I have no idea what I'm going to write in this blog, normally 'Goat', is the theme central to all of my blogs; this post will be no exception. I'm pretty sure this will be the 99th post on this site which is a fair achievement for such a small, local blog. Okay, I think I might have an idea. Might just talk about the history of Hills Hood for this blog, and also, Goat.
This is my recollection of how the Hills Hood street gang came to be.
The Incorporation of Hills Hood (Mid 2004,Year 11)
Pretty sure GTA: San Andreas had just come out. Everyone was talking 'bout it n shit, I played a lot of GTA and thought I was a nigga. Tim Laf, Trav and I were walking back from the oval and heading to our Intro Calc class. We were talking about GTA and street niggas, I was like "Yeah, we're the Hood boys", Trav was like "Fuck you Hood boys! This is the Hills."
Pretty sure this was where the two Hills Hood factions first started, a fierce rivalry soon developed between the two.
The Proclamation of Hidden Creek (Unofficially 2001)
I first discovered Hidden Creek as an eager young 13 year old in the November of 2001. I even wrote my name with chalk on the rock surface that day. From then on, I travelled through Hidden Creek many times on bike and on foot, on my way into Hills territory to discuss Hills Hood issues with the Hills brigade. It is a very spiritual place and is the cornerstone of the Hills Hood organisation as it represents peace, strength and the occasional export.
It is also approximately halfway geographically between the Hills and the Hood, and is a neutral meeting ground for both Hills and Hood members alike.
Hills Hood granted exclusive rights to Hidden Creek (2004, Year 11)
I used to ditch period 25 on a Wednesday or Thursday of school almost every week. Occasionally during this time and also after an exam had finished, myself, and sometimes Goat, would walk home via Hidden Creek. Around August 2004, the Hills issued a challenge to the Hood for a 2-on-2 basketball challenge. We told the Hills to meet us at Hidden Creek as a sign of 'Good Faith'...they declined. I think Goat may have went, I chose not to (probably Jackin' it instead). Anyway, Goat rocked up in Hills turf only to be shocked by the fact that the Hills had called up a 'ring-in' to make the match 1 vs 3. Goat lost the subsequent match (surprise surprise) and Hidden Creek was claimed by the Hills Hood.
The Inaugural Hills Hood Tennis Court Cricket Match (2004/2005)
Like I said before, we ditched almost every period 25 on a Wednesday/Thursday, one afternoon two Hood members and two of the Hills finest, faced each other off in a battle for glory! The Hood lost...we just kept choking. Like, we'd be kicking ass, but we'd always fuck it up. I honestly reckon it was because the Hills kept changing rules as we were going which favoured them. But yeah, it was awhile before the Hood finally one a HHTCC match, but since then the Hood hasn't looked back!
Many Hills Hood challenges were created in the next couple of years: Gamecube, Wii, drinking, JJI?, spiking Goat's drinks (more of a Hills + me versus Goat challenge)...and so on.
The incorporation of the Hills Hood blog (May 2006)
Blogs were all the craze back in 2005 (our last year of school). We used to all use WindowsLive Spaces to blog about our thoughts and whatnot. Biggles on the other hand, convinced us all that Bloggers were better. Biggles' blog was actually interesting and very lively back then Steatopygous Simon. His blogs were very interesting and very cutting-edge, Lodge even had a blogger or two (both have been deleted since). We used to write anonymous comments on both blogs all the fucking time (mainly Trav and me). One day we decided to make a rival blog i.e. Hills Hood.
Hills Hood was so powerful that it wiped both of Lodge's blogs off the internet and raped the shit out of Biggles'.
First Wedge Trip (July 2006)
Wedge has always been a big part of Hills Hood culture. The trip north is normally preceded by the end of a Uni semester, but not always. First time we went up to Wedge under the Hills Hood name was July 2006; I was pretty down cause I had failed Uni big time; Lodge could really sink piss and was also a bit wild; Trav probably had just started to get wild; and Goat was confused over a couple of ditsy girls.
It was a good experience because we were just 18 and hadn't really done too much shit like that by ourselves. It was pretty crazy actually:
- I nearly accidentally stabbed Trav in the eye with a metal prong. Only millimetres away from fucking his eye up. Very stupid.
- Trav and I fought again, we used to end up fighting all the time. Probably just immaturity..who knows.
- Lodge smashed 12-14 beers and went driving absolutely fucked off his face.
- Trav threw all of the petrol Goat brought up for the Generator onto the fire.
The main story I remember from that trip was spiking the fuck out of Goat's drink, and getting him absolutely raped! It would have to be in the top three times I've seen Goat drunk, probably even top two. Goat was so gone he was telling his all his fantasies about these girls who he liked, and like everything else about them. It was an interesting experience to say the least. One of those girls Goat, she was actually pretty nice, you will probably think I'm a cunt for constantly bringing her name up LoL. But she was nice (have a crack man!).
So that was the story of how the Hills Hood came to be by and large.
