Guitars anyone?

Hi minions! Sorry for not blogging the last few days I have been In Hobart doing some shopping. Well, not really I am saving my money for Soundwave next year but I brought a few little things. Like this Blunt mag with Joel (<3) on the cover. I hadn’t brought a magazine for ages but how could I not get it! I went to Myer to the Dangerfield section. Was really sad I couldn’t spend more money there were so many things I loved. I did end up with a plain black beanie and a pair of new sunnies but that is it. I was looking for a new guitar. I play so much yet I haven’t touched an acoustic guitar in over a year. I think it is time to get one. Any musos want to help me with a good type. I like the smaller body guitars so you can get to the higher frets I don’t want to spend too much money so a second hand one would be great. Any suggestions comment or e-mail me ali.headlam@hotmail.com.

Have a nice Sunday minions!

Made some money

Hi there Minions! So yesterday morning was really busy I went to the market with a stall at 6 am. We sold all sorts of clothing and shoes. All really cheap and I made a huge amount of money (well a huge amount for someone without a job). I sold some of my Converse collection that I was getting a bit sick of, some of my vintage clothes and shoes and just old clothes that I no longer needed. I seem to have collected some treasures of my own I got a baby yellow skirt and some doc’s! The doc’s a pretty worn but what they hey? I can do them up with paint or something. If you have any suggestions please let me know! I also picked up some old tapes not that I have a tape player or anything I just thought they were awesome. There are two Def Leppard ones and a U2 one. They are pretty old like from the 70’s and I have these albums on cd anyways but I think I might start a heavy metal/rock tape collection just for fun. Right now I’m listening to an Underoath album it is really good has some nice guitar and the singer/screamer is amazing! I can recommend Underoath to anyone into catchy metal.

See you later Minions.

some things to do when you are bored...

Hi minions. All is pretty boring today in my world. I went garage saleing this morning and found nothing to my disappointment. I have been packing up all my old clothes ready for the market tomorrow keen as to make some cash. I have to buy the Daria series because it has gone on sale for $30 so I think I will invest in that. I am also try to save up for an acoustic guitar as much as I love by electric babies there are so many times I wish I could just whip out an acoustic and play some clean calm chords. I have been madly listening to The Amity Affliction’s album and remembering when I saw them here and how amazing they were live. I was also in the second row that’s also a bonus! That is one thing that never fails to entertain me… listening to music and just chilling with some snacks. There is so much music out there not one person could listen to it all in a life time. So go down to your cheapest record store and buy some new tunes next time you are bored or raid your parent’s record collection you never know what you might find in there. Anyway Minions I leave you today with a picture of me in my new Nirvana jumper that I got from Cotton On for $5.

Amity Affliction's New Album

Hi minions! I’m so happy today I woke up in the best mood ever. No particular reason just in a great mood. It might have something to do with the new album I brought yesterday. It was the Amity Afflictions new record “Chasing Ghosts”. It’s pretty safe today they haven’t failed any fans with this record. In fact it is amazing it has really catchy chorus’ and some great guitar riffs. I’m sorry but I have to do this…I LOVE THE AMITY AFLICTIOIN THEY ARE AMAZING. I LOVE JOEL AND AHRENS’ VOICES THEY ARE SO PERFECT WORDS CAN NOT DSCRIBE HOW AMAZING THIS RECORD IS…Ok I’m done. Yeah so I can definitely say that I would recommend this record to anyone in to catchy metal. But I’m warning you don’t illegally download it because I will hunt you down and go crazy you because that is really bad they are an amazing band they deserve every cent of this record. My favorite song at the moment on the record is “Open Letter” it is really catchy and I can’t stop singing it.

See you later Minions

The Beginning

Ok so today I am going all out of my comfort zone and telling about where I have been the last few months. Ok so this nightmare started last December six day before Christmas. I wanted to lose some more weight after losing about 12 kilos. I still wasn’t happy with myself. So we went to the doctor and asked for some advice. I had no idea that that day would change my life for a very long time. I got up early to go to the hospital to see my doctor. He did some tests and after a long conversation with lots of questions I ended up staying there for four weeks. Yes, that meant Christmas day too. I don’t remember it word for word what he said exactly but it went something like this…Alice you are very sick your heart is beating less than half the amount of beats that it should be and there are a lot of other things wrong as well. You have a disease called Anorexia. One day I would like you to be able to leave this hospital but for today and a few more you will be staying here… My heart really did stop at that moment. I didn’t know what to do I was full of so many emotions mostly disbelief. I felt so disappointed. I had worked so hard to lose weight and all I had been doing was ruining my body. So this is where the road began I’m still walking slowly and sometimes I go backwards but that’s ok I will get better one day. It’s a battle but I will win.

Why the change of heart?

Hi Minions! So sorry for not blogging the last few months’ school was getting the better of me and I was getting behind in my work. So what have I been doing? That’s a good question. I have been doing homework, hanging out with my sister, getting suspended from school…, umm, yeah, playing guitar, writing some songs and doing some covers, dying my hair, walking, running, smiling, crying and everything in between. Yeah so my life has been pretty good apart from still having to go to the hospital. Alas, the time is soon to where I won’t have to go there anymore.  I thought I’d take this opportunity to make a fresh start to my blog to take a new look on life and get ready to take on the world. So why the change of heart? I wanted to blog about more things other than fashion and music. So I thought I’d start with a random blog title, new font and new background to begin the start of a new exciting free time in my life. I will put up the next few posts about what has been happening in my life in the last year and then it’s all fresh start from there.

So minions live your lives and be happy here’s to a new blog!
