Wakey Wakey

I’m feeling very awake, much better than yesterday. But I slept in til 9:45am this morning. I was that tired. Usually I’m awake at 7am. Then again, Alwin called me twice this morning while I was still enjoying my sleep. He was all peppy and alive and decided to be a motivational speaker for the day. I fired him and went back to sleep.

So now I’m sitting here with a chai tea hoping that today is going to be a good day. I’ve already made rent payments for the new office. Yesterday I wrote that Alwin and I were walking around the city. While on that journey I picked up some handy references for illustrators and designers, and also the designvic.com brochure from the AGIdeas stand, which I’m going to include in the feasibility study for the business. I should go put milk in my chai.

Also, as I didn’t end up at the business meeting yesterday, eep, I’m rocking up today and hoping to get some kind of work done. We got the carpet layed down, so I’ll take a photo of that also. Right now I’m charging the camera battery.

Got a few things I want to bring up with Mariana and Steven my business buddies. I’d like to bring up our working schedule, our price lists, our jobs, furniture, in particular shelving, tables, seats. I’d like to tell them that the deposit has been paid. I also want to bring up the feasibility study that I’ve prepared. I’ve spent the last week setting the layout for the study so we can start working on it. It’s looking pretty shnazzy at the moment.

Oh i also owe money to Mariana for getting keys cut for me to enter the office. And also for the carpet. We ended up with carpet that cost 90bucks. Pretty cheap. and theres still heaps left over that we’re trying to sell. So I owe a total of $41.60 as we split everything by 3 people.

Anyway, I’m gona scoff the rest of this tea down nad head out. I’ll be posting later…

Not an intro and not an end

I’m really sleepy as I’ve been walking around the city all day with a pair of boots that were definately not made for walking. The highlight of my day was sipping on some beef and veggie soup down one of the alleys in Melbourne. The lowlight of my day was the drive home during peak hour feeling extremely sleepy. But now I’m listening to a youtube video about designing a sustainable future with a guy named Professor Chris Ryan, see below. I honestly don’t think it was a wise move on my part to listen to this man speak while I’m sitting here half awake, however it applies to my future plans so I’m forcing myself to listen to the whole 9:18 minutes, eh. Oh on the plus side, I listed down my inventions in my red excerise book. So far I’ve got about 10 or so ideas. Am I an inventor? No. But coming up with new creations is my new hobbie.

When I checked my phone for the first time this morning I noticed I had no calls or messages. Not surprising though, but then for some weird reason I would have my friend call and hang up after one second, and I had a call from some random number I didn’t know so I didn’t pick up. But I just remembered right now that I forgot I made plans to see a lady about a studio space today. uh oh spaghetti oh. I should call her. If I had credit. Tomorrow. I’ll call her tomorrow.

My vow of not eating any more chocolate has been broken. I realise now how hard it is for people to quit smoking. Chocolate is so hard to give up. I just had a milk chocolate drink from San Churros. It was good to my tastebuds. But now I’m left a bit lactose intolerant. I’m going to give it up. Starting from now.

Here’s just a random idea: I wouldn’t mind having a pet sheep. It could eat the lawn. And I could hug it when it gets wooly. Better yet, Alwin was walking around the city with me today wearing thongs or jandles as they call them in New Zealand, and it was a pretty cold day so he was freezing his toes off, so I figure a good pair of mocathongs would be good for him. Woolen thongs.

oh by the way… we’re starting a new design company.
