Hello! Its that time of the month again. Pfff. Well i guess it has become a bit like that. MAybe even more erratic. Oh no! I'm Pregnant! So wats news? Well recently, my neighbours have started complaining i practise drums too much. Pfff. I guess it was kind of a fair call. Its just i've been practicing for years and now all of a sudden they complain? Weird. ANYWAY. WE went to drumtek and bought these things called "SoundOff Drum Set Silencers". Really they are just glorified pieces of wetsuit foam cut to shape to fit on a drum, and then packaged individually and sold at ridiculous prices. Well actually they ain't that bad, now i can practise for upwards of 3 hours a day, and no one can complain! yesssss. It seems i may get better, faster!

I've had some interesting adventures with the computer and software recently, culminating in a completely macalishious look to the desktop. Yes, that includes the objectdock! Here are a list of programs that are free and i have used and are making my com more efficient and kool-looking:

-Mozilla Firefox (Kicks Internet Explorer's Ass. Almost as kool as Mac's "Safari")
-ObjectDock Windowblinds (for the macalicious look)
-Mobydock (download form www.download.com its awesome)

I have become intensely interested in the band "Cog". They are actually quite amazingly good. The drummer is very inventive and the sound doesn't seem to get boring the more you listen to it. I am also listening to Ben Fold's new one, "Songs For Silverman" Its all good too. The duck thing was very successful, and hopefully i brightened up a few people's lives. I may consider doing it again sometime. I got a few sceptical people, and when they didn't take any chocolate, i ran 'em down and said "I'm not a terrorist, honest!"

Hey guys! I do have some interesting news to tell. After Hannah's 18th party the other night I had a brainstorm. I have decided to wear the duck costume i rented outside heidelberg station. I will hand out free chocolates and have a sign saying "Ducks Anonymous". Kelvin does not believe i will do it. But i will prove him wrong! Get on down to Heidelberg Station from 7:00am to 7:23am on Monday April 18th to get some of the action!

Well yea. I've been trying out some new music lately, with Cog being at the top of my list. They are like tool, only a bit different. Also new Ben Folds is pretty cool. News of a new slipknot live dvd has got me excited! Wow, i'd better go get some information on the guys i'm meant to be studying for the Art SAC... ok bye!

Hello! Yes it has been a while, but i guess the fact remains, as usual, i am lazy. Well, i do have a lot of news but the odds are i won't get all of it down. FIrst off me and mim broke it off, which is sad, but i guess it was for the best. (and yes, its the last time)

The holidays have been a blur for me so far, with the highlights being in going t the city w/barwood to see Robots in IMAX.(now thats a screen) The movie was pretty crap, but aren't all IMAX movies? Also in the city i ate some lasagna and saw the extremist's dad. I've been taking my camera absolutely everywhere, just in case. I've shot off 7 shots so far. I reckon they should be kool. I recently purchased Adobe Illustrator, it is proving a challenge. SO many buttons.

The badge thing has blown up in my face, people wanting more and more badges! I guess they are pretty cool, if i do say so myself.

I am also listening to a lot of music, but i think that isn't that different to normal. The latest thing for me is the Donnie Darko soundtrack. It is damn fine. Also, STARGATE ATLANTIS!!! Finally new sci-fi! I love it! I have a lot of homework, with all sorts of physics nasties to get through. I've been having band rehearsals with apollo and the crew, and i think we're gonna record some stuff pretty soon. Well i better be off to go to Apollo Bay for a week. Latr, and happy camping!
