Well, alot has been happening recently, some good things and some bad... but this is just a lil recap of my last few weeks...what i've been up 2 on the wkends...2 weeks ago:
Friday
After coming home from school (bowling!) I went to small group which was a nice way to finish the school week…Its so fun just catching up. Neways we had TWO packets of tasty jacks (ohhhhyehh) and boy were they good.
Saturday
My friend and I were planning to go to the mall (coz she had just won a bet to guess what time and date our friend’s baby would be born and so she got $310). But at the last minute her parents told her that they had to go spread their grandpa’s ashes over the ocean and so had to bail. But all was good coz instead mum and I did some dam good quality shopping. Quality over quantity this time. We went op-shopping first of all in neutral bay and Mosman and then we went to Birkenhead point where I got a teal (teal is SO the new orange) little cardigan from Table 8 (under the table), then I was looking at those boots in sportsgirl but they were REALLY uncomfortable…then I went to this really funky shoe shop and bought a pair of boots that were SOOO SO comfy and looked so mad and were only $50 and had just been featured in Vogue for $350…so im like ‘woooo!’!! Neways…then we went formal dress shopping and mum and I were just about to give up when we suddenly saw ‘Dun-an-dun-aa’ HARTS!! So we had a look in there and I tried on a few pretty dresses and then I found a dress that looked perfect on me and it was really pretty and elegant and I was like ‘yayayayay!’ and mum was like ‘yayayayay!’ and then we were bother like ‘yayayayay!!’ and so we bought it! So now I just have to get a date, and accessorize of course!
An hour later I went to my friend’s house and my mate drove us up to Glenrose where we bought the Incredibles (only bcoz we were under age to buy the exorcist and it wasn’t in the right format) and we bought sum lollies for the night ahead.
For the rest of the night (her parents were out btw) we watched the Incredibles (which we didn’t finish coz we got bored), went in the spa, watched Monty Python, made Nachos and ate lollies, talked and, the infamous night time stroll.
It was precisely 11:57 pm when Rach (my buddy) and I got out of the spa and into our PJ’s and decided to take a walk (…in our Pj’s). We were just strolling along, the occasional drunk (in a car) zooming past, talking and occasionally looking at people going to parties (people were ARRIVING still! open house ones at like midnight). We had walked a fair way away from Rach’s house and it was so weird because I had never seen this particular part of Belrose before, I was completely lost. Neways luckily Rach knew where she was explaining that she jogged this path with her dad in the mornings.
“Here, this is the shortcut, I nearly missed it.” Rachel said pointing into the darkness.
We had been walking on the road so although it was dark, we still occasionally had a street light to aid us in the correct direction. But where Rach was pointing all I could see was a few rocks in the foreground then some trees, then absolute darkness.
I followed a few feet behind Rachel with my arms out in front of me, into the darkness focusing my eyes on what I could see, trying not to walk into something or fall. We kept bush bashing until we got to a small rocky path surrounded by big trees and darkness. It was eerily silent and to break it, I made a joke about how Narrabeen always had condoms in the bushes from all the couple having sex there (I know, its gross-its sort of a pj coz we used to always go there 2gether wit our families). Suddenly, Rachel’s foot steps stopped and she let out a high pitched scream. When I heard her I did the same and screamed. The next thing I knew she bolted past me and so I followed not knowing what was going on. I ran so fast at first that I bolted past her, I was sooooo scared of what she saw or felt or heard or whatever that I expected the worst and was just running towards any form of light hoping that I wouldn’t trip or run into something in the darkness and hoping that Rach was behind me. I was too scared to turn back but I heard Rachel scream “Keep running!”. I had never run as fast as I did then in my whole life-it’s sort of like when a shark is chasing you, you would swim abnormally fast because you are just so petrified. It was like that. I just kept running with Rachel for, I think, 300 metres until we had reached the top of the nearest hill turned the corner and we could hear a nearby party. As we stood, gasping for air, Rachel stuttered:”S-someone was in the b-bushes Casey, and I think someone might’ve been behind the caravan aswell.” Rachel told me. “I swear they were chasing us…”. We both looked back and both started running again at the same time, this time we only got 50 m, maybe because we were already breathless, or maybe because we weren’t as scared now and couldn’t run as fast. As we went past an open house party we were tempted to go in coz we were so scared it/he/she was still chasing us. We decided to walk quickly, occasionally jogging back home, and once we were home we locked the doors and rested. It was no joke, the scariest moment of my life. It may not sound too scary, but the first 50 m was terrifying coz I had no idea what was happening, I was just running my heart out.
When we got home, we spent the night recalling ghost stories and scary things that had happened in our childhoods.
Sunday
Dan, Rach and I went shopping and Ice skating at Macquarie. It was fun, I love ice skating, except I got a blister which sucks.
Last weekend:Friday
Some friend's families came over to celebrate my mum's bday, which was nice, we all just talked in the bar.
Saturday
Mum and I went shopping, then we went to a play called "Minefeilds and Miniskirts" at glenstreet and then I went to Meg's party which was fun.
SundayIn the morning i went to Karl's house for brekky to celebrate her bday with the Verkerk's (karlie's fam fam), mum and i, the Humphrises (Rach and dan's famfam) and laura. We then decided to do a bushwalk (woopee.). it was SOOOOO long~! We walked from Bantry bay to Seaforth then back along wakehurst parkway.
This past weekend:
Saturday (night) and Sunday
Oh, what a night it was. It started with Karlie and I arriving at Rach and Dan’s house at 5. Micheal was already there and Rach’s parents were going out and so once they left, we ordered chinese food. After dinner we watched the movie ‘Club Dread’ (a bit like ‘Scary Movie’) and then afterwards we watched ‘Deadbirds’ (a horror movie). It was midnight and Rach’s parents had come home and went to bed. Danielle followed, then Rach, until it was just Karl, Mike and I watching ‘Rage’ on the TV. Karlie and I decided to creep upstairs and go to bed because it was 1:30am and we were so tired. Mike had to sleep downstairs coz he wasn’t allowed to sleep with us. About 10 minutes later (I was just about asleep) Karlie’s phone beeped indicating a message. She looked at it and it was like ‘Can u guyz come down, the room under the stairs is making noises and im fricken scared’. We laughed and Rach woke up. About 12 messages later Karlie’s phone rang and she picked it up. Guess who? Micheal. He was getting soo annoying, we were just too tired. The conversation consisted of “Can you guys come downstairs?….No…..Please?…..No, you come upstairs……Can you come down?….No…..Please?…. No!” and Karl hung the phone up. 2 sec later the phone rang again. Rach and I were laughing bcoz he was so pathetic, 10 minutes later we were threatening him with ‘Come up or shut up’. (my catchy slogan might I add). As Karl and him kept reasoning with each other over the phone rach and I started trying to get the phone off Karl so we could hang it up. We couldn’t get it off her and eventually he hung up. He was so funny yet so annoying. Then Rach was like, “guys, im hungry, wanna go down stairs and then we’ll go to Michael’s room?” we agreed and crept down the stairs (coz we didn’t wanna wake the parentals up, but karl and rach tripped on a coat hanger and it clinked and then I stepped on this big creak). We then went into Michael’s room as Rach ate boiled rice (yuk) at 3:30 in the morning. We spoke to him for a while until we realised he wasn’t wearing anything under the covers so we ran back upstairs. Not even a minute had passed and Karl’s phone rang again…“Hello?…..Yous wanna come in the spa wif me?…..what! No…well, look out ya window (he’s a country bloke-he has a country accent)…..O-m-gosh…” Michael was in the spa-naked- at 3:30 in the morning! We were like “What!?”! Eventually he put his boxers on and came upstairs and slept in Karl’s bed and we all talked until 5:45 in the morning, when Ray (Rach’s dad) came in and was like “Are you-are you STILL awake!? Is Micheal in here by any chance…..(we sed yeh)…..Where are you? (the lights were off)…(micheal sed he was on the carpet in between me and karl even tho he was in the bed wit karl….lucky ray didn’t turn the light on) and then he was like “Out! Now!”…they both left and we all fell asleep straight away.
We all woke at 11:30 the next morning and we cooked pancakes and had a dishwashing foam fight in the kitchen (to Glenda’s (rachs mum) horror), and we bummed around outside, occasionally walking into the neighbours house with Kayla. We walked up to Shell and got an ice cream and then when we got back Karl and I had to go home coz Glenda needed to take Micheal back to school (he boards).
Yeh, so today and last nite was so much fun….but I can’t afford to go to bet that late (or early (6am)) every Saturday coz I was so dead 2nite that I didn’t go to church….which sucked coz I wanted to go coz last week I was at a friends church and so havnt been to stevos in a while but at the same time I just didn’t wanna move. Then I looked at the time and it was nearly 7 so that made up mi mind for me.
Well I better get back to mi History HW,
Luv Casey
