ELEVATION!

ELEV8 WAS AWESOME!

Danced LOADS and now am very, very sore. My legs are feeling buffer though! =)

Obviously, In true Newcastle fashion, hardly anyone danced. Most sat at the back texting or stood in the crowd taking myspace photos, looking overly self-conscious or sending "omg you freak" looks at anyone who actually looked like they were having fun.... but it was otherwise great.

Half our year was there I swear but they didn't really bother us. There was a bit of sleazy bogan action but it didn't ruin the night. =)

Spent our time either in the "pit" or dancing on the top tier, getting many, many strange looks *which only made it funner!)

All in all it was LOADS of fun and I can't wait for the next one!!

Aly's Top 5 Films of 2009!

1. BOAT THAT ROCKED! - Set in the 1960s.... Full of sex, drugs and best of all.... rock and roll! Brilliant cast and incredible soundtrack! (Apart from a stupid cover by "Duffy"...pfft) Had to see it twice!

2. WATCHMEN - A great looking film with very intelligent writing. I must admit to girly cringing during some of the fight scenes though. Also amazing use of The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel.

3. UP - I'm not big on kids movies but i LOVE this. The characters where well developed and the story was really good. The montage at the beginning made me cry and there were some beautiful moments... plus who doesn't like a chipmunk-ed-rockweiler?

4. INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS - This was the first Tarantino movie I'd seen in the cinema and I have to say I was impressed. The suspense in the cottage scene was almost unbearable without losing momentum. The dialogue (as always) was fabulous and it wasn't as violent as his other work; which while some found disappointing, I appreciated. Though the scalping was totally ew-worthy. Also stood up to a re-watch! =)

5. SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE - Simply brilliant and deserved it's acclaim.



Also great were The Hangover, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People and Manufacturing Decent.

Weddings Parties Anything : For A Short Time

Sometimes you can say more, in a drunken hour or so
Than some people get across, in a life of lying low.
And sometimes you can feel more, for someone you've barley kissed,
but you don't see it at the time, and the moment that you've missed.

For a short time, she was standing there,
and you saw her, she saw you and you recall the colour of her hair.

For a long time, you never thought of her,
Then you heard she was gone for good,
You might have cried then if you could,
Would have looked foolish if you did, somewhere
The tears are falling in your mind,
For a short time.

There's a photo of your gang, on the night she hung about,
and you're looking like a wag, you've got your fat tongue poking out.
But she's no-where to be seen, you won't spot her anywhere.
It was her who took the picture, you were looking straight at her.

For a short time, she was standing there,
and you saw her, she saw you and you recall the colour of her hair.

For a long time, you never thought of her,
Then you heard she was gone for good,
You might have cried then if you could,
Would have looked foolish if you did, somewhere
The tears are falling in your mind,
For a short time.

Tell me how long is a short time, is it longer than two hours,
Or a bit less than a weekend. Is it shorter than a year?
Is it the time it takes to not complete your business with a person,
With a friend you make in transit,
to a daughter held so dear.
