Easter Sunday

Last night was fun. I went downstairs to the Fat Camel bar for the complimentary free nachos. They were ridiculous. Five nacho flavored Doritos with Salsa on top. No cheese! After I ate my "nachos" I sat in the corner of the bar and drank a couple pints and read the live music guide. over and over and over. There were only about 9 people in the bar at a given time. I went down to a club called Fusion where the dudes(Saq, Dan, and Kelvin) from my flat said theyde be. I walked in and Saq(aka Jihadi) yelled "IAN JOHNSON!" Tapping random people on the shoulder and yelling "IAN JOHNSON IS IN THE HOUSE! PORTLAND, ORYGON!"
Eventually he told the MC something and the MC yelled on the mic, "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...IAN JOHNSON IS IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT!"

I checked out at 10am and began planning my trip up north. The chic at reception recommended taking Naked Bus to Whangerei, then hitching to Kaitaia, so that is what I shall do. Naked Bus leaves at 4:15pm so I'm just chilling until then. I went to Star Mart during my time to kill for a bottle of water and there were three peeps in front of me at the register getting a shit load of power bars and water. I noticed American accents and the dude wearing the hat turned around and it was Ethan Hawke! I was thinking about all the stupid shit I could say to him, "You in town doing a movie?" "You should probably buy a few more energy bars." I opted on saying nothing.

I semi stalked them down to the docks. I had this vision of asking if they could use some work on set. By the time I got down there him and his friends were already on the whale watching boat, so I just took a papporazzi photo so you skeptics would believe me. His friend waved at me while I was taking it whicj made me feel awkward, so I took photos in the opposing two directions so it looked like I was doing a panoramic.
