<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">Today I got told by someone that they don't believe that I was given my entire heart back from an ex...so it got me thinking...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><div style="font-size: 13px;">

A heart is a gift you give with careful consideration. A gift that you hope that person will keep and protect for the rest of their life. So why should you expect the entire thing to be given back to you when the decision is made to return it. No, you will always leave behind the smallest amount of it with them…after all, it was theirs too.</span></div>

As we entered the town on the bus late in the night, I could only see lights twinkling though the rain splattered windows and couldn't help but let my imagination run wild thinking they were the homes of the fey fold and we were now entering their magical realm...<br />

I have told work that I am moving overseas next year, and whilst they know I will be leaving end of March, they have still extended my contract past my December end date until my departure overseas (well, that and they are trying to convince me not to go!) It is nice to know that I must be doing something right at work! :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">But onto merrier things, and official plannings of my trip next year!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I am eager to also get into some more of my photography, and now knowing where my paychecks will continue to come from, I might just splurge over christmas and get myself a new snazzy camera! (to go with the mac computer I will buy in the states next year!) so you can guarentee that I will be continueing with my photography. Think of all the amazing beautiful scenery I can use as a back drop in Europe!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So it has been a while since I have gotten out and used my camera for photography purposes. The unfortunate thing is the DSLR that I was using ran out of battery really quickly (doh!) so I started using my phone. Not the quality that I wanted sadly (nor are these pictures) but atleast it got me out and about again. I do really need to buy a new DSLR, perhaps I will do this soon...anyone want to give me the money? :)<br /><br />Even without the better quality, I still enjoyed it, and have started training up my new photo monkey :) as she is moving to the UK with me next year, I will need her to get comfortable in front of the camera, as I won't have my dear Sally to indulge me in crazy photo days (sadface). I think Emmah did an amazing job, and she looked so beautiful!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The sun was shining over the beautiful bushlands that is the King Lake National Park in Victoria, and for the most part it was delightfully quiet. Only a few cars from past (cue Emmah awkwardly freezing up half naked when one drove past!) and made for an awesome day, followed by eggplant parmagiana's in the St Andrews pub! </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I now remember why I love this so much :) </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The problem with not having my own camera currently (lost and or dead for both cameras...sad...) is that I end up take phone "selfies" (boy do I hate that word!) as I can't justify having actually photo shoots using my iphone... it just seems sad and pathetic. But, here we are, taking photos of myself on a bright and sunny Melbourne day, while a gust of wind breezes on through.</span></div>

Whilst I am finally settling in at work and finding my niche working with high risk adolescence (such incredible kids, with such traumatic histories), I still can't help my mind wandering to the great unknown. I still yearn for travel and working in communities who have fewer oppotunities given to them. The government here can provide and fund for so many opportunities for the kids of Australia. Now I want to be able to provide opportunities for those else where. Combine my desire for social work with my ever growing desire for travel. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I have been reminiscing so much lately on the adventures that I have already been blessed to experience.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I have been busy making plans to explore and travel the world next year and have begun my savings to do so.

So it turns out my new years resolution of blogging more was a fail. here we are 6 months down the track and I have not once sat down to write a blog. I would be lying if I said I hadn't thought about it. Rather I was uninspired to write anything. The big dramas in life got in the way of my creative side this year.<br />The big things in my life revolved around job hunting, which resulted in a pretty spectacular job working with high risk adolescence, which as you can imagine takes its toll on you. Other things involve the divorce process happening between my parents and the affect that has had on my family... as you can imagine, all of these things have left me little time to dream as I would normally. It has left me little time to seek creative nurturing, and I have come to realise that now is the time I need it most. A dream to escape and seperate myself from the harsh realities of my work and those things in my personal life that I find painful.<br /><br />With winter drawing in closer the rain has awoken me once more. Those who know me well, know that the rain is a source inspiration and where I feel my soul become cleansed. I am suddenly rebirthed and contemplative and the dreaming washes over me. The raindrops greet me and kiss my face like a lover whilst the wind wraps me in it's arms like an old friend and I am suddenly home.<br />
<br />
Let me share with you what inspires me right now.<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZKUzNF21n9w" width="420"></iframe><br />

I sure can't.<br />
This year is bound to be full of new adventure for me. Not necessarily the adventures that I had planned (but really, planned adventures aren't always as fabulous as those that you find unexpectantly), but full of the possibilities for adventure!<br />
<br />
Originally I had planned to save up money like mad, and bugger off overseas where I can spread my wings, and live like the gypsy I had always wanted to live like (with many more showers though) and embark on what was sure to be the beginning of the great love of my life, a big wide world to roam.<br />
HOWEVER, as always, life takes an unexpected turn. My little sister has just gotten engaged, and has asked me to be her bridesmaid. Amazing really, so in no way a terrible turn. Just an unexpected one.<br />
So I will ofcourse be sticking around to help her out, and soon after the wedding in just over a year, I will take flight on my original course (life pending).<br />
<br />
I am a big believer in everything happening for a reason, so it appears, that for the time being, I am in the right place, the place I need to be in.<br />
<br />
SO - all of this has made me contemplate what the year ahead might look like now. First and foremost it will be about getting myself a full time social work job. With a year to gain experience, this is a biggy. I am exceptionally nervous about it though, being that it seems to be the final fronteer of becoming an adult, not something I am necessarily keen on. (you know, aside from moving out of home, which I do often when I move overseas each time anyway, so atleast I will get an opportunity to do some serious savings this year).<br />
<br />
Secondly, I am making it the year of Ruby. This year I want to take more time for myself. Sure it sounds like every other new years resolution that people make, lose weight, get fit, blah blah blah. But I am not looking at it that way. I am looking more at my mental health, take yoga classes, meditate, do more of the things I love like photography, camping. If I am able to get into a 9-5 job (lets see how that will go...) I will have weekends suddenly freed up (that never happens for me!!) and can whisk myself away with my new swag (thanks santa!) and my camera and explore and immerse myself back in nature.<br />
Also it means no more night time work either. Wahoo! think of the time I can spend now reading books (other than text books for uni) and spending time with friends over coffees, and time for bubble baths, and general RnR that I never used to have time for.<br />Corny really, but its those small things that I am seriously looking forward to.<br /><br />I will also be embarking on another blog type adventure with my sister. She wants to start blogging about lingerie and swimwear for every body type, so this will be a new venture to tackle I suppose. Let's see how that pans out!!<br /><br />I wish you all a wonderful new year, and amazing adventures that the year has to bring :)<br />

Unfortunately I have had a severely hectic time!!<br />Basically to fill you in, in a nutshell I have completed my university degree, and graduated, and have been stuck waitressing through the busy holiday period. I would like to think that cramming and stressing to graduate is an acceptable reason for my neglect. I do have some things I would like to share within the next few days, and start up my blogging once more, if of course, you will still allow me to do so with all of my recent blogging failures!<br />
<br />
Much Love<br />Ruby xox<br />

So after getting back from the Philippines I had an art day with Sally so that I can once again get used to handling a lovely DSLR. here is what I have so far. it's particularly chilled. it was a fun day though :)<br />

My life has been hectic to say the least - having come back from living in the Philippines trapsing across Europe visint long lost friends and penpals (you can read about it all <a href="http://wildgypsyheart.blogspot.com/">here</a>), coming home to uni, placements (I am now working with people who have experienced sexual assault or domestic violence), writing research papers, putting my waitress uniform back on on nights and weekends, working within turbulent family dramas and just trying to adjust back to a new world. Not to say that Australia is new to me at all, but after coming back from living in a developing country, I have come back with new eyes and new perspectives which make it hard to fit exactly where i once did.<br />
<br />
Needless to say I have been ridiculously busy... and for this, I am sorry.<br />
<br />
So please accept my token of apology with this song. It makes me happy and feel free ...That and Lisa Mitchell is pretty much amazing. just saying.<br />

I had to write a short piece on my favourite Sonnet, and this is what I have.<br /><br /><strong>Sonnet 20 A woman's face with nature's own hand</strong><br /><em><br />A woman's face with Nature's own hand painted<br />Hast thou, the master-mistress of my passion;<br />A woman's gentle heart, but not acquainted<br />With shifting change, as is false women's fashion;<br />An eye more bright than theirs, less false in rolling,<br />Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth;<br />A man in hue, all 'hues' in his controlling,<br />Much steals men's eyes and women's souls amazeth.<br />And for a woman wert thou first created;<br />Till Nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting,<br />And by addition me of thee defeated,<br />By adding one thing to my purpose nothing.<br />But since she prick'd thee out for women's pleasure,<br />Mine be thy love and thy love's use their treasure.</em> <br /><br /><br />To pick a favourite Shakespeare sonnet appears to be an almost impossible task. If I was to pick one at this moment in time, I would have to pick sonnet 20. There are many reasons for this, one of which is that the sonnet is an amazing representation of the fluidity of sexuality and love that was common practice within the renaissance. It is beautifully descriptive of a love that is without labels, and is at the same time exceptionally bittersweet, as it is a love that can’t be embraced to loves’ full capacity.<br /><br />He speaks about how the holder of his hearts’ passion is male, but feminine in all features. His love is a creation of nature that nature herself loved greatly and turned into a man for her own desire. He then speaks about how the relationship cannot come to full fruition, and that the man will be there for women to love physically but Shakespeare will have the young man’s heart. The love he (Shakespeare) holds for this young man is arguably not of a sexual variety, rather, it is about a heartfelt, deep love that exceeds the physical which is a rare commodity in this day and age. It’s also a rarity of the age we are living in now to live without labels. This century that we now live in, particularly within western societies, is obsessed with labeling people. To have a pure love undefined makes this particular sonnet that much more appealing. Their love is a deep connection that transcends all societal expectations and creates its’ own reality. Furthermore, the controversy that this kind of love would cause back in the renaissance and today is something I love. It’s breaking through the conventional barriers that society puts in place to instill what love is believed to be.<br /><br />The sonnet itself uses beautiful imagery to explore the love Shakespeare holds for this man. I am fond of the way that it flows gently, which suggests the fluidity of the love described, and nature alike. For me, nature is a wonderful choice of describing the creation of this man, and arguably the nature of their relationship. It suggests that love is natural, no matter how it is presented. <br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbpT8Yml1JBHsv_1jPka4NDJDg3znVoS-GY05IyAKem-GXny7pGZGHd7jMSBqFEVIH3uk9qlrmjyd6PJx3p8IkZlJqrn-0btEhD1YGmrig94Ws3ctMWcmYoTsxsOYjlA-B5ZXWWcvaMTyk/s1600/kiss_1_by_Dodonpa.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbpT8Yml1JBHsv_1jPka4NDJDg3znVoS-GY05IyAKem-GXny7pGZGHd7jMSBqFEVIH3uk9qlrmjyd6PJx3p8IkZlJqrn-0btEhD1YGmrig94Ws3ctMWcmYoTsxsOYjlA-B5ZXWWcvaMTyk/s400/kiss_1_by_Dodonpa.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680022119819243730" /></a><br /><br />Photograph - dodonpa.deviantart.comRuby Feyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045809785491746641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7799074251859974796.post-62230556131555333012011-11-07T23:27:00.000-08:002011-11-07T23:44:24.065-08:00i feel nakedPhotography for me is relaxing. and without it i feel naked, lost and a bit strung out.<br />A few weeks ago my DSLR died.

It was the rational part of her, the part that informed her voice to resist the urge to scream with the wildness inside herself. <br />She feared that one day she wouldn't be able to hold the beast within and it would emerge with intense animalistic passion, clawing viciously at anything that acted as a barrier to the raw flesh she wished to devour hungrily. <br />Once the beast was subdued, would he lie beside her, tangled in her naked flesh, purring softly in tune with her rhythmic breath?<br />Curled in each others bodies, fitting together like jagged puzzle pieces, and moulded into one picture perfect moment?<br />Would he whisper stories of the past and the stars and Shakespeare to calm her ever wild spirit?<br />Would he smile wickedly at her once more, before he eagerly consumes her entirely?<br /><br />She repressed the wild roar inside herself and ignored the growing sensation that surges through her limbs to reach out and snare her prey, as he walks unknowingly past.<br /><br />Today it is her head that wins.

He created the most amazing music hiding away in his hotel rooms, with old records, a laptop, the most random assortment of any instrument he could get his hands on, and of course his most wonderful voice. <br /><br />And so Gotye was created.<br /><br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />On Sunday night I headed out on the town with miss Sally to the forum. I had never been to this venue before, and i fell in love. It's roof is painted like the night sky (and of course the nerd in me went straight to harry potter <span style="font-style:italic;">It's bewitched to look like the night sky. I read about it, in "Hogwarts: A History."</span>)<br />Anyway, as much as i love Harry, its completely off topic.<br /><br />I have seen Gotye play several times before, and Wally play even more with his band the basics. sure, there may have been some 18 year old band stalking going on with me, Sally, and a few others, but really it was ok because we became friends with the band (thanks to sally and her bonding over the red headed gene via myspace!)<br /><br />It's been a few years since I had seen Gotye play, and he really didn't disappoint. I fell in love with him and his music all over again. He told us he was battling a chest infection on the night, and you really couldn't tell. his voice was as eargasmic as always, and he put 110% into his performance. There was animations and lights and instruments galore, and he was amazing and down to earth with the audience.<br /><br />All I can say is that Wally, you amaze me :)<br /><br />And this song never ceases to make me want to get up and have a bit of a boogy (which is currently gaining me strange looks as I am in the library at uni, with my bright blue ear phones procrastinating over assignments yet to be completed. Nope, stuff those, Wally takes precedent! aaaaaaand cue boogy!)<br /><br />Have a listen for yourself, and get those hips a shakin!<br /><br /><iframe width="450" height="283" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4HwgDDw5350" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <br /><br /><br />Much love, Ruby xoxRuby Feyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045809785491746641noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7799074251859974796.post-58063655860558998712011-09-19T16:41:00.000-07:002011-09-19T17:01:36.606-07:00For you and I are past our dancing days...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFPUBbz_kr56i3k047Ao9jlpkGsI6_Gk5HfuBnny3G_MgDzp84A9tFcDfnjkpXukXwUJi7tBIpQkJS8OL7RwKFjW0Nv3NCEFlOZyyFMqO7IrtfE3iAcNnhOHyS18EKC2J3jKsHLQn0yfTE/s1600/romeojuliet2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFPUBbz_kr56i3k047Ao9jlpkGsI6_Gk5HfuBnny3G_MgDzp84A9tFcDfnjkpXukXwUJi7tBIpQkJS8OL7RwKFjW0Nv3NCEFlOZyyFMqO7IrtfE3iAcNnhOHyS18EKC2J3jKsHLQn0yfTE/s400/romeojuliet2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654224577109252274" /></a><br /><br />just last week, i fell in love. <br />I fell in love with the Australian Ballet, I fell in love with beautiful set designs, I fell in love with amazing dancing, and I fell head over heels once again with Romeo and Juliet, and their tragic romance.<br /><br />I went with Sally, Emmah and Stephanie to see the Australian Ballet's production of Romeo and Juliet last Monday night and began to feel quite fancy sitting second row from the front during their charity 'never before seen' preview of the new choreography.<br /><br />I have to say i concur with everything dear Sally had to say in her <a href="http://adventuresoftheurbanfaerie.blogspot.com/2011/09/romeo-and-juliet-australian-ballet.html">blog</a> about the performance. unfortunately I have not been gifted with poetic articulation like her to be able to describe the production.<br /><br />What I can tell you is that the ball room scene was beyond beautiful, and i forgot myself for a brief amount of time, lost completely in the movement and tale.<br />The Balcony scene was beyond perfect in its beauty. So perfect in fact that i shed a secret tear, which i quickly covered up. I know, it sounds so lame and cliched, but it really was moving, and I am such an adoring fan of the story of Romeo and Juliet.<br /><br /> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj65hvWYCO7Dw3OPuDNYKgP0etykn8EyPeOGeJ-yQ1dcLkSLOVsA9K89qLDgNBrVoPNUqosH0w7qoJe_crGKPeeVQ2tKLY3JlS03eF26GkBKXQISjelBnnknVpVZH8TwWj_M6KObE0Gtii-/s1600/RandJ.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 217px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj65hvWYCO7Dw3OPuDNYKgP0etykn8EyPeOGeJ-yQ1dcLkSLOVsA9K89qLDgNBrVoPNUqosH0w7qoJe_crGKPeeVQ2tKLY3JlS03eF26GkBKXQISjelBnnknVpVZH8TwWj_M6KObE0Gtii-/s400/RandJ.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654224575671306418" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpHgDfI2MBOUTuEFgApsQKzWJhq3hpD8zFbTA8uohbAfincqp4DOAfFcYe7Vux9cMVD7YLW2MawMKzjhukZ0Pojx97suhE80lVHEPxIu8O_LCkQ3WHydSlFpjTcLdn1Xbot_8LKmyRqLH/s1600/displayContentImage.asp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 220px; height: 220px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpHgDfI2MBOUTuEFgApsQKzWJhq3hpD8zFbTA8uohbAfincqp4DOAfFcYe7Vux9cMVD7YLW2MawMKzjhukZ0Pojx97suhE80lVHEPxIu8O_LCkQ3WHydSlFpjTcLdn1Xbot_8LKmyRqLH/s400/displayContentImage.asp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654224571027390306" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ymHcs0FdiiR6i2x1d2-VvacOXGROK15fDH-FRilSy6O68muSIzRo55XRWu1WLacBxAhHkc0843AZR6Ze_A4WkCfm-NfLTMtEAASUSmFfJqHVHrGLokukH9ScnjPJg3lclBl0c5rHqkmd/s1600/AB_Romeo_Juliet_12.aspx"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ymHcs0FdiiR6i2x1d2-VvacOXGROK15fDH-FRilSy6O68muSIzRo55XRWu1WLacBxAhHkc0843AZR6Ze_A4WkCfm-NfLTMtEAASUSmFfJqHVHrGLokukH9ScnjPJg3lclBl0c5rHqkmd/s400/AB_Romeo_Juliet_12.aspx" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654224573745939490" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiwOQDn2ku-lBwW5R3MSN3TDpwHoFfySs2sSaq0p7ApWM_gUSWR2RicLVZHPkMbvayVilnOQVJXLSL14OyZtsUbYd2cb1jRQnKB2mJPZtaGm0HDjoc8mvmw94NCW4kCjDGXtBNqXATlE2G/s1600/194831-110915-australian-ballet-romeo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiwOQDn2ku-lBwW5R3MSN3TDpwHoFfySs2sSaq0p7ApWM_gUSWR2RicLVZHPkMbvayVilnOQVJXLSL14OyZtsUbYd2cb1jRQnKB2mJPZtaGm0HDjoc8mvmw94NCW4kCjDGXtBNqXATlE2G/s400/194831-110915-australian-ballet-romeo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654224569893381090" /></a>Ruby Feyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045809785491746641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7799074251859974796.post-53127223761367477732011-09-10T18:34:00.000-07:002011-09-10T18:42:59.428-07:00a creature i know and lovefor all the laura marling fans that are out there in the universe, you will all know that in the last few days her new album "a creature i don't know" has come out.<br />you will also know how amazing she is. in all honesty this girl is the ultimate of my girl crushes, i just love her, and her new album is no exception. i have found that it is so different from any of hers. it's quite amazing how every album has its own sound, nothing the same (like her own unique musical finger print :) boy oh boy she is cool!)<br /><br />Here is a sample for you of her absolute amazing talent :)<br />prepare yourself for ultimate squee-age.<br /><br /><iframe width="450" height="283" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/j-TMl5oCRjk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>Ruby Feyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045809785491746641noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7799074251859974796.post-80974325724973497202011-09-02T18:29:00.000-07:002011-09-02T18:49:54.227-07:00yep, i stalked them once because they are cool.now, my aim is not to sound too much like a crazy stalker freak, but once upon a time Sally and I found this amazing band, nobody quite knew who they were so we like to claim them as our own. we joined in the art of hippy and reggae dancing (and like to think we have it down pretty well) and once travelled far and wide to the mystical land that is Ballarat. It was a great trip, we peered through windows to watch them practice (which is when they saw us and possible were a little worried, hehe) and then spent the night in the Karova lounge putting our epic dance skills into action with two middle aged fans. we even mustered up the courage to talk to them, and now i have myself a signed cd. Sally explains this marvellously in her blog story of that fateful night <a href="http://adventuresoftheurbanfaerie.blogspot.com/2009/05/b-is-for-bonjah-beats-and-beer.html">right here :)</a>
<br />Then there were the times where they played at both my university, as well as Sally's and once again we were able to show the city of melbourne our uber cool moves. Now they are a bit bigger, and we have stalked them less, but fate shone down on us last saturday evening, with me not having to work and tickets still available at the corner hotel to see our beloved band.
<br />
<br />..Yes, i am talking about the one and only Bonjah!
<br />They were amazing, and i remember all the reasons why they were top on our stalking list for some time. While there was less room to bust a move, and more hippies whipping us in the face with there extra long dreaded hair, we still gave it our all with head boppage.
<br />
<br />Then they amazingly did a song with the two opening acts Daniel Lee Kendall (who has the most amazing dance moves that can be likened to those of Napoleon Dynamite and possible a robot - yes that does make me love him more) and the Joe Kings. The most amazing song choice for this supergroup was ofcourse "I touch myself" and there is no possible way i could love these guys anymore. It was such a wonderful night, lets do it again!
<br />
<br />
<br />However the next morning i had to wake up early to set up a market stall at the most wonderful Camberwell Markets (full of trinkets and vintage fair) with the lovely miss Emmah, the sun was shining and you knew that spring was just around the corner (and voila, here it is...the spring has sprung, the grass is ris, i wonder where the birdies is??)
<br />
<br />Here is some wonderful Bonjah tuneage so you may also hippy dance your way into this lovely spring weather.

She has dreamed of that freedom, that power, and fears the wilderness in herself that wants to live as beasts live, moved purely by need and desire. She has felt torn between the heat of her limbs and the thoughts in her mind telling her to be careful and good and always calm. Don't scream or cry, don't run to him and throw yourself at his feet, pleading for him to take you in his arms, don't strip off your clothes and run naked to the water, wild with wanting.
