TRIVIUM

Last night would have to be one of the most amazing nights I've had in a long time.
I went and saw Trivium!

Okay let's start from Saturday. I shall speak about my most amazing weekend.
On Saturday I had work in the morning 7am-11:30am.
After that, I had an 21st. It started at 2pm, I only stayed an hour.
Then I went home and dyed my hair.
After that, I went to the city to meet Irene and Ellie.
When I met up with them, we saw a Granny Scooter charging!
It was plugged into a power point and all! So funny.
Also we met some random named Saxon from Perth.
We went to Fowler's to see The Temps play.
They are an amazing local band, go check them out.
After The Temps played, we went to town, and went down this dark alley, where there was supposed to be pancakes. I have this all on video if you do not believe me.
Later, we went to the pancake kitchen and ate.
After that we just wondered around town 'til we had to get picked up at 11pm.
We decided to go look for Matt Heafy from Trivium since they would have been in Adelaide.
We never found him.
We did however see Nicky from Dangerous! - another local band.
Ellie was very happy to see him. I didn't even know it was him, and I had just yelled out at the group of randoms "YOU'RE NOT MATT" and then Nicky turned around.
Then after we got picked up and went to Ellie's for a movie night.
We watched Ace Ventura. Well only half an hour of it, because me and Irene fell asleep.
Some movie night that was.

Now it is Sunday.

We got up at about 10am, around about there.
Didn't have a comfortable sleep though.
Kept on waking up, and moving around.
Must have been nerves because of TRIVIUM!
Trivium were playing that night!!
Irene didn't get a good sleep either, neither did Ellie.

I did however have an interesting dream.
'I was on Trivium's Myspace listening to their songs and I saw that their songs had changed and that they'd added a whole heap of new songs I'd never heard of. One was called Don Don. So then I decided to YouTube the video clip to Don Don. I clicked on it, it loaded and it was Linkin Park singing it.' Then I woke up.
So random, oh and I was sleeping next to Irene and she also had a dream about Linkin Park. Now that was funny.

After that I went home, had a quick shower and got dressed.
Then went back to Ellie's to pick up her and Irene, so we could go to town.
We had lunch, ate sushi, and for most of the day we were looking for Matt Heafy and the rest of Trivium.
We also met up with Saxon.
Okay this day was a very long one, and tiring one and fucking amazing one.

We had lunch, then for most of the day about 1pm-5pm was us just walking around the mall aimlessly, looking for Matt Heafy, yelling out Matt! every now and then.
We never saw him.
Ellie left at about 3-4pm.
After town closed at 5pm, we went to the McDonalds at the end of Hindley St.
WE SAW KENNY!! We saw him a lot actually. In town, whenever we walked passed him, I yelled at him. Hehe, I was all "Hey Kenny!" He doesn't like us very much.
We ate so much junk food that day.
While we were looking for Matt, we went into any possible store, EB Games, Myer, Hungry Jacks, Off Ya Tree, Falafel House and many many more.
We walked past a Korean/Japanese restaurant name Don Don! That scared me, that's what the song was called in my dream.
Trivium wasn't in Don Don either.

The doors at HQ for Trivium opened at 7:30pm, we didn't want to be at the front so we didn't want to line up early. We sat in McDonalds for almost 2 hours.
While we were in Maccas I saw lots of kids from my school who were going to see Trivium as well.
Said hello, etc..
Also in Maccas, I realised I forgot to take out money so I could buy a T-Shirt.
We went to Subway to take money out at the ATM.
My money didn't come out!!
I was getting so angry, and the subway people couldn't help.
I kicked the machine and then it said, sorry error, money refunded.
Thank god.
Still stressing that I didn't take out any money.
Then we went to some random servo on Hindley opposite Maccas.
Their ATM wasn't working either!!
I was spewing.
Then we made friends with the cashier, and he let us take money out through their EFTPOS.
Usually you can only take out $20, but he let us take out $40.
What a kind lad. When we left Irene said to him "Adorable Asian"
We went back to Maccas for a bit then decided to line up.
It was getting pretty long outside.
Saxon decided to leave us about this time.
Spending 6 hours with us can get a bit hectic.
While we were in the line, we decided to go count all the Metallica shirts being worn because Irene had a friend that said "Metallica fans don't like Trivium"
I am a Trivium fan and a Metallica fan, so he is straight away wrong!
We lost our spot in the line by the way.
So, we went again to the BACK of the line. It was much longer than it was a few minutes earlier.
Waited, waited. We moved forwards heaps, only to realise that we were just being squashed into the car park so we wouldn't block up the street.
Waited some more, then we finally started moving, security guard looked through my bag as we got closer, made the guys next to us empty their pockets, didn't even care about our pockets and we FINALLY went into HQ!
Black Tide started playing while we were outside. They're all like 16 years old!
We went in.
Went straight to the merchandise!
We both bought a new Trivium shirt.
On the back it said "WE'LL TAKE THEIR FUCKING HEADS"
Really like the shirt.
We bought the shirts, then went into the disabled toilet to change into them.
We shoved everything into my bag.
Then we tried taking before gig photos in the mirror, that was god awful.
They're either blurry or white, and not even us in the picture.
We we're like ehh, screw this.
Then we took Myspace photos.
I took one, forgot that the camera was still zoomed in, all you can see is half of our faces, and one eye each, it is hilarious.
We finally got some semi-decent photos, then another hilarious one of us trying to be sexy.
After!! We went inside the main room, Black Tide were still playing, they are quite good, and only 16! So young, and look at where they are now.
They were quite, very good!
We walked in for a bit, then went back out to get water, we also put my bag away with most of our stuff in it. I didn't take my camera out. I was scared I'd break it in the mosh.
Wish after being in it, would have been a definite yes!
We wet back in, went to the main floor, found a decent spot to stand.
We didn't go into the pit for Black Tide.
Black Tide finished, we only saw 2-3 songs, was quick.
Mostly because we missed half of them lining up to go in.
After Black Tide, Heaven Shall Burn came on.
Now they are heavy. They're also German, and they have accents!
When they started pit went crazy.
I had to go in. Irene wished me luck.
I went in not even for a full song. Got bashed bruised, pushed to the ground, kicked in the head and stepped on. Was hilarious. Nothing serious though. Was fun, but then I decided to sit out of Heaven Shall Burn. Only so I could be alive for Trivium.
They were good, they didn't look like a heavy metal band, we thought they were the roadies. But it was them and they were good.
Me and Irene stood on the edge of the main floor on a step, we were still getting knocked over there.
While we were watching, some complete random spat on Irene's shirt. It was disgusting.
I cleaned it off her shirt for her, was yuck.
After Heaven Shall Burn, we went and got some more water. Saw the guys from my school again, was talking to them, asking how we're coping etc.. they were in the pit, they were having fun, going mad.
Then it was time for Trivium.
We went back to the main floor, found a really good spot.
Then some feral guy, came up behind us.
He like came so close to Irene, she could feel him breathing on her.
He was such a feral.
Then he took his camera out, he took a step back, and me and Irene went forward a bit.
He was taking photos of us!! He tried to make it look like he was taking a picture of the crowd.
Fucking wanker, I turned around glared, he took one of me, and he did the same to Irene, but less sus.
He had the camera directly on her, she turned around, he moved camera slightly and took one of her. God he was such a weirdo. Then we ran to the other side, and lost our really good spot.
We moved back eventually after he moved away a bit.
While we were waiting in the crowd they played Pantera on CD, and people started moshing to it.
Like full on moshing, was absolutely hilarious. We joined in for the fun of it.
Then it started to get dark.
Irene decided to go on the outskirts so she could film Trivium's Intro of Kirisute Gomen.
I stayed in the pit. Was ready to go mad.
Irene took a photo of me in the pit.
The lights went dim, then I heard the intro to their show.
Fucking amazing, blue lights, people were going crazy, I was so excited.
Then they all ran on started playing, crowd went fucking wild.
As soon as Matt Heafy came on it was unbelievable.
He is so fucking talented and gorgeous.
Irene filmed the start of Kirisute Gomen, Then she stopped, she could not resist going into the pit.
Was fucking wild and amazing, everyone was off their nut having a good time!
Just so fun, and they sound SO much better live. Now that is amazing.
They just keep on getting better and better.
Next they played Down From The Sky.
That was mad, the whole show was amazing.
Matt Heafy is so talented. So is Paolo and Corey, they were amazing. Then Travis on the drums. He was crazy. I loved him.
Trivium, the whole band loved the crowd. Every time I looked up, Matt looked at me. He did the same to Irene.
There's a photo of him smiling at Irene taking a pic of him.
The whole show was just unbelievable.
They played:

• 1. Kirisute Gomen Play Video
  2. Down From The Sky Play Video
  3. Becoming the Dragon Play Video
  4. Into The Mouth Of Hell We March Play Video
  5. Suffocating Sight Play Video
  6. Like Light To The Flies Play Video
  7. When All Light Dies Play Video
  8. A Gunshot To The Head Of Trepidation Play Video
  9. Fugue (A Revelation) Play Video
  10. Insurrection Play Video
  11. If I Could Collapse the Masses Play Video
  12. Anthem (We Are The Fire) Play Video
  13. Throes of Perdition Play Video
  14. The End of Everything Play Video
  15. Rain Play Video
  16. Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr Play Video

Throes of Perdition was first encore.
Then second encore The End of Everything, Rain and the last song they played was Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr. That was fucking unbelievable.
The whole show, every single song, was amazing. You'd have to understand.
I went crowd surfing twice. Once in Like Light To The Flies, and again in If I Could Collapse the Masses, I think.
Was so fun, so good! Irene went crowd surfing during Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr. During the last song.
It was unbelievable.
Circle pits, crowd surfing, full on headbanging, moshing, did it all. So sore, worth it. Most definitely worth it. The pit is definitely the best place to be.
When a song was about to get REALLY heavy, I heard Matt go "Oh, Shit!" Haha, every time.
He knew the pit was going to go insane. It did during every song!
He said it quite a few times. Was adorable.
Then there's me in the pit, about to DIE!
Every now and then Irene would pop up randomly and we'd both go crazy.
Then when Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr finished, we waited around.
Irene got Matt Heafy's guitar pic. Lucky LUCKY girl.
He gave it to her, grabbed her hand and placed it there.
They loved the crowd, they payed attention to fans. Not many bands are like that.
Then after, I grabbed my bag, and we decided to wait around for them.
So we could meet them.
Gig finished at about 11-11:30pm. We waited for about an hour all up.
We didn't know which entrance to wait at. We were at the back of HQ, then decided to go to the front. Then me being an idiot thought maybe the side. They weren't coming out there.
We wet back, looked down the side alley to the back and we see this crowd of people surrounding something taking photos.
We ran!
Then we saw Matt up in person. So godly. Was just amazing.
He is so tall in real life. Very very fit also. He is so nice!
We met him, he signed our tickets, and we got photos with him, when he signed ours, he smiled at us, gave Irene a cute smile.
I look like an ugly beast in mine. After gig photos, after being in a pit, don't think I'd look very decent. Not many people do.
Except Matt, he looked perfect.
Me and Irene were waiting for a bit to get photos because everyone else was.
Then he grabbed Irene by the waist and pulled her towards him to take a photo.
Was cute. I took the photo, then I got one with him. Ah, so tall. I look like shit in the photo.
Then we let Matt attend to his many fans.
We saw Corey then. Got him to sign our ticket and we both got a photo with him.
See Corey looks like the guy you don't want to mess with, but he is extremely nice.
They all are.
Then we saw Travis in the van, we wanted to go up to him, we weren't sure. Then we spoke to Matt a bit. Then spoke to Travis and got him to sign our tickets. He seemed so tired.
Didn't seem like a people person after the gig.
But Paolo, was a no-show, he wasn't even out there. Trying to run from us! NEVER!
We spoke to Matt a bit more, he told us what time they'd be getting to the airport the day after.
WE GOT INVITED BACK TO THEIR HOTEL ROOM PARTY!
Couldn't go because someone had to go home.
Next time..
They left we said bye, they were expecting us the next day.
They told us when they were coming, and they said come anytime around then.
We left.
Went to Maccas, so my brother could pick us up and take us home.
We went to the Maccas drive through and both got a happy meal each.
Then we both were just so hypo, talking about the whole night that had just passed.
FUCKING AMAZING!!
We had to go past Ellie's house again, so Irene could get her stuff.
She lost Matt Heafy's pic!
In our car! We were searching for ages, and it had dropped inside the seat. We were going to get a knife and cut open the seat if we couldn't get it.
FINALLY got it out!
I'd be spewing if I lost it. Lucky she didn't.
Then we went to Ellie's, told her everything we could in the tiny 2 minutes we saw her for, then we had to leave. It was almost 1am.
Wasn't tired at all.
Then we finally dropped off Irene at her house, and we quickly organised what time we'd meet in town, because we were both going to the airport the next morning to see them again, and meet Paolo!
She went home, then I finally got home at about 1am or later.
By the way, we were just listening to Trivium the whole car ride.
As soon as I got home, I washed up, but I could not sleep at all.
I had just had one of the most amazing nights ever, it is kind of hard to sleep, especially with all that energy.
When I lay down, i started to hurt a little, all that headbanging, getting bashed around in the pit, was all worth it. As I have mentioned numerous times.
Then eventually I slept.

MONDAY MORNING!

I barely slept, was just so filled with adrenalin, best night.
But it was a good non-sleep.
Got up at 7am. Ran into the shower, got ready.
Told mum I was going to be late for school because I was "tired". Instead I was going to see Trivium once again.
As soon as she left, I got out of bed. Showered, dressed, put makeup on, eh the usual shit.
Then Irene texted me at 8am. She was heading for town.
I grabbed all my things I wanted signed, my ticket, so Paolo could sign it, and my Trivium CD, Ember To Inferno. I wore my Trivium shirt, and put on my jacket then walked out the door.
Waited at the bus stop for about 5-10 minutes then the bus came.
Met up with Irene at a Newsagent so she could buy a texta and then it was almost 9am. So we decided to catch the bus to the airport.
We were waiting, then we saw our bus, it was at another stop. Just our luck, we were at the wrong stop.
So we RAN to the other stop which was like 50+ metres in front of us.
Ran across the road, then finally reached the stop before the bus.
Stupid bus got stuck at every traffic lights, we were lucky.
Finally the bus came and we went on.
Sat at the back of the bus acting like idiots abusing people behind us.
Took silly photos, mine's hilarious.
We also were listening to some music, take a guess what we were listening to.
Finally we reached our destination.
Just our luck, all the bands turned up at the exact same time. Talk about timing!
We had our Trivium shirts on. Nothing sus.
Travis saw us said hey. Then we walked inside the airport, through the scanners and sat at these weird chair things.
Paolo was the first to walk in. He said hi to us. We did not recognise him, well I didn't for starters.
Went up to him, asked him to sign our stuff. Then we both got a picture with him.
He's so adorable, he looked so god damn tired. Must have been a late one.
Then Travis came in, we went up to him, same routine, he signed our stuff. Then he's like "Hi, again." He remembered us from last night. Smiled, was cute hehe, he was tired too, they all were, and we got photos with him.
Then Matt Heafy came up to us, Irene was picking up all her stuff from the floor. He hugged me, then he was all "Hey girls." Then hugged Irene. So fucking nice!
Then he was like, "Do you want some pics?" we thought he meant guitar pics, we we're all "PICS?" and he's like, "photos" and we're all, "oh yeah, definitely." Smiled.
Corey also came up to us.
I got Matt to sign my CD and he signed my ticket again, in gold! All the others are in black.
Then I got Corey to sign my things too.
Then we got photos, Irene and Matt, but Corey came into the photo. So it was the three of them.
Gosh they're so tall, or maybe we're just short.
Then I got a photo with them both. Irene accidentally put her finger in the picture but no one will look there much, plus I can crop it out. But that means Corey won't be in the picture.
Ahh, then we had a little chat, asked them where they were headed, Perth. I asked if after Australia they were going home. They said yeah, for a bit. I'm like to rest up. ^^,
Then we wished them a good trip, they had to get ready to leave. They said, thanks for coming
(to see them) They were expecting us!!
Then we left, was sad, but my gosh were we happy. Still can't wipe the smile off my face.
They were happy to see us. They came up to us. Said hi and all! Just a really friggin good weekend. Won't forget it ever.
Then me and Irene went to catch the bus back into town. We caught the right bus, BUT it didn't go in the right direction!! You can't tell at this bus stop either, so we had no clue.
We ended up getting off at some stop in the middle of nowhere.
Crossed the road and waited at the stop on the other side. Almost died crossing, cars were going about 80km/h.
There was no bus timetables on the bus stop or anything.
We were waiting a while, then I decided to call up the bus info place to ask when buses were coming. We ended up waiting another 10 minutes until the bus came.
Finally we caught the bus right into town.
Listened to Trivium music real loud on the bus.
When we reached town we went and ate sushi. Saw Irene's mum and told her all about it.
Just so excited. BEST DAY! Two best days of my life.
After, I had to change into my school uniform, so we went in to David Jones toilets, mother's room, and changed. The security guard was too slow to kick us out this time, mwahah.
I wore my Trivium shirt under my school top. Wore the wrong shoes and the wrong jacket.
Could no care if I was going to get in trouble.
Then we left.
I had to go to school, Irene had an assignment to do.
We both went our seperate ways. Really happy!! Then I was alone.
Waited at the bus stop. Went to school. Told everyone everything, well most.
Saw Dion, a kid from my school who was at Trivium, told him I met the whole band, showed him the photos, he didn't believe me. Well he did, but I showed him anyway.
Then that was pretty much my whole day.
Couldn't do much work, was just in such a good happy mood.
Was listening to Trivium the whole day. Then that's pretty much it.

Still listening to them right now! It is the 20th today.
Trivium was on the 17/5/2009 and we met them again on the 18/5/2009

It has taken me 3 days to write this blog! :D

I'm proud. I hope you enjoyed it and if I have missed out anything at all. TELL ME!!

Top: Me and Matt Heafy. Middle: Me in Trivium mosh before they started. Bottom: My signed Trivium ticket.

The night life.

IT'S MAY! (Well the middle of May)

What an exciting month in Adelaide.

Yesterday I did jack all.
Today I woke up at 6am, had work 'til 11:30 then came home.
Now I've been on my ass for a few hours.
Got a 21st today, then going to a gig later tonight. Movie night after.
Tomorrow shall be the most amazing night! TRIVIUM!
Seeing Trivium tomorrow :D @ HQ. Shall be so good.
I'll be completely fucked for school on Monday.
Might just go to the airport that day instead and try and meet the band.
Unless I see them tomorrow, as I will be towning it, and I will be at their gig.

Tonight shall be fun, walking down mysterious alleys. Filming it all.
Youtube!

...and now I have a 21st to attend and I need to dye my hair.
Ciao xx

The devil knows you're dead.

Well as you can tell, I am NOT doing my homework, because I am writing this Blog.
I should be doing a major Physics summative going to like half my grade.
But it is just impossible, I can't do it, and my internet is gay so it's not of much help.
Also, I have to do 2 Greek assignments, possibly due tomorrow.
Then I have a Biology Essay, which should get started soon, not due for a while though.
Speaking of which, I have a Biology practical to do tomorrow.
Maths Studies, I am fairly behind, but I have tutoring now, which is helping me QUITE a lot.
I have a test on Monday, wish me luck.
I am also slightly behind in Specialist Mathematics. I'm up to 3B? Class is up to 3J.
So, a little bit of catching up is needed for that.

Oh, by the way, I have COMPLETELY dropped Legal Studies. Just letting it out there.
That is a huge load off my chest now. Now I can concentrate on my 3/5 suicide subjects and Bio and Greek.

Damn internet! Full of distractions.. and quizzes.
Ew, it is sad but, I got 100% on a Twilight quiz. Hahaha. ^^''

Well now, I miss Italy greatly. Didn't have school work there. Mostly because I was on a holiday. But still!

Now I better get off, and finish this Physics, or my life may be completely fucked if I fail this.

Oh and, I had a horrific experience in town today. Again.
Just saw someone passed out on the ground, with lots and lots of worried people surrounding them. Gosh, I hate seeing things like that! It's not the first time either.. :(

Also, Had tutoring this morning in my Frees. Had a single lesson of Biology, then didn't have Physics as my teacher was away and had frees in the afternoon. So all up, I started at 10:10am and finished at 11:10am. Ahh, was good.

....now for some homework.

Reality.

Well I've had an amazing 3 weeks.
But the reality now is that it's over.

I miss all my friends in Biella and I miss Biella.
It was just so beautiful, everyone was nice and I felt safe.
Now that I'm home, I am terrified.
I hold onto my bag tight, I'm scared someone will steal it.

Being in Italy was an amazing experience.

We started off in Rome, Roma, sightseeing, shopping, getting drunk with Americans.
We did it all.

Next we went to Florence, Firenze, saw some museums, some very nice art galleries. I even saw the famous David statue. I got a photo of it, although that is prohibited.
Firenze was the best for shopping, I loved the markets there.

Then we were off to Biella. One of the most beautiful places you'll ever go to. It's at the bottom of the Alps. Where I was staying, you had a clear view of them, was beautiful.
I stayed in Biella with my host family. They were beautiful and nice to me.
They took me in like another child.
I miss them, I don't like being back into my normal routine.
It's a bit depressing.

Anyway in Biella, we went out to some pretty amazing places, and some pretty fun places.
Cancello, Privellage, Gli Orsi, Via Italia and some other random places.
I have good memories from all these places, hehe. YOU NEED TO GO :)

I'm tired now, and a bit sad.
Think some people are annoyed at me aswell. Bah...
When isn't someone annoyed at me? Haha

Anywho.. I miss Rome, and Biella the most.
I'll be back next year, don't you worry.

La Dolce Vita.

The beautiful life.

I am in Italy. It is so beautiful, you will not believe.

This is my 7th day here.

I am currently with my host family.

Amira and Jasmin are hosting me. They are so beautiful.

I left on my birthday for Italy.

Had a 32 hour birthday, was very very good.

But I was on a plane for most of it. Oh what a shame.

I got to know lots of people coming on this trip.

Some of the people I am with, I had never met in my entire life.

Yet, we went to the same school. Who'd have thought.

I have had the most amazing time this past week.

Was in Rome for 4 day, 3 nights.

The last night, was one of the best nights I had ever had.

We celebrated for my birthday.

^^,

I'll write more later. This is just an update on how I am going.

Ciao xx

Things.

I leave in 3 days. I still haven't packed, plus I just finished doing some last minute shopping this morning at HarbourTown. Still haven't got everything I need yet.
Gosh, I am so excited, yet I am still nervous.
My head is spinning, it has been doing this all week.
Could it be the nerves?

ANYWAY!

I had an amazing night on Friday also.
Went bowling with friends for Akeem's birthday.
So much fun. Everyone either sucked or was good.
It was an enjoyable outing. Some people had been drinking, well most haha.
Full of emotion. It ended at about 12am. After Steven and Liz took me and Ellie home.
Well he took us around first.
We went to Maccas, but on the way there, there was this fat guy in the car next to us.
He's all "I'm cool!" *speeds up*
It was hilarious! His car was also sort of on a slant! XD
We got Maccas, had the best ice latte there :D

Well I have a whole bottle of shit in my room, so I'm going to go have fun. Goodbye.

I know what you are.

Friday the 20th of March.
It was the most amazing night I'd had since Scorcherfest.
Which was 5 days before.

In the morning it was sports day for my school.
So I went and competed. Got 2nd for Javelin. 3rd for Discus.
I was happy. Then I left at 1pm, almost abused my little brothers teacher as well.
I went home, washed up then went to Greek School. Yes, I go to Greek School.
It was fun. I learn AND have fun at the same time!
Who'd have thought?

After at about 6pm, when it finished, my brother picked me up, and dropped me off STRAIGHT to Fowlers Live, so I could see Stealing O'Neal.
They are the most amazing band!

Meanwhile, at Fowlers I was meant to meet up with some friends.
But they weren't there yet. They came 10 minutes later which was good.
They had Red Bull, but didn't give me any :(
We sat down for a bit, and then a little while later we see Chris skate past us, with his hair all short and nawww ^^, with his oversized t-shirt on. It was so random and cute.
Anyway, they (Ellie, Irene) had made custom shirts, really unique ones, which only THEY had, of course.
They said; Stealing O'Ryan and Stealing O'Chris. Ryan, for Ellie. Chris, for Irene.
I had taken my camera out, and we were just laughing about something. I think we imagined something hilarious happening, like Irene jumping into Tom's car, and him opening it up to find her in one of his drum cases. Haha yeah, I think it was that, maybe something else.
(Well it is us. We can think of ANYTHING.)
They were trying to pose with their custom made shirts for the camera. They could not stop laughing. If you go on my Myspace, you'll see the many, MANY attempts. They simply could not do a serious photo.
It was impossible. Then again, Tristan was watching them pose opposite from us as well, from Jetpack. Hahaha, he's their own personal stalker you see. They see him EVERYWHERE! But he's cool, he got us posters (H).
After about, let's say 13 attempts, well that may be exaggerating, but meh, we got a serious one. But guess what! My finger was in the photo. God I'm hopeless. Then we got an almost serious one, but you can see Ellie and Irene both trying SOO hard not to laugh.
This all together took about 10-15 minutes to do. Maybe even more.
Okay, we had just gotten the serious photo's done. Then Irene was hungry. So she decided to go rumagging through my leftover Maccas which I left on the floor.
As she picks it up and starts looking though it. Josh from In Fiction, The Miracle Is Now walks out and possibly sees her.
I was all.. "ugh Irene.." *nudges*, she looks up, sees him, then hides. Oh god, imagine what he'd think if he saw her going through my rubbish! XD
Actually, I believe he did see her.
Well anywho, we were bored. We just chilling outside for a bit, doing random things. As usual.
Then we were let inside.
As soon as we walked inside, I saw Tim ^^. God he's beautiful.
He said Hello, How are you? etc... :)
We talked for a little while. Then me and Ellie went to buy one of their shirts, a Stealing O'Neal one. :D Tim asked us what we liked, then his mate served us. He's cool too!!

I know what you are!

It's so cool. I wanted to buy another, but I bought Ellie one instead. I am such a good friend.
Yeah, after that we went to the stage, right side, which I prefer. The other girls don't usually mind.
Then we left to go to the toilet. Our spot won't get stolen.
We come back. It's gone! Damn those girls!
We went to the other side.
Irene was thirsty, she got a cup of water. She came back almost in tears.
The cup she had was just, God.
It was a Red Bull cup. She wouldn't stop drinking the whole night.

The first band to play was The Miracle Is Now. They were not bad.
Then A Year To Remember played, they were good too :D
I left for a bit, sat down, I wasn't feeling the best just then.
Then I went back. Was feeling much better!!
The Mission In Motion was next. They are so cool.
They noticed Ellie and Irene's tops.
Mostly Irene's. The guitarist was all "You" *points to Irene*
She was all "wah? me?" And he went on about, look at her shirt, Stealing O'Chris.
Then he was all, Where's Chris? And telling people about it.
She was happy.
When they finished.

STEALING O'NEAL PLAYED!

They set up, it went dark. Then they came on stage.
Brilliant night.
They had the most amazing set. It was just a good show to watch and hear.
when they came on, I decided to go on the right side towards the front. But no. Sam was in front of me, not even moving one bit!
He looked bored shitless, then why was he even there!!
Ohwell, I got some amazing photos from where I was standing.
Was just so amazing.
Oh and they did an ENCORE!
They playes Arctic Dancefloor, and Chris was all, "So umm, Hows does it start again?"
Nawww, so cute. Hehe, By this time I was at the front.
Chris sat right infront of Ellie and Irene, and sang.
It was so beautiful.

After their performance.
We went and spoke to the band members :)
I went and spoke to Tim, and got a photo with him, finally.
He hugged me, he said I give really good hugs!
Ellie got a photo with all of them. Even TOM!
Irene got a picture with Chris, wearing her Stealing O'Chris top. He liked it.
They all liked their custom tops. Even Ryan. Chris smiled on stage at them. And Ryan saw Ellies top during The Mission In Motion and smiled.

Oh we also got kicked out of Fowlers like 10 minutes after the gig finished. Stupid security.
So we got photos with the rest of them outside.
We spoke to Tim for a while, while waiting for Tom to come out.
We asked him to get Tom for us.
So when he saw Tom, he called us, and told us where he was. XD

Also while we were outside just waiting. We see Tim randomly being chased by Chris.
We were all... okay then XD
Hahaha, we found out why. So random.
Tim cut himself jumping over a fence, and ripped Chris' top too XD
When they were friends again. All of the band decided to destroy Chris' t-shirt.

Ryan and Jack holding onto Chris on one side, and Tim and someother guy holding onto his shirt from inside a car. Chris tried to take the top off but they wouldn't let him, haha.
The guy driving sped off, and the shirt ripped a bit.
Then they continued ripping it themselves hahaha.
Ellie got this all on video by the way. Hilarious.

Well then after about all of this. We had to leave.
It was very enjoyable and it was an amazing night.

And that is all.

The amazing things.

Six days ago, I had an amazing day with my friends: Irene, Ellie, Yas.
We went to Scorcherfest and saw some pretty amazing bands.
It was pouring down with rain, that didn't mean we left.
It meant we stayed LONGER in the rain, watching The Temps, then watching The FAK.
The were both amazing shows.
Temps were on at about 12:40, while we were waiting we stole, actually we didn't steal, we were given free; coke zero's, red bulls, and strong iced coffees.
Me, being me, drank at least one of everything. Man I had so much caffeine in me.
At 12:40 we saw The Temps, was a really good show, started pissing down with rain on us, but we stayed, of course, and just moved closer to the stage.
Also, leaving behind us a huge pile of red bulls, coke and iced coffee.
Oh no, it wasn't us. *shifty eyes*
Then when they finished, we just wondered around aimlessly for 5 hours.
During which, we signed up for a twister tournament, but never ended up showing up to any rounds.
We were going to play the coke zero team, we would've won easily anyway.
Then we saw Tyson from The FAK, we owed him money, because he gave us our tickets to Scorcherfest in the first place :)
Spoke a bit, then went our seperate ways.
At about 3ish, 4ish? We went and stumbled upon a band called Son Of Dad, my god were they good.
Got there CD and everything now, hehe.
They were just so lively and happy, their music was very enjoyable.
After them, we saw Irene's friend play, he's in a band called Sonny Loveless.
He's pretty good at the drums I must say.
After they played we got hot sexy photos with some coke zero models, we are so much hotter I must say.
At 5:40, The FAK played.
They are so god damn good. We were at the very front.
I got licked on the forehead by Tyson :) Ahahaha.
That was the second time I'd seen them, just amazing.
When they finished, I went and bought a CD off of them :)
After that, we were meant to leave, but we stayed, the bus wasn't going to show up anyway.
So we saw The Beards play, and oh boy are they HILARIOUS!
All their songs are about beards, and they all have beards! Ahaha.
Then we said goodbye to whoever we met, whoever we spoke to and got picked up and went home.
Oh the joy! It was an awesome night.

The simple things.

Friends, they mean a lot to me. We meet lots of different people together, for instance, Viv. A poor innocent guy, just doing his job working at the cinema, made the mistake of telling us his name. But, in the end, he didn't regret it. :) Another thing with this 'friends' business. 

HOW THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO TALK TO THEM WHEN MYSPACE DOESN'T WANT TO WORK! 

Poor Irene, probably crying right now. Ahhh, the drama. 

On a different note, Irene, Ellie and me pictured above (as well as Mike), saw Eleazar on the weekend at Soundwave! He pat my back, in the In Flames mosh! The Horror, the pain. But In Flames was the most amazing show I had seen this year. It was fucking AMAZING! :) But now i must study, as the girl wants to do well in her studies, and does NOT want to get another 39% on her Legal Studies tests. As that is just plain pathetic.

Now by this point, I pray, that the 'Myspace' is indeed working.

Farewell my dear followers.

 

The days which passed.

Friday night: It was the FRINGE opening. We had GLOW sticks. We took ASIAN photos. We danced like IDIOTS. Yeah, that was about it. Oh, I joke. It was unbelievably fun. We met and saw lots of people we already new. Made new friends, we were like celebrities. Everyone wanted a photo with us. Especially the tourists. It may have been because we had glow sticks around our necks and we were chained together. Whatever the reason, it indeed was a good night.

Saturday night: This was the night of SOUNDWAVE. Soundwave, one of the most amazing music festivals of the year. I got there about 11am, went and saw our local band play for like 10 minutes. Then I walked around waiting until the bands I wanted to see started rocking up and playing. I believe the first band I saw was; 

1. Isle Of Capri
2. Madina Lake
3. All That Remains
4. Jack's Mannequin
5. Silverstein
6. Unearth
7. Evergreen Terrace
8. Underoath
9. Anberlin
10. Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
11. Hellogoodbye
12. Lacuna Coil
13. Alice In Chains
14. Say Anything
15. In Flames
16. Funeral For A Friend
17. Lamb Of God
18. Nine Inch Nails

Yeah, and I walked past alot of the other bands too. I also happened to meet Evergreen Terrace, and they signed my arm. The night was very entertaining and fun, and I got chased by Ellie and Irene because I had their glow sticks. FUN FUN FUN! I also saw my friend from work, he's so cool :)

Sunday morning: Joy, was so hard waking up. I was in so much pain, and had hardly any sleep from the amazing weekend I'd had. But in the end it was all worth it. Couple of the guys from Unearth came in, Tim and Grant from Underoath came in and Kyle from Evergreen Terrace came :) It was so good. Me and Bek were all 'star struck'. But we didn't scare them one bit. That day was really fun. Then I went and saw my friend again, he had fun too :) as we all do.

Something about nothing.

I just heard a new song and I liked it.
I'm going to see it at SOUNDWAVE.

Music, Poetry, Plays, Movies, Books, Pictures.
All a form of art, although I am no expert.
No one is an expert in anything, if it wasn't for other people they wouldn't know anything.

Oh and school. You can't hate your teachers. You know if they weren't there teaching your arses, you wouldn't even know the basics. You probably wouldn't even know how to talk properly.

Now I hear another good song, the music is soothing.
If you are stressed, music is a good way to overcome it.
If that doesn't work, you could always read a book, watch a movie, draw a picture, have a smoke or write a novel. Whatever works for you.

GET SOME SLEEP!

Being sleep deprived is the worst feeling ever, PLUS having to go to school on top: disgusting.
I've finally caught up, and had more time to sleep.

You'll be amazed, with what I know.
La la la la la.

My body is aching.
La la la la la.

SHAME!

Too good.

80% what a good result for me.
I worked so hard, I can only get so much.
The joy :)

So there was this fat man, dancing to a Beyonce song.
Oh and people should go on Urban Dictionary every once in a while.
You never know which new words can be added.

...and that is all for today.
Have to study, because I am way too cool to socialise.

This is no story.

A man, after many years returns to his old town.
He hasn't been there for many years. He moved to another country to escape poverty and war.
As he returns to his old town, he finds it all different, nothing was as he left it.
Distraught, he remembers all his old memories of the town.
He remembers and sees the little trees which were planted when he was young, ignoring the fact that they had grown to over thirty feet.
A friendly man, his old neighbour from when they were children sees him.
He asks him what he is doing back, after being away for many years, living under a different sky, from seeing different things.
The man just tells him what he remembers and how it has all changed.
His neighbour feels sort of sorry for him, as he thought things wouldn't have changed, but him being a kind man, offers to comfort him and give him advice.
"It take's time to get used to, but we'll get used to it together."
