gaypride Blog and Journals

Firstly I'd just like to point out that I haven't used the internet since friday! Are you proud? My internet addiction isn't as bad as I thought!

So friday was fun stuffs, kind of odd at first. I'm now phoneless because my dad cut my contract off because nobody has any money anymore (which is fine, but some sort of warning that was more than three days before the end of the month would have been nice), and I was meeting Kev where he works in Gosforth...I haven't been to Gosforth since I was like twelve...So he had to Facebook directions to me the night before...They reminded me of this: http://www.thesistersofmercy.com/error404page.html infact swap "remove cheap sunglasses" for "empty tower" and it's almost perfect!
As it happens the directions were perfect, at least I think they were, the note paper I had them written down on ended up all musy from the relentless rain, honestly worst rain ever! I started out clinging to a pink umbrella but eventually gave up because I was getting soaked anyway :(
So I eventually got there, waited about five minutes until he finished work then we walked to a Weatherspoons through the torrential rain and ate (OMG a Weatherspoons that actually had Vege-burgers in!).

Then came the insane journey of doom! Apprently getting to Whitley Bay from Gosforth is usually pretty simple...Not when the metro tracks are flooded it's not!
We had to get on a metro for two stops, get off, get a bus that looked like it had just travelled forward in time from the mid-sixties and then get another metro for a few stops. When we got off the metro at Whitley Bay I swear half of the North Sea blew into my face!

Boneyard was great, Memento Mori were fab, it was just a little bit empty, but I think that probably has a bit to do with the weather and maybe the state of transport. I dunno though maybe I'm a little odd but I'd rather be in a nice warm pub with fun people than at home watching the rain fall...Does that make me odd? Oh I met my Charnel House intro thread hijacker!

Saterday morning was beyond strange...Apparently I missed a few people when I was telling people I no longer had a working phone and somehow managed to guilt trip Bloodmyer into coming out WITHOUGHT DOING ANYTHING! See she said she was coming to Pride then Charnel afterwards but she texted me at 7:55 (when I was still sleeping...Who wakes up at 7:55 on a Saterday? I'd have slept until noon if I didn't have to be at Newcastle Civic centre at 11:30) to say the weather was awful and she wasn't coming out. I got up at 9, read the text, poked my head out the curtains and was dazzled by sunlight...Bad weather? WTF? Had a bit of an inner fume (I've had a rediculous amount of people lately who get me to do stuff for them but when I want them to come out they find an excuse. I shouldn't have fumed at Blood because she hardly ever does that), anyways five mintues later I got another text asking if I was angry because I wasn't texting back. I COULDN'T TEXT BACK! about ten minutes later I got another one saying she was coming out anyways...I was like how on earth should I feel? Amussed? Angry? Guilty for guilt tripping her even though I didn't really? WTF?

So by this point I was all sorted, giant wig...Check! Long black dress that still manages to be revealing...Check! Killer shoes of doom! Check! Remove the cat that seemed facinated that I was wearing something that covered my knees...Ouch ouch damn claws check!
So after Kev let me out of the building I went and stood at the bus stop (well err, obviously...How else was I supposed to get to Newcastle?) and there was this bloke standing there who then rather creepshly came over and in the pervyest voice ON EARTH said "You look loevely pet...Where you going?"
To which I replied
"Gay pride!", he kid of made an "Oh" noise and promptly shut up!

Got a bunch of funny stares when I got off the bus and cut up Northumberland street to get to the civic, then got all shocked by how few people were actually at the Civic (Hello it's 40 years since the Stonewall riots this year, do people not appreciate that if it wasn't for that, there'd be no Gay Pride? Or that there'd be no Gay Rights? And that people probably wouldn't remember Judy Garland's Deathday?).
Spotted Gary pretty quickley, and yes, he'd out done me YET AGAIN! Greek Goddess this year! Apparently he's wearing orange and brown next year, I think he might be pulling my leg though...
Had a bit of a kerfuffle trying to find Bloodmyer but we found eachother eventually (She rang me and I said I was the person leaping around franticly next to Dorathy from the Wizard of Oz (See, see someone remembered Judy), and somehow she found me! We then set out to find Psymon and his girlfriend. I'm most annoyed at Psymon...He thought I was Morticia Adams (Hello? Mort has straight hair and a fishtail dress!), and then his friend who I've never met before thought I was ment to be Amy Winehouse (Noooooooooooooooo!), so I proceeded to terrorfy the lot of them by explaining that I was Elvira and announced that I'm "Much more than a great set of boobs!" complete with boob grab :D
At ten to twelve the crowd seemed to quadruple in size all of a sudden, the Bangshees started drumming and suddenly we were off!
For the second year in a row the BNP were marching at the same time in a different place and fortunatly we got no trouble from them (that half a braincell they share between them obviously told them that messing with Vikki Paris in those heels is a baaaad idea), actually there wasn't any trouble from anybody this year, I remember last year there were a few protesters around Monumane and I became suddenly very aware that I was clutching a banner that read "God save the Queens", and there was a guy who shouted "Go home fags" (What? To Gateshead?), but not this year, this year there was just a really crabby looking old lady at a bus stop next to the green looking like we'd just offered her poison...We waved cheerily :D

Pretty much as soon as we got to the park I had to change out of my killer shoes of doom and into my huuuge walking boots, ouch ouch the foot pain! Ran into Gavin and was nearly hugged to death! Then we wandered around looking for freebies...DVLA win again for most awsome freebies, although they didn't give me a mug this year...Boo-urns!
Watched a couple of bands...They sucked...The Kitty Kat Dolls were awful, someone needs to explain to them that if their going to do boobs and butt centric dancing they need boobs and butts rather than being skeletaly thin...Does anybody really find this attractive...Seriously?
Sheltered in the drug action team bus when it started raining tabbys and labradoodles, then nipped out when it stopped for a while to see if The Camp Vamps were on yet...Nope :( Scooch were awful so we dissapeared off down to the Caboret (sp?) tent to go see Gayle Force do the seemingly impossible...Lesbian Drag! (No that's not a Lesbian in Drag, it was Gayle dressed a the Lesbian stereotype- Short spikey hair, butch looking T-Shirt and combats- whilst somehow managing not to just look like Gayle Force before she becomes a she), Fab as always, but the sign language interprater stole her thunger a little tiny tiny bit hehe.

Raced back up to the main stage and spotted the Vamps setting up and thought "HOORAY!"...Only to find they weren't on yet...Boo! But we did get a lady with an acoustic guitar instead...She was pretty cool, but not someone you'd intentionally watch in the pouring rain if you weren't waiting for someone else...And she seemed to do the longest set in the world!
FINALLY! Out came The Camp Vamps, with plastic glasses of something or other (they usueally come out with bottles of Corona) and introduced themselves before belting out their amsomely amazing version of Gay Bar (everytime I've seen them they've started with this and it's still AWSOME!), I know I've mentioned my hatered for Katy (die die die you evil bitch) Perry before and so you'll know that it would take a helluva bend to get me dancing to "I kissed a girl", proof that the Vamps are one helluva band! Bloodmyer, Gav and me lept around like idiots at the front singing along (even including their alternate lyrics "I kissed a girl and I liked it, hope my girlfriend don't mind it!"), possibly scaring a few people in the process!

After the Vamps we pretty much collapsed onto a park bench for the closing ceramony, then went off to Bloodmyers to eat food and sort our hair and smudgy make-up out before Charnel House. I wore the (by now ruined because of the rain) wig for a little while, but only because I promised Bev, Nicola and Meg that I would...Ack it was so hot and heavy I had to take it off very quickly! I also noticed while I was trying to dance with Bloodmyer and Gav that my dress was restricting my (lack of) dancing abillity! I could hardly move my arms! Oh and yes you read that right :D We got Gavin dancing :D

It was only when Bloodmyer and Gavin left I realised just how much my legs hurt, I limped over to a seat and sat there for the rest of the night in horrible pain thinking "Oh noooo damn you leggies, I like this song, I want to daaaaaance!"
Stupid bus was early and me and Kev missed it because the driver was one of those arsey types that (despite being early) refused to let us on between stops (even though he was stuck in traffic) so we ended up on a bus full of nutters again (at least I think we did, I was REALLY sleepy and I can't remember much of the bus ride, I do remember a fight at the bus stop though, crazy hen party drunks dressed as school girls screming at eachother and a crazy man dressed as a golfer running after the bus).

We actually woke up pretty early for a sunday...It was only 11am :D I was convinced it was later than that though because I could smell next door cooking food! Watched the Mera Luna DVDs, we kept thinking we spotted Kev then realising it was during bands he'd walked out on, after he'd allready walked out on them! Finally spotted him right at the front for Jesus on Extacy looking like he was having a fab time next to a bored looking girl who was apparently waiting to see Dir En Grey (Note to Kev: it's pronounced Deer en grey, not Dire en grey!), he made yummy yummy sunday dinner again (I mashed the potatos!) and I started watching the first series of Torchwood (never saw any of the first series because mam decided she didn't like it so nobody else could watch it *grumble*), stayed later than normal and took the last bus home.

If you can't tell I had a pretty fabulous internetless weekend :D Squee!

Feeling a bit down on my luck and sorry for myself recently. GAINED the pounds like no motherfucker knows.
No where near being perfect. I just want to be perfect for ONE person. I want ONE person to like me as much as I fall in love with them.
I'm pretty damn lonely right now.
I don't have a perfection icon or whatever it was I called it this week because I feel sick and don't want to look at pretty, successful people. I literally want to get the hell away from everything. Only a matter of weeks till I'm jetting off to Turkey.
To be reminded of the time I first fell in love.
For a nice quiet holiday. Time to unwind and think about stuff.

I'm just about to post my London Pride pictures, not that anyones particularily interested.
But if ya are, have a look, and cheer me up by telling me you looked.
That would be real sweet.

Also I am more that gutted about Panic at the disco. A little late on the news thread I know.
I paid my tribute to how sad I was by wearing my Panic! A La Discotheque (spelling?) t-shirt, playing their music and literally sulking for a whole day.
Then I decided there was much worse things I need to emotionally tackle then Panic splitting up. So I got over it a bit.
Still gutted though.

 

Was truely brilliant. I will add pictures soon. My camera is just a bit busted up at the moment. ): BOO!
Who was there? I'd love to see pictures if you have any,
Maybe some of you fellow Londonites saw me, I was dressed as a sailor. (Well a captain, but you know)

My legs are absolutely covered in mosquito bites ): I had to do a sort of amature shoot type thing :/ for my friends photography course. She needs to do some sort of task to be reviewed to see if she can actually take the couse. Those pictures I will NOT be posting. One because I don't want to look like everyone, who dresses up and gets someone to take a picture and says it's a shoot. Two because I am an awful model anyway and Three because I look like an utter weirdo.
I was meant to be a punk, I just looked like a victim.

I do want to post a picture of my new orange (not ginger) and red hair (: cause I love it.

Keep safe.

LOVE ELLE

What a day yesterday!

First, in the morning I went to Jones Beach, It was fun, the water's actually not that bad.

Then after the beach, I decided to hit up the gay festival at the Pier Downtown.

We got on the train and got off at 14st Union Sq. And we actually didn't know where the fest was so we looked around and out of no where a guy who must have been trippen on all kinds of things came up to us and asked us if we wanted to go to the pier.

So we followed him, scared and all as this kid was seriously making up the weirdest stories about his life. But we ended up getting to the fest and it was all good. :P

 

We were a little late to the whole thing, but at the pier there were tons of people. And It was insane.

People were seriously doing all kinds of shit. We got into a huge crowd that we couldnt get out of, where everyone was smoking pot, and some guy next to us was like " We're gonna be high by the time we get out of here" lol so true.

I met some pretty nice girls that day.

And we met some really nice woman named Paris.

I seriously looked like shit that day, but it was fun anyways.

Ok so I guess I probably look a little late on this one, it's not that. Seriously I've wanted to shake her violently ever since I first heard "I kissed a girl", but I contained my rantyness...

I just saw her interviewed again and the urge to rant HAS TAKEN OVER!

Seriously, part of me hopes that she really does have NO BRAIN INSIDE THAT LITTLE HEAD OF HERS but part of me thinks she's one of those annoyingly clever people who act like an airhead because it means people will buy her music.

I HATEHATEHATE her "music", no it's not because it's unbearable pop trash it's her lyrics. "I kissed a girl" for example drives me up the wall!

"I got so brave, drink in hand" Well done, second line and allready promoting alcahol as a tool of bravery.

"I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it" Ok so drink aside, what are you doing kissing girls if you have a boyfriend? If you kissed another guy and blamed it on drink people would be calling you a skank right now, but you kissed a girl so you can boast...Way to go Katy! Way to go for promoting a stereotype that causes actual bisexual women to be stereotyped as being "easy" or unable to commit to one person at a time.

"No, I don't even know your name, it doesn't matter" SKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK!

"You're my experimental game, just human nature" Human nature to use people? Well I gotta say I must be a martian then because I've never had the urge to use people.

"It's not what good girls do" Rar! Scary evil Lesbians...Did equality just leap back a few decades there?

"It ain't no big deal, it's innocent" Dude, make your mind up weather this was good idea or not...And do it with a less irritating tune please.

I also take HUUUUUUGE exeption at bits of Hot and Cold, though not quite as much as "I kissed a girl" which as you can tell makes me RAAAAAAAAGE!

"You change your mind like a girl changes clothes" So he doesnt change his mind uless he's leaving the house? Wow... (Yeah I mooch around in my jammies unless I'm going out...Heh...Scruff...Moi?)

Aaaaaand don't even get me started on "UR SO GAY", fabulous lets just use Gay as a negative again shall we? And while we're at it, talk in text speak...*sigh*

"i hope you hang yourself with your H&M scarf
While jacking off listening to mozart" Charming dear...

"You don't eat meat
And drive electrical cars" This is a problem why?

"You need SPF 45 just to stay alive" Because getting skin cancer is so macho??? Hang on, SPF 45 and Motzart...Is your boyfriend a Vampire???

"I can't believe I fell in love with someone that wears more makeup than..." I assume she realised that he doesn't wear more make-up than her...I know Drag Queens that wear less.

"You pull em' down and there's really nothing there" Well unless all the Gay guys I know are liars than this guy is not Gay...

I think I might make myself a "I hate Katy Perry" cape to wear over my Elvira dress for Pride this year...Or better still! "I kissed Katy Perry...AND DIED!"
Over dramatic y/n ?

Been uploading pics, and updating what groups they go into. All the time. 24/7.
Yes, I have no life.

I just read this and it made me feel sick. Click on the links. I'm currently looking at the MassResistance's so-called successes. It's disgusting:

• Successfully pressured Gov. Romney to veto funding of homosexual programs in schools put in FY 2007 state budget, through national grassroots action. (July 2006)

• Exposed "Youth Pride" and BAGLY "trans" Prom, and Boston Pride events including children, partly funded with taxpayer money. (2005, 2006)

how the F*CK can you call these successes??
No I am not gay, I'm bisexual, and I have friends who are gay. So this hits home. And strikes a bloody nerve.

I've signed the MillionForMarriage petition. I'm part of iSupport. I'm off to Gay Pride next year. I've been raised a Catholic, but I still am the way I am. I've yelled at my parents many times for making gay jibes and comments which I find unacceptable. And I think next on my list is to get rid of MassResistance.

I am incredibly proud of this mix. It took me less than 24 hours to make & i have a new favorite band. Guess which one. Also big thanks to Lexicon for all the help he gave me.
