Happy New Year!

God I love New Years celebrations. I spent mine with my cousins camping in a nice part of Inskip [because I'm obsessive compulsive and go the SAME place every time. But hey, once you're onto a good thing..] doing all the things us vegan bums usually do..

Five days actually we camped. By the end I looked like some awesome wildman. The dutch genes in me have ensured that my skin has tanned a deep brown. My hair on the other hand is lighter than ever.

So the last post was apathy. How am I feeling now then? Subsequent to an excellent December, relaxing, refreshing Christmas week, and then, making a big call here, then the best new years ever.

To add to this symphony of stuff going on, I recently took it upon myself to leave Maryborough for Brisbane. I now live in a nice house with two cool chicks, we have a deck in the treetops, a yard, and I have my own spice rack. So good.

A slight drawback of this move has been the fact that there are *so* many things I have needed to purchase to get myself established. And about the same amount still to go.. This wouldn’t be such a big issue, except for the fact that I’m not a real happy shopper. I still have to purchase a desk and bookshelf. Also a guitarFUCK a train just choo’d outside.

..that’s the other thing. The white noise of the city. To me it’s not white noise. I come from a property where, if you hear a car, it’s on your property and action is required. Last night at about midnight a bunch of noisy drunk kids walked past. I reacted like a Vietnam veteran, I was bolt upright ready for action.

I’m gradually getting used to it. Helps that I have cool housemates, and the house itself is nice as.

Now I just have to get a job…. I have similiar dilemmas to you Casey..

Share trading will tide me over a bit longer, but the car has done a shitload of k’s over the summer and needs some love. Plus guitars, rent, bills, all cost money. Maybe I’ll go some sort of parttime fandango. Maybe. Who knows. Stuff work for now.

Running. Goddamn I love it. Running and eating healthy food have ensured good health through fairly challenging times in terms of stuff happening. I ran 7km yesterday, weird that I lived through it given I haven’t run this summer. I guess the serious amount of boarding I’ve been doing must have really helped.

Anyway that’s it for my rambling post. Maybe a coherent one next time
