Holiday on the brain

Today is 10 working days till my longest holiday in 3 years (2 weeks). 
We just moved into a new house and the holiday vibe is in full swing. 
I cant wait to get the Transkei road trip going.

I found these pics and they just make me want to disappear into the wild, for some nature and fun times with good friends.

1 Page WONDER

Today I'm doing some self promotion. A friend and I started a site, it's a one page site and it's aim is to be used as a tool for people who would really like a website of their own but don't know how to go about getting it or just don't have the time. The purpose is creating one page websites, quickly and cheaply, but of coarse anything is possible.

There are set templates to choose from but you can customise them and get it to look pretty much as cool as you want it to.

Go check the site out here

I designed an coded the first 1 Page Wonder the other day.

Weekend Vibes

This is just a post to celebrate the weekend. I haven't done a fun post in ages and I don't really know why. Here are a whole couple of things that I found on-line that made me smile or inspired me.

Enjoy the weekend!

Can't get enough of this song, so I thought I'd share it. 

After a rough / awesome weekend at Rocking the Daisies this is just about all I need for this Monday. 

Enjoy

The Piano

I went to the coldplay concert last night in Cape Town stadium.

I have always loved Coldplay but my expectations weren't too high, I was actually more excited about the whole experience of attending the show with my friends and having a good time.

I was very impressed though the atmosphere was great!  Just wish they could have given The Parlotones a skip.

But the one thing that made my night was Chris Martin and that piano of his. What a cool piece of art.

It really made me regret the fact that I had to cell my piano to buy a mac while I was still studying. 

Steve Jobs

Today is one of those days in history. A day where we have to stop for a moment and reflect.

Steve Jobs is one of those guys who literally wrote history. All I can say is thank you, my thoughts are with your friends and family. Rest in Peace.

Steve Jobs
1955 – 2011

“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride … all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out 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, commencement address at Stanford, 2005


The only people for me are the mad ones,
the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved,
desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or
say a commonplace thing,
but burn, burn, burn,
like fabulous yellow roman candles
exploding like spiders across the stars
and in the middle you see the
blue centerlight pop and
everybody goes “Awww!”
—Jack Kerouac, On The Road, 1957

Submotion Orchestra

Hymn for him
This is the acoustic version of the song, this girl's voice gives me goosebumps. 

If you love the bass as much as me, put on some serious headphones and go to this link.
And while you are there you might as well just listen to all of it. Enjoy!
peace
