Meet and Greet with an Arctic Monkey

So last weekend was one looong weekend.

Thursday me and Bon drove back to Sydney after breaky at Ellies with Em.
Got to Sydney, Bon had her doctors appointment, went to Eastgarden's fgor a spot of shopping, did a drive by of the liquor land and headed home to load up for the Arctic Monkeys after party.
So drank copious amounts of alcohol, got completely trashed then found myself at fringe bar. After some dancing, on my part, that should be outlawed, i found myself outside having a smoke break and chatting to those outside doing the same.

So across the way I spot this spunky looking guy in a leather jaket and decide yesss i am going to talk to you, so i walk up and in my way is this very large tall man. so i start chatting to him innocently enough and ask if hes a bouncer here, because he looks like it, but hes like no. i gently push my way past to get to my destination. delicious man in leather jacket.
so we start chatting, i dont know what about, but i remember being so drunk i could hardly focus on his face, but i heard this lovely english accent so i ask him where hes from and he tells me brazil. i didnt register that it didnt make sense but i continued none-the-less, saying i knew a guy staying in sydney from brazil. he politely asked me the guys name and i was like ivan, and hes like, oh i know him!. i was like OMG are u serious! and thought it was the best thing out. after a laugh, me at 'oh what a small world' and him at me, he says he has to head back inside, so i farewell him and his large friend, who i later find out was a body guard, and there you go, i had a facinationg story to tell people the next night after bdo. the night i met an arctic monkey.

So we get back to bons, im being loud and unmanegable, and end up passing out on bons bed, and axel wakes me up at 7;30, so to the balcony for a smoke, to the kitchen to heat up the reminents of last nights 5am trip to maccas and the day has begun.
Buy bottle of gin. Pour said bottle of gin into hip flask and hide in the very convenient gutsquashers. At BDo by lunch time and its sooo hot! Head to lillyworld to chill for a bit, then to ting tings but WAY ridiculuosly packed so head back to the grass to sit. new produce stage and watch a few bands there, as well as lupe fiasco, ajax, arctic monkeys prodigy, purple sneakers djs, other assortment of djs. good day. despite the fact that i was heniously hungover, and i know bon was a little anoyed at me cos i didnt talk much, and no matter how much i drank, and the fact that we sculled a hip flask of gin, i couldnt reach my high. but prodgiy went off, ive never dnaced so hard it was AMAZING.

headed to purple sneakers for afterparty and ben lucids bday, mostly hung out upstairs, then ventured down to the outside area where i met santa and his little helpers. lol not really, but the guy was named santa. and he was with his friends. talked to this guy matt id met on nye and at sneakers the following night, had a decent chat. jimmy ignored me so i ingored him lol saw him hooking up with a heniously ugly chick, good for you man! haha.

and to wrap it up, i arrived at central station the following day at 3.30pm for my train, and due to trackworks didnt arrive home until 9:45.
needless to say, over 6 hours of waiting, buses and trains, i was VERY happy to get home.

AND that, my friends, was my epic weekend.
