Man, it was pretty LoL
I was supposed to go to Naginata and I had intending on going but then I decided "Screw it" and I just park my car at Melb. Uni and walked down to Melb. Central to kill time till the meet up.
I bumped into Linc and Sasu there and after them asking me why I was walking around with about 6 feet of material cloaking stick we did some shopping at coles then went off to meet up at Flinders street station. that being said when I first saw Sasu and Linc there were some girls getting ready for the meet up, their outfits were awesome but they didn't really socialise with us...AT ALL all day so after this I will say nothing more about them, but for the curious they were dressed as Teutonic Prussia, Russia, Pirate!England and Iceland (...I thought she was a guy till Linc told me otherwise @_@)
N!Italy(I remember so few names >.<; ) saw me, thought as I wasn't cosplaying didn't recognise me (Everyone knows me as Poland) and at this point Sasu (Revolution America) was in the bathroom helping Linc get into her German Uniform, as she was too nervous about jeering for walking about as a German. Soon after with the help of N!Italy being in uniform, Hungary and Sealand found us.after retreating to the shade of the train station we met up with practically everyone else, including Val dressed as Prussia, who was made by Mina to WEAR the costume on the train... man I wanted to watch them be stared at LOL!
Before we set out to Alexandria Gardens some global change activists come fagging across on bikes making a nuisance of themselves and splitting up the group. I get bored of waiting and announce that I will show everyone how not dangerous bikes are and I just cross the road with everyone yelling abut how I was too young a nation to die lol. once we get into the gardens we are once again assaulted by cyclists from the eco rant and I spend most of my time yelling at them for riding through us without ringing their bells, there's a road through the middle of the gardens, Me and America (Sasu) Cross without too much regard for the few cars on the road, but when we get to the other side there's nothing but cars on the road, I found it amusing. once we get to the gazebo I take the Prussian Flag and attach it to my naginata claiming that Prussia's superior because his flag's stick is bigger, Prussia agreed with this statement, I'm such a good occupied nation <3.
Later on AV calls and as I wasn't listening I took it that she was at the station and wanted help getting to the location cause she didn't knw it, so in the name of Prussia me, the flag still attached to the naginata set off to get her... she wasn't there so I walk back only to get another call saying that she's at the station now, I whine and complain like only Poland can then I go get her. But not before S!Italy feels the need to tell me that I am Russia(AV) and Prussia's bitch and I suck because of it, with a Polish whine and 'inorite' I wander off to get her. while I wait for her to get out of the station, still holding the flag a few people take photos of me and someone asks me if I have a pamphlet. for the record I was just wearing a while shirt and some jeans so I don't know what they were thinking.
There were some photoshoots and at one point I was sliding too far across the gazebo floor and I tried to avoid Russian rape twice.
I took my Naginata out at one point and Germany tried to use it as a Javelin, N!Italy Danced with it TOO CUTE and S!Italy pretended to stir pasta with it,and at one point I got my naginata back only to hear S!Italy yeah "Poland, you whore; gimmie back that stick"... such an IC remark I loved it <3
Frivolities wound down and soon most everyone went back to Sasu's house. but I didn't I had Roller Derby to go to
OH
MY
GOD
I went in for a laugh right. half way through the first half I was screaming so much for one of the teams to win!!
DUUUUDE I wanna join Roller Derby! I'd be so mad at it!!!
Despite the eagerness of other we didn't watch the game from the suicide Zone, opting for the safer bleachers instead. I asked for a quick explanation of what's going on from Meg. She let me read in the booklet flyer thing about the positions and told me it will be really easy to understand when the game gets going.
There so rough with each other when the game gets going. this is definatly a game the could never be played by guys...Mostly because it would just be Ice Hockey. I want to elaborate more on it.. but I'm finding it hard... when I said this to dad he said this:
The best way to describe Roller Derby is like fight club, you don't talk about fight club but everyone seems to show up anyway.
I was mildly surprised that dad knew the RD rules, till he told me it used to be on TV, the deflaited me a bit T_T
I can't wait for the next game because I'll be dragging Mina and Val along because this is totally their kinda thing and now they can't wait till that next match.
Can anyone think of a cool 'play-on-words" name and number for me fror Roller Derby???
NIC! do you have any of the HETA! Girls LJ/DevArt??? GIMMIE
