A Travel Diary Of Sorts

my bestest bud in this whole wide (yet ever so slightly imploding on itself) social scene'ish world named anthony has decided he wants to chronicle the next 6 months of my movements for the sake of a play/novel (medium tbc)

i intend to be overseas traveling, exploring and self-destructing at various periods throughout 2009, culminating in a birthday celebration of epic proportions in july, european summer, most likely london and a little strip of sand in croatia with emily/morgan/georgia (they're an entity in their own right, meet 'it' and you'll understand the force that is to be reckoned with)

so i don't find my life particularly interesting, hence why i indulge in substance abuse, sometimes, otherwise it's re: boredom and just funny to watch people get f*cktarded and injure themselves... however, this generally appears to amuse people, especially when i'm the one getting f*cktarded and subsequently attempting bathroom gymnastics - backflips off couches and such whilst trying to smolder for elvis

note: elvis is not a musician, he can dance like michael jackson though and likes to take photos of my bum

p.s. you will meet a few interesting characters throughout the course of my musings


i've never been partial to journal writing, i wasn't the kind of little girl who ever kept a diary

i tend to ramble....... for instance, right now, the nurse keeps trying to steal my macbook and hospital beds are lonely places, just for the record (for those of you who get it WELL "i'm a tough cookie, i'll be fine" on repeat)


and so the adventure log begins with Welcome to the Wonderful World of sexyfunplaytime and cuddle-puddles..... this duo of social phenomena i and others have had the joy of founding

sexyfunplaytime (noun): jacs ally mumby lolly rossi circa mid-late 2007

cuddle-puddle (noun, sing.): born on sun. 21/12/2008 too early in the morning on a plane to perth with pavo and kitty kat, term coined by a chemically-charged boy named kimberley


plainly put, i can't be bothered to email everyone and keep you all up to date on my whereabouts and shenanigans... myspace hurts my laptop, people take it the wrong way when you don't reply on facebook, and i don't understand twitter (let alone have the patience to teach myself b/c i'm stubborn)... so this will have to suffice as my attempt to conquer the tyranny of distance and
impeded upon communication blah blah blah


retrospectioning (ryan's word), i guess it all started late last year when i abandoned all sense of self-discipline and allowed myself to be kidnapped (in someways) by a guitarist, actually a foreigner is better said....... you'll come to realise i'm a sucker for an accent, like really punish myself with these ones


so upon my return home i was interogated:

if being a doctor doesn't work out for you now that your role model
is penny lane, what will you do? be a lawyer (my brain hasn't ceased to function just b/c i said 'yes' - dragonette rings a bell here ladies and gents)

when you've been disbarred etc for malpractice, what will you do?
join a band, be a rockstar (not a poet/philosopher/musical genius prodigy... a rolling stone magazine circa the late 60s/early 70s brand of rockstar)

but jacquie you don't play any musical instruments particularly well
and are most likely tone deaf, hence why you listen to the music you do... what will you do then? liquidate all my assets and either buy a music group/record label, or start up my own one from scratch (my current flight of fancy entrepreneurial endeavour/mission to shit the parentals just a little bit more)

so finally we arrive at our destination, ending with an explanation of the title 'Poor Little Rich Girl' as chosen by anthony for me (i believe he intends this to be the title of his biography i suppose)

i have youth, i have money, money buys opportunity, opportunity makes relative unhappiness a little less unbearable, and the rest of the time is spent in a colourful psychedelic blur of love in its many forms, oh and laughter, lots of it with very unusual and unexpected individuals... typically involving shots and deviant behaviour

as i said before: Welcome to My World

peace, bedtime and the beatles kids x x x x


p.p.s. lesson learned overall: don't trust anthony to keep a secret, he's like perez hilton just not as gay

  1. OOoohhh hoo hoo... I'm looking forward to the development of this all too familiar story!!

    So sorry I didn't make it to North Bondi, I called but as I anticipated you were occupied! Had a birthday dinner that I absolutely could not miss.

    Enjoy your misadventure in Europa, and if this year is anything like last I should be able to rock it with you a Londres!

    I can't believe I didn't realise how debaucherous your life has been in ol'Sydney Town, and a little ashamed I didn't instigate further endless nights! Your stories would have made me feel a little less irregular at times when I thought I was turning into a sociopath.

    Have a remarkable time and I will catch you soon.

    PS make sure you get the world's best choc chip cookie from Wholefoods in Kensington.

    xx
