less poignant blog

please see below blog. But also... thought i should mention my minor disaster of the minute:

yesterday I was making a model for school (very busily doing this at the moment) and by accident I spilt molten wax down the sink and blocked it. Stayed up till 2am pouring boiling water down drain to try to unblock to no avail. Left very appologetic note to flatmate swearing I will pay for plumber etc. Today I have spent another 3 or so hours pouring water down and it seems to be better. also cleaned entire kitchen very thoroughly and bought flowers. Should my flatmates still have the shits with me? I have been getting some dirty looks and not sure if I deserve it, maybe I do?

What about me-eee!!!!

I have realised my blog is going to have to become a bit more risqe (dont know how to spell, pronounced risk-ay) if anyone is going to comment on it. You may not all realise the joy when one gets comments on their blog. Emily's blog is going off today re: lesbos shorty action so I reckon I need to get you all voicing your opinions on MY blog, me me me me me!

My platform today is : Chappelles Nightmare

Don't know if you Kiwi's know but australia is going mad for chappelle corby, a beautician from queensland who had a pillow sized bag on marajuana in her boogie board bag when she arrived for her holiday in Bali. Chappelle has been sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. Aussies are goin BONKERS! Now don't get me wrong, I think chappelle probably didn't do it and I feel sorry for her, it is tragic (nb new spelling) BUT aussies are using the drama as a way of venting anti indonesian anti muslim anti anythingthatsnotaustralian attitude and saying things like we should boycott indonesia etc.

Now, did these aussies care when david hicks was imprisioned without trial? or mumdo habib?(they care now he's back, they're keeping an eye on him, if he so much as buys halal food he'll be sent straigt to jail)

Do these aussies care about the thousand of men woman and children who get locked up for life on arrival in australia for doing nothing! let alone without trial! And they didn't come here on holiday.

What about the starving children in africa? And whales? People in australia can get mighty worked up about a cause with a pretty aussie chick on the cover by can't get off the domino's bbq sauce filled arseholes to give a shit about anything else. Some people are even asking for money donated to indonesia for the tsunami tragedy to be refunded to oz, sickening!

So if they doesn't get you commenting on my blog I give up! Even if you can just correct my spelling mistakes that would be good, it's very embararseing speling rong on owne blogg.

ta ta

hmmmmmmm......

just had a thought..... is "poignant pointy" the worst blog name in the history of blog names of all time?
I came up with it in a rush, I don't think my blog is particularly poignant, I'm being sar-car-stic. Ems should understand pointy part (anointy-nointy)

Tim cutting loose, footloose.

Me and Sarah (current housemate, centre) and english Sarah who's going back next week. (nb heart brooch Ned)

Anna and Carrie (my soon to be housemates)

An English Birthday: Curry and the Pub.

Last night was my friend Tim's Birthday and we went out for curry dinner then down the pub for some drinks. Tim and his girlfriend Sarah have been staying in oz for a few months as the last installment of their OE so was a very english affair. Tim went to school with my flatmate Vim, they are all from Swindon, yes thats right like from the office, where the "swindon branch" have to merge with Slow (spelling?) har har.

Pub was good fun we went to "the retreat" which is in brunswick near where I will be living soon in new house with Anna and Carrie. Cheesy Dj played lots of good oldies including footloose (which we all got a bit over excited about) and tim is pictured here "goin men'al" to "get back" by the beatles.

Lots of fun, now time for school work, only 9 days till holidays woooohoooooooooooo!

ta ta for now, hooroo.

This photo is a bit crappy but as someone was about to denounce our friendship I thought I better post it up. This is me and my dear friend Julee in Sydney before I moved to melbourne. i miss her wah!

Pheuew!

To my dismay thisafternoon I went to update my blog and it had disappeared! I was very distressed, surely my new found blog joy was not to be over this soon? Alas I had a nap and when I woke up it was back,yay, naps fix everything. I should find out if I have the got the lease on this amazing house tomorrow, it's a mansion with a giant garden, not sure if we'll get it though there were a lot of yuppies at the inspection.

Thankyou for comments Martha and Jessie, so exciting to have this global blogger community, sorry jessie I didn't know who you were but i think maybe you are Audreys sister? Did I know you in wellingon? It possible that we knew each other but not the connection. Do you two have blogs? I would love to visit.

The response to my design work has been overwhelmng (har, do I sound like morning tv host) so I'm going to put up some retrospective work from earlier in the year, I only have 2 weeks to go of this term then holidays, yay!

Found out form kerry (see bottom photo) when she is coming to stay with me in melbourne, i'm so excited, yay, i have so many things to say yay about in this blog. I think beloved Jen will be coming down from canberra so yay for that.

Toodle- oo

Thsi may be too small for you to see but it is the poster of an animation I did about projection. (animation using powerpoint not rea l animation) it is about cell growth over time and the shift of perception....

Schoolastic update

I figure I can justify spending time on my blog if i put my school work on it to keep the fandamily up to date on the crazy things i'm doing and where their hand earned money is going. So my major project for the semester is part of a design competition is Turkey, the brief for the competition is very open basically the design should be "extreme" and thats it. So our teachers made us all write our own proposition of what we are going to do and gave us the site of the Bolte Bridge in melbourne (see previous post of 3d model) here is my weirdo proposition:

Proposition (reviewed)

Bolte Bridge

Rosie Scott



The Bolte Bridge is situated amid a turbulence of mostly invisible systems relating to the weather, light, traffic, the Yarra River and the city. The atmosphere breathes and resonates yet the bridge itself remains stoic, it is unsympathetic to its environment.

This project seeks to reconceptualise the bridge as a living organism. The information from the surrounding environment is used as a growth force to define a fictitious yet engaging cellular structure that makes up the Bolte Bridge.
This process transforms the bridge into a dense network of millions of cellular components. Thus, the investigation defines these environments and allows us to experience their interiority.

The design will allow people experiencing the bridge at a macro scale (from the city or driving over the bridge) to visually get a sense of the “body” of the bridge and to experience its corporeal presence. It will also invite people to investigate the bridge at a “cellular” level, experiencing these cells spatially and absorbing information about the organism that is the Bolte Bridge.

So anyway that should inform you of the wanky talk that I participate in everyday

thanks for the mention of your blog ems, good to know we have a happy bloggin community
