Just Dance

script by Hannah, acting by Darren

Good luck with this one!

O.K. Darren as you suggested I will write you a script but even if you don't want to you have to say it and put the video on the blog. O.k. here goes:

P.S. Before you do this video you might need to learn the chorus of a song. (Just dance by Lady GaGa, look it up)

Start here-

"Don't you think Hannah is great? I do and so do a lot of people, Hannah has a lot of friends and some of them are Holly, Addi, Samantha, Simona, Annie, BJ, Jeremy, Patrick and a lot of others. I'd like to give a big Hi to all of them. Now before I go I would like to perform a song (starts singing the chorus to just dance. after finishing gives a wave and says goodnight)

Good luck Darren I hope you come as high as my expectations

olympic donuts

anyone want to review this place? it's right near the footscray train station. I wanted to go there but I'm not supposed to eat fried food it's bad for me. bad for you too, but you have a few years until your health crashes.

some thoughts on young boredom

you guys keep posting that you're bored!!!

I remember that particular kind of boredom, it was really awful. Don't worry it goes away when you're older. But, when you're older, the problem is that you become so busy that doing nothing and being bored becomes such a luxury.

personally, I think young boredom happens because young people are not allowed to go out and explore the world without parental supervision. On those boring days, wouldn't it be nice if you could grab a friend and take the train and head into Melbourne and walk up and down Swanston?

anyway, don't worry, time flies and soon you're be so busy that you'll long for these days of boredom. But that doesn't help you right now.

if you're bored, write a script starring me, a short monologue and i'll perform it and put the video on the blog.

Hi guys sup?
HA, IN YOUR FACE U LOSER WHOEVER KEPT EDITING PEOPLES POST MUHAHAHAHA U CANT EDIT NOW MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A PROPOSAL

I'm wondering if you guys want to test out something I'm thinking of doing. In Toronto, I want to do a Children's Choice Awards but instead of the jury seeing shows, they will go to local shops, restaurants, clothing stores, book stores etc and then give out awards to them.

In many cities, local weekly newspapers will take a readers poll and give out awards to local businesses; this is like that.

I'm wondering if you would be interested in posting some reviews of The Best (or the worst) Businesses of Footscray. Let me know what you think. You would write about your favourite shop or cafe or toy store or book store or art gallery or community centre or ice cream shop or dollar store or stores that you don't like, places where the staff watches you because they think you are going to shoplift just because you are young or whatever.

WHAT DO YOU THINK???

ps: I shaved off my mustache.
