-Updated 31 Aug 2005-



So here I am again. It's been a while hasn't it. My alto sax initially got a lot of use. Funny isn't it, how a fulltime job takes away all your spare time. Haven't had any time to poi too, apart from Jugglejam on Mondays and the monthly Moonfests. And even then, it somehow seems I tend to play with the stockwhip instead of poi shrug



Another lens has been added to the stable too. A Canon EF-S 10-22 3.5-4.5.. nice and wiide. But it all boils back down to that time issue. Despite having the new lens, I seem to find I'm out taking less pictures.. the folio hasn't been updated in a while, and I'm starting to get the horrible feeling I'm stagnating. Must. Get out of this rut.



If you're my muse and reading this, inspiration needed now. hug



-Edited 14 Dec 2005-



I liken this to opening the fridge to find that jar of misc what's it, several months expired ubblol. Hey how's it going? wave



So what's new! Well.. poi's getting a bit better for one thing. Nice how after poi-ing for a while, you stop hitting yourself senseless. In fact, one might argue how after a certain point, each hit puts more sense into you.. wink Haven't gone skating or rockclimbing in a bit, but that's ok- life's full of wonderful distractions, and really, you can only do a couple at a time.



University's just wrapped up! Yep. A degree in art & visual culture, television & digital media.. Just waiting for a piece of paper at the moment (yay!). And trying to sort out how Australia will let me live here forever and ever biggrin. Have I mentioned how wonderful it is, you so ought to visit *nudge* wink Also been getting out the with photography and stuff- a couple of projects to follow up on, blue skies and puffy clouds as far as I can see.



Updates updates. [insert geek] I've updated my camera gear too.. my 20D, 17-85 4-5.6 IS and 580EX now have a 70-200 2.8L IS to play with.. soon too, riding on getting a particular gig, either a 350D and a 24-105 f4 IS, or another 20D.. -grin- [/end geek]



[edit 14/12/05: Gig didn't go through, and ended up performing at it instead of shooting it ubblol Life has a funny way of messing you about doesn't it.. so no 2nd body for me just yet, or nice 24-105 f4 IS redface]



Been taking lots of photos lately. I think there's something intrinsically beautiful in capturing moments- you know how you look at a photo and it brings you back to where you were that day, who you were with, how the air smelt even.. Maybe one day I'll get to exhibit ubblove.. but yeah.. lots of work to be done meantime.



Hmmmm.. yes the world's beautiful today. It's good to have new toys, new moves, new direction.. old friends hug.. a best friend hug2, and enough distractions not to get bored for too long.



Btw.. favourite words haven't changed.. ubbrollsmile And mm.. I'm still not too close to balletic, and dulcet..



Hmm.. la la la laaa squawk.. footinmouth



[edit 14/12/05: I now have a beautiful alto saxophone- the best use of which I have thus far found, is to attract ducks and other misc waterfowl]



Yep, how about we say still aspiring. biggrin



Hope all's well with everyone- don't be strangers now! hug biggrin

I've been exploring this site a bit lately, and have decided everyone seems like a nice bunch- thought it's about time I said hello. Ryan, 24, born in Singapore, but Brisbane Australia has been home to me for the past 3 years.



I love photography, playing the guitar (if one took a picture of me with my guitar, it looks like I'm playing it- does that count?), getting from point A to B on my trusty mountain bike, inline skating and hockey, occasionally rockclimbing, and just being in good company. I'd also like to add poiing to the list when I stop hitting myself senseless.



Irrelevantly, my two favourite words (I've got heaps if anyone's interested) are 'balletic' and 'dulcet'. 'Balletic', unfortunately, isn't a word I'd use to describe anything I can do, and 'dulcet' is a word I haven't dreamt of aspiring towards yet.



Enough for now, don't be strangers! biggrin

*peels eyes away with much difficulty*



No,no,no....its for a costume hun....not for normal wear. Also want the PVC one aswell, for a costume. biggrin

awwwwwwwww smile I love Snoopy and Woodstock biggrin

I've just got 2 cheapish corsets, which aren't quite as corsety anymore because I'm not quite as fat anymore. Time for a new one really.

*also inserts big Marge Simpson growl* (I'm good at those!)

oh, the one would've been about 10 pounds! it's more of an underwear-type thing though. The other one was about 20, but that was used on ebay. Will have to look up the crossdressers at some point smile

Mmmmm... nice corsets. I wish I could afford a new one, but unfortunately that's not going to happen for a while. frown

As for whips / floggers... I still really like the ones I make. I just need to get burningman out of the way, and I can properly get them out of the prototype stage and into the selling stage.
Maybe then I'll be able to afford a new corset! smile

The things that get you a promotion eh? wink

Ry- floggers, not those kind of whips... although I'd love to learn how to make those!
I don't want to put photos up on a public website, until they're past the prototype stage, but I might be able to email you a sneak preview. smile

I was going to make a statement ending with the words "the family pet", but I think that may be testing the moderators a tad teeny bit too much.. ubblol ubbangel

So I'll just be ubbangel and go "so why do they make this eek face? confused

Glad you approve of the shot.. I completely missed the giant demon like thing who crept out of the fire and brimstone to have a wee into the creek, but the shot's still alright.. that'll teach me to be a bit faster on the trigger..

Pat: *ties you to a chair and makes you listen to "We Are The World"* ubblol

Thanks. I thought it was prettier than usual that day.. didn't think the camera would get it without a tripod, and being a small point and shoot, there aren't much manual controls on it.. but mm. Turned out ok hey? biggrin

Mand: Thanks, glad you like it! smile

Antics? What antics? *bends over to pick up misc objects on the floor* ubblol ubbangel

----

In other general updates.. went to Pancho's in Bulimba with Pip for pizza yesterday. Had it take-out and went somewhere nice in East Brisbane overlooking the city to have it.

A couple of gourmet pizzas- a lamb no bull pizza (Pip what's in it?) and a seafood one (salmon, butterflied prawns, calamari, mussels or oysters- not a fan of the oysters too much, but it probably wasn't..). Anyhoo. Got back with some leftovers, and when they were opened up, the seafood one was covered in ants! Damn six legged monsters.. and I still had three large prawns left.. yay for the outdoors grrr.

Anyway. Joke of the day, as told to me yesterday by Attila the courier who delivers packages to my office:

Did you hear about the oyster at the nightclub? cool

He pulled a mussell. rolleyes
