Butterflies and Chucks

I woke up at 3 this morning to watch the inauguration of Barack Obama live. Even though I'm not an American, I dunno.. it was still so exciting. Watching Barack give a speech is awesome.. and I loved Aretha's hat, lol. Her voice, not so much. She must've had a cold.

In other news, I'm going to be a godmother! To my little cousin Isabella. I suspect my uncle and aunt were running out of possible godparents, since they've already baptised two daughters :P But whatever- they've still chosen me over someone else, so it's great. Now... what to wear to the christening? Hooray, a valid reason to shop!

I recently bought a Casio Baby-G because lately I've been quite sick of having to whip out my phone or ask other people for the time. I'm pretty sure the last time I wore a Baby-G was in sixth grade, about ten years ago. (!!!) I remember that watch. I loved it. My parents bought it for me one night when we were browsing the shops around Sydney Harbour. It was light blue, with a cloth wriststrap and it was from the 'Witchy' collection. It was the maddest watch ever. It had a daily horoscope function to tell you what kind of day you'd have, and the result would be a picture of an animal. A turtle would be a slow day. A crab would indicate a very good day. Another mode would have you ask a question, and it would answer either yes or no. Kind of like a magic 8 ball. It would be fun to own that watch again, but I'm turning 21 this year and it calls for a more mature timepiece. So I chose one from the Sweet Poison collection. I chose this one, the one with the white face. I think it's gorgeous. The smooth white resin wristband makes it stylish, but it's digital so it still has a slight casual feel. The 200M water resistant claim is quite impressive, too.

I saw Slumdog Millionaire and it was amazing. This film deserves every single award and nomination it gets. I really want to see Role Models. I watched Zack and Miri (I refuse to call it by its full title) and that was pretty funny and better than I expected. Bolt was also surprisingly good.

BRB, gonna watch the latest episodes of How I Met Your Mother and Gossip Girl :D
