I was at UQ for a while B) And my bro just grad from there too...
Do you go to Hope Brisbane?
If you do, I left Paul (Ps Wilson's son) a magic book before I left so he might be a budding magician now....if the interest had substained. B)

:P Yea.. he tells me about u. But he can't do lots of the tricks in the book. He claims he is a magician... but when I ask him what tricks he knows... he can't tell me anything.
Haha!

Oh ya.
Apparantly... I arrived in Brisbane the semester you left. In Judah 1 too.
Your reputation preceeds you my dear!!!

I think I managed to teach him the 21 card trick before I left. And a simple mental magic card trick. But I'm not sure if he'd be able to name them.
Try asking him to show you maybe? B)
And it's really nice to hear that they still remember I can do a trick or two. :lol:

Be sure to bring back some rubber bands when you return to Singapore. I've seen the bands they use in Australia and they are so much better than what Singapore is using.

Talking about bands... I was just watching "Off The Cuff" DVD. Can't wait to start practising. What sort of bands do you look for?

Those bands that are gold in colour. Something similar to
this.
