Baby I was born this way

HELLO!!!
So, my latest obsession is Lady Gaga's new song, "Born This Way" and it is awesome. The lyrics are so true. Let me post the chorus here:

I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way



That's just part of it, and it's incredible, I love it.

In other news!
The trains have a gossip newspaper called mX and it's targeted for the younger generation of frequent commuters. Anyway, Stef and I like to read it, so the other day, I was reading it, and there was this competition in it that said win a double pass to see Rihanna live in concert on the 25th. So all you had to do was text in your details and the word 'Rihanna'...so I did...50 times...I found out later that night that it was in fact 55 cents per message, and I thought that on my phone plan they would be free, but they weren't...so I spent $25 entering the competition. Luckily for me, the next day I got a phone call saying that I won the double pass! Yay! Also, included in the prize was 5 Rihanna CD's each (for me and my guest) which we'll get later. But anyway, YAY! So the concert was last night, and I took Cara. We got excellent seats, they were Gold seats, and we were in row B near the stage. It was awesome. Here is a recount with photos :D

We arrived a few hours early because we came straight from dancing which was nearby, so there weren't many people around, and because Optus were the main promoters, they said to us come get a fake tattoo and a pretend photo with Rihanna for free! So we were like hell yes!!

We then went to the Merch desk and I bought a Rihanna hat for $45 and Cara bought a phone charm for $20, then we went to the bathroom so that I could fix up my hat to look awesome.


We then asked the staff if we had to line up because we had reserved seats, and they said no, only the people in the mosh pit, you guys don't have to wait here. So we went and sat at a table nearby our door for just under an hour and we took some photos.


At 7.30 we were allowed to go in, so we watched all the mosh-pitters scramble in and then we went in with the reserved seat crowd. This was the view from our seats in row B.


 Far East Movement was the first support group, and they were really good, but I felt sorry for them because the place was practically empty, people were still turning up at like 9.00! During the FEM act, a dude in a suit with a monkey head came out, it was funny.  
  

Then Calvin Harris came out. I've never heard of him, but he's apparantly a DJ, and when he came out, I fell in love! He is so awesome! He also had this awesome light display going on, which is what those whice boxy-circle looking things were haha. 



At around 9.10 Rihanna finally came out! It looked like she came out on this:


but then she appeared on the front part of the stage! She was wearing this awesome flower skirt that had lights in it, so when she finished the first song, the lights went out and only her skirt was lit up.
 




That's all the photos I got of her because then my phone died, so we sat and watched the rest of the concert without photos, which is probably a good thing because she was wearing some sexual looking clothes...or lack thereof, haha. And she kept touching herself in inappropriate places, and I was sitting next to some guys who whenever she did it, they would yell 'OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH'
Haha...teenage boys...they're all the same. heh

So the rest of the night was real fun! Rihanna is surprisingly good at singing live, especially since she just recovered from Laringitis and all these other illnesses, it was all over the radio and stuff because they were concerned for her tour. But she did great. It was excellent :D

Well, this has been a suuuuper long post because of the photos so I'll leave it at that then! Post later dudes! Hah

However, I just have one more thing to say
WANT YOU TO MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I'M THE ONLY GIRL IN THE WORLD

Hahah funny
