So, everyone's doing GOTY stuff. I thought i'd do the same sort of thing.
But about my favourite things of this year. I'll do a count down of 5, see what happens.
5. Filming crappy movies.
Anyway, it was really fun to make these movies. (Bruno Story was last year. Please, do not watch that.)
Even though they might not be the best movies in the world, i don't think it's too bad for a group of 14 year olds. They were all done for school though, for assignments etc.
My favourite's MVM. Detective Goren writing this. ![]()
4. Year 9 Camp
I've talked about it a little, but i had so much fun at the camp. My favourite activity we did was definately the High Ropes. 10 metres up, walking a tight rope with only 2 ropes connected to another tight rope, screaming "I AM PRINCESS PEACH, I CAN CONTROL MY EMOTIONS" for lulz.
I really need to buy Super Princess Peach. I want to do that course again actually, it was so fun.
I think the crowd favourite was the Giant Swing. Let's just say i freaked out. A lot. It's pretty funny actually. Basically, you know the giant swing right? You get pulled up 11 metres up and then you pull a rope and you fall back and forth.
Fun.
But i apparently bellowed in the deepest most demonic voice ever heard at Morrison camp "LOWER GET ME THE **** DOWN LOWER LOWEEEEEER! HIGHER! HIGHER! LOWER! THE PRICE IS RIGHT!"
I can't say i know why i did it. But i did. Lulz?
But it was a really fun camp.
3. Bloc Party
OMFG MY FAVOURITE BAND ARE LIKE 1 METRE AWAY FROM ME. OMFG.
OMFG.
OMFG.
OMFG.
OMFG.
and they were sex.
2. Footloose
(Figured they wouldn't want to be seen wearing makeup and ugly 80's clothes)
This year's school musical. I was in the chorus, which means basically in the background miming. An extra. Even though, it was so much fun and i'm looking very forward to next year's, Oklahoma.
And the after-party was certainly eventful too. ![]()
1. America for a month.
In May, i went to America. New York, Puerto Rico, New Orleans, Vegas, Los Angeles, San Fransisco, Hawaii.
The best was definitely New York. I was there on my birthday. It's such an amazing place and i loved every second i was there. We spent 10 days in the best place in the world, and it was all OMFG XOXO You know you love me gossip girl. (Has anyone seen that show? It's horrible)
Highlights:
seeing a woman miss a taxi so she started dancing in the middle of the road, almost got hit, ran to the other side and then started dancing again. That was so awesome, she had groove.
Going to MacDonald's in times square at 3am in the morning, with all the gangsters around. One woman was making this huge deal out of missing chips and it was the funniest thing i'd seen in my jet-lagged memory.
Going to a Broadway show, seeing central park, Coney Islands moving Ferris wheel, The Subway, Seeing a Yankee's match and watching them be slaughtered, Randomly being in the audience for Total Request Live, Getting lost from the family in times square, going to Madison square garden to watch a basketball match and eating really weird shaped chips, being omfglulzwtfbbq'd at every moment, seeing the Statue Of Liberty up close and just exploring Manhattan.
Basically every moment was a highlight. I'm definitely going back.
Everywhere was mind-blowing in some way and overall, i give this year a 10.
Yes that's right, this year was AAAAE! Because it was exclusive to me. So take that System Wars.
Comments
You went to Melbourne?!
That Bloc Party concert would've been awesome if they were Oasis!
Let me know if you ever come to Chicago.
Ragh: You so kind!
Foolz: Haha, clever. Numbers: Thanks.. but it was the whole year, not a summer.
Freek: Haha, being lazy's good too. :p
Also, I'd post the lyrics to the only Bloc Party song that I know (Helicopter), but that's too much effort for me. Is that you in the picture JJR?
Also, Gossip Girl is the single greatest show in history - because it's so bad..it becomes awesome. The second season is now markedly trashier and worst than the first...and it's AWESOME.
I thought it would be the OC2.. But it's not. Favourite bit so far that i've seen is "Will it be a threeway? Or a d-day?"
and the bit where the slut puts her phone in the bin for some reason.
Turbo: Wall-e?
Thebison: Thank you, good luck in 09!
Raghs: You + Oasis = love.
Mjc: Thanks, and i look forward to your blog.
