HanzDecember 26 Gush-MeetSaturday 16th of December was my very first Gush-Meet, held at Lake Weeroona. A short summary of the day involves myself, Joanna, Squid, Godiswatching, 5levelsofdata, Cozmos, BelovedGirl and FireBird meeting up at Lake Weeroona for a BBQ lunch. Once everyone finally arrived we spent time eating and bumming around and going on Gush on Cozmos' phone. Finally Squid had to go to some pool thing so we dropped him off and climbed the tower in the park. We watched this lady run up and down the tower over and over... she had so much energy! After the tower visit we ended up doing some quick shopping so some of the guys could buy some clothing to go swimming in. We did that and then Belovedgirl and myself dropped Joanna at home whilst the others continued to the caravan park, where we joined them shortly after. After setting up the marquee between the caravans we went to the parks pool where 5levels, Godiswatching and Cozmos had a dip and some of us (ie: me) managed to get our bottom half soaked without actually getting in the water (and it was discovered I have very ticklish feet) We then headed off to KFC for dinner. From this point Belovedgirl went home and the rest of us (by now there were 4) went back to the caravan park. We watched Hitch, with subtitles, the speakers were too quiet. in a way this was good, as some of us spoke throughout the whole movie. I then went home just after 12 when my sister picked me up. In all, was a GREAT day, was good to meet Belovedgirl, Cozmos, 5level and Godiswatching. Was also good to get out of the house and socialise which is something I hadn't done since school finished. On a final note: ducks go quack, marquees are red, you can fit a person in a marquee bag, and Cozmos is part seal, part dolphin. Anyway, so concludes an extremely short version of my first Gush meet. There was more but meh VGStart of December was VG. Was a good weekend being able to catch up with everyone who I haven't seen for ages, form better friendships with others, that kind of stuff... the usual really.
Was weird being a rover, I had to be careful how I acted around the venturers (well, was really only one) and I was there to work. However, BTRC ended up running the jelly wrestling... which was held at the same time I had the twirling workshop, so I couldn't help out :( darn, what a pity, lol. However, I spent most of the weekend at the Frat Tent with Alpha Theta Rovers "helping out" lol. Although Saturday night disco I actually dia have to work. Rach got a call over the radio to grab a few rovers/leaders and go to the disco tent to remove anyone wearing thongs or other inappropriate footwear as someone had gotten a nail through the foot or something. That was probably the most work I did all weekend.
However, there was some major down points this year, one too many injuries and a devastating occurance. VG won't ever be the same as it will be a reminder to many. Sorry I couldn't be there for you guys after VG, I wanted to be in melbourne with you guys, not to say or do anything, just to be there for you all. my 18thI know I was 18 long ago (23 October) but I'm yet to blog about it... so here it goes.
Yep, I turned 18, was on a Monday, I finished school the Friday before, which was disappointing, meant I couldn't see my friends, also meant it wouldn't be as fun to remember who remembered and who didn't.
Didn't have an 18th, I went out for lunch with my sister and then went to work. Had my first legal drink which I shared with my sister (as I wasn't meant to be drinking before work) however, what we chose wasn't that great so I don't think we actually finished it.... I know I didn't anyway.
Came home from work, had dinner with the family, went to bed.
Wasn't too bad of a day I guess. September 03 Youth Alive 06Youth Alive was last night, and I am going to give an extremely short version of it!
Got there late, missed Best Before and Standing Tall. Heard Simeon, saw Fido (went nuts with them, lol). Bagged out Jesse, told Dean he isn't moving to england. Went and tried to speak to Standing Tall but just as I caught them they were about to go backstage to dump off some gear, so missed them :( Got Alex and Jesse from Fido's autographs, and Simeon.
Reggie Dabbs and some guy called Preston, both were awesome as.
There were a few dance groups, which were okay for hip-hop.
Met two guys called Jackson and Ben who are great! Spent the few hours chatting to them, which is cool. They're in a band and are thinking of coming to Bendigo, yay!!
Bought a Best Before and a Fido badge, a Fido shirt and the Fido DVD... wanted to buy more, but ran out of money, lol.
I met one person from Gush, and quite a few of the Fido Forumers, and the famous Hannah! which was rad as, considering I've stood next to her at a Fido gig before and didn't know it.
Fido wore tennis outfits and old school tennis shorts (except for Alex) oh, and I bagged out Jesse
But yeah, thats a REALLY short version, if you want to know more, just ask and I will answer questions
Who I Am Hates Who I've BeenI watched the proverbial sunrise
Coming up over the Pacific and You might think I'm losing my mind, But I will shy away from the specifics... 'cause I don't want you to know where I am 'cause then you'll see my heart In the saddest state it's ever been. This is no place to try and live my life. [Pre-Chorus] Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it. See that line. Well I never should have crossed it. Stop right there. Well I never should have said That it's the very moment that I wish that I could take back. [Chorus] I'm sorry for the person I became. I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change. I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again 'cause who I am hates who I've been. Who I am hates who I've been. I talk to absolutely no one. Couldn't keep to myself enough. And the things bottled inside have finally begun To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up. I heard the reverberating footsteps Synching up to the beating of my heart, And I was positive that unless I got myself together, I would watch me fall apart. And I can't let that happen again 'cause then you'll see my heart In the saddest state it's ever been. This is no place to try and live my life. [Pre-Chorus x2] [Chorus] Who I am hates who I've been And who I am will take the second chance you gave me. Who I am hates who I've been 'cause who I've been only ever made me... So sorry for the person I became. So sorry that it took so long for me to change. I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again 'cause who I am hates who I've been. Who I am hates who I've been. Check out Relient K at http://www.purevolume.com/relientk August 27 Ha!ha ha ha... well, what can I say... it happened again! What luck, what joy!! When didn't I go with my gut instincts? Why haven't I learnt? I should have known better, I DO know better... but why don't my actions follow what I know? Why do I build up this thing called hope, when I know it will never happen? Why am I one of the boys? What am I meant to do, change and became a skank like everyone else, to prove I'm not one of the fella's? I don't understand. August 22 UpdatesWell, I know I haven't posted for a little while, so what's been going on?
Not much really, been bowhunting and to the uni open day, had a few 18th and what not.
Went to Melbourne with choir for the state finals of the ABC choir comps, which we won.. YAY US!! Unfortunatly we didn't go on to nationals coz only 3 choirs progressed and there's like 5 or 6 state finalists. But it was cool that we won states, especially being against Australian Boys Choir and a private girls school choir from Melbourne.
Anyway, not much else to say from my side, so I'm off
