MUSIC
Whenever I hear 'Plug in Baby' by Muse, I am immediately transported back to the thE time I was standing in the crowd, listening to the beginning notes of that song, my friend who I had convinced to come along told me later that even though she didn't like Muse - seeing me become so happy just by seeing a band, made her want start listening to them.
MOVIE
The end dance scene - I cannot describe how funny and how perfect and ending to this great movie is. My flatmate and I rewound that scene at least 6 times the other night, cackling like idiots the whole way through.
SUNRISE
As cliche as it sounds, it can be a magical thing to witness. I had flown over to the Gold Coast, Australia with 8 of my mates for New years, and that morning that dawned on 2004, we were down at the beach drinking beer as the sun rose over the ocean. We all sat just sat there in silence, toes digging in the sand.
HOSPITAL
Lying in bed next to my sick mother, reading to her from a book that I had on me, 'The Stand' by Stephen King, and not because she especially liked Stephen King or even wanted to know what was being said - just to hear my voice speaking to her, distracting her from the pain.
FIRST LOVE
The first time some said they loved me and I knew they meant it, he had bought me a balloon - the cheesy kind- which pictured a teddy bear with the words 'I love you'. I was playing with the balloonand read the words out loud to myself - 'I love you'. He turned and looked at me and said 'I Love you'. I let out an emarrassed laugh and he joined me.
True Friendship
Sitting in a car, chain-smoking and telling my best friend my deepest secret - the only person I have ever told it to even to this day. She didn't try to attempt lame conversation, she just sat there, smoking, listening to me talk. And when I had finished we hugged for an unashamedly long time.
HEARTBREAK
Watching my step-dad walk away after all the promises he gave me.
ALCOHOLIC MOMENT
Getting woken up at 7am on a Sunday (by means of a switched on vacumn cleaner) forced out of bed so that the three of us could polish off a bottle of tequila by 8.30ish in the morning.
BEING A FRIEND
Sitting on my bed with my best friend after she had broken up with her boyfriend of 4 years, and at her request listening to 'Lydia' by Fur Patrol over and over. And over and over and over. And over. Where my Mum joined us and gave us her 'all men a BASTARDS' speech.
DYING
A co-worker died when I was 18. In samoan tradition they have the body in the house for people to come and pay thier respects. As I left the house I looked across the road and saw one of my other co-workers sitting on a bus-stop bench - crouched over with his head in his hands.
BOOK
Coming to the end of 'To Kill a Mockingbird' and getting goosebumps all over my body just by reading the last chapter. Once I had finished I immediately started reading it all over again. And Also, crying, actual crying while I read the ending to 'Of Mice and Men'.
EXCITEMENT
Landing in Thailand with my mate, walking through Bangkok airport, not knowing what to expect or where we were even going, not having slept in over two days - and never feeling more awake.
RANDOM
Catching a taxi home after a night of drinking and stopping in the KFC carpark to share a joint with the taxi driver.
NEIGHBOURS
Sitting outside enjoying a cigarette, listening to my neighbour teach his four year old son to play Metallica's 'Nothing Else Matters' on the guitar.
NAKED LADIES
The first time I ever gave a stripper a tip, with the money between my teeth and my head buried in her breasts. I was laughing so hard that all she came away with was a drool soaked 50 dollar note.
GAMBLING
Walking in with only $20 and coming out with $1600, then recklessly spending it all in one crazy night. (Which, I guess, is part of the reason why I ended up in a strip bar)

The only title not fully capitalized was True Friendship.
I rather enjoyed the subtle focus on something so magical.

Here I go again, I hear those trumpets blow again.
All aglow again , takin' a chance on love.
Here I slide again, about to take that ride again.
Starry-eyed again, takin' a chance on love.
I thought that cards were a frame-up, I never would try.
Now I'm taking that game up and the ace of hearts is high.
Things are mending now, I see a rainbow blending now.
We'll have a happy ending now, takin' a chance on love.
Here I slip again, about to take that trip again.
I got that grip again, takin' a chance on love.
Now I prove again that I can make life move again.
Um - I'm in the groove again, takin' a chance on love.
I walk around with a horse shoe, in clover I lie.
And brother rabbit of course you better kiss your ... foot good-bye.
On that ball again I'm ridin' for a fall again.
I'm gonna give my all again takin' a chance on love.

You can tell me your secrets. I promise I won't tell.
Then, we'll get busy.

This was enjoyable. I sorta hope it becomes a bandwagon in order to learn more about some of the freaks in this place.

But this was actually pretty good. Alan Arkin was the best thing to happen to that movie.
And you think sharing a joing with a taxi driver is cool, try sharing a joint with a carnie. That's fucked up. Unless said taxi driver was, in fact, Bobby DeNiro. Then you win.
