Too Cool For School…

Drew and I being badass
Woah! Another semester has flown by and once again it wasn’t blogged about much… so let’s catch up…
This issue includes varsity, working, Mabula Game Lodge, HAEZER, Twitter, moving Andrew, DJing and a whole lot more!
Read all about it after the jump!

Varsity was fairly uneventful in terms of cool stuff that I got to build so i won’t even bore you with anything else. I managed to pass all my exams (no re-writes either!
) which totally rocks… I can finally see the end of my degree approaching! As my exams ended I managed to get a job at an electronics firm to do a bit of holiday work… this means no holiday for me but at least it will result in a bit of experience.

Drew and I showing our muscles that would get the job done!
Andrew moved into a new flat… Themba, The Tonner and I moved him in… In a day! We hired “the tonner” (a 3/4 ton trailer that I had to learn to drive in like 5 minutes) and began to load all his stuff up. We also carried this stuff up stairs, I almost burnt his new place down (accident!) and we bashed things that wouldn’t fit through doorways until they did. It was great fun and made me never want to move… ever. Thanks Andrew.

Don’t put boxes on stoves…

If it doesnt fit, get the saw!
Caryn and I managed to get away and join my folks at Mabula Game Lodge for a long weekend at some point, which was real relaxing and hence kicked ass! My sister (Natalie) and George – who I definitely do not see often enough – came along as well.

We saw some impala…

… some Red Hartebees…

… and a gemsbok!

Natalie and George!
Drew, dirtyoldThemba, Caryn Paryn, Nelia Face, T-shirt Terry and I rolled off to go and see Saturday Night Live Superstar Wayne Brady! Wow! What a rad show! As far as impromptu stand-up comedy goes, this was hilariously enjoyable, if you get the chance, go go go!

The dirtyoldDisco in action!
The Viral Underground party was a great success… Thanks to all of you that came out to support! The next one will only be in August due to some lame venue owners but I’ll keep you posted!

HAEZER live at the Woods!
My current favourite local performer HAEZER was doing his “I’m touring South Africa” rounds and I got to see him twice! The first show was at Tings and was cool although it was a bit weird dancing to this BANGING electro there. My boys T-bone and sAdam joined me for that one! The Woods show killed and we friggin’ raved until the wee hours of the morning. Oh Yeah!

I also rejoined the masses on Twitter and I actually use that pretty often… so follow me if you feel like it! Find me at twitter.com/rickdisco. Electrotrash is also on Twitter, so follow the site at twitter.com/electrotrashZA to grab the updates!
I think thats about it for now!
Take it easy
^5!

Hey Rick!
I look a little stoned….or tired…..or both. Nah, you right, I was tired. LOL
