Stuttgart, February 24-27
In a couple of weeks time I’m heading to Stuttgart with my flatmate Ryan & my mate Kevin. I roped them both into coming as we enjoyed seeing Skrillex so much in December that we wanted to see him live again.
After looking at where the upcoming tour of Europe went I realised I could get two birds stoned at once and visit Simon, my “brother from another mother” in Germany who...

Time is something that cannot be bought or sold. Once it’s gone, you can’t get it back. Eventually, it will run out, it does for everyone, so don’t waste a single second.
Where to start?
1. Cut out the time wasters.
Avoid time wasting websites like Twitter, Stumbleupon, and Reddit. Delete…

2012
Another year rolls around! Currently sitting at Chloe’s house in Tooting, London. Tomorrow Louise & I are heading back to Belfast and I can get the year properly under way.
Reflecting on 2011, it was a massive step forward for me. A promotion at work has given me great experience in business to business sales, and skills that I’ll keep with me forever. I got to travel to some...

Learned all about Hurley/Hurling today
Today I went with my friends Stu & Marty (Flatmate) to the All Ireland Hurley Junior Final which our other friend Ollie Duffin was playing in. He was playing for a team called Creggan against a team called Beart.
Hurley is a game played with 15 players on each side and the object of the game is to use your sticks (which look like double sided hockey sticks with a much larger end) to whack...

2 years in Ireland
Yesterday I clocked up 2 years in Ireland.
It only feels like yesterday that I was leaving NZ and moving my whole life to Ireland. Since then I have travelled to Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, England (3 times), flown home for 5 weeks, and Scotland. I’ve lived in 4 different houses, been promoted twice, paid back the majority of my debt in NZ, won two leagues of cricket and experienced...

SOME PEOPLE TRIED TO SCAM ME
I recently posted on the UK version of Trademe that I was looking to buy a 1st Generation 16gb iPad and that my budget was £200. (Most on site were priced around £270) I wanted to see if it was possible to buy an iPad for less than £200, and see if the people who were selling iPads had come to some sort of unspoken agreement that we’ll keep all our prices high so we all get as much money...
Still alive after Amsterdam
A week ago today I was just returning from Amsterdam after catching up with three of my best friends who live in all different parts of the world.
Flew out with Easyjet who as usual provided a cost effective way of getting from A to B. Some people seem to have all kinds of trouble with them, but I think it’s just because they can’t follow simple instructions. (1. Turn up on time. 2....

Amsterdam in 2 weeks time.
In two weeks time I’ll be getting my stuff packed for a 3 day mini vacation to Amsterdam. There I’ll be meeting up with 7 others, including 3 of my good friends.
Simon, from Germany, will be bringing his girlfriend and one of her friends. Simon lived with me in New Zealand for a year when we were in high school, and we had heaps of really fun times. I visited him in Germany for a...

12 Goals while I'm 24.
Last Sunday I turned 24. In the last couple of years since I moved to Ireland I have packed a lot in. I’ve travelled to Sweden, England (twice), Scotland, the South of Ireland, home to Australia and New Zealand and Portugal. I’ve made a whole pile of great life long friends through work, flatting, and cricket. I’ve made huge steps into fixing the financial mistakes I made while I...
Goodbye Wordpress!
Today I have switched my blog back to Tumblr as I just found wordpress too big for what I need it for. I have managed to set everything up fairly well, and have integrated twitter as the first post that appear when you visit my blog. Now to fill it with content!
