My Favourite Poem at the moment

Silent friend of many distances, feel how your breath enlarges all of space. Let your presence ring out like a bell into the night. What feeds upon your face grows mighty from the nourishment thus offered. Move through transformation, out and in. What is the deepest loss that you have suffered? If drinking is bitter, change yourself to wine. In this immeasurable darkness, be the power that rounds your senses in their magic ring, the sense of their mysterious encounter. And if the earthly no longer knows your name, whisper to the silent earth: I'm flowing. To the flashing water say: I am.

Weddings!!!

My Dad and Nicky's wedding was absolutely beautiful. [Kaitlyn: Hehe and so were we.]

Kaitlyn and I cannot really be bothered explaining the entire day with words because it would just take far too long and it would not even come close to conveying the pure exquisiteness of every single little thing, so here are some photos instead.


Wednesday the 24th ofJanuary

Beautiful Sunrise at 6.30am




Indie and Imogen (Nicky's nieces) getting ready in the morning








Walking along the beach





My Dad reading a poem about love





"With this ring I thee read"






My Dad being his usual oh so funny self.... Kaitlyn was not amused...





Cooling off



Walking back as it started to rain


Pretty Flowers on the cake








The End



Ciao


Love Alex

Pressure!

kelda is sitting next to me with her "marking schedule".... Apparently i have 0, oh wait now 3, points, because of the bad grammer and no CAPITAL letter [Edit Kelda: Note the use of the Asian Singular].

Alex: Apparently I've been spending too much time with Eric.... Moving on... Yeah well that's only because I only missed ONE capital letter, at the beginning of your name..... And I usually write my blogs in Word so i don't have to do the whole CAPITAL letter thing myself....

[Edit Kelda: Something random:]

Alex: O my God we look soooo bored.... By the way we're the Spice Girls: I'm Baby Spice, Char is Ginger Spice and Ju is Scary Spice.... We actually all look really slutty. Yes Kelda... Full Stop.... Ha and CAPITAL LETTERS.....

Hugs.... Apparently Kalda (yes she actually wants me to leave the typo in) loves me cos she makes me laugh.

This is going to a long post.


Have you been drinking? Asks Kelda

Haha! Laughs Alex

No seriously...? Exclaims Kelda

No reply

Laughter


This is Eric.

Hello Eric!!

He is wearing a bottle of stuff [Edit Kelda: Canterbury Cream] on his head and a halo that Kelda gave him for his birthday.

This is a contradiction.

Alcohol + Eric = Not angelic as one might think initially.


We have just decided that Laurence is cute [Edit Kelda: this is news to me...] Yeah whatever KALDA we all know you think he is..... And Laurence is just telling me he'll read it when he gets home so Kelda we have to make this extra special... And according to my phone I'm being 'inbred".... I swear I have no idea what it's talking about....

Anywho I'll wrap it up

"Sinners are much more fun"

So all you goody-to/two/too-shoes, be bad....

Love ya

A Time of Change

I’m so sorry Kelda. I was going to update but then I couldn’t be bothered. But I was feeling sooo guilty I went and ate some chocolate… Anyway I have been thinking and thinking since New Year’s Day about what my New Year’s Resolution is going to be and after much deliberation, I have finally found what I need to change about myself.


I am going to be nicer and be a better friend.


2006 was an interesting year full of ups and downs. I’m just hoping that this year will be better. It’s as simple as that.


Anywho I’m off to my mum’s with no computer so the next time I’ll update will be in February. By that stage I’ll be a step daughter. Wahoo. Finally everything is falling into place.


Ciao
