Yeah well just in case you're one of those sorry people with no social life, Clare's 18th was on this weekend. And if you missed it, well... *no comment*.




In a nutshell you missed out on a gggggggggooooooooood~ party. The DJ was really really REALLY good, he played lots of classics instead of R&B all the time, which is a start. And of course Gordon reeling... and people acting stupid (e.g. yours truly)... and watching Clare and Jace dance... yeah you get the picture hey!!! There were ups and downs for different people and different situations, but all in all I had a really good time. And contary to what you may think, I was actually aware of my surroundings ALL the time. So NEH.




And spent all of today basically just watching FMA. Yes I am sad.




Think the song of the night was Bryan Adams Summer of 69... Cos don't you think? The Summer of 69 is now. We're all high-flying now. We're in for the time of our lives.






I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69




Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far




Oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life




Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you




Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life




Back in the summer of '69




Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no




And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong




Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life




Back in the summer of '69
