The last couple of weeks have been fantastic for me to catch up and reconnect with people that I have lost touch with, not through any particular incident, but because we’ve all just become so very busy with life. It really does suck being an adult sometimes, responsibilities and such you know? And I don’t even have children. Phew.
Over the past week I got over a grudge and reconnected with my Mum after a ‘disagreement’ that only one of us was aware of (see The Grudge) oops, attended a wedding on Friday and saw numerous faces that I hadn’t seen in a long time, received messages from friends that I haven’t hung out with in a while that would like to, attended a Bank Manager conference in Auckland which saw me catching up with people that I have met at previous meetings and trainings, and tonight at an event bumped into someone that I haven’t seen in person in nine years.
I’ve decided that this year I’m going to try and give more time to my friends, and complain less about the time that I don’t have anymore because “I’m so busy with my career”. Wah wah. It has been fortunate for me that I have met people who haven’t given up on me just yet, and if that’s you I thank you! I’ve met some great people through my friend Richard James, social butterfly of Auckland, and I look forward to meeting many more.
If you’re reading this, when did we last see each other in person and if it has been a long time, why? What would you like to do when we see each other next? Let’s make it happen. Let me know what you think.

Let’s pick up the pace just a little bit. Remember that massive song, ‘Clarity’? If you don’t, where have you been living? Every one, their Mother and their pet Llama knows that song. Well, you may not know that the singer on that track is 24 year old British singer, Louisa Rose Allen who goes by the stage name, Foxes.
Foxes re-released a brand new recorded version of her song ‘Let Go For Tonight’ and I love it. It’s drama, it’s intrigue, it’s pop, it’s everything. Click the single image to watch the video on Youtube.
