cowboys and injuns???

so we went to brisbane a week or so ago for a friend's birthday party. it happened to be a fancy dress party. cowboys and indians. how appropriate?

i have come to realize that australia is quite politically incorrect, actually. coon cheese. jap pumpkins. redskin candy. gyp rock. i'm sure there are more. 

anyway, here are some shots...



it was hannah's birthday. she was pocahontas.

then we walked around. 
this was our friend, carlee's, house. it's lovely.

it was really nice to go to the city and get out of small byron for a bit.

next week i start my practical. this means i spend a week wiping oldies
bums and feeding them.

should be interesting. 

8 hr days at a nursing home and not getting paid. livin' the 
good life.

on a high note i bought two things this week that make me 
really happy.
1. black ballet crocs (which i never thought i would own)
2. redback work boots.

oh and i bought tickets to splendour in the grass (i am soooooo excited to see sigur ros)

you must have used a hand model for that picture of the 'red skins'. Great structure and pigmentation. if you ever need me to model any products again, just let me know. Next time it may cost you though. By the way. How did prac go?

first off... what in the heck is that pink thing that rach is wearing????? that doesn't look anything like a cowboy or an indian. maybe a india indian... but that's about it. secondly, where did you buy tickets too???... to come home??? that would be fun!!
