The Crap List

WARNING: INCREDIBLY LONG LIST - DO NOT READ IF IMPATIENT

1. When I was in Junior 3, I was at his house, and I fell three meters off a tree. Nobody was home except him, the maids and me. When I went to the hospital they had to put three stitches in my mouth. He elt so bad, and he kept on telling me to tell my dad that it was all his fault (:

2. Alex's house has these strange pillars in the living room. I used to get bored and start climbing these. One day, while I was climbing, I didn't realize Alex was right behind me, so I turned around exclaiming that "I can climb!" and meaning to throw my fist in the air. Instead, my fist collided with something that looked like Alex's face (:

3. Alex's house is the PERFECT place for BB Gun fights. I'm the photographer (:

4. After our O Levels, we all wanted to burn our books. Everyone chickened out, so, although we were still there, it was just us burning HIS books. The flames were green! (:

5. There were some epic moments in DragonWorld (http://terrakotenshima.blogspot.com/) including the crazy fights with Xero (:

6. In 200-something-ish, we went to the Maldives. Submarines, resorts, Airport Hotel. I turned him into some sort of devil/punk, making his hair stick up (:

7. He is (or was) OBSESSED with soya sauce. Everytime he had to eat here he'd ask me if there was any. And no, there wasn't. Because he finished it two months ago (:

8. He hates Mango, so I used to chase him around with it. Fun (:

9. We had a glass door in our old house. He sometimes forgot it was there. Ouch (:

10. His house has more than 14 doors, so it's ideal for run-and-catchers. A couple of years ago, we both ran around the corner from opposite sides, through the same door, without seeing each other. I think my right eye's never been the same, and neither has his forehead (:

11. We used to play "Kitchen" and pretend we owned a restaurant. We even made menus! (:

12. His garden was also ideal for playing Lord Of The Rings. I was Legolas, he was Aragorn, Max was Gimly (:

13. We used to play something he invented: "Travel". I was this guy, who was awesome at skateboarding, and he used to be what we call the "Process", and he'd always let me be rich and famous (:

14. Pokemon World, that was about the same (:

15. We would go to the Havelock Bungalow every week, and if it was a Saturday, PokeBalls would "fall" from the sky. Otherwise we would wait for the guy there to chuck his keys in the water, and jump off the bridge to get it back (:

16. He used to dress up as a girl. Sometimes for fun, sometimes for occasion. Once for my birthday party, and then he'd flash everyone. Sigh, he got so into it (:

17. For a History project on the French Revolution, we dressed him up to look like that king person. And as a woman, advertising a broomstick (:

18. As another History project, we created an entire game, called "Sri Lankan Life". We were tiny, but it was AWESOME (:

19. In Ray Man, for the PS2, we got stuck, because this plum fell in the water and it wasn't supposed to. We couldn't do anything, so Alex decided that if we SAVE the game, it'll go back to normal. Big mistake. We had to start the game from the beginning (:

20. We're obsessed with EyeToy. Usually do all those military races and things (:

21. His garden is ALSO ideal for football (:

22. His mum once set up a long, red slide. It was so much fun, but we both had horrible cramps after that (:

23. There was a snake in his Garden O.o We locked all the doors and closed the windows AND got on the top of the bunk bed, so that it wouldn't get to us. That was scary (:

24. One day we spent about half an hour trying to open a can of baked beans, because we were meant to make breakfast. both of us tried with that stupid can opener, with all our strength. With no result. Then, Alex's mum walks in: "Morning guys, why are you using the broken can-opener?" (:

25. He always has this famous chocolate eating game, where everyone gets to role a dice, and whoever gets a 6 needs to put on a hat, glasses, a shawl and start cutting open the wrapping on the chocolate with a fork and knife (:

26. We once prepared a snack, and put some biscuits in the table, without realising there was a gecko in them. When Alex DID realise, he poked it with a stick, and it's tail fell off. Onto the plate. It was gross (:

27. There's a specific tree at his house which we love climbing, so we decided to put a rope on it to slide down. We tried. Without gloves. It wasn't pleasant. With gloves, they burnt through so fast that we removed the rope again (:

28. Nathan, Dominique, Max, Alex and me used to play Spider-Man, like Travel, or Pokemon. Once there was a fire, so Nathan (who was playing everyone else, and at the time was playing someone named "Abu") screamed "Fire!". Dominique ran straight towards it, thinking it was in the opposite direction (:

29. We built huge cities out of Lego and Kapla (:

30. One night, when Andreas came from Switzerland, and Alex was sleeping over, we walked into the room when Andreas was playing Final fantasy X. When Nathan asked him what he was playing he just said, "Oh, just some new Playstation 2 game I bought." They flipped (:

31. We used to play a game we call the "You-Can-Be-Anything-Game". Basically, the point of it is, you can be anything (How'd you guess?). We used to argue about what we were, because we always wanted to be the best (:

32. We used to play X-Men, in real (:

33. Nathan used to create Bowzer Land for us, with the cushions and matresses, and then he would move them, and pretend the floor was lava (:

34. Aikido is definitely something to remember (:

35. I straightened Alex's hair for him, and he realizes how long and out of proportion the back was. So I cut it (:

36. We watched the world's most awesome movie together: Die Welle. Amazing O.o (:

37. At Nathan's fifteenth birthday party, we did this incredibly strange dance. It started with carrying Max in and putting him on a chair. Then Julia and Vanessa did this odd voodoo thing, while alex and me pretended to be camels walking around in circles around the scene of magic (:

38. We danced at my birthday party. It was fun, but everyone teased me for the next year or so. But how else could we apply what we learnt before? (:

39. He LOVED our cats, Bagira and Balu (:

40. At Halloween we teamed up as a Bloody Doctor and Nurse (:

41. And the next year as an Egg Hopper and String Hopper (:

42. He came as a Cereal Killer, when I came as a Spider (:

43. He recognised me immediately when I was scaring him in the Horror House in Junior 5 (:

44. We used to attempt to run on water whenever we went to the Jaic Hilton (:

45. Also at the Jaic, we used to hide under (and sit on op of) this tutrle shell thing, from the kids' playing area (:

46. We used to play "Sharks" at Jaic too (:

47. ...And apparently, airport, by the slide.. (:

48. We read Harry Potter to distract us when we were getting our Measles shots. He was too scared, never took in a word (:

49. We had Harry Potter reading races when the fifth book came out. He still hasn't finished. (:

50. Troll in the guest room. Nathan gave us different levels of difficulty (:

51. We used to play Lord Of The Rings, Lego version, and I would make little beds by sticking capes to lego pieces (:

52. He was obsessed with Card Tricks, so he tought me those too (:

53. We invented this fantastic game called "Pick Up 52". basically, you take cards, and chuck the through the fan as hard as you can. Whoever picks up more wins (:

54. I "asked him out" when I was in grade 2, or 3. It was the most ridiculous thing I've ever done. "Alex, weisst du das du mein boyfriend bist, aber ich nicht daine girlfriend?" - which means, "Alex, do you know that you're my boyfriend, but I'm not your girlfriend?". And this is how it ended: Tammy says, "And now you like me!" Alex says, "Actually no, I like someone else now." Tammy: "Okay." The END (:

55. We used to pretend to live in Harry Potter's world too. With Nathan's help. Once, Voldemort came up to us and said "Join me or die," so we did, and it turned out it was a simulation planned by Dumbledore to see who's loyal. I was so upset that I'd betrayed them (:

56. Magic World - I was in the army. Some crazy battles - Masurian lakes, Maza. Ambushes. Connors - his death made me cry :( The brick wall in Alex's house which we had to touch to enter.. (:

57. We acted together in "A Giant's Giant Pizza." (:

58. We tried to rewrite the Harry Potter books (:

59. We attempted to make a movie: Humans vs Predators (:

60. We DID make a remake of the David Blaine Parody. Majour success (:

61. I've written "USB in washingmachine" on the list. I think that means he left his USB in our washingmachine. Don't remember that (:

62. We tried to make a Great Gatsby movie too! Never worked.. (:

63. On the beach at the Mount Lavinia Hotel, it was raining and thundering. Nathan and Alex were in the water, I was a bit further up on the beach. Matt was telling us to get inside, but they figured they'll be okay. The look on their face was priceless when lightening struck about 50 meters away. They looked at each other for about five seconds and the screamed and RAN for the roof (:

64. Our Runescape and Club Penguin accounts still exist (:

65. We would try to collaborate at Staemme / Tribal Wars (:

66. I collect TicTac boxes, so he bought me one with the capacity for 100 TicTacs (:

67. I puked in a sink at the Mount Lavinia Hotel, when I was overnighting at his dad's (:

68. Max picked up the phone and it was my cousin. Alex and me heard him scream because a snake landed on his foot (:

69. Alex borrowed my JoJo CD four years ago. He claims he saw it recently (:

70. Dragonball Tenkaichi. Enough said (:

71. Street Rage, another "real-life" game. With that awesome car, Eddie Cruise, and Eddie Ride.. (:

72. Underwater Uno, at the Jaic Hilton. The cards just hovered underwater O.o And when we played on top, they floated!!

73. Both our Art and German O Levels clashed, so we did our Art exam, and then were taken to school with Body Guards. At least, they were escorts. We weren't allowed our phones. One Escort reada "New Message" which turned out to be very, very personal O.o Anyways, when we arrived in school, we weren't allowed to speak to anyone except eachother. Everyone was like "Hey! How was art?" and we would just stare at them.. We had to ask the invigulator to buy our lunch for us. And we started the exam early coz we were the only ones. AND we finished abotu half an hour early and they let us leave (:

74. When we had our other German paper, we were going through our stationary to see if we had everything. TWO seconds after he claimed he forgot his ruler, he found one on the floor, at which he claimed: "Ask, and you shall receive." (:

75. We skipped school to finish our O Level Art Portfolios (:

76. In Junior 3, we went on a class trip to the zoo. First, the owls were missing, so we started screaming at them. Their reaction: they flew out wihtout us noticing and crapped all over us. Visiting the Lion: It raised it's tail and peed at us! (:

77. Swing dancing - unforgettable (:

78. He broke one of the sets in my toilet, and he was so scared my dad would get mad (:

79. Nathan used to give us stories with the soft toys, including Junior 4 tails, and stories about Noklu and the Golden Toilet - Priceless (:

80. There was one TV channel, where I don't really remember the name. It featured a golden pillow in the shape of a heart, which sang: "I am a bum... I am so beautiful.." (:

81. One famous movie - "Hole In The House". It was about two guys, who break their house and try to fix it. (:

82. We pretend Devil May Cry is real. Once, we were playing next to the window, and Alex and me didn't see the lightening. The thunder was so loud, that both of us jumped onto the couch and were shaking from head to toe (:

83. We used to play DinoCrisis, where Nathan was the dinosaurs, and we would have to kill them or somehting. once we were so scared that when Nathan stuck out an action figure and shouted "Action Man," we ran right back to the TV room (:

84. When Alex removed his shoes in the car, we almost fainted. My dad got so mad :P (:

85. We invented a game called "Matrix". I don't remember why it was called that but it had nothing to do with the point of the game. The point was to put as many ice cubes in your mouth as possible. Without spitting (:

86. Tagmarie, with the cards, and all the crappy actions. We invented our own once, with other random stuff. (:

87. At the Jaic, we would play Harry Potter. If someone says "Dementor" we would stand up (Because it's cold). If someone says "Chocolate" we would sit (because it's warm). (:

88. We used to take Grapfruit and keep it in our mouth and then bite it in such a way that the juice comes out (:

89. We used to turn Pommogranate seeds into machine gun fire (:

90. We drew our own $1000 notes and got them photocopied 100 times (:

91. We used to play this game which we name "ScarFace". It's called that because the point of the game is to chuck this soft toy around and once it hit the fan and got a scar across its face (:

92. He dared me to drink coke mixed with ketchup. I did. (:

93. I dared him to eat a chewing-gum out of the dustbin. He did. (:

94. We had Maths classes where we used to pretend we were on msn, by passing notes (:

95. At my party, he was always the last to Sit Down in the Sitting Down Game, so first he had to wear a swimsuit, then he had to wear a Two piece and the a Bikini (:

96. We used to steal Cinnamon in Street Rage :P (:

97. Once we went to a spice festival where they were giving away one massive cinnamon stick per person. I went to ask for one for my two brothers. so I got three. Alex asked for one for his brother and sister, so he go three. Max asked for one for HIS brother and he got two. Alex's mum asked for one for her two sons and one daughter so she got four. All in all, we got 12 cinnamon sticks. They were supposed to make cake, but i never got any (:

98. We cooked lunch. It was awesome O.o Potatoes and salad. Probably one of the best meals I've ever had! (:

99. I live next to a supermarket, so once, the two of us went there, and for some reason, Alex had a fake knife in his pocket. The guard was eyeing us suspiciously all the way home. He ended up going back to tell the guard it was just a toy knife (:

100. When Alex cam to ballet with me, my teacher was telling us all to follow his example because he was doing all the excercises. When he left, they called him "Romeo" :( (:

101. Alex made an impossible phone call when he had to find out where he ahd to pick me up. He had 0.57 Rupees credit. No idea how that worked (:

102. I woke up Alex at five, so that he could drop me home so that I could go joggin with Sarah. When we got home, he said he'd come. He left the house with us, though he was on his bike. When we looked around he was gone. Turns out he went back to my house to sleep (:

103. We used to spray each other crazy with Partey Spray (:

104. Little Crappy "Ohh-oh-oh-ohh's". Unexplainable.. (:

105. When the Computer wasn't working, we unplugged ALL the cables and replugged ALL the cables again. It worked! (:

106. On the way back from Bolghoda Lake, Alex fell asleep in the car, and fell on the floor without waking up.

107. Last one, on the class trip: Being caught red-handed reading a magazine with teh Pussy Cat Dolls on the Back.. (:

108. Doing absolutely NOTHING. I went for an overnight, woke up at around 12 and didn't say anything to him. He didn't say anything either. He just sat down on the chair so i sat on the bed, and we were staring out of the window for about half-an-hour (:

I miss you Alex :(
