Another week over!

Its been a week since I posted, must be some reflection of this rushing busy thing we call life.

I've had a busy week of work, not too exciting, but pays the bills. Its been 3G lauch week for Vodafone, so that has provided some new challenges at my part time job at First Mobile. I've also been looking into more new opportunities for film and tv work.

Went to movies on friday to see Land of the Dead with my friend Paul, It was an ok movie, but a little bit predictable and hollywood at times. I did spend a bit of time thinking "dang, that makeup artist must have gotten up early!" ... hmm typical film geek. haha.

Saturday I went to Cambridge to my friends Toni and Mark's engagement party, then back up to Auckland to go to a wrap party for a short film I was involved in earlier this year. I was a "previsualisation actor" or "previsualisation assistant"... wondering what that is? Well I did the acting out of the scene so that the director could check out camera shots, positioning of actors, etc, and so that he could then say to the real actors "this is what I had in mind". That was a new role for me, never done it before, but it was kinda cool to watch the film and go, oooh I remember this bit but I wasn't there :-) I met some wonderful new people at the party, unfortunately some people I may never see again, but I wait in hope, hehe. (Dan if you're reading this at all, then you'll know who I'm talking about ay ...?). Ran into a couple of people I didn't realise would be there too, that was kinda cool. I got home at about 4am, and slept most of sunday.

Got up in time to shower, have dinner, and head into church. Managed to get a flat tyre on the way, noticed it when I got to town. Decided to leave it for now, went to church and changed it after. That was a new adventure for me, I can now add "tyre changing" to my list of skills :-) Taught myself that wonderful new skill tonight :-)

Well its nearly 3am. I'm somewhat of an insomniac right now. But I start work at 9, so sleep should probably be next on the agenda. But I'm not tired yet :-( I only work for 3 hours tomorrow, so I guess if I can't sleep now I can do so after work. Wonder if my body clock will ever be normal? Nah probably not in my line of work!
