So last night I stayed up till midnight at Chermside EB Games, for the launch of Mass Effect 3! The wait was pretty tough as I had little sleep the previous night, but it was well worth it to hang out with complete strangers and wait for a game I have been dying to play for months and months now. We sat around discussing the...

I am so excited for the SG Ball in Brisbane's Mana Bar! For those of you who don't know, is a video game based bar in Brisbane, Australia. It's really funky, has a unique range of video game inspired cocktails and drinks, and some pretty awesome people run it as well. For the Ball, I need a costume, and I was thinking of rocking out...

*It should be noted that I honesty didn't see too many bad films this year unless I was invited by friends or won free tickets for reviewing. So yes, there are some big names missing like The Zoo Keeper, Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon, and Just Go With It. So I have limited my list to just 5, so here it is.

Dishonorable Mentions...

Egh! Totally agree! What a waste of time! Stupid ending, unsustained story line. and for some reason both of my female housemates LOVE that movie... I don't get it? Only think I liked in it is the hot chicks made to look like real life computer animations, the soundtrack and the animations in general.

@Terome, it's even worse trying to make a movie with this stuff happening in the background. One of my film making counterparts LOVED Sucker Punch is ordering all sorts of costumes and guns from the movie and is dressing up girls in them and doing these fan made films in the backyard and just going on about how amazing and awesome it was. It just drags the industry down. Like when I come to my keyboard, and start writing female characters who I imagine as strong willed and empowering in the back of my mind now I am like... Oh Jesus... am I writing the next Sucker Punch?

So today is the day... First a funeral... then a flight... then a meeting... then another flight... then a holiday.

Last night I was stressing what to pack for my trip to Bali, worried that I would forget something or leave something. Yet the more I thought about it, and the more my travel buddy, Titeh, told me not to worry, the more excited I...

Today is a sad day.

I recently found out that one of my close friends killed himself a few nights ago.

He was not a perfect human being by any stench of the imagination. He was loud, rude, annoying, ignorant, and probably one of the most disturbing people I have ever known. He was the guy who made dead hooker jokes, loved gags about people...

Sorry for your loss. He sounded like quite the complicated person but at least he knew what he believed in most people go there whole lives without a clue bout whats really important. Chin up kid frown
ihsv1683:
he sounds like a great bloke......having many complicated facets but a public face.
It is his legacy of wanting to change the world for the better he should be his legacy and he will live forever in your memory......smile

Sometimes life can throw you an interesting curveball... So much so that I think I am entering the opening of a Woody Allen film...

Only after hours of writing and chatting online, I am preparing myself mentally to travel across the sea with a complete stranger. One part of my brain can only think in romanticism and fun, while the other part is screaming at...
