New compilation album to get…

Just heard it on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 session – Liquid V club sessions, for all good things DnB.

Dang, I gotta go. Got Santos Renuentes to see *yet again* tonight at Tobacco Road. I wish they’d play in like, New York or something like that. I need an excuse to fly up there*. Plus, tomoz I have to go to… New Orleans! Oh I’m bored already. hehe.

* WTF am I talking about, like I need an excuse???

Muvico

There is a huge movie complex not far from where I live called Muvico. Actually, there are a few of them around the place. This one has 24 cinemas – nothing to write home about when you come from a city that had a 31 cinema complex – but this place is all Egyptian themed and tries to be impressive in that respect. These cinemas weren’t as good as the 31 cinema complex though. Maybe it was the crowd.

I’ve noticed a bit of a contrast to movie-goers here and over in Australia. Over here there are a few people who lack respect for anyone else watching a movie and don’t recognise the fact that other people actually did pay to see the movie too. These people were constantly checking for messages on their mobile phones. I remember once I had a guy listening to his CD player at full volume sitting right next to me.

Point being, I went to see Star Wars episode 3. It was oooookay – but that was from going in with extremely low expectations. I guess those expectations were met. The wooden performances had me laughing in a couple of spots. I was thinking “does Lucas really expect me to buy into this?” Well, he got my money so I guess he really doesn’t care. The movie experience was perfectly summed up though when during the silent parts I was able to hear some guy behind me snoring.

It’s done!

So, the future is going to be even more exciting. In the next couple of months I’ll be going through the motions of buying a car, finding a flatmate, getting a fortnightly salary (compared to the monthly one I’ve gotten so used to) all American style. To be perfectly honest, I didn’t make this move for the money. I won’t be much better off here than I was in Australia, but the difference is I *won’t* be in Australia. Mexico is only a couple of hours away by plane. Jamaica ain’t that far either. South America – just a wee bit south. Problem is that due to my Visa extension I won’t be going outside of the US for another few months until processing has been completed.

That doesn’t matter though, there is enough going on over here to keep me busy. The French food and wine festival is on this coming long weekend in New Orleans and I’ve made plans with a couple of friends to go for a road trip. I haven’t been a tourist for a while now so “I’m excited”.

Adios muchachos.

Update on change

I’ve given myself the weekend to think about this and do some more figures. I should know myself better. Although I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while, I have a gut feeling that says something isn’t right with the current terms and conditions. I’ll update how things go on Monday, which is my deadline for replying.
