leave it all behind, swim against the tide

and here we are. 2013.
i have not accessed this archive of memories in 2 years. wow.
reading my previous posts is nostalgic. i used to think a lot. i used to think too much.
and the past two years has made me realise that while it is good to be accountable for your actions, what do you achieve by taking your time with things, and being inhibited by insecurity? it's really surprising how much i've changed in 2 years. but the most important thing is that i'm willing to let go, and actually get more out of life as a result.

here's a summary of what's happpened so far:
Music - so that band Pejorist? i still work with the same guys, and god bless them for being patient with me. we dropped the name Pejorist after a few lineup changes, and now are Rejuvenate. fingers crossed that two years from now, we're still together :)
         - i also front the methylated goats as a guitarist/vocalist. we're a 4-piece rock outfit, and definitely more mainstream than Rejuvenate. http://www.facebook.com/TheMethylatedGoats
Antioch - so i met some friends a few years back that dance, play music, and reflect upon life. we believe in god. there's been times where i've questioned and explored other paths of spirituality, but for now, the community of Antioch is here to stay
University/the arts student culture - i changed course from music industry to arts (international studies). i know, i'll be unemployed for the next few years, but i do enjoy learning the world's problems. i drink more as an arts student. i also listen to more indie music, and dress more mainstream.
Work - i left mcdonald's on a good note, and found another job as a kitchen hand not long after in chinatown. unfortunately, it didn't work out, and we mutually parted ways. time to troll seek.com.au
Travel - my gap year was amazing! going to the USA and Europe completely opened my eyes to new ways of living. i'll post pictures up soon.

keep your eyes peeled: this blog will now serve as a platform to launch lyrics for my acoustic solo project, and a diary for achievements/travel for the future.

love all round,
