count how many times I say garage rock... (kill bill 2 spoilers, too)

On friday night I got home and I was meant to go to Kate's party, but I felt kinda sick and my throat was still sore from my flu. So anyway, Shell and Maddy wanted me to go over to practice, so I did, and it was really fun! They were so surprised at how well I can play the guitar (not bragging I can play well, they were just surprised that i could play chords and stuff, cause I had told them I wasn't that good. They thought I meant I was crap, but I just meant I dont know any technical stuff and how to play metal solos and stuff!) It was really fun. I showed them a new song I have written and Shell started putting a bassline to it. It's a bit of a different style for me, I pretty much wrote it as a joke cause it's garage rock and I hate garage rock. But they really liked the riff, so I guess it will be one of our songs! I tried writing some lyrics to it, just kinda payout garage bands whilst playing a garage rock song! So it should be fun.
After that we went to the shops to buy alcohol and I saw stringa! He has personalised number plates. Oh by the way, you two boys who work at safeway have to say hi to the new guy, antony, in the bottle-o, cause I said you would. I was asking him if he knew anyone and he didn't! So talk to him. Even if it's just like, "you smell".
We packed up my guitar (Shell said I could borrow one of her pedals, it's so cool, good little distortion pedal.) and went 'round to Maddy's place. Her dogs have just had puppies, I don't know how old they are, but they have just opened their eyes and they are sooooooooo cute. I had a little black one sitting on me, and they can't even walk properly yet, they just drag themselves along, and make whimpering noises. One crapped on Shell, so then everyone didn't like the puppies anymore (I still did, though).
There was an old pullout from the age sitting on the coffee table, and it was the one about harry potter 3 coming out. It is a huge broadsheet pick of Daniel Radcliffe. So I asked if I could have it, and they said yes so now it is up on my wardrobe door.
We went into maddy's room (she has pics of Christina Aguilera everywhere on her walls and it scares me! So much Christina, so little clothing!) and started to watch Kill Bill, but then they got bored. I had never seen it though, so I borrowed it. It was so funny though, cause it's a pirate dvd, the english subtitles were stuck on and they are really wrong. Like, at the start where the little girl cmes home and her mother says it was the dog, in the translation, it says it was her horse! So funny. I somehow managed to turn them off at my house though.
We went on the internet for awhile, then sat around listening to music, and around 12 I called my parents to pick me up and I went home. It's so good knowing people in Lara who want to start a band. Plus it gives me something to do without going miles away. Plus Maddy and Shell don't know me well enough yet, so they are still on the stage of thinking I am really cool and interesting!

The spoilers start after this bit

On Saturday Morning I got up and watched Kill Bill, cause we had decided we would go to see the sequel that afternoon. I cried heaps! It's so stupid, but I thought it was a really sad movie! I cried when the little girl came in and saw *Uma Thurmans character* (I wont spoil it too much for people who haven't seen the second one by using heyr character's name) had just killed her mum. I cried in the anime bit where the girl was under the bed and her mum got stabbed and the sword came through the bed, too. And when she woke up in the hospital and she was screaming cause her baby was gone. Those guys were such assholes, that buck dude.
It's funny though, it's meant to be a really gory movie, but it didn't really gross me out because you know it's not real, because peoples arms and legs are getting chopped off, and blood is spraying everywhere. The only gross thing in the two movies was anything to do with the eyes being gouged out. And when it was squished! Everyone in the movie theatre was going "ughhhh! yuck!" That woman was so evil, tho. What she did to the swishy beard man. Was he meant to be funny? Because I was pissing myself!
Anyway, after I watched it, Shell and Maddy picked me up and we went into town. Maddy had free movie tickets, so we didn't have to pay, whcih was really nice. We got sushi for lunch, but I didn't enjoy it as much as usual because of my cold. Then we went to see Kill Bill 2. There were harry potter posters everywhere. I'll have to get my ticket, soon, but I don't know who I'm going with yet. that movie loosk sooo soo good. The angst! Oooh, I love emo harry. He just gets more and more emo with every book. He should dye his hair black and but it in an emo hairstyle and start a screamo band with neville and ron and Hermione and sing about hating Voldemort and how he used to like cho but she is too emo now (in a bad way) and Sirus and Cedric, and his parents. But yeah. That will never happen... unless we all start sending Jk heaps of emo and screamo cds and saying "this is what kids listen to! put it in your books!". Harry could go see Funeral for a Friend or something. That would be so cool.
But back to the movie. I thought it was really good, and I don't really know why I never watched them before.. it's weird. I think i thought they looked kinda lame. I thought the second one was really sad, too. I hated that stupid cowboy, what a pathetic character. Ans the casket scene is the worst thing ever. You just keep thinking "Oh my God, she can't die, but how the hell is she gonna get out of this one?" And when you can hear the dirt falling.Its so scary.
Bill reminded me of John Druce for some reason. I can imagine John sending people off to china to some crazy man to learn to draw better! It's weird, I hated all the other characters, but I didn't hate him. He was horrible to her( he shot her in the head, what's worse than that?), but he didn't seem evil. Which made it hard.
Anyone who hasn't seen it yet, should, cause it's really good. But if you dont like snakes, or spit, or blood, or you're afraid of the dark, you might freak out at some parts.
