Well it has now been enar on 5 months since my gorgeous little baby was born :). I still remember it as if it were yesterday, the feleing of joy and excitement, being scared and worried for steph and the feleing i got when lily opened her eyes and looked at me, it is as if everything in the world aligned and for that brief period looking into these eyes which were open for the first time nothing could have gone wrong...nothing. I still feel that way today when she smiles and giggles and yells coz she cant talk yet. And it is amazing to see the progress, from when she was a mini little blob to now being able to wriggle around and move herself, grab things, put everything she can get her hand son into her mouth...shes is just the epitome of life being great :) House is still standing which is nice, mortgage sucks, i paid over 3k already but with interest i have only actually paid off about 1200 bucks :( only 309,000 to go!!! Work beggun to get a bit tedious with way too much to do but after today I am mellow and calm anot not alot will bother me now. |

Well it has been a while... First off, the best news, scary as it may seem Jarryd is going to be a dad :) Steph is about 11 weeks pregnant and if all goes according to plan I will have a son/daughter on the 20th of January. :D It is amazing, it wasnt planned or anything, so yer a new life is on the way, extremely scared but also very excited, and this has kicked me in the ass to get back to the homebuyers people about the hoose. So far its looking like we will be living in the new development on the cnr of Pinjar Rd and wanneroo Rd in a lovely little cottage block type dealio...3 x 2, 2 car garage fantastic :D My family have gone ballistic with buying things, which in a way is great but also its a bit CALM THE FUCK DOWN PEOPLE we dont even know if its a girl or a boy yet!! wait for a couple of months then buy us stuff! I have my eye on an awesome cot/changing table set oooooh its great :D:D hahah My car is currently off the road being rebuilt due to things being bent and a little tired so thats off the road and has so far received new set of tyres, brake rotor and pads, rear trailing arms both upper and lower, new panhards. All thats left is the new set of drop radius arms and some body work ( cutting guards!) and it is back on the road, only thing now is i need to find me a 'family' car...so a nice generic commonwhore or something will do the trick. Well thats about it for now! Enterprise out. Jarryd |

Car is going in to be lifted in a fortnight which is sexylicious... 4wding this saturday night...yay for nightruns in mundaring in the wet... long weekend coming up will be great...spend it fishing...camping...and 4wding...im really beginning to think that i want to go live in the country...where nobody can bother me and i have lots of room to play in...which is what i really want! Work is uber busy atm..which is why i obviously have itme ot be doing this :P But busy s good because busy means money and money means bonus for Jarryd :) which makes me even mor smileylicious...

Well i hope everybody enjoyed their nw years eve celebrations! I spent mine walking the streets of Northbridge Working..which in theory was going to be a sweet dealio...but when it turned out i had about a 15km radius to cover constantly...not fun...probably ended up walking clse to 40 odd km over the space of 13 hours...and in that time..my hatret for our indiginous bretherem grew to insermountable levels...god how i wanna get holocaust on them...fuckin families sitting in the treet chroming...others in alleyways just getting drunk and throwing bottles at people an abusing them...a young girl came up to me with her friend and explained how she had been sexually assaulted by a group of them...then you call the police over the radio..the cunts take half an hour to get there coz they were too busy moving a family of niggers away from a stage area...in the mean time this girl has given it legs away...i hope she is ok. Im still picking glass out of my shin and shoulder after having bottles hurled at me... My new years resolution of quitting smoking is coming along nicely..havent had one since midnight new years...and yes while i feel like im going to snap something in half im blaming it on other reasons apart from not smoking :D So in all the 1400 bucks i earnt NYE means nothing to me and I will not be doing it again. Fuck you northbridge. Fuck you NYE and fuck you aboriginals...i hope that you all wipe yourselfs out with narcotics and such..it would do everyone such a big favour. |

Well it was now..9 days ago but my sisters wedding was excellent :). There was the generic pissing around beforehand at my brother in laws parents house but then we all got ready and i had issues with this stpid fucking flower thing i had to wear...stupid fuck but thats besides the point...as the groom and his side of the bridal party were on the way to the church, yer his car broke down on the freeway...so over we pulled and i managed to fix the problem which was only caused by michael and my cheap ass, corner cutting ways to begin with! We managed to get to the church about 15 minutes b4 the ceremony started which was good...some crazy old organ player guy was yelling at us for taking photos...fucking moron...youd think someone who has played the organ for 40+ years would not fuck it up..but he did..how do you fuck up the wedding march??? Clown. But anyway the ceremony took only about 45 mins and ym sister looked gorgeous :D And i think the worst part of the day was 2 and a half hours worth of photos! But they all look fan-fucking-tastic which rawks... Then as receptions go..dirnks were consumed..food was wasted and jarryd passed out in his nice 5th floor apartment :D All round a great day... Now ive helped them move into their nice new house..and speaking of nice new houses..i went and spoke to the first homebuyers centre on saturday... which is great because i have another meeting with them in a month to discuss loan apps and finance for a nice shiney new house for Jarryd...:D:D which is great because due to my wage, i can borrow upto like 450k...which gets me a nice house in a nice area...but im only living in it for a year or os then selling it for more money...but yes am rather very excited about the prospects of my own house...only problem is...how to furnish it! ohwell questions to be answered another time i suppose! Anyway thats all from me. Goodbye. |

Well its been 7 weeks apparently since i last posted, i thought perhaps it was time for an update. Currently I am tiring of my job, I have a couple of job interviews coming up at a couple of local councils in their Engineering Depts which, if i get the jobs would be freaking sweet...perks here i come! Apart from that I am trying to save every penny I have as I am planning a trip at the end of the year, the destination? Well I havent established that yet but I am sure I will be able to find somewhere to go! I was toying with the idea of driving the Simpson Desert in my 4wd, which would be an awesome. I just recived an email from main roads...god I hate them so so so so so so so much garrr..yer good idea lets put a bunch of foreigners in charge of our road systems! GOOD CALL DIMWIT! On another note, I am gracing the chair of the tattoo studio on the 20th of September...ahh gonna be the best 500 bucks im gonna spend, well until the next one :D. Today I spent 2 hours in the fucking rain due to some moron driving his car off the road...god some people are incompetant! BUt avass, everything is going well, My big sister gets married in 2 weeks on saturday, barg so excited for her and the bucks night is this saturday which is gonna rock my casbah. ANyway should get back to work so..out. Jarryd |

And can you tell me doctor why i still cant sleep at night? I feel as if 'its' back again...i dont even know specifically what it is. Im back to feeling lost, dishevelled and just...lifeless. Nothing appeals to me, Im constantly tired, then theres the fact that I just cant sleep, there is always something nagging me in the back of my mind, i cant explain it, there are so many things i want to achieve but i feel so helpless to reach these targets, I always had a strong mental picture of where i would be when i was 19, but i am nowhere near it. I wish I knew why, I wish i could be 15 again with not a worry in the world, without a thought towards what the future will bring, I just want to go back to hanging out with my mates and all of us fucking around and being able to get away with it. I cant be myself around people anymore, im paranoid, unsure and untrusting about everything. I wish it could have turned out differently...i really do. "And can you tell me doctor why i still cant close my eyes, without thinking the worst, why i still cant look anybody in the eyes, and when will this pain go away?" |

Everything is a bluuuuuuuur....i cant concentrate..constant headaches..barg i think its due to the new, stronger medication im on...fucking hell tho..barg humbug...got my tattoo touched up the other week...looks proper again...not all crappy like last time due to my neglect of it..well not neglect but i didnt put stuff on it when i should of but u get that i spose... on the work from i got a pay rise :) which is awesome...its only an extra 5000 a year but hey better than nothing at all :). In November this year I am planning a trip to Singapore/England/Dubai...i cant wait..and ive worked out i dont need to save THAT much per week..its only like 350 a week which isnt even half of my pay! which is great and mama and papa said they would donate 1000 bucks which is even better...im excited even tho its like half a year away still! But ill finally realise an ambition to travel some of the world and see new things...the only reason im going in November is because thats when i will have accrued my annual leave back..so paid holiday haha..which is grand. Cleaned my car on the long weekend..i always feel satisfied when i do because the leather is all shiny and clean looking and so is the carpets and everything argh its great...and i finally got my new stereo in it..took my ages but i guess thats what happens to a luxury 4wd with electronics EVERYWHERE but thats life. Well hafta leave now..going home..early day :) Peace. |
