The Twang – Took The Fun
According to my weather extension on Firefox, its 20°C/68°F out. That’s actually the warmest that its been in SO long. For the past week its been tops of say 15°C/59°F and wet. Not cool.
Anyway, its been the holidays. Which is cool (in both senses, I guess haha). Monday I went over to Dillan’s & we watched the first 4 episodes of Misfits – I’m making him watch it cos I love that show more than myself, but he did say it was cool so I don’t think he minds it too much haha. We were meant to finish it but he got pretty sick over the past few days, so we couldn’t. It was really shitty that a whole week of his was lost, but it was all good (for me at least) cos on Tuesday, my best friend Jess (who lives 2/3 hours away) had come up for a visit. We didn’t get long together, and we were only in the local shopping mall, but my god do I love her and it was brilliant catching up. We bought a bunch of magazines (as in I got 3 – Empire, i-D and NO) and sat in the park and chilled and ate (well she did, I ran out of money haha) and it was really great, only she had to leave early which wasn’t so great. But as it turned out, my other friends Shivani and Naomi were in the shopping complex too, so I saw them & ended up hanging out with them. They were looking for clothes for some goth-themed party, so I helped them all I could. We even randomly went into the city for a bit, which mixed things up a little haha. I don’t know, it was nice being with them, we had a lot of interesting discussions.
What else happened in the past week? Not much, Wednesday I spent relaxing, Thursday the same – although I did go to the hairdressers (very little change, just a few multicoloured (as in blonde, red and black) highlights/lowlights in my hair – very subtle though so you can hardly tell I’d been). Friday I did homework for a bit (1000 word report on the liberation of Auschwitz… depressing) and then more relaxing. And so you know, relaxing = IT Crowd, basically. I watched the new stuff the other day (as in, Season 4 EP 1 & 2) and I’m loving it so far. Shows like the IT Crowd are really good because you don’t have too dramatic plot changes that you’re going to dislike (although if Douglass goes, I’ll be upset), so its always a good laugh. And just cos I’m a girl and I have to say, Roy’s hair looked a lot better a bit longer, like in Season 2. Just sayin’.
Also, it’d be against my school-break tradition to not have seen a film, so yesterday Dillan & I (who else? pmsl) saw Predators. To be honest, I was never particularly interested in seeing that film, it never really stood out as a film I needed to see, but I went anyway and was pleasantly surprised. I mean, there were downfalls (SPOILERS! predictable storyline, very little plot resolve, a soundtrack which was over-dramatic and out of place /end spoilers), but besides that it was enjoyable enough to watch. Adrien Brody and Topher Grace were GREAT to watch, Topher particularly because he’s not only great in general, but because his character had the most going for him (doesn’t mean I necessarily liked the character personally, but theatrically he was the most interesting to watch).
Oh and we were in Cinema 3 again. Just like we were for The Losers and Robin Hood and The Hurt Locker. 4 times in that theatre that year…
Anyway, long blog is long. Also, I think I should say something about the name thing, so; firstly, thanks everyone for being so understanding and not bitching at me for it, really makes life easier, you’re all incredibly lovely. Secondly, everythings officially changed to “Jess” now, so I’ll be using that, however can still call me Cassie all you wish. Besides, in a few weeks we’ll all forget about it & be used to it. Life does that.
Oh & I changed my twitter username. Follow @1069798 if you’re not already!
