Le vrai moleskine n'est plus

Finally sucummbed to moleskine as journal of choice 2010. Did I really have a choice? Happy journal times commence. Will work on musician sketches

Sound

This picture proves two things;
1. I found 10 pounds in my 'locked box' (no not that - you're feral) last night, I shall carry them o'er land and sea and exchange them for a pint.
2. MY NEW CAMERA takes amazing shots!! Photographer also takes credit but pretty good for a point n shoot non? Look at that cuticle. Gross

Geezer Visa

Due to that ram-raid I was party to back in '06 I am having some difficulty obtaining certain 'visa's' to certain 'countries'. One would THINK that your daring and sexy brush with the law would end up with your tousle-haired self being interviewed in handcuffs by some hot bad-cop type, culminating in him being unable to resist your pure heart, rebellious good looks and lawbreaking curves. He then assists you over the boarder, shaking his mighty head as you drive off into the sunset on the back of some gringo's motorbike without looking back, knowing that wherever you are you will always have a small piece of his heart, and he will always be thinking of you

Travel planning - progress report 1

No job? No home? No boyfriend? Surrounded by jerks? You've contracted a disease called life, and according to my ex-bandmate and most curly-haired friend Pablo there are only three known cures;

"Traveling... playing in a band or winning the lottery and pissing it away on coke or something." After some careful consideration and equations involving multiplication of luck by musical talent to the power of drugs, I'm taking the travel.

Plan as at 08/02/10:

Fly from Sydney 6th April - Bangkok
Travel around SE Asia until
1st June fly Bangkok to Athens
Travel through Europe and hit London/Dublin/Edinburgh or simillar a month later to start working.
14th December London to New York
Travel across to Los Angeles (maybe venture into Canada?)
Fly LA - Sydney at some stage (TBC).

On the train I read lonely planet Vietnam, I'm halfway through my 'Youth Mobility Visa' application (haha - youth) I've got clearance for America, I pay for my full ticket on the 15th. Can you say yeow?
