Julia, Amanda. They both end in ‘uh’.

I decided last week that I could not possibly juggle working extra hours for my rent, working normal hours, getting my life back on track and going to uni, so I have decided to put off uni for the foreseeable future. At this stage there are questions as to whether I can defer, and so it may be practical to simply withdraw. None of that is particularly interesting. What is interesting is that I decided that if I was going to put off uni, I needed to be doing more than sitting around at home in my undies watching TV. I decided I want to write more and I want to photograph more.

I’m not a person who tends to think the universe provides, but it was hard not to feel like it does when I came to work the day after, to find a request to interview Henry Rollins sitting in my inbox. And approval to review Amanda Palmer’s gig at the Sydney Opera House. And the opportunity to do much more of the same, including gig photography in the future.

My first gig review went up on the yourGigs website today. I will continue to review TV for yourTV as well, but gig reviewing is so super exciting!
