Engage HD

So here’s the video which I made from various bits of footage of the engagement weekend in Queenstown two weeks ago. The old ship you see twice in the footage was built the same year as Titanic but managed to stay afloat for a lot longer!

On Friday morning I told Amy to get up at 3:30am which she was not very happy about. Her excitement changed when I drove past the domestic terminal and onto the international one! So it was all a secret until the check-in desk told us we’d need to

Competition Winners

Last week Marcy, Amy, Chris and I went on a trip to Western Australia. It is a 4 hour plane journey from Sydney to Perth. The first thing you notice about Perth is it doesn’t appear much different from Brisbane, Melbourne or Sydney, even though you’ve been on

iPhone 4

So the iPhone 4 has been out in Australia for a while but it is totally sold out, meaning you have to get on a waiting list for one. I’d rather just walk into the store and get one. I figured out I’d actually save money getting the

Today was a pretty full day of activities, first off it was Tasleema’s birthday at Public Dining Room in Balmoral. It was really nice and the coffee’s were actually quite strong, I left the place shaking! Next up, Eddie, who used to live upstairs on Marcus’ level at

Surfing

Friday 13th at Deadmans

Surf wise it was going off today so at lunch I biked over to Deadmans, I’ve never seen anyone surf it before. The video makes the waves look smaller than they actually were. It’s on these sort of days where I think a sandwich and a camera are

So it has been over 2 years since the “iPhone Unboxing” that I did. The phone has been absolutely awesome and it is no surprise to me that Apple’s Market Cap has overtaken Microsoft’s. Microsoft have tried very hard to play catch up with Apple and now Google

Lost Finale

So after 6 years of watching what is probably my favourite television series of all time, it came to an end tonight. After starting watching the series almost five years ago it has been a long and fun ride. Thinking back over some of the episodes and seeing how slow

Plane Spotting

So the other day I was researching if it was possible to view live feeds of aircraft flying around the world. It turns out it is possible to track aircraft with ADS-B with some fairly expensive equipment called an SBS-1, which costs about $800. However, on researching some of the

Hong Kong

Amy had a work trip to Hong Kong so I decided to tag along for the week. I’ve never been to Hong Kong before so it was exciting to hit a new city and see some of the sites of this once colonial outpost that has no goods tax.
