Life as and when...

The answer is blowin' in the wind.....

Scared face

A lot of things scare me... the thought of suffocating... spiders..... failing at anything...... spiders.... haha. But movies, nah.. I'm over that. I can watch a scary movie and I can be pretty on edge whilst watching, but afterwards I go about my day (coz its just a movie). Well, that all changed... when I watched The Conjuring. If you haven't watched it yet - please don't. If you think the Exorcist was bad, it had nothing on this. I closed my eyes in parts, I swore, it waaaaas ridiculous. I got home last night and watched 3 episodes of The goodwin games just so that I could laugh at some chilled, comical tv just to rest my mind. The fact that it was based on a true story kind of shakes up the nerves a little. I don't for a second believe that any of the shit I saw was going to happen to me when I got home, but when I say my mind was fkd, I was considering leaving the lamp light on. Hahaaha. So yeah for the first time I can say, yes I regret it... it was beyond my level of fear facing challenges.... Horror's are for he birds. I'm out. Comedies for the win............ oh and rom coms, coz fairytale love stories of "how it's meant to be" is at the very least tolerated to lose sleep over in my books. :)

In garages round SA.. insane

Jeeeeeeeeeez I love it when SA muso's are getting it right, makes me go cold just listening.... so excited for where it's going... it just makes the people who are keen to view guys like this all the easier if they're coming out of our country. SO much excitement!!

Jordi from Durbs won the "Get out of the garage contest" created by converse....

midweek.... so far so good

S2000 update

Car went in for a service, all good... small service - so nothing major was done, however I was told that my clutch was about to say cheers to the world.. I decided that I'd know when this was true, and so I left it and waited until I knew what a slipping clutch actually felt like. (Not that I knew at first what it was) But after a vtec mission on the freeway towards to the track one day, I realised on my way home that something wasn't right. I had to nurse the accelerator into the revs and change low as well. If i put full throttle, revs were overshooting and the car wasn't even going anywhere. As I said - I had no idea what was wrong.. but took it into Honda and Gavin said that I had officially used the last legs of my clutch. So it was tickets.. It was fine for driving around town, but I may as well been driving an 1100 uno, because I couldn't even take the gap to overtake... everything had to be done quite carefully. Being careful in an S2000 is like ordering a salad at MacDonalds - It just doesn't make sense. Anyway had to wait to book it in with Gavin to replace the clutch. I was lucky enough to already have a clutch in my possession, as Andre had bought one for the s2k when it was his (knowing it didn't have forever left on it) So that's cool. All I was in for was labour to fit it. Anyway, booked it in, came back next day, much lighter than last clutch which was insanely hard. The sensitivity of the clutch control had me laughing at myself................ I stalled 3 times on the way home, hahahaaa, By the next day I was cool. Just wasn't used to feeling it properly compared to last one. All working and amazing... yellow beast back to normal *happy face*

I mentioned before that there are some fixes and add ons etc that I need to have done. That's next..... so a glimpse of that.......................... it arrived in the post 2 weeks ago, super excited for this guy to be on, it finishes off the look I wanted my car to have perfectly. It will be painted New indy yellow to match the rest of the car of course, With the bumper respray and other goings on... it's gonna look pretty neat soon. 

Keen....

Anticipated end result will have it looking like this................................................

Wishing's for the sheep

Green Day

Sick face

Caring and kindness are 2 traits that most people boast having... It's not a show pony quality, it's supposed to come naturally...

Cake day

Great love, Great movie, Great Gatsby

Leave...start the car...new song premiers on 5...

I've been ignoring this big lump in my throat
I shouldn't be crying
Tears were for the weaker days, I'm stronger now
Or so I say, but something's missing

Whatever it is, it feels like it's laughing at me
Through the glass of a two-sided mirror
Whatever it is, it's just laughing at me
And I just wanna scream

What now, I just can't figure it out
What now, I guess
I'll just wait it out, wait it out
What now, what now

I found the one, he changed my life
But was it me that changed
And he just happened to come at the right time
I'm supposed to be in love but I'm numb again

Whatever it is, it feels like it's laughing at me
Through the glass of a two-sided mirror
Whatever it is, it's just sitting there laughing at me
And I just wanna scream

What now, I just can't figure it out
What now, I guess
I'll just wait it out, wait it out
What now, please tell me, what now

There's no one to call
'Cause I'm just playing games with them all
The more I swear I'm happy
The more that I'm feeling alone

'Cause I spend every hour
Just going through the motions
I can't even get the emotions to come out
Dry as a bone but I just wanna shout

What now, I just can't figure it out
What now, I guess
I'll just wait it out wait it out
What now, somebody tell me, what now

I don't know where to go
I don't know what to feel
I don't know how to cry
I don't know, oh, oh why, so what now

Just another morning..

Aaaaaaaah I hate that moment when you're about to take your last sip of coffee after your last bite of breakfast and you see you've already had your last sip.... Whyyyyyyyyyyyy?!!!!!!! And you can't go make another cup, coz all you were really prepared for and wanted is that last sip. 

...freakout...

Rock n roll til I die

Music awakens every nerve in my body, It rattles my emotions, It moves my soul, It sends my mind away.... I wouldn't be able to describe to someone who doesn't feel that connection for music what a guitar and a passionate voice can do to me emotionally..... The cool part about music for me is that it's the ONE thing I actually don't care if I ever convince anyone of.... as long as I'm convinced...

It makes me smile......it makes me laugh.... it makes me cry....... I can watch people perform and sing, until forever.... It never get's old... it never tires...

I get lost in the notes, the chords, the words.............. I can't think of a better way to experience life than musically....

Wherever it is - listen, wherever it plays - go, wherever it lives - be.. just be in it... always.

Right now its playing through my headphones at a decibel that shuts out any version of normal life.................

Chris Cornell
James Hetfield
Axl Rose
Myles Kennedy
David Grohl
Eddie Vedder
Noel Gallagher
Steve Tyler
Kurt Cobain to name just a few.......

Myles.... what a beaut. <3 ...

Doing a clip with Slash, but better known for frontman of Alter Bridge..

GnR - Axl..One of the best singers everrrrr

Chris................. oh.... What a voice.. 

David Grohl...... Times like these.. 

Anyway I could go on forever........................ it's too big a passion...

Sometimes in life you have to lose a few battles if you want to win the war.

Saturday's wisdom

- because you shouldn't be any less wise on the weekends...............

Getting there

Add-ons.... fixes.... paint jobs.... getting ready for summer................... 

Hope sinks

I guess it's always the safer option to believe that if something seems too good to be true, then it is... Any idea how cynical that is? That everything that I've experienced that made me feel quite happy in a surprised way, has ended up leading to a disappointment. One day..... One day ill lower my expectation levels even lower than I have already..... Then perhaps when I truly am excited about something ill know that I can have faith in it not letting down my emotions regarding it, and that I can trust in it.....

Most people find solace in hope.... But for me, hope's my adversary...

So much love

It really is true about cars and the novelty wearing off when you driving them 24... Park it away for a little while and get back in and take it for a drive.... All appreciation restored.... Or rather realizing what it is you actually have, when time has maybe made you forget....
