over my head

Listening to The Fray, Robbie Williams, and Paris (!) transports me back to Perth, when I'd just watch the day pass in the cozy living room in Ambrose, or snuggle under the covers of what was my bed for six glorious weeks. Reading Trisha's posts about her own adventures in Aussie make me miss the place so much more. Two years or so to go.

I've been swamped with work lately, learning the ropes and beating deadlines all at the same time. The people are great, crazy, young, happy. Working in eTel is so much of a learning experience. :)

Saw The Devil Wears Prada earlier this week with Ara and Yda, and the clothes were just fabulous. We all wanted to shop after watching the movie! The clothes Anne Hathaway wore weren't the outrageous kinds but the wearable classy stuff, and I loved them all. Wish I could go to work clad in those pieces. Damn I need to shop!

Missing home as usual, and this time I don't get my regular sembreaks anymore. I even have to cross my fingers for Christmas. Grrreeat.

And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry
And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love
That have to say goodbye..."
