Such A Weekend

Friday

So I had really..fuckin..great weekend! Despite the fact I was running seriously low on cash. So Briefly Heres what happened - Got Up, Went To Tech.. Totally crap waste of time. Sometimes I really can't be bothered with these 9-11 days, its like we just get there and its nearly time to go. But today we had to make a serious effort because we had these Inspectors in to make sure the tutors weren't stealing paper clips and generally making sure we're getting a good education. But like... its quite funny, The majority of tech tutors suck! (not all of them by the way) its like I gotta come all the way from Kircubbin and sometimes - They dont even show up, and when they do show up - I dont have a clue what the FUCK theyre talking about... I think sometimes that Tech tutors are just wasters like the people who attend tech and thats why they cant get jobs at proper schools & are probably smoking bongs & taking mushrooms in the same bushes that students do during breaks when we're in class etc..But ofcourse on the week of the inspector visits its all like "Yeah..we're good teachers" and stuff, making these big ass powerpoint presentations going through everything thoroughly. But then the moment they exit the door, its back to the basic routine of just doin fuck all!! but anyway... When I got out I decided to work down at my dads to earn some extra cash for a carry out for Blackies get together, hes got his own place now so he told me to swing by. So I did just that, but first off I decided to get a carry out, but to my horror, I forgot my ID and couldnt get served (Damn) its was so shit! so I had to walk around bangor for a while and try find people I knew to buy me drink. It took a long time but I was in luck, because I saw Alex round the food court and asked him, and he kindly purchased a bottle of buckfast and a big bottle of Stella for me...! So I was set. Went round to Blackies and got relatively drunk - well not really - Was just in a chilled out, smile on my face kinda state. Wasnt really up for getting plastered anyway, Just chilled out wit Jay and Blackie Listenin to some music and occasionally checkin on the others who were totally off their faces. Was like that till bout 4am before we decided to call it a night....

Saturday

Woke up round 8am and was wonderin wether I was arsed to go tonight to see fabio - radio 1 drum n bass DJ - he was DJ'ing in the The Menagerie. Didnt think it was feasible because...

1)Due to lack of sleep i'd probably be knackered later on
2) Lack of cash
3) Lack Of ID - As I said earlier - so there was a chance i wouldnt even get in and wud be stuck in Belfast, and it was a huge inconvenience to go ALL the way to kircubbin just to get a passport - Biggest inconvenience ever!!

Dad offered me some more work anyway just to get cash so, I got my ass outta bed after only 4 hours sleep went down to cafe home and had a nice wee fry up - so damn good went to work did the usual and walked out wit the cash in hand. I met up wit Steve and Ian @ cornerhouse for some lunch which had now become a weekly thing and told them about my dilemma of possibly not going to Fabio. Ian informed me that Menagerie was a total dump and that "if you took a shit on the floor no-one wouldd even notice...nor care" (I originally thought this was an overexxageration, but I would later agree with the statement) So he said getting in would be piece of piss without ID and if I didnt get in I could just go to Petes house which is in Belfast. Sounded like a plan So after lunch I went back to Steves for a few hours kip. Round bout 9ish, Me & Steve chilled out with Myles and Barry. I drunk my carryout (Buckfast) and went round and picked up Enrique and descended towards Belfast. We parked in the menagerie car park quite bewildered wondering if this was actually the place? But as we walked towards the entrance, Ians comments came straight into the play and I knew we were here. In the distance I saw a rather shoddy looking design& an overused chalkboard with the words Fabio Live Tonight! As we entered I payed the necessary fee and was greeted by an eager and overly excited man, who was remiscent of the biker from the village people. He tapped me on the shoulder & informed me to have a good night. I went over and ordered my first pint of the night but to my disappointment they didnt have Budweiser (my favourite) so I opted for Carlsberg instead. As the hip hop blared, I gazed at this place with its dimly lit texture,its grungy environment & people dancing like some sort of fighting stance from tekken 3...I thought to myself... Man, this place really is a shithole. But Soon enough Fabio came on with joint in mouth, and he managed to make up for the crap venue with his tight mixing. And it turned into an amazing night, I danced all night, wit all d beyatches, big shout out to the chinese girl in particular! Afterwards we went back to Steves and after bantering drunkingly with Enqirue for a while, i passed out at about 3ish. I woke up the next morning without a hangover..and was still pissed! and was chilled out as fuck all sunday. So in general it was a fuckin amazing weekend! and thanx to every1 who contributed.
