Getting there

June 27th, 2008
getting-there

So today I worked from midday to 9PM. Got to catch up with Ryan at work which is always good, he does an excellent job in Tech Bay. Up until 5.30 or so was regular day stuff, but then until 9 it was a bit different. You see, it was the first shift where I had worked past 7, so it was strange being in Tech until 9. I cleaned up a lot and now it looks so much better, just need to get on top of all the RA’s and then it will be all done. I think that is a part of my motivation to go to work, get my Tech Bay under control as well as make it the best one in Victoria and then Australia. I know I can get there eventually, but it will take a while. I’m sure no one minds that it has only got a little bit better since I started, but it will get there soon!

Other than working, I moved in to my new home about 3 weeks ago now. It is so good. I miss home, but it is much better here. I need to visit Dad and Brendon a bit more often I think. There is no down side to living here that is making me unhappy at all. This old guy Dave lives here, but he is ok, he just sits in his room all the time so its like he isn’t here at all! Sunny and Julian make a bit of noise until a bit late… mainly Julian, but I can generally fall asleep no problem.

It’s strange writing something that no one will probably read, but its good at the same time. I get to write down things that I probably wouldn’t say to anyone - a kind of vent. But I do hold some things in just in case someone does read it… I could get into a bit of strife if i wrote EVERYTHING!

I am looking forward to this weekend, for once I don’t have anything to do other than a party on Saturday night. It’s a good feeling. And I am looking forward to next weekend even more! Its my house warming! Should be lots of fun, and I’ll get to hang out with some people outside work which will be interesting… I’m sure I won’t do anything too embarrassing, and even if I do, I won’t care! Ha!

I moved out to Clarinda the other week and I am loving it!

So I got a bit too wasted over this weekend. But it was still awesome.

Saturday

Saturday night started out like any other, was at a party and as per usual, had about 5 beers before I went out. At first we went to Jo’s 21st at Damoe’s parents place, which was a nice little setup. Nice mood and Jo was having a good time and it was pretty fun. At about 9, Matt, Erin, Brad, Sas and myself went back to Clarinda to party down at Mark’s 22nd. It was a smash. Keg. Drank until about 2am and then stumbled home and passed out. Over all it was a good night. I can’t really remember much except some guy named Rory drank Cliff’s piss… Terrible. But funny.

Sunday

Woke up feeling shit as, and then went down to Hungry Jacks for the weekly band hangover meeting. It was good, but like normal, felt too shit to finish my meal, but that was ok. After that Erin, Sunny, Cliff and myself went to Harvey Norman so I could swap over my guitar from Guitar Hero 3. Did that and went to Chadstone and felt the hate towards people that enjoy shopping. Anyway, spent the day feeling shitty and doing nothing in particular and eventually Mark came over for some Children of Bodom pre-drinks… Which didn’t help my hangover at all!

At 7.30 Julian drove us into the city so we could get to the gig at Palace Theater, and we ran into some troubles. Airin and me went to the dunny to take a piss and Julian, Sunny and Mark made their way to the show, not realizing that Airin left her bag in the car. So that was quite hard to work out but after about an hour we were all inside the place and listening to some terrible tech death metal which sucked arse. Then 10.45 hit.

Children of Bodom came charging out on stage and played an awesome show and I continued to drink and push Julian around while head banging and loving the tunes.

On the way home we stopped off at maccas to get some drunk cheeseburgers, and it was a horrible idea. I ate 2 and a half cheeseburgers and felt like throwing up instantly, but I didn’t and made it home ok.

Monday (today)

Spent the day wishing I was dead. Not suicidal, but I just felt THAT BAD! Which leads me to this point in time where I am listening to music and writing this entry… and considering going to sleep. Which I will.

BYE!

Catch up

So heres whats been happening;

Paradise Beach Holiday

Last weekend (25 - 27th April) the Seedycrew went down to Paradise Beach. It was killer. Consumed lots of alcohol, typed a story and did heaps of awesome shit! Unfortunately Styf still has my camera for some reason (I kinda forgot she had it) and so I couldn’t take any photos while I was up there. As like any other holiday we all go on, there was Mario Kart and Pictochat/Dictochat action on the DS as well as a great time. It was pretty cold of a night down there, but other than that it was brilliant.

IXION (The Band)

The band has been quiet the last few weeks due to things like Matt playing a few shows with Vampora and not being able to practise with us, Mark becoming a Manager at The Reject Shop, Sunny being bogged down with Uni work, Jub being Jub and myself working full-time aswell. I have been writing new material as well as playing and extending the existing stuff, so hopefully we can all get together soon and put all together. It would be most awesome.

3

Three is still pissing me off with their shit service and stuff. After this contract I am leaving 3 and moving to another carrier… About time too.

Cats

These guys are still really annoying, with smelly breath. But they’re all good

Other than that there really isn’t much else which has been happening. I might be moving out to Sunny’s place soon which will be awesome, I just need to buy a new computer desk and save up some cash so when I do move, it won’t hurt the bank too much.

New plugins

So I have added a few new plugins for this blog;

  • A stat counter which shows me how many unique hits I get
  • An avatar shower
  • A pretty cool gallery fader

Thats about it really, so now when there is a party I can upload the photos to here and yeah have a fading thing sort of like in MySpace/Photobucket/DeviantArt! Huzzuh!

Testing new gallery thingo

New things

So I’ve decided to buy an Xbox360 after going to the OzBoxLive game night! It was so awesome! Mark from work invited myself and Mick from Dicksmith over to play Perfect Dark Zero over Xbox Live, and my god, its like playing Halo2 over Xlink Kai, but like, a billion times better! Not to mention Mark has the best gaming room. Projector with about a 2m screen, massive 5.1 surround sound, couches and many many games! Definitely going to get me a 360. After we played PDZ for about an hour or 2, Mick wanted to see me play Guitar Hero 3, so I did, they were amazed… naturally. Hahaha.

I also purchased new rims for my car with new tires for only $500 or so! Saved myself around $200! Plus they look awesome!

Well thats about it I suppose.

Update!

So I’ve been working a lot lately, as you do when you work Full Time, and its pretty awesome. I’m getting all my debts paid off and stuff, awesome feeling. Nothing else has really been happening - had the Easter party at Carey’s place on the weekend, that was awesome, but Pantsman fucked his feet up pretty bad and so I took him to the Emergency at Clayton Hospital and was there for like, 5 hours! Kinda shit, but at least he got some answers and some drugs.

Thinking of buying an Xbox360 and joining in the fun of OzBoxLive. The guy at work runs this and it sounds really fun. Every fortnight there is a game night on Xbox Live where they select some game and play a few rounds of it and have a good time. Have a listen to the Podcast, its the 8th most popular Podcast in Australia!

This Saturday is my grandparents 50th Anniversary so we are going to a resteraunt or something to celebrate that, then I’m heading over to Stanna’s for drinking and a bit o’ lan action. Then in a few weeks is Carey and Sam’s 21st and then the week after that is the holiday plan to 90 Mile Beach… should be awesome!

Falling into place

March 10th, 2008
falling-into-place

So my first pay finally came through today, and it was less than I was expecting but thats ok because I will be getting paid again on Thursday! Huzzuh!

I’ve started making a list of things that I need to do now before I lose interest;

  • Get one of the doors Brendon took off his cupboard and use it as a desk
  • Get some more things for my car
    • New carpet
    • New back speakers
  • Get some gym shoes and go to the gym

Thats about it i think… I’m sure there is more but I only just got up so…!

On the weekend I went out with Brad and Sas to some 21st party or something and it was soooo not what I (or Brad and Sas) were expecting. We got to the girls house and there was no sound of a party at all. We got into the lounge room area and there was like 6 people sitting around eating cheese and drinking wine… Very different. Any how, we sat around there for a little while and drank a glass of vodka and oj and then Brad, Sas and myself went back to Sas’ house and we drank more beer. After that we went out to Brunswick Street and hit up Bimbos. Bimbos is a club where guys hit on girls left right and center, but also grab their mates’ pants and pulls them closer to “talk”… it was quite fucked up. Any way after that we went to some other pub and drank more and eventually ended up back at Sas’ house drinking more and having a good time. So really, I had a great night on Saturday, it was very different and fun.

On Sunday Brad and myself went to the car show. It was so crazy awesome. I got about 60 photos of the cars and things and of a monster motorbike! That thing was cool as. I’ll work out how to put photos into this eventually and get some sort of gallery going.

Huge day

huge-day

Bloody hell! Today was massive. From about 10am onward there was a stream of customers, all of which had stupid retarded problems which either was solved by turning the thing off and then back on again (Ha! IT Crowd) or it was actually stuffed. I got my contract today, I need to read through it and stuff… Its like 100 pages though so a bit cbf right now. Oh yeah, the silly lady in payroll stuffed up my bank details so I might not be getting paid tomorrow… which is am gay.

Looking forward to tomorrow night, going out with Brad and Sas to some party of some sort… should be fun!

Welcome to the cane!

So here I am, still alive and now with my OWN blog! Huzzuh! Heaps has been happening with me, i recently got a new job. I work at Harvey Norman as a Computer Technician, not a salesman! I am really happy with this job as I get up in the morning and am really happy to get in my car and work for the next 8 to 9 hours.

I also had my car fixed up a bit, my spark plugs on the cylinders were shot, so I had to get them replaced. I can’t really think of much else right now, I guess I’ll be putting photos and stuff up on here when I work out what to share and shiz!
