All Moved in, all systems Go!!

 Say hello to My next door Neighbor, Mt Wellington :)

 Hullo!

It's now the 9th of May and we have been at the new place for a whole month now :) Finally have the internet and Phone line connected so welcome back to the interwebs! The area is nice and our home is finally all decked out and ready for action. I've started the groundwork on Chase (next post) and also gotten myself a Car (thanks to Emperor), a computer chair (thanks to the Takara commercial lol) and a couch, desk, cabinet, microwave etc... thanks to our savings... So without further ado, let me fill you in.

First Off, we have an oven now and heaps of space in the kitchen so we can masterchef our dinners, check out these pics of a couple of our dinners :) Wife cooked the crabs, I made way to many jokes about crab zombies for me to do it :P

New Car - The Mattmobile :)

I got paid the second part of my earnings from the Emperor Gig and got us a cheap but worthy Car! It's a 1996 Rover 416, Automatic, sunroof, central locking, immobilizer, 1.5 L vroom vroom vehicle, cosy interior and 10 disc cd changer in the boot. Loving it, check out some pics. Definitely a change from my last 2 cars which were Blue, 1.3L mid 1980's models cars. In the big city with motorways highways and overkill on the hill, a more powerful car was needed, introducing...

D.I.Y. Man :)

My Dad always taught me never to pay more than you have to for something, I got the TV cabinet below for 25 bucks, 50 dollars cheaper than the tag (75)! The desk was cheap too, halfprice, The chair was average, and the 42" inch TV was also on special and about 550, cheaper than the going rate of 900-1000ish, so it pays to shop around peoples :) I mean think about it like this, every time you buy something you're not paying with money, you're paying with hours from your life so make sure you spend it well as nobody lives forever (or so they tell me)

Part of the appeal of buying D.I.Y stuff is the appeal to the hands on manhandling side of me, so you can imagine how much fun and satisfaction I had putting together these puppies :) Pics to remember the occasion lol

Tadaa finished product shots :)

 

 

Acting

In terms of acting, I haven't really done anything since the extra work on Nothing Trivial, I did do a small role in a student short film starring as the lead, When I get a link I'll share it here, but there were very professional to work with and I had a lot of fun on it. Also, Go Girls season 4 DVD came out today so when the price drops a little I'll buy it so I can share a screen cap of my one second on it lol. Hey, all these seconds around the place add up to experience and it should all pay off when I finish Chase and it sits on Video shelves :)

My latest Obssession

Apart from Chelsea winning the FA cup and getting to the Champions League final, and Jose winning the La Liga with Real Madrid I haven't really been excited about much sport, UFC's Chael vs Silva 2 is still a while away....but then I heard that through FB that the Rock was coming back to face Cena at Wrestlemania this year I got so excited, you see, I used to be a big ass wrestling fan. No kidding, Bret Hart was my boy! I wanted to be just like him. Me and my brothers would dress up like our favorite wrestlers (the other bro's favs were Razor Ramon, Shawn Michaels, Lex Luger and Undertaker) and throw each other all over the house and get power slammed on mattresses etc and then out of breath and laughing it off, run over to the TV when the Friday night show would come on and cheer for our heroes...

When the WWE swallowed WCW I stopped watching as I had other things (life) to do but since moving here to Mt wellington ,and with all of this free time while I job hunt, I've gotten back into wrestling in a big way over the last 2 weeks trying to catch up with all the storylines and beefs before Wrestlemania Cena vs Rock comes out on DVD next week. (I've averaged 3 hours a day of PPV watching over the last week) I even bought W12 for the XBOX and won my first match as my character a couple hours ago lol, I call him 'Matt 'The mechanic' Kinsman'. Maybe I'll do a short video soon to test Nazim's camera before we shoot Chase, actually, that sounds like a fun idea, now to find some cheap tables and chairs to break :)

Home Life -Nice and Cosy, Blue skies ahead!

 Anyway that's all from me for a while, Thanks for reading the blog and from now on things can only get better with this strong a foundation. I've started work on Chase and I'm pretty close to getting a job I think. so The Dream Lives on!!!
