It's coming in and over.

Starting to have content worth blogging about. To be honest, not a great deal has changed thus far, but things are on the cusp of changing. Going to be travelling, NZ this winter hopefully for a week or so to see how much I really do like the snow and cold, then off to Canada at the end of the year if everything goes to plan, even if it doesn't, I will travel somehow, somewhere. Not much lighting work on, but there is a fair bit of photography stuff on the go which is good, but I have put in a resume to Gloria Jean's Coffee for their Robina branch to see if I can get some pocket money in the quiet times.

This year has been interesting people wise, reconnected with a few old school mates from primary school (Grade 5 days and below, as I moved in grade 5). In particular a girl named Larissa, I was hoping that she would be as lovely and sweet as the childhood memory had her ingrained, and much to my delight she is! So glad to be talking to her once again, its things like that which have brought me out of my down spout at the start of the year. Also met a girl named Katrina, such a sweetheart, so kind and lovely, we have been talking and hanging out a fair bit which is great. I am so grateful for the people I have met in life, the experiences and moments shared, I personally feel it makes me a better person.

As for projects, started a online radio station with my mate Ben Childs from Sydney called RadioFiber. We have a fairly dedicated listener base and it is growing quite fast which is great. I am still super keen to produce/make/mix music, doing a live music gig on Thursday (14th April) called Barefoot @ The Basement, it's put on by Goat Track Theatre Company underneath the Vonda Youngman Centre on Mt Tamborine. Should tag along, I don't get paid to promote it, I would only recommend it if it was good, and there are always great, extremely talented young people there so check it out if you are not doing anything.

I finally bought a Mini, a 78 Clubman S to be exact. It is great, stripped down mid way through its restoration, but should be great when it is done up, one of the few cars that can be called an asset as they appreciate in value, so that must be a good thing. Going to respray her in Gun Metal Grey me thinks, might go super stealth with flat/satin black though...

That is all I can think of for now, will try to blog more and upload more photos, but for now, as my friend Lars says, increase the peace!
