well bubble was a giant fizzer.
boot and brooke came. unkie dave bailed to lou's early.
the person i was meeting turned up and then "no-sold" me.
totally different in front of my friends as to how she'd been previous.
i didnt like what id seen. we're talking several deal breakers.
but get this.
after no-selling me for most of the night
anyways. so its easter.
Happy Easter everyone.
this year i've opted out of the family do.
to be quite frank, i just can't really be bothered with aspects of my family.
yes that sounds harsh but hey. its true.
another thing. i went to church this morning for the first time since christmas.
i feel terrible for becoming one of those people.
however prior to this morning. i was thinking that i'd been in a crisis of faith.
by this i mean in my mind i had been challenging all that had been taught (and expected) of me for the past 21 years. (theres that number again.)
however going to church this morning i realised that maybe it wasnt a crisis of faith that i'd been having. maybe it was something else. im not sure what that something else is just yet but i will be on the look out to find out what it is.
anyways im going to anglers soon.
correction: was going to anglers. amandas chucking her guts up and rhis now only going over to watch movies. homework and COD5 or the footy beckons....
over. and. out.

we've come a long long way together...
...through the hard times and the good.
lol.
for those wondering what the hell im talking about,
they were fat boy slim lyrics. from the 90's.
who would have thought that 10 years after hearing
that song for the first time, id be seeing it performed
live @ Good Vibrations Festival (for those who dont know,
GVF is an annual music fest in melbourne)
GVF was awesome on the weekend. sam sparro, the
presets & fat boy slim rocked the stage. to put it into words:
right about now,
i was seeing black and gold,
locked up with my people,
and knowing what is what.
lol thats a little play on the lyrics of the three artists :p
but seriously it was awesome. best day out in a while.
anyways ive been heaps busy lately btw the two jobs.
hence the absence of recent posts. but really all is well.
year of jimmy mk II is still going well. not much craziness
to report just yetbut hey ive decided im going on holiday
to New Zealand with contiki next year. might be taking
some of the kmart boys with me. who knows really?
im happy to travel on my own. it would FORCE me to
meet new ppl. which i want to do. =D
im at work anyways so possibly more to come soon...

No is the new Yes...
ok. first up.
happy new year everyone. hopefully you all had a great festive season.
last night i caught up with a very good friend of mine.
other friends of mine had suggested it was a date,
when i knew it was just catching up.
it had been a stretch of about 4 months (we worked this out last night)
dinner, movies and chatting was the agreed format.
to be honest. the burger was awesome. summer sunset
from grill'd at highpoint was great.
we were chatting and catching up on new happenings in our lives.
then came time for the movie.
My choice apparently because it was my birthday hangout.
Out of Ben Button, Twilight, Yes Man; we went with Yes Man,
expecting a movie that was funny with no real plot line.
just like we had months earlier when we went to see Pineapple Express.
Turns out we were wrong. and im glad we were.
Jim Carrey plays a guy that says no to everything when he attends
a seminar of saying yes to everything.
Turns out everything goes well for him....
...because he says yes to everything.
ive decided that this year i will be more open to things outside my usual reality
ive decided that this year things will go slower than they usually go for me...
ive decided that this year will be the Year of Jimmy Mk II since Mk I started so late.
for those that dont know Year of Jimmy Mk I was a creation of ours
to suggest that last year was going to be my year.
I decided we'll extend it and take every opportunity that comes my way.
even maybe create some.
over. and. out.

well. so. it. goes. 2008
well so it goes. 2008 is almost over.
just over 24 hrs to go.
overall best year of uni out of the 3 so far in terms of results. =D'
and not only results. i met so many awesome people that i will know for the rest of my life its awesome.
yes i said another two in last years blog (on myspace). but its another two from now.
i'm taking a break from a full load and taking on part time study.
then ill be a qualified educator.
work. or should i say works.
lol this year saw me join the awesome as staff at CRC Melton.
i fit it in with uni, and kmart and its the best thing i've ever done.
met a totally different side to people that i'd known, and met a whole lot of people.
who are awesome. =D
kids still freak out when they see me behind the counter at kmart though.
christmas at kmart was busy but the customers seemed nicer this year.
maybe a $1000 cash infusion helped that. thanks kev.
sound & vis is awesome by the way.
cricket. well due to work haven't been playing as much as i'd like to have.
but while the runs aren't coming, wickets have been falling.
was named best clubman season 07/08.
hardly there due to work even though im secretary.
that domestic holiday id planned last year. still hasnt happened.
and doesnt look like happening any time soon.
believe it or not. got out of that middle place.
but now im back in it. and much deeper than last time.
but dont worry im not doing anything drastic.
my 21st happened. and was awesome.
but once again i fucked up speeches.
like the acceptance of best clubman.
so i'll make it right now.
to my parents, you guys are awesome. thanks for the party.
to the uni guys and gals, you have made this last year so much more fun,
and have no idea what it means to me to have known you all.
to the cricket boys, sorry i haven't had a lot of time on the field this year, but when i have
ive made a difference. see cam, it doesn't hurt to bowl me.
to the kmart krew....you guys are the bomb. i'm extremely lucky to have worked with such a great group of people
looking towards a house and holiday now.
i've definitely got the holiday paid for....i think.
not that its booked yet. or know when i'm gonna fit it in.
now to start saving for the house.
will definitely have to make some sacrifices this year.
as for a new years resolution, i have two:
the second stems from when i was the "biggest" guy at a friends pool party.
i'm not the biggest guy in the world. but still not exactly happy with myself.
to be honest, the regime will start tomorrow.
over. and. out.
