Ramfest 2010.


Ramfest R350
Booze for the weekend +- R1000
Food +- R500
working in the sun from 08:00 till 21:oo at night. PRICELESS.

so as it worked out i went to Ramfest at the last minute.pleasantly surprised with an extra passenger that we bullied into the car, basically packed for her and gave her no choice. we were in this together, besides how hard would we have to work? oh how ignorance is bliss.

we arrived on Thursday. the comedy take out was our first night. with a buckle for a braai,butternut in the fire , " i have never" and anneke pouring us unholy shit vodka , beyond excited. and the drinking commenced while working out shifts, our team captain, Daniel was so
nice as to be the organized one. little did we know that these shifts would be changed to 13 hours later.
the first day was absolute chaos, with the sun making us her bitch and our feet and legs not working together after the tenth hour. and i lost my voice from all the screaming " twee Ann-kind" random shouting out of numbers became our communication way with a hanging cigarette from the corner of mouth-vibe.

but after our shift ended we headed up too the tent and started the party before Fokof took the stage at 00:00. i cried. i always cry with skynheilig, something about the lights,,being underneath the stars and the feeling of just complete brilliance. the night somewhat ended at about half past four in the morning with me , anneke,Daniel and buckle braking down tree's and making a fire. Because we just wanted too. sitting on the grovel talking about Hitler and Marie-Antoinette..
the next morning my alarm went off at 08:30 and buckle was suppose to be reporting for duty at 08:00. he was still sleeping quite soundly. a very "one-syllable" character in the morning that one. and one i got to know very well over the weekend..terrorising cars together and dancing to the Heuwels. i was excited to see Rudi again.a boy which i have grown very fond over, and he dominated the swimming pool with his SPF nose and beer in hand.shouting obscenities and laughing like just mister cronje can.


Once again we headed off to work a 13:oo minus one comrade, she had fallen to the flu and went home. siestog. the day was very interesting with us receiving a bomb threat( i still don't kn ow if they just picked on my gullible demure) four tents burned down and i think i consumed about 120 red bulls. but from 19:oo up until 00:00 my favourite bands were playing back to back starting with Taxi violence.i ended up loosing everyone because of the immense mass of people, so i retired to the tent.

Sunday was homeward bound but not before i laughed until my cheeks were hurting. blue-jol (blue tooth)and jol-toothe still makes me giggle randomly in a supermarket line.

the Naff- naff made a comeback. i got to meet amazing people with no skaam,i got to know some people better .i really felt at home with these guys. and fell in love with everyone of them.

here's to Ramfets 2011. All hail Mary. and if i ask you for your ticket , don't look at me like I'm asking you too undress i nay have already been working for 11hours and i might be unpredictable. just hand over the bloody thing.
