

I would have laughed but the actor who spoke the line was sitting next to me ( they perfromed around you) - She also threw sugar at me.

PARKED!

Yesterday Kiggles got parked in.

She was eating Curry and some body - who was working in Darby St. Parked her in. It was a bit funny.

She tried to get Angela to Reverse out but there wasn't enough room. I think she was quite stressed - i thought I would blog this so she can remember to blog this story on Her BLOG!

RUUUUBBBBYYYYYY- Don't take your love to town...

The last week has been very strange.

The Cheese feels odd.

Hmm, this could just be tired-ness and most likely is.
So tonight I am taking Kenny Rodgers advice and NOT taking my love to town. I am taking a break! You know what? I am going to BLOG!

TINA has been running the last 3 days and I have just been LOST. This is the worst feeling in the world, and its the one feeling that the kids just don't understand.

I just think it would be easier if someone else sorted out my life for me - hmm, but I suppose thats the point and what your meant to be doing anyway.... I just want to skip the sorting and have it sorted for me. Like how a maid would fold your towels. Dead easy mate.

I feel so old.
I'm so angsty.... ( Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)

Katie Cheese Warping Young Minds

She sure is warped!

Nice One, Geeza...

Vote for your favorite movie!

Lets make FERRIS win!

Hair!

Mark is complaining on his blog that he can't work computers.
So I thought I would help him out and post his NEW HAIRCUT on

the internet!

There was one problem, I don't know which picture is Mark...

Do you?

Mixed Up.

For my birthday I got an i-pod. Its pretty good. But my Mixed tapes are better.

Yes, There is the shuffle option on the i-pod but its not as good as shuffling up your own mix! Thus the beauty of a mixed tape. Its very cathartic and after stuffing up and getting frustrated at uni today it makes me feel alot better.


I especially like making the tapes for other people so that I can make them listen to "CHEESE" ( in other words good) music!

My favorite songs to put on Mixed tapes:
(I made a tape tonight and these were the first five and my favorite!)
1. Badly Drawn Boy - Once around the Block (Its so HAppy)
2. Ricky Gervais - Freelove Freeway ( The Office goodness)
3. Flaming Lips- Sponge Bob and Patrick confront the physic wall of energy ( I love the bubbles - so happy)
4.Split Enz -Message to my Girl (Neil Finn goodness)
5. Coldplay - In my Place ( my all time favorite song)

Did you know I can fix Clothes-lines?

Last Night I had a ton of fun!

It was awesome! I have been feeling a little lost recently and a night of drinking was what I needed! ( Always remember Alcohol solves all your problems: this is not true kids - DONT BELIEVE CHEESE'S LIES)

ANYWAY!
The night started at customs where Joconut, her new funky "Margo Tennebaum" haircut and I had some delicious Coronas (with lemons in the top). Then some more beer.

After a while we deceided to get some yum Cider and trek up to yet ANOTHER farewell : this time Cass was pissing off to New Zealand. ( It seems lots of people are going places...). Cass's farewell consisted of burning stuff in the backyard, and eating tofu skewers. I decieded to farewell Cass in the only way I know how : Create a musical of her life and try and fix her Clothes-line ( "You are the wind beneath Cass's wings..." was the closing tune)

After many unsuccessful attempts at trying to fix the broken Clothes-line we headed for 'The Grand'. It took me a long time to get to the grand because I had to stop at Jo's house so she could spray perfume on me so I didn't smell like the fire.
IT was here that Jo sprayed perfume in my eyes. Thats right, she tried to hug me and then sprayed perfume into MY EYES! They burnt...thanks JoCONUT...
Marty showed up and we finally made it to the grand.

AND guess what! IT was MRAH's 20th Birthday! I was planning on meeting them at the brewery but they ended up going to the grand anyway- so that was tops because I didn't need to leave the premises.
The Grand didn't seem the same because MITTENS wasn't there - Mittens is always at the Grand!

IT was lots of fun hanging out with the Mrah crew because they were as drunk as I was! Horraahh! I did make Hare give me piggy backs and hold my stuff while I ran around being silly. We ended up at the Northern and thats was actually pretty fun! The rest of the night is a bit blurry and I can't be bothered writing about it! What you need to know is that I had fun!

I think one of the highlight was talking to cuppits former band mate ( who tried to kick him out of their band) and telling him that Cuppit, Marty and I had formed aband and called ourselves "WAT"
But Still, it was too bad about the Clothes-line!

The Randomness of Wiggles

Today Kiggles (Kate-Wiggles) and I went shopping.

We talked alot and I have come to the realisation that: Kiggles is a master in the art of 'Random'. Often the same sentence would relate to five seperate topics - or situations. It was very funny and sometimes hard to keep up.

We also had fun driving around the uni - Kiggles likes to take the speed-humps nice and FAST.

All in all - Kiggles is TOPS! (and was standing behind me as I wrote this...)
Even though its raining today, I have had lots of fun!

Does anyone remember #3

William's wish welligtons!

I love gumboots... If only I had a magical pair!

Hasselhoff saves the day

The only man who can save people from the devastation of 'Hurrican Katrina'.
Hmm, This is in really bad taste... I am appalled that I laughed at it....

Piss off...

This is Mark and Mittens before they went on exchange to Japan.
I found this picture on Mike TV's blog.

They are wearing some lovely boxes with 'Australian' patches sown on to them, just so they wont forget where they are from. They also got other random presents from the kids which I hope they are enjoying.

We gave Mittens some forks!

So anyway this was a nice night and they were farewelled well! I think its a funny picture...
OH how I laugh....

The Almost-death of White Lightning

Today my Car, White lightning: The Luck dragon, was fixed!

Hoooorahhh for Manueal the mechanic! Can he fix it? YES HE CAN!
Poor old White Lightning had a cracked radiator, and apparently the brake pads were grinding BUT now she is fixed! AND Driving much better than before.

ORIGIN OF MY CARS NAME:
"White Lightning" - because shes one hell of a fast station wagon ( I think this is because I drive fairly slow...).Name c/o Patrick Allen.
"The Luck Dragon" - Named after the dragon in the Neverending Story ( because the car is white and long -just like the luck dragon). Name c/o Scott Barnes.

At the Beginning of the day I though my car was dead, how wrong I was!
So HORAAHH for Manueal! He is one hell of a mechanic!

Brain of Cheese

I do believe I have a brain made of CHEESE! And that it is slowly turning into a molten mess...

I've seemed to have lost all concept of time - Its Bizarre!
Tuesday now seems like the end of the week. Events that happened two days ago NOW seem like they occured months ago.

Losing your concept of time is not good when you are already forgetful. Which indeed I am...

It's getting worse because I'm sure that I have lost something BUT I don't know what it is. I'm sure I'll find it, eventually, when I work out what I've lost.
Till next time,
Cheese.

"I like grapes"

I love tuesday nights!
$5 movies are tops.
This week the kids and I went and saw 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'!
AND It was FANTABULOUS!

I enjoyed the Oompa - Loompa Dances - especially Augustus Gloop's Song and Dance number ( One day I hope to dance half as well as those little critters! "Augustus Gloop, Augustus Gloop, a great big greedy nincompoop...Augustus Gloop, so big and vile so greedy and so infantile")



I think however that the QUOTE of the movie goes to Willy Wonka with this Gem:

" Everything in this room is *eat*able. Even I'm *eat*able. But that is called cannibalism, my dear children, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies. "

I will leave you with the Willy Wonka Puppet Song which has been going through my head all day!

Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, the amazing chocolatier
Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, everybody give a cheer
He's modest, clever, and so smart, he barely can restrain it
With so much generosity, there is no way to contain it, to contain it, to contain.... to contain... to contain...

Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, he's the one that you're about to meet
Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, he's a genius who just can't be beat
The magician and the chocolate whiz
The best darn guy who ever lived
Willy Wonka, here he is!

Does anyone Remember...#2

Raggy Dolls?

This was also one of my favorite shows that I used to watch when I was a kid.

These were the Reject Dolls from the Factory - and they had to hide so they wouldn't be thrown out - Life as a Doll ain't so easy!

Mark always wins?

Today Mark and I played Scrabble.
Mark is known to STEAL pillows (there will be an explaination later), this is okay because:
Mark (apparently) always wins - BUT look at this compelling truth!

"Ferris Bueller -you're my hero!"

Classic Ferris Quotes
# 1
"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it."


#2
"A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in The Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After all, he was the walrus."


#3
" The question isn't "what are we going to do," the question is "what aren't we going to do?" "


#4
" I'm so dissappointed in Cameron"


#5
[Ferris has snuck aboard a parade float]
" It's one of my personal favorites and I'd like to dedicate it to a young man who doesn't think he's seen anything good today - Cameron Frye, this one's for you."

CHEESE VOTE

Hello,
Yes - I am putting pictures of myself on the web. This will be for a short time only as I dont know how to save to a disc for a stupid webpage assignment for uni.

ANYWHOO,
I will make a fun game of this: VOTING!
Yes! Just like Big Brother you can vote for which picture you want to stay! Just post me which kind of "Cheese" you want!

Is it....

Picture Number ONE:
CHEESE IN PINK!

Not often am I seen wearing pink. It used to be my favorite colour!

I am not actually holding my teddy bear it is my sisters - The famous "Mrs Ted". I grew up thinking that she was getting it on with "Little Ted" on play school!

Picture Number TWO:
CHEESE EATS MILO!

Here is the evidence that I LOVE MILO! I have actually tipped on the floor to eat it! I am a grot!

I like my MILO "homer simpson stubble".

Picture Number THREE:
CHEESE TRIES TO JUMP IN THE FOUNTAIN!

This was a very funny day in Sydney that I spent with my very good friend MRAH! I actually got pretty wet taking this photo because a jet spurted up and got me!

Awww, memories.
VOTE QUICK - who knows when the photos will be gone. (Probably Friday)

Does anyone remember...

....Sooty?

I loved this show!


He was so cheeky!
I named my cat after him!

The parting of ways

This post is mainly for my brother because I don't think anyone else will care. Growing up with my brother infected me with the Doctor Who Disease, for which I am very thankful. There is no escaping this disease - it will forever haunt me.

I felt VERY sad when DOCTOR WHO ended.

This was a very sad episode, I don't like re-generations. The 9th doctor, Christopher Eccleston was brilliant. I had my suspicions that the new Doctor Who would be crap. BUt it wasn't it was brilliant and even a bit scary.

I watched the last episode while babysitting and I feel I need to watch and chat about it with somebody. BUT WHERE IS MY BROTHER? He is fantastic for these kind of discussions. But no, he is not here and has gone home to sydney. ( Sigh**)

I wish there were more episodes with the 9th doctor... but alas there are no more and we must put up with the new 10th doctor, David Tenant.

(Sigh) Until next time,
Cheese.

Blogness!

It seems that a few people I know have blogs! AND by few I really mean four.

I don't know how to put up a links section yet so i will just link them here!

OKay, here we go... are you ready? I hope so!

HUZZAFISH
This is my favorite! Its my Sister's blog. It is fantastic! She is fasinated with the ocean and Op-shops. She has been known to change her outfit 10 times in one day just so she could get the full advantage of her house dresses! She also told me that my family found me in the sewer when Mum dropped her wedding ring down the toilet.

DUCKY TONG'S THE IN CROWD
This is Martin. I have previewed his crazy ramblings on this blog before... if you liked them, then visit the site. If you dont - its more of the same. Martin has four modes of living: Arty and Reclusive; Angry and Pretentious; Happy and drunken; AND staring. It takes a while to get used to Marty and when he's not being annoying he is fantastic! He also likes to be mean to my Lemon Chicken. People do not have faces like lemon chicken...

SASSY BOY
Sassy boy is newcastle's premier Rock Star or will be when the band starts up. Sassy boy is one of the famous ( and vital) members of the 23 Crew. Sassy boy loves a good Neighbours episode and I have heard him say that QUOTE "Paul Robinson is HOT". Sassy boy named my car "the luck dragon" and looks like Brett Whiteley.

Finally,

There Once was a blog called M.F
This blog is now KAR-PUT de

HOwever,
There is a New Blog:
Mark's Adventures in Japan.
I know Mark OR Lincoln (" MY NAME IS LINCOLN") . He is a terrible boy. Complaining and being Cranky is his game - if it was a competition he would certainly win. Lincoln likes to cook curry that looks like spew and his aim in life is to beat me everytime we play monopoly.
HE even named his blog after winning :Mark Always Wins - please! But perhaps worst of all he is in love with Delta Goodrem... ( But who can really blame him...She was on Neighbours!).

Til next time.
Cheese.

The Bedroon Philosopher

Hello again!

The Bedroom philosopher is the Self proclaimed ‘prince of folk,’aka Justin Heazlewood.
He is very funny! BUT has crazy eyes!

I am a bit excited because I found out that he is going to be playing at the ZINE fair at TINA : This is Not Art festival 29th September -3rd October! CHECK out the link for TINA!


I will leave you with some of the wise words of the bedroom philosopher from the song "I'm so postmodern":

I’m so postmodern that I just don’t talk anymore,
I wear different coloured t-shirts according to my mood.

I’m so postmodern that all my clothes are made out of sleeping bags,
I don’t need pockets, I’m a pocket myself.

I’m so postmodern I go to parties I’m not invited to
and locate the vegemite and write my name on everyone.

I’m so postmodern that I write reviews for funerals,
and heckle at weddings from inside a suitcase.

I’m so postmodern that I breakdance in waiting rooms,
play Yahtzee in nightclubs, at three in the afternoon.

I’m so postmodern I only go on dates that last thirteen minutes,
via walky talky, while hiding under the bed.

I’m so postmodern I invite strangers to my house,
and put on a slide show of other people’s nans.

I’m so postmodern I went home and typed up everything you said,
and printed it out in wingdings, and gave it back to you.

I’m so postmodern I request Hey Mona on karaoke,
then sing my life story to the tune of My Sharona.

I’m so postmodern that I dress up as Santa,
in the middle of August, and haunt golf courses.

I’m so postmodern that I cut off all my hair,
and knitted it into a beanie, and threw it off a bridge.

I’m so postmodern that I stole everyone’s mail,
and cut them up into a ransom note and hid it in a thermos.

I’m so postmodern I take my lego to the supermarket
and build my own shopping trolley, and only buy one nut.

I’m so postmodern I bought a round the world plane ticket,
and stuffed my clothes with eggplant and pretended it was me.

I’m so postmodern that I iron all my lettuce leaves,
put my shirts in the crisper - they’re real crisp.

I’m so postmodern I recite Shakespeare at KFC drive thru’s,
through a megaphone, in sign language.

I’m so postmodern I go to the gym after hours,
push up against the door, then cry myself to sleep.

I’m so postmodern I wrote a trilogy of novels
from the perspective of a possum that Jesus patted once.

I’m so postmodern that I marry all my friends,
soak myself in metho, and tell them that they’ve changed.

I’m so postmodern I think I might be a god in my undies rolling in sugar, in the carpark of a rodeo.

( MY PERSONAL FAVORITE:)
I’m so postmodern I write four thousand-word essays
on the cultural significance of party pies.

Marty's words of wisdom

These are the random ramblings of one Martin Tong:
They are confusing indeed.

"Pull the baracades. The rats never have been able to stomach cream cheese. Due to the incestual nature of shoes my pudding went cold. Happy Birthday"

"Give me an inch and I'll take you without a paddle or a saddle"

"14 cows. A jesus fish keeps me awake with its cycle of librarians. Libra is my favorite colour. I am wheatgrass without my pillow but easily fooled"

I think Mr. Tong spends all his time coming up with these catch phrases so hopefully one day someone will Quote him.
His day has come.

Never bored with Nanna....

I hate being bored.

Someone told me when I was young - it was probably my sister - that "only boring people get bored".
That is borange!

Thats right borange.

It means rubbish. It was a word created by Ross Noble and Terri Pisakis in the summer on Triple J earlier this year. It was created because no word rhymes with Orange....

I see you trying to rhyme it but its not working is it?? huh? huh? There is only borange.

Ross and Terri were hilarious! I would stay at home over the summer holidays between 10am-2pm to listen to them. They were random and silly - the best kind of humour.

Anyway, Ross and Terri were great for boredom. They created the Nanna phenomenon. This is where you print of a life-size picture of the Nanna and take random photos of her with you doing crazy things.

There was Nanna drinking tea, Nanna driving a tractor , Nanna in bed canoodling...
There is never a boring moment with Nanna. The situations that Nanna can get herself into
are endless.

Plus Nanna will always have a smile on her face.

I printed off a Nanna, she is hanging up in my sisters hallway. She likes to scare visitors by smiling sweetly.
You can print of a Nanna too. Just go to : www.rossandterri.com

Remember: Nanna loves you.

Geezz, I hate advice.

Those who know me, know I like to talk alot. I dont enjoy silences - it feels awkward and weird. I get to the point where I will repeat myself and tell the same stories over and over and over again. I hate feeling awkward - its uncomfortable.

I dont mind giving my opinion on matters but I hate giving advice.

I really hate giving advice. Because I give really crap advice and I would hate to recieve my advice.

This doesnt mean that I don't like listening to peoples problems - I do, I like finding out just how crazy people are. Its just that I never know what to say - and usually what I do say ends up being a Cliche. Sounding really fake. Or really bad advice.

I was in a situation the other night where I was suppose to give advice, or comment on the situation and all I could think of is "It'll get better". Thats terrible it wasn't even advice but merely shallow reassurance.

I personally hate the advice:" It'll get better" OR " shit happens"

What if the situation gets worse? It probably won't but what if? huh? eh?

If someone said that to me I would be cranky. There is my rant for today.

Don't tease me about my hobbies I dont tease you about being an asshole.

I am nuts about Harry Potter.
No matter what people try to tell you it is cool to like Harry Potter.

I can remeber where I was each and every time I finished one of the books. This i think is one of Harry Potter's strongest points: they have such strong endings they make memorable occasions. Often the middle of the book seem to drag along becoming hum-drum ( just like life) then BANG something exciting will jump out at you and as you look up from the page in amazment you'll think:

WHOA! I didnt see that coming.

I had to blog this, because nobody listens and they often ignore the conversation when I talk about Potter.

I have just finshed The Half Blood Prince. I am, like many other potter nuts, waiting on the final installment which will hopefully resolve itself in a satisfying ending. I am angry about the events of the book. I was hoodwinked Dammit!

My only hope is that the next Harry potter is realeased soon before I grow up and feel too "old" for the wonderful, whimsical world of Potter.

Cheese, Why Cheese?

Cheese is very tasty, hmm.

It tastes good on crackers, Saos, english muffins and Vegemite.

But thats not why I am called Cheese!

It is my middle name. Yes, you read it correctly. Cheese is my middle name - or it would be if i bothered to change it by de-pol.

You see I was born with no middle name. Harsh. I know I feel it everytime I look at my birth certificate.
