Pins and needles

Today as the lecturer for my corporate communication and pr class was informing us about our exam, I thought to myself. Why am I taking this subject? Why am I doing this degree? Why aren't I doing something more creative? It's not me at all. Then I realised, I've picked B. Communication, because I wanted to challenge myself. Sure I can do more creative subject such as fine arts, but that would be too easy. Challenging myself, the way I see it, is like giving the finger to life, and saying 'hey I can do this too! I can do things I don't normally do, I'm out of my comfort soon'. It's a nice feeling. I sometimes forget public relations and marketing are the creative side of business....but base on theory and logic.

Tonight I've been studying for my media law exam..contempt, sub-judiced, disobedient contempt, freedom of speech, common law, statue law, regulations, contempt in the court of law, court reporting, revealing jury's deliberation, defamation, copyright, off the record, on the record, torts, background and so much more. It's doing my head it. I keep repeating it in my head. the definition, the key concepts. EVERYTHING! I have an 8am start tomorrow too...

On a nicer note my 8G memory card arrived in the mail and I've learned how to set the aperture on my dslr, sad I know. I've notice the photos I've taken are not the quality I want. I can do better! I'm still learning so bare with me folks. Next stop..a portable hard drive to keep all of my photos memorabilia.

I wish I took better care of my photos of friends from high school.

At the moment I'm at uni. My class and lecture have been canceled. I have gathered all my notes for Media Law, well I'm satisfied with it. This week my aim is to finish  my Public Writing assignment. I think Im going to write about one of Nicolas Taleb's ten principles. This should be interesting. Once I'm done, I'm going to finish my Media Law Essay.  

Today I was getting the windscreen on my car fix, the guy that was fixing it made it worse, so he was fixing his own mistake. Therefore free of charge. I'm really happy. Also my DSLR came in the mail, I'm just waiting for my SD memory card to show up. Hopefully photography is a way for me to gain my inspiration and motivation back, so I can start drawing again..one expensive inspiration..But either way, it's a way for me to keep memories.

Next stop a portable hard drive. 


Last night was my aunt's 26th birthday. We went out to Surfers to celebrate. Hazel Tea House, Karoke and dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe.

I want to be your favourite hello and your hardest good bye.

I can't sleep. I've just finished one of my assignment, so good. Next stop media law, public writing and notes for my exams.Tomorrow Davey is coming over and I'm making him breakfast. Pancakes for all. I like Mondays.

I hate thinking about the past. I can't control my mind. I think back to all those memories of fulfillment, excitement, nerve-wrecking, and happiness. The moment when my heart stopped and the moment when my heart was going a mile per second. I wouldn't change it for the world. But the truth is, sometimes we need to move on in order to live for the present and for the future. My heart hurts when I think about the past. Maybe it's because I miss them so much. Everything is different now.

Late at night, I would try to remember everything that had made me laughed and cry. I can't help myself. All my mind want is emotion, and attention. It's scary. It's weird, because when I talk about my mind, it feels like I'm talking about another living being. I always try to separate myself from it. My mind is conflicting, complex and discombobulate.

I am trying to order a Canon DSLR 450D from Ebay, hopefully I get it soon. I hate Paypal so much. I want to take photos of everything. I want to keep memories. I've never really realise how important visual memories are. My younger sister has a Canon DSLR 500D, just a model up from mine, but hers came with adapters. They're the same size lenses, so we'll probably share them ahahaa I also need to get a portable hard drive. So excited.

*sorry I haven't been posting much interesting things. A lot is always on my mind, and me actually seeing what I'm thinking helps me figure things out. It's therapeutic.
