so melbourne and the big day out were pretty fucking cool.
it god of to a shite start, what with me having no money, and my flight being delayed bu like 2 hours, but it went well. and flying is SO MUCH FUN. Like i thought it might be scary, but no way it was the best!!!! the only bad point - there was this totally hott guy sitting in front of me the whole way and I never noticed. why couldn't have he been in my row instead of this dude who kept trying to talk to me, despite the fact that a) i had almost no voice left thanks to my cold, and b)I so was not interested.
But I got there, and kat and her anunt were waiting, and it was so awsome to see her again, so we went back to her aunts place, and pretty much just watched TV for a while then crashed. and then on saturday we got the tram into the city [and trams are also fully awsome] and shopped for a while. and the myers there is SO HUGE. and in the bottom it had this bit called the basement with all the like young people clothes and stuff, and it was so awsome. they had the best shoes and tops. I got 2 buttons, cos they were sweetness.
so then we went into a few more shops, including JB, where i got the new franz ferdinand album. which is also sweetness. and sadly, there were not hot guys in the punk/alternative/emo section. and i was like "wtf? this is JB? and the punk/emo/alternative bit.. where are they?" cos every single time i've been to JB. and it doesnt matter which ones, there has been pretty boys for the checking out, and this time. none.
anyways, we went over to the crown and went though the casino, but we didnt end up gambling. we were gonna go back later that night but we never got round to it. so we looked in the super-expensive shops they have there, and went and watched memoirs of a geisha [which was good] and stuff. then we were gonna go out somewhere, but kat brought so much that we had to go home first, and by the time we got there it was nearly 10, and sarah, one of the girls from uni who lives in melb texted us backing out and all, so we just couldnt be bothered.
Sunday was the big day out. and it was greatness. it took us FOREVER to get there tho, cos all the trams were so packed, and the line to get in went for fucking ever. but we didnt take bags, so that was quicker. we got there like ha;fway though fakers set, and then after calling hutchi like a million times and getting no answer we ended up seeing him in front of us, so then we all went and saw the subways. who were awsome. I must get my hands on their album... anways, there was a little mini mosh so me and hutchi and his friends jumped on in. and i lost kat like straight away. turns out she cant hack a decent mosh either. dammit. I dont get it, im like.... tiny [tinier now i've lost some weight, even sam noticed]and it doesnt scare of freak me out at all. I LOVE IT. appart from the sweat, but I can deal. freakin pussies. yey for male friends!!! anywas, some tool stoof on my shoeslace, and that came untied so my cons almost fell of. anfd then I fixed them and it happened again, so I left to find kat. which I did eventually. and we got food. and alcohol. and they had icies that were like vodka. best ever my friends.
so then we saw more bands and ate more and drank more. and I got really sunburnt. we saw wolfmother, the living end, end of fashion, franz, the white stripes, faker, magic dirt and the subways. we didnt stay for all the full sets though, and for magic dirt and half of franz we were in the beer garden type thing so we could hear it heaps still, but not see.
during wolfmother there was like this power-trippin security dude who kept spraying the water over us. like i'd be, no dont dude we're fine, its not that hot and he'd spray it like right in my freakin eye. god he was a pain in the ass. like peopl;e had phones and stuff, and he could have completly fucked them up. next time im putting mine in a zip-lock bag like this dude next to us did.
um yeah. im bored of typig now so im gonna warp this up lol.
sunmday we shopped again. there was a converse outlet thing. like 50 bucks for a pait of high tops dude.,.. pity I had no money. kat got a red pair though. after the shopping we went back to her aunts, and they dropped me at the airport, were I had like 2.5 hours to kill. but I looke daround the shops and all so it was alright. On the flight home I took several million pics of clouds, cos they were so PRETTY.
Today sam came and visited me, cos shes staying on the centeral coast right now. it was cool, we went down to the lake for lunch and caught up and bonded and stuff.
and thats about all...oh and I GOT INTO NEWCASTLE!!!!! oh yeah. I mean, i'd prefer to go to sydney, but the money just isn't there, and i wasn't reall up for defering. so newy works too. :D
