Hello
I just had ice cream life is pretty good I don't really know why my blog exists I guess it's more for myself than for anyone else, so that in the future, I get to come here and read about the more significant events that have taken place in my teenage life. I guess it's also an outlet to get stuff out, especially when it's too much for twitter (gotta love the 140) so yeah. I do enjoy reading my primary school blog (and being disgusted with myself and my gross typing - you don't even wanna know). So yeah. I think I'm just writing this because I don't want to start studying BUT I HAVE TO so too bad for me bye.
Also, here's a picture of Ryan Lochte. Yay, Olympics. Oh and BYE JULYYYYY you were pretty great.

Damn.

(Watch these) Shorts.
I love these two shorts so much. They're both kind of similar in a 'tragic love story' kind of way but they have their differences as well (one's set in the past while the other's set in the future) but yeah they're really good and you should watch them if you have the time.
This first one is The Ghosts and the guys are cute and the story is interesting and yes watch it. It's about 15 minutes long so that's not too bad. It's just the right length and there are no loose ends (except, maybe, the end) so yeah.
THIS ONE HAS ANDREW GARFIELD AS THE MAIN GUY except he's a robot. So basically it's just Andrew Garfield's voice BUT IT'S BRITISH AND IT'S HIM AND IT'S SOOOOOO PLEASING TO THE EARS HAHAHA I didn't know it was him when I started watching it but a while after he finally started talking I decided that it was Andrew Garfield because I was in love with the voice + it sounded like him (AND WHEN THE CREDITS ROLLED I FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS HAHAHAHA). So yeah. It's kind of draggy though but the story is really sweet and Andrew Garfield's character is really sweet even though he's a robot and like yes watch this too.
It's quite long tho, like half an hour. That's pretty long right? For a youtube video?
So these are my two favourite shorts that I felt the need to share because they are so good and shorts are good and like yeah OKAY BYE

Unforgettable
The title reminds me of some kind of composition topic. Maybe I can write about experience in my compos next time HAHAHAHAHAHA
So, meeting blg was the best day every because they're my favourite band and I cannot stress how much I love them blablabla but really I don't think I'll be able to shut up about it for a while... It's getting better tho. I think. Anyway, I didn't draw many comparisons till today but I realised that my experience with blg was pretty similar to the one I had with the cab in some ways... But ultimately all I can say is that I'm just really blessed sigh I don't even know how these things actually ended up happening the way they did because they were totally unexpected and yes I'm just so grateful for these two opportunities I got this year. Well, here's to more opportunities to come, then!
So yeah basically one day (aka last Thursday the 12th of July and also the day before Friday the 13th and Chem SPA), I went onto twitter and I saw Diane spazzing.... And then I scrolled up and I saw Holing spazzing..... So I was like omg what is going on and obviously I knew it had something to do with blg and I'm pretty sure I was hoping really hard that it would have something to do with meeting them...... AND IT WAS. Not too long later, Diane called me and she was like, "Rebekah.... Have you figured it out yet?" and I was like "NO WHAAAAT" and kind of freaking out yet trying very hard to lower my expectations in case I was about to be disappointed.... AND THEN SHE BROKE THE NEWS and all I could say was "oh my gosh" and then I was kind of in shock and a million things were rushing through my head and I just continued talking to Diane in a half-dreamlike state hahahaha man I bet it would've been funny to see my reaction I think I was trying really hard to be calm HAHA. So yeah it was only when I hung up that it really set in. I was going to meet Boys Like Girls. I was going to meet Martin Johnson. Martin Johnson. Oh my gosh. HAHAHAHAHA and then I really starte spazzing I told all my friends that I had gotten to try to help me win the 91.3 passes and I spazzed on twitter and I spazzed to myself and I spazzed to my siblings (my brother promptly began to try and guess who I was spazzing about and I'm pretty sure "Justin Bieber" came up several times sigh poor boy) and like yeahhhhh I was kind of normal most of the time after that hahaha. My friends were really great tho they entertained my spazzing and congratulated me hahaha you guys were wonderful I LOVE YOU ALL but I guess that really shows how I love blg so much that everyone knows it HAHAHAHA.
So yes I went to school on Friday being excited for so many reasons (1. SPA to be over 2. Blessed to be a Blessing 3. OBVIOUSLY TO MEET BLG) ahahahahaha so yeah and I got the chance to go for the soundcheck too and that was already so perfect (I also realised that like what happened with the cab, I got to see them for two consecutive days!!!) and I was just so happy already but at the same time I was really trying not to get my hopes too high up because I was kind of afraid that our m&g would just be something really short and rushed but I didn't caaaare I would be meeting Martin Johnson and Paul DiGiovanni and John Keefe and Morgan Dorr in person for the first (well, secondish for Paul and Morgan since I kind of met them after the soundcheck) time in my life after so many years of being kind of really obsessed with blg....
AND SO SUNDAY CAME and I went to Vivo a little earlier because I couldn't get anything done at home and I tried to study at Carl's Jr and get an Oreo ice cream sandwich but both didn't work out so I ended up just getting some Boost Juice (and they were blasting Love Drunk!!!!) before going up to meet the others. When I got there Jesslyn, Holing, Kathy and Grace were already there and so I joined them an chatted with them for a while before Nat and Diane came and as we walked to the taxi stand I knew I was going to have a great day just spending time with the girls because we all had so much in common and conversations were so easy and fun and we were all equally excited but not overly spazzy and fangirly. So we cabbed to the hotel (we also got to get into a cab and tell the uncle to "FOLLOW THAT TAXI!!!" yes that was fun) and then while we were in the cab John tweeted about just getting back from the gym and we were so excited just wondering if they were staying in that same hotel that we were going to. The journey to the hotel was really short and I also casually replied John asking him to come down to the lobby (even though we didn't know if they were really staying there). So we settled down in the lobby and just sat and talked and took photos which was fun... And then when I randomly checked my phone I saw that John had replied my tweet and I spazzed and started hitting the object nearest to me (which was Jesslyn's leg hahaha) in excitement and we were all so excited ahhhhh hahahaha. And then we kind did just hung around for a while (not really wanting to move when the hotel staff asked us if we wanted to go up to the conference room waiting area first) until Adam the Intern (who was kinda weird and annoying but still pretty funny) came and Jesslyn and Grace sat with him and the other contest winners so that he could brief them. So we went up first and when we stepped into the lift we saw a mirror and it was like "OOH MIRROR LET'S TAKE A PICTURE" and so we did hahaha AND LATER ON, JOHN POSTED A PICTURE OF THE BAND TAKING A SIMILAR SHOT IN THAT SAME LIFT ON INSTAGRAM it was such a crazy coincidence idek. So yeah we headed up and eventually ended up on a couch outside the conference room where we sat patiently for idek how long okay. It was long. But it really didn't feel long. After a while we heard voices AND THE BOYS WERE THERE and as they walked down the corridor we kind of just freaked out internally and casually waved to them and shouted hello HAHAHA and Diane and Kathy held up signs and like Martin's smile when he saw them ahhhhhhtfjskdj it was so cuteeeeeeeeeeee. And then they went in and we were left outside to wait some more but we were so excited the didn't matter that much hahaha. A journalist from Seventeen came to sit with us while waiting for her turn to interview them so being my weird high self I started asking her about being a journalist and stuff and I'm sure she was pretty amused by me so you are welcome, journalist. I didn't ask for her name but based on the articles she told me she wrote, I'm sure it won't be hard to find out HAHA. Oh look there's a copy of Seventeen on my desk (the Chloe Moretz one because she is amazing)..... Okay I think I know who she is omg she writes like half the stuff in here what the heck hahahahahaha that's crazy. Also OH MY GOSH THIS POST IS SO LONG AND I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO THE MAIN EVENT YET COME ON REBEKAH HURRY UP hahaha ok wait I just need to add that Martin went to the toilet many many times and one of the times he went with John and we were in the toilet too so when we went out we hear their voices and kind of mini freaked before deciding to play it cool and try not to act like we had been stalking them so when they came out really soon after we started walking and then we turned and said hi and Martin said hi back and turned back to continue his conversation with John so we were all just walking awkwardly side by side for a while it was so retarded hahahahahaha.
OKAY AND THEN FINALLY THEY TOLD US THE PRESS INTERVIEWS WERE ALMOST DONE and they moved us to another couch to wait for them and I was pretty bummed because the couch they moved us to was like on the way out of the place so I figured they would only have time for a quick photo or something BUT I WAS WRONG HAHAHAHA so when they emerged out from the room they went to sit on the couch we were moved from and we were just like FJDKWRTYUI but then they got up and started walking over and fjdieksldjsk the whole thing was just so exciting and I have a loooong video of the whole thing because I left Lyss' camera running and hung it around my neck HAHAHA so yeah I managed to get everything on video yay. But basically they came over and introduced themselves (not like they needed any introduction...) and I was so excited I asked Paul for a photo almost immediately hahahaha so retarded sigh. But yeah then Diane gave Martin the "2 Days" sign paper thing and he gave this dude his phone to take a picture with and so the four of them walked to the other side and set up for a picture and the guy was going to take the picture when Martin looked up and went "No, we want them in the picture too." So we ran over and FJEJWOHDOEBD we took the photo that ended up on Martin's instagram (I was pretty sure that he would post it so I was just waiting for it to appear on my instagram feed HAHAHA). And I stood next to Morgan and our conversation kind of went like this: "Hi Morgan" "Hey!" "Remember my name?" "Yeaaaaah... No..." "You suck.." "What is it again?" "Rebekah..." and then he put his arm around me for the photo and didn't forget my name again that day HAHAHA for all I know he could've forgotten it by now but let's just imagine he hasn't shall we..
So then we moved on to individual shots with the group and I went last and Martin and Paul were mumbling about something and I was pretty sure they were talking about my shirt (and Kathy's, since she was wearing the same one) so I turned around and asked them what they were talking about which led to the video I posted in the previous post hahaha. So after that we all just hung out for a while and I managed to talk to all of them but I talked to Martin the most, first about the instax we took (he was soooo amused by the instax we took he held on to it and kept shaking it until the picture appeared... He was so fixated on it that he didn't even respond at first when we asked him to sign Diane's phone HAHAHA. He also swore at it. Yes, he swore at an instax. It was pretty adorable, considering how ridiculous and funny that whole incident was) and then when I asked him if they were coming back in two years (because they've been coming every two years since 08') he said that they'd probably be back next year and then I asked if he'll remember us and he was like "I will remember you." and okay seriously I can recite this part okay I was like "Yeah? Do you remember my name? You don't even know my name..."
"I won't remember your name.. But I'll remember your face. I bet Morgan remembers your name, though."
"Yeah that's cause I made him remember it.."
"Rebekah!"
"YES"
HAHAHAHAHA I WAS SO SHOCKED because I never actually told him my name but he actually knew it (probably from Morgan calling me or something idek but omggggg) and I was just so happy hehehehe just thinking about it is making me happy oh man. But yes I really do love Martin Johnson arghgfhfdh I really love all of them actually but I just can't help but love Martin the most sigh. So yeah I also randomly asked Paul if I could touch his hair and he said yeah and I asked if it was gross and he said yeah too because he hadn't washed it right HAHAHA but yeah I touched it and it was kinda... Sticky? I don't know I guess he had a lot of product in his hair to make it stay up hahaha so I was like yeah it is (gross) and then I wiped my fingers on the sleeve of his muscular arm HAHAHAHAHAHA it was pretty funny. John was also super adorable like when I asked him if we could take a picture he was like "No" and I was like "No?" and then he was super cute he went "NO NO I WAS TALKING TO MARTIN" and then he hugged me as our instax was taken sighhhhhh. And Morgan... Oh Morgan. I was standing to the side just taking in everything that was going on and he suddenly went "Hey Rebekah whatchu need girl" and I kind of stunned and went "What??" and he repeated himself HAHAHA it was so funny so yeah we took another instax and I got him to sign it but he couldn't figure out how to work the marker an sighhhh he was just so adorable hahaha. And then before they left he was like "Rebekah... Be good okay?" and then he did this weird handshake thing where he like snapped and like yes I don't know how to explain it but basically I couldn't do it and I was like "I CAN'T SNAP I CAN'T DO THAT YOUR HAND IS TOO BIG YOU HAVE BASS HANDS" and everyone was like "hahaha bass hands" and he laughed and said "Wow I didn't know you guys knew that about bass players!" HAHAHAHAHAHA it was hilarious. So then they went down and we kind of spazzed for a while more before going down but then Morgan stopped to talk to us once more and we asked him when they were leaving and and where they were going and stuff and he was so cute he was like "We're going to London.... Wait no, Japan!" like he wasn't even sure where they were going HAHA. Then he took photos with Kathy and Natalie and then we asked him to do the video and he was such a sweetheart hahaha oh man it was so funny especially when he asked me to say something I was so shocked I couldn't think of anything to say hahahaha. But yes, he was very very nice. And this is kind of the end of my insanely long post. Is this even longer than my post about the cab? It should be. I only heard about the cab because Martin posted a video of him and Alex Deleon ok that was how I heard of them SO EVERYTHING STARTED FROM BLG. EVERYTHING. Sigh the 15th of July was such a good day, Leah even termed it "LEHBEKAH DAY" because she got to meet Jean Larivee that day too so yes we had really really great days. Oh man I'm really happy I got videos of practically everything tho because it really helps with the withdrawal and all HAHAHA although I constantly find myself thinking of things I should have done/said while I had the chance haha ah well hopefully there'll be a next time.... I really hope so.
Aaaaaand that's the end of my insanely long personal recount HAHAHAHAHA I'm sorry it's so long but then again I'm not that sorry because if you really cared about the details you would be fine with reading such a long post and if you didn't then you would've skipped parts/stopped reading it anyway. So sorry, I'm not sorry. HAHAHA OK NO THAT'S NOT VERY NICE OK SORRY SORRY BYE ❤

17 July 2012
So... Sunday.
The camera was hung around my neck and recording everything which is why you can't see their faces.
(Doesn't help that they're insanely tall too).
Morgan: We're talking about you, Rebekah.So this video is just one of the parts of my experience with meeting my favourite band since like 2007 (plus how awkward I am and annoying my annoying camera voice is sigh). But yes I SPENT MOST OF P6 SPAZZING OVER MARTIN JOHNSON AND BLG BECAUSE THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME THEY CAME and most of my primary school classmates would definitely remember all that... We used to sit at the back of the class and listen to 98.7fm on the radio and I remember them announcing that BLG would be going into the studio for an interview and I SCREAMED in class and everyone turned and stared at me it was pretty hilarious. I was just reading my p6 blog and yeah it was really quite bad and I was so retarded and I'm just laughing at myself then but omg I can't even begin to imagine how proud 12-year-old me would be of me right now. Then again it's pretty screwed up to think about a 12-year-old obsessing over a (then) 23-year-old man. Hahahahahahahahaha shit.
Me: Why?
Martin: Huh?
Me: What're you guys talking about?
Morgan: Your hair is really nice.
Me: Thank you.
Martin: You do have nice hair it's really soft. (AND THEN HE TOUCHES MY HAIR)
Me: (Being awkward and in shock) All your hair (pauses to breathe) is nice too.
Martin and Morgan: Thank you
Me: It's all standing up... (To Paul) Your.. Your hair is standing up.
Paul: I haven't washed mine in like..
Me: It's really high!
Paul: Am I doing okay? (says more stuff about washing his hair but my awkward self just couldn't stop rambling)
Me: It's really high you look a bit like Einstein you know there's this picture of Einstein with his hair..
Paul: I'm really smart thank you I appreciate it.
Morgan laughs.
BUT YES so on Sunday, I met Boys Like Girls and it was all thanks to The Martin Sayers and Diane and I've told this story countless times already but yes basically TMS did an interview for The Straits Times and then later on, (and it was really quite late because before that we were desperately trying to win passes from 91.3fm) Diane was told that she'd be getting meet and greet passes AND SO SHE BROUGHT US ALONG AND IT WAS GREAT AHHH. This is gonna be a really long post oh man. Arghhhhh no okay I'll probably post the details of our m&g another time because I'm really hungry and I've been in front of the computer for way too long now so yeah it will be soon and I hope I don't forget to post or get too lazy to do it but noooo I want the world to know what happened HAHAHAHAHA oh man keep replaying everything in my head and spazzing to Lyss again and again btw thank you so much for lending me your camera Lyss <3. But yeah watching the videos over and over again kind of help with the withdrawal so yes I am retarded what is wrong with me this is what blg does to me sigh. OKAY YAY FOOD BYE

Soundcheck (Of My Summer?)
Morgan on the drums + Martin's butt.
(One of the only photos I got HAHA the rest were videos.)
TODAY I WENT FOR BLG'S SOUNDCHECK AND IT WAS AMAZING. So like after 170th (WHICH WAS REALLY GOOD TOO) Diane whatsapped us telling us that Desmond had called her and told her they were having a soundcheck at Gardens By The Bay so because I was so nearby I practically ran there (aside from on the mrt I just stood on the mrt but I ran everywhere else) (then again I can't really run because of my knee so it was more of a faggy brisk walk damn). ANYWAY I managed to get to The Meadow on time despite getting lost and being all spazzy because the moment I got to GBTB I heard drums and I almost died but I didn't know how to get to the stage. So I just wandered around before sneaking in backstage to the side of the stage in front and stood awkwardly in the corner for a while HAHAHA. ANYWAY they are so good live so getting to watch them play like four songs was pretty amazing. Plus it made up for the fact that I'm not going for their actual concert. :-(
BUT ANYWAY it was super cool because there were so few of us there so it was like a private concert kinda thing and they could fool around and do stupid stuff like dance and say weird stuff (it was quite hilarious) and Martin would talk to us and stuff in between and it was like wow IT WAS LIKE A DREAM because BLG has been like my absolute favourite band since forever hahahaha it was probably the worst in p6 I used to scream in class over them it was funny. But yeah didn't get to meet them except Morgan who came down to talk to us and he was so cute he didn't wanna step onto this small patch of mud at first HAHAHAHAHA it was adorable. He gave us picks and I got a photo with him then I asked him if he'd recognise me when he sees me tomorrow and he asked me for my name and shook my hand and then introduced himself WHICH I JUST REALISED IS LIKE DEJA VU BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT JOEY DID TOO HAHAHAHAHA maybe it's a bassist thing.. But like yeah they are so SO good live both Martin and Morgan have amazing voices I really wish I was going for the concert tomorrow but I'm pretty sure I would just die in the crowd. HOPEFULLY THERE'LL BE A NEXT TIME they seem to come back every 2 years hahahaha guess they just can't stay away. ;-)
AH WELL still so super excited for tomorrow hahahahaha bye.
