Kick off your army boots, pour yourself the driest martini known to Korea (don't forget the WWII surplus olive), and join me in the Swamp.

Just a list of what I've been listening to lately... (thrilling stuff, I know)
Hurt - Christina Aguilera
Never Saw Blue - Hayley Westenra (I love her voice - and she sings in the same key as me - bonus!)
Going North - Missy Higgins (from her new album On a Clear Night)
From Paris to Berlin - Infernal
It Doesn't Matter Anymore - Serena Ryder (a cover of the old Buddy Holly song - Serena was on RocKwiz a few weeks ago, so I searched on iTunes for more of her stuff)

I soooooooooooooooooo need a hug at the moment. I don't know why, it's just one of those things you know you need when you need it. Damn it, what I really need is a friend. C'est la vie.

Time of Your Life (Good Riddance) ~ Green Day

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road,
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go.
So make the best of this task, and don't ask why;
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictable, and in the end it's right,
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind,
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time.
Tattoos and memories and dead skin on trial,
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
It's something unpredictable, and in the end it's right,
I hope you had the time of your life.


I've always liked this song - one of those songs that hits you right where you live - regardless of what's going on in your life...

I was driving home tonight, and thought it was about time I resurrected the blog - got caught up in the whole MySpace thing, and got sidetracked. Yeah, for 3 months.

In that time, a lot has happened... I've become a Region Leader, been to Jamboree - followed by a week or so holiday in Perth... well, it doesn't sound like a lot, but it was pretty full-on for a while there. Trust me.

So now things are back to normal - to an extent. My little hiatus in Perth left me wanting more, and so I have made the decision to work towards moving to Perth next year, even if just for a few months. *Note: I said to "work towards". That is my disclaimer, so no-one can come back at me next year and say yada yada...* It's a big thing, but recent events have made me reconsider what exactly I want to do.

Wow, that was a bit deep, wasn't it?

And to the numnuts who nicked my iPod at the ANZ Bank last Thursday - hahaha. I don't know if you've been caught yet, but stealing something while you're at the counter making an account enquiry, with security cameras in abundance - and your name up on the screen? Evidence that Darwin was right perhaps?
