Concerns

I have concerns for myself and the lack of sleep that I have been getting, thanks to a little show called WEEDS!!!! Oh god, I think it is safe to say I am ADDICTED!!!!!!!

Not even joking, Im losing sleep just because I want to know who is selling what, sleeping with who and cute little son!!

Ok I must not be the only one.... Ok maybe I am, but just thought I'd share this part of my life with you hahahaha!! So I go through these phases where I become addicted with something - like there was a phase, well lets call it an extended phase that is now my life - that I'm addicted to Zappo's - Strawberry ones to be exact! I share them, get other people addicted, and so the circle of life continues!!! They are heaps cheap - like $1.99 from Woolworths and you get 5 lots in one pack, and in the 5 lots are like 7 little Zappo's - ahh Im getting all excited even talking/typing/thinking about it!!! ehhehehehe!!!

Ok thats all for now - byyeee!!

And the winner of Masterchef Australia is..... JULIE GOODWIN!!!

The above words (some of, if not exactly) will be sprawed across newspaper headings tomorrow morning.

This evening finale compromised of the two finalists Poh and Julie fighting for the title of 'Masterchef', through a three round competition that saw them try to obtain points out of a possible 100, the one with the most points won.

It was the end of the second round and Julie was winning by two points, whilst watching with my family, we were unsure if Julie had what it took to bet Poh in cooking Matt Moran's signature dish - Chocolate Tart with chocolate half-pipe with macaroons accompanied by a chocolate sorbet. It came down to the judges scoring Julie 82/100 and Poh 75/100. Thus leaving Julie the winner of 'Masterchef Australia', $100,000 and a publishing deal for her own cookbook.

From watching Julie from the start, she has come along way since the beginning of the show, and during tonight's finale, it truely showed how much she had grown throughout the competition - surpassing any 'meltdowns'. Julie also managed to get the Judges crying, everyone in the room with her, and my family as well. Not only did Julie grow into an amazing Masterchef tonight, she also brought the end of the drought in Australia, many admiting having tears in their eyes after she had become victorious. We have grown to love her, and personally I have grown to love the way she looks at cooking and her wonderful sense of humour. Yay for Julie, and I cannot wait til your cookbook comes out! I do believe that I'm all Masterchef-ed out! and with my holiday finishing in a week, it will allow me to focus carefully on my studies rather than imitating the contestants on 'Masterchef'!

Question

Who Will Win Masterchef Australia???

Tonight is the Finale of Masterchef Australia, and it has come down to the last 2 contestants - Poh and Julie. Thus, making the first winner of Masterchef Australia, a woman! Reading Sarah Wilson's column this morning, also made me realise that not only will the winner be a woman, but they will also be over 30! Reading further, it was great to hear the Host of the show opinions and how this victory for either Poh or Julie will be a great stance for women in such a male dominated profession, and for women in TV.

Aside from the above points, it will also be very interesting who will win, as both contestants bring very different styles of cooking to the table. On one hand we have Poh - who cooks by example of her family and heritage, and on the other we have Julie, who cooks tradtional hearty family meals from the heart.

The prizes that the first Masterchef of Australia will win is phenomenal - including a book deal, where they will be able to create their own cookbook. As I'm sure, many millions of Australian's are about to tune in to Masterchef, the anticipating the climax before the winner is annouced tonight. It will be a whirl-win, (excuse the pun) for either woman.

Personally, I hope it is Julie, she has brought much joy and love to the competition, and has made me laugh many times through her best efforts to serve up the best dish. Poh has a great suppost base behind her, and I must admit I have too enjoyed her time in the competition, as the judges favour her efforts and most of all, Matt Preston numerous puns, that he has delivered through-out Australia's Masterchef experience. Let the cooking begin, as the winner of Masterchef Australia is announced tonight!

The Entertainment World - MOURNING!

Today I woke to the news that TWO of the greatest entertainers had passed away within hours of each other.

Farrah Fawcett, who passed away from cancer today, was one of the original Charlie's Angel and many women either copied or were envious of her 'flicks'.

Her partner Ryan O'Neal realased this statement today:

"She's gone. She now belongs to the ages. She's now with he mother and sister and her God. I loved her with all my heart. I will miss her so very, very much. She was in and out of consciousness. I talked to her all through the night. I told her how very much I loved her. She's in a better place now. She was with her team when she passed … Her eyes were open, but she didn't say anything. But you could see in her eyes that she recognized us."

To make today even sader: the news that the King of Pop Michael Jackson has also too passed on. It has been reported that he suffered a cardiac arrest and was rush to the emergency room on UCLA Hospital. Paramedic's arrived at his home but he had no pulse, furthermore, once as hospital the staff tried to resuscitate Jackson, but his pulse was never regained.

Madonna has gone on to say: "I can't stop crying over the sad news. I have always admired Michael Jackson. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless."

Today has possibly one of the, if not the saddess day for the Entertainment World. My thoughts and prayers go out to both the Fawcett/O'Neal and Jackson Families. They will be sadly missed! R.I.P

Question

Is the world truely against me in buying tickets to Pink's Funhouse Tour???

HHHMMMMM?????

Well I think it is. Tried to buy pre-sale tickets for my mum, nan, best friend and myself, to see Pink preform at Acer Arena in Sydney for her 2nd lot of concerts.

My mum loves Pink and her music, and I really wanted to take her, as she is soo deserving.

Mum has been the biggest supporter of anything my brothers & I have wanted to do (past, present & future), she has sacrificed so much (eg putting her 3 children through Private schools) and all I wanted to do was take her to see her favourite muscial preformer.

When the tickets go on sale for the General Public next week, it will be impossible to grab 4 tickets, least of all, the website crashing. I mean, I will try, but I will need a bloodly miracle in securing those tickets, and making my mum's day.

I hae blogged this under Question, but in creating this blog, I should of created a sub-catagory of FRUSTRATION!!

GRRR!! Well that's me for the night, trying to positive around my mum, as she is soo deflated in not getting those tickets, and our hopes of getting them next week are getting weaker and weaker by the minute.

PS. I must also say, that my mum and I have been fans of Pink's even before her "So Hot Right Now" stage that everyone thesedays seem to be so caught up in. Back when her hair was actually PINK!! Blerg!

PSS. If anyone has 2-4 tickets to sell for her August 28th & 29th concerts, please contact me --> I WILL BUY THEM!!!

I would just like to express my thoughts on how much I LOVE Gossip Girl!!! Thats all, just wanted to tell you all that I love it!! Xoxo (you know you love me, Gossip Girl)

Question

Who is the 21st Century's version of Grace Kelly??? Why cant society be more like her??

Does someone actually exist with the style and elegance that one can respect and admire, like they did when Grace Kelly was alive.

I have very few people [in my mind] that could measure up to the MGM great. People like Cate Blanchett, Rachel Weisz, Kate Winslett, Meryl Streep and Juliette Binoche.

It is so hard for young girls to find a role model that signifies self-respect and inner beauty, beyond the trashy stars that exist in today's society.

Trashy stars like - Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Jordan, Denise Richards, Lauren Conrad, Heidi Montag [actually anyone off The Hills], Kate Moss, Tara Reid, Misha Barton, Vanessa Hudgens and the girls of the Playboy Mansion. Seriously these bimbo-airhead-barbies have unrealistic body ideals and no wonder so many young girls are altering their images - just coz they think they ll fit in better, whilst trying to look like these morons. No wonder so many young girls end up having and eating disorder, let alone teenage girls paying them out at school even more. It sucks, and I didnt have to go to an all girls school to notice this, its in the media, its everywhere!

Girls saying 'Paris is my hero!' - and in my opinion, its a whole lot of crap!

If only there was a proper modern day Grace Kelly that young girls can look up to, rather than thinking its cool to have trashbags as heros.

In the words of Mika "I want to be like Grace Kelly....mmmbaa" - he knows it all!!!

Concerns

So now Spiedi (aka Spencer Pratt & Heidi Montag)are Z-listers, theyre still pimping themselves anywhere and everywhere.

Signing up for 'Im a Celebrity Get me Out of Here' - the irritating duo have now quit the show twice, after going back after each time.

The thing that I am mostly concern about, is the phrase that Spencer described Heidi and himself as -->"Super-celebrities don't belong in the jungle. They belong in Hollywood with the paparazzi."

I am totally concern for them as fellow human beginings.. theyre actually believing that theyre massive stars and that people actually care - I think not!!

Anyway there is enough time wasted on these two, yet along me going on further about it.

I hope they are kicked off, and see what other means they can pimp themselves out in the future... possible breakup/divorce??? Gahh. Im concern and irritated!

Just purchased the new touch screen Nokia 5800 aka Music Express. I absolutly love it and would reccomend it to anyone!

I got the phone at no extra cost on the Optus $49 Cap/month. It has WLAN aka WiFi so I can still use my twitter and facebook with my usual wireless internet connection =)

Most of all: its easy to use!!!

And as I hae become a twitter-holic, I can easily access it through dabr uk via my phone. Its my first touch screen, but once you get the hang of it, its amazing.

Just thought I'd give this amazing phone a plug, and share my comments of its wonders.
