8mm is for sissies.

Though it was weeks ago, I haven't written anything about the Sufjans Stevens concert at The Tivoli. Well, all in all, not to beat around the bush, to find the point and get straight to it - I loved it. It was a great night! Pete (*khao-pete), Ants (~tag-zero) and I all went, found a spot with a good view and not too noisy neighbours. Sufjan and his crew made the night as great as I was hoping; it was fun, funny, amazing, stirring; all 'round I had a wonderful time. It left me with even more love for his songs, his music, the imagery and the meanings.

Next concert? Jens Lekman! On the 5th of March at The Troubadour. Oh boy oh boy oh boy! :excited:

In other news, my TAFE course starts in just over a week. I'm really looking forward to it! My only worries are that I don't yet have a job to go to, and that I don't know what writing books to buy. It might seem trivial, but what I write in, on and with does matter to me. I've spent a few lunch breaks in Officeworks staring at the Spirax range, trying to decide on books. A4 is almost a given size, but do I want 120 pages without margins? Or 140 pages with margins, filing-holes and two pockets at the front? I want the pockets, they're very useful for storing loose pages, but I don't really want or need filing holes and I'm not fussed on margins. Damn! And another thing - what's with 8mm line spaces? Are you kidding me? What an ugly amount! Seeing it puts me in mind of 13 year old girls writing in their diaries, with big circles over the i's and depressed poetry (optional). Thankfully, most of the Spirax range has 7mm lines, which makes me a happy girl. I have my favourite pacer, my normally-favourite black ball-point/gel pen (0.7mm) that’s now competing with a new set of (0.3mm) gel pens, a little pencil case and a few other things. I’m feeling pretty good about it all! Orientation is this Monday.

That's all for now. :)

Good luck on Monday. I went to the Jazz Club tonight at Kangaroo Point. You should go with Jackons, I think you'd love it.

When Tess had passed over the crest of the hill he turned to go his own way, and did not know that he loved her still.

Monday was good :) It's a small class (10 people) but this will probably just mean reduced contact hours, and more self-paced/set work.

The Jazz Club, ey? We've gone past it a few times, but never been inside. Is it jazzy? What's it like?
