Holga Photography
Holga is a vintage toy camera but it does take some amazing shots, take a look at this holga photography site. The holga cameras are available on eBay for something like $50 AUD with mods, different lenses etc. I think my friend told me that a glitch in the camera brings some unintentional effects some of which can look awesome. For examples try electropad.net - a vintage photography site, a personal portfolio.

I won $$$$$ on horse betting!!!
I never had much luck with... pretty much everything but I just made a bet on a horse through a horse betting site - I only put $20 but this time I tried this thing called 'trifecta' I had to get the first 3 horses right... so I made a $20 bet for... starting from my favourite number 7 - horse 7, horse 8 and 9... and voilà!!!! The horse betting odds were 82 to 1, so I made $20 X 82 = $1640!!! So here I am waiting for my first check from an online horse racing win... Infact, a first sports betting win ever in my life :) I guess they call this beginners' luck!
The legendary Akai MPC series and my MPC 2500!
The MPC 2500 is the shit, you just can't beat the hands on feel of making beats on the MPC, this isn't something FL Studio can do. I guess the best bit of the MPC is the swing, the groove. Others have emulated this but I can't make any songs without tapping it out on the MPC. I tried the MPC5000 the other day at Alan's music store, it seems pretty dope but there's too many features I won't be using like 4-bus effects, 12 Q-link controllers... That's why I love making beats on my MPC 2500, it's got everything I need and nothing I don't need :)
