Been a while ...

Wow. It's been a few since I updated you all. I know, I've been meaning to blog about little things that has caught my eye the past few weeks. So. Let's see what has been happening lately...

I watched the latest episodes of GOSSIP GIRL recently, and can I say .. it is the BEST EVER new teen drama on TV right now!!! The last scene of episode 7 ... well, pretty much the most awesome make-out scene in the whole of television history. Blair & Chuck are the hottest TV couple right now!! Check it out right here!



Australian Idol has ended for another year, and once again, the teen heartthrob/favourite did NOT win. =P SUCCCKKEDD IIINN MATT CORBY FANS!!! Here's the thing I found about Idol winners.
There is a pattern.
2003: Guy Sebastian MALE
2004: Casey Donovan FEMALE
2005: Kate DeAraugo FEMALE
2006: Damien Leith MALE
2007: Natalie Gauci FEMALE

Therefore, I predict ... A RIOT!!
Just kidding. I predict that next year's winner will be a FEMALE.

to believe or not to believe? that is the question.

Something was circling the inter-web last night, and it all began with a curious MySpace bulletin:

'Last night on November 13th famous drummer Travis Barker was found dead in his garage. "He was found in his garage coming home from a dinner/award ceremony." said reporter Tom Burry.
Investigators are not sure of how Former +44 drummer yet died or they are not telling the public the full truth yet.
Travis's wifes exact words "everyone in the world has someone special who has died in there life. Maybe it hasn't happen yet but please pray for Travis and my family. I would appreciate it and whoever did this to Travis is a sick! man."

RIP Travis Barker? I think not.

If you want to know the REAL truth, this was in fact just a sick rumour made up by some sick minded person who obviously has no life whatsoever. Seriously, some people need to get out more. Why you would want to think someone dead is ... beyond me. No one deserves to die I reckon, but we all will someday. And you would think that if Travis really did die, it would have been pretty much all over the news. Besides, his wife/girlfriend, Shanna, posted up her own Myspace bulletin:

I'm not quite sure who would start a sick rumor, even if it was done as a joke. I am happily laying next to my husband who is alive and well and it brings me great pleasure to stop a rumor as horrific as that. It is indeed FALSE.

health wealth and happiness
shanna xoxoxooxoxoxo

So there you have it.

TRAVIS BARKER IS NOT DEAD!

And in case you were wondering who Travis is, he played drums in former band Blink 182 and currently plays in the band +44. Believe me, if any member of Blink 182 had passed, I think every fan would be playing the song 'I Miss You' over and over for the next few weeks/months.

The things we love about Myspace - gossip spreads fast.

dreams come & end so fast.

wow. so dreams really do last for say, 5 minutes.
well, in my case, this one lasted for like, 15.
slept in this morning. woke up at 6.15am. hit snooze. wake up again at like 7am. snooze. 7.15. bathroom's occupied. next time i look at the time on my phone...
7.30!!
CRAP!
but i really didn't want to get out of bed. cause i was having this dream. it was really good too. well, in my opinion haha.
meeting chuck & pierre from simple plan, hanging with joel & good charlotte. =] woahh...and then joel says to me: "wanna come hang up the coast with us for the weekend?"
SAY WHAT?!!
and then he gets out his mobile phone and he's calling up my friend Jess. haha snap!!

and that's when i finally got up out of bed.
& probably explains why i came 30 mins late to class.

=]

but seriously, do dreams have meanings personally? i've always wondered what do they really mean in reality??? like, this dream in particular.... probably means i've been obsessing way way too much about my fave bands, or not.

anyways, i don't remember MOST of my dreams. this one, i obviously did. and it happened at 7am. weiird!!

teenagers scare the living shit out of me ... NOT.

you seem to notice many things happening around you when you're on public transport, more notably a bus or train. well, more often than when you're just walking down the street. but anyway ...

i was standing on the bus to parramatta heading to work on tuesday arvo. it was like, just after 3pm, and you know, the time when school finishes, you get all the school kids filling up the bus. god i hate school kiddies when they pile up on the bus. i never really noticed before, but they're annoying and they smell. (well its high school kids that smell, the primary school kiddies are the annoying shits.)

anyway, back on-topic...
i was standing up obviously cuz the bus was packed of kiddies, listening to my mp3 player, and i noticed these 3 primary school kids sitting beside/below me lol. (they went to the primary school i went to, just so you know) there were 2 boys and 1 girl. i think the little girl was a sister of one of the boys. what i noticed they were doing was.. the girl would not stop hitting her brother!! and what did the brother's friend do??
like, nothing. to me it looked like he was egging her on.
at one point, the girl's arm hit her brother and knocked my earphones out of my ear! grrr!!

kids these days. i swear, i'm pretty sure i didn't hit my sisters like that, nor did my sisters hit me. well, obviously cause we're all girls.
and then, when the brother and sister got off the bus (finally), i tried to imagine what they would be like as teenagers. and what popped into my head was this...

the brother's friend has the hots for his sister (hint hint the whole egging her on thing).

funny if that's how it worked out hey...

anyway, i don't know what the point of that was. did you enjoy my rant?
i don't even know what the point of this blog is yet ...
"partyin with rockstars" haha woo great name.
but basically, what i'm trying to say is that kids are annoying to the MAX!

oh, and can i also mention,
HOW MANY BOGANS CAN YOU SPOT ON A BUS HEADING TO PARRAMATTA!?
=P

hahaha.

that's all folks.

Countdown to NYE 2007-2008!

Today is November 9th.
In one month and 22 days, it is ...
NEW YEARS EVE!
Wow, I can't believe that a whole year has gone by. Seriously. It feels like only yesterday I was on Schoolies in Kiama. One year since I finished high school. Whoa. Things have definitely changed in one year, for worse or for better. In a good way.
So, the question of the day is ...

WHAT'S YOUR NEW YEAR'S EVE PLANS?

I've been trying to figure what I'm gonna do, but like, pretty much all the decent parties are on final release tickets eg. Harbour Party @ Luna Park and Odyssey NYE @ Dreamworld. Those are the 2 that I'd be keen on attending =)
So I guess, if you really want a night to remember that's worth it, you've got to get in early!!!

Or have a cheap-ass night and spend it with a bunch of your coolest & closest mates!

The Perfect Way to Spend NYE:
- Alcohol
- Friends
- Music
- Awesome view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge Fireworks

"overproduced pop" ... there is no shame!

So, I went on absolutepunk.net earlier today to see the apparent Simple Plan tracklisting and I already see members of ap.net bagging the album out .. when, might I add, it's not even out!! Seriously, can people be so stupid these days?! So you probably liked Simple Plan before they "got big", but now, you hate them because they're in mainstream and what not.

But anyway, what really got me is why in hell would a site like absolutepunk.net even CARE about Simple Plan when CLEARLY ... hardly any member on that site could give a stuff about them. It's beyond me. Calling their new album "overproduced pop" even before it's released is an all-time low!

But, if you want to call it that, go ahead. I'm not really ashamed of liking so-called "overproduced pop" artists like Simple Plan or Good Charlotte. Heck, if that's what overproduced pop is, then what do you call bands like the Jonas Brothers, Mcfly, Busted, etc? All this genre business is pretty full of crap these days. Every artist/band likes to mix it up lately. Which is awesome I reckon! Being diverse = thumbs up. :)

Anyway, here's the latest album tracklisting for Simple Plan, RIGHT HERE:

01) When I'm Gone
02) Take My Hand
03) The End
04) Love is a Lie
05) Save You
06) Generation
07) Time to Say Goodbye
08) I Can Wait Forever
09) Holding On
10) No Love
11) What If

The record is released January 29, 2008!

Peace out! xx

i'm bringing sexy back ... YEAH!

WOW! is all I can say about last night's Justin Timberlake concert in Sydney at Acer Arena. =D
What an amazing show. The whole production, stage and lighting was pretty spectacular!
OMG, and he can dance! (well we all already knew that)
It was pretty much the BEST EVER concert I have been to!
The ONLY concert that can get better than a Simple Plan or Good Charlotte concert. =]

I also worked at the first J.T. concert on Wednesday night. Woww. hectic as. But sooo goood to get worked up for Thursday night. haha. Why do people bother lining up at bars at a show anyway? You're there to enjoy the performer/s, not spend $50 on like, alcohol.

Yay for Justin! =D

Next upcoming shows:
- Hilary Duff. Feb 2, 2008
- Soundwave Festival, Feb 24, 2008

Anyway, Simple Plan's new single "When I'm Gone" premiered on Tuesday morning. What an amazing song! New beats, thanks to Timbaland's right-hand man, Danja! The boys have really matured with their music. I'm looking forward to January 29, 2008! You can have a listen for yourself here!
