It's a bit late, I know. Sorry, but I forgot to save the last post I did, haha, silly me, BAM.

OK lads, just calm the fuck down and we can get started.

The Bands.

Best band : Prodigy
Worst band: The Hives

Other amazingly amazing acts : Aphex Twin, Get Up Kids, Ash, NOFX

Who else I saw : Breeders, Spunge, LTJ, Muse, Foo Fighters, G'n'R (hahaha), Slipknot (hahaha), Hundred Reasons, Strokes...and loads others I can't remember.

What Happened.

Got lost in red campsite for 4 hours. Ended up throwing myself down in the mud wailing 'I CAN'T FUCKING WALK ANYMORE!!! I'M STAYING HERE TONIGHT!' which was answered by Rufus with 'GET UP AND FUCKING WALK CATHY! WE HAVE TO GET HOME!' Arrived back at 6.30, drenched in mud and rain. Buckethead saved our lives.

TK got arrested for criminal damage, hahaha.

Tim got backstage....to be searched for drugs.

TK wore his stolen workman's tunic (which had something like 'NI Roadworks' on it) and told people to move away from our campsite. They thanked him and moved away, hah.

Stuart went missing for a day and a half, Turned out he'd had his drink spiked and couldn't remember anything past NOFX.

We went to the riots, like true Northern Irish folk. Except me and Rufus left early, leaving Susan to get trampled by mobs and Connor to reason (unsuccessfully) with riot police.

Erm...few other minor events, involving drugs, but nobody died!

Missed AOL folks. Gutted I didn't meet Matt n Ellie n Amy. But....I will come and visit you.

Peace out lads, don't burn any bogs, la. x

WELL, congratulations to
Matt, Kitty, Sam, Katie and anyone else who did exams and got their results yesterday :)

I got AAAC, and was one mark off a fucking B. Scaffy cunts. Still, can't complain!

I got a bunny called Puke for doing well from Rufus. I called it Puke in honour of what I've spent most of today doing.

Went to a beach party last night and got mashed off my face, as you do. I've always to go to the beach at night, it was one of 'things' I had never done but really wanted. It was perfect, and in between the banter, the quiet times were just perfect. I've never seen so many stars so bright, or maybe I was just really pissed (?) but it was beautiful looking out over the sea with the moon dancing across it. I'm being too mooshy here now. I stung my right arse cheek trying to piss in the bushes though.

Got me neep done bright red.

My mum fancies my French teacher.

mood: just GRAND
music: Sparklehorse
and I'll drink drink drink til it's coming out me ears
and I'll drink drink drink til the pub runs out of beer
and I'll drink drink drink til I can't take another sip
all day drinking on an intravenous drip


Some heartfelt lyrics for ya :*)

One day, I'm going to start posting up all the random funny things that happen to me. But I can never be arsed.

mood: happy
music: RHCP - Dosed
I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and
What am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay
In you a star is born and
You cut a perfect form and
Someone forever warm
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life
Show love with no remorse and
Climb on to your seahorse and
This ride is right on corse
This is the way I wanted it to be with you
This is the way that I knew that it would be with you
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life

  Whoever said that the new RHCP album was shite (and that was a quite a few, if I remember rightly), might I just say, YOU LIED. It's a fucking superb album. Yes, it's mellow, no, it doesn't have any Give It Aways or Aeroplanes, but come on. Forget it's the Chilis. Forget you love them for being funky. It's such an ace album. I think it's their best, it's well rounded, and damn the man, I love it.

Anyway. In the words of Foreigner 'I'm feeling sooo much looooooooove'.

mood: tired
music: Prodigy
Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes
And I know the waiting is all you can do sometimes


Went to the gym, nearly killed myself, as you do. Discovered how brutally unfit I am.

Went to a karaoke, nearly killed myself, as you do. Discovered that I can't sing at all, not even when sloshed. Just remembered that we sang Suspicious Minds.

Also changed the comment links on my lj, which, for someone as computerally illiterate as I, was quite an acheivement...I then attempted to make a background picture...HAHAHA. I gave up.

This week's soundtrack =

~ Prodigy - No Good (start the dance), Voodoo People, Breathe
~ Aqualung - Strange and Beautiful
~ Beth Orton - I love how you love me
~ Nsync - Tearing Up My Heart
~ Delgados - American Trilogy
~ Whiskeytown - Sit and listen to the rain
~ The Replacements - Bastards of Youth

I'm now going to go and nick some songs that Alex of Flowerwank fame has listed in his LJ to download, cos basically, his taste in music is impeccable :)

Later x

so, the year long wonder of www.livejournal.com/users/getupkate is no more. First the legend of KateSmellsRancid is lost, now this. But fear not, cos like, I'M still alive :D

I've had a pretty hectic week which involved hideous amounts of alcohol, bodyboarding down stairs, climbing on roofs, spraypainting my wheelybin, toilet papering of neighbour's cars....yeah yeah, the parentals went away < g >

managed to spend £150, of which £30 went on material possessions for myself.

so, yeah. add me you weird fuckers.
