Hi, it's now 11:36 Saturday morning and I'm just chilling at home listening to some beats and watching Video Hits. I just saw the raddest video clip. It was "Gwen Stefani - What are you waiting for". So good. It's one of those clips where there's a story thrown in at the start and thru the song which is always nice. Anyway yeah Gwen who look's so hot in this clip has got writers block and is all tired and uninspired so she goes to this place which supposedly helps writers block and then she gets all inspired and stuff. I wish I could explain it better and what exactly I like about it so much but I guess you gotta check it out for yourself. You can watch the clip here

I drove into the city this morning to try and find a "Franz Ferdinand" cd which was apparently in Myer's bargain 30% off bin for some crazy price of $4.76 or something like that. My friend told me about it on Friday as he picked one up himself. So I go into the city to get it but there's none left. Dammit!!!! Oh well so instead I sorta impulse bought a new "iTrip" as I ruined my old one by opening it up and messing with the antenna to try to get a bigger range out of it. I could probably solder the old one back together again but I really could not be bothered, plus It would just break again so I thought what the hey.
Had Tafe today. Ive got 4 major projects to work on :( I really need to work on a few of the projects today so I don't fall behind and have to finish It all the night before which is my usual path of choice. I usually end up staying up the whole night finishing my work and then the next day I will be required to give an oral presentation to the class, its madness, In that overwhelming state of tiredness I can barely walk let alone string a sentence together.
I wish learning was done "Matrix style". Tank, I need to know Interface Design principles at a Diploma level. I shake a bit for a couple seconds while the knowledge is inputed into my brain and then slowly open my eyes, "I know the law of proximity".
Here's a pic of my Tafe classroom - Mac lab.
Last night was the first day for the filming of "Oooh Damn 2". It was pretty fun, some of the things we filmed were, smoke bombing houses, buying eggs from bilo and having an argument with the store manager, egging things and us getting drunk on the way to town. It was dark when we all met so we didn't really have too much we could film but we have plenty of ideas of what we want to do.
Was planning to do some filming today aswell but everyone stayed up all night last night at David's house and so we were all too tired. Some other things we plan on filming are:
- Pushing our friends into things at shopping centres
- I want to try to get slapped by some girls
- Funny made up skits
- And pretty much just dumb, random stuff
Here is a sample video from last night's filming. It's a clip of us smoke bombing a shop.

So I should be drunk right now having a great time with some friends but instead I am here in front of my computer writing this. :(
We had all planned to meet at the UniBar for after work drinks and some laughs tonight but two of my friends bailed on me and alas I am here. I was looking forward to it aswell, which I think is why im bummed. It's like when you don't care about things and arent concerned with the outcome of situations when everything works for you, but as soon as you get too attached to an idea or outcome or whatever it doesn't happen for you. It's some law of nature or something that states, "when you chase things, they run away". So yeah I guess I gotta be more detached from my expectations about things.
I wish I had a blog when I was like 12, then I could have written heaps of stuff like this, as I was learning it. Like, "today I realised that If I tease the popular girl and rip on her then this seems to make her like me. What's with this? But it works so I'm going to keep on doing it. hehehe."
Work kinda sucked today cos I was all tired and stuff and could barely stay awake. Driving on the way home I noticed one of those "TO LET" signs and without fail, everytime I see one of these signs I get the strongest urge to write the letter "
I" between the words "to" and "let". And I thought that that would be a pretty good description of myself. Haha, Hi, I am Nathan Kowald and I am the sort of person who when they see a "TO LET" sign gets all excited about wanting to make it funny by putting an "
I" inbetween the words so it spells TOILET. I think It fulfills strong urges in me to 1) Vandalise, 2) Make people laugh and 3) Display my ever present immaturity.
Ohhh ohhh yeah Im going to be doing some filming this coming Sunday of some funny/dumb stuff for a Dvd Im going to be making ("Oooh Damn 2")... I can't wait, It's gonna be so sweet! So I'll keep you posted on how this goes. Bye
It's 6:48pm and Im now eating dinner which tonight is a rather large serving of Lasagne... mmmmmm... its real good too. The cheesey sauce is all creamy like and is making my mouth water.
I woke up really enjoyably today if that makes any sense. What I mean when I say I woke up enjoyably is I woke up not feeling tired at all... there was'nt that lingering feeling of sleepiness/grumpiness that I often feel on awakening from my nightly slumber. What else made today's waking up good I think was that I had really good dreams. One dream involved lots of ladies, which is always nice. Another dream I think I was joking around with an old school friend who I havent seen in years. And Im predicting that I will now run into him or hear about him through a friend in a few days but I'll keep you all posted on if it happens or not. Now I have said this I probably will not run into him...I just jinxed myself.
At work today I took a picture of my computer/desk with my mobile phone so I'll post that up here for viewing. I work just out of the city as a designer/web developer for a Multimedia type company.
In this rather low quality picture you can see my lcd monitor and on the wall are my "decorations" - a Volcom advertisement, a pic of some sweet black/pink Nike Air Force Ones, my created South Park character from
here, a pic of Ben Stiller's character from Dodgeball and a movie stub from Donnie Darko - Directors Cut. The decorations have only just begun.. mwwaaa haaah haaa!!! <-- that was an evil laugh by the way.
Hi there!!!
After a lot of debate I've decided to get one of these blogs happening. I always thought it would be a kool thing to do, post a few words now and then onto the site but never really got around to it, until now.
I think it was checking out Tom Green's blog which inspired me to do it. . His blog is so damn funny and he even posts audio entries from his cell phone which are the best. Sometimes he freestyles on them.. definately check out his site
www.tomgreen.com.
I've just set up Audio Blogging and boy do I hope it works, Im not sure If it will though because the service is based in the US and I live in Australia, but I guess I am about to find out. So I will catch you all later. bye.
