Well it's the beginning of a fun filled couple of weeks starting with Oasis at the hordern and then going on to Foo Fighters, Jamiroquai and then of to NZ!





Oasis was packed out and the music was pretty great, although I don't like to admit that I liked it too much. I don't think I'm allowed to tease Noel for liking them now that I have been to a concert. Had a great time apart from badly damaging my back by hoisting up Noel and Chino not to mention some random girl who came up and wanted to go on my shoulders.

Now I'm in pain just hoping that my back will be better before the Foo Fighters concert tomorrow night. Yayah!

Pumpkin pie

How to make a pumpkin pie for Thanks Giving.

Step One: Find a recipe online. I chose maple pumpkin pie 1.

Step Two: Purchase the necessary ingredients.



Step Three: Cook and stuff.

Step Four: Wrap it up and take it to work.



Step Five: Eat it.



Step Six: Be Happy and Thankful



Conclusions drawn from this cooking experience

• Don't cook your own pumpkin pie


• Pureeing your own pumpkin sucks ass! Canned is much easier.


• If you want to cheat when pureeing your own pumpkin instead of putting it in the oven for 3 hours (crazy!) you can microwave it until it's soft and then put it in the oven for about 30 mins and blend it. That is if you don't care what it's going to taste like, you just want to impress the ladies. Let's face it, you don't want to cook too well or they'll make you do it all the time!


• Chicks really are impressed at guys that even attempt to cook, even if the food tastes like shite.


• Should use those real american orange pumpkins instead of butternut. Probably should use a bit more spices too.

On level 4 of the Elec Eng building at Usyd this big framed picture is featured with a caption underneath that says "Tanya Crawford and David Tong showing how you do it at the 2004 Graduation Dinner".

I'm offended, this was my graduation dinner and there is no picture of me blown up in the halls of Electrical Engineering. I gave 4 years of my life to this institution, Chino (David Tong) dropped out after second year and was there as my guest. I can "show how you do it" with the best of them. Why not put me up there. In fact, I have just the picture, here's a picture of me, Adam, and Rosie "showing how you do it" at the 2004 (my!) graduation dinner.



Frame that and stick it on the wall, I even have a glass of wine and purple stained lips. Now THAT, Chino, is how you do it!

My New Phone

Just got the Sony Ericsson K300i, I got it for free from the insurance company. Kinda broke at the moment so didn't want to fork out $350 for a better phone. Still it takes pretty good pics, some of which I uploaded to flickr directly via email as a picture message, 1280x960 (1.3 Megapixels, but I think that it cheats to get this and it's naturally 640x480) and can take video, play mp3s etc. Only has 12MB memory though which is a bit of a bummer. But I think I'll hang onto this for a little while without a contract and go to a $49 cap without insurance this time. Then maybe after a year or so get a better phone. Oh the other annoying thing is that it doesn't have bluetooth so I have to get a cable to connect to my comp.

Witnessed history today with the Socceroos qualifying for the World Cup for the second time ever the last time being in 1974, 31 years ago! Go Australia!

Also found out today that I just got approved for the house in Balmain! Just need to go down and sign the lease. New Years Party will definitely be at our place with views like these.




To top that off I also found out from insurance that I'm going to get my new phone. Was actually quite quick seeing as I only picked what phone I wanted yesterday.

What a day! GO AUSTRALIA!

Finally got some Melbourne cup pics up. Got some good pics up there, mostly of me and Jackie :D

Was a great time, didn't end up winning any money, pretty much broke even. Put a little bit on the diva but not nearly enough to cover my massive bet on bloody Railings! Stupid Noel...
