Its not what you know, its who you know...


Rosita rose to fame here in New Zealand when she won New Zealand Idol in 2005. She continued in her music career releasing an album titled: Golden which peaked at #15 in the NZ Music Charts. Her single: All I Ask reached #1 on the NZ Music Chart and made 2 x platinum certification. She is performing on 1st March 2008 at Out in the Square in Wellington.

I was privileged to have been involved in making the most recent music video for Rosita Via. I was honoured to be 1st Assistant Director, it was interesting, fun and stressful but I gained a lot from the experience. I really can not wait to be involved in another music video.

monogamy




monogamy
(mə-nŏg'ə-mē)
n.
  1. The practice or condition of having a single sexual partner during a period of time.
  2. The practice or condition of being married to only one person at a time.
  3. The practice of marrying only once in a lifetime.
I think it is interesting the amount of people that I meet that do not grasp the concept of monogamy. I guess this falls under the same catagory as my love post, it is a hard subject to grasp if you are foreign to the concept.

I was having lunch with a group of friend, and I happened to enter a conversation with someone who I had meet that day, about the type of guys I am into. This conversation go very heated, he then mentioned that he and his partner have an open relationship because thats what you do when you have been together for 10 years.

I was completely shocked at the statement made, I really wanted to make a conservative statement, but thought best to bite my tongue, than sour an already rocky friendship.
People are entitled to their own lives, opinions and values, and I should not be telling people how to live their lives.

I am a firm believer in monogamy, if you are going to have a relationship you stick to it 100%
what is the point in being in one, if you don't reap the rewards and benefits of it.
I can think of nothing more passionate than being intimate with one person, as sick as it sounds it is enough to get me going.
