Luck
Things like this don't happen to me, I am one of those people that good things hardly ever happen to, Life has has been kinda hard lately, Then something amazing happens. I entered a competition on-line for a brand of Lolita clothing (Body Line), the prize was a trip to Japan, all expenses paid to model for there brand, 200+ girls entered 3 where chosen. I was one of them.... OMGoodness... The trip was amazing, I went mad shopping, and I had heaps of crazy photos taken, here is a link to some of my pictures http://s100.photobucket.com/albums/m22/ladyJenita/Bodyline%20modeling%202009/. Still can not beleive I was chose, I would not consider my self model material, I think I am quite ordinary. But I'm not complying, Cant turn down a free trip :D

Ok, so, I haven't really updated the website for a while
There are reasons for this of course, personal happenings etc... Instead of harping on about all these excuses explanations for delays I thought I would bore you with my to-do list, Yes its that time of my life, where I have been pick up by my ankles, shaken and dropped, then left to pick up my own pieces, and with this delightful change, inevitably comes the newly found notion to rearrange life/goals/wants. So not in any particular order of events I am going to list them for you. Yes! I am aware that If you all are aware of my goals, you will kick by but if I don't achieve them, however I am confident.
Make more Blogs.
Write more!
Paint more!
Get a pet
Learn the Art that is gourmet food.
Make more of an effort to keep in touch, (sorry all, I have not been very social, lately).
Circumstances permitting move to Japan (But don't worry is only for a year maybe two).
Eat smarter, work on my fitness and flexibility (like all girls I to want to be able to do the splits).
Get to know my family better.
Travel more!
So there you have it, the list.. Sorry!for wasting a minuet of your life, until next time....
A Dream Come True
For all who know me well you will know I have a list of things I would do before I die. One of the things on my list is to live in Japan, as you know in 2008 I went to Japan for the first time. I got to Harajuku, Shinjuku. Shibuya, Ginza, Akhibara, Kyoto, Himiji. I even got to go Anime Convention, studio ghibli. Also by chance I fulfilled another dream of mine I got on Japanese TV (TBS), After getting a taste Japan, I am now wanting to live there even more. You can see pictures of my expaditions here: http://s100.photobucket.com/albums/m22/ladyJenita/Japan%202008/

Holidays
Holidays sweet holidays, for all who know me you would know that I haven't had a Holiday for the last two years, so on the 15th of December I flew to Melbourne and stayed till the 2nd of January, It was a wonderful holiday. I spent lots of time relaxing, shopping, I even spen new-year there and watched the fireworks, but what I enjoyed most of all was visiting the Melbourne art gallery. While I was there I got the opportunity to see the the work of Tezuka, entitled The Marvel of Manga. For all who don't know who Tezuka is, her is a bit of info:
Tezuka Osamu is an icon of the Japanese manga movement, acknowledged in Japan as an artistic master, and revered as the figurehead of the manga and anime industries. Creating over 700 manga titles during his lifetime, he is best known in the West for his cartoons of Astro Boy and Kimba the White Lion.
Yes you herd it right people, the creator of Astro Boy. So as a lover of Manga, you can say this was a grate moment in life for me, I even brought some books on his works, and a novelty keyring with the main caricatures of Astro Boy, as a memento.

For the last 3 years I have been studying at Belly Dance Academy of Nayima Hassan. How ever this year, the annual Harem party held at the school took place. This year being the best yet there was free Turkish food and Champagne. the teachers put on a show for all there students and they even had Henna painting.. Below are some pictures of me at the party in my snazzy outfit with my hands decorated in the beautiful henna... my out fit was hand made by me with a little help from my Mum, the material I used was originally a table cloth.. and my Shoes, the love of my life where purchased from Ebay....
I also have recently taken up a Brazilian dance called Capoeira. Capoeira is a Dance that blends elements of dance, music, rituals, acrobatics, and fighting. Pictures and more info coming soon....
