BIG DAY OUT AND CHUGGING COKE

(ONE OF THE STAGES)
Hello Everyone!


I know that it has been a little while since I've updated but you must understand I have been really busy! I've been settling down some and figuring out things here at the house. It's amazing what little things one is not used to and that you have to ask how everything works and where everything is.

Alrighty so...Wednesday was Australia Day. In Brianna's words it's where "adults take the day off of work and get pissed." (drunk) Sounds like Fourth of July to me!
Anyways..we went to Brianna's friends party (Brock Nelson) and had a bit of fun there. Hung out and ate sausage sandwhiches where I again explained to them that America puts sugar in our bread and it's ketchup, not tomato sauce!

I've been meeting a lot of people too. Nicole is becoming a good friend of mine. Gotta love that girl. We relate to eachother a lot and really have a good time together. :) speaking of good times, after Brock's party, me, bri, and b crashed Grangus's party (Brianna's brother) and watched everyone drink copious amounts of Vodka cruisers. (the drinking age is 18 over there) It's all good fun counting the number of times people spew. Bad decision of the night: Chugging a coke. 'nuff said.


We then traveled on down to Bec Melrose's (cousin) and spent the night in anticipation of Big Day Out, which I will explain later. MJ (Madjono everyone), Bec, Bri, and I all watched some trivia type shows. One was really good actually, they had music experts on the show and the host asked them questions and so forth. If there was a celebrity expert, I would do it on Audrey Hepburn. I would so win!

Woke up the next day to these really REALLY annoying birds and then we all headed down to catch the train to the Big Day Out music festival.


Big Gig. 7,000+ people. Big Day Out 20,000 people+ Now I could be wrong with this, but let me tell you. There were soo many people. Ohh my goodness. The heat was intense. EVERYTHING WAS INTENSE. Soo freaking crazy!!!

We saw The Vines, Crystal Castles, Gyroscope, Bliss n Eso, HELL TO THE FREAKING YA WOLFMOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, MIA (fantastic performance), Bookah Shade, Angus & Julia Stone, John Butler Trio,etc! All in one day. My body is so sore from this experience. Everyone was amazing. We even did Silent Disco. I really really want this to come to the states. You get a pair of headphones, you go into a giant room full of people, and dance to whats on the headphones. You get two to three channels of music to pick from and there is a DJ running all this. How freaking cool is that!!! I think the group of us spent three hours in there dancing. It was so cool! Soo cool!! I want that to come to USA so bad. I had such a fun time.

I have never been to a better concert, music festival in my life. And it was well organized too! Food and beverage places, police dogs sniffing for drugs, first aid stations, theme park rides, barricades to hold back a mosh pit surge or stampede, bathrooms, and cheap water. But dont get me wrong, there were still drunk creepers and guys wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to old for me.

All in all, it was a great day. I was second row for Wolfmother (suck on that Kyle!), MIA let people dance up on the stage with her, a ride that scared the f*** out of me, good dancing, and great people. Gosh I love Sydney!

Anyways..I'll update some more later. If my followers (do I have any??) want me to include more detail in my postings, I will! Just let me know. :) More pictures to come!

Got my uniform today too! One dress, two shirts, two skirts.

LOTS OF LOVE, I am missing you all.
