SCHOOL REUNION Part 4

The man Katie liked in high school, “Speedy Gonzales” started flirting with Daisy at the end of the night and they were totally into each other. I was so happy for them both, they looked so cute together. He told Daisy that he had always had a crush on her throughout school. I didn’t know it at the time, but next time I got to see Sharon she told me that Daisy and Speedy Gonzales had hooked up and she told me that Speedy Gonzales had a wife and kids at home and I thought, “WTF?” I thought he was a nice guy and he would be good for Daisy. I didn’t know he was married with kids.

                I still kept in touch with Daisy but she started getting more serious about the guy she had been seeing and stopped communicating with me. I didn’t hear from her on Facebook or in real life for about 1 or 2 years and she wasn’t posting anything online so I deleted her. I didn’t delete her to be malicious, if she wasn’t using Facebook anymore there was no point of me having her on it. I had Simon on my Facebook but he ignored me all the time so I deleted him, after I deleted him he sent me another friend request and I added him again, but he continued to ignore me again. What’s that all about? If you don’t want anything to do with someone why add them? But some people are different from me I guess. I think a lot of people just want numbers; they don’t actually care about interacting with the people they are Facebook friends with.

                A few people from school added me after the school reunion; many of them just added me so they could ignore me. People like ignoring me; they either bully me or ignore me. Some people do talk to me online and in real life and they are the only people that should matter to me.

          Simon planned another school reunion not long after the first one; I think it was less than a year after the first one. I think he did it because the school reunion was such a success that everyone was saying, “We should do this more often” and “we should do one of these every year or every five years” Simon took it on and decided to organise another one but I think it was too soon after the last one. I wanted to go because he put so much effort and organisation behind it but I had no one who wanted to go with me and I didn’t want to go alone so I decided not to go. If I had someone who would have wanted to go with me I would have turned up but even Sharon and Daisy wasn’t interested in going again. Not many people turned up to the second one and I think Simon must have been a bit bummed out about it. When people are drinking and having a good time they always say “we should do this again soon” that’s what people always say at gatherings and at family things but they never go through with it, it’s all talk (and most of the time they are talking shit). Sometimes it’s just the alcohol talking.

                In a way I just felt like I was in a room full of strangers. I remember my aunty (my mum’s sister) asking my mum how was my school reunion went because she was invited to her school reunion and she also was feeling a little concerned about going.

          I have no regrets about attending the school reunion. It was an interesting experience and I will keep those memories for a long time. This times more positive memories rather than negative memories. I remember being happy that night.

SCHOOL REUNION Part 3

Not everyone from school turned up, I would say there were about half of the kids from school there and a few teachers turned up as well. Sharon and Keith eventually turned up (late as always). Sharon and Keith were nice towards me that night thankfully. I didn’t need their bullshit that night (I don’t need their bullshit any night) but the reason why they didn’t give me grief that night was because I wasn’t isolated and there were always others around (people who they didn’t know too well) and I also had Daisy with me. There were some girls that were bitchy towards me and giving Sharon and me dirty looks, but some people just remain trashy for life. There was this guy that Katie used to have a crush who she nicknamed him “Speedy Gonzales” after a cartoon character she liked. There was this other guy who was there who sort of knows this girl I know Judy (Judy didn’t go to school with us) he’s a nice guy and drives buses. My stepsister Autumn had him as a bus driver a few times and she thought he was cute. He used to get picked on sometimes as well from what I can remember. We were standing around this table outside where Sharon and Keith were smoking. He came up to us and started bitching about these people from school who were bullies. I didn’t know about it when he was doing it, I wasn’t really paying attention to him, I was chatting to Daisy. Sharon told me about it the next time we caught up. Simon had paid a photographer to turn up to take our photos and we had a group photo taken. I didn’t want my photo taken so I attempted to hide. Even though Keith didn’t go to our school he posed in our school reunion photo with us that were kinda funny. I can imagine all the kids I went to school with, trying to work out who that guy is in the photo. I didn’t drink too much that night but I don’t need to drink too much red wine for it to get me tipsy. I’m a cheap drunk (as they call it). I drank enough to lose my anxiety and by the end of the night I was taking photos of everyone. I approached my history teacher and told him I still love history and I told him how I’m a big fan of the Tudors and Anne Boleyn. He said, “Anne Boleyn is that the girl who had her head cut off?” and I said “yes”. What kind of history teacher doesn’t know who Anne Boleyn is? I think he preferred Ancient Rome and Australian history from what I remember. I remember this girl we used to hang out with in high school had a huge crush on him and she once told me that she used to ring him up on his home phone number to ask him questions relating to her school work. I didn’t think you were even allowed to do that. Sharon told me that he would have sex with his former students after they left school. I don’t know if it’s true or not.

                During the end of the night Simon and his girlfriend (who also went to our high school) gave a speech and thanked everyone for coming. It was during his speech Sharon taped me on the shoulder and told me that she and Keith had just got engaged (again). This wasn’t the first time she has told me that she and Keith had just got engaged. The first time she told me was years previously when we were at the club, we were sitting around drinking (Matthew was in England at the time) and she told me that she proposed to Keith because she said on a leap year (or something like that) it was okay for women to propose to men. Sounded like a bunch of patriarchy bullshit to me. It doesn’t matter what gender you are or what time of the year it is, if you want to ask someone to marry you just do it. She didn’t have an engagement ring that time and I don’t even recall her ever having an engagement ring or celebrating their engagement. I don’t even recall Keith saying anything about the engagement back then. So at the reunion Sharon told me she and Keith had just got engaged (she must have forgotten about the previous time they got engaged). I told her congratulations and I was happy for her and Keith. She told me the ring was still at the jewellers. They never celebrated their engagement and that was the only time it was mentioned. The engagement ring never showed up. Even though Sharon always calls him her husband, they’ve never been engaged or married.  They are probably better off not getting married, they are probably sensible that way. I think Sharon wanted to marry, but Keith was never interested.

There were a lot of people who had to travel from different states to go to this school reunion and were staying at motels. People made effort to come to this thing so it was a good turnout. Simon should be proud of what he did, it was well organised and people had a good time.

UK superstar hands local band its biggest gig yet

By Cassidy Pearce - January 31, 2024, 14:15

After taking over venues everywhere from Katoomba to Canberra, local band Club Halifax is about to hit their biggest stage yet, opening for internationally renowned singer-songwriter Louis Tomlinson at Qudos Bank Arena.

Club Halifax initially came together in 2021, when existing bandmates Bree Greasley, Cameron Browning and Cameron Hopcroft joined forces with new members Robert Jinks and Ethan Karpathy to create a brand new sound.

Over the last few years, the group has performed all over New South Wales and interstate whilst working collaboratively to write and release two singles, with Karpathy admitting that Glenmore Park local Hopcroft, whose home they record at, is always the “secret ingredient” in their music.

“I like a lot of heavier music, a lot of the other guys like a lot of the folkier stuff, so you blend that all together, and then our sprinkle on top is always Hop – whenever Hop brings his lead lines on, that’s when it goes from a song, to a Club Halifax song,” he said.

Everything changed for the band last year when a targeted advertisement came up on Karpathy’s Instagram looking for a local act to support the former One Direction member at his Sydney show on Friday, February 2.

Despite saying he ignored the advertisement at first, thinking the band had no chance at the spot, Karpathy ended up applying the next day with a short blurb and video of them playing at the Blue Mountains Theatre.

You can only imagine their shock upon opening an email from Tomlinson’s team just a few weeks ago naming Club Halifax as the official opener.

“[Browning] and I yessed it before we got everyone else saying ‘yes’ – we just knew it had to be done,” Karpathy said.

Club Halifax is one of three Australian bands opening for Tomlinson over the span of his tour, with The Velvet Club performing in Melbourne, and Safety Hazard in Brisbane – each local to their respective shows.

According to Greasley, artists like Tomlinson providing opportunities like these for smaller bands is an integral part of the industry locally, showcasing that there’s no shortage of musical talent in Australia.

“I think it’s awesome, because all of these smaller bands are getting so much momentum out of it, and hopefully opportunities out of it as well,” she said.

With the countdown now officially on, the band said they’re all dealing with mixed emotions, struggling to focus on day-to-day life without being reminded of the gig.

“I think we’re all feeling terrified, but excited,” Hopcroft said.

Ultimately, however, Jinks noted that they can’t wait to soak it all up, especially given they’ll be surrounded by loved ones who have bought tickets to support them.

“For a western Sydney band, this is a huge opportunity. I don’t think any of us saw this coming, and definitely not this quick. It’s the dream, but it doesn’t happen often,” Jinks said.

“I’m pretty excited that we’re going to have all of our friends and family in the audience. I think that’s going to be the only comforting thing in the whole gig – looking out and seeing mum. But also, brushing shoulders with pop royalty Louis Tomlinson is super exciting.”

As for what’s next for Club Halifax, Browning assured that there’s plenty more in the pipeline for 2024.

“There’s at least one EP, potentially two, in the works, and then other stuff beyond that, like merch and more gigs,” Browning said.

The Parramatta Eels will face the Melbourne Storm in the opening game of the National Rugby League season in 2023 at Accor Stadium. The preseason for the home team concluded with a victory over the Newcastle Knights, while the preseason for the Melbourne Storm included only one victory, which came against the New Zealand Warriors.

Parramatta Eels - will hope for a better campaign The 2022 NRL season was one of the best for the Eels. They finished fourth, behind the Cowboys, the Cronulla Sharks, and the Penrith Panthers. The Eels won 34 points from a total of 24 games. They scored 608 goals and let other teams score 489 goals against them. They were able to get past the Canberra Raiders in the quarterfinals and the South Sydney Rabbitohs in the semifinals on their way to a loss to the Panthers in the championship game. This was despite the fact that they had a fantastic postseason overall. We are now hoping for an incredible start from the host, even though they will now hope to make it to the playoffs in the regular season even if they are unable to clinch the position at the top of the table.

Melbourne Storm - slightly favored on the road The lone scheduled preseason match that Melbourne Storm participated in resulted in the team's victory over the New Zealand Warriors away from their own stadium, and the team will now enter the new season in a position of strength. After a disappointing finish to their NRL season in 2022, the away team will be hoping for better results this year, despite the fact that there are many aspects of their game that still need to be worked on and improved. In the 2022 National Rugby League season, the Melbourne Storm accumulated 32 points over the course of 24 games, which was good for fifth place overall.

Expert Betting Tips The two teams are formidable, and there is no doubt that each has an exceptional roster capable of giving them an advantage in this contest. Even if we anticipate that they will enter this competition with a high level of preparation, the odds are still in favor of the home team winning. We also think the game will go on for a long time, with both teams scoring a lot of points because of how well they play on offense. As a result, we eagerly anticipate a contest that will end in overs.
