Filming Young Hot Girls

Well that sounds kind of wrong, but it's true.

I got home on Monday afternoon and had a msn message waiting for me.

"Do you want to film the Discovery Girls on Wednesday night"

Does a bear shit in the woods? Of course I do!

For those that are not aware, and I assume that is all of you, Discovery is the local nightclub which caters for the 18-22 age bracket. It's great during those years, but after a while you just want to go to the pub so you can hear the person next to you.

The message was from an old mate of mine who has recently bought a 3ccd chip camera and is always on the look out to do a bit of filming. We've always talked about doing some nature footage, sunsets, storms and the like, but this seemed HEAPS better.

Unfortunately the filming is only going to pay $15 an hour, but it's better then nothing, and I'm trying to keep out the thoughts that most of the dancers we're still in Primary School when I started working after high school.

Oh well, it's all practice and experience. Who knows, i may be in Stolkholm when someone asks me if I've had any experience in filming nightclub dancers.....

"Why yes, I have done that before."

I came across this yesterday and thought it was pure gold.

Back in the swing of things

Well it's been a few weeks now and I've got back into the swing of things at work. I still sporting hair in desperate need of a cut and a ridiculously patch beard which needs a shave, but things are moving along nicely.

One of my long time good friends, Jill Cahill, has embarked on a journey to Spain. Jill is the first of us to set off on her round the world adventure, with Chani, then myself and then Kara to follow.

Jill has had a dream start, flights all on time, the fact she had no visa hasn't been an issue, the only problem is that her luggage still hasn't arrived some 4 days later.... Oh well, fingers crossed she was wearing her favourite clothes on the way there.

My intinerary needs to be completed this weekend as I'm booking and paying for the ticket on monday. I'm a little bit excited!

Myspace Videos

I've started to put together a few short snippets of film onto my own MySpace page.

Here is my favourite at the moment, Margaret River 2006

I'll aim to add one a week, so I'll have to see how much I can edit in between work and play.

Songs on the Road

As welll as writing about the trip I knocked out two songs towards the end of my trip.

Strange thing was I wanted to write a song throughout the whole trip, but even with 1/2 the Australian coast line as a muse I couldn't pen anything down, nor could I get the fingers moving on the guitar.

Of course, once things settled down and I was relaxing ideas began to start flowing, but I still didn't have anything I really wanted to write about.

Step in girls. That's right, it was the girls that finally gave me my muse and I ended up writing two songs in two nights.

It's funny how the whole east coast of Australia can't stir up enough emotion for a song, but a simple sms and someone leaving the holiday house provides more then enough fuel for the fire.

Anyway, I came across this site which gives some basics to guitar playing and the theory around music, I'll have to revisit it to polish these off, but anyone learning should have a look through the site.

Dark Matter Shows it's face

I did a fair bit of reading while I was on my trip, and mostly it consisted of flicking through New Scientist magazines.

Unfortunately that led me to having a conversation with a self apparent genius on the flight home (he informed me that a better way to distribute meals on the plane was through chaos theory rather then the rigid seat by seat row by row system).

But all other times it gave me a chance to stretch my mind and soak up the sun down at the beach in between surfs.

My New Baby - 7S superfish

I'm back with much to tell, but first let me introduce you to the newest member of my travelling family.

The best thing is that we got off to a fantastic start in Port Macquarie and that continued onto Wilson's Prom and Darby's Beach.

More to come.
