Get a little bit of bourbon in ya, get a little bit suburban and go crazy.

I haven't blogged properly in the longest time and you guys deserve better.

Of course, not much, and yet too much to talk about, has happened- so you guys probably aren't going to get "better" from me.

• I went mandarin picking and it felt so nice to be out in the open. The kik felt like a second family and we all had fun taking pictures with racist trees and batting mandarins out of the farm. 
• Then there was the day we went to a lookout. The views along the way to the lookout were orgasmic. The sun was slowly setting and the sound-of-music-like hills were alive and shining. 
• The lookout itself was stunning. We stood over the vastest valley and I'm not quite sure how to describe the feeling. But I'll try. We were four people made so little by such an enormous and beautiful landscape and yet we stood above it all. And that in itself felt amazing, because we were conquering the landscape and it stretched infinitely both to our left and right. Imagine the feeling that comes with that. That's what I felt. It was great. 
• And then on the drive back, we blasted music and sang old hits from the naughties. And at one point we stopped and popped our heads out the window, leaning back and staring deep into space. It was gorgeous. 

I'm heading off for Byron Bay at 5am and it's almost four. I haven't packed so I guess I should end this post soon. I'm so excited because I'm going to Splendour in the Grass!!! I can't wait to sing along to Childish Gambino and dance to Peking Duk. And then there's Outkast!!!! I'm sorry, Miss Jackson, ooh! It's gonna be mad fun.

O.M.G. Fashion crisis!!!! (...) So my group decided that we'd all go in gumboots, right? And I had these big white industrial rubber boots but they didn't go with my outfit because my outfit was darker colours. So I went out to go buy a white jacket or jumper so I could even out the white, tie it around my waist. Well, I did, and I tried on the whole outfit and it looks weird! Like the black and white + the navy with floral???? I put a white snapback on top and it was just awful. Then I took the white jumper (that I had just bought) off and the outfit looked fine. The white gumboots didn't ruin the rest of the outfit at all. But I already bought the forty dollar jumper :(((( So I've decided to just go with it. I'm wearing it all hahaha I'll post pics later.

I think I know why I'm worrying about my appearance so much. Basically, I was hanging with Jess' friends a long while ago and they are HIP. They're cool people who like cool things and go to cool places in their cool clothes. And they saw this girl with beetlejuice tights (black and white vertical stripes) and the hip girl was like ew, gross. And they made fun of her fashion choices. I don't want to give the impression that these people were mean people or that the beetlejuice pants weren't terrible (because they are nice people and those pants were not the best) but the whole notion intimidates me. And splendour is gonna have so many hip people in hip attire and if I dare at all with my own fashion choices, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at. And the worst part is, I won't ever know because these people don't laugh in your face. And suddenly you think everybody is, when maybe they're not. It's ridiculous of me but truly hip people intimidate me. They really do. How pathetic.

Anyways, I should start packing, I'm getting picked up in a little over an hour!
