the cake is a lie

45 degrees. too. fucking. hot.

currently hiding inside working on photography portfolio . . . which ive got like two weeks to finish since ive been putting off on account of nervousness and general hatred of my photos.  so i figured id finish the last half of it off to have it done then spend the last week or so going over it and adding or subtracting things. ive just finished going through my film photos and they pretty much suck. ive managed to find one shot that i fucking love and a couple that are maybes . . . i mean i love the maybes but they dont really fit in.

ugh. sucks.

ev..ever...more?

what the fuck happened? evermore dissappear for a few months and then pop back in with a new sound and new hair. the lead singer now looks like a blonde robert smith and the drummer looks like he's straight out of nazi germany. 

that aside, im currently in the loungeroom wondering what to do while listening to jannelle monae.

BTW if you read this fil, post a link to your blog for me since i cant find the fucking thing! (and anyone else i know that blogs, feel free to post a link so i have fun things to read)

ive had an eventful couple of days which is pretty neat. there's been a big upheaval at work which has left us without a manager AND a 2ic and things are slowly starting to work themselves out. sort of.

aaaannnddddd yesterday i had a really good day out with the missus :)

we ended up first at DFO (which sucked balls and i only ended up buying 2 pairs of fat converse laces but it was still fun hanging out) then worked our way to parra westfield for random shopping and a visit to work to see peter. and i got a sweet carhartt satchel bag for $60

now ive got a beach trip with jo next week to look forward to!

AND I WANT GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR. I FUCKING RIP THOSE DRUMS UP.

oh and fils link got me youtubing.

no music today

this is niiiiice.

sitting in my backyard installing photoshop to my laptop. i dont start work till late tonight so i figured id used the day a little wisely (photo stuff, washing, etc). ive got my remote shooting setup all . . . setup . . . and just taking a bunch of test shots (trying to decide if s-RAW and RAW are reeeaaallllyyy that different) and showing dad how cool remote shooting is.

i think my poptarts are done. 

by the way, dont you hate it when you have one of those dreams that are almost exactly like real life . . . except with a few different details (usually you buying/finding/owning  something cool) . . . and when you wake up you're sure that it was real?

this morning i woke up convinced that i had oreos in my back pack.

and a few weeks ago i woke up and tried to find a glow in the dark casio 5600 that i swore i found under my bed.

poptart time

fuuuuuck

fuck.
*edit* crisis averted. tried the restore process again this morning and it worked first go. and there you go :)

i was really suprised when dealing with apple this morning (my ipod touch headphone jack was busted and i took it to the apple store on george st). all up i spent about 15min i the store with zero fuss. they took the faulty unit and after checking my details they gave me a brand spankin' new one. right there on the spot. nice.

problem is, the new one wont fucking work. i sync'd it and when i started scrolling through music it crashed and refuses to restore. big hassle

on a lighter note: currently blogging from my new lenovo laptop :)
so no photos tonight. more when ive fixed all the problems and uploaded photos

war war war war. i want to declare a war.

its 1:05pm and i havent eaten all day. id kill for a whopper. fuck.

kinda waiting on a phonecall and finding ways to kill time before dragging my ass to work. 

listening to bloc party. byyy the wayyyyy . . . they put on an incredible show about a week ago. im pretty sure i had goosebumps when they played ares but its hard to tell when there are at least 7 people pressed against you. mercury was my highlight of the evening. kele worked the chorus up live (recording the first few lines into a loop station and using a pedal setup to repeat and distort them). it was one of the coolest things ive seen in ages . . he even had room for a little freestyle.

kele dances like a mental patient but i love him 



did i mention they put on a laser show during flux? are you jealous?

in the lab with ab, with a pen and a pad.

got a bunch of shots developed the other day. some turned out really well. alot didnt. this is how we learn

^ first shot after spending the better part of the day shooting a camera with no film in it. fucking. stupid.
