December 2008
oh! i forgot to mention.
on saturday and sunday here in ubud, it was the “scooter culture celebration 2008” festival in the football field off monkey forest road.
holy shit! i’ve never seen so many wacky vespas in my whole life. i met some amazing people, from all over indonesia, even as far away as sumatra. i took heaps of photos, of course. it was pretty much one of the most...
hello!
i am in ubud, in an internet cafe off jalan raya ubud that offers “so fast and cheap!” internet for only Rp. 1000 for 10 minutes. that’s like, 20 cents. less, even. awesome. the screens are also giant and make photos look amazing.
so, yes. we’re staying just a few minutes outside of ubud so i can’t walk into town without dying of the heat and humidity to find...
We're all going on a... Summer Photoday
heute-und:
Wow, what a crap pun.
ATP Buller, Bleeding Through, Misery Signals, Boys of Summer, and Propaganhi. Wooty McWootlestien. Hardcore shows galore. Now to sort out NIN Sideshow access…
Who are you shooting these for?

Just realised why tumblr has been so quite, its cause kate has left!
There has been a definate lack of art today!
So true.
aw boys, i’m flattered.

Damn it people! The Lykke Li phoner that was supposed to go ahead tonight was cancelled due to the artist taking some much needed rest and I need to re-word my of Montreal interview questions for Bryan because Kevin Barnes is taking time off from interviews.
Kevin Barnes! I had very thoughtful and somewhat hardhitting questions for you! My everlasting admiration for you will be...

tarts:
- rain on hot sidewalks
- warm newsprint
- baking (also: cinnamon toast)
- night air, after the alcoholic stickiness of gig venues
- sunburnt skin layered with sweat and sun-lotion and the sea
So! I made it to Bali. We’re in Sanur right now, and then on Tuesday we go up to Ubud. Yesterday was my 21st birthday, and it was fab. Far better than my ridiculously horrible 18th birthday, which although it was spent in London, it was pretty much the worst birthday I’ve ever had.
Anyway! I just wanted to check in. Hope you guys are all doing well. I had so many birthday emails,...
sleep time soon! i have to be up at 4.30am to go to the airport.
i’ll be back from bali on january 2nd, but no doubt i’ll find time for an internet cafe and a quick tumblr-check before then. otherwise, i hope you all have a merry christmas and a happy new year’s, and i’ll see you on the other side!
my email is kate@sidestagezine.com, if you want to get in touch with me...

I’ve been on the phone for a few hours and now come back to see this? WTF is going on? Why can’t people be NICE to others. We are all humans and deserve that decency. Now I see Sarah has deactivated, how sad, what kind of people would make someone so...

It doesn’t even matter much, does it? Sitting in this puddle of emotion, we are just two soldiers waiting for the attack. Soon the bombs will fall and the bells will ring; and my love, we will join the battle. You should have known that it wouldn’t last. The puddle will dry up and the troops will march though the streets, singing war songs and...

i am inexplicably really miserable and snappy today. i think it might be because i’ve just realised i kind of have to leave the only place i actually have more than three friends anymore next week, and i’m going to have to go through that period where you have to be super social all the time to make new ones, and i hate that so much. i don’t know anyone in sydney anymore really,...

Wow, cool. This is something I’d be interested in, for sure. When are you looking at going? And doing what sort of stuff?
February-March. We’ll be telling the stories of women coming out of prostitution in Thailand, and some stories from the Burmese border, maybe. I’m keeping it small this go round, since it’s the first trip I’m planning myself.

It seems like all I ever talk about anymore is school and food because, well, that is pretty much what my life has revolved around for the last 3 weeks. My essay-writing and studying has been interspersed with meals so, really, it only makes sense that I would blog about this all the time.
I feel like every couple of days I have to acknowledge my sad existence as a university...
