Happy 1st Anniversary
Posted 13 years agoIt is me and
leons1 1st year anniversary!
And this is something I wrote for him...
True Love
I always doubted I would have a boyfriend
Even though I would dream and pray
Who'd have thought my true love was my very best friend
Who lived half a world away
You brighten my life so you are my light
Constantly chasing the dark away
You inspire my passion so you are my fire
Burning brighter and brighter each day
You are more to me than I could ever say
And I know that it's all true
You are all that is my dearest true love
Just as I am true love to you
To my dearest Leon on our first anniversary.
All my love, Ally

A Wonderful Summary Of My American Adventure
Posted 13 years agohttp://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3212421/
A lovely journal written by my wonderful
I couldn't have written a better version.
A song that has been stuck in my head for a while I shall now force on all of you!
Jet Lag - Simple Plan
What time is it where you are?
I miss you more than anything
Back at home you feel so far
Waitin' for the phone to ring
It's gettin’ lonely livin’ upside down
I don't even wanna be in this town
Tryin' to figure out the time zones makin' me crazy
You say good morning
When it's midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it's driving me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
What time is it where you are?
Five more days and I'll be home
I keep your picture in my car
I hate the thought of you alone
I've been keepin' busy all the time
Just to try to keep you off my mind
Tryin' to figure out the time zones makin’ me crazy
You say good morning
When it's midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it's drivin' me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Is so jet lagged
I miss you so bad [x5]
I wanna share your horizon
I miss you so bad
And see the same sunrising
I miss you so bad
Turn the hour hand back to when you were holding me.
You say good morning
When it's midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it's drivin' me mad
I miss when you say good morning
But it's midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it's drivin' me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jetlagged
Is so jetlagged
Is so jetlagged
I love you, honey. And I miss you. So much.

Shave My Head?!
Posted 14 years agoNot this time round, but I'm considering doing 'Worlds Greatest Shave' next year. It's when you have people sponser you to either shave or colour your hair and all the proceeds go to leukemia research.
Now, I have ridculously long hair which I am rather proud of. How could I not be, growing up a hairdressers daughter?
The question, my dear watchers, if I were to enter 'Worlds Greatest Shave' next year and COMPLETELY SHAVE MY HEAD, would you be willing to donate?
I am giving up something which I consider one of my best features and has taken years to grow and maintain. I think a few bucks from your end isn't much to ask. And it's for a good cause.
Someone close to someone I care for very much died from leukemia recently.
My own family has been no stranger to cancer. It runs in the family, breast cancer taking my Grandma from this world much too soon. I was only 2 when she died.
I have been wanting to do this for ages and I just want to do my part.
So, what do you all think?

My own family has been no stranger to cancer. It runs in the family, breast cancer taking my Grandma from this world much too soon. I was only 2 when she died.
I have been wanting to do this for ages and I just want to do my part.
So, what do you all think?
A Song I Have On My Mind Lately...
Posted 14 years agoFor you, my darling 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad7e.....eature=related
You're in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on
For only two
So close together
And when I'm with you
So close to feeling alive
A life goes by
Romantic dreams must die
So I bid mine goodbye
And never knew
So close was waiting
Waiting here with you
And now, forever, I know
All that I want is to hold you
So close
So close to reaching
That famous happy ending
Almost believing
This one's not pretend
Now you're beside me
And look how far we've come
So far
We are
So close...
Oh, how could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We're so close to reaching
That famous happy ending
Almost believing
This one's not pretend
Let's go on dreaming
Though we know we are
So close
So close, and still
So far...

RIP
Posted 14 years agoDo not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints of snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there;
I did not die.
For my dearest
with the passing of his Grandfather.
This is a poem I found long ago and have always been very fond of.

When I Came Back From Work Today.....

You Are Loved - The Life of a Girl with a Social Disorder
Posted 14 years agoI have a social disorder. When my mother went into labour with me she was having difficulty so I was delivered with forceps. This caused frontal lobal damage and is the cause of my disorder. I'll have it for the rest of my life. It is very mild and most of the time, no one can tell it's there. But it is and it has had a significant impact on who I am.
From a young age I was a victim of bullying. I know that kids are usually cruel, but it had scarred me for life.
My disorder tends to show in only one aspect of my life: Social interaction. I sometimes have a little trouble picking up social cues, for example, if someone is being extra subtle, I can't tell if they are joking, being serious, hinting at me to stop talking or to go away.
Because of this, I was a target for bullies. I was perfect for their amusement. They could tease and trick me to their hearts content and keep on doing so for ages because I didn't realise they were teasing me. This hurt me and had made me wary towards new people I met. But the worst was yet to come. My so-called 'friends' decided it would be fun to target me too. My 'best friend' would set me up in situations, making me the laughing stock of the school and I would be the last to know. The people who were supposed to be on my side betrayed me. This was the only time in my life I had ever wished I was dead. If it wasn't for the love and support of my family, I wouldn't have made it.
Fortunately, my Dad was offered a better job elsewhere so we moved interstate. It was a chance for a fresh start.
In my new school, it looked for a time I would fall back into the same routine, with the main bully starting to target me. But I had had enough of it and stood up to her. With that, I discovered I had a backbone and was capable of being strong within myself.
During this time, I also made my first TRUE friends. I'm still close to them and we still catch up on a regular basis. I am so thankful for having them in my life.
The rest of my school years passed smoothly for me. The only (and most traumatic) thing which happened was when a person within our group of friends attemped suicide in my final year. She died in hospital not long after. It further drove home how much I value my life and the lives of those I love. I still feel guilty that I didn't know what she was going through.
When school ended, I was surprised to hear many people tell me that they admired me. They admired my ability to be who I was and didn't care about what others thought about me. I had never thought much about it, to be honest. I just didn't want to live a lie anymore.
When I got out of high school, I moved on to my extra studies. I was having some trouble with my classmates so I told my teacher about my disorder. Afterwards he just treated me like I was dumb and talked to me like I was a slow five year old. I wanted to scream in his face "I AM NOT STUPID! THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY MIND!"
I came close to losing my first job because my boss thought I was being ignorant, when really I was just not picking up her subtle tone.
I remember just sitting at home, crying and asking God over and over "Why did this happen to me? Why couldn't have I been normal?"
During this time, I had joined a club for Doctor Who fans at my Mum's suggestion I needed to meet new people. Little did I know then that these people would turn out to be some of my closest and most trusted friends.
Eventually the stress became too much. I was planning on going on holiday anyway, so I gave my notice a few weeks before I was due to take my leave. I was given a very nice going away party and was told how much I would be missed. It took some time for me to realise I was bullied out of a job I was very capably doing for over a year by new management.
I went overseas for a month. It was freeing and exciting and just the breath of fresh air I needed. This was also the year I attended AnthroCon where I met many very dear friends and, unknowingly, my future boyfriend.
I came back to a new job then another, both firing me without notice. Though I constantly begged for them to tell me ways I could improve, they told me I was doing a great job and never got a repremand. I found out later I was one of the many victims of companies seeking free labour. The government pays for the three month training period and at that time you could be fired without notice. I beleive that scheme has been investigated.
Again, I had made wonderful friends at the last job and we still catch up when can, even though hardly any of us work for that company anymore.
As you can imagine, this did nothing for my self confidance. I began to withdraw from my friends and would break into tears without any reason. I was sad all the time and hardly anything would make me happy.
I went to my doctor, confused of what was happening to me. I was diagnosed with depression and was referred to a physcologist.
My physcologist was a wonderful man who helped me to face and heal old wounds which I had thought I had let go of. He helped me to realise that it didn't matter that I had a social disorder and there was nothing wrong with me. He helped me to see it didn't matter what the world thought, only what I thought about myself. He helped me out of a dark place and I am still deeply grateful to him.
Eventually I gained employment in my new job in a Nanny agency and found that I had a talent working with children. I was childish enough that they enjoyed being with me but strict enough they didn't push their luck. It just came naturally to me. My boss is a wonderful person who looks out for her employees. I very quickly became one of her most sought after nannies.
I'm now applying to university and hope to be a teacher to young children.
I can say for the first time in my life I am truly happy with all aspects of my life.
My life hasn't been easy, but by keeping my family and friends close and seeking help when I needed it, I overcame my past and became better person.
I thank God everyday he surrounded me with people who love me and allowing me to finally love myself for who I am.
I hope that by sharing this, I can encourage those who need help to seek it.
That you can't let your past dictate who you are today or who you can become.
You are not as alone as you think.
You are loved.

The Best News Ever!
Posted 14 years agoGather round, children, and I shall tell you a tale.....
OK, in all seriousness, here's the story:
I have been friends with
Leons1 for about three years now. He's been there for me as I've tried to be there for him, we've had many years of fun and friendship. He slowly became one of my closest and most trusted friends.
For the last year or so, that started to turn into something more for me. This was rather a change for me as I have never felt this way before. It took alot of courage to finally fess up to it, to be quite honest!
After considering many factors and after LOTS of encouraging talks with family and friends (Thanks for being so supportive, guys. You have NO idea how much I appreciated it), the main issue being that it will be a Long Distance Relationship, I decided it was worth the risk and I took a chance.
Long story short: We are together now and honestly, we couldn't be happier!
He's everything I have ever wanted.
He's what I never realised I needed.
I trust him.
I adore him.
He makes me smile when things are horrid as I do for him.
He's not my world nor am I his, but having eachother makes what we have in our lives that much brighter.
Honey, thanks for enhancing my life.

Oh, Martin Freeman, You Wonderful WONDERFUL Troll!
Posted 14 years agoThis just made my day, nay, my week, NAY, MY YEAR! *loves forever*
When Martin Causes An Entire Fandom To Freak Out
OK, explaining for those who don't get it:
Martin Freeman is an actor on 'Sherlock', a popular BBC show which lots of people adore and it's second season is being filmed right now.
A person working on the series, Paul McGuigan, tweeted what looks like Martin Freeman holding a handwritten sign saying "TE QUEIRO JAN + ROSALIA XXX", which loosely translates into "I love you Jan and Rosalia".
Jan and Rosalia run the "Martin Freeman Sexual Frustration" blog, which, due to Martin's current role, has ALOT of 'Sherlock' porn.
So the entire fandom is now freaking out! "HIDE YA PORN! THEY KNOW WE EXIST!"
With one photo, Martin Freeman sent an entire fandom into chaos!
Martin Freeman is the ULTIMATE troll!
