i adore this band.
they make some amazing music.

but the video that caught my attention when i found it and caused me to listen to their music was this one..



enjoy


p.s. there's also a making of somewhere on the net
p.p.s. at one point they also did the video live, but i can't find it anymore. but how is it possible?

we moved?!?

it's a website called emails from crazy people
and has the most random, funniest, most annoying emails ever.

i'm gonna post the original email that started my obsession with this website.

but until then - here's a sample.
this caught my eye because of the title - and the fact that the person then goes onto explaining it, because it's actually possible right?

Shocking: New Zealand and Australia are out of their place on the map

Hi all,

this subject got started originally in the thread “Something has changed timeline” when I sent post about my own experiences related to possible timeline changes. I thought that I’m alone with this subject but after mentioning about it in the thread the interest aroused and other people started to say the same thing in shock. It was suggested that this subject needs its own thread and here I’m writing to you.

One of the shockiest timeline changes I have noticed is the changed location of New Zealand and Australia on the map. They have dramatically changed their places and we are now talking about paranormal/supernatural events as it looks like those land masses have almost “jumped” to other location.

There are people like me that have always remembered and still think vividly that NZ is located on the left side/to the northwest of Australia. Then there is Australia, which should be in the middle of nowhere, just a lot of blue water all around it and far away from other land masses (except for NZ on its left side).

But if you go and check the current location of NZ and Australia with your Google Earth you may start to see something really weird. NZ seems to be jumped on the other side, to the south-east of Australia. On the other hand, Australia seems to be shifted a lot to the north, very close to Papua New Guinea so it almost touches it. Where is the Australia which was far away from other land masses? Something seems to be also wrong with the form of Australia. When did the Australia get that spike that is pointing to the Papua New Guinea.

In this thread we could gather all your memories of NZ and Australia, especially if you have memories of NZ located to the NW of Australia. If there are New Zealanders on ATS it would be very interesting to hear their take on this subject. Then we could think about when was the last time you remember seeing Australia in the middle of blue or NZ to the NW of Australia on the map. Mine was 2005 when I was exploring the map of NZ with Google Earth and I think the change must been happend somewhere between 2005-2009.

i am not young
enough to know
everything

i miss fridays

last year, we began a new routine.

every friday at midday, we'd grab a guitar, sit on an empty hillside and play and sing every song we could think of.

i would sing as loudly and as badly as i could, but it was so fun!

and now i miss those days.
and i don't even have any photos to share how awesome our little spot was!

luxury garden shed

cladding made of western red cedar shingles.
i love the overall look. its like an alien pod just landed in the garden. but its a stylish alien pod.
i think my favourite part would be opening the top-hinged door and walking into my very own alien spaceship every morning.

just look at the inside! it's so spacious compared to what it looks like from the outside!
i read that it's because of it's 'unique shape and generous natural light from the roof dome' (here)



and good for the environment (which eva always loves) because of the giant skylight that floods the sphere with light. and there's also nautical-esque portholes on the sides :)

train

ah i have much loved memories of this band - mainly because i adore the song drops of jupiter.
i have no idea when it was released and up until about 2 weeks ago, i thought they were just another 90s band with a one hit wonder.

but then i heard this and i was quite surprised to learn that hey soul sister is in fact by the same band - train.

i use youtube to get my music fix when i can't figure out a song or something, or when i want to listen to one i don't have so i went trolling on the net to find this song. and i found this video.




and now i have a burning desire to start glueing maps and photos and magazine cut outs to my wall.

which i know i'd regret the next morning, but come on, how fun does it look?

if it weren't for electricity, we'd all be
watching television by candlelight.

the fact that they went to the effort to do this beautiful display put a smile on my face :)

i'm in love

so, anyone who knows me knows that i have a thing for packaging design.

like, interestingly designed water bottles.
my mother dreads taking me to the supermarket because we always walk out with far too many bottled waters than we will ever need, but i just need them for my collection, no matter how gruesome the contents are..

i guess this love stems from the admiration of packaging design which is why i was so excited when i found this website
like pee-your-pants-awesome, it is.

it is called Packaging of the World and i am in love.



my favourite has got to be this brac fini sapuni soap box. i just love the simplicity yet the effect!



enjoy browsing!

p.s. i got onto this because i'm researching packaging for my jewellery - markets starting soon i hope!

break

sorry about not posting.
for the past couple of days.

and the next couple - i've got a few uni assignments plus i'm trying to really crank out the clay stuff because i'm trying to sell it at some markets soon! eek

on the bright side of things, i just found out how long my winter holidays are..

7 weeks!


totally makes up for all the assessments i continuously have.
i may or may not be having a cupcake baking frenzy during those seven weeks of freedom. of the clay persuasion of course.



and because every post is nicer with a picture *cough* slash shameless self-advertising *cough*, here is another bit of eva-made clay...

orange and poppyseed. yum yum

i'm trying more, as we say, gourmet cupcakes with fancier flavours than just pink or purple :)
i haven't taken any photos of the others yet but i made passionfruit choc cupcakes with delicious looking icing. or the orange creme choc cupcakes. i always end up making chocolate ones. for what reason je ne sais pas.
