[Friday August 10th, 2007 at 10:19pm] RIP Tony Wilson, you inspired many including myself and you will be sorely missed, at 57 you still had a lot to give. Actually I feel the need to write more now. Thinking about it, Tony Wilson was such an inspiration to me, has been for probably about 4 years from when I first got into Factory Records. His attitude and passion was so refreshing and never waned as he grew older. He did so many things, a lot of which were never recognised in the main stream, he wasn't just about 24 hour party people and all those myths and legendary moments from the height of madchester. He was a great and intellectual man who had a wicked sense of humour. Sarah, as a fellow follower of Tony and all those times we had relating to him, I hope you aren't too sad, we will remember his greatness! post comment

Shitestar! [Sunday October 30th, 2005 at 7:50pm] It was at the venue and it was, as to be imagined, rather awful! Ah the fun of seeing all the posers and stereotypes around us in the queue as we slagged Fightstar off in front of some mad Austrian fan. We didn't get in till an hour after doors were supposed to be open, it was rather ghey. But finally we managed to get in, oh the excitement, and we found ourselves at front of the stage, literally, which was a seriously bad move. Anyways, the £8 to see Fightstar was completly worth it, why? Because of OMG MC LARS!!!!!!! He was amazing with his "post punk laptop rap" he sang songs about english literature!!! He was seriously epic, the best song was "Mr Raven" which had the lyrics "Knock knock, whose that rapping, rapping on my chamber door? Raven...Mr Raven, yeah!" other highlights included "hurricane fresh", "moby dick" and "Macbeth". He was obsessed with the castle as well! After he finished, Catriona shouted "MC LARS!!! SHAKE MY HAND!!" and when he went out to shake it she took it away and did the gheyest gesture, Mc Lars seemed impressed by her trickery...we are now stalking him on myspace. We managed to piss off the rest of the crowd by dancing and singing along to his songs (not hardcore you see). Next on was my awesome compilation...ah they were absolute pish but the drummer was fantastic, we loved him dearly, once they finished their awful din, Andy signed our tickets and water bottle, so Andy I salute you! Finally shitestar came on and to be honest I really hated it, Catriona and I were counting down how many songs to go. I have never been so battered in all my life, I thought FF were bad, everyone were ramming into us and crushing us, someone jabbed their elbow into me back and crushed my windpipe, them some pillock decided to crowdsurf, gets shoved back into the crowd by security and falls on top of me and Catriona, ahh it was so painful! Charlie is so hilarious, he says "fuck" every second word and has this nasty beard...that's all to really say on the matter of Fightstar! Oh but Sophia waited for them outside while we went off home and she met them all, got stuff signed and got 3 hugs from Charlie so she's really happy :D post comment

Why Shaun Ryder is the funniest man in music... [Sunday September 25th, 2005 at 7:44pm] HAPPY MONDAYS frontman SHAUN RYDER is convinced hit British children's show TELETUBBIES should be issued with a health warning for marijuana smokers. The STEP ON singer is bewildered by the simple BBC series, which features colourful characters TINKY WINKY, DIPSY, LA LA and PO, and is relieved it was not on TV during his years as a drug addict. The 43-year-old rants, "F**king Ceebybeebies. Those people that put out those programmes, they should be locked up. "If you've got a slight mental illness in you family, my two pieces of advice would be don't smoke marijuana and don't watch Teletubbies. "I'm just glad it wasn't on twenty years ago. "If it had been, Happy Mondays might not have got round to making a f**king record in the first place. "I'd have been sitting their tripping my t*ts off thinking that what Trispy-Wicksy was saying was f**king far more important than LIVE AID or NELSON MANDELA." post comment

Back from Sweden and I <3 Swedish Trolls... BERGSTROLL! [Thursday August 4th, 2005 at 7:22pm] I really shouldn't have spent 7 quid on this... correction... I shouldn't have made my parents spend 7 quid on this; Troll - In Scandinavian folklore there are two sorts of troll - Bergstroll who lives in the caves in the mountains and Skogstroll who live in the deep dark forests. They hoard treasure in their dens. Trolls have big ugly noses and long tails, really nasty - stealing food and swap their own babies - "Trollungar" for unchistened children - "Bort-bytingar". Trolls can't stand daylight so they are only active at night. They can live for hundreds of years. Phrases such as "rich as a troll" or "ugly as a troll" are often heard in the Swedish language. Damn, secretly I wish the folks had bought me this one simply for the reason it's absolutly EPIC!!!!! yeah so it cost 100 pounds that is not the issue here!! post comment

End of the exams! [Friday June 3rd, 2005 at 6:53pm] So today I had my last exam, business management, I however am so stupid! It was one of those fold out papers and I was in a rush to get started so I just read the case study and then went on to the questions however I had folded it out wrong so I did the two essays in section 2 first (you can pick the 2 essays you prefer out of 5) So I ended up doing one of the hardest essays by accident, but I think I managed it okay it was all about implimenting decisions and strategical and tactical stuff in mcdonalds. Section 1 was nasty as well but manageable. Anyway that's the end of it all and exam talk is boring especially if it's BM. Vanessa was waiting for me outside which creeped me out and she started screaming about how someone had nicked her 60p bus fare and "are you not wondering why I have blood all down my arm" nonsense, no vanessa I couldn't care less.. So I had to endure a bus journey with her :( Where me, laura and jobie talked about stuff while she repeated everything I said. GRRRR!!! Damn her. People on the bus looked a bit alarmed by it all. I met this really sweet old man today and he was born in 1917 and was telling me all about himself - it was really nice and brightened up my view on the human race in a crazed round about way that two strangers could just have a nice friendly discussion - he was so lonely it made me really sad though, he knew he was going to die soon as well :( Back to the daily gring on monday can't wait, to get back to normality! That is all I have to glare at the neds outside my house ;) post comment

The Bob Geldof Rant [Friday June 3rd, 2005 at 4:13pm] People such as Shona and I like to rant over certain matters, tonight it was live aid. The only excuse I have for ranting as much as I do is because I'm British Rachael aka a moany PMT filled bitter twisted bitch :) Anyways Shona wrote this hilarious (slightly bad taste) story thing about Mr Geldof which made me laugh loads so I thought I may spread the love. Geldof lovers beware - it's tongue in cheek. BOB GELDOF'S THOUGHT PROCESSES 1. Hmm feeling a bit bored today... 2. I miss being on the telly 3. I shall try to save the world again! 4. OOOHH poor folk on the telly 5. I shall help them! 6. I'm not giving them my fucking cash! 7. I'll get the commoners to cough up, I do have a knighthood after all 8. Where did I put the BBC's phone number? 9. Alright I'm on the telly 10. I'll get some other famous bastards in on the act-sharing's caring plus i can sit on my arse for a bit whilst they do some of the work. bono's always up for a laugh 11. Ok so got the march organised 12. Hmm Big brother's on..... 13. No! Back to the march! 14. So march is over, I've left the city in a shambles. 15. But hey I sold a few more copies of the Boomtown Rat's greatest hits 16. I'm off to hibernate until the next famine/drought/natural disaster.... THE END The moment a typhoon hits *phone rings at the Geldof's* "Dad there's been a natural disaster!" "WTF!? Let me get my coat it's time for liveaid!" BBC: "Yes Bob, we were expecting you" *Bob digs out live aid manual* "Well let's just re-hash the old idea we had, I can save some pennies.... LIVES! I mean I can save some lives!" BBC: Maybe we can fly you out to Africa for your live broadcast thsi time, Bob? Make it a bit more authentic? "Fuck off, we'll stick some trees in the back of the hotel suite. Oi Jimmy - find me a starving African, good lad!" *10 secs till we go live* "Right starving African, what's your name again? Zimbibli. Ok, I'm yer new adopted father alright, just hug me and look happy, ok!" *5 secs till we go live* "Gimme a bottle of Evian!" *pours into eyes* "3, 2, 1 We're live!" "the time has come again,my friends, for me to call upon your help. I believe I have been put on this earth for a reason (jimmy:"to fuck things up u mean?, bob:"shut yer arse!!!") "to help the people of the 3rd world, ppl like zimbibli,my new adopted son from a small village i helped rebuild with my bare hands in eritrea (bbc:"you've never been to eritrea bob......", bob:"shut the fuck up!!! they're eatin out my hand!") "so I appeal to you now,my friends,to join me,take my hand,unite with me and we shall tackle poverty together. by buying the boomtown rats greatest hits, you too can make a difference" *cuts to emaciated child* *cuts to sir Bob dancing through a field of flowers* "Help me make it a reality my friends, help them make it a reality" *cuts to boomtown rats video* THE END! post comment

Wise, old mature me! [Tuesday May 24th, 2005 at 6:51pm] Hehe I'm in one of my philosophical moods today, giving out wisdom and advice to all, haha. I think Sadjah got scared though she just kept getting freaked out and going "Stop it, Rach!", she can't handle my theories on time! I'm going on a diet (I think), my eating has gone crazed, yesterday I ate a bag of popcorn and that was all till tea. I just eat junk in the day like that, everyone at school was saying they were seven stone or seven and a half and I'm 8 and I feel fat, diddums, so I shall be looking for alternatives :D I don't want to end up like those people who end up all squashy because they over indulged a bit too much! OMG there is a community for the lothian number 41 bus!!! This is hilarious and makes me think about starting a rival community for the number 37, because that bus rocks and is full of crazy characters (literally I'm friends with them). LJ is full of such wonderful and strange communities. Anyways I'm off to ponder some more. I would advise it to you all. Damn I should make my entries at least a bit more witty. x post comment

Fights Galore! [Monday May 2nd, 2005 at 6:40pm] Hmmm there was a fight at lunchtime yesterday it was so ridiculous how it started. Sabrina was printing out some of her annoying fan fiction which was running to like 20 pages and she prints it every day, so Laura told me to tell her to stop wasting all the resources and to stop printing out her fan fiction and to tell her to come through. So, i said to her that she was wasting paper and that Laura wanted her. So when Sabrina comes through Laura starts saying all this stuff and they start having an argument about all the issues that Sabrina is causing at the moment e.g. telling everyone they are crap and she is the queen. Sabrina has no moral consience which is the main issue I suppose e.g. purposly getting one of her many boyfriends to pretend he was interested in wendy, to get her hopes up. I'm so pissed off about it. All we ever do at school now is argue with sabrina. I have to talk to miss moyes next about my chemistry prelim next period - im scared. In other news sadiyah aka Sadjah wants me to see Robots with her, because she has to go to help chaperone some party of her sister's friend. I so don't wanna go though and i hate it when its just me and Sadjah doing stuff, there's nothing to talk about and we're quite different people so there are no common interests. I haven't really bothered commenting on the masive fight we all had on Tuesday :s With sabrina it was so bad! Laura started going you've said really bitchy cruel things about everyone in this group to her and she went like what and laura started reeling off this list of all the stuff she had said about each one of us it was horrible. Apparently Im weird, which is fair enough, i suppose but still insulting because of the way she said it. Everyone felt shit afterwards people were taking sides, people started crying and crap like that. I'm not to bothered becuase everyone at least knows whats been said and although it's hurtful it's out and the open along with everyone's feelings. Just a bad atmosphere hanging around. Tonnes of crap happened but I've gone on about it long enough so :D post comment

When time drags plan the future! [Thursday March 17th, 2005 at 5:41pm] Im so tired it's unbelievable and i still have double maths to go *groan* How will i cope? My friends and i have decided which uni we wanna go to when we leave school in 2 years he he he. We have all decided on Durham University for three reasons. 1. The people on the brochure look all friendly and have knitted jumpers 2. The campus looks really nice and the most important reason of all..... 3. There is a TOASTIE BAR After we decided on this we came to the conclusion that after uni we shall all go emigrate to Cananda because it's a nice place and apparently they're looking for people to emmigrate there. Then because we are stupid we came up with ways in which to find money to pay for it all the best idea seemed to be move to New Zealand and become lifeguards. It was so funny although it sounds a bit mental here. I have decided to make my lj friends only because i know a few people know i have an lj now and if this is passed on people i dont like will be able to read it and plus i may say things about certain people who i dont want finding out. At school, now that we've all had our results back sabby gabby keeps slagging off anyone who didnt do that well, laura is getting so angry with her because she keeps telling her a C in chem is crap but she can talk because she only got a D in english and this was int1. I've been getting really nostalgic over the last few days and have found myself listening to old compilation cds from the nineties, ahh when things were much simpler... *looks longingly into the distance* post comment

NED Revenge [Friday March 11th, 2005 at 5:38pm] Today has been so funny. The bus journey shall be talked about forever more in chemistry clinic while we should be doing work. A bunch of neds/chavs were slaggin off some guy with an afro who goes to herriots and swearing at him etc so the bus driver is screaming at them to shut up on the intercom, so naturally we all start laughing at them. Due to their being an own clothes day we were free to join in with some "friendly banter" with the neds. Well, my friend did mainly because shes good at the old insults etc. They started making fun of us with such witty remarks as "you lot have no tits" etc but they werent the cleaverest people and they ended up being humiliated in front of the whole bus by a bunch of "private school girls" ha revenge is sweet, someone even thanked my friend for sorting them out, the whole bus was laughing. Unfortunatly they know what school we go to so i bet they will report us and are head will probably go crazy! I'm so sick of neds and im so glad that finally justice was served. post comment

Bizzaro! [Sunday February 27th, 2005 at 6:31pm] Twas a bizzare morning today at school. We were all in assembly, probably supposed to be listening to some moral lesson, when the office receptionist comes rushing in and whispers something to the headmistress, all of a sudden we are all told some girl at school has been run over, how typical. Some guy this morning ran over her apparently she went over the bonnet he rushed to see if she was ok but she said she was fine and bolted. No one knows who it was and the school are desperatly trying to find out who it is. Tres odd, knowing us lot we would be milking it for all it's worth. Today was alright, had a fire drill and Mrs Lammond (Janice) has to be a "fire inspector" now and has to wear a bright yellow jacket it was hilarious! (It has to be seen to be believed) In BM we just chucked rubber at each other which was such a laugh especially when Pothead screamed at us just as Laura threw a rubber straight into my face hehe! Copied out previous papers to hand in as well, cause we're so lazy. English was hilarious, me and Sophia have given each other nicknames for our adventure to T in the park because we are excited and are sad. Sophie is now EG (earl grey) and I am PJ (pj tips), see what we did there ahh the wit. Catriona is just pyramid tea bag ha ha. We have also decided to start a pirate radio station lol we shall go down to Leith and sit on a raft broadcasting, we are already arguing on the theme music ha ha ha. I'm going out tommorow to the cinema and shopping yay! That's my main plan for the weekend! post comment
