Well,, today I went on a quest. A quest which I will tell you all about. As it deserves to be shared =].
Well,, I woke up at about 8:40 this morning and ran downstairs,, shoved some breakfast down my throat and then ran back upstairs to prepare. Made myself a nice little outfit - black drainpipes,, black and whiteish,, pinkish striped shirt,, black military shirt and red and black stripey tie,, in an attempt to make some kind of reference to The Black Parade. Then my hair fucked up and it took ages to sort it out. After that,, make up. Took way longer than usual,, as today it had to be perfect. Dark red eyeshadow above and below the eyes,, and a thin line of black eyeliner,, giving an uncanny resemblence to Gerard Way's eye make up. I emptied out my customised The Black Parade school bag and tipped my Mp3,, umberella,, money and phone into it instead. Then... then my badge broke,, which is GAY. My badge which read "Gerard Way is God". Which I must get fixed.
Anyway,, at about 10:30 I was ready to embark on my quest. I locked up the house and wandered down to the bus stop,, where it was late. After paying my fare and getting a seat on the top deck,, I realised something. My dad put me on the wrong bus. We travelled THE WHOLE WAY AROUND WOODLEY before getting into town. I got off the bus at about 11:20 [finally] and made my way down to the Oracle,, heart starting to beat faster and faster.
At 11:30,, I litterally ran into HMV. I flew across to the metal section,, finding it increasingly more difficult to breath. And then I saw it,, basked in a blackened glow,, which was probably my eyes playing tricks on me but oh well. The Black Parade was within reach.
I picked it up,, nearly screaming. Looking around,, I wondered why I wasn't getting any weird looks. Then I noticed - I was the only person in the entire metal section,, and there was probably about five other people in the rest of the shop. I quickly checked the posters,, finding no MCR posters WHATSOEVER. Even the ones I already had weren't there. Going to pay,, I checked the band merch - none. ACDC and FOB mainly,, and one HIM shirt. I payed for my CD and,, in all my hyped up glory,, went out of the wrong exit. Realising my mistake,, I ran back into the shop and back out the way I came in.
It felt like I was holding the Holy Grail. Again.
I was officially part of The Black Parade,, now an owner of the cd and signed up to The Black Parade/ My Chemical Romance newsletter.
Wow,, I seem to be getting around. Member of The Black Parade,, and the MCRmy.
Okaybacktothestory. I checked the tracklist,, found none there that I hadn't already heard,, then checked the album art - amazing,, if I do say so myself. I took a stroll down broad street,, popping into Sainsbury's to look for Ray and Bob,, and found only two issues left,, both with Mikey on the front. I checked Rockaround [[where my ears were greeted with music I instantly recognised as Marilyn Manson]] - sale. Some really cool stuff in there now. Returning through Sainsbury's,, I stalked WHSmiths again,, only to find that they were completly sold out of ALL issues of Kerrang!. I went all the way down Broadstreet and into Broadstreet Mall in search of a Kerrang!,, only to find every issue was sold out. In my surrender,, I went to Shakeaway to ease the pain. A large Minstrels shakeaway with white malteasers on top can work wonders.
After drinking the 'shake,, I went off in search of another thing I knew I needed - Mascara. Blue mascara. And I found it in Boots,, luckily. Somehow it was cheaper in Boots than in Superdrug =S.
By this time,, it was nearing time to meet my Dad for lunch. We don't wanna go into too much detail there,, but as I packed up my things to go to meet him,, a call came through to my mobile... a call from Allie. Asking if I was in town and had the cd.
Now,, I forgot to tell her some important stuff on that call as I was in a hurry. But I called her again later. And still forgot it.
After lunch,, I got another text from Allie saying she couldn't come in,, as her mom was "making her buy the cd from Asda". What the fuck. She also asked about Halloween,, so I called her again and told her that I didn't know what was happening because I could only invite ten people. To which I found out that her,, Joe and that had bought skeleton gloves. So we've decided gatecrashing is in order. We chatted a bit until my bus came,, and we hung up,, and I got stopped right before getting on the bus to be asked if the 63 goes near the hospital.
That bus trip was the weirdest ever. The adrenaline was still pumping that I had the cd,, but the roads were so bumpy that I thought I was gonna puke. So I exted Loz,, saying that I had the cd and I needed to get off the fucking bus. This is what I got back...:
*dies* Send me a copy! I'm reading some awful book in a bikini =/. I'm losing my mind. Loz xo
She's on holiday in Menorca XD. She likes the fishtank though =]. But she misses the big realease and she wants to know what it's like. So I was beign nice and texted her =].
As soon as I got back in my house,, while still feeling liek I was gonna puke,, I turned on the pc and placed the cd carfully i nthe disk drive. And then I saw it - a hidden track. And it's awesome,, sounds like something that Timone from the Lion King should sing XD. Also,, Gerard sounds English... again.
So thats the day when Yazz joined The Black Parade.
And boy,, was it all worth it.
It was so worth getting travelsick again.
I'm still really hyped.
Give opinions on the cd,, yeah??
=]
So Long And Goodnight...
