Around the end of December last year, I decided it was time for me to add something new to my repertoire. These days I'm working as a Web/UI Designer and Developer, so playing with CSS and the like has started to become quite second nature. What I hadn't been doing is drawing regularly. So I figured, it's time I finally start the comic I've been meaning to do for years.

Oh yeah, that's right... I have finally got my hands on a camera capable of 1080i video, with XLR mic input capabilities.... that does widescreen natively, and uses Mini DV tapes. This is a glorious day.

So, Friday night I performed in Defrag at the Canberra Festival of One Act Plays. One of three short plays which made the night's entertainment. My family came for the show, as well as one of my Managers from work, amongst some friends and my current girlfriend. I got some great feedback for my effort, and walked away from the night pretty pleased.

The following morning we headed to Appin for Black Stump, where we again performed Defrag, in two shows: one of them was average, the other was appalling, at least in my point of view.

before i get started whining about my own life and that sort of thing, let me update you on my brother's status. he just today got out of hospital, and i was on the phone to him, talking to him, and my dad said he was smiling. the good thing is, he's recovering. the bad thing is, he's only on gate leave, so obviously they think he might relapse, so he's able to get back into hospital a little quicker than most. in any case it's good, and i want to thank those of you who are praying for him.

you have to understand what sort of life my brother leads to understand why these events of the past week or so have such a horrible twist to them. not that a lack of being able to breathe isn't a tragedy anyway.

you see, my brother isn't normal. and i don't mean that in a horrible way. he's handicapped. he was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, and at about three months old, he came down with a virus which left him with cerebal palsy. not such a nice life to live. it's kinda like driving a car where the steering wheel isn't connected properly. he's completely normal up where it matters. ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Sledgehammer-in-the-Gut-243141456 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Sledgehammer-in-the-Gut-243141456 Sun, 15 May 2005 15:34:58 PDT Sledgehammer in the Gut nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup

first the awesomely awesome news:

I GOT THE JOB!

and now, the awesomely awesomely spastically awesome news:

I MAKE SHITLOADS!

yeah, you heard it. i'm not the proud owner of a job which pays a salary, instead of an hourly wage. i'm part-time, working 20 hours a week. i make commission which can double what i earn. there is really only one drawback: i have to work in queanbeyan for a little while.

when i say 'little while' i mean two months, give or take. that's how long it's gonna take them to open a new store right here in gungahlin, and then i can get a transfer, and next thing you know, i'll be d ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Jelly-s-Guide-on-Getting-a-Job-243151599 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Jelly-s-Guide-on-Getting-a-Job-243151599 Mon, 09 May 2005 01:05:57 PDT Jelly's Guide on Getting a Job. nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
so today was my interview for my new job. i don't know if i got it yet, but i'm very hopeful. it was hugely positive, and it was so much more like a random chat with a couple of guys than a job interview. the two guys were so cool, it made me want to work there even more. it was a lot easier than i thought beforehand.

how i get paid is something like this: i get a base, hourly rate for the hours i do. on top of that, i get commision: one part of which is a 'team bonus' for doing my job properly, the other is based on what i sell and how much i sell. so in other words: the better i serve custom ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Suck-on-that-Kmart-243158677 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Suck-on-that-Kmart-243158677 Wed, 04 May 2005 04:09:20 PDT Suck on that, Kmart! nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
so while i was at work today, i got a call about a new job. seems my little resume dropoff a couple of weeks back turned out better than i could've hoped. the place that called me is a place that i've wanted to work at for a while now, simly cause i love their uniforms, and i think it's a job i could do with no problem. goodbye kmart, hello new possibilities.

so i've got myself a little pasttime. i'm on 'newgen news'. what's that? well...

in a church, you have announcements: they let you know what events are coming up, and who to see to register for them. but it's really boring when someone stands up the front. enter newgen news: a laugh a minute way of communicating what's going down without sending the audience to sleep. basically it's run like a tv show, but each week it's a different format.

for instance, first week i'm on, i had a guy going around in a wheelie bin, and jumping on unsuspecting people, yelling out "jesus loves you!" then he g ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Life-in-the-Fast-Lane-243167085 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Life-in-the-Fast-Lane-243167085 Thu, 28 Apr 2005 05:36:39 PDT Life in the Fast Lane nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
coming from holidays and going back into the rhythm of life is somewhat like jumping in front of a bus. once you slow down, it's damn hard to get yourself going, especially if you go in cold turkey. that was this week in a nutshell...

movie ideas: polling your brains

so my 'random' poll actually had some meaning behind it. each of the synopsis's i wrote there are a basic storyline of a script i'm writing: one being 'the night before tomorrow' which you've heard me babbling about for ages. another is 'the trio' a story i been working on for a loooong time. the others i've had some thoughts about... just n ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/As-the-World-Turns-243171332 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/As-the-World-Turns-243171332 Mon, 25 Apr 2005 01:49:36 PDT As the World Turns... nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
a week. a long, hard week. my life has finally come full circle again, and her i stand wondering how i'm going to cope. it's been hard enough as it is: trying not to think about alice, trying not to get caught up in my sadness over the untimely end of our relationship.

trying to be strong.

but now... well. thats another story. tomorrow i go back to school. not such a big thing. i have a 10am class called writing for screen, then an hour break, in which i will most likely meet with pattie, an elderly lady who is attending the same course. we'll discuss various things, she having a cup of coffee, mys ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Faster-Than-a-Speeding-Something-243178381 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Faster-Than-a-Speeding-Something-243178381 Wed, 20 Apr 2005 09:04:15 PDT Faster Than a Speeding...

and so, my latest relationship ended, on a particularly sour note. oh, we didn't fight or anything. it was just the way it all went down. one minute we were happily enjoying lunch, next minute i was having to tell her that i couldn't date her anymore.

and believe you me, i'm as much a victim here as any.

see, on sunday afternoon, i was reeled in to have a meeting with some of my church leaders. they wanted to 'have a chat' to me, which usually means i'm in trouble. and i was. this time it was for dating a non-christian girl.

and they told me that they had people questioning as to why they w ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Days-of-My-Life-243200109 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Days-of-My-Life-243200109 Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:52:12 PDT Days of My Life nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
so i ran out of subbie goodness. and then my old mate, :devsycho: was nice enough to remember the people he left behind when he became one of those high-ranking admins. now i got my subbie back again! huzzah!

i say that if you care, go to his page and give him a hug for me!

the girls of jelly... revisited

so the loz thing shutdown faster than pulling the plug from the back of the puter. we seperated and went on our merry ways. it was more a thing where we realised we were better as friends, so we stopped it before anyone got too attached.

in any case, there's a new girl on the loose in my life. she's ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/How-Crazy-is-Life-243212381 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/How-Crazy-is-Life-243212381 Fri, 25 Mar 2005 13:43:26 PST How Crazy is Life? nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
so here's the deal.

i've been going through more crap than a scuba diver at a sewerage plant of late. it's so not cool when everyone is harping down your back, and all you want is for a single day to go by where you're not told off, ditched, blamed or torn down.

it is so not cool.

and i'm still going through some difficult stuff. sure, i have happy little moments which are then stamped on by the nearest person, but it's been pretty difficult all up.

so cataclysm had to be postponed for a couple of pretty decent reasons, and we have found ourselves with a really awesome production that needs a time.

therefore 'cataclysm', while still the event of the century, will be done sometime in june. while it sucks, it means that my work is much easier finished. perhaps i can actually put together some really really awesome stuff for it now!

on another note, i need some 3d work done for said production. if you know what you're doing and would like to relive me of the headache of learning, i'm all to happy to allow you the pleasure of relieving ]]> http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Cataclysm-243234305 http://jellybeansoup.deviantart.com/journal/Cataclysm-243234305 Mon, 07 Mar 2005 04:26:06 PST Cataclysm nonadult journals/personal jellybeansoup http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/j/e/jellybeansoup.png?1 Copyright 2005-2013 ~jellybeansoup @jellybeansoup
so, you'll notice that in the 'things to remember' that there is a new event call cataclysm coming up. i'm going to take a moment to explain exactly what it is, and why - if you live in canberra or the surrounding district - you should come.

the basics

basically speaking, cataclysm is the easter event for 2005 that is being run by my church, new creation. it's aimed for those with an attention span of under 30 seconds, otherwise known as the youth of the nation.

the show is an hour long production with dance, circus, break dancing and multimedia. it's heavy, it's loud, it's bright.

trevar (a close friend of mine) calls it a 'pollyanna' ending. i was working on my theatre script with him for two months and he continually told me that i couldn't just have everything turn good for my character. at the end, she still had to have some losses, or it wouldn't seem... real.

why?

because life doesn't have a 'pollyanna' ending. everything doesn't become rosy. you win some. you lose some. and that's just it: you can't win at everything.

so much for my pity party about lack of work. in the last week, design jobs, which i never really used to get, have been flowing in, mostly from within my church.

last year, i did the brochure for the weston creek community 'carols by candlelight.' i did that for nothing, it was a 'portfolio job' as i have come to call work i do for nothing. it went down very well, some even said it was the best brochure the event has had. and as such, they've asked me to do it again this year.
