My week with My Chem

Gee TBPID
Still in the "pinch me, I must be dreaming" phase, but I have to get this written so I don't forget anything. This is part review, part me collecting my thoughts and part me trying to work out if this is actually real life or not. 

The day of Auckland's Big Day Out came around a lot quicker than I anticipated- it seems like only yesterday I was starting work in the Big Day Out offices. Quickest 6 months of my natural existence. REGARDLESS I spent 6 months getting excited (technically 4 months because when I started I had no idea MCR were on the lineup) so when the day finally rolled around I was pretty much buzzing, even if I had to be at the venue at 7am. I was a part of the media team, meaning I escorted journalists during interviews, took winners to watch bands from side of stage etc. I also got to escort 20 MCR fans to their meet and greet- which was like herding a bunch of excited cats. I like to think I did a good job of calming them down and making them laugh, especially with my "Now, here's what we won't be doing. We won't be commenting on how tight Gerard's jeans are, asking if they're spray painted on, then licking our fingers and running them down his leg"- definitely broke the ice a bit. 

It's a fairly long story XD )

Nghhhhh

I feel terrible for neglecting everyone for the past 6 weeks or so. Seriously, I've hardly had time to be online this year which sucks SO HARD, and I miss all my lovely friends so much (especially Flossface and Mieem <333). University has been kicking my ASS something chronic this year. I'm taking 6 papers this semester when full time is usually just 4. IDIOT, GIRL. Add on top of that work as well.

Aaaand announcement! I have submitted my application, and if all goes to plan, I'm moving to LA at the end of this year/beginning of next :D I am SO. EXCITED. WE WE WE SO EXCITED. WE SO EXCITED. etc.

Nothing much other than that is happening in my world right now. I met Deadmau5 and the team the other day, if briefly. Quite exciting! I've also applied for a new job which is SUPER exciting; as a junior assistant at a major music promoter here, which is also a record label heeeeeee :D looking good!

And these are the cupcakes I made for easter :3 Happy Easter everyone by the way! <3

And one last thing you are more than welcome to skip over hahaha )

An animation of notepaper shows us the title, ‘Friday’, the production company and our star singer, previously unknown Rebecca Black. She is on the paper! Singing, ‘woo.’ ‘Yeah.’ We transition via a torn away paper animation and she wakes up and starts to sing immediately, her hair, artfully curled and crimped, meant to look like a bedhead, but would probably look fine as her normal hair. This is not the case, as in the next shot she has straight hair. We are to learn that her life is full of life-threatening difficult choices over the course of the video.

She has to have a bowl, we learn. She has to have cereal. Assumedly she is going to put the cereal in it and probably have it with milk, but we never actually see her eat any cereal, which is odd.

People are rushing around as a blur behind her as she stands completely still and looks into the camera, eyes unblinking. She is already ready, the people behind her are probably her family, but we are left to guess at that too.

She turns, it cuts, she’s outside in front of a pole with an obviously CGI sign saying ‘BUS STOP’ near the top. She has to catch a bus, but why the need to add a sign in later? Is the reality Rebecca Black is actually a baby prostitute? The video makes the song tragic, relaying the confused state of delirium that is her life.


Her ‘friends’ pull up in a convertible. These are obviously children, joyriding in a stolen car. She is too confounded to even know what seat to choose in the car. There is one seat left.


After a fade, we see her with these children, sitting in the one available seat, her ‘friends’ probably had to direct her to it. It is Friday. According to Rebecca, we have to get down on Friday. Down to where, she never says. Another mystery.

Suddenly, it is the dead of night and she is in another stolen car with more children, all prostitutes. )

Obligatory Birthday Post

I'm really bummed that someone else stole this from me before I had the chance to use it (I thought it up a couple of weeks ago, and quietly chuckled to myself, and put it in my pocket for this particular post. BALLS). HOWEVER, I'M DOIN' IT ANYWAY

AND BABY I WAS BORN THIS DAY




 


PARTY MOOSE KNOWS IT'S MA BIRTHDAY )

Thankyou to everyone for the birthday wishes, and the presents and the amazingness <3 you're all brilliant brilliant brilliant

IN OTHER NEWS, I'm off to Australia for a 3 week holiday in April, mostly to see Amira and Flossa and Brigs and Jessics <3 (THOCEANIGANS ABOUND!), but also because I have a digital and social media conference to go to. A holiday can never just be a holiday, ever XD 

SO NEGLECTFUL

Jessie J lips :3
I never really was good at this whole posting regularly thing. Sorry 'bout it! XD

UPDATE: As of this minute, my whore cousin is in the 4th hour of her troublesome labour. I have very little sympathy for her, and I hope Madison (yeah, the baby has a name already) tears her vag something chronic. I also can't wait to see what colour the baby comes out. INTRIGUING.

I have a couple of interviews and meetings for internships in the coming 2 weeks, and I'm going to get to work on getting Hurricanes and Suns on TV here now that everyone in the media is finally back from holidays.

On monday I'm making a bunch of cupcakes for all my valentines. I think I need 24 in total XD this is what they look like :3


nothing too interesting is going on otherwise. In 2 weeks I'll be 20 D: THAT'S SCARY.

AMAZING MEME

In My Bag

So many people on here have done the In My Bag meme, and for once, I am leaping in and doing it whilst the meme is still going! PROGRESS.

this is my bag :3 I bought it in London last February, and IDK why, but I love it to pieces.

This is embarassing :X )

He's gone :'(

So now, fortunately, I can move along, right? And there will be no more LJ entries about him (I know you're all relieved)

(I did get a hug as he left. I thought he wasn't going to say goodbye, but he came around to see me before leaving. I guess we'll maybe keep in touch on facebook)

Now onto bigger, better, happier things. Tomorrow I'm going to post a recipe for the most divine spiced apple cake you will ever eat in your life :3

Sorry for being sad and boring. Now I am moving along moving along moving along.

Eeeeep :X

I know I said I'd stop the pity party, but today has been a little hard on me. Negative stuff behind the cut.

NEGATIVITY BE HURR. )

MORE POSITIVE STUFF THOUGH! Tomorrow I'm going to call around all the record labels and get an internship, and put the finishing touches on the gift baskets I need to send to NZ radio and TV. Productive, huh? And I'm about to go have dinner with my high school BFF who has just moved up here and I am SO. EXCITED.

When I get home, as promised, I will read all the LJ posts and comment and spread some love around <33

EEP

Jessie J lips :3
I just wanted to make a post apologising for being a shitty LJ friend over the last... forever.

From now on, I'm going to try and comment on all personal LJ posts on my flist, and try and be a better friend to ALL of you. So if you're reading this, you're about to get a whole lot more loving from Brii XDD

Basically, I'm sorry, but I love you all, AND I think you know that, yeah?

Also, gonna stop using LJ as my pity-party blog. Now I will post recipes and pretty things and inspriational stuff. No need for such doom and gloom all the time, amirite?

ONE LAST THING I'm also going to start sending all of you presents. I just need to get an idea of what you all like by reading your LJ posts XD and then LET THE GIFT GIVING BEGIN! THIS GOES FOR EVERY.SINGLE.ONE.OF.YOU.
