Yes, I am seriously BORED TO DEATH. You were saying?

I was gonna walk the dogs, only to come out of the shower and realize that my parents had driven god-knows-where with them. Great :/

( This is probably going to be embarrassing )

I like this! And I'm totally not procrastinating, shut up

Day one • a song
Day two • a picture
Day three • a book/ebook/fanfic
Day four • a site
Day five • a youtube clip
Day six • a quote
Day seven • whatever tickles your fancy

The song of the day is... Bartering Lines by Ryan Adams. I really like the whole ~mood of the song.

DOWNLOAD IT HERE.

It's from the soundtrack of one of my favourite J2 Big Bangs this year, btw: "Talking Points". You should read it.

From adelate

You can learn a lot about someone by the music they listen to. So here is the game! Hit shuffle on your ipod or mp3 player and write down the first 26 songs. No cheating or skipping songs that are shameful. That is the fun!

( cut to save your f-list )

I think you might actually get to know me better by reading this meme. Which is kinda weird. lol?

I guess it depends on what they were listening to before!

But since most of my friends listen to rock, I'd recommend something that is in a different genre but not too strange that it isn't bearable.

For instance: "Atmosphere" (You or Puppets or Guarantees)

Or, in a completely different genre: Kane! Cause they're awesome. And most of my RL friends don't know them but I think they'd like them... (Spirit Boy!)

butterfly posted some more pics from the gig! :D



( more )

Steve's hair is getting curly again (Why did he cut it so short, anyway?) and Jensen looks incredibly gorgeous. Yay!

So, I just finished studying for the Ethics exam tomorrow. It's about Criticism Of Religion. Yay!

I never really paid any attention in class but now that I went over my notes I think it's quite funny how lots of things that I had figured out for myself are things that Marx & Nietzsche said, too! Hee.

Oh, and speaking of Criticism Of Religion! You should check out Coughlan666's youtube channel. He's a pretty cool, if slightly aggressive and crazy, guy - with a good opinion! And I'm always learning new curse words!


My music taste is incredibly weird! And I totally blame male!me for this developement:
The music I listen to these days?

Christian Kane, Atmosphere, Jason Mraz, Pornophonique, Steve Carlson.

How weird is that?

I loooove The Big Bang Theory. Oh Sheldon :D :D

( quick quote from last night's episode )

Also, MY MP4-PLAYER IS BAAAACK! LET'S HAVE A PARTY! :D

I might actually be able to sleep at night again. Seriously, I never realized how much I needed music at night until the touchscreen broke. I think I've been sleeping with music on for, like, one and a half years now. Huh.

Take that, shadows-under-my-eyes! I'm back in the game!

ETA: And theeere we go again! That fuck of a Mp4-Player stopped working again! Not the touchscreen but it got stuck on "loading, please wait" again. I'll have to wait until the power runs out (which will take ages cause I just charged the damn thing) and then hope that I can figure something out. Tomorrow morning, at best. Oh joy.

I hate Mondays. But then again, who doesn't?
I'm always freakishly tired, I'm too late for school on a regular basis and I've got geology in the first two periods. For the new friends: my geology teacher simply fails at life. He does!
I also hate Thursdays, because it's my busiest day: school, then meeting with the student magazine, then work, then homework, then falling into bed like a zombie and yet I usually don't actually fall asleep for hours.

I look forward to Fridays though. And not just because of the weekend! I've got the first two periods free, which means I can sleep until 8am and still watch the new Supernatural episode before going to school for politics & maths! Yay! Plus, my politics teacher is often ill, so I only have to be there at 11am for maths, and I kinda like maths so that's perfect! :D

By the way! I love Flight of the Conchords. I love The Carleton Singing Knights. So, this? Is a bit like heaven.

( you know you want to... )

Also, I totally dreamt of The Big Bang Theory! Sheldon saved my life and I'm pretty sure that Jensen and Jared were in there somewhere, too. Heeee :D
I love my brain!

Yes, I have nothing better to do. Like, studying for that german exam. Whatever.

You Should Light a Green Tea Candle

You are calm yet energetic. You take good care of yourself, and you have a lot of endurance. Like most people, you have a hectic life. But unlike others, you try to have as many moments of peace as possible. You're the type of person who's witty and insightful. You're secure with yourself, and you often have a hilarious take on life. You are expressive and apt to talk quite a bit. However, you're able to kick back and listen too.

This actually kinda applies to me!

Also:

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle. Hit the shuffle button. Do not pick and choose!
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: TAG PEOPLE! You music lovers were chosen for a reason!
Step 4: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

( Lyrics here! )

Also, I just bought two fairly small plants for my desk. It looks totally cute :D

It really is! My favourite interpret is still Dvorak, who wrote simply gorgeous music. Like, really really really beautiful stuff.

So anyway, I went to this concert today and, just, yay! A presenter who'd probably be awesome at stand-up comedy and who just kinda invented a new music instrument towards the end of the concert, 20 hornists and 2 drummers, Lord of The Rings references, Titanic, The Ultimate Idea Of Mixing Beethoven, Bach, Brams And God-Knows-Who And Finishing With A Lovely Rendition Of Happy Birthday, standing ovations and ohmygoditwasawesome!

And of course, being as awesome as he is, my sister's boyfriend was one of said 20 hornists :D

There's one more thing that'll probably make the awesome-ness of this concert pretty clear: Only hours after the advance sale of the concert tickets startet, the concert was already completely. sold. out. They actually moved to the 'Stadthalle' which has one of the biggest rooms in Kassel, and after a few more days, it was sold out. Again. W00t!

So, it's half past midnight and I've just finished watching some of Misha's panel videos (the guy is adorable and sexy and cute and perfect and did I mention ADORABLE) but I still have to write an essay for german and do some stuff for both physics and maths (got a maths exam on friday). Oh joy.

Then again, got some new clothes! Yay! Even though my feet hurt now.

ETA: LJ was down again! I hate it when it dies just when I clicked on 'Post to neyne'. I had to rewrite everything again!

ETA2: Going to check my f-list tomorrow then... well, later today.

Really! Blame adelate!

Anyhow, it is quite funny how, of the 1.246 songs I have on my laptop, only 6 of them start with a J.

Also, I may be in love with box.net! It's brilliant! And you don't even have to download the files, you can just listen to it online. And the design is gorgeous and simple. And it's all so easy and fast. Love!

Here are the instructions:

1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.

1. Jaqueline by Franz Ferdinand

2. Jacob's Ladder by Patrick Wolf

3. Just Another Goodbye by Steve Carlson

4. Jetzt Und Hier by Wise Guys

5. Just Like You by Three Days Grace


There you go!

For some reason I've been feeling dizzy all day... no idea why that is. I've spent the last couple of hours eating Fruit Salad and it's not really helping.

My Mp4 Player is working again though! Yay! So now I can actually listen Shannan Blystone's "Broken" again. She's pretty unknown...I think she's on myspace but that's pretty much it. However, that song will appear in a future Leverage episode! And it's really cool! Not to mention that girl is incredibly gorgeous. And apparently likes to take pictures where she is not really wearing any underwear. I am so not complaining.

I bought new shoes today! They are fake!converse...but with high heels! Hee, I love them.



And in reality they kinda look better than on that picture. But since I'm already posting pictures:

( not really that big, but i don't want to spam your f-list...so click here! )

School is pretty stressful right now. Not to mention annoying. Have I ever mentioned that my geology/biology teacher just totally fails? Well, if not: HE DOES. EPICALLY. I'm not even going to go into detail here. Though I've come to the conclusion that laughing about horrible things is better than despairing and giving up ones sanity. So... biology is actually kinda hilarious by now. Though that may have something to do with someone calling out fail!teacher a 'living condom'. Just...don't ask.

And I've really got to practise violin...like, right now. Apparently there will be three concerts in three different cities in March that no-one has bothered telling me about before. The stuff isn't too difficult, basically you just have to practise. A lot. So I guess that's what I'm gonna be doing now... have fun guys!

I think I've done this one before... but whatever.

1. Set your MP3/Ipod/Cellphone or any shit you use to listen music to Shuffle.
2. For each question you will press "next" to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THE NAME OF THE SONG, NO MATTER HOW STUPID IT SOUNDS.
4. Tag 10 people, including the person that tagged you. Do it if you want.

( under cut for lenght & randomness )

something is very wrong with my graphic tablet, or possibly with my desktop computer. which is especially awesome now cause i finally got photoshop again!

anyway, those two are great:

1.) Bones is awesome! Then again, any show where two dudes get in a shower together must be good :D

2.) I just got my books! Totally love my bookshop for that, they get all orders over-night.

3.) After YEARS I just found my Lordi CD in an old 'Walkman'. OMG I FOUND IT! You have no idea how long I was looking for that!

4.) New Year's Eve: Reissalat, Rippchen, Pride & Prejudice, a bottle of cheap champagne, sweet tea, Dinner for One, a very warm and comfy couch. I honestly can't complain.

Hey there!

Life's quite nice here right now.

I've uploaded a bunch of new icons (despite my tiny 15-icons icon space)
I've ordered three lovely books ("Watching the British" :D "Mother Tongue" and "The Time Traveler's Wife") and I'll probably order some more from amazon... has anyone read anything from Edgar Allan Poe? Is he good?

I won't be going out on New Year's Eve cause my mom's ill and everyone else is going out, so I will stay at home with her and watch Pride and Prejudice. Why yes, I like that film! And I'm not even ashamed to admit it! :D Anyway, I really don't mind. None of the New Year's Eve parties I've ever been to have been particularly great, so I'll hardly miss that. Plus, I won't be freezing my ass off! Hooray!

corchfalas, you are officially evil! Why did you have to start watching Bones? Cause now I've watched the pilot and I will probably not rest until I have watched all four seasons cause it's awesome and did I mention EVIL?! David's lovely there! Much better than in Angel, imhO. Though I kinda cringed when he said that he'd killed so many people, he wanted to save as many by doing his current job.
I mean, HELLO? We've had that!

Oh, btw! I was bored a couple of weeks ago and I do love Patrick Wolf, so I kinda covered his song "Epilogue". Well, I didn't record it cause I have nothing good to record it with, but I wrote the notes down. Which really sucks, by the way. Just playing it? No problem at all. Writing it down? Weeell, let's just say it took me a couple of hours.

Here you go!

The accompaniment:



The main melody:




See you :)

Hey guys!

I'm thinking about writing some sort of review of my 2008 - cause, you know, I've got nothing better to do... what do you think? Cool idea? Awful? Tomatos?

Anyway,

Since my Mp4-Player is working now (seriously though, who puts damaged software on a software cd?), I've decided to name it.

Now, I can't decide! (whether you should live or die - oh I'm going to kill RTD for this)

My laptop is called Evan because

A) Major Evan Lorne from Stargate Atlantis is pretty much the only reason I still watch the damn show. Oh, and the Deadalus. Whatever you say, space ships do count as characters!

B) I like the name - duh!

But... what do you call a Mp4 player?

My mom promised that, once I've got my own flat, I'll get two cats. Which I'll call Jack and Ianto ( :D ) so those are out.

I like:

Bradley (because I'm such a fangirl) and
Effi (I'm in love with that girl! Seriously! Then again, corchfalas' laptop is called Effi so that would be kinda uncool),
Paul (no reason whatsoever),
T.H. (I hope there's no meaning behind it. I just like the sound of it. In fact, I think that one's my favourite),
Zach (again, I'm such a fangirl! But still, Sylar rules. Or at least he did, in Season 1. I don'n even watch Heroes anymore cause now it sucks out loud),
Cas[tiel] (because no angel has ever rocked so much. oh, btw, did you hear the news? if there is a season 5, they'll make Castiel a regular on the show! Woohooo!)
Merry (oh Lord of the Rings I shall never forget thee, and god knows how wrong this sentence is in so so many ways. English Advanced Course? Me?)

...and that is pretty much it?

Any suggestions?

I totally forgot to tell you guys! I'm going to a Wise Guys concert today! :D
In fact, I should probably start getting ready.... :D

snagged from adelate (seriously, all this meme-posting? all her fault.)




I'm here again
It seems like everyday's the same now

And my words will be here when I'm gone

The night we met I knew that
My depth perception must be off again
It's been some change
They turn the lights down low

Pain, without love
I got some broken news:
Do you think about everything you've been through?
Got up on the wrongs side of life today

I know you said I got a nasty reputation
The state of the nation, violation
Birds flying high
A revolution has begun today for me inside

The force of my love was strong
And now it's all so clear to me

I am the tragedy

I ain't gonna lie
I'm not sober all the time.

I have music on my computer I don't know. How did that happen?

Anyway, today? Totally my lucky day.

Where to I start? Chemistry. Chemistry!

Thoughtsofneyneatabout7.45amtoday: .... - .... - HOLY FUCK WOOHHOOOOOOOOOO!

Remember the exam? The one I totally screwed up, cause I fail at Chemistry? Well, I got it back this morning and I got the 3rd best exam. 11 points, most guys have about 6. How awesome is that??

Then I wrote a music exam which was pretty easy, I wrote some good stuff, just hope my teacher thinks so, too.

English was okay, as always (as in: me=bored, teacher thinks i'm awesome... can't complain!).

Then, sports! I usually hate sports. A lot. And for the first hour I still hated it but...it got better! Now I'm in an awesome group of 6 awesome people - yay!

So, we've got to do a choreography, and not the dancing kind of choreography, but acrobatics. And we're going to do it to "Eye of the Tiger" - my idea, by the way. Yay²!

Unfortunately, since I hardly weight anything (Adrian: Are you up there? I'm not feeling anything..."), I'm always on top. Which can be scary...I don't wanna hurt anybody!

Still, the Eye of the Tiger thing is pretty cool. Now, meme time, and then I gotta go and do some work. See you!

WEARING: Gray fake!Converse, blue jeans, black top, green scarf and this.
ATE TODAY: a (warm!) chocolate-croissant (they only sell them on wednesdays! yay!) and "Maultaschen" for lunch. I think those are some German kind of thing, at least there's no direct translation.
THING LAST SAID: "An der Stelle könnte man jemanden hochwerfen!" (talking to my mom while listening to eye of the tiger)
LAST PHONE CALL: called mio_vio on monday, cause of the physics exam on tuesday. i don't really phone ppl that much....
LAST TEXT: lunchtime: "woohoo!"
LAST THING BOUGHT: coffee. if that counts. otherwise... socks! like, those really fluffy ones.
LISTENING TO: Smile Empty Soul - Silhouettes
LAST SHOWERED: last night
WENT TO BED/WOKE UP: 2am/7am
I NEED TO: study. study. possibly sleep a bit. and study.
WORST PART OF THE DAY: looking at all the stuff i've got to do now
BEST PART OF THE DAY: 11 points in chemistry! I mean, seriously. 11 points!
CURRENT ANNOYANCE: two ethics lessons tomorrow, might write an exam (would be the 6th this week then), might not. no clue.
CURRENT OBSESSION: not-falling-asleep-at-school
DID/DOING TODAY: overslept. got up, drank cappochino while getting dressed & ready, ran to school and actually got there before 7:30. science 'til 9:05, music exam 'til 10:50, english 'til 12:45, sports 'til 3:15pm. now, homework, writing a paper, studying, hopefully watching twilight and heroes or something. probably not.
