Hangin' -

Yesterday i met Greer at 11:30 and we walked around town and stuff. The first place we went to, Mcd's, we saw Aimee, Paige, Georgia, Freya and Alicia. So we had some lunch with them :] Then we decided that we'd just hang out with them too ;D We went into jay jays, glassons, etc. At 1pm we went and met up with Mea. Then when we were all around shops, Paige, Freya and Alicia were soo slow at looking at things, and when we went to this craft shop they just wouldn't go, and they kept looking at all the stuff -_-. So Me, Mea, Greer, Georgia and Aimee kept telling them to come, but they wouldn't, so we just walked away to the shops we wanted to go (and we didn't have all day, geez) We went into thee cool cheap Asian shops :D and basically everywhere. We went to the Town Basin again and got some kiddie cones, like Me and Greer did last time :].

Then we went to the wave and the waka again :D And got heaps of really cool pictures there, although, i got cool pictures everywhere else we went :D After thees,  we went to go back so we could get picked up, but then Greer and Mea wanted to go to pak n save to buy some food, so we went there. Aimee and Georgia had to go, so yeh. I bought skof chips, a lift plus, and a kit kat, for only 3 bucks something in total! Whoot :'D

And yeh, that's about it.. it was an awesome day :3

Hangin' With Greer -

Soo, yesterday (12th June) Me and Greer hung out in town :]

We walked around all the awesome asian shops and the $2 shops, and then we got some mcd's, they have these new frozen apple fantas, they are DELICIOUS! :D 

And then we just walked around.. Then we walked to the town basin, and got kiddie cones from the ice cream shop! Heheh, it comes with sprinkles and a lollipop! ;o, it was awesome.

Then, we walked about 10 mins or less to Greer's mum's work, which is this glass bead place which had amazing beads! And then we watched someone else that worked there making some glass beads, which was really cool to watch :p

Thennn, we walked over to the wave and the waka, which is a stone/concrete monument of a waka and a wave. The waka is a waka made out of concrete blocks, with some random stone surrounding some parts of it, and then the wave is thin stone stuck together in a swirly kinda thing, like a wave. :D I didn't know about it till Greer showed me it. Apparently it's where kids smoke their weed. LOL oh well. Me and Greer tried climbing the wave and waka, it was funny as because we failed. especially me. We took heaps of random pictures. ;P And then, it gave me the idea to do another photoshoot with Alyson and Mea at the wave and the waka, coz it's an interesting place and stuff (: 

Anyways, We then walked around town again, basically everything was closed, but mcd's was still open in the strand, just about to close, and greer got another apple drink :P and an ice cream, and i got another ice cream too :'D. Then we went into glassons because it was one of the only shops still open, and then we thought we'd go to the Laurie Hall Park playground coz of thee swings ;D 

There was someone on one of the swings when we got there so we slid down the slide :L

Then the person that was on the swings got off, and we went on and yeah :D

Then we got picked up and went home.

Dare For Darkness Photoshoot -

Okay, so I'm writing this blog pretty late, but yeh oh well.

6/6/10.

Alyson and Mea came over to my house. They both had to bring anything black they had, including some makeup :D

Then they got changed and i put some eyeliner on Alyson, Mea already had some, of course :p

Then we walked up into Kamo and went to mcdonalds for some food, obviously xD. Then we went to Kamo Primary. 

I was the photographer, and i was happy about that :p, because, i didn't want pictures of me posing, and i wanna get better at photography (: 

Soo, we went onto the playgrounds, and i demonstrated to Mea and Alyson some poses they could do. And so they did them :D. I got really good pictures, and then we went to mobil and got some yummo ice blocks ;o. Me and Alyson got choc bars, and Mea got a m'n'm trumpet ice cream ;o!

Then, we went and sat down on a noice bench, and i did some more pictures on there, because i liked thee location xD

And then we got walking again, and yuurrp. We went back to my place after a while, and then Alyson and Mea got picked up. 

Aaaand, we're hoping to do some more photoshoots in different places, because it's soo funn and the pictures look kinda professional, if i may say ;P.

Festival -

Last saturday, was the Twilight Youth Festival at the Quarry Arts Centre. (it's about 2 mins walk away from town.)  It had local and national bands, candy floss & lollies, a lazer tag kinda game, and stuff like that :D

I went with Alyson, Greer, Bob, Alicia and my sister Sam and her friend Katey. 

It was awesomeness. We went to the festival at about 3pm, and walked around, but it was firstly boring because there was gonna be fire shows and stuff when it got dark.

So Me, Alyson, Greer, Bob and Alicia went into town, and we were looking for somewhere to buy some decent food because at the festival there was only tacos and nachos and tbh i didn't feel like that.

But by this time it was like 4:30 or something like that and basically everywhere was closed.. But we also walked all around town when it was basically deserted, it was awesome :L.  Aaaaand, we came across Sam and Katey walking the other way, they were walking to the festival and just coming from town. But then it was getting close to 5 and we wanted to get back to the festival.. Then Sam got annoyed a bit because she told us to get back and we were looking for a food place.. haha it was hectic really xD.

Then we were gonna walk to pak 'n' save, because of course it's open, it's a supermarket.. anyways, it was like 5 or more minutes to walk.. but we finally decided we'd go there. I bought some skof chips and a coke, yummish :3.

We were walking back to the festival and we saw Sam and Katey in Burger King (which is like 1 min away from the Quarry Arts Centre) And so we walked into Burger King. We sat in there with Sam and Katey, then realised Alyson had to go at 5:30 (before it even got dark!) And so we went back to the festival.

Then not long after Alyson had to go :( She walked down the road quickly and we didn't even know she was gone till she was nearly down the bottom of the street, she didn't say bye or anything :/ then we walked down after her, and then we got down the bottom and she was gone :o We got kinda worried actually :/ We asked the security guards if they saw a girl in a pink jacket being picked up and they said no -_- 

Then i texted Mea asking her if Alyson was on msn and she said she was, so it was all good.

Then it got darker and we got out our glow sticks we bought earlier and they had awesome colours ;D

I got some thin ones that i made into a bracelet, and a big thick one on a string for a necklace. Then at 7:30 the fire show was supposed to be on but to fill in the time they had this matariki or something thingy that went waaaay overtime, so the fire show went to 8:30 instead of 8:00, when the festival was supposed to finish. And Bob, Greer and Alicia had to leave at 8pm so they didn't see all of the fire show, and only the good parts happened when they went D: 

The good parts included : A guy riding a lit unicycle, girls hula hooping with lit hula hoops, and a lit skipping rope, the guy on the lit unicycle was skipping over it on his unicycle :o
