Bi-annual journal entry...

Tue Jul 7, 2009, 2:30 AM
  • Mood: Lazy
  • Listening to: Incubus - Monuments and Melodies
  • Reading: Turn Coat - Jim Butcher

  • Eating: Coles chocolate (it is WIN)

Fiji feels like a lifetime ago. Here's what's going on with me at the moment:
- University. This is my LAST SEMESTER. This is terrifying. I got through last semester with a credit, a distinction and a high distinction (screenwriting, prac V music and photography respectively) and since this is my last one, I hope to go out with a bang. Maybe even an HD for prac if I can swing it!
- Work. I've become a deli-chick. This is very strange, being someone who does not enjoy cleaning and would not eat if it weren't, you know, necessary to survival. But, having been there now for about 5 months, I've gotten really good at estimating shaved ham weights and I can remember most of the important PLUs. Go me.
- Music. I've put a new track up for your listening pleasure (hopefully) on MySpace, called "Like It Hot". My MySpace is a bit weird at the moment, I applied a new theme but I'm not sure I like it so bear with me... but listen to the song! [link] . Doing a unit on internet music marketing and another on audio engineering this semester (I love 3rd year and its electives!) so hopefully I'll be all equipped and able when I get my degree.
- Life. Still with my gorgeous Christobiscuit, coming up on 3 years and 4 months. Not really enjoying this him-in-Brisbane-me-on-Tweed-Coast thing but the plan is, once uni finishes I pack up shop and ship out to Brisbane to join him. With a bit of luck. Looking forward to that phase of my life - building a life for myself has been really exciting so far and I don't know where I'll end up, but I can't wait to see what job I land, what my place looks like, and how I fare.
- Other stuff. Got a little Twilight obsessed for a bit there. I think I've recovered. Actually, wait. I made an Alice Cullen replica necklace tonight for a party I'm going to as a vampire on Saturday. Probably not so recovered. But everyone's gotta have some romance! Also, new Dresden Files is MADNESS. Can't get enough of Jim Butcher. Or Joss Whedon - Dollhouse is fantastic. Castle is also with the greatness (Go Fillion!). Incubus' Monuments and Melodies has me fangirling all over again - those guys CAN'T write a bad song. Another current addiction is lingerie. I know, wtf? But I can't go past a Bras N Things without going in. Upside of this is a slowly developing collection of pretty knickers. Downside is the steady depletion of the bank account.
And that about brings you up to speed! How are you lot? Seriously, let me know.

Hello! This will be really random, but I'm curious. Does "Maika" mean anything? LOL It's my real first name and I never knew what it actually means. I saw your comment at [link] and immediately saw your username.

Where'd you get your username from if I may ask? I hardly ever see "Maika" spelled my way. It's usually Micah or Mika.

I have never stopped, however, appreciating the people and the little things that make life beautiful.

Hi Maika! Wow, that's a pretty crazy coincidence. You have an awesome name, by the way.
I stumbled across my username on a Lord of the Rings fansite, they had an elvish name generator and one of the options it gave me for my name (which is Erin) was Maikaduriel. I liked it so I used it, and then shortened it to Maika and here we are :)
I don't know what it means either but I think it's a beautiful name, and I love the way you spell it! It looks gorgeous written down.
Sorry I couldn't be more help on the meaning, Maika.

Death no longer terrifies man, the smell of blood is as common as the smell of white plums, so he creates slavery and savagery, which surpass the horror of dying, these can only be fought with more blood shed and the cycle never ends
We move over soon :D
