Right so, a brief post for all you (no one reads this I am sure lol) that I am still alive and running. Been getting very busy of late, drawing tons and tons and tons just to have 20 seconds worth of animation...Boy it's hard work! But it feels damn good seeing the result, even if I plan to tweak it a few times after. So yeah, lots of uni work to do, have to start writing 2 essays, and basically keep a sketchbook going *cough cough*, ahemm.
So why did I mention wallet's in my title? Well, just so happened, riding back from uni to my accommodation I happened upon a lost wallet on the floor. I naturally stopped, picked it up, looked inside for some ID, which there was (driver's license) and decided to get it in a policeman/woman's hands asap. Well, I thought, easy! I live right next to a Police station, so no problemo! WRONG! I knocked, I rang, I walked and looked, and pretty much froze my ears off just to try and get this wallet back to the person it belongs to. Well, in the end, no police was to be found, so I've decided to take it in with me for the night and try tomorrow before I leave for the weekend, if not, it'll have to wait till next week, and frankly, I'd rather this be sooner than later. That's the wallet story. Oh and here are a few pictures of it, just for giggles.
Cats...why cats?? I love them, first of all, and also to let you know I am still keeping a close eye to the Stuff On My Cat site because I've submitted a couple of pics during the summer, and I am not surprised it's not up yet, but I do hope it will go up on the site sometime, as I believe the pictures are unique enough, lol. I'll keep you all posted on that.
What else...oh yes! I finally got a job (as a casual, so no contract) at the Bristol Thistle Hotel. These, partenered with Guoman Hotels, are very reputable hotels which are dotted everywhere around the UK, and even several in London alone! So, even though hospitality is not necessarily a career I want to get into, I would mind doing this long term, if I do well as a casual, perhaps it can get me a full time job for next summer as I'm staying in the Uk, and plan to work. And not to mention, I get benefits for being a Thistle employee, such as greta discounted rates on rooms on any of their hotels, same with food and beverages, so it's all good! I am very much looking forward to my first shift which will be at the beginning of December. It's the Christmas season soon, so of course, they're started to recruit lots of casuals and contract workers for probably one of the busiest times of the year. I am very confident about this, as it'll teach me fundamental skills in a few things, and will give me enough experience for any future jobs I persue. So all in all, good news!! Oh yes, can't forget the Panto my boyfriend's in...excited to see it (twice!) and with my sister too, I miss her. OK, wrapping it up here for now, over andd out. Peace! xx
Alright then, I know it's been eons since I last posted, but since late August and mid-September I've been a very busy bee. What can you expect from moving to uni at Bristol (UWE), my mum moving back to Colombia, my sister going to uni of Surrey, and bloody getting my life sorted all over again after 3 months out of the country?
To cut through all the crap, I just want to tell you guys about my current state of mind, and that I am actually loving my animation course so far! Been a bit slow to start with at first, but now things seem to be taking shape now, with these miniature animation exercises; finally learning something specific!
I admit I've been very emotional of late, due to my father and all, and I've missed a couple of lectures because of this. My sleeping cycle is not very good at the moment, but it's been improving the last couple of days, and all my tutors are well aware of my situation and are all being very supportive and helpful. This motivates me more to keep up and do well. I have 2 essays to write as well, but I have already taken out about 6 books, which is a start!
One bored night, I also decided to check out the special features on my Lion King special edition DVD, and looking at all the behind the scenes footage and seeing how Disney animators worked together with the whole production team just made me be an animator more than ever and try and bring back this kind of animation back to the big screens. Damn, I wish I could be a part of an epic film such as The Lion King one day in the future.
On a different note, I got myself a bike a few weeks back, and it's been great for going to uni, cept m left pedal fell off today! Check it out anyway!
I would also like to add a few images of me with bubbles, just cause it goes with my blog, hehehe. I got a really cool portable electric bubble-maker for my birthday which was earlier this month (of which was a fantastic surprise birthday party my boyfriend, one of my best friends and sister organised for me!! A big ass thank you and hug to all of them and everyone who made an appearance and/or wrote in that special message book my boyfriend made for me! Love you all! xx)
Here are the pictures, enjoy!
OK, I think it's time for a brief update on things, and just to prove to you guys that I am still alive.
Last week I went to the coast for a week, and it's such an under-developed area that internet really wasn't an option. I can live without internet, no probs, but not forever. But I had a fabulous time, at my aunt's house with barely any lightbulbs, no TV (which doesn't bother me in the least), and just pure ocean, sun, breeze, family and animals. It's a perfect place to disconnect from the real world and simply think about the simple joys of life and to learn and observe nature. I did however, have a close encounter with nature one morning, too close in fact, because out of the blue for no reason a gang of bees attacked me. I've never been stung before in my life, and it just had to happen on a quiet morning that I decided to take a walk on the beach with my aunt, picking up stones (with fossils some of them!) and shells and whatever caught our eye. I got stung, not just once, but twice! Two tiny little bees went for my head and got tangled in my hair, and I of course went absolutely nuts, jumping about like a monkey on springs. I freaked out, the noise was horrible and I panicked frantically. I didn't feel the stings until after they died. One stung me on the head, and the other on my left index finger. My finger got very swollen, it was a weird and funny feeling, and I got the picture to prove it. All in all, it was not a completely horrible experience, at least I now know I am not allergic, well not to this species. That's my little bee adventure.
On another note, still at my aunt's beach house, we (my sister and I) found some crab skins in perfect condition, and decided to place them on the cat that lived there, because I am keen on entering pictures of cats with random stuff on them to a specially dedicated site called www.stuffonmycat.com (check it out! great fun and time killer! lol). So I shall let you know how that goes.
Hmmm, I guess that is all for now. It's August, so happy August, it will be my sister's birthday on the 16th, and my grandma's on the 12th, so I hope we plan something interesting to do. That's all folks, till next time!
Well, I have many starting points for this entry. Late June, whilst I was still in Madrid visiting family before going to Colombia in July, the news on the TV got me thinking about things that have happened this year so far. For me it's been an unusual year to say the least. So one night at the hotel, I sat down and simply wrote down notes of major things that have happened to me and other things that were occurring around the world. I did not jot these down in any particular order, so looking back on it now, if I want to base this entry on those notes then it's gonna be a bit messy in terms of how logical my thoughts may be expressed. Ok, here it goes...
The first thing on my list if my finishing the Foundation course in art and design...finally! Although it was only a 1 year course, it took me a year before that just to even get into a foundation course, so for me it feels more like 2 years; 2 years of working hard just to start my degree! My high school diploma of course wasn't enough, but I don't regret anything because these last 2 years, especially last year, have been extremely useful to help make the important decision of choosing the best degree course for me. I originally was intending towards Fine Art, because it seemed like the most logical thing for me to do, as I have been painting with oils since the age of 8, but then people got me thinking...where will that take me? I always knew I had a keen interest in animation, and for that you need to draw very well, which is a skill I naturally acquired, so it's decided, this September I shall begin my studies in animation at Bristol, and perhaps I'll add illustration modules in there too, just to keep my options open.
Next...and very shockingly so, my father's death in late April. What can I say except...nothing??? It was totally unexpected, it has turned my life into a weird direction, and I have to try and understand why the FUCK these things happen to good people. I was towards the end of my foundation course, on my last taught day when I heard the news from my sister on the phone (my family were living in Rome at the time) and as soon as I heard the most horrible words, my life stopped being important; nothing else mattered for that moment. It's been almost 3 months now since his death, and I still get angry and very frustrated to accept this fact, but I am trying more than ever to live my life better and to be positive. Thankfully I have a great family and a loving boyfriend for support, and friends who are always in me thoughts.
This year was also my grandfather's 80th birthday, my dad's father in fact. His birthday was on the 29th of June, so if you do the maths, it was after my dad's death, which was not much of a happy occassion this year really. Due to his death as well was the decision of my grandad to finally retire from his professional life. He launched the first internet radio for Jewish Spaniards, and he is still director, but won't work with them directly nor as often.
Speaking of birthdays, it will also be my younger sister's 18th birthday in August, which I suppose is a pretty significant number, and funnily enough in October it will be my 21st. Nuff said there.
I am currently writing from Colombia, my mum's birth country, and where my whole family from her side lives. It's normal for me to come here every summer as we have a house in the mountains we built and we even moved our pets from the USA to live here, so for me it's like the home I have never lived in. But I didn't go last summer, of 2006, due to the World Cup. So it's been 2 years since I've seen my family, my pets, my house, and it's very starnge to be here because it's different for my mum. My father's death has really turned my mum's and sister's life around completely. My mum is now planning to move back to Colombia after 25 years and my sister will be going to uni this year instead of taking the gap year in Rome, as it simply would be too complicated for her to have stayed. So yeah, my sis and I are both starting our degrees at the same time, I find that funny, in a good way of course.
Now, something that really has nothing to do with me nor my family directly, but I'd like to note Tony Blair's end as Prime Minister. It's been 10 years since he became PM and he's pretty much the only one I have ever been aware of, keeping in mind I have moved a lot myself within the past decade. It's funny to note however, that I did use to go to swimming lessons with his daughter before he even became PM, so my parents did do small talk with him every now and again. As a person, I like Mr. Blair, but I don't have much of a concrete opinion on him, just that I am against the decision to have gone to war with Bush.
This year the city of London revealed the official 2012 Olympic logo. Just one word...YUCK!
2007 also marks the 10th anniversary of Princess Diana's death, so this means my dad died 10 years after. Who would have thought? Life's strange.
Keeping with the death theme, not that it's any fun, here was a funny coincidence, not long before my dad passed away. Fortunately I saw him for the last time days before his death, because he made a last minute trip to London to do some business. Of course I always see him when he visits, and we had one of the most wonderful times together. We walked on the South Bank, had a lovely lunch, talked, laughed, and he went to see an old friend of his too, which I met as well. It was a Friday, and that weekend I was invited to a friend's 21st birthday bash, so my dad accompanied me to buy a card for her. In the shop, I spotted a cute tiny penguin toy in a bag, and I knew my sister would love it, so I insisted to my dad to buy it from my behalf, although he sais I should give to her in person when I next went to Rome (which I did do). He did buy it of course, and on the bag it said 'The Penguin of Death'. At the time, it was adorably cute, and it still is in a way, but it seems ironic now that I think about it, because that literally happened 5 days before my dad died.
On a slightly lighter note, this year has also been significant to me because I got back into contact with many old friends from the states. In fact, my parents arranged for my sister and I to visit our friends in New Jersey in April (same month my father died) for 10 days or so, as an early birthday gift to both my sister and I, since we were both turning 18 and 21, respectively. All I can say is a BIG THANK YOU to my mum and dad, and to Facebook as well.
Jumping around with things, I'd like to briefly note that apparently my paternal grandparents that have lived in Madrid for god knows how long are selling their flat and moving out for the first time I believe since they arrived in Madrid in the late 1960's. They're not moving to a new country nor city, just to a more accessible flat as they are both struggling with walking, but it's remarkable they're going through with this.
Terror hits the UK again this summer, unsurprisingly so, right when the new PM Gordon Brown took charge. Life can seem quite ugly through the lens of a news camera.
And last but certainly not least, after a wonderful day at the theme park in Madrid with my cousins, the exhausting day ended with my bag getting robbed. It was a careless mistake from my mum, because she forgot it on a bench as she got distracted watching us go on a crazy ride. The good news was that the bag was recovered with most things left untouched. However, very much expectedly they took my wallet, which had not much cash fortunately, and 4 mobile phones I was carrying. Silly of me to have brought so much, but no one expects these things when expecially my mum and I are very careful with our belongings. I cancelled my cards of course, and there was not much value in the phones, so overall it was not too bad, but highly frustrating nonetheless. All I have to say right now is that life has been quite literally a roller coaster of a ride so far this year, and I still got half of it left!
Yeah, cheesy title, but who cares. Basically it's how I feel...just roaming about, doing bits and bobs, but nothing much happening after the last of the moving stuff left the now empty flat. Of course, I am in Rome as well, where my family resided for the last year and a half. Now it's come down to the last few days of just killing time, my sister seeing her friends for the last time, and my uncle leaving for Colombia before we go to Madrid.
Madrid is somethign I have to mentally prepare for, as it's where my dad's family lives, and it's not going to be easy having a 10 year old and an 8 year old cousin clinging on 24/7 when I simply won't have the energy nor the enthusiasm. And it will also be my grandfather's 80th birthday, something that won't be much of a happy occasion this year due to the unexpected death of my father. It will also be my cousin's 11th birthday I believe. Hope that goes well. I am thinking my sister and my cousins should go to a theme park we used to go as young girls near Madrid so as to drain our cousins' energy out, lol....it's a plan!
Hmm, what now though?? I am not enjoying Rome as much, although it's a beautiful city, but it's too bloody hot and I already got bitten on my toes and legs by nasty little buggers...but that is expected. And Colombia will be no better. But who gives a poo, I adore Colombia and my family and I wouldn't change my life for what I have got there. I have not been back since the summer of 2005 which is rare for me to miss a summer there, but I am intending to change that and go in the winters instead and spend my summers in UK/Europe working and being with boyfriend and friends, hopefully starting next year.
Well, for now I have nothing left to say, except that I want the next couple of weeks to fly by, and arrive in Colombia finally. Hope you're all having a wicked summer so far. Hasta pronto people!
Right, let me start off by saying that I am actually going to miss being in London now, because there were a few things I wanted to do that I did not achieve. I admit I was quite bored at the beginning, found myself with no direction, no purpose, no real responsibilities, and hence no reason to get up in the morning and make the most of my day. I love sleeping in, don't get me wrong, but when my uncle came for the day from Madrid, as I was talking to him I realised there were actually quite a few things I could do in London, such as go to the zoo and sketch animals, which is a fanatastic idea! I originally also intended to seek a cat shelter and volunteer for a while to care of some cats, but I never got to finding the place, even though I did do some research in the internet beforehand. But anyways, the zoo was a good alternative as I could go any time, any day, and spend as much time as I desired. Well, I never really got to do this, but other things came up fortunately.
For example, an old internet buddy of mine from about 5 years ago actually took the liberty to find me on Facebook, and it just so happened he lived in London, so we decided to meet up for the first time. He's the second ever person I met from the internet (the first being my much beloved boyfriend), only very few internet friends of mine survived as I soon found out back in the day that there were loads of assholes out there. Currently most of my online socialising consists of people from school or uni, so people I knew in person beforehand. But I weighed out the pro's and con's and the chances of this dude being someone completely different from whom he claimed to be on Facebook, but I took the chance in meeting him. He turned out to be one of the coolest people, and we really clicked, which was a bonus. =) He's also a local of London and showed me an interesting area of the city which was completely unknown to me. We chatted long and I met one of his friends and we finished the afternoon off with a soggy (due to the rain) Subway sandwich. It was a great day indeed, and hopefully I'll keep in contact with him, even though I'll be in Bristol by the time I get back from Colombia.
Speaking of which, I leave early next month to Colombia for a whole 3 months, but I leave the UK next Tuesday, to Rome first to be with my mum, sister, and uncle. I've only really got 2 days left here and there was one more thing I wanted to do which was go see an IMAX film of an African lion documentary, apparently in 3D, but my hopes are low as to how possible that will be. No worries, tomorrow I am hopefully going to see a good friend of mine from my boarding school days in France, cause she just turned 18 this month and she's flying back to France on the day, so I really want to see her and say goodbye for the summer. I love her heaps and she's loads of fun, and I hope she likes the card I got her.
Oh, and let me briefly tell you people about my last weekend here. As usual, spent it with my boyfriend, whom I love to death, and we were invited to a wedding reception on Saturday evening. Well, as always, we did not shop earlier to get something decent to wear so we spent the whole afternoon looking for something for both of us...and shopping is not something we do often. It was hard looking for a skirt the right size and prize, but I did finally find it (luckilly I had a nice shirt and shoed already). And my boyfriend managed to find a nice simple shirt and a belt. His search took longer than expected, and to be honest, we were both exhausted by the end of the day, and we still had to get back and get ready and go to the reception. It was the first time my boyfriend saw me in a skirt, let alone in heels and a skirt, but it was nice for both of us, and I quite enjoyed myself, despite my stubborness for not 'boogie-ing', but I did slow dance a few times which I am sure was much appreciated by my other half. And we also ended up playing a bit of chess on a giant drawn board on the floor with giant plastic peices which were layed out in the patio area. We gave up playing after about 10 minutes, just no patience from neither of us, and plus, he ate one of my peices, the Knight (horse head). In the end it was a lovely evening, and he sang a karaoke song which he performed it very well I think (sang 'Pretty Woman') and the cake was yummylicious I must say. Stole a few pieces to take back with me too, hehe.
So yeah, pretty nice these last few days, and I am very much looking forward to my summer. I will miss my boyfriend tremendously, and I shall keep my fingers crossed that he will be able to go to Colombia for a couple of weeks in August, but if not, I shall be looking forward to seeing him when I get back to England. Changing the subject a little, I would also like to express my happiness to my younger sister Muriel, who just graduated from high school last Friday, and that I am so sorry I could not be there. I know she's alright with this, but I feel partly disappointed with myself. Te quiero Muri, and I am very proud of you!
OK, I'll stop for now, as it is 1am and we need to wake up at 7am....yuck. Hehehe...till next time!
Well, GREEN is the colour for today as I just happened to have stumbled to the London Premiere of Shrek the 3rd...how cool is that?!!!? I've never been to a Premiere before (well, I think I did go to Disney's Aladdin when I was a little girl, and I remember very little) so this is pretty much my first one, and I saw celebrities! I am not a major fan of any one really, and the ones I would have preferred to have seen were either not there or very hard to see. Of course, I did not get the best place to stand as I got there about 45 mins before the stars arrived, and it was already full of people ready with their autograph booklets, camcorders, and digicams. Knowing me, of course I came prepared...NOT...only had my handy disposable camera and actually did manage to get a couple of interesting shots of Cemeron Diaz, Justin Timberlake, Antonio Banderas and a 'real life Shrek' lol. But Mike Myers for instance was there but didn't really go to my section of the crowd, and Eddie Murphy didn't make an appearance full stop, which was slightly upsetting, but as I didn't have any expectations in the first place and only knew about the whole event from one of the London newspapers you get for free which I read earlier today, I made the most out of it. It was all a bonus for me really, and luckily it's a film series I do love.
OK, I realised I just wrote a bulky paragraph, and I am at an internet café, with a hungry tummy and wanting to watch Big Brother as it starts at 9pm today. So I think I'll leave at that for now, but I hope to post pics of the Premiere sometime in the near future! Watch this space and good night from me! ;)
Hi people, hope you're all well. Today I've been sooo bored. Woke up around mid-day, showered etc, took my time, watched telly, made and ate lunch, and watched a bit more telly. It's hard to kill time when no one's around really. So finally in the end I decided to go out for a walk, go window shopping, and I unexpectedly bought a bikini I really liked. Now I find myself in an internet cafe, again, to check on e-mails, facebook, and such. Gosh, it's hard not to have internet whenever I want it or need it.
I have a dinner tonight with Heidi, the wonderful lady with whom I lived with the previous year in London, she's a great friend of my late father. She's cooking nice home-cooked food, which I am very much looking forward to, so yeah, that's gonna be my highlight of the day. London's just looking gloomy lately, it's quite warm and humid, but cloudy.
I really really want to go to the beach or a theme park or something, get out so much energy I have inside, cause I feel it building up more and more. I have been feeling quite frustrated today as well, about my life without my dad, it's still so weird, surreal, and I keep trying not to think about it too much cause it upsets me all too easily. *sigh*.....I feel like I just wanna break something guilt-free, scream at the top of my lungs without distrubing anyone...but I ask you, where in this world can I do that in my own space and time!? I really feel so empty right now, like something's physically missing from my life, yet I am still in some form of denial, I don't want to accept this horrible reality. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
GGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There...my virtual scream...I am sure that did not hurt anyone's ears. OK, I feel slightly better now. Now I cannot wait for the weekend, to chill out with my boyfriend, he's the best. I always feel so much better when I am with him, despite the fact he always playfights with me, resulting in a very bruised up me, but it's still all fun. Well, think I'll leave it there for now, as I think I feel good enough to not talk about my state of mind, because it's improved now. I wish you all a very good Thursday. Ciaooo!
Good day, evening, morning, afternoon....depending where in the world you are and when you read this, I am sure I have greeted everyone correctly. Don't be fooled by this post's title, as it really has not been an eventful day. Yesterday was more interesting; for instance, I finally bought myself a much needed watch, as I am usually quite lost and feel 'naked' without one. How I lived without one I am not sure, (well, mobile phones have been my back-ups for telling the time). Mind, I do have a watch that I like, but it suddenly stopped working, and I had put a battery not that long ago, and it was slightly uncomfortable, so I decided to not use it and just wait for the right watch. This previous one has got quite a story to it though, funny really.
I was in boarding school in Aix-en-Provence when my then watch broke, and it just so happened my buddy had a watch to sell, and it was Swatch brand too. He claimed it was his younger sister's and she didn't want it, and he sold it to me for 30 Euros, which I suppose was a fair price. I soon started hearing romours that in fact this watch I bought was stolen from the school's lost and found, and soon enough, it was true, but that did not make me change my mind, and I stuck with it. The problem was that my biology teacher, who also happened to be the headmaster of my diploma programme, recognised the newly bought Swatch on my wrist, and asked my quite calmly (and sarcastically) 'where did you get that watch from?'...and me being the most honest being on this planet blatantly told the truth: which was that my friend stole the watch from the lost and found and sold it to me. Everyone in the classroom gasped in shock and the then girlfriend of said 'thief' was somewhat mad and confused. In the end, me being the teacher's pet and all, my teacher was not so bothered as it was sitting colelcting dust for over a year and now and was glad someone finally found it a new home. Hahaha...so there's my little anectode. But alas, this watch has finally come to its end a few months ago and I decided I want a watch that appeals to me, that I choose, and I already had my eye on a style.
To cut a long, silly story short, I bought a fancy pants wide-leathered strap of which you can choose your favourite dial on it, and I could buy others in the future and change it whenever, or buy different straps and combine, but for now I got one of each, and I am very happy of having time back on my side. And for the record, it's not Swatch.
Oh my goodness....I cannot believe I just rambled on sooooo much about a watch!!! I bet you readers out there fell asleep at some point, I don't blame you. Apart from my watch-buying, London was beautiful and sunny and warm and it was so nice just walking about and not having a purpose, no responsanility, no direction. Lately I've had too much on my mind, and sometimes not doing anything makes it worse because I inevitably start thinking about my dad, and it's not easy in public. I do find myself crying a lot at random times of the die, whether I am walking through the busy streets of London, on the top deck of a double-decker bus, or watching some random documentary with melancholic music on. Guess it's part of my way of grieving, and as long as I know I got people around me who care for me and I keep myself focused on the normal needs of life, I think I'll do just fine. Sure there will be some major downs further along the road, but I have always had my art, family, boyfriend, and friends (and in no particular order) to support me and help me move on forward. So yeah, I'm feeling pretty OK for now, and I think I'll end this post right...........----->HERE.
Good day and welcome to my wonderful world of randomness. I think I'll keep this post brief, but knowing myself, it'll end up being a sequel to the Bible, so you're free to stop at any moment for a coffee break.
I am not new to the internet or networking, however blogging is certainly something I've never considered doing, let alone keeping an actual diary, so this is kind of a breakthrough for me and I believe it'll be quite theraputic as a result. I've recently suffered a loss in my family (my dad's passing away) and it's really been messing with my mind and how I see the world. Mind, I am constantly thinking about issues in my life and on this planet, but I've never recorded my thoughts really. So doing this now I think is a great opportunity to organise my thoughts and reflect on them as time goes on...what this will give me I am not sure, but I am certain it will offer some interesting reading in the future.
Just to be totally random, I would like to note that I received a most out of the blue message on my Facebook account from someone who has the same last name as me, and trust me, my last name is as common as a purple-spotted banana in the arctic. So as far as I am concerned, the only family I know with my last name mostly live in Argentina (migrated from Ukraine early 20th century) from my father's side. This dude's family that messaged me on Facebook came from a family from Ukraine who immigrated around the same era to Canada....(did that make sense?), so yeah...who know...we might be very very very distant cousins? Only time will tell; I plan to stay in touch with person and ask my own family for names a few generations back. Watch this space for family history update!
OK, got that out of my system....how about a quick update on my Sunday...yeah? Well...it's HOTTTTT in England for some funny reason, so I went to the park with my boyfriend for a while and played catch, with a mini football. Twas fun, it's nice to be playing out once in a while. I also helped him make some spiffy new web banners for his website, which is awesome possumness...he's a playwright! =) Hmm, what else...errrr, dunno, getting a bit of a neck-ache, so I shall wrap it up for now, but I do hope to make this a regular activity...BLOGGING....woot! Ciao for now people!
