Creativity

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

One of my goals for this year is to increase my creativity.. do more stuff. Paint. Write. Code. Create. Learn new techniques and mediums. I’m off to a somewhat slow start but I’m getting there. Yesterday I signed up for a course, my first non-uni course ever.

I’m taking Introductory Book Binding..

Time to get oldschool!

Grogg

Wednesday, April 4th, 2007

Yesterday saw the traditional Surf Club cocktail party which was good fun as usual.. ~350-400 drinks in 3 hours. Messy. Working the bar I had about 0.5 of them in between serving and pouring and cleaning and picking glasses and..and..

A lot of smiling happy faces though..

(except for when the good old bloody mary’s was on the menu)

Extreme Dishwashing

Dishwashing detergent makes chefs knives really slippery.. and slippery chefs knives make for a really shitty thing to handle without dropping.

Yes I did. It landed on my finger giving me a really nasty cut.. ouch.

A Brave New Sweden

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

I stumbled upon Roland Huntfords The New Totalitarians in the university library..

“Sweden is a relic of the Middle Ages, a State of corporations and communes, and the Swedes are medieval people living only as members of a group. It is the ideal situation for the Incarnation of Brave New World.”

“..the Scandinavian peninsula is not so much a part of Europe as an extension of Siberia”

I’ve already ordered my own copy of this masterpiece..
