though if you spread out all the new things i have tried this year, it probably would equal out to one new thing a week, i am too busy at this point in my life to be actively seeking new things each and every week. i’ll try it again later maybe??
People doing this are also doing these things:

I do think this is a good habit to get into. I have been a bit lax in terms of updates- but essentially it’s good to stretch your rubber band out a bit from time to time.
Recently I’ve been seeing a lot more exhibits of photography and artwork, going to fairs and galleries and so forth. [Damn I missed the Bollywood dancing yesterday in Darling Harbour].
There is a danger though. Which is that if you find some projects to commit to- I do think it’s a better idea to get adequate or at least master a few things before you entertain other diversions.
This goal is a good one to commit to for a while because you learn to be curious outside of yourself- like you exhaust the list of things you’d normally want to try but don’t- then you start looking and this is the most worthwhile outcome. It’s curiousity re-awakening.

bloody FLU! it’s killing me- the closest I’ve come to this recently is studying some aboriginial artwork- I’m looking for a good Aboriginal Artwork of a kangaroo to tattoo on my thigh.
I plan to go to American soon (Ogdensburg to be precise) it should be a novelty there.
Soon as I get better I’ll be back in the swing of things.

BUT last week i had some portfolio shots taken for extra work. So I pulled my finger halfway out and it’s already Friday and I haven’t been able to successfully resize them to upload to my website to get some work yet. Sooooooooooooooooo, better get on the bike with this. This should probably go under `confront my fears’ goal because looking at pics of myself fills me with horror and I’ve always hated being photographed- and this guy wants to do film extra work??! YAH! If I made any sense I might rule the world and we wouldn’t want THAT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I got an agent for extra work- now to consumate my goal to do a bit part extra piece in a Bollywood film being shot in Sydney! Or something else pretty stupid actually- hahahahahaha!

Okay so I’ve been to busy to post, but I did stuff, or is it 3 weeks, but hell I fell in love which I forbade myself from doing again, got slightly better at snail mail, have been looking for an agent and so I might actually mark this little blighter off the list, nah I’ll leave it stew a while longer. I think the moral of this story is that if you roll a little snowball down a hill the little fuqr will get bigger. I would recommend this without hesitation….. ®
Rollerblading…
Okay rollerblading was on my goal list but I had a proper lesson and signed up for a course and I’m going again today which means tomorrow I’ll be walking like I was looking for true love in jail or something (oh oh I’ve got kung fu right after this, isn’t going to be pretty).
well anyway it’s better for the soul than the gym I was going to where they had these horrible people barking out at everyone over really cheesy music (it was like Dante’s inferno- yuk!) not that I did those classes but having to listen to them was horrifying. Gawd I have to find a gym which hasn’t changed since about 1955 I think.
But anyway rollerblading is better because it seriously works your legs, ass & lower stomach but regardless of all that- when you get a little speed up, you get a nice adrenalin stone from it. The Sydney Harbour Bridge is also an incredibly beautiful place to blade over.
‘Nuff said.

whoopee I managed to avoid this entirely while dealing with the vicissitudes of life. Well I did sign up at consumating.com which friends recommended and it sucked buckets so I’ll delete that. Also planned more than I was able to do.
Didn’t get to check out the new graveyard I discovered either. Bother!

i printed a page on an old fashioned printing press! it was so fun, but really time consuming and tough to find all the letters, make sure they were properly spaced and in the correct order/orientation, and not over-ink the plate. after many tries, i got it to work and it looked fine. now i have the rest of the semester to make a book! yay!
I done new stuff but I can’t describe it because it was very very hot and Lucy (my motorbike) and I did over 100miles around the city and my hands are still tingling and my ass hurts and I got real stupid tan lines which stop where my gloves start so I look like a fool. So I did it and I’ll stop talking already.
