Its been a month, already?
Four weeks ago I started working as an Account Executive for MediTech Media Asia Pacific, a pharmaceuticals communications and marketing firm. In the meantime, I have shifted all my stuff over to a new place in Newtown with luketh_dragon and tehwusky and absolutely loving it! Its nice to come home to your own room, a good crew of furs and the time to make a Livejournal ( Read more... ) -
Public Transport Personalities
On Friday I was sitting on the train home to Richmond from work, and this colourful (and possibly drunk) tradie fella sits down on the three seat bench in front of Dad and I. He starts muttering to himself about how the "Universe is expanding", and that "Nazi chickens were controlling Cityrail". From what I could discern there was nothing wrong ( Read more... ) -
Welcome to the next forty years of your corporate life...
For those I haven't told out there in LJ land, on Monday I started my first meaningful job after finishing university studies last year. I'm working as an Account Executive in a medical and pharmaceuticals communications company on Sydney's North Shore. Whilst I've been hired in the client services team, my tasks include the development of ( Read more... ) -
Would you look at that girl, she's SO 2000 and late!
An experience walking through the Greenwood Plaza in North Sydney would not be complete without a group of fresh off the shelf Barbies in a phone outlet ALL purchasing the same mobile. How can a valley girl posse rock the sidewalks and designer outlets without matching accessories? Like heeellllooo! ;) -
New Year's - Events and Resolutions
Now having observed the daily life of the American people, there are certain attitudes that I'd like to incorporate into my own life back here in Australia. As an observation, the mark of a person's roundedness and achievements is dependent largely on balancing their life between play, work and contributions to the community. Whilst I have many ( Read more... ) -
Back to the daily grind...
For the past two days, I've been back in Sydney after my well documented trip to the United States and Canada. Coming back home after being immersed in a completely different culture for three months has certainly placed a perspective on the things you wish you had, things that you miss, the things you take for granted and planning for the future ( Read more... ) -
The case of the missing nail clippers
What is it about nail clippers that make them so elusive to find when you need them the most? No matter how often I try to place them somewhere I will remember, they inevitably are lost. Is it a case of simply misplacing them because they're small, or do you find that other house members like to ninja said appliances ( Read more... ) -
Ottawa, Montreal and London
Since last Monday, my travelling pal Pandez and I have been up north checking out the sights and sounds of Ottawa and Montreal. In Ottawa, we took a tour of the Royal Canadian Mint and Parliament Hill. Whoever thought that politics and coin manufacture would be so interesting ( Read more... ) -
MFF, Chicago and Sault Sainte Marie
I'd like to make a shout out to all those that I hung out with at MFF who made the con the experience of a lifetime. This was by far the biggest furcon that I have attended to date, and definitely one of the friendliest. Given that its probably going to be my last con appearance for a while, it was a fitting end to what has been a fantastic trip! ( Read more... ) -
Ten Pin Bowling and MFF
Last night I went out with nbowa to Westdale Bowling Center to knock down a few pins and get my ass handed to me by a clearly superior player. Regardless, I still thoroughly enjoyed the experience and have picked up a tip or two along the way. It would be another one of those sports that I could see myself becoming more involved in if it didn't cost 12 ( Read more... )
