Whats your name?
Over the past few weeks I've seen this girl in the Moon who went to my school, she was in the year above and did drama productions with me, but I never learned her name. She saw me the other week, smiled and waved, so I returned the favour. Tonight she pulled me aside and said the whole Josh! blah blah thing, took a picture with me and we went our seperate ways. I had the biggest crush on her in school, and I can't stop thinking of her, which is really annoying because I can't think of her name at all... fuck.

Reading 09; Chapter 2
I had my interview for Barnet on Thursday because I was unprepared on Wednesday, I did no work what so ever. I'm not gonna tell you everything that happened in the interview, but I got accepted to Barnet college, which I'm happy about, my interviewer wrote "Some interesting work that would definitely benefit from creative knowledge and skills" on my report, this made me smile. Anyway, carrying on:
Where was I? Oh, yeah, I just named everyone who stayed with us. I wasn't drinking on Thursday seeing as I didn't have any beers, so I stole a few of Joe, and sat around the camp drinking and talking. Thursday was the day where the bullying on Joes tent began. Toby was writing stuff all over it like "Free drugs", and I got involved by writing silly stuff like "Maddy lies here!" and shit like that. Nothing really happened on Thursday, so I'll fast forward to Friday. I woke up and spent most of my morning begging people to go Tescos so I could get my drink on, it took hours until a few people decided to give in and go with me. Me and Darron returned with 30 Fosters, which kept me happy, as long as I can drink I'm happy. As for the music on Friday, the first act we saw was Little Boots, well, we was meant to see her but as usual it took everyone ages to get the fuck out of the camp site, so we only saw her final song on the big screen outside the NME tent. After we got a drink or whatever, we made our way inside the NME tent for The Horrors, who were alright, I can't really say I'm a fan of them, but they did play well. When The Horrors finished we stayed around for Jack Penate 'cause I managed to persuade Darron and Dan to stay with me 'cause I wanted a sing-a-long, and I generally think Jack's really good, he was even better live, he knows how to play to a crowd. After Jack we made our way back to camp, where we discovered Joes tent has been written on in toothpaste (which I later realised was my toothpaste). We made our way back to the main arena at about 8 to get a good place for Jamie T, which I personally thought was the best performance of the festival, but thats probably because I've idolised him since his Panic Prevention album, and he's the reason why I got into bass. Jamie T's set finished and we quickly made our way to Kings of Leon, we didn't get a good place, but I didn't mind because I don't really know any Kings of Leon songs, so I can't call myself a fan, and I'm glad I can't, 'cause they sounded really bad live. Toby said they were shit at V last year as well.
Chapter 3 coming soon, I'm too lazy to write everything at once.

Reading 09
Hello, I got back from Reading yesterday, I should of blogged but I spent most of my day talking about how good it was, unlike everyone else I got to sleep at about 1am last night, when I heard a lot of people slept their yesterday away, weaklings.
I've got a feeling this blogs gonna contain a lot of errors seeing as I feel like shit still, but oh well. Lets get this party started.
Our journey to Reading was tiring, haha. We went to Chaz' on Wednesday, chilled there playing Nazi Zombies and jamming with the others, didn't end up leaving until past midnight, not sure what time I got home though. When I got back I was looking at the ways to get to Reading, the last train was 03.44, the only one we could make, so we decided to get that one. The bus we needed to get arrived at the bus stop at 01.47, it was like 01.27 when we found out, so Darron left his as soon as I told him, we caught the bus with like a minute to spare. We got the 307 from Enfield Chase to somewhere, then the N279 to Tottenham Court Road, then the N7 to Paddington, we got there around 03.30. We saw some people who were also going to Reading, spoke to them for a bit then went to get tickets, until we saw it said card only... so I asked one of the boys we were talking to if they had their card on them, they said nope, just get on the train, its £18 for a ticket and £20 for a fine, so it doesn't really matter. We took their advice and got on the train. Arriving at 04.30 and no ticket inspectors to give us grief we got a cab to the entrance and started lining up, we were near the front so it was alright. There was a really annoying man shouting stuff related to Lord of the Rings like "I AM LEGOLAS, SON OF BLAH BLAH, DEFENDER OF BLAH BLAH" etc. he wouldn't stop, he did it for ages. They started letting us in around 5.30ish, we got in at about 6. They were checking bags, well, they didn't check mine, they checked Darrons, took his deodorant, and the man spotted some draw in his grinder and said "Go on, man" in his black voice. We then set up camp in Y9 while telling all the others where we were, when we finally settled down Darron realized the bag inspector stole the little bit of draw he found in his grinder, luckily he didn't find the rest he had. Can't remember who arrived at the camp site in what order, but I know Joe Lacey and Jack Marcou were the firsts there (after us of course), then Josh Doherty and his cousins mates came, not sure who else was after, but the following people stayed with us: Beth, Josh, Tom, Ross, Bill, Saleem, Daisy, Laura, Elena, Charlotte, Becca, Sharifa, Jenny, Toby, Nick, Freddie, Kelly, I actually can't remember who else, I've probably forgot some people but oh welllll.
I've got to start building my portfolio for college, I've got an interview for Barnet tomorrow and I've done nothing, so I'm gonna spend the next 3 hours doing stuff.
To be continued...
