This weekend a friend invited me for a “Sunday drive” our destination Queen Mary Falls in the Killarney Mountain ranges. Taking his Subaru WRX for a weekend drive was something we had planned on doing for some time. If you plan on making a day of it, an early start is a must this allows [...]
Recently I have wanted to experiment with ink art. I thought this would be a good medium to use for an idea I got while watching an episode of the now cancelled scifi show Alphas. Not 100% happy with the finished product I realised I need to rethink the material I’m working on – ie [...]
On the 16th March my life changed forever, my son Michael was born at 8:01pm. You could say my life changed the moment of his conception, which as a donor Dad was a very planned and thought out process. The reality of what I had done however didn’t really hit me until I held him [...]
I recently got the chance to have a peek inside the heritage listed but abandoned Woogaroo Lunatic Asylum. A favourite for amateur photographers such as myself it was built in the late 1800s to house some of the Queensland Colony’s Mentally ill. Even during daylight hours the building has an ominous feel to it. In the [...]
The greatest question to plague the human mind. “What is the meaning of life the universe and everything?” I often wonder if who we are is simply just a rendering of those few extraordinary events, the birth of a child the death of a loved one; events both amazing or devastating we experience in life.

In the past when I heard the words “stolen identity” I thought of fake passports and drivers licences. Little did I know there were criminals out there that stole tax file numbers in order to lodge bogus tax returns and steal money. I only recently became aware of this when I received a phone call [...]
Now with only a short number of weeks until my son is welcomed into the world, I made the appropriate appointment to get my Whooping cough booster. The event if indeed you can call it an event was supposed to go as follows. I attend a standard consultation with a local doctor, and ask for [...]
After much thought I decided to “unenroll” from QUT’s Bachelor of Laws (Graduate Entry), while this may not come as a surprise to some of my family and friends I didn’t do it without writing out a list of pros and cons. Unfortunately for me now is not a good time to be enrolling in [...]
Saturday I volunteered with Rave Safe at Summerfielddayz on the Gold Coast. Unfortunately due to family matters I had to leave early. A taxi ride, as well as a bus, and train trip made what would have been a 45 minute drive, a 3.5 hour trip. The walk to Marina Mirage to get a taxi [...]
38 hours, that is the amount of time the majority of us spend at our place of employment, but how many of us are truly happy in the careers we are in? I can admit that at 30 years of age I don’t have any more of an idea of what I want to do [...]
Now before you make any assumptions no I am not going in the way of a food blog, though I have been wondering where to go blog wise and indeed where to take this website. For the moment I’m happy to just use it as a personal outlet and if people read it so be [...]
I’m not generally a fan of “new year’s resolutions” however 2013 is going to mark some major changes in my life. Thankfully I am going into this year with a positive outlook on life, and my new year’s resolution this year is to document every day using a mixture of art, photography, and blogging. 2012 [...]
