Big Ups Berlins FUCKING AWESOME music scene... been to some of the sickest most random parties in the coolest venues with some of the best techno, minimal, prog and even dnb I have heard. So good going out with like minded locals not other backpackers, because they know where to take you, so sick.

BU my day. After stupid stressful work bollocks (which is admittedly not over yet), I actually took one (1) whole day off to ignore it all and just try not to be miserable. Somehow, this was outrageously successful and even looks set to continue into the evening. Still plenty of shit on the horizon, but fuck me, it's nice to feel like an actual person for a day :retzielikes:

Mind you, part of today's effort involved retail therapy and I am very concerned that this manifested as lady-shoes. Somebody, please, shoot me in the head.

BTMFU - Got my pass, I am a Master of Arts.

Started these studies in 2004! part time, since then with a year off in the middle, mixing full time work with a new child and masters study, to make compositions, an installation and about 20,000 word document... its been a shit load of work and so taxing to get it done, so many late nights and shitty working weekends, tough on the family. And recently basically had to rewrite my whole paper, so much work...

Been lots of partner and family support, also heaps of help from unsoundbwoy...

Done and dusted! Yeah! Must have party
