Happy Halloween!! Hope everyone has a great time! Friday was a good start to a fun weekend. I waited around the Forets to say bye to Drew and some of the travelers. They went to a music fest, Island Vibes on Stradbrook island. i was kinda sad I couldn’t go, and I kept getting crap for not going, but when I told them I was skipping out to do a burlesque dance, all was right in the world. You should try that excuse some time. Everyone loves to hear it. Anyways, I was way too nervous.. I was thinking there’s no way Im getting up to do this dance I hardly know in such skimpy clothes. Jellaine is so determined that I had no other way..we took a shot of rum and rushed into the city. Turns out it was inside the library instead of outside in the center city square…and it was at a poetry reading…and it was all weird artsyt and gothic people so I wasn’t embarassed anymore. And..it was crowded and hard to dance in the small space provided. None the less, I am fortunate enough to say, I performed a burlesque dance in front of a live audience during my stay in Australia!!!! That is one huge thing for me..
Saturday CJ and I went down to meet Jell and the West End Markets. Its an awesome market place and they said that it ws a perfecet place for me to live; lots of artsy/hippie/uni kids!! So maybe I’ll look into apartments there…
For Halloween, there was no way in hell I was going to wear the burlesque outfit again and it was great, Jellain got super excited and handed me a small batman shirt. TUrns out she had bought if for her massive dog last year, but it didn’t fit..it was a little boy’s costume! So I took it and made my own bat ears and mask by cutting up my leggings..good thing its summer! My cape was cleverly made out of my one and only black skirt that I safety pinned to a thin black string! I caught the bus into town to meet her, and went to the MJ party. It sucked and it cost ten bucks so I went down stairs and asked for my money back. They were really nice and more than willing to help me out, with a phone, money, whatever. They must like American batwomen.. actually..everyone seemed to like American batwomen. WHen I would walk past people in the streets they would start singing the theme song or ask for a pic. So many people came up to me. I think because every guy grew up liking batman as a kid and to see a girl pull it off made their day. I am one tough batwoman though. One guy asked to take a pic with me and I was like..if you can walk and take it, im not stopping. hahah..that is pretty much the jest of all my reponses. When I met up with Jellaine, she had come from a work party and had a few glasses of wine. We danced at Birdie Num Num’s and had a great time.
