iCYCLE

SO I bought a Bi-cycle- and chose this week as the week i'd start my commute to work on this bipedular contraption, I think it's a good move it's cheaper than the tube and a lot healthier,(unless you get hit by a bus of course).

The only inconvenient thing is the changing your clothes and having a shower- which i have to do, I sweat for fun sometimes, so I'm not going to risk any cycle related smelly time for anybody.

When I work in Graphics, i wanna use my bike alot and now that I have a a bike I think I may upgrade to a Motorcycle but no time soon. "It just seems like that would be so much fun" , he says while making motorbike noises.

Ih and a good friend of mine introduced me to Lynda, I will be spending some good times with Lynda soon enough, Lynda is a online learning tool especially for the creative www.lynda.com. So good

today was wasted time

Afternoon,

I am aware that I will live for a finite amount of years , months , weeks days seconds nanoseconds and so on. I'm sure you get my point.

I don't know what percentage of my life I am spending in this office today, BUT I can assure you this percentage of my life is being wasted as i type, even when I have work to do I believe it's time badly spent but today . the day that I had nothing of substance to do seems Ike the biggest waste of all.

I can't demand my time back, time is money so why am i spending it here in this grey building , made of concrete resembling some eastern bloc military building.

i wish i was brave enough to hand in that P45 and do something remotely enjoyable for a day job, for a living, to live to be alive. (sigh)

Lord give me strength and direction,

Complain and do nothing about it , that is what a lot of people do, why am I the same?

le trop long voyage

I just travelled from london to Cavaillon(sud de France) by train, at the moment I've been shipped off to France n a weekly basis to make some millionaires more money. The train journey was meant to be oh so relaxing but this was far from the truth. The Eurostar leg of the journey was real good, smooth professional and on time, very Japanese- My connecting train was 1.5 hours later- that wait is the same period of time that my normal plane journey is.

And in regards to the connecting train, I ended up being on the wrong and the right train at exactly the same time. My broken Franglais helped me understand that the train was going to split at Lyon so i had to do an unnecessary mad dash.

Everything was late- I was late to pick up my car. (which is nice btw- I drank like 2 litres of litre and lost it due to stress sweat :D

only real good thing is that I got to do 3 lessons of Kanji- I'll be done by the end of the week.

this was a tired rant- call me and i'll shout at you- if im not still tired

Create a crossroad

Create a crossroad for yourself and take the step on the path you want to follow.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life or it could be. I'm tired of hearing myself complaining and whining. I'm tired of work I put time into for no sense of satisfaction, overtime for what, overtime for who.I'm 24- soon to be 25- still young I canart from scratch right. I can take a paycut right? As long as it is for my pursuit of happyness I'm for it ( yes it is misspelt for a reason) I'm a creative by the way not a robot.

:D

I'm a wasteman

Hello

I'm sorry, I am a wasteman.
If I had any fans they would have left me. I just realised I have not put finger to keyboard on this blog all year. Granted it is february but lo and behold I am still a wasteman in the blog posting world.

Anyway I have been busier than a bumblebee in Kew gardens.
I've boosted up my Japanese ,my website is in real development stage and I have actually made and worn my own garms.

Things are looking up. I just need to plan what i want to do with the next few years properly and I'll be happy.

Oh In about 6 weeks I will be on the way to japan for 2 weeks with me Mrs.
Takeshi poking my belly a couple times made me realise that it needs to go.

Hopefully before then. i don't want themthinking I am a travelling Sumo wrestler.

Anyway Mata ne

ON IT

the things you work on till you can't work no more are the things you need to work on till you can't work anymore

Does that make sense in a logical way.

I just want to add that i got in from Thai Boxing at about 9 and went straight to the mac-

Left the mac at 1 and went straight to the kanji -never left the Kanji, i fell asleep with it.

I loved that, I like visual art, hopefully I get a tablet for christmas and then move on from there.

I swearrrrrr by the power of grey skulll

Ariyo makes no sense, and he speaks in a weird way.

loner boy and the bellydancers

The title sounds like the name of a band , but this was no band my friend this was the title of my yesterday evening.

I wonder how I came across yesterday smartly dressed black man posted against the wall BIIRU in hand, uttering a word to no1. Did my shyness come across or did i look stuck up like so many of my peers told me I came across in the first year of UNI.
I'm bloody shy sometimes, among my friends and with their backing i can be loud and boisterous but ge me on my own and I will shrink like your bank account balance would if you gave your details in reply to Baba Tunde's sob story of an email.

Last night I went solo to a japanese language exchange event www.midievents.com, ended up being a really cool night though japanese belly dancers and all.

speaking to a stranger is daunting enough for me, I mean i can ask for the time or directions BUT to strike up a convo for no reason (ahhh Kowai desuyo) Scary, for real. Multiply that feeling by the fact that you speak completely different languages and then time this by the power of shy and then you get me standing against the wall with a BIRRU.

Nice guy called danny had no problem initiating convo but as more me, the wall was my friend. With Dannys help I got talking to some guys and the conversation started to flow. Increased my japanese network by 3 which was cool, spoke a lot of nihongo as well. Bare in mind I've been doing this for a few months i have to pat myself on the back just a little.

Anyway MATA
