I’ll Trade Priceless Real Estate On My Right Arm For A New Laptop

I am not joking, I really need a new computer. I mean really really! My laptop has been giving me shit for the last while, and I have had enough! I have a world-changing project to run and I need equipment I can rely on.

So, you may have heard about My Right Arm, the campaign I came up with to help me live without spending money. Well, I have been keeping a space for the person who was going to organise me a Macbook one day…but I no longer have the luxury of waiting for a Mac…I NEED A NEW COMPUTER YESTERDAY!!!!!

So, if you want your brand tatoo’ed on My Right Arm…for life…all you have to do is buy me this computer.

It is on special from AureusTech, the business run by my friend Dreyer Smit. He recently sponsored me an external hard drive so I am still trying to return the favour for that one :-)

Think I’m crazy…tell someone!

Thanks for reading.

Much love

This Is Me Blogging About Blogging

The other day I blogged about my promise to blog everyday, here is the post: Joe’s Gonna Help Me Keep Goals In 2010

You may think that blogging everyday is an easy thing to promise, but let me assure you, for me it’s huge.  In fact, it is such a big thing for me that I broke my promise on day 2 already. Nice going Adin!

Many people give up on a goal altogether when they don’t stick to it perfectly, but I’m not going to do that. I know how important blogging is to the success of my mission so I am persevering, no matter what!

It’s weird, isn’t it? Living for 5 years without spending money doesn’t scare me but blogging does! I’m not sure what’s so scary about blogging but it just is. Maybe scary is too strong a word. Maybe it is just that blogging (or writing in general) doesn’t come naturally to me, well not yet any way. I’m hoping that as I do it more regularly it will get easier.

I guess some things comes naturally to people, and some things don’t. Maybe writing will never come easy to but I am sure I can better, with practice. I flippen hope so, let’s see what happens :-)

I am much more comfortable talking than writing. I’m hoping when my Flip video camera arrives my blogging experience will change drastically. I reckon I will find it much easier to capture memorable moments as they happen on camera and just upload the videos.  I’ve done a few videos with my blackberry and with other people’s cameras and I found it quite easy to do. With a little editing practice too I am sure I can put out some pretty cool videos in the not too distant future.

I would like to say thanks to my friend Steve Jones who bought me the Flip camera. Steve has been telling me for a while to do videos and I promise to do his gift justice. Oh, he also takes the 4th spot on My Right Arm for his contribution to my experiment…thanks Steve.

Still don’t know what My Right Arm is…well I better get onto blogging about that shouldn’t I? In the meantime, check out this video.

I am feeling better already, sharing feels good,  thanks for listening :-) LOL, sounds like I am in a support group or something – “Hi my name is Adin and I suck at blogging!”

Cool, I got this one in before midnight so it counts, I BLOGGED TODAY!!!!!

I guess, you’ll hear from me sooner rather than later.

Much love

Adin
