A year ago today, I saw Madina Lake (my heroes) perform live for the first time.
It doesn't seem that long.
Yet, at the same time, it feels like forever.
Since then so much has happened, but one thing's stayed the same...my love for ML. In fact, it's probably grown heaps stronger. It's hard to believe that that was on their tour for FTTUTY...and the next time they'll be here will be for ATE. I can't wait. To see them perform live is simply amazing. They totally rock, no joke.
So, anyway, I'm not going to go off on one soppy little blog for them, God knows I go on about them enough already.
Just wanted to mark this day, and remember the first time I saw them. Such memories. =]
Oh, and today was ok, I just keep wishing I was back at Cockpit Saturday night...loved it. <3
PEACEout. x

What's the craziest thing you've done lately?
Well.
Kill Hannah was...AMAZINGGGG.
Gonna try and give a full account of all the details I can remember. Hehe. =]
So, I arrived at Ellie's about 4 o' clock yesterday, all excited, and we went off to get Kate. Kate was running a bit late so her mum drove us to the train station and we were convinced we'd missed the train..but, fear not (!), it actually arrived as soon as we did. Luckyyyy. Then we commenced on our excited train journey to Leeds, complete with much photo taking. =]
When we arrived in Leeds we went to HMV and then bought onion rings and this mega 16" pizza (yes, they DO come that big) and sat outside the Cockpit. Yummmm.
Whilst there we met these cool peeps next to us who were making fun things out of balloons, which passed the time rather well, and then Mikey from Serpico came round giving out stickers and badges. He was pretty darn impressed with our pizza...we're now the "big pizza girls" yeah. =P
Anywayz, then we waited some more and finally Vikki and Meg arrived and more mega queuing raves were had. =]
Eventually we were allowed in, excited much? Yeahhhhhhh.
Of course, Ellie was at the bar pretty much straight away. Grrrr at her 18ness. Ha. We then joined the crowd and Vikki came and kidnapped me so I lost Ellie and Kate pretty much straight away! LOL. Me, Vikki and Meg ended up on the steps but Vikki's bag was sort of attacking the securtiy guard so we had to get down....not too bad, though, we ended up right near the front. =]
Serpico were really good, deifinitely got the party going. LOL. Yupppp.
Then came mine and Vikki's new passion, our passion: MY PASSION. Oh wow. They simply blew me awayyyyy. Their music was mega fun and they were so awesome on stage...LOL at Simon's facial expressions. =] We wellll grabbed his bass. Hehe.
Next came Exit Ten. Although Vikki wasn't impressed ("I want My Passion back!") me and Meg enjoyed it verrrrry much. When Ryan was holding loadsa people's hands, me and Meg couldn't quite reach BUT he well turned and looked right at us and was like singing to us. And Stuart (I think) kept looking at us and smiling and giving us the rock hands. LOL. We were happy. =]
And then came....KILL HANNAH. They were totally amazing. No joke. And so funny too, especially when Matt was like "The girls in Leeds are strong!" cos we grabbed his t-shirt. Ha. Oh my, and at the end he threw in a towel and Vikki caught it and then this lil kid was trying to snatch it off her. I was just like..."What the fuck is Vikki doing on the floor?" She well won the towel. ;]
I was pretty sad when it was over..but slightly relieved at the prospect of getting some water. =]
That'd have to wait though..we caught sight of Simon from My Passion so went and got photos. I completely embarrassed myself by not being able to figure out the camera phone...but it worked eventually. And he was mega nice. AND he has an awesome piercing on the back of his neck. *nods*
Finally I found Ellie and Kate so went to buy a My Passion hoody, before going outside and getting a photo with Laurence (also My Passion). Then me, Ellie and Kate had to rush 'cos our train was going in 10 minutes. We literally RAN to the station and through it 'til we found the train. Again, we were lucky. As soon as we sat down, the whistle blew and we were on our way.
Back at Ellie's, me and her watched Juno and then went to sleep. =]
I am still smiling now. That has got to be one of the most fun gigs I've been to. It was totally amazing and all the bands were really, really good.
Bring on FFAF! (19th Oct).

Oh wow.
I'm happy.
Yesterday was funfunfun.
Was international hug a vegetarian day so me gots lots of hugs. =]
And Vikki brought me some veggie friendly sweeties. Yuss!
Andand..it was Ellie's bday...so out popped mr cameraaaa!
Ha! I am REAL photogenic....not. ;]
And in the evening, I was a complete idiot. In a laughable way. Totally got confused and panicky and thought that Ellie's bday meal started at 5...so I rushed to get ready in 10 minutes, got in the car, drove, called Ellie to say the traffic was bad and.......the meal was at 5 to 8. As in, 7:55. LOLZ.
The actual meal was rather enjoyable. I have realised, though, that I am far from classy. And heels are certainly not my thing. =]
KILL HANNAH TONIGHT.
Excited much?

I just need something that'll take me away...
I'd throw my heart into your fire, when I was blind
And you knew that I'd come crawling back
And you knew you'd always find me there
But this time some things are gonna change,
I'm breaking out
And I know someday I'll be ok
And I know someday I'll stand again
But this won't be the end of me
Cuz I'm breaking away....
Yeah. =/
Walk home cheered me up. Me and Clive went to Asda and bought samosas. *nods* =]
And Ellie has put me in her MSN name, well made me smile.
Wish Vikki had been at school today...cudda had our usual mega lunchtime raves...=/
Ah well, tomorrow's another day. =]

'Cos my life's the flame...
...in a house of cards.
I need to get better at lying, methinks. *nods* I have a real tendency to drop myself in it. Oh well!
Today's bin another good/average one really, so, at the worry of this blog being completely reduntant, I won't go into every detail. Just the usual hang out, school, hang out. TAG too. Yeaman!
I've decided I should get a life...though, this weekend should be good, even if I do have to wear a "pretty dress and heels" to Ellie's birthday meal on Friday.
KILL HANNAH on Saturday!
And, no...as exciting as it might be to read the blog of some psycho killer with an obscure distaste for the name Hannah, I am not one. They're a band. And me loves. =D
Oh oh, and had a glorious chat with Vikki's mum today. Was amusing. Yup.
(VIKKI got mentioned!..kind of.)
PEACEout. x
EDIT: I well converted two people to the love of ML today - Vikki and Stu are WELLLLLL into them. Ok, that's a lie. BUT, ya know...they will be... =P x

Standing still is criminal...
...and never lasts for ever.
It seems nothing lasts forever these days. My good mood sure didn't. Not that I'm in a particularly bad mood anymore...just contemplative.
Councilling was a little more difficult tonight. But I feel I got way more out of it...things are starting to make sense. I'm worrying in a way that I'm getting in a bit too deep, saying too much...but it's about time I let rip, tbh. This is well gonna work out, I just need to perservere, work at it for a while.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Psychological anomaly...
So, last lesson of the day? Psychology. Relationship topic. LOLZ.
Anyway, I have finally come to the conclusion that I am a psychological anomaly, just one big individual difference. Why has this taken me so long to figure out? Yeah, I don't get that either!
But, hey, don't get me wrong..I'm not all that fussed about my anomalous status. It's actually quite fun. Hehe. Defying psychology and all that.
Today was good. Yes, it was school...BUT Vikki brought me cookies and red bull and we spent nearly a whole free sat on the roadside. It was nice and sunny and then a big truck came past and scared Vikki out of her mind. Nice, huh?
Now I'm officially out of things to say...but, let me off, I'm new to the whole blogging thing. *nods*
More to report later no doubt.
PEACEout. x
P.S - I'm mega psyched that Megan is mega psyched about my blog. =D

The little things...
Today (ok, it's technically yesterday now...) I have realised that it's often the little things in life that really matter, the little things that can really make you smile. Such as:
Vikki giving me monster. =]
Hi-larious in-jokes ("Just for LOLZ!" =P).
Crazy crazy River Person conversations.
Pretty pointless, yet amusing, bulletins.
LividThorn clothing arriving in the post.
Yeah. It's been a pretty good day, if I'm honest. =]

Inspiration. <3
Inspired by my good friends Pandora™ and HayleyAdalia, I am embarking on the quest that is my own blog. I'm not entirely sure how it's going to work out, who will read it, or whatever..but, hey, I'm a writer, it's what I do.
PLUS, I needed something to distract me from my work. Not that I've done any...late night for Eryn, methinks. =/
So hey ho, it's off to work I go...another update soon, no doubt. Blogging seems like it could be addictive. ;-]
