If I could meet a spaghetti in a dream, this would be it:

Spaghetti“Arrabbiata” Crab, Tomato, Chilli
Baked in a Paper Bag


Found only at Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons,
Southbank.


It would be the Yummiest Dream in the World!

Blueberry pancakes at Cafe Sweethearts
You pour on the maple syrup
And I recite in my head

'Sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
Your first sweet kiss thrilled me so
Sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go'.

Your weekend ritual - wander into South Melb market
for freshly shucked oysters
ONE DOLLAR A POP!
with lemon and Tabasco sauce.
I'm hesitant to kiss you now
You swallowed those poor oysters live!

You buy me fresh wild flowers
I buy Kazuo Ishiguro's Nocturnes...
It is about 'the struggle to keep alive
a sense of life's Romance'
Wow, I have not heard the word 'Romance' in ages
The word feels so old and nostalgic and lovely...

We go to NGV for Dali's Liquid Desires
My favourite is his Galatea of the Spheres...



Here he has broken up his wife and muse Gala
into little atom bits
It is spiritual and mystical
but also scientific at the same time.
It is but ofcourse, Surreal.

The biggest treat was watching
Disney and Dali's animated collaboration - Destino
Walt Disney described it as
“a simple love story, where boy meets girl."
I turn to look at you in the dark of the little cinema
I break you down into your tiny little atom bits
and love each one of them.

I like to be Wowed.
I like to have a Song pop out of nowhere
that grabs at me
makes me stop doing whatever I'm doing
makes me hold my breath
keeps me spellbound
so that there is nothing in the Universe
but that Song and I


Empire of the Sun - We Are The People

We can remember swimming in December,
Heading for the city lights, in 1975
We share in each other
Nearer than father
The scent of a lemon, drips from your eyes

We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now
We can try

We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer
Followed the sun till night
Reminiscing other times of life
For each every other
The feeling was stronger
The shock hit eleven
Got lost in your eyes

I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me, but I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now
Can’t you be believing now

Can you remember and humanize,
It was still where we’d energized,
Lie in the sand and visualize like its 75 again

We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now
We can try

I know everything about you
You know everything about me
Know everything about us

I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me, but I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now
Can’t you be believing now

it's their conceptually brilliant music videos too!

Back to work...
Back to preparing for clinical exams...

The Written Exam was nothing in comparison to this
The Clinicals are all about performing in front of a harsh audience
I hate putting on a performance
As far as performers go, I'd make a great clown.

So yesterday's Mock Exams were a disaster
Humiliated, defeated
I decided to drown my sorrows in Crown.

We love Nobu for drowning in sorrow
Its dark walls, dusky lighting and warm sake
makes for good comforting
We drowned in lychee liquer, asahi
and sashimi after sashimi.

We wandered through the casino afterwards
Lots and Lots of Starry Eyed people
Building dreams with poker chips
admist Crazy blinking epilepsy-causing lights

Then we caught Wolverine at the cinemas
It served as a great distraction
All that claw and fang business is quite a turn on
(I am still in a vampire-love daze)
And when we emerged at midnight
dizzy from all the testosterone charged action,
the Mock Exams felt like a faraway Bad Dream.
