<p>Woah! Another semester has flown by and once again it wasn&#8217;t blogged about much&#8230; so let&#8217;s catch up&#8230;</p>

<p>Varsity was fairly uneventful in terms of cool stuff that I got to build so i won&#8217;t even bore you with anything else. I managed to pass all my exams (no re-writes either! <img src='http://www.rickdisco.com/wordpress/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> ) which totally rocks&#8230; I can finally see the end of my degree approaching! As my exams ended I managed to get a job at an <a title="Keystone Electronic Solutions" href="http://www.kses.net" target="_blank">electronics firm</a> to do a bit of holiday work&#8230; this means no holiday for me but at least it will result in a bit of experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-177" title="Moving Muscles" src="http://www.rickdisco.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/moving01.jpg" alt="Moving Muscles" width="450" height="338" /><br />
<em>Drew and I showing our muscles that would get the job done!</em></p>
<p><a title="Drew on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/AndrewMohawk" target="_blank">Andrew</a> moved into a new flat&#8230; <a title="T-Bone on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/dirtyoldman" target="_blank">Themba</a>, <a title="The Tonners specs" href="http://www.trailarent.co.za/trailers/three-quarter-ton-trailer/" target="_blank">The Tonner</a> and I moved him in&#8230; In a day! We hired &#8220;the tonner&#8221; (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&#8217;t fit through doorways until they did. It was great fun and made me never want to move&#8230; ever. Thanks Andrew.

<p><a title="Caryn on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/CarynOberholzer" target="_blank">Caryn</a> and I managed to get away and join my folks at <a title="Mabula Game Lodge" href="http://www.mabula.com" target="_blank">Mabula Game Lodge</a> for a long weekend at some point, which was real relaxing and hence kicked ass! My sister (Natalie) and George &#8211; who I definitely do not see often enough &#8211; came along as well.

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175" title="Impalas" src="http://www.rickdisco.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/mabula-impala.jpg" alt="Impalas" width="450" height="302" /><br />

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!

<p><a title="The Viral Underground" href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=71897648615" target="_blank">The Viral Underground</a> party was a great success&#8230; 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&#8217;ll keep you posted!

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-172" title="HAEZER live at the Woods" src="http://www.rickdisco.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/haezer-woods-live.jpg" alt="HAEZER live at the Woods" width="450" height="338" /><br />
<em>HAEZER live at the Woods!</em></p>
<p>My current favourite local performer <a title="HAEZER" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/HAEZER/24353086721" target="_blank">HAEZER</a> was doing his &#8220;I&#8217;m touring South Africa&#8221; 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&#8217; raved until the wee hours of the morning. Oh Yeah!

<p>So after a long campaign to stop the slaughter of thousands of baby seals on the coast of Namibia, there is no choice left but to begin a boycot of Namibian products. A callous government policy that puts profit over everything else is an extremely saddening thing to see.</p>
<p>So I ask all of you reading this post&#8230; <a href="http://www.boycottnamibia.co.za" target="_blank">Boycott Namibia</a>! A website has been set up <a href="http://www.boycottnamibia.co.za" target="_blank">here</a> with all the information you need, from why the boycott is necessary to what companies to stop buying products from etc&#8230;</p>
<p>Thank you</p>
