One step at a time

Well, this evening I went along to the local cycling club’s training session and had a good bash out. Certainly held my own! Was sent off in the B group throughout the evening and during the race at the end I was catching the A group on the last lap when my breaks locked up (almost crashed! yikes!!).

Was good to have a break from swimming today!

Ahh, getting there one step at a time aye..!

Feeling greedy?

This post from Saturday disappeared due to my new template (i.e. I forgot to put in >=2 as opposed to >2).

What do I want right this moment?

Mmm…is a teleportation device a option?

How about a really well paying, flexible job - oh and all the knowledge and paperwork that I’ll have at the end of my studies… can I have that now please?

Didn’t think so.

I could just as much wish for a happy wife and kids, to be living in a beach house somewhere in the northern beaches with regular overseas trips and family living close by… but that would be …

Long weekend…

What’s the best part about having monday off?

…Not having to shave! Today, on my third morning of not shaving I have beautiful skin, no acne-like-looking-rash that I get from shaving every day!

Yay! If only I didn’t look like a gimp with a beard…

Aussie aussie aussie!

Well, Australia Day was yesterday (lest we all somehow forget - you know, if you didn’t have a dozen BBQ’s and a big night out, you at least would know from the fact we’re not going into work tomorrow and all the cop’s around handing out fines :D)!

I had a couple of BBQ’s to go to and in the end I decided to host my own with a relatively small group of friends I haven’t seen in ages.

Considering there were a decent portion of people driving/not drinking and only a small group of us, I have managed to fill …

Van Morrison broke my heart when I discovered my first childhood love.I’d try to suppress my smile as his lyrics struck a chord.He’d sing “sha la la la” - it was such a catchy tuneWhen he sung of the “Brown Eyed Girl” - I knew he sung of mine.

Van Morrison broke my heart when I fundraised for the club.I played his tunes, I stole the hearts - and money - of our guests.The boys and I then did him proud in Henley once we were done.As we danced in the moonlight - and ’twas …

I’m cool

Well, after yesterday’s post I’ve decided that I’m cool with life again, not so anxious and aprehensive… I guess we all have those days — don’t get me wrong, those are real feelings that have truth to them, but I am in control again and not just left feeling helpless :)

So life aye..?

Well, I’m back from down south and really enjoyed myself. It was great to be away and not thinking about anything for the weekend (belated sun/mon weekend) other than what board game to play or whether I should drink tea or coffee, red or white.

Coming back home, and plugging back into the world was daunting.

Being out of contact was surprisingly unnerving (as I was waiting on some answers) but relaxing at the same time.

Being away with a (relatively) completely new group of people was also great.

I love having good conversations! That was a lot of fun.

However, being back home I …

Confused?

It’s annoying how you can be so sure of things, or at least contempt in your head but still have this underlying feeling of confusion, uncertainty or longing for something.

That’s pretty much me right now. And I don’t know why.

Sure. I could list a bunch of possibilities, but I don’t know why!

I’m not angry about it at all, just got this weird empty-kinda feeling.

GOOGLE!!

In the space of 24 hours I have gone from 1st place in google to 7th thanks to some Gillingham soccer player!!

My traffic has also greatly reduced and I’m not sure if that’s all bad for my blog, but once the sites up and running it’ll be annoying as I’m thinking of moving all my web design work here!

New interim design

Just changed updated my template, soon I’ll be fleshing out the site more and moving the blog to lukefreeman.com.au/blog or something to that effect.  Then I’ll finish off redesigning it. But for now this is a bit more usable than the old site (which didn’t work well in IE6).

Let me know any ideas or suggestions… things you found cool on other sites, things you don’t want me to do etc :)

Thanks heaps!
