[ONE OF] THE GREATEST NIGHTS OF MY LIFE

I rarely write here anymore. But this is important...


Tonight I saw Mutemath at The Hi Fi, and they were just brilliant. I can't imagine another act topping tonight, not even Radiohead. And thats saying alot.

If your reading this, whoever you are. Add to your life list to SEE MUTEMATH. No joke. It's a must.

So uhhh hey......uhh.

I realised I havn't blogged here much this year, 3 at the moment besides this. And thats because this year blew by really fast. Like really fast. Its crazy!

I remember last year, I wrote that I had a feeling 2010 was going to be a great year, and it actually exceeded my expectations. Winter this year was actually pretty damn good too. No dramas for once.

Heres a brief rundown of 2010 so far:

Filming: great experiences have been made through making random videos both for uni assignments and personal purposes. The time, effort, petrol and money used to make these random films/videos have been worth it.

Made a youtube account to put our works up, a lot of room for improvement, but I'm proud of our stuff so far.

Music: had a few gigs earlier the year and they were a lot of fun. Playing music, hanging with mates that support you, having a few drinks, and people applauding and engaging in your band...sounds almost perfect.

Joined a band with mates just recently, we only have one song completed but this coming break should give us the opportunity to make more. We also made a Youtube account for it.

Recently bought a drum kit from a friend, been playing with it more than the bass and guitar combined lately. But still love the bass.

Uni/Graphic design: Uni was well.....uni.

I know I need to push myself more to improve in graphic design, and I'll be honest...I'm pretty happy with what I can do...BUT it's not good enough. Reflecting on myself now, I should've done a lot better with assignments and with the designing done for people. I feel like I havn't really learned anything new so it definitely tells me something about my works this year.

Overall uni has been alright, BUT I HATED INTERACTIVE DESIGN. Never again...

Skateboard: I remember writing somewhere in this blog sometime after Hawaii, that I'd love to surf more, but it never happened :( I probably can't even catch waves anymore. Back to square one if I ever get into it again this summer.

So instead...during Autumn, I pulled out my sisters old skateboard and took it everywhere I went. I skated as a kid before but an accident left me scarred for life...literally. But this year I overcame the fear and now Im in love with it again. Mates recently got into it as well so it makes it a lot more fun.

Basketball: I stopped playing competition 2 years ago because I lost interest..lost the love and my competitiveness. So this area has been pretty much dead this year, only play in the streets occasionally.

But now I miss it, I'll probably join a team next year...watching some of my mates play in comp is pretty nostalgic.

Feel so damn awkward playing though, can barely get anything in. WWMJD?

Thats all I can think of at the moment, and cbf writing anymore. But uhhhhh yeaaaaaah. Deeyumm!

Rain

I always hated the rain........

I have a video editing assignment due on Friday and I was supposed to go out and shoot today but the goddamn weather had to be a fucking cunt and curse us with rain. Now I may have to scrap my original plan and go with a new idea. Depending on when my guy is free and.....on the weather. I've already filmed a few footages for my original idea, and a lot of time, energy and money (petrol) was spent on shooting them.

My original idea was making a skate documentary, so I NEED to be outdoors, now I may need to think of something that just involves being indoors. Which is fucked, I really wanted to do this.

Guess this is how much I hate this kind of weather, venting it out on this blog.

Dreams

Too many dreams but so little time.

It's like picking the red or blue pill...do or die.

WAKE UP!

We're just a million little gods causing rainstorms, turning every good thing to rust.

(7) days left of summer.

As usual, summer has mended and patched up things winter/autumn screwed up. But I'm feeling (hoping) that the upcoming seasons will be different this time round.

I'm gonna miss Summer.

(Ps. I didn't do this artwork, I wish I did lol.)

New dawn. New day. New Life. (Part 2)

2009 went by like a whistle. Yet so many things happened within these quick 12 months.

At the moment, I dont know what to write...but theres so many things running through my mind about this year. So I'm just going to write down random thoughts/things I want to say in point form because...I dont know I just feel like letting some things out here:

- "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself turn into a villain" - Harvey Dent

- This year has been a stand out year, maybe because I've been put in situations where I was forced to compromise things I (strongly) believe in. Especially when I'd usually be in the opposite end of the situation.
