Kids being awesome

When I was in Year 1-3 we used to choreograph dance routines to pop songs and perform them to anyone who would stick around for three minutes. In Year 5, I remember actually joining my new school's dance club and we did a dance routine to Billy Joel's "We didn't start the fire" choreographed by an energetic and enthusiastic young visiting teacher. Such good memories, warms my heart still to this day. So great seeing kids being amazing and having fun to great pop songs, restores your faith in humanity's future.

Investment

The fact that I am still wearing the leather jacket that cost a month's worth of wages from my first casual job when I was fourteen has proven me right.

Singing a song out loud

when you don't really know the lyrics, walking your little lady of a dog, getting smiles from strangers.

Happy Northern Fathers' Day

Thank you Dad and all the Dads out there for being so awesome... and a teensy bit daggy just once or twice..

Dreams

Hold on to your dream and watch it come true Myf Warhurst is singing Islands in the Stream with Kenny Rogers and it's making me cry tears of joy

Taxi Drivers who are nice

and can have a good yarn in both Adelaide and Melbourne today. Life is sweet.

True friends come from all corners of the world

and the connection is just as strong as if they were just around the corner. You just have to ration out the bear hugs, red wine and beautiful dinners.

There is so much power flowing through you

Even if you are afraid that it is too much too harness, too powerful to control, too much to bear. You must share it, bare it and let it flow. Have faith there will be a subtle few who are strong enough to need it, feed on it. Your voice is a beautiful force, set it free...

Zola Jesus performance blew me away

Love seeing up-and-comers

Such a lavish production. Voices with a lot of potential.

I'm grateful to be born into such a lucky country.

...and that charities like One Girl allow us to give something back in the form of education and simple hygiene for girls in Sierra Leone. Having Blue King Brown perform at their cocktail gala was just a bonus! They raised more than $48000. So impressive!
