Photo Portraiture
For Christmas, my mum gave me a ‘voucher’ for a photography course. She made it herself and it accompanied some money with which to pay for said course. My mum does good presents. I took some time looking around for a course that would suit my skill level, more experienced than a beginner but not…

The day after the night before
I didn’t manage to get to White Night in Melbourne last night, for various dull reasons that I don’t need to go into. So today I thought I would head into the city and see if there were any remnants, or things I could still see. There wasn’t much left, and there wasn’t that much…

Lost and Found
During my adventure on Sunday in the laneways of Melbourne, I came across something that looked like discarded drawings.

Watching Movies: Flickerfest
I don’t know about you, but I enter competitions for things under the assumption that I’ll never win. That assumption has been severely challenged the last week as I’ve won movie passes twice! One is for Dallas Buyers Club (so I’ll be reviewing that in the next week or so, yay!) and the other was…

St Kilda Festival 2014
Yesterday afternoon I braved the harsh summer sun to wander around St Kilda and soak up some of the festival good times. The St Kilda Festival is a free annual event which runs for a bit over a week and culminates in Festival Sunday (yesterday). There is free live music, and rides, and stuff, and…
