Gamifying Life

8 February 2017 by kristarella Leave a Comment

I’m not good at building new habits, especially good ones. My husband is amazing at building new habits, and I’m not sure how he does it… It seems like he decides to do something and he just does it, day after day, never forgetting, never making excuses. As a society we spend much on motivation, […]

Google Maps for iPhone: woooot!

13 December 2012 by kristarella

The official Google Maps for iPhone came out today! I’m pretty excited. Apple maps wasn’t so bad, if you live in California and possibly inner-city China. I thought the design of Apple Maps was pretty great, I liked the layout of the directions and how you could swipe across to see the next step of […]

Massive day at the #gkrkarate State Titles yesterd Massive day at the #gkrkarate State Titles yesterday. Overall the day ran really smoothly; big congrats to competitors and officials!

Today I went to the Steve McCurry Icons exhibit: i Today I went to the Steve McCurry Icons exhibit: iconic photos by a photo journalist spanning over 40 years. It was beautiful and moving. It is being shown in Wharf 2/3 at Dawes Point (East of Circular Quay), and the building has been refurbished wonderfully: a gorgeous juxtaposition of glass, mirrors, and metal with the original wood. It was an excellent location for this exhibit, which showed so many extraordinary events, but also what is ordinary across several cultures, and what makes us all the same as humans.I really liked how the exhibit told related stories, sometimes from the same locations, sometimes across countries.Thank you @stevemccurryofficial @stevemccurryicons for an amazing display!#stevemccurryicons #photography #photographyexhibition
Saw @steph.t.gray in Les Mis this afternoon! Lovel Saw @steph.t.gray in Les Mis this afternoon! Lovely to spend the afternoon with Karen and Jo, and do something a bit different.

The set design was really clever and the performances and choreography great too.

He probably remembered I was going to go, and I also tried to say goodbye, whereas last week I snuck off while he was distracted. He was crying, and I feel awful. I hope he’s stopped crying now (he usually would have in crèche or with a babysitter). So here’s a bit of a dump of recent photos reminding me that he’s usually pretty happy 🥰#marksymonds
