This morning I woke up and my head was FULL of dreams that I had had the night before. It felt like i'd just sat through a 6 hour long movie and was able to recall almost every moment.
Now, I remember very little, except that it involved a swimming pool, and performing aquatic stunts..
I think last night was the first night in ages that I hadn't been just a little bit cold in bed..so I guess I had put my body into the perfect dream mode, and my brain had a little bit of a party..
Anyway once I'd recovered from that (it took 3 snoozes to actually remember I had to be at the craft market in an hour).. I realized I was going to be late because I hadn't factored in setup time.
Anyway, why am I posting today? I forgot to post in June. I just wanted to have a few random ramblings, and I'll do it in my favoured format - precise and informative, LISTS.
Things I'm looking forward to:
-Seeing my sister in melbourne soon
-The new harry potter movie
Things that have been annoying me a bit:
- People who say 'to be honest..' all the time, even when they would have no reason to lie about the subject matter, say for instance, their opinion on the weather forecast, or, giving directions..
- When the supermarket sells out of the organic cheddar cheese and they dont replace it for weeks
- When birds poop on my windscreen cos i've run out of water in the squirtee thing and cant be bothered replacing it
- people who say 'we must catch up', but have no intention of doing so
- people who update their facebook status constantly with unnessarily boring status' - ie 'so and so is just home from work'
- The window washers at avondale market traffic lights on sundays, who abuse people who actually dont want their windows washed and tell them so..
- hollywood films and their obsession with satisfying every need of the audience until they make no impact whatsoever.
- library fines. fullstop. cant they email you BEFORE they're late?
Things I think could make Auckland a better place:
- If you could buy sandwhiches with better filling combinations.
- If you could get somewhere on time by public transport, even faster than by a car.
-If there were less things being imported cheaply and more things made to last, locally.
- If pt chev countdown rennovations were finally finished, and it opened past 8pm.
-If my sister came back to auckland to live.
-If people with LOTS of fruit on the trees in their front yard would put it in a box by the gate and let passers by help themselves.
Things I'm thinking about doing soon:
-Developing a theatre show involving puppetry, video and music
-Sending out my AFL catalogues to shops and galleries
-Doing an EP with toad and some recording projects of my own
-Buying a sewing machine
-Buying a printing press
-Developing ideas for a community art space/studio in high st (more on this soon.)
- Buying a SCOOTER!
-buying some gumboots (anyone know where to get cheap ones?)
Things I would like to happen soon:
-the winter to prematurely end
-to get some commercial music jobs
Things I have learnt in the last month:
-how to play jewsharp.
- how to use elastic audio in pro tools.
