Talking to the songbird yesterday

Obviously, that last post wasn't me.

Anyway, life.

Life has been fairly good of late.

Pretty much what's been happening has gone something like this.

We finished the Leaders Program, and had dinner at the Cranlana Mansion, which was pretty alright.

Not two days after that, I had my grand birthday bash thingo. According to a lot of people, it was a blast. Or, at least, pretty fun.

Personally, I thought the pinata was a fantastic idea. I had my doubts, but my friends have this ability to make anything fun.

Actually, I had my doubts about the whole thing in general, because I don't feel as though I'm a very entertaining person in general. But it turned out alright, mostly because my friends and family are awesome are making things awesome e.g. bringing Edward Cullen in as a birthday card. Gotta love it.

I'm yet to send out thank-yous and all that, but hopefully I'll get around to it soon.

Also, I felt like a bit of a beast afterwards, because I had about five shots, a champagne, and a beer, and I was not affected at all, whereas all my alcoholic friends were collapsing like proverbial houses of cards. Good times and all, but seriously, never drinking tequila ever again. Absolutely vile substance. I was mowing the lawn the other day, and I was just thinking to myself, "Man, something smells like tequila." It eventually came to my realisation that it was the petrol.

A few days after that, we went on a roadtrip to Rye. We being a bunch of friends.

A good roadtrip. In some ways, better than the last. The personnel was better (that's not to say that I dislike all the people that didn't come, it's just that some people that did come this time were quite awesome. Well, I have a distinct non-like of some people that came last time, but whatever). It was a bit too short though, but that's life. I also got to test out the spanking-new DSLR that my friends got me for my 21st, which was great. Also, I played guitar. People seemed to enjoy that a little bit, which was good. 'Songbird', by Oasis, I think, will become my party piece. Works out quite well.



Short, sweet, easy to play, and very, very tender. Well, at least, the way I sing it is. Liam, as always, kind of butchers it. It can also double up as my serenading piece.
