Chez Moi: October 2012
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 31. Escapism and fairy tales. I've been dreaming a lot lately. Day and night. The nighttime ones are full of riddles and oddities; recurrences, water, sea monsters that turn out to be friendly, storms that turn out to be good for surfing, friends, family, and strangers (or perhaps people I just don't know yet? Which, unfortunately, does not help me get done some things that need doing for any of these day or night dreams to come to fruition. In order to make sure I arrived at the race ...

Chez Moi: July 2013

Wednesday, July 24. At The End Of The Line by Leif Vollebekk on Grooveshark. Listen to this while you read the post.if it's not working, click here. It'll open in a separate window). I missed my stop on the bus this evening in downtown Sydney and had to walk a couple blocks back to the main station to catch the next bus home. I had my headphones in because there had been some punk kids listening to rap music in the seat behind me and it was annoying (.get off my lawn! Friday, July 19. I am currently sitt...

Chez Moi: One month in
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2013/08/i-know-im-due-for-update.html
Sunday, August 18. I know I'm due for an update. Or, at least, some. One major item I have at least ticked off my list now is finding an apartment! Be even more tidy and organised than I am (! Not only did she take me to Ikea yesterday and help me close out the store (and then build my bed), but we went for a fantastic brunch this morning, and then did some grocery shopping too. Roommate win! I'm currently drinking a really delicious cup of loose leaf tea in a double glass-walled bodum cup (she knows.

Chez Moi: May 2011
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 22. Musings for a long weekend. About a year ago today, actually.*sob! And for the record, stroke-addled or not, my grandmother is still the most amazing woman. Another impetus for the philosophical edge these days is my new schedule, which involves nearly full-time hours at Meridian Credit Union. Now don't get all sarcastic "poor you" on me, I'm a student! A regular schedule is new territory that takes time to get used to! And just for the degree? I don't even want to be a lawyer! And why di...

Chez Moi: October 2013
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 31. So, I am currently testing out a new blogging platform, and although I am not sure which one I will like better, for now I'm posting from Wordpress. So check it out there for updates (hint, there are a couple already), and I will keep this one here until I make my final decision. I will let you know! And if any fellow bloggers have pros/cons about either or any thoughts on other faves and which is better, let me know in the comments! Click below for the new link! Monday, October 7.

Chez Moi: 100th Post!
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2013/10/100th-post.html
Monday, October 7. In honour of this, my 100th post on this blog, Sydney had a massive firework show! Happy 100th Blog Post, Robyn Thiessen! Well, no, it was actually the 100th Anniversary of the. well, just read this excerpt. Prince Harry came, as per custom, to kick things off and represent the Queen, and over one million. Here is a short video clip found on youtube of the fireworks in action, if you're interested! And a few poor-quality phone pics I took from the Glenmore Hotel. I've been to the beach...

Chez Moi: August 2012
http://chezrobyn.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 5. You might as well. Firewood, by Regina Spektor. The piano is not firewood yet. They try to remember but still they forget. That the heart beats in threes. Just like a waltz. And nothing can stop you from dancing. Rise from your cold hospital bed. Everyone knows you're going to live. So you might as well start trying. The piano is not firewood yet. But the cold does get cold. So it soon might be that. I'll take it apart, call up my friends. And we'll warm up our hands by the fire. Me, on...
