Protecting my home

My home also doubles as my workspace. I work as a producer and recording engineer out of a few converted rooms in my home. Part of becoming a reputable audio engineer is having the gear to back it up. I’ve made sure that I am using a state of the art recording desk, high-quality microphones, …

Best Decision Ever

I had solar panels installed on the roof of my double-storey home six years ago now. I did so because I was spending so much money on electricity and it was making it hard to justify working from home every day. Well, I can happily say that I haven’t been in the office for six …

Contemplating braces

I’ve never been a huge fan of my teeth. While they don’t look horrible, they’re definitely not a perfect salesman or model smile. For starters, they’re extremely weak and it doesn’t help that I’m someone who is guilty of using my teeth to open packaging. I’ve cracked my teeth numerous times and I was genetically …

Muay Thai Phase

I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve gone through my fair share of phases. I’ve been extremely into the heavy metal scene, I’ve dabbled in teaching my dog to run agility courses, and I’ve even become a qualified Muay Thai competitor. I’m going to be honest, of my phases, that’s the one I’m most embarrassed …

Crowns and Ribs

I am currently on a mission to find the best rack of ribs in Australia. This mission started about a year ago when I was watching a series where a guy travelled to a variety of cities in America to eat all these different fast-food meals. These meals included everything from giant burgers to giant …

Flat feet boxing

A big part of boxing is the footwork and the ability to stay on your toes. I really struggled with this on the first day. It felt as if the arches under my feet were straining but I assumed this was normal for beginners. After about a week of training, my trainer noticed that I …

Magical Earring Warning

Seeing as I performed the best in the boar wrestling competition, I was permitted to leave the area first. After climbing back aboard my ship, I was off, sailing the waters around Victoria in order to find the location of our next challenge. The fancy earrings I wore pulled me south, toward the great frozen …
