Welcome to lessons in life, I’ve messed mine up a hell of alot in the past, so I thought I’d give some people some great pieces of advice that will hopefully aid at least 1 person into not bein a twat like me and doing something stupid.
Reading Festival 200…..5 i think – Stay away from drugs ……… lmao … as if you’d listen to that … ok how bout dont abandon those you care for
As you can imagine – ace music festival therefore music drink, drugs, sex …. WRONG
I went with a good mate Sez (Sarah Louise Parkins … i think … i suck with names), she wanted me lol, n i thought she was hot … was sharing a sleepin bag etc… so things probably would have happened … until I wondered off with sum people I knew from uni and spent the day with them over Sez… all cause one of them (so I thought) was a sure thing … I was later to find out otherwise … but I ended up growing to REALLY REALLY !! like this gal and we’re still good mates today and coincidently…her name is also Sarah…Sarah something or another. Anyway, thats straying off the story, me doing that pissed off my mate Sez and she ended up going home and we haven’t spoken since, and she was probably my best friend at the time … I spent most that weekend with Sarah and her mate Naomi (who I knew from uni) … and with Nai and Fluffy (fluffy was a housemate of mine at uni and a great guy, nai was his gal n i loved her to bits …. they’re engaged to be married … am so happy for em ).
But anyway, when was with Sarah and Naomi … we got upto a little mischief … drinkin lots … fooling about and doing a few little drugs … namley mdma, coke and ketamine (I aint proud of it this is part of what the lesson revolves around), we mixed them all along with shots of whatever we could find, and weed where we got any. I was fine until I sunday … and by god it hit me so bad then … we were walking into the arena after a pretty big line of the 3 of em mixed and I was shaking, almost in tears, holding onto people to stop myself from what I thought was floating away, when really I was fine just tripping to hell.
For those of you that don’t know … theres a metal walkway over the really boggy, heavily used parts of the festival field … namely the main roads of the campsite … walking over there after that combo near killed me. I was out for the complete Iggy Pop set (no great loss) and mosta Maidens (other than a couple songs I got up to headbang too but felt so bad afterwards).
If I could go back … then without a doubt, I’d have no abandoned my dear friend and not done the drugs either (well maybe a couple … not as many as i did thou) … and I’d still have one of the best friends I ever had in my life … I could tell her anything and she never judged me … jus that pushed it a little too far.
I guess all I’m tryin to say is although that kinda atmosphere is a thrill, and its a chance to experiment and fuck about, be careful you really don’t piss off those you truly care bout at the same time, I did, and it backfired on me.
Fluffy and Nai and still good mates with, Naomi … I haven’t spoken to her for years, same with Sez … Sarah I only just properly started talking to again over past couple weeks as well … I missed her like … and I miss Sez too… she was cool.
Anyway, I know its random and miles off shit I normally write, but hey .. its something people can learn from… I’m gonna write something proper in a little bit … just gonna add a couple new contributions to a site I’m working on first, then I’ll get onto adding a nice new blog … was thinking of just something a little lighter then this one … how bout er … I know … we’ll preview a couple games, a couple random questions I want peoples thoughts on, review a movie and I don’t know what else … probably do it when I get in tonight … but gonna write some shit laters fo’sure
xx Peace People xx
