catfish19's Diaryland Diary

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-

It's a year today since I flew to L.A. and on to Detroit. That's so crazy... although it really does feel like that was a long time ago. Felt a bit sad for about two minutes that I'm not going back to camp, but realistically, I'm still paying off my credit card from last year.

Speaking of credit, oh my. I decided to try my ANZ eftpos card yesterday because I've paid off most of my overdraft and I was curious to see if it would work (I haven't touched that account in two years besides depositing into it). Back story: I left my ANZ account over $1000 in overdraft before going away and left it that way for five months - when I got back there were letters waiting, demanding payment. So, I went to pay for my lunch yesterday and the card declined and said "refer to issuer". I get calls all the time at work from people who have that happen, and it's always because they're just about on their way to Baycorp, the debt recovery company. I'm an unwanted customer! And the best thing is, I work for them! Lucky I got back when I did to start paying that all back, though, or I would have killed my credit rating and would never have got another credit card or hire purchase in my life. Crazy.

I was awake ridiculously early this morning, so I kept myself busy watching Garden State. Twice. I can't stop - I love it too much. I do think Zach Braff's lips are the real stars of the movie though - they're huge. They will take over the world.

Started planning my 21st this weekend. It's taken me long enough... Mum suggested a casino night, with fake money and roulette and blackjack and stuff, and cocktails, and she's so excited I'm just letting her do what she wants, really. I like gambling, and cocktails means I can get a new dress (although I feel it's practically compulsory to buy a new dress for one's 21st anyway, no matter what). I'm glad someone's excited about my upcoming milestone birthday, because I'm definitely not. Blah for being the centre of attention. And I have this secret fear that even though I have a million people to invite, nobody will show up. Realistically though, if I get my extended family along, that's a crowd in itself, so there's not too much danger of an empty room.

I'm hungry!
