Orange is my new favourite colour
The flowers I got the other day have opened up nicely. I changed the water and trimmed the stems yesterday, so hopefully they’ll last a little while longer. They seem to go quite well with the poppy on my page. They’re not poppies, are they? Probably not, the petals don’t look the same.
I got the windows on my car tinted the other day - they look really good. I’m tempted to make faces at people I pull up next to at night to see whether they can see me through the glass, but of course I’m way more mature than that. Heh heh.
A friend from tafe and I have a new regular spot for coffee after class. We used to go to a cafe around the corner, but the guy there is a jerk and I don’t know exactly what time they close, but they’re always packing up chairs and cleaning off tables to give us the hint to leave. It makes me really edgy - my friend doesn’t care and just sits back in her chair, determined all the more to stay longer, but I just get really uncomfortable. Our new place, however, is open 24 hours, so there are no worries with being kicked out. Aaaand a hot chocolate is only $2 - bargain! That’s an 80 cent discount over the other place, people! So see ya stupid coffee shop guy, we’re going elsewhere now!
I’m not doing the Relay for Life any more - the people organising the team I was in couldn’t do it after all, so it looks like I’ll have to find something else to do that weekend. It’s a bummer, because I was looking forward to it, but I’m too lazy to get a team together myself!

You can definately tell that I didn’t focus my studies in botany. Those are definately tiger lillies. If it is any consolation prize, I do know my species of tulips, as they are my favourite flower.
And BTW, I would be making faces, no question about it.

What’s up, tiger lily? Too bad about your event–what a bummer. Oh well, maybe next time…

The flowers are so beautiful!
Glad you found a new place to meet up with your friend! Atleast now the people are nicer and its cheaper.

For sure Missfee… so many naughty options
Yeah, I’m a bit disappointed about it Steph. Of course I could get off my bum and organise a team myself, but I don’t think I know enough people who’d be interested.
Cool Jessica, I look forward to seeing your photos!
Thanks, c’lam! I haven’t changed the water for a couple of days so hopefully they’re still ok :/
Nice work, Dawn! I know nothing about flowers, so I rely on the knowledgeable types to tell me what they are.
Yeah, Miss Qt, sucked in grumpy coffee guy! Heh. And we can get burgers and stuff at the new place - mmm burgers and stuff.
Thanks, yaya, I love them - I’m going through an orange phase at the moment, as you might be able to tell from my blog colour scheme

I love lillies. They are so pretty. Nice color too!

Those are sooooo pretty! And you are very right about Orange. It’s been the color of this season for me. You just don’t know how many orange sweaters I have - in all different shades … sad, very sad
LOL
But according to NY fashion week, bold colors (hot pink & orange) are the summer/spring colors. I LOVE IT!!

Nice flowery things. Orange is the colour I am thinking of using on my imminent redesign! (Hope I spelt that right, can’t be arsed to check heh!)

I like the colour too, Saphiryn - I’m really into bright colours at the moment.
I should get some more colour in my wardrobe, Groove - most of my stuff is either black, or some dark colour
Good choice, Rich! And yes, you’re right
