WantLoveLike: Jan 2012

Kia Ora! So this is a new little feature I want to add to my blog for 2012. Basically what the title says. I will try and do it every month, if I am on a roll every week. ♥ 

WANT: I love this Michael Korrs watch. All about the chunky goldness, this is such a statement accessory. 

LOVE: Aura by Swarovski, really want this as my wedding scent. Its beautiful.

 

LIKE: Pretty much another LOVE but I am in love with ItsJudyTime from Youtube. She is a beauty guru and  does regular beauty tutorials, which are not 20 minutes long. I am now obsessed with her daily Vlogs that she does with her husband. Check her out! She is just gorgeous!

Wedding + New Year 2012

I am getting married this year! So major saving is taking place this year, which is about major discipline. Having no bills this year is a major relief! Really no excuse to not save. 


Which leads to my oh so cliché New Years Resolution check list! 

• Wedding Savings
• Restricted License...yes, I'm feeling the judgement vibes. 
• Car! doesn't have to be a  Ford Explorer but its time to own a new set of legal wheels, vital for a marriage I think too. 
• Some how with all this saving and expectations I'm setting for myself I am going to continue to eat healthy with weight watchers help AND exercise a minimum of 3 times a week. Major advantage to having 6 weeks holiday is there is no excuse to not work out 5 times a week. Feel sorry for my sister when she walks into the lounge to find a heavily breathing kick boxing Amy glaring at her. Would scare anyone in my opinion. Close to 10kgs down, but aloooong way to go! 
• Do a bible study. Something I know absolutely nothing about, I am more then ready to learn more about Him. God's prob gonna have to pull me along the way sometime this year.
• Be more patient. 
• Take more photos. 

"..Cause you wanna take my picture..."

Say what you want but Kim Kardashian is just beautiful. Kudos to her for having a brave front as she gets butchered by the press. Break up's suck, what's worse is ending a marriage on international TV. Icky. I still love her ♥ 

This year something I really want to improve in is my photography, I would say I'm pretty creative and having a kinda decent camera I think this is something I can work on. I am trying to take a photo everyday this year. Not necessarily posing pictures, but things that I find beautiful through my eyes and attempting to capture it on my camera. Here is a few I have taken so far:

That Girls a Genius.

My sister, Janelle. 

She's pretty cool, cooler than your average sister or person. 

Apart from being cool, she is the kindest person that I have ever known! Now if you think back to how many people you have met since being born, that is a lot! ...?

My sister and I are really close. I am so lucky to say that, maybe it is the age difference (5 years) but she has always been there for me. She is really mature for a 17 year old, properly due to my over detailed stories I would tell her. 

I remember when I was around 15 maybe, I told her a secret and I cant remember fully but I think she told my Mum, I didn't speak to her for days! At that stage we were sharing a room, so it was very awkward. Apart from that issue she is the only person in the world I can fully trust. 

For some weird reason she looks up to me, but in a way I look up to her. 

To top off the perfection of my little sister, she just needs to settle down with a nice Christian boy :) or any guy should kinda be weary of how he does treat her in general, because watch out if she's not treated like royalty. Not kidding. 

Lets be honest.

Watching the X Factor results show annoyed me quite a bit with the whole Rachel Crow elimination and not for the reason you properly think. Nicole making the choice to make it a dead lock was kind of a fair choice, she even said afterwards she thought the votes would be more in favour of Rachel. I've seen it done a few times in Australian X Factor and there was no major controversy. Also kind of a strategic move I think, all remaining contestants would clearly beat Marcus Canty in the next round, hopefully not being saved a forth time. Rachel clearly has a future set with Disney and will be making it big in no time. Team Josh anywho!

Watched The Foo Fighters doco/movie Back and Fourth last night. It was interesting. Having little knowledge in the band and only knowing there big hits it was very intriguing to find out their history,what inspired them to write their songs and the many different band members they had throughout the years. I get quite annoyed at myself when I think of the music I listened to back in the days instead of pure goodness, like these guys. Dave Grohl is the man, you have to have such a passion for that line of work. I guess that's like any job though. Jesse put some of their songs on my Ipod so I look forward to being on that mean Foo Fighters buzz. 

14 more days till Christmas! Really looking forward to it. 

I believe in miracles, since you came along...

I have had a pretty good week, better then most. Except for getting sick at the end, so sick that my head feels like it is going to explode into confetti. 


I was lucky enough to go to Rainbows End twice this week, for those who don't know what Rainbows End is, its pretty much New Zealand's only theme park. Was fun! But I remember it being so much more exciting when I was younger. When I was in intermediate I remember going on the roller coaster, that was like 10 years ago, from then on I have never gone back on. I guess for the obvious reason. Since intermediate I have been back to the park several times and declared to who every I was with that "sorry I don't go on that ride.." and I meant it. So when I returned this week with my school, there were a good couple of hundred kids running around the park. One of the students from my school asked me if I would go on the roller coaster with them, as ready as I was to blurt out my usually reply  I looked at her, you could tell she was kinda scared. I agreed acting like it was nothing to me, so as macho as I was trying to be I couldn't hide my nervousness as I got on to what so many people call an amateur roller coaster and " oh that's nothing compared to Australia.." can you  not. 
Afterwards I was pretty happy with myself and I really enjoyed it. I think in my head I had held onto the fear I felt when I was 12, but at 22 I kinda wanted that fear and excitement because the Pirate Ship just wasn't cutting it. 


Apart from coming down with the flu which I'm sure my boss thinks I am faking because I went to rainbows end twice and then called in sick for the last few days, while I was at home I streamed the Victoria Secret 2011 Runway Show, not sure if that is the right name for it but it was awesome to watch! I am sure those models have the most fun! So in relation to the title of this blog post, here are a few of my favs.

The Passion Collection was my favourite.
