And so it ends...or does it?

It went better than expected.
This JP, I didn't really play much 360. But who gives a shit?
There was plenty of other stuff to do.
We did a few retarded covers, 21 Guns, Love Drunk and so on.
Then we went cycling around the neighbourhood (jackie has 6 bicycles)
And a little something extra. Dumbortz led the way of course...
You probably remember what he did with the car.
So Robin (J's bro) has a bike. No, not the manually powered kind.
Soap was just nuts. But he's a freakin natural.
I found a discarded white pipe (wire casing?). Made a good lance.
Of course, I was on a bicycle jousting a freakin BIKE. =p
Then we finally got the 8 player LAN for the 360s. 7 actually. Who cares?
Halodude certainly lived up to his name....
His individual score in one match was higher than the enemy team score.
But I'm glad to say that me and Megadeath are about tied for second XD
Other games too..Modern Warfare 2, L4D 2, Brutal Legend..
As usual, Bugs was stuck to the com playing DotA.
I like DotA. But during JP? Man, we got better shit to do.
And then we screwed around the golf course (Soap ran around with the flag)
Took a shitload of videos and photos. I'll post 'em if I can.
Dinner was great. Sort of nasi lemak buffet.
Then Halo until about midnight...then...
Water battle was subdued at first, cuz there were so many lazy fags..
But most joined in. New party event - Hide And Seek!! Lame? I think not.
Put it this way. At night, Jackie's garden is a veritable jungle.
Instead of fighting us head on, the 'tards on the other team hid. Well.
Me, MegaDeath, Street2fifa and Soap roamed the area searching.
J was found the most often. But he sure can remain still.
The idiot crouched in a corner near the table, smiling, for like 5 minutes.
We saw him. He just crouched there and smiled. You know what happens next.
But he had this fiendish place (in between the hut and the pond)
Almost impossible to see.
Bugs and Jon were great. They hid behind the bushes at the wall.
We thought they went in and didn't realize it for like twenty minutes.
Jon is definitely the greatest. He fucking hid under the car.
And since it's got a low undercarriage...
This time, we actually slept late - most of us, anyway.
Late? 6 am. However, three fags slept early.
Therefore, Halodude, Street2fifa and Soap LOrd are exiled for a week =D
Next day, pretty much the same stuff. But still awesome.

I've decided to add a new segment - RETARD AWARDS!
These are special medals for random stuff. 3 tiers - gold, silver, bronze.

The "Munchykin" award.
Goes to retards who contribute greatly to our munchies =D
Gold - Dumbortz. He made a masterpiece out of Maggi Mee and eggs.
Silver - J0HnA55. I invented Retard Juice, remember the cinnamon? =p
Bronze - Bugs. For eating half my lunch once. After he ate his.

The "Gametard" award.
For those who just kick ass at games.
Gold - Halodude. In the words of Jon - Fuck off man! Give us a chance!
Silver - J0Hna55. Nope, I haven't rigged this. I haven't played for ages.
Bronze - Street2Fifa. He made a damn big improvement. Miss old times XD

The "Jackassery" award.
The title says it all.
Gold - Soap Lord. We try to be retarded. He doesn't need to try.
Silver - Jon. Maybe the fact he was drunk helps here, Mr Flasher.
Bronze - Jackie. Plus all that gay shit, you got a winner.

I can't think of any more awards at the moment.
Please leave suggestions in the chatbox.
And check out "Cold Blooded Christmas" on Youtube by Jon LaJoie.
Me and MegaDeath were having a laughing fit not even halfway.

A few promotions.
Martin's up to Platinum for sticking around.
That's an achievement. Seriously.
All those who came to JP09 are now Platinum with Honors/Dishonor
Cuz every single one was freakin retarded XD

JP'09 was a blast.
But the day flashed by and now, we're about to face another year.
Sometimes, I find it a bit of an anticlimax.
Yeah, its awesome. Something to look forward to.
Then it's over. And we wait another 365 (or less) days for the next.
Face another year of shit, exams, the works.
It almost seems too short.
Maybe we've all been looking at this the wrong way.
JP is great. Nice house, food, entertainment, everything.
But the real point, is something much simpler.
It's us.
Before, I've always wondered, how long is this gonna last?
Every year, it gets harder to plan.
People change, move away.
And we're only in secondary school (well, it's not 2010 yet)
But what happens when we go to college? (in a few weeks for me)
And university? People migrate, study overseas, go on holiday...
It's nearly impossible to get everyone down for that one special day.
And then we have to deal with limits, of course.
That's kinda obvious, and we're lucky J's dad is so nice to us.
So struggling through the whole year for one and a half days of fun?
(I'm kinda ignoring the other stuff for purposes of the post XD)
I think we've missed the point all along.
Let's try and find other venues, other pursuits.
There are loads of great stuff to do out there. We haven't tried.
JP was never about the games, food, movies, music we all love.
It's about the group of us that have stuck together all this while.
It's not the tenth anniversary of one party.
It's the tenth anniversary of our friendship.
Let's enjoy JP while it lasts.
And find new stuff along the way, events where more people can come.
Cuz you guys are fucking awesome. All of you.
Now gtfo before I change my mind =p

oh and Happy New Year.
Think of the good stuff, not the bad.
Hope [US] lasts forever.

Sincerely (for once, that's a surprise XD)
