Back from melbourne at last... i have absolutely no idea where to start. The journey over east brought us experiences i never would have imagined. I can honestly say my life has been changed. I'll go through day by day as its easier for me to remember things that way. If you're bored enough i'm sure you will read through it haha.

Wednesday: we flew out of perth at 4.30pm and got to melbourne at like 10.30pm.. we got to the hotel and an old homeless woman was in the doorway lol a good first impression, then as we were signing in a prostitute walked out. haha.

Thursday: got up and walked into the city, met up with a friend Borry and sat in a pub and drank lots of beer before going across to Federation Square to see Dashboard Confessional put on a free show. it was way too hot but it was well worth it. We met him afterwards, he seriously has to be the nicest guy EVER.. and he has very soft arms haha. That night we went to Goo (an alternative club) with Scott and Borry.. well as much as my ex was a fuckhead that night it was good to see him because now.. i honestly dont give a shit about him. so yeah goo was okay, watched Last Years Hero and then helped them pack up and we went back to the Arthouse with them for more drinking haha we all had so much fun that from that day on we hung out pretty much every night.

Friday: at about 12 we walked from the arthouse back to our hotel room haha very seedy. Some dickhead wogs yelled out at us as we walked past them so megs gave em the finger to which they replied "nice finger, you should stick it up your ass" ahhh nice boys. Borry came over to get some of his stuff that he'd left at our hotel and he told us how he had run a guy over that morning.. this guy was a weirdo who just got out of a mental hospital and he had seen Borry with his ex gf and so jumped on the car Borry was driving... how crazy is that. That night i think we just stayed in our hotel room... i think .. i so cant remember that night for some reason haha.

Saturday: walked around the city and did some shopping. in the afternoon we met up with my friend Duane and went to a metal show (coz he plays in the band) and yeah that was pretty cool.. we were very impressed with them. after that we caught a taxi to Switch (a punk club) and fuck that was a good night. bourbons were $2.50 for a while so you can imagine how many of those went down quickly haha. i was pleased to see people there whom i hadnt seen in a while it was cool. i drank way way too much and prolly made a dick of myself. i made out with someone,who for a while now i've had a secret crush on hehe.. that was hot. me n megs danced to Last Years Hero haha. we drank more and then headed out with the lyh guys... i ended up sitting in the emergency room of a hospital for about 4 hours with Mike.. he cut his hand open pretty bad. fuck man i've never seen a doctor give someone so many needles... eugh. i stole a blanket from the hospital haha yay.

Sunday: i slept for half of the day considering i'd been awake all night and morning.we lined up for the dashboard gig and we were so hungover that we were making the stupidest jokes.. funny stuff, i think all the little emo kids thought we were crazy. we were so tired at the show that we sat and slept when the 2 support bands were on haha woke up and watched dashboard... a fucking mazing!. me n megs headed back to our hotel and lay in bed watching t.v we were nearly asleep when ryan called and asked us to go over and hang with them again lol so we got dressed and headed to our second home.. it was all very casual, watching t.v, playing chess and skip-bo haha, ryan made a very impressive goon mask! then someone suggested we make a ouiji?? board... so we did... that started what was the most amazing night ever. nothing happened at first and there was a lot of joking around thanks to mike and cam lol. then we started to get serious, i can't go into the exact events as its too long to explain and they are quite personal but.. we got into contact with a few people who had been close to us. every single one of us was just in awe. we had started that at like 12 and we didnt finish til 5 in the morning.. when we had to go down to the basement to pack up the band stuff... haha we all ran down the stairs freaking out. i'm so glad i had someone to cuddle that night... scary stuff.

Monday: once again we slept all day and then headed back to our own hotel. we went into the city and met up with megs friend, had some food and did shopping. that afternoon we decided that the guys would appreciate our dashboard tix more than us (seeing as we'd already seen him twice) so we sent ryan and mike to the concert. just as theyd left our hotel room to go to the show.. i got a call from mike saying that a girl had jumped off the fourth floor balcony of our hotel and killed herself, he had seen the cops outside.. there was blood and a shoe on the pavement.. now THAT is fucked up. we were all a bit freaked out about it. anyhow after the show finished we all got drunk. cam drove us to get some HJ's and he was so pissed, just as we parked the car and got out, the cops pulled over and breath tested cam... we were like "oh shit" but the breathalizer didnt work?! haha nice save.back at the arthouse we attempted another ouiji board.. i can tell you now that alcohol and ghosts do not mix well haha. it was a failed attempt. all that resulted was mike and cam having a big argument about who knows more about ouiji boards and just shit... cam and mike had a punch on it was quite amusing coz they were so aggrivated and then about 5 minutes later everyone was laughing. they dropped us at our hotel at 4am and we had to get up at 6am to catch our plane back to perth haha.

Tuesday: woke up at 5.30am from an hours sleep and packed our shit and went to the airport only to realise our plane was leaving half an hour earlier than i had thought (i read the ticket wrong) we missed the flight, luckily we got on another one a few hours later. that was the most fucked day of my life... i was so goddamn hungover and needing sleep.. but i had to sit on a plane for 4 hours... i felt like i was on smack or something, it was bad. thats what you get for staying up all night and drinking for a week.

Funny Quotes:
don't you hate it when your hungover and you try and say something but it comes out wrong.. me and megs did just that.. it provided lots of laughs..
jaz to meagan: "omg i am so hot" "touch yourself"

meagan to jaz: "do you wanna go down while i'm in the shower? 
this is cute because mike was actually trying to be serious...
mike: : "if there are any spirits in this room who wanna hang out with us and talk, get into this glass, you can have a couple of minutes to think about it"
(a couple of minutes to think about it?haha anyone would think it was a game show)
Random Funny Shit

Cam and Mike arguing like little kids about the ouiji board.. "dude get your elbow off the table, the spirits dont like it!" "man that was a stupid question, you can't ask questions like that!" "FINE YOU ask the questions then!" "FINE i WILL ask the questions!" "what are you, the spirit master or something?! you think you know everything!!"

To finish this entry... i just want to thank everyone who i spent time with over east.. it made the trip so incredible, i was very sad to leave i'm gonna miss people. The memories from that trip will always stay with me, great times!!! I feel i have made some very good friends and i can't wait to have more fun times in the future..

♥ you all, Jaz
