Metallica concert

Urgh, accounts is getting even more challenging than before :( I can't even get one final answer right for my homework! This is one disadvantage of taking on a speed course for A Levels. There is barely enough time to finish the syllabus properly and all the teachers are basically zooming past all the chapters. I don't even have a proper understanding of what is being taught now... I only have my O level knowledge to rely on. Daydreaming in practically all classes just make things worse too. -_-

Oh well. Anyway next week is Easter break. It's going to be for about 2 weeks, which is on average 2 week shorter than what most schools here in UK have. LSE actually has 5 weeks off for their Easter. Jealous, I am so. I understand why the college decided to only give us with only 2 weeks though. It's basically what I rambled about in the previous paragraph. I have a feeling that this break is going to be wasted as well, just like previous breaks that I had. Remember I always say how I am going to use it to revise school stuff? I never did that. Except for a rare couple of days, or hours even, that's it. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh I've lost my drive and desire. Bad, bad. :/

Okay enough about college stuff. This bit might be interesting: I went to Metallica's concert last Saturday!!! Omg, is that awesome/ shocking/ unexpected or whuddd. It was kind of a spontaneous thing because Shaun and Naz got extra tickets and no one wanted to buy them... so Boobs bought one of the tickets and Shaun kindly offered me the extra one. Naz is the hardcore Metallica fan anyway and Shaun agreed to accompany him to catch the concert once more. Yea that's how hard core he is. Naz went to the same concert twice. Like, whoa.

The concert was rather awesome. It was very eye-opening, metal-ish and freaking loud. It was so loud that when I came out of the stadium, I could barely hear properly. It was as though I lost my sense of hearing after the 1.5 hour long performance. During the concert I actually feared that I might go deaf and had to cover my ears to try and prevent further (temporary) damage to my ear drums. I got it back though, thankfully. Or so I think... hmm.

I find it quite a waste that I only knew 2 songs out of the handful that they played. Nearly everyone were like singing (or rather, screaming) with the lead vocalist. Oh yea, I find that James (lead vocalist, guitarist and band leader) is very charismatic. & the drummer (Lars?) too. They are quite old though.

Someone's watching us.

The cab driver who couldn't catch whatever we said.

Naz, in white, and boobs, holding the banana skin.

"Don't put 2 rotten bananas together" or something.

Doodling away on the window~

O2 Arena was where the concert was held.

Outside the stadium. (Not very interesting)

Our seats were pretty high up and far away from the stage. Naz and Boobs sat at different places, closer to the stage. Btw, the picture with shaun talking on the phone was to illustrate how far we were from the stage, lol.

James!!!

Other hard core fans cheering and throwing their empty plastic cups of beer down. Oh yea, I experienced an uber mini beer shower, wts. Thank goodness the smell didn't stick on to me.

Some guy dozing off/ orgasming in silence.

If you can distinguish the faces from this pictures you can actually see Shaun yawning lol.

Metallica!

James again! :D

James changing hahahaaahahahahahahahh

& 1 Kirk. Haha. Most of the pictures were taken with maximum zoom btw. It's quite surprising that this Kirk one is clearer, relative to the other pictures.

The weather is getting warmer lately albeit the weird difference in the change of temperature from day to night (think from 16 to 4). It's not that extreme yet but it's really quite troublesome. I have to dress at the right thickness, enough to keep me from being baked by my layers and frozen by the night wind. Oh well. Spring oh springgg, thou make me ponder what I am going to experience this time round.
