Leonid Meteor Shower 2009 MONDAY NIGHT!
She's good! We're both really busy with our second year at uni, it's so much work! I've basically had exams every 2 weeks since the start of october:stunned: Yep! Me and Mindy saw them together. I was supposed to go with a friend but she couldn't afford it in the end. Wonderful as always. Making my Coldplay concerts up to 5 now! And we together bought a beer :laugh3: We've been legal since May, but we hadn't bought a beer at a concert yet. So we got split one at Coldplay :D I mean $11 is a lot for a cup! How's everything with you? :)

The X Factor Thread
It's funny, I've been following this online since it doesn't play in Canada, and after watching the autitions the only people I watched are still there. I love hearing Joe sing though, he's fantastic for being so young. He's my favourite :D

Leonid Meteor Shower 2009 MONDAY NIGHT!
They actually recommend against using a telescope, so you can get a wider view of the sky since they're al over the place. They said it could be up to a few dozen per hour :) When I watched one this summer they were all over the place, me and some friends got some blankets, a cd player, and just lay in a field. Got bitten to hell but it was really nice. I'm excited for this one :D It says it will be clear tomorrow night, let's hope it stays that way!

Leonid Meteor Shower 2009 MONDAY NIGHT!
So, if you haven't heard, tomorrow night there's going to be a meteor shower! Apparently it's going to be one of the biggest ones in our lifetime :) If you have time to stay up late and look outside (away from light polution) you'll probably see some! I watched one earlier this summer which was really beautiful. Depending on where in the world you live you'll have different peak times, apparently central and eastern Asian have the best view. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33589356/ns/technology_and_science-science/ Hopefully it will be a clear night! Anyone going to watch?

Show Off "Your" Coldplay!
Sigh. Two weeks ago I took down my all Coldplay posters.... the oldest of which has been up in my room for about 7 years :stunned: It was a really hard thing to do, but I share a room and we want to change the theme of it...

The concert was AMAZING. This was my fifth time seeing Coldplay :) All in Toronto. And I think I start every review off with that one statement. Alright so I went with my sister, we got down pretty early because we were going to do some shopping but then decided we didn't have enough time. I kind of wish we did go so I wouldn't have to listen to the first opening band Kitty, Lewis and whatever. They gave me a headache which kind of made the whole show not as good as it could have been. So after the first band were off Mindy (my twin sister) and I went to the bathroom...and someone had left their ticket in the bathroom, a floor ticket. So my first thought was...oh no this poor person! What if they need it to get back to the floor? (I later saw that people had wristbands so I hope she managed to get back). I told Mindy about it and spent a few minutes deliberating whether or not to just leave in the the stall or not. I thought that somoene would just take it, so I grabbed it and gave it to someone who worked there, hoping that it would be in better hands but also worrying that the person might go back to the bathroom and freak out if it was missing. I really hope the person managed to get back, I felt really bad. Anway so after that was over me and Mindy split a $10 beer and then watched Elbow who I actually really enjoyed. The wait for Coldplay to come on took a while, 40-45 minutes. I think there might have been some problems with the lights because they had some guy go up on this lighting rig. Definately didn't look too safe. Then FINALLY they came on! So great. We were in section 129, row 21 so it wasn't that bad seating wise. The music was amazing, and the sound quality was actually really good. The lights, butterflys and balloons were great. They didn't hit our section, but I grabbed some butterflys that were in this little pile on my way out. :) Chris was bouncing and jumping around and falling all over the place as usual. One of the highlights for me was that the third stage was right at the end of the aisle next to me! So at one point Mindy spotted that the instruments had been set up and suggested we stand on the steps because it had to be soon. So we headed down there and in a few minutes they were running over to us! We had a rear view of the stage (not SUCH a bad thing ;)). Thought to point out that I spotted Phil running back with Chris. I'm surprised no one mentioned the light wave! I might have missed someone mentioning it but it was beautiful! Basically, Chris told everyone to take out their phones. Instantly thousands of blue lights appear. Then he tells us all to put our phones by our side, and that we were going to do "the wave" with cell phone lights! It was amazing to watch, it looked like thousands of stars going up. We did the whole thing a few times and before that he had just one corner waving their phones around. Here's a little clip I found (the beginning) that has it on Youtube! Although the real thing was so different. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuwoYqvkji8&feature=related]YouTube - Coldplay - Billie Jean - Michael Jackson Tribute - Viva La Vida Tour @ Rogers Centre[/ame] My headache started returning during Politik, it had been very small during most of the concert. When they left and did "the bow" and everything I was thinking "WAIT! They have to do an encore for sure..." But at the same time I was thinking of nearly ever other time I've seen them that they did the bow as a sort of final thing. I haven't beem following setlists or anything so I didn't know what the last song would be. But I also knew they HAD to play The Scientist. Especially because it's my favourite song. Lo and behold, the lights stayed off and a few minutes later they were back and playing it. So beautiful. Then they had Phil bring out a cake for Will. Looked like a strawberry shortcake to me...possibly chocolate. I work in a bakery (I couldn't help but notice:embarassed:) haha. And of course they had an explosive ending. It took a while for people to start moving. Me and Mindy both got a cd, and when we were walking towards the Skywalk we saw all these people bunched up. We asked what they were for and it was for everyone who didn't manage to get a cd on the way out! We also managed to pick up another one that got thrown in the air and almost hit Mindy. I'm going to give that one to my friend who was originally going to come to the concert but didn't have the money. We got dipping dots on the way out which were really good, I've never tried them before. On the subway back home my headache came back with a vengence. It also didn't help that we had to get off halfway hope to get on a shuttle bus since the northbound trains stopped running. I felt like crap, but I still had a great night. :) I was wearing my autographed shirt....no one else had a shirt as old as mine haha. I saw some X&Y shirts but mostly viva la vida ones (understandable). I was wearing this old 2003 tour shirt haha. Does anyone know how long the concert was by any chance?

Sudan women sentenced to 40 lashes each... for daring to wear trousers in public
When I read something like this I just think, shouldn't 30 police have something better to do? Really? Even though I know some places have the "fashion police" maybe they should have been trained as real police who could do something like protect people.

WHAT TIME WOULD YOU START LINING UP FOR GENERAL ADMISSION??
yeah go early. But don't wait in line all day and then once you get let in spend your time waiting in line to get a beer before grabbing a spot. I've seen people do that, and it totally defeats the purpose. and no they can't tell you that the pit is full if you have tickets but you could be really far off to the side and not have a very good view. also for people who are shorter they want to try and be in front of most people so they don't get their view blocked.
