Oh my blog, why have I forsaken thee?

I'm not going to spew excuses for not writing in the past month. September seems to have been sucked into a vortex of activity. But on the flip side, think of it this way: I've been so busy living my life that I haven't had time to write about it.

Yes, I just saw what I wrote and yes, i know that was one hell of an excuse.

I've been cradling the Borneo Eco Film Festival (www.beff.org.my) the past few months and finally enjoyed (maybe that's too strong a word) the fruits of my labour last weekend. It was a success and more importantly, I walked away from the event reaping far more than I sowed. It was a great learning experience and while I've never been a certified tree-hugger, I've gained some insight environmental issues plaguing the earth and have new-found appreciation for the art of film making. Ok so I'm not joining Greenpeace anytime soon but I'll think twice before using that extra plastic bag for my groceries. Baby steps. 

So here's to October. I'm dedicating the last few months of 2012 to more writing. And I'm really excited about the year to come. So much to see, so much to do and so much to write. How have YOU been?
