Welcome home Shezz & Lamb!

Read congratulations by blakey here.

I would like to welcome home Shezz and Lamb from their pre-honeymoon to a secluded, unknown, location near Forster on NSW's Central Coast.

I'm unsure of when their wedding is, but rumours tell me it's soon. Keep your dates free people.

If someone wants to make a group/forum to decide on what we should get them for their wedding welcome home pressie, let us know. I can advertise it on my site or MSN nickie or something.

Once again, Welcome home!, and good luck for the future buddies!

The Works: Mickey D's, Zombies, lots of laughter!

Ahhh.. another fun night slowly flown past, leaving the next one closing flying straight and me and my comrades.

Friday evening/night:
I zoomed to go pick up Mr Fish from his Terrey Hills residence. We continued east on Mona Vale Road, dodging bugs and flys along the way (I might have made up the dodging bit). We arrived at Paigey's beachside home and witnessed her little brother dressed in.. a dress. It's definatly not unusual to see guys in dresses for people that go to Davidson High though.

Anyway. .. . We; Chris, Paige, Sarah and I, proceeded to the car and the question arose. "What are we going to do?!"
We came up with going to go check the movie times at Warriewood Cinema. We did, and the only thing worth seeing was "The Forgotten" - I'd watched it earlier in the day on my computer, just to see if it was good. Thus the others felt bad that I'd already seen it. I said I didn't care. After a period of 'um-ing' and 'uhh-ing' they chose "The Forgotten".

One problem. Hunger.

A couple hundred metres away was a Pizza Hut resturant. We couldn't eat a works meal in 7 (how cool does that number look, especially when u put a like through it) mintues so we decided we'd skip the movie.

We came, we ate, we iced, we made a mess. They put so much ice in the pitcher of water! There was only enough actual water for the 4 of us. We tried to get ice into our cups but the massive clump of crushed ice (looks like snow) would just stick to the bottom of the pitcher for a few seconds, and then it would go flying out.. getting about 1% into the cup and 99% onto the table. It was useless. But we all tried it. Many times.

It was really upsetting because the whole point of 'The Works' meal is to eat as much as you can - including ice cream! But nooo.. the ice cream machine was 'out of order' :( I hardly stuffed myself at all. We just decided, after a few plates of pizza and what-not, to just leave without making too much more of a mess.

Next stop - Mickey D's (McDonalds) playground. Sadly, this has changed too! These massive food chains aren't catering for lil kids anymore. :( All they care about is making the inside of the store all nice; McCafe, modern looks, health menu. It sucks! Yeah, wow, the inside doesn't look as trashy. But the tunnels in the playground was like something you'd see in Terminator 2: Judgement Day! Sarah N I went to go play in the tunnels and there we 10-16 year olds out on top of the tunnels hitting plastic McDonalds trays against the outside of the tunnels. There were parts of tunnels which had, somehow, been burnt. And it smelled - bad. :( At the last minute we saw it was a home to a rather large huntsman spider.. our cue to leave.

Looking for more fun - Sarah N I choose to take a maaasive detour back to the car, which we'd left Chris N Paige in. You know. To scare the crap out of them. We got to the car. They weren't there. Riiight. We looked around. Heard Paige calling. They were walking over from near the medical centre. hmm. More fun needed. Run! We ran. They strategically just stood near the car looking for us. We'd yell something and ran behind bushes/trees in the darkness to be hidden from Chris N Paige's view. But they saw us. Cripes. We eventually ran through the drive thru. Where we were cornered :( - Chris came up behind us through the entrance and Paige was waiting at the exit. Paige grabbed my tie and pulled me with it towards the car. Feisty. Meanwhile, Chris wasn't as firm with Sarah and she ran.. "RUN! I've been caught, but you can make a break for it! Goo!" I yelled. hahah.. boy it was hot running around.

Chris and I went back to the car. At this point I have no idea who was on what team because Paige and gone to go capture Sarah and but then they both started to run away. I drove round and round the parking lot until eventually kidnapping them into the car.

Now the extra fun! Cemetery! ("I'm like a biiird"... I'm listening to Nelly Furtado while writing this.. olld song.)

A recap:
On Halloween Sarah,
Tammy and I went into Mona Vale cemetery and went to this hut thing and saw something or someone moving around inside. There was a light on. Looked like candle light. As we went closer the light became brighter. It was rather spooky!
To make a long story short, the light eventually turned off and that was our cue to leave.

So Chris, Paige, Sarah and I went into this same cemetry because Sarah and I were curious of this person (it looked like and old man because there seemed to be a bald head). We walked much closer to the hut this time we walked past it and roamed around the cemetery. Chris N Paige just sat somewhere and made out. Scaredy-cats. We (Sarah N I) saw things which we weren't sure we really there or not.

Sarah really wanted to knock on a door of this hut but I was all sceptical. :s I decided if she, or we, were going to knock to do it on the side where there was a window which we were looking at on the night of Halloween. We went over to that side. There was no window. :s There were reflective signs though. I couldn't make them out. Sarah went a few metres closer than me and said they read "Dangerous chemicals" or something. She said she heard a snoring sound. eek. I wondered if it was maybe just the sound of chemicals humming in a machine or something. No matter what it was we ran but I wasn't too sure whether I was still scared or not cos the signs confused me.

Blah Blah, if you weren't there you won't understand how scary and fun it was! Thus why you need to get on the Derek bandwagon and get out and have some quality Wizz Fizz fun!

We went back to Paige N Chris and they were cold. Sillies. They wanted to sit in the car. I agreed. Then Sarah N I roamed the cemetery graves some more. Found a random old - probably dead (ha ha) - bench situated in between two huge trees. Bit odd. We laughed there about that Asian lady who screamed such a terrifying scream and stacked it last Friday (29th Oct) at Macquarie Ice Rink. My golly that was funny! Soo many funny things have happened of late! Laughter is making me soo fit. No need to exercise if you've got laughter on hand!

Paige had to be home by 2230hrs so we left and went to her house for a while and watched some tv and a video I brought! Soo funny; Rowan Atkinson Live! The tape was like 10 years old and would sound static at times but it was soooo funny!

Yeah.. I've written too much.


OH! One more thing! Remember that horrible band "Hanson". They have a new song! No it's not a remake of their classic "Mm-bop". It's called "Penny and Me".
To my shock, Anna (Samaire Armstrong) from 'The OC' is in the video clip. While watching I was thinking of a funny MSN nickname (Seth, on The OC, provides them soo well!) and I thought I could say that Anna has moved away from the OC because she's gone back to her home town because the boys from "Hanson" are there and she wants to be with them. Seth would be so devastated if he found this out! ahh.. too funny!

Until the next fun time - Probably tonight - peace out!

XBOX Party in Sydney!

I'm not much of a gaming fan. Sure I love to "crash" cars and "shoot" monsters, but it just isn't as good as a movie - or real life car crashing.. haha Sheridan you bogan.

Anywho.. This coming Monday night (8th November 2004) there's going to be an XBOX Party for the release of Halo 2 at midnight (goes on sale when the clock hits Tuesday 9th Nov).

It's at Pitt Street Mall in Sydney's CBD. Evermore and Regurgitator will be playing live there. As well as personalities from radio (Nova969), tv, and other media.

I'll be attending.. I love these sorts of things. I already have Evermore's autographs =P If you want to come with me e-mail/sms/call/or talk to me on MSN. I'll prob go in the early afternoon - depending on crowd sizes.

Any Questions? Write a comment.

Eternal Glow Of The Spotted Mind

I just finished watching "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" on my computer.

First half is mighty weird which made me think: "Ahhh, I knew I shouldn't go see that movie." (which I didn't - at the movies)

But the second half was resolving. It began to make sence. Jim Carrey's humour began to shine. And I was happy. But then as the end rushed to me it became sad (you know sad - Like "The Green Mile") and interesting and happy and sad and so on.

I think I'll have to go buy it and add it to my Jim DVDs. I downloaded the one I justed watched to see if it was worth it. shhhh =p


While I'm on the tooooooopic of mooovies...
If anyone wants one of there movies backed up I can do it if you just bring me a blank dvd±r and I can do it over night or whatever. If you want to permanently borrow a back-up of one of my many movies, feel free to just ask =)

Don't pirate movies though people, that's bad! Espicially if it's for profit! A slap on the hand if you even THINK about doing that kinda stuff!


Take care movie buffs!
Love me and Maria (My cute little cat walking around me right now).

MSN - Linking Derek to the world.

There's been a bit of a lull on MSN lately.

I don't know what I'd do with MSN. It's how I talk. I can think clearer when I type.
2004 is closing in and I hope after we commence into 2005 that people still use it often! Please keep the same e-mails at least then I can find out if you change cell numbers (heaven forbid!) etc etc.

I feel soo alone on a computer if I'm not talking to people. I need to be socialising or laughing constantly or my chest might cave in and my Krispy Kreme addiction might disappear..

Please make regular visits to MSN and if you need a chat just double click on my wacky nickname and I'll be glad to chat!

Take care now. Bye Bye then..

The Unavoidable Question

The previous question was removed due privicy wanted.

Flock, run, and get out of those hot rhinos; cos it's time to talk about the minnnnd..

That's all. Take care now. Bye Bye then.
