It's work related
So this is wussup:
The dates are not set yet, but I will be in NZ for around 2 weeks in January. Auckland is where it all started for me: my interest in design, my hopeless love story, leaving my comfort zone and not knowing where I was heading. Though for the past 4 years I've had ups and downs, and times when I really felt like giving up, leaving NZ was still the hardest thing I have ever done.
And the reason why I'm so immersed in work is because I think its the only thing I have. I work so hard not because I'm a career oriented piece of rock but because I think there is still hope in it. If I had anything else, I'd do the same... at least I'd like to think so anyway.
The past 4 years have been nonstop study and work, it's finally time for me to just stand...and breathe. Someone take me back to that playground at my beach...I want to play on the swings! haha
I'll also be going there to hunt down some new clients and any designers who might be interested in working with me. (Yeah I don't think I can ever just play for 2 entire weeks.)
Hit me up if you're gonna be around! Lemme show you how its done!
So excited!

Royal Academy of Art for the Georg Baselitz exhibit.
One of the 'up-side down' paintings, with an obvious Munch influence.

At the Churchill Arms at Kensington. Cute place by the way!

Apart from the obvious, like visiting all the museums and galleries, here is a list of things I want to do in London:
(+) BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall
(+) Concert at the Barbican - hopefully the Lang Lang concert Dec 16
(+) Watch a Shakespeare at The Globe Theater
(+) Eat at Gordon Ramsey
(+) High tea at the Ritz or Brown's
(+) Watch a Puccini opera at the Royal Opera House
(+) Eat at Asia de Cuba and compare it with the one in NYC
(+) Fabric and Ministry of Sound - I don't like clubbing but these are too legendary, I have to see wussup...
(+) Make a short - as in movie

The video is not so impressive, but thanks Emily King for speaking what's on my mind.
