I was sitting in Year 7 English. We were combined with another class, so there were close to 50 people in the room. The bell for the last period had just gone, and everyone was slowly making their way into the classroom.

“…as heads is tails / just call me Lucifer / ’cause I’m in need of some restraint”

Nothing makes me more energised and giddy than the magical hours spent at a music event. I’m talking festivals, concerts, bush doofs, clubs, bars, gigs or even someone’s over-cramped house party at four in the morning. These settings allow people to dance their hearts out, socialise, celebrate, experiment, make utter fools of themselves (all in good spirit) and temporarily shed the weight of the world — which is the very essence of life. Like most universal rituals of festivity, they are also places where high levels of drug consumption take place, sometimes even as a social prerequisite.
