Woke up early today to do a boxing session at the gym - killer work out with my gym buddy Anh, left us both feeling 'RAW' (raw is also the name of the class hehe)Headed off to the hospital today to stay with Annie while my mom & dad went home to relax for abit. She was good today, no seizures, Richard came in and we just chatted and mucked around tasting jelly bellys. She dozed in and out of sleep in the afternoon, she does this alot once she snoozes -no noise can wake her up eheh
When my parents came in me & Richard took my car to the city for dinner mexican @ Baja Cantina @ Glebe, drove with the top down, with the warm breeze running through our hair, hardly even hearing the radio, yelling at eachother to hear each other ahhhhhh xD
Before dinner we browsed Gleebooks and i purchased this book, and letter stationary set (so cute i love this lil monkeyy)
There's a movie based on this book (search CANDY, with Heath Ledger and Abby Cornish whom i adoorreee she is so pretty and i love her acting)
Luke Davies - CANDY:' expertly maps the constricted corridor of love and addiction'
The confronting, dark, sexy and tender cult bestseller, illuminated by moments of redemption, pure love and finaly, hope.
Candy is a compelling journey into the heart of addiction. its claustrophobia and momentum. Is is also an unforgttable love story. From the heady narcissism of the narrators first days with his new love, Candy, and the relative innocence of their shared habit (the drug, heroine). Candy charts their spiralling, obsessive descent into addiction.
The movie was shot in sydney, and i think there are in newtown at one point of the movie.
