#Twibattical

You are prob­a­bly aware that last sun­day I com­mited to spend­ing the week away from twit­ter and face­book [#twibat­ti­cal], to see what life would be like with­out these social media tools.
The week was Pure Awe­some­Sauce.
It was lib­er­at­ing, free. I was untied from most com­mu­ni­ca­tion. No @ replies, no-one “lik­ing” my sta­tuses every few min­utes. At one […]

The art of a bad haircut

There are tell-tale signs that you are about to receive a bad hair­cut. I have com­piled the fol­low­ing list from first-hand experience:

“How would you like your hair cut today, sir?”. Is the one-word sen­tence “shorter” an accept­able answer? I would imag­ine most men would have no idea how to describe their desired hair style [or […]

Myers-Briggs

So tonight I com­pleted one of those myers-briggs per­son­al­ity tests. It was a quiz on face­book, so I’m not cer­tain of its valid­ity. But I was quite impressed with the results though, This describes my per­son­al­ity pretty well.
ENFJ (Extra­ver­sion, iNtu­ition, Feel­ing, Judg­ment)
You are warm, empa­thetic, respon­sive, and respon­si­ble. You are highly attuned to the emotions, […]

OCD compatibility and how it affects you

I have a small prob­lem: mild OCD. Things must be clean, organ­ised and sys­temised. There is a place for every­thing, and every­thing must go in its place. [my house­mates might dis­agree with me, but i stand by it]
My work­mates com­plain that I move files, or worse, delete them. I dont deny it, often my response is […]

Glass and a half of fun

Colour 2009 in syd­ney fin­ished yes­ter­day! 2 con­fer­ences, over 15000 women. amaz­ing. Serving/working  the week in the city was amaz­ing. As a young boy one of the things I dreamed about was catch­ing a train into the city to go to work every day, and that hap­pened over the last week! I would say it […]

9 goals for 09

Okay, it’s that time of the year again: new years res­o­lu­tions. Fool­ish and ambi­tious goals you set your­self in jan­u­ary, only to find out by mid feb­ru­ary that these were merely empty promises and unre­al­is­tic expec­ta­tions you placed upon your­self.
Seri­ously though, I’ve tried to make mine as real­is­tic as pos­si­ble, I really want to […]

Happy New Year!

Your thoughts, madam.

We are well and truly in the swing of things now, we are a few weeks into semes­ter and have assess­ments due already. In fact I sub­mit­ted the first one yes­ter­day.
One assess­ment com­ing up is our 3 minute short film, for our loca­tion cam­era class. The theme is “mercy and com­pas­sion”, although this is just […]

Where have you been, mister?

If you were to ask me that one ques­tion, i would sim­ply answer “around”. which is pre­cisely where i have been. 
Hid­ing at the col­lege library doing assess­ments, mov­ing house, mid-semester break. It has been a busy and fun time.
Col­lege is doing well, we have roughly 27 assess­ments due in roughly 27 days, but I was smart and […]

Christ is revealed

Chains be Bro­ken,
Lives be Healed,
Eyes be opened,
Christ is revealed”
That would have to be one of my favorite poems at the moment. Writ­ten by Brooke Fraser of course. The rest of the song talks about wait­ing on the lord — “As surely as the sun will rise you’ll come to us” is one of the ways […]
