Okay, I forgot to post about Rainbow's End.

So I'll do it NOW.

I went to Rainbow's End on December 8th with HJ and a seven year old kid from Botany Downs St John Division.

I asked pretty much everyone I came across to go, and most said: "OMFG YEAH WE'LL GO!"

And only HJ turned up. =_= And that's only because he came over to my place FIRST and my father took us there together.

It was a time were HJ experienced my father's driving. Hey, I think it's perfectly logical to drive on the pavement just to avoid traffic. XD

When we got to the gates, there was like this gigantic crowd of people waiting to get in. I looked around for St John people and eventually found them. It's kinda stupid because people could easily get cheaper prices from St John since they did NOT ask for identification. It's not like we could have given any anyway. They were probably relying on the people not to cheat and lie or relying on their own memories. I got my tickets off Shaun.

Urmgh, anyway, the first thing we rode was THE PIRATE SHIP! Some chick started crying. I don't like the pirate ship that much. We should have sat near the end so we'd be more... vertical. O_o more thilling.

Then we did the Fear Fall (which Edmund - Botany Downs division could even go on!) and that totally was boring. I was hoping for something more exciting, thanks. But it took us up and then dropped us down. =_= the one in Hong Kong's OCEAN PARK is much more interesting. That one drops us three times. AT LEAST.

Then we lined up for Motion Master. That was fun, I think Edmund was scared but whatever.

While we were lining up, my friends from Epsom Youth met us up and then since we were nearly into the thing, they went off to the go karts.

After that, HJ, Edmund and I went and joined them. Then we went to the... whatisname... POWER SURGE!!!

Omfg, that was freaky. =S HJ was freaked out by it. Only because we knew the physics of the rollercoaster but if the thing on the Power Surge came undone, we'd plunge down and smash out skulls open on the concrete ground.

If the screws came loose on the rollercoaster, the possibility of survival is high, but on the Power Surge? Fuck, they'd need more than scrapers to gather our remains. =S It's not so bad while facing the sky, but when it swings around and we're hanging from our seats (the ONLY thing holding us in is the bar things which make this CLICKY sound that makes you freak because it sounds like it's gonna come undone) and moving downwards and spinning at the same time. =S

Eeeek. It was more thrilling than the rollercoaster, I swear. Edmund JUST made the height.

Then my Epsom friends split and the three of us went to the rollercoaster. And got separated because of the stupid lines and the people. And Edmund. Stupid boy.

After that, we had lunch. Oh wait no, we went on that Log ride thingy. We didn't get wet.

THEN we had lunch. We asked Edmund what he wanted, and he was like: HOT DOG. CHIPS.

And HJ and I exchanged glances and were like: ...how... unhealthy.

Then HJ was like: how about something healthy?

And Edmund thought for awhile and was like: APPLES!

And we exchanged glances once more.

I asked sarcastically if he wanted coke to wash it down and Edmund reprimended me like I asked if he'd like to go rob a bank. o_O And he was like: WATER!

HJ and I exchanged weird looks, sighed and I went and bought the food for him. Then HJ and I worried about the appetite of the seven year old.

And HJ apologised to his (absent) brother numerous times because of what he saw Edmund doing. Because you know, he was seven once and once was babysitted by his much older brother.

I don't think I want kids... =S

After that, we went to play in the Bumper Cars.

Nothing much exciting happened there. I think everyone has either misunderstood the meaning or the reason behind bumper cars. EVERYONE ON THE CIRCUIT WAS TRYING TO AVOID HITTING OTHERS.

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Either that or New Zealand Cops have done a MIGHTY good job of teaching us road safety. O_o

Then we lined up for Bumper BOATS.

And HJ apologised some more to his (absent) older brother, I sighed in exasperation and swore to never babysit SEVEN year old kids. (I'm sure that even I didn't fidget around that much!)

Edmund was cheaky, rude and jumped the line and went in the round ahead of us. He was soaked.

I tried to stay as DRY as possible but this fucking asshole came up from behind me when my attention was on HJ and he crashed me. I ENDED UP FUCKING SOAKED.

So of course, I swore at the bastard and then tried to bump HJ hard so that HE'D end up soaked too.

Only thing was, I got even wetter and HJ SOMEHOW MANAGED TO STAY DRY. WTF:LKJDSa;lkfdsj;alkdsf

Then we went to Manukau mall to drop off Edmund and wait for my dad to pick me and HJ up.

If St John doesn't find somewhere ELSE to invade in the year 2009, we're gonna go back to Rainbow's End.

And that's not something I really REALLY want to do. =S again.
