I really really really want a Digital SLR Camera. Nikon D70 maybe? or the Pentax *ist D?
I thought i would be more sad today. You see, today was going to be the day that i would see Ben Lee perform a full set. Except tickets sold out pretty quickly. And i didn't get one. Then they also sold out for tuesdays show too, and i managed to not get tickets to that either. Poo.I thought i would be really depressed feeling today, but i am obviously not, as i can freely write about it. although, i am feeling a bit down now because i am writing about it but hey, it was to be expected.
The main contributer to my non-depressed-ness... is the fact that i will be meeting the little man himself tomorrow. YEY FOR ME!!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!! But i feel so guilty about it. I have lied to my parents about what time it is, i told them afterschool, when it is right smack bang in the middle of Music, IT, English & Brass Ensemble. Also i told Maddie that i didn't want her to come, but she insisted so now she is living under false belief that i am not going. And i feel guilty about telling my teachers and band members that i was going to an optometrist appointment. Except for Ms Hall - Salona told her that i was going to meet Ben.
Today i went to a psychology lecture series at Monash Uni. The first 3 lectures were really good and interesting. But the last one we walked out of as it was useless and our rides were waiting for us. We got a JUMBO set of notes which will act as my bible up until June the 7th, which is when the mid-year examination is. *groan*
After that i went to go see a friend of a friend and his friend play at a seedy little joint in the city.
It was almost as seedy as the ally you walk down to get to the ding dong lounge. now that was seedyness at its maximum. The gig was really good, but again, i left before the end as it's a school day tomorrow. Jack, the friend of a friend (and his friend was called Gavin - and he was a bit of alright!!!) played guitar and sang a bit. That made me feel sad - made me remember that just a few kilometers away Ben Lee was probably warming up ready to play an awesome performance and blow his audience away. Jack and Gavin didn't do much of the blowing of the audience. hmmm... that sounds a bit... grotty. - but the show was still good, and so was the company. (excpet when it left to go do a guest appearance!!! AND IT LEFT ME ALL ALONE WITH THE WEIRDOS IN THE SEEDY BAR!!!!)
I can't wait until tomorrow!!! IM MEETING BEN LEE!!!!!!! i didn't realise how excited i was until i saw that i had doodled (with divided attention) ben lee doodles/drawings (don't take "doodles" in another context) all over my notes.
Check it out. =>
