"Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." – Steve Jobs

4 weeks till christmas today. Its all so close. What has been nice though is the commerical world hasnt started decorating till midway through November for a change. Instead of October. Getting a little better at only putting decorations up for the month of December. The Telecom Christmas Tree in Ponsonby is almost finished being put up & the surrounding bean bags & phone booths in place. I tell you that thing is an awesome way to get people outside, together and just utterly relaxing under a massive christmas tree of beautiful lights. I heart that tree. Farmers Santa Parade this weekend but then its always been in November. Went to my first ever block party tonight. It was kinda cool, nothing flash or fancy just a sausages on bread, music, wine & beer then people from the neighbourhood getting together to meet one another and chat. I tell ya Newton is the greatest neighbourhood to live in, aside from our apartment break ins the area, people and things that happen here are pretty awesome. We got to meet our neighbours and those that turned up are all really nice people. It was just put on by some local body corp members from the apartments across the road from us as they thought it would be just a really awesome chance to meet and have a cruizey afternoon. Which was exactly what it was.

Here is the video I took of Billy Corgan singing Disarm acoustically at the Smashing Pumpkins concert at the Auckland Town Hall this year:

So the diet and the exercise have been completely blown out the water this week. The only thing I have managed to do is alot of walking and a run Monday morning. It has stemmed from this ankle problem plus going to bed FAAAR to late every night. IE: Midnight or 1am. So heading off early tonight for a run/walk tomorrow morning and pick myself back up into the swing of things. I am just going to repeat week 3 as next week pretending that this week never happened as such a failure. I guess its never easy.

Oh and Circus Party WICKED AWESOME FUN!!!! I totally want another one :O)

Anyways till next time:
