Chapter 8 - Fallen For You

John: This was taken yesterday cuz we were quite bored, and it was too hot to be doing anything else. So we decided to take some pictures with some scrap materials I had left over from doing my final assessment.


Grace: Ugh. Last day of holidays today. Lovely. Well, enough about school. It's already taking up most of our lives, we don't need to think about it when we actually have a life - not about school. So here is a new post for you guys. Finally. Hahas sorry for the delay ! D: But we hope you like it, and we'll keep posting whenever we can. Or whenever we aren't lazy, hahas :)

Chapter 7 - I Don't Know

John: We spent my day off yesterday at the city, and what beautiful weather we had. We actually left quite earlier than usual, cuz usually we plan to wake up bright and early to leave early, but it doesnt work out that way, we sleep in and wake up all annoyed for wasting time on sleeping AGAIN!!! HAHAH!

Well any way we bought a few things and the Fringe Bar had a little vintage shop opened within it. It was vair cool and vair vair crowded! and it was our first time inside there! Which was quite exciting, cuz we always wanted to go in there, one day, cuz it looks and feels like those bars you see in the movies and tv shows, you know how a bar "suppose" to look like, well its like that! It is acutally bigger than I thought, cuz there was this other little room I never knew they had which is pretty cool. Anyway there were many cool things like the jewelry and dresses and shirts and jackets and we got this black bag that was in the corner of the place. The shop asisstant was telling us the history of it, how it was from the 1970s I think? and that it was owned by a man, and it was most probably used for uni or school or something along those lines. It was pretty cool hearing that this bag had some story behind it!

Grace: I only have one word to describe this day. Pain. Pain. & .. MORE PAIN ! But oh so heavenly .. Because I got to shop. Why must shoes be designed for your feet, but seems as though your shoes have some sort of prejudice against your feet ? Its like a monster that swollows your feet up and then just voms it out. BUT its a monster that we seem to be addicted to and love. Well anyway by the end of the day my feet ended up lookng like, I dont know.. like feet that were covered in blisters. It hurt every step I took. And today I found dry blood on them. Lovely. Hahas, well these were shots we took randomly and I grew an obsession with this bag that we spotted in a bar that was selling clothing and accessories. It was desgined for males apparently .. but who cares. I fancy some guy clothes and accessories, and this way John can wear it aswell. :)

The bar was well presented, and had really nice jewellery. I tried on this really nice vintage looking jacket with floral prints on it. The place didnt really have a mirror, but one of the workers were really nice and held a mirror for me. But we didn't end up getting it.

P.S never again will I wear boots without socks. Perhaps it was my fault this time and not the shoes. Well, actually I blame the time. Time seems to like going against us, and loves to escape. It's so much easier blaming something else. :)

Chapter 6 - Hello Pretty Looking Thing

John: Happy new years everyone! I hope you had spent your new years eve having loads of fun! We spent it at our friends house watching tv shows, eating and taking photos till 6am! WOO~ The time just went by and I was dead tired. We all woke up offically around 2 or 3pm? Then we just went to go watch a movie which was suppose to be The Princess And The Frog but the last session wasn't good time for us so we watched The Lovely Bones. It was really good! And I even dreamt about it! I cant really remember my dream but I know that there was some person like stalking me or something.... hahah

This picture is of this bag we saw in Grazia sometime early last year in the top ten items section. You know in the begining? Well any way we rang up the number to find out where they stock this bag and they said it was sold out every where! T^T We were vair vair disappointed. But they said they will be sending more to some of the stores that stocked them, but it was places we never heard of. So anyway one day I was at market city with my friend and we went into one of the stores in there and I saw a brown version of it and got excited but it wasnt the black one. But then one of the stop assistants pointed to the black which was on a top shelf and I was vair vair happy! We were at dinner for christmas and I brought my camera along, amongst taking photos of friends, I took a photo of Grace's bag just for fun, and it turned out to looking goooood~ So here I am posting up this picture of this bag that we thought we wont be able to get but in the end WE DID!

Chapter 5 - Relaxing Time At Bondi Beach

John: Here are some pictures we took of ourselves while we were just relaxing on the beach, with the beautiful sun after our hard days work ahhhh~ ( it was just after we took the photos hehehe) and while we were eating some prawn chips these seaguls started to come to us! They were so close to us as you can see in the last picture (hello Mr. Seagul). We haven't been to the beach for soooo long! Ever since Janurary for our friend's birthday. So it was vair vair good to go to the beach once again, and before the new year too~

I still cant believe its only in a few days, new year I mean. So much has happened in this year, I had done 2 different courses in tafe accounting which I realised I should just do what I really want to do and passionate about which lead me to do applied fashion design and technology, which I loooove doing vair vair much :D. Also I got a job at one of my favourite stores that Grace and I went to like atleast every saturday hahaha. I still cant believe I work there... (smiling from ear to ear). And I have gone alot better with talking to people which I am vair vair VAIR happy about cuz I really struggle with talking to people, and its all thanks to my work! And the funny thing is, is that, that was one of my new years revolutions for '09 so there you go, who says new resolutions cant be kept! Ohhh AND I made great new friends~ WOOOO~ XD And finally I wouldn't of been blessed with all these without GOD so thank you VAIR VAIR VAIR much GOD you're TOPS! XD

Chapter 4.5 - School Formal

John: These are a few pictures we quickly took before we headed out to Grace's year 10 formal. We had the whole day to get ready but we still left the house late so we were unable to spend ALOT more time taking pictures like we were planning to, but we did get some nice ones. AND luckily our friends Sarah offered to take Grace to her formal cuz the only option we had was for her to take the bus HAHAH~

We were looking for the PERFECT dress, a dress that just takes your breath away as soon as you see it and especially when you have it on! So when we saw this Kirrily Johnston dress we just died and came back alive to purchase the dress and so Grace can wear this dress to the formal! When we went to paddington to see if they had the dress in her size, they didn't have it in her size so that just ruined OUR PLAN. So on another trip down to paddington we were just looking in the stores and went into the Kirrily Johnston store just to look and see and to maybe try on some stuff there, and while grace was trying on some stuff the shop assistant saw me looking at that kirrily dress that we wanted and told us that they do have her size. So we were screaming on the insides but our smiles said it all! She tried on the dress and it look amah-zing~ even with her hair all tattered from the rain ( for some reason, its always bad weather when we go?) so that ended our quest to find the PERFECT dress!


Grace: I hope you all had a great Christmas, I know I did :D Well anyway, these snap shots were taken quickly before I arrived to the reservation at Paradiso (I think that's how you spell it.)
I remember the panic I felt while the adrenaline was pulsing and trippling my heartbeat when I looked at the time and realised I was 30 minutes late ! But it was okay, because even though I was half an hour late, people were still arriving so phew.
That night was a night to remember because everyone was constantly dancing it was so much fun :D And not only that, they played 'Down' like three times ! Everyone was dancing until they had cramps in their legs - like literally. I was a trooper and stayed in my heels all night, I felt proud hahahas everyone took their's off but I didn't want to part with my heels in case someone might take my precious shoes ! D: or while dancing people with shoes on will trample all over my feet, I mean after all my feet were pretty much demented by the end of the night from my heels, I don't need it to be anymore retarded.
I can't wait till my year 12 Formal because there's another excuse to dress up ! :D

Chapter 4 - Loving My Kirrily

John: YAI-YER! School hoildays started for Grace last week so on the saturday we went to Bondi Beach to FINALLY do this shoot that we have been wanting to do for awhile! Ever since we bought the dress for her formal. Its such a beautiful dress, I just lurrrrrve it! It was the first time we did a shoot out of our area so it was quite exciting hehehe~ Also the first time in front of people. Not just a few people but HUNDREDS! But they were mainly facing the ocean so that was alright. The scenery and the direct sunlight made the photos look heaps good so hopefully we do more shoots in nice places with very good lighting.


Grace: Well as we promised, here we present to you one of the photoshoots we had planned. This was the dress I fell head over heels in love with beside Jacob Black, Edward Cullen and Luke Worrall.
So I hope you love my dress as much as I adore and treasure it. We still have more shoots planned ahead for you guys. We actually did this shoot a while ago but lagged to post it because we've either been to busy or too lazy hahas, so enjoy until the next shoot ! :D
By the way we wish you the best for Christmas ! Better have been behaving good or you'll end up with coal in your stocking ! Christmas for me and John will be excellent, having it spent with some of our closest friends. I cannot wait for tomorrow and the day after ! :D
For christmas spirit sake I'll end this post with "Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas everyone !" :)

Chapter 3 - I Love It When The Camera Man Screams My Name

John: It's been the holidays for me since last friday, and I had a day off today from work so I spent the day lazying about, msging friends, Facebook and Twittering, and reading the last Confessions of Georgia Nicolson book 'Are These My Basoomas I See Before Me'. I looooooove~ these books they are sooo vair vair funny and unique. It is written like a diary entry, and the slang used in these books are soo clever! I use them myself cuz they're DOUBLE COOL WITH KNOBS ON! I suggest you to read them all. So since I wasnt really doing anything today I felt like doing a shoot today. I had in mind just a simple, black and white profile shots of Grace, but we ended up doing little bit more than profile shots hahha. It will be holidays for Grace soon aswell so we should have more time to do more photoshoots, and we do have a few in mind. Hope your all well chum and chumettes.

Grace: Okay so this photoshoot was yet another last minute proposal. We can't help but always be last minute, its just in our nature to be. If not for me and my brother to be .. than that would be like going against nature.

It felt to me as though we haven't blogged in a while, so you could imagine the moment when the 'camera man' (John) called my name and said "lets do a shoot !" I was excited. Like our old puppy Leo, who'd pee everywhere because he was so excited. (Minus the peeing) but you get the gist of my excitement. We have a few photoshoots planned out for you guys to enjoy, so keep an eye out for them. Until then, we hope you enjoy the spontaneous snap shots ! Hope to talk to y'all soon ! :)

With lots of love.

xoxo. Excited Puppy. :)
