Something New: Week 16 – A New Commute

Ranil — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 13:50:16 +0000

Someone once pointed out that going to work wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. I can tell you though I’ll take lying on a beach somewhere and sipping on a cold beer over hopping on a train to North Sydney any day. After my many months of travelling, drinking, sleeping in, and watching my [...]

Something New: Week 15 – Drinks At The Ice Bar

Ranil — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 16:50:15 +0000

You can thank New Zealand for two things: the great scenery from the Lord Of The Rings movies and the craptastic overpriced sensation that is Minus 5. The idea is sound – create a vodka bar where the vodka is served as freezing cold as the furniture. The implementation however, that’s something else. This [...]

Pocket Universes

I’ve gotten used to living a life without keys. For the past few months I haven’t heard the familiar rattling of car and house keys as I make my way through the day but that’s not to say I haven’t had to carry a lot of things in my pocket since leaving the states. [...]

How do I succinctly describe Aussie Rules Football. I think the best description would be chaotic. Like many things Australian it seems to be a mishmash of many things coming together to form something that is unique to the land down under. Footy, like many things Australian, is as strange and as loveable [...]

After almost 8 years of being part of my life, Scrubs might be over. The season, or series, finale was a poignant look back at all the characters that helped shape my young adult life (possibly explaining my man love for some of my friends) and also gave us a look at what most [...]

Something New: Week 13 – Birthday Under A Southern Cross

Ranil — Thu, 07 May 2009 15:17:28 +0000

Being unemployed is the pits. Being unemployed and sick is even worse. Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind sitting around doing nothing – outside of applying for jobs and reading an inordinate amount of news – but one eventually misses the routine provided by work. In all the chaos of finding [...]

Coming from Los Angeles you learn to love a few things one of them being Mexican food. Outside of LA (and of course Mexico) finding good Mexican food has been quite a disappointment. I miss the taco trucks of LA and their burritos filled with carne asada. I’m craving the tastes and [...]
