There’s nothing wrong with Kmart, it’s just not exciting anymore. I’ve just gotta get out of retail before it eats me alive.

Take a no-commitment flat somewhere, monthly rent, no contract. Then you do exactly what you've been doing in Darwin. You had to find your own jobs, if I'm not mistaken. You need to stick to one thing and fucking own that thing. If it's photography, then you need to go out there and find your own jobs, call people, take photos of shit for people regardless, etc. There's nothing wrong with working at Kmart, it pays the bills and keeps you alive.

Generally if something ever happens or people want me to do stuff, it's always at the same time. Without fail, it's always the same damn time. I find myself only really looking at myself in a negative manner if I'm incredibly bored and it's easier to critique myself harder when I've got nothing occupying my head. If anything, I've found out it's easier to be pessimistic about a situation than it is to be optimistic. Oh, and yeah, still 'working' at Kmart, I just have to get off my ass and go find a new job. I was talking to someone the other day about leaving Darwin and going interstate and doing the same down there (taking photos), but I wouldn't know where to start.

I don't mean that in a negative way, it's just you're always idling on IRC and seem busy most of the time. I guess that's because of the timezone differences and you working at Kmart (do you still work there? there was no mention of still working). You get money for your photography right? You're pretty good from what I've seen, and you seem to be putting a downer on yourself. You state you always seem to write posts that follow this trend, but that's really your own doing. I mean, you're looking at things in a negative light, therefore your posts and outlook will be negative. Flip that shit, you find enjoyment in the smaller things, talk about them, you don't need to feel amazing and have done amazing things like heal a thousand lepers. Work on moanlog if you want :) (take that as a joke or a serious offer) Also I lolled at the Thunderbird sound thing.
