This is still driving me crazy. It wont publish more that about 10 words at a time...oh wells. Not much to update, things are pretty much same old same old. Had a little disagreement with Nikita yesterday though. She invited a lead guitarist to our rehersal, which would have been great, if he weren't 34, ugly, dorky, quiet, and really untalented. His name is Darren and he's from Tullamarine. Honestly, this girl has big aspirations and yet she does very stupid things like that. When i told her what i thought she just shook her head as though i was being really shallow....of course i was being shallow, its the music industry for gods sake. Anyways, shes given me a week to find someone better (shouldn't be hard), so thats what i've been doing all weekend.

Played hockey yesterday, lost again, how unusual. Daves birthday dinner tonight, will be good to see him.

ooh phone gtg....

Stupid stupid internet...resorting to pasting a paragraph at a time....

Umm...Nikita and I spent most of today writing songs which has put me in a really good mood. It was such a successful day and i'm really excited about what we achieved. Its taken a while but finally i'm getting somewhere. I'm sitting here trying to work out how to upload them (our songs) onto the net but i've concluded i'm the most technically incompetant individual in the universe...which i guess makes me pretty hopeless. I'll just keep pressing buttons until something happens.

I just realised exactly how long its been since i've written on here. I missed the whole episode of matts death and the time we spent in kinglake with jasey. I missed the trip to rosebud, the mark saga, the shaun dramas which are so funny that i have to write them when i get the energy, cam and zoe coming home, hanna's first few weeks here, breece and the spa party, the sandy trivia night, ariel's first gig, surfing adventures, getting lost in wombat state forest, the trip to baccus, shamus, tennis with rhett, mazeh, blair, ali,...wow, so much...i guess things fly by. Without doubt the most serious and memorable was the discovery of matts body and the funeral. Jaseys eulogy was beautiful and heart wrenching, his mother obituary still makes me cry. I guess everyone came together there for a while in an amazing display of strength and love. I've never been prouder of a friend than i was of the way jason behaved. He got the body back, organised the funeral, organised post mortoms and letters to everyone, stayed every night with the family and cooked and cleaned for them. He spoke with the police when they couldn't and was there for everyone 24 hours a day. He never once thought of himself, just downed a couple of valium and kept holding them up. He really was inspiring.

Hmm so little to say at the moment. I'm tired. I think i'll go back to pressing random buttons and my amature website design....sounds good to me...

bye for now xx




I'm back playing hockey, or at least attempting to, running heaps and doing plenty of exercise. Still hasn't reversed the effects of a big summer of doing little and drinking much but its getting there :) Dave's got me training for triathlons (no, i can;t believe it either) and while it means training at 6 o'clock in the morning, i actually enjoy it.

Saw Ben Harper and Jack Johnson on Friday and it was awesome!! We has such a good view and the atmosphere was amazing. Its hard to describe, but it was easily the best concert i've been to. I was pumped for the rest of the weekend. Saw chris there too - weirdness...just thought i'd mention that.

Oh my god i forgot to say - I got a puppy last week and she's the most beautiful thing in the world. She a little german shepard with floppy ears and big feet. Shes a real unco and doesn't quite understand how to play but i love her anyway. I can't believe we got a german shepard in a rental property...oh wells, it was spontaneous and not at all thought through...good excuse....

wrote this last week, wouldn't paste:

LOOK - AN UPDATE!! Oh my god she finally got around to it!! When its been so long its hard to know quite where to begin. So much has been happening (hence me not writing nearly as much as i should).

Uni is crazy but suprisingly fun really. Firstly the social side is just great, met heaps of new people in my new classes and have been going out waaayy too much. As for subjects, they're ok i guess. Crim is facinating and creative writing is a joke really. So i guess thats all going ok.

Work leaves much to be desired, but its a job and it...actually no, it doesn't pay the bills. But you know, it makes me feel kinda like i'm doing something...and theres free coffee so i cant complain too much. My boss is the coffee nazi, in fact he's just a nazi in general and has fired me at least three times. We have a great relationship.

how come that is the only thing that will post - my insults about this stupid page thingi.

blogger is stupid
