Getting married in 5 more days. That’s pretty soon.
I’m making this little zine, kind of as a little gift for people that are coming. As with all zines that are needed to be done less than a week from now, I haven’t begun yet, but I’ll get there.
Narooma was sweet, the jam will from now on be renamed to the Narooma Kubb Jam I think.

Day 20- The importance of education
I guess it depends on the person. For me, I like to be learning. I’m currently doing a Master of Arts (Writing) by correspondence. I’m just doing it a couple of subjects at a time (well actually, one at the moment). Anyhow, it’s teaching me about a lot of techniques etc about writing. In the past, I guess I’ve always had some belief that I could write, and have written...
TRC: one of the worst bands going.
crossed-wires:
Disgracing the name of “hardcore” and disgracing Britain.
I saw this band when I was in London. I have seen some pretty shithouse bands in my time, but I don’t think I’ve seen any worse than this one.

yesterday was a big day- it was my bucks night. I’ve never been to a bucks night before, I don’t think any of us had come to think of it, but Ben, who is the best man for the wedding, he put some things together for a ripper day.
So we started at that park I posted pictures of last week, we had a…

Day 19- Disrespecting Your Parents
When I was about 10 years old, I had these friends that lived down the street. I think my Nanna and Pop were down, and when my friends asked if I could come over, Mum and Dad said no. So I just went anyway.

Here is a list of the Top 50 albums according to the Aria charts. I was going to write some sort of long post re: mainstream music, maybe another time. Anyhow, of these 50 albums I’ve heard about 3, I don’t own any. I downloaded Parkway Drive’s Deep Blue and listen to it occasionally.
I think I’m just a long way out of the loop of mainstream music.
Day 15- Your favourite Tumblrs
I guess I have been using Tumblr for about a year now.
Two of my favourite accounts are
@howispentmysummervacation
@heartshapedhouse
I don’t know either of those two personally, but I think that if we met we could be good mates.
I also like

Day 14- Your earliest memory
Hmm. Well until I was about 2 we lived in a tiny shack but the river on the outskirts of Bega. Unfortunately I don’t remember any of that, so that can’t go into that section. I have also been told some stories, especially about this character called “The Major”, someone who sounds like he belongs more in a BBC comedy series than in the country in Australia.
Anyway, when I...

Day 12- Bullet your whole day
Hmm, yesterday was not particularly exciting. It’s only 9am, so I’ll do the bullets for yesterday.
Woke up about 7:30am
Had breakfast (Just Right, then 2 pieces of raisin toast)
Went to work at the AIS. Dropped Francisca off at Belconnen on the way.
Just did one tour, not really hard stuff. Like every tour I did a footbag demonstration, so now 35 more people know about Footbag.
