emotionally dead

AAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH
I am.... Emotionally dead, thank you school. The teachers have been giving us so much pressure since it's 'the last year' while some other teachers + recent alumni kept saying "chill you'll realized later that final exams don't even matter."
I had English today, it wasn't as bad. I don't want to talk about it, but what I do want to talk about is this guy in my grade that started to have a mini seizure in the middle of the exam. Honestly some people (including me) couldn't stop staring at him as the teachers tried to help him. At one point he fell down on the floor and just lied there for a couple of seconds not moving. Made a couple of people worried I swear. You know how usually when you're walking out of the exam room with your friends you constantly hear the question "so how did you go [on your exam]?", not today. All I heard was "did you see what happen to [name of guy here]?!"

I got two exams tomorrow and it's killing me because I've been studying for hours and it seems that my brain does not absorb the 'beautiful' knowledge that we're supposed to learn. My mind is filled with legislation and cases to back up my thesis, and very minimal statistics and a little bit of basic knowledge of Australian law. I completely forgot about Art until now.How can you be smiling like that? Wait I know because you're just posing oh duck my head hurts why am I writing a blog I'd rather be emotionally dead for the next week than feel the pain of knowing that I will fail when receiving the marks back. For a little stress relief, here's a gif of the lovely ladies of Warpaint:

A little side note, I am right now missing a one hell of a gig. MGMT + Whitest Boy Alive, and then on Saturday I will miss the exact same gig, except it's in Jakarta. I guess I'll just have to get used to missing gigs from now on. Stupid final year.

OUT ON THE BEDSHEETS COMPLETING YOUR MISSION

2 weeks left of school, finished all of my assessments and I don't see the point of going to school since we don't do anything there anyway. Half the grade has gone to Nepal for Week 9 and half the grade will be on holidays in week 10.
Well meaning I'll be in Jakarta soon! I don't know what else to write, here are some gifs I made (of bands I will be seeing next year WOOOO). Tar.

THIS IS A POST DEDICATED TO LANEWAY FESTIVAL

ST JEROME'S LANEWAY FESTIVAL began in Melbourne in 2004. The festival expanded to Sydney in 2006, Brisbane in 2007, Adelaide in 2008 and Perth in 2009. Pitchfork reviewed this event as "Australia's most insurgent and unique pop music event". On October 1, 2009, that the festival would begin to visit New Zealand in 2010 and on November 15 2010 they officially announced that Laneway Festival are expanding to SINGAPORE.

That's right, Singapore. Bands rarely come here, and at least 3 bands that I thought I would never get a chance to see are coming on the 29th of January.

!!! (Chk Chk Chk) ~ BEACH HOUSE ~ DEERHUNTER ~ FOALS ~ HOLY F*** LADYHAWKE ~ THE TEMPER TRAP ~ WARPAINT ~ YEASAYER

FOALS...FOALS....FOALS....ARE COMING....TO SINGAPORE.
Tickets are on sale tomorrow, a.k.a 19th November, a.k.a my birthday. But we're not going to talk about my birthday because THE FACT THAT FOALS ARE COMING TO SINGAPORE ARE MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN MY BIRTHDAY.
They're going to announce more bands soon, and I hope either one of these bands are in one of the lineups:
TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB // Phoenix // Ariel Pink // Bear in Heaven // Klaxons // Local Natives
All of them are in Australia for Laneway or at the same time as Laneway and hopefully, they'll come to Singapore first, especially Two Door. Come on Two Door...


I will constantly dance like Gus and jump like Shawn until Laneway Festival Singapore 2011 is officially over.

cool story br0
