New photos are about to be added!

Just to let you know DJ Crusoe is still alive (albeit underground) and is gonna send you up some photos of the awesome days.

Currently, I’m batteling through the whordes of work I’ve got and attempting to make a name for myself in the world of work. (Fun times!). I have however just joined a Creative Writing course so the days of dodgy writing may well be over!

Highlights of my photos include Pong (travel guide and good friend from Bangkok ), more beaches, volcanoes, aliens, etc….

That is all.

I’ll be back!

Note, this picture was taken by Ty the Crazy Aussie, I met in Langkawi, Malaysia. He came over and I took him round my local haunts round London.

Ubuntu Sets sail with Wong for Hong Kong

Crusoe — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 11:10:59 +0000

Today is the day that Ubuntu and Wong start their epic adventure. You can follow what they get up to on Ubuntu’s blog using the link at the top of this website. I will be following their updates and wishing I was out there as well.
Its a weird experience reading blogs for me as Im used to only writing them! I’m looking forward to seeing how the contrast in viewpoints differs from both Ubuntu and Wong.
All the same, I wish em the best of times out there. If they only have half as much fun as me on my trip, I know they will have had an epic trip and better than most peoples ‘summer vacation’. As I’m sure they will have the best of times on a trip like this (its is 6 weeks as well!) Im sure they will have the worst of times as well. I know this sounds really morbid but it is inevitable. Im sure they will pull through this and although it may suck at the time will provide them with the memories of classic travelling nightmares. Always fun to reminisce. I’m doing that whenever I get a free moment over here in the big smoke…..God I miss travelling!

Looking to see ya back in one piece Ubuntu for 3rd year! Bring me back some souvenirs! Steal something from MoS for me maybe? haha.
Hopefully, the recent spate of advertising on the blog will be able to fund future travels for me to go out there and join em one day. Otherwise, I’m doomed to moan on here about crappy weather until the end of eternity….

Anyone who understands how this works let me know! Haha.

Crusoe and MC Ubuntu Join Forces

Crusoe — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 08:16:46 +0000

The title says it all really. My main man MC UBuntu is heading for Asia soon so the big people behind Crusoes blog have agreed to let MC Ubuntu blog for us.

That means more crazy stories for you guys! Expect more great content in the next coming weeks.

Crusoe is still alive!

Sup everyone , Yeh its been a while. But things have been really busy here on my end.

Still alive in the Big Smoke (London) and got a video to share with you. The loyal readers amongst you will remember DJ Antonio. My new friend from Malaysia who helped me get established DJ-ing at MoS in Kuala Lumpur.
Anyway, he’s produced a video that needs voting for. So am sharing with you. If you like it, which I know you will please take the time to vote to help him out.

Cheers,

The Jigsaw Puzzle of Life

Crusoe — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 22:01:35 +0000

Just found out if you google DJ Crusoe my blog is the first to appear. Awesome! And now for some rambling thoughts….

Sometimes I feel like my life is a jig saw puzzle and I’m trying to work out how to fit all the pieces in. Each piece placed into the jig-saw represents a choice I’ve made, for example to study or not to study. To go out and party or to get an early night. Recently, I’ve realised for the last 2 years I’ve been trying to fit the pieces in with a hammer. Now, this jig saw puzzle is very special as the final picture hasn’t been set yet and depends on how I fit the individual pieces. I’m starting to realise that to do well at this puzzle I’ve got to think carefully about the picture that I’m aiming for and think carefully about each individual ‘piece’ that I’m putting in. Yeh, thats right, my life is a game.

Occasionally bad things happen and the pieces that I’ve struggled to carefully fit get shaken and the whole thing falls to bits. Starting the new academic year I aim to be more careful about what bits I chose to add, and the ones I do chose to put in, I’ll put in very carefully. Also, when something comes to shake the table on which my jig saw stands, I’m going to hold onto it and make sure its stable….

My trip to South East Asia represented completing a section of my Jigsaw, and, just like finishing a section of a Jigsaw, made it easier for me to see how to finish off the rest of the Jigsaw. Now don’t get me wrong….my Jigsaw is far from complete (I hope) but little by little. Rome wasn’t built in a day!

Congratulations if you stayed with me through that. Ok…enough talking in metaphors…..

I still haven’t donated to the orphanage I promised to. Don’t let me forget….
