I just got a copy of my TV segment trying to break the Guinness World Record for Fire Breathing in Beijing, China in December last year:

I've blown my headgasket so I had to borrow her old car til I can fix mine on the weekend. I have her keys here and they have a little cat on them and a heart with a little blue gem in the corner.

I miss my mum =( ...

I just uploaded a copy of my segment from the Guinness World Record show onto the androgen website if anyone wanted to see it but missed it when it was on TV. Just head to the Androgen website and go to the movies page.

My phone is broken ... and the dodgy replacement I have for the time being has so few screen colours, it makes me want to cry. It also doesn't have many numbers in it, so sorry if I haven't messaged anyone I was supposed to. On the plus side, I've been waiting this phone out for a good while now waiting for it to break and give me a valid reason to buy some new technology ... so by the time I get home tomorrow, I'll have more on screen colours than ever before.

Oh ... and it's new hair time ... thank god for that.

Ima get me an agent.

I need to track down some white, silver or grey hair extension hair by this weekend so I can do something different when I get it redone on Tuesday. Does anyone know where I should start?

I do not feel at all good inside my head right now. I'm having a horrible anxiety freakout featuring major insecurity. My front mind is trying to calm my back mind down and tell it rational things, but my back mind wants to be sick and scream and have a breakdown. This is horribly unpleasant. I'm going to try and sleep it off.

I'm about 8 hours out from newyears and I have no idea what to do. Current plan was supposed to be heading into the valley and seeing who I could find. Yeah ... rock on. I have a feeling I'm going to spend the bulk of that night sitting on the ground in the middle of the mall with a red-eye fending off cockheads. A majority of my friends all have their own plans and I didn't quite rate a mention in any of them. A lot of people will be at the Depot, but I don't especially feeling like running up and tagging myself onto someone elses new years. Faith/Lovecats is on ... but then I don't know who will be there, and again, that smacks of sitting by myself on a bannister waiting for something to happen. I've been invited to a party and would fairly like to go, but it's a party full of people I don't know and I would be there without a real base.

I don't know what to do ... best option right now sounds like heading to bed at 8pm ... waking up tomorrow and convincing myself I didn't miss anything.

Or maybe just go and sit in my abandoned house.

Stupored NewYears.

I'm trying to be smart. I'm trying to be patient and not make the same mistakes I keep making. Don't think so much and don't stress about things and don't emphasise. Read things once and then not again. They probably thought what you first thought they did anyway. Don't think so much.

Don't think so much.

And take more photos.

Tomorrow is Christmas.

I want to tell you about my friend the Dwarf Star. The first time I met him, he said he was a Dwarf Star because he was small and he was famous. The second time I met him he said I could never be a Dwarf Star, because I was too tall, and I wasn't famous. The third ... the second time I mean, that I went to see him, he was not in a very good mood. He said "Stop coming around here!". The last time that I went to see him, he had passed away.

My journal is becoming awfully hard to work. I don't really know what to write here, which I suppose is a consequence of my life slowing down a bit. I'm having a bit of a friend rotation at the moment. You know when you see giant pre-programmed mixing decks and they change presets and all the sliders move up and down at different rates until they arrive at their next spot ... that's what my various friendships/interpersonal relationships feel like at the moment. They were all kind of the same with some minor ups and downs for a few months, and now someone hit the button and everything is being adjusted all at once. It's kind of hard to keep up with. But I mean, they pre-program these things ... it's not just random, so I guess it's all supposed to be at the settings they're headed to, and I have nothing to worry about.

Or something like that.

Do you find the mucus in your nasal passage makes breathing a chore?
Well then, perhaps you don't deserve to breathe at all.
Mucus is a living thing you know. It has a certain degree of intelligence.
Beetles know this.

Beetles are good doctors.

. It wasn't exactly the holiday I was hoping for, or the holiday I imagined it would be, but it was a holiday all the same. I can't really remember the last time something did turn out the way I thought it was going to, so it's not really such a big deal anymore.

I was going to do a day by day rundown, but then that would be awfully uninteresting. Melbourne was ok ... nothing spectacular. The shopping isn't as amazing as people tend to say it is. It's more or less the same stores, but there's 5 of them instead or 2 or 3 ... and about 19 Dangerfields. I bought some cool things ... namely two rings, a watch, a lip piercing, a Jack wallet .... and of course my new phat pants, which were just about the main reason I went down to Melbourne. I had planned to just buy some off the rack but ended up designing a pair and having them made up. They're pinstripe and black with silver tubing, D-rings down the side and som big 'fuck-off' zippers. I'm very happy with them ... I don't think i've ever seen pants like them before, and they may in fact be the coolest pants that have ever existed.

Melbourne clubs were awfully dissappointing, or at least the ones I went to. I'm not sure if I was missing anything major - most people rave about how awesome to goth scene is down in Melbourne - but I went to three clubs and I don't think I'd bother going back to any of them. The people were all pretty category specific. No-one was really doing anything outside of the normal ... they didn't even seem to really mix genres. For the most part, I saw either metal/band shirt style goths, and glamour/romatic/lace goths ... nothing different - nothing in between. I didn't hear any EBM/Electronic/Synth anything the whole time I was down there ... some of the clubs didn't even have dancefloors. It was fairly dissappointing - but then I was only finding clubs and wandering around on half information, so maybe I missed something. I copped a lot more insults walking around the streets than I usually do in Brisbane too ... that kind of surprised me.

All in all it was a bit of a let down. Strange too, because in the week leading up to it I had pretty much decided I was going to move down there by March next year ... this was just going to be a scouting visit. I was all decided and had even started looking for jobs down there just to get a feel for the market and stuff - but after a few days of people insulting me on the street, not really seeing any new people that really stood out, and the few people I know down there not being able to find time for me, I can't really imagine packing up my life and shifting down there. I mean it's not a horrible place, but there aren't really enough benefits to imagine leaving my life here.

Maybe I was expecting too much.

No Big Brother for me this time. I in fact got less far than I did last year - turfed out about half way through. I was all sad for a bit, because once I got through the first few stages I thought I was as good as there but then they spat me out through an emergency fire exit and into the just breaking storm ... also featuring flash flooding. That was good though ... cause no-one could see my tears <cough>

Something good may have come out of it anyways ... but more news on that later.

So now what ... still have to figure out some other way to become a temporary minor celebrity. Still have that Guinness thing next year and I hear they'll probably do a proper segment for me this time, but who actually watches that show ... I sure don't ... and it's not likely to get me the hosting position on Totally Wild that I so desperately want. I guess when I buy my new hair I'll run myself down to an agency and get them to find me spots in ads for stationery, or underwear ... or something like that. Yeah ... that should do the trick.

I'm heading to Melbourne on Wednesday night and staying for a few days. I'm pretty excited about that - I don't get a lot of holidays. And it's good too because it's actually going to be a real holiday. I have no real plans or things I have to get done while I'm down there. I'm probably going to spend most of it just walking around on my own (or maybe with Jared) taking photos and looking at shops and just enjoying being in a different city. Should be good - just a shame it couldn't be for a bit longer I guess.

No I didn't really cry.
Yes it really did flood while I was trying to drive home.
