Gotta catch 'em all.


It's been a pretty boring few days. Boyfie's in Queensland visiting family, and I've spent the evenings reading on the couch at home after work. Or, like today, watching Sailor Moon and painting my nails blue. We applied for our first rental property today as well, mind you, so it's not all couch potato. Just mostly. Hashtag sloth lyf.

I did make plans on Saturday night, to catch a movie and scoff pancakes with a friend (who loves Geelong F.C. and Alice in Wonderland pancakes). We did the same major at uni, so in our time between dining and film-going we discussed film studies, good lit classes and great novels. So easy to kill time with this girl! We were almost late for our movie. Speaking of, if you haven't been to see Brooklyn yet, you absolutely definitely should. Unless you're completely not interested at all in the tale of a young Irish immigrant in Brooklyn in the 1950s, feeling homesick and finding love. Then maybe don't. But it's a breathtaking film; visually dynamic with lovely characters and some really wonderful acting... It's just beautiful. I'd been so keen to see it for weeks, and it didn't disappoint one bit. Go see!

Please take a moment to drool over my pokeball knit. I got it from a stall at PAX Aus 2015. It was expensive, but totally worth it. I refuse to wear it around the house; it gets saved for special fun days out. I don't want to get it dirty. It's made from nice heavy wool, so it hangs all floppy like. And it feels super well made. I did some quick snooping, and it looks like you can get it from a few online retailers, like welovefine.com. The pricing will probably be in USD though, so keep that in mind! I think I paid $70AUD for it. Same black Cotton On jeans. Same little black hand-me-down bag. Grey rip off Keds from K-Mart. x

P.S. While we're talking Pokemon, how exciting is the news that Nintendo will be releasing gen 7 later this year?! I've already decided on Pokemon Moon. Boyfie and I will probably attend the midnight launch at EB Games. We're going to keep ourselves occupied with the re-releases of gen 1 (I've just downloaded Yellow; he's getting Blue) and the new Mystery Dungeon (ordered today and waiting to arrive in the mail). Happy 20th anniversary, Pokemanz! What would my life be without you?
