Sore


Massive migraines. Gonna go home early and sleep. I was supposed to stay here at uni till 10 but screw that. I want to die.

OMFG!!


So I didn't get the job at MusicLab. But. I did get my tax return, so here comes ProTools babay!!!!

But.

I went to QCA to check out some films the music for doing for. And. The producer's friend was there. And. She was cute. Like, OMFG cute. I'm such a loser though. I can't even remember her name. I'm sure we will meet again. And then I will ask her out. Then she will tell me she has a boyfriend and I'll feel like a tool. Poop.

ZOMBIES!!!


Seriously, I'm so brain fucked. I had a dream last night where I was getting chased by zombies. I ended up getting caught in a very tight place by one and I had to gash its head off with a broken bottle. I think the fact that I had read the Zombie Survival Guide helped me in my dream, and also the fact that I knew it was a dream. I totally kicked arse. Then I woke up and had to go to uni.

All day video editing today.

All day, and then when I had my DVD rendering away, some little shits unplugged my hard drive by mistake. Because you know, a translucent IceCube drive looks like a big grey fucking MantaRay drive huh.

Bastards. So now I have left my drives overnight at uni to render, and will be doing the same thing tomorrow night so I have have these things done by Monday for the client.

Arse.

Bum.

tsukurimashou.. tsukurimashou.. sate sate nani ga dekiru ka na

God I love Azumanga Daioh. No. Really. Went out to do some recon for Supanova today. Surprises in the room. New layouts, new venues. Slight revisal of previous figures with some additions. But I think it's relatively locked in. Now to uni tomorrow for more video editing for RACQ. It's 97GB of data I don't need clogging up my drives, okay?

Get that shit off the damn drive and move on to my next two/three projects - City, a play I'm scoring/sound designing, 1,2,3,4, a doco about Patrick and his comic ness & Untitled - nice jazz-breaks type of CD with good vocalist.

tsukurimashou.. tsukurimashou.. sate sate nani ga dekiru ka na

Also, I have ingested no caffiene since Sunday. The headaches have stopped and I feel great. More energy throughout the day, sleeping betterer too.

Big Updata


Hoookay.

Well, last week I had a job trial. For a kick arse job. Truly cool and great and I would soo love it. Yes it's retail. and yes it's support (two of those things which suck, I know). But! It's a place I go to anyways, and I can do the work, and I liked it. It was cool.

But this week another guy is having a trial for it. We're both doing Honours at the Con, which is why we were offered. However. This guy is cool and he could also be doing the job too. And be good at it, so our trials were really, "Does this person fit in or piss people off or do things that could preclude him from being good at that job in terms of him fitting in to the workplace, allrighty y'all?".

I hope I get it. I would be sooooo good. And not poor. And also being able to claim trips to US and Japan off tax as well as computers and recording gear.

Alas, but.

Also, went and saw TISM with Tigris, Panic and Rhys. We ate Japanese food at "O-Yama" in the valley, I introduced Patrick to Asahi beer and it was all good. The opening act was good. They are Monster Zoku Onsomb. The second act sucked arsehole. TISM were, as per usual, top notch, even laying out the elusive country version of "Defecate On My Face". Rhys made off with a small 2" square of Humphrey Flaubert's costume. I made off with a copy of "The White Albun".

I also have lately picked up TRON. It was cool. Patrick and I are scheming for the finishing of the Strawberry*Drop DVD and it will be available at Supanova.

Additional : ADDED 1945 16/08/04
I have been instructed to hold off the ingesting of caffiene this week in an effort to see if it reduces the severity and occurence of severe headaches I experience, which are possibly blood pressure related. Fuck. I have to finish video and website design this week.

Bleargh.

Teh Drinks0r


I had a drinking weekend. That's my description. And. Here follows details.

Went and D&D at Paul's on Saturday. Spent the morning building new characters. Then had lunch. While buying lunch, I bought mead. Now there is only about a third of the bottle left. Then proceeded to watch Futurama and drink Sake. Got up on Sunday and worked in the morning. Then went to BAS. After BAS went to buy stuff for Rachel's birthday. Then went to the pub with Silverfox and Suntzu. A jug of Bundy & Coke later, I stagger to the bus stop with Nezumi Neko. Catch the bus to Stones Corner. Arrive at Coffee club for Rachel's birthday thingy. Drink Corona. Get a lift home with Owen and Gaye.

Sleep.

Uni today and also interview. I have a work trial and, if all goes well (PRAY OR DO WHATEVER THE HELL IT IS YOU DO!!!!), I shall have a job. A good one that will basically make my existence a tax dodge.

Oh please God let me impress them and get the job!!!
