The Official Love Post

So I haven’t posted here in god knows how long, I’ve been super busy with school and stuff and nothing interesting happens in my life when you guys aren’t at school. (sad faces all round).

But this is quite significant and I figured it needed some clarification so here it is, you’ve been waiting for it and now it’s here, the commemorative, one-year post for myself and my darling Conor Richards.

Conor and Darcie

It was a delightful evening in the 22nd of May 2010, the angels and demons party was already in full swing by the time I got there. There were angels angeling, demons demoning, and general party times all around.

When I saw Conor at that party, I knew there was something different about him...


You know, apart from the fact he was dressed as a construction worker and not as an angel or a demon. BUT even though he was dressed differently, I began to see him in a different light. Not just because of the disco lights, either.

We were sitting on the esky, being groovy, talking and chatting. Annie came up to us and started to talk about me being a princess and Conor being a dirty worker and how it was a fairytale waiting to happen, and I'd run away with him and be in love forever.

Little did we know...


After that night there was much teasing from friends (what are friends for anyway) but we pulled through the teasing. Our first few weeks were shifty, both of us having just become free from previous relationships. I didn't realise that Conor hadn't been broken up for very long before I decided I wanted to be with him, but when I did find out, I realised I didn't actually care anyway.

I was annoying at first, not being sure whether I wanted to be in a full on relationship, whether we were going to be bandmates with benefits or boyfriend and girlfriend (plus Jordan's constant 'spank the monkey/walrus' references didn't exactly help. thanks Eddie) but after a few weeks it became clear to me that there was nobody else I wanted to be with.

Our relationship became more and more fantastic, we did everything together and spent so much time together and became closer than ever. We became kimono-partners and we began to realise how much we actually liked each other (and Ben really liked us too!)

Our garden of love was nourished by the band, who relentlessly teased and made fun of us but were secretly jealous of our inter-musical relationship. A drummer and a bassist, the ultimate love story.



One night Conor came over for dinner and movies, and as we were sitting on the couch watching Pride and Prejudice, I realised that I had found the perfect person. Somebody who would eat twisties with me whenever we liked, went to the zoo with me, took me shopping even though I'm annoying, put up with my stupid jokes and most of all, watch P&P with me!

But I chickened out and instead of saying it aloud I texted him after he had left, and I told him I loved him.

Love!


Without even knowing it, Conor was the one person in my life who made me feel totally happy whenever we were together, helped me smile when I felt down, was there for me when I was a wreck, stayed by my side even when I was moody. He's the one person I can trust with anything, rely on for anything, know what I need when I'm feeling down (lolly bananas) and love me when I need it most. I hope I can be half as amazing to him as he is to me. We all know he's a fantastic person and I'm unbelievably lucky to have him and I'm sorry to all those who had a crush on Conor when I stole him away (that is, Miguel, Eddy, Brandon, Ben, McGee, etc. mostly man-crushes.)

And now I'm in with the family! :D


Some pictures of the happy couple? Well sure...



And now, a year after the angel and construction worker had eloped, we are as happy as ever (more so, in fact) and we'd like to thank all of the third wheels who have been there with us through it all, and been happy for us and made fun of us and been generally fantastic.

Firstly, BRANDON and JORDAN
The first official 3rd wheels
Always lingering, always awkward, always fantastic. Thanks guys :)


Secondly, WONG
The second official 3rd wheel
The source for helpful relationship information (though I'm still not sure why)


Thirdly, SAMMIE
The 3rd wheel who is our adopted Asian child
Need we say more?


And everybody else who has always been there for us and been with us from the start, been our friends and letting us be one of the annoying cutesy couples in the group.

And yet the question still remains... who was the founder of this love? Was it Jordan, whose peer pressure at the party was too much to take? Or was it Chris, who called Conor names? Or Brittany+Ashlyn, for having a party in the first place?

In any case, thankyou so much to everybody, and congratulations to us :D We are a little bit too impressed, very happy and in way too much love to be physically possible.

oh and also WE ARE SO CUTE and cuter than you :D

Henceforth, let's keep being in love.

The Pope Song

So, Tim Minchin's awesome new song (I say new, it's... newer than his other songs) 'The Pope Song', is another genius song written by this amazing musician. And when you take out all the swear words, he's got a really good argument going.

Unfortunately, nobody can watch the cartoon on YouTube unless they're over 18, because some douche flagged it as inappropriate. If you find it inappropriate, DON'T WATCH IT. Gosh.

So I thought, fuck the motherfucker! I'm uploading it to the blog.

Don't be offended if you're religious, and if you're not, then enjoy. :D

I would also recommend listening to it while reading the lyrics. It makes more sense and it's even funnier, but the cartoon is also ridiculously funny.





Lyrics:

Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker
He's a fucking motherfucker

Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the fucking fucker
Fuck the motherfucker
He's a total fucking fucker

Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker
Fucking fuck the motherfucker

Fuck the motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucking Pope.


Fuck the motherfucker
And fuck you, motherfucker
If you think that motherfucker is sacred
If you cover for another motherfucker
Who's a kiddie fucker
Fuck you, you're no better
Than the motherfucking rapist

And if you don't like the swearing
That this motherfucker forced from me
And reckon it shows moral
Or intellectual paucity
Then fuck you, motherfucker
This is language one employs
When one is fucking cross
About fuckers fucking boys

I don't give a fuck if calling
The Pope a motherfucker
Means you unthinkingly brand me
An unthinking apostate
This has nowt to do with other
Fucking Godly motherfuckers
I'm not interested right now
In fucking scriptural debate

There are other fucking songs
And there are other fucking ways
I'll be a religious apologist
On other fucking days
And the fact remains if you protect
A single kiddie fucker
The Pope, or Prince or Plumber
You're a fucking motherfucker

You see I don't give a fuck about
What any other motherfucker
Believes about Jesus
And his motherfucking mother
I've no problem with the spiritual beliefs
Of all these fuckers
While those beliefs don't impact
On the happiness of others

But if you build your Church on claims
Of fucking moral authority
And with threats of Hell impose it
On others in society
Then you, you motherfuckers
Can expect some fucking wrath
When it turns out you've been fucking us
In our motherfucking asses

So fuck the motherfucker
And fuck you, motherfucker
If you're still a motherfucking Papist
If he covered for a single motherfucker
Who's a kiddie fucker
Fuck the motherfucker
He's as evil as the rapist

And if you look into your motherfucking heart
And tell me true
If this motherfucking stupid fucking
Song offended you
With its filthy fucking language
And its fucking disrespect
If it made you feel angry
Go ahead and write a letter

But if you find me more offensive
Than the fucking possibility
That the Pope protected priests
While they were getting fucking fiddly
Then listen to me motherfucker
This here is a fact:
You are just as morally misguided
As that motherfucking, power hungry
Self-aggrandised bigot
In the stupid fucking hat.


Yay!

Henceforth, have fun getting this song stuck in your head. It's quite catchy.

Happy Snaps from Bokke's Party

So last night we had a marvelous time at Daniel and Christine's 18th party... as usual, I was impressed by the high quality dancing and throw-downing that goes on at these parties. Everyone was dressed wonderfully, best dressed goes to Conrad because he wore a tie and McGee and Benramen come in at a close second with their incredibly sexual scarves.
Conrad also won best dancer, because he actually dances. Most calories burned is Jordan Edwards, with his ever-persistent hardcore/crabcore/throwdown/slamdancing. Never fails to impress.
So thanks to the Wigston's for a great night out and general funsies when we'd otherwise be home being lonely and eating chocolate. Without further ado, here are my photos.














And I'm (not) proud to introduce the Pedo's Apprentice... his name is Joseph Fritzel-Blay.
... D:


Here is the master and the apprentice. Together, no creature goes unharmed. Lock up your daughters, sons, wives, husbands, cats, dogs, chickens and any others who are at risk, aka everything that ever existed, ever.



And now, the special sealed section, called 'Pictures of Tom'.






...Darcie wins.
Henceforth, holidays and study. Have fun with that.

You Tell Me

Girl or Boy?



Granted, it sounds incredibly mean to ask but I just wanted to see what you thought. I'm not discriminating or anything, this kid is amazing.
Tell me what you think.

My lack of blogging.

Well I thought I did alright on the holiday blog, but I didn't end up blogging about London, which is annoying because I loved London so much. Eventually I'll write in the last few days, after I've caught up on schoolwork/band/tennis/life in general.
And after I am less sleep deprived.
Henceforth, I'm back at Henceforth now :)
Please continue all being awesome until further notice.

Travel Blog

Well howdy. Unless you hadn't heard (or I hadn't fried your brains with my endless rambling on about it) I'm going on a holiday this week. Pretty snazzy, wouldn't you say?
So, as of Thursday, this blog is on hiatus. I have set up a separate blog for my travels because it's going to be a different style of blogging, more like a journal than just meaningless babble that I decide I'd like to tell the entire internet about.
I'll probably have a few blogs on here between now and then but as of Thursday, if you'd like to know the goings on of my holiday, where I am and such, and perhaps chit-chat about how cool it is being a space cowboy, then head on over to The Other Blog which will be the temporary blogspace for the four weeks of my holiday.
Henceforth, I'll be henceforth'ing till Thursday, and after that I'll see you on the other blog. There's a tab up the top for it as well, next to leekspin.
And I also updated the leekspin page. :D

Makeover for the Blog

Yes, I should probably be studying but I got bored, drew a boat and now it's the new design for my Blog. I think it's quite nice, and a little more effort was involved with this one, unlike the last one. It's also prettier and neater and generally more cool looking.
Good? Bad? Let me know what you're thinking.
Henceforth, this is the new blog design for the indefinite future. Hope you like it.

Edit: Is the boat flying? Umm, yes. I suppose it is, isn't it?

Sebastian's Voodoo - short film

It's won a number of awards and for good reason. Can't really describe it, just watch.

Say hello...

To the mighty RANDALL!!



:D :D

he is mine, all mine.
and he's fat and loud.
perfection!!


significantly bigger/louder/better than my old one.
my neighbors are going to hate me even more but it's alright because I make up for it with epicness....
or something.

Henceforth, you shall bow down to my mighty bass amp !!! mwahaha

New Amp

Haven't got it yet but I've bought it.
Second hand, of course. I'm not that rich...
75w 15'' Randall bass amp.
worth $600, got it for $150.
guy clearly has no idea about moneys and I'm willing to take advantage of that.
And because I'm really cheap I spent this morning helping mulch the garden to take a further $50 off the price.
And then I cleaned all the cupboards in the living room for an extra $50.
So technically, I only spent $50 on a $600 amp.
Henceforth, I have a new amp.
Almost.
Soon, darling...



What should I name this one? Call it Randall?

Defy Gravity!

Holy hell, this is complex. but surprisingly fun to read.
It's a comparison of gravity levels on different planets and satellites in our solar system. Sorry if you're not quite as fascinated by outer space as I am. :D
Henceforth, you can't defy gravity. Ever. You can try, but you will fail... mwahaha.

Best animated movie evar

How To Train Your Dragon
Oh my Amadeus, what an amazing movie! :D I took my cousins to go see it (it's a good excuse to go see a kid's movie) and Holy Moses it was the best movie I've seen all year! cough, yet... Iron Man II is coming out soon, but this is the best kids movie. :D
I read the book when I was just a youngling and I loved it, and the movie was even better. Toothless is the CUTEST dragon I have ever seen.




I WANT ONE I WANT ONE I WANT ONE!!!

So get your butts down to the cinema, get on those 3D glasses (the same ones they used for Avatar... I really wanted retro ones, but meh) and watch this amazing movie!
Cute AND firebreathing - much like myself.
Henceforth, I want a dragon. Reckon I can buy one online?
