[ mood | confused ]

no spoilers. laurenia hasn't seen it yet.

i don't really know what to think about it.
i'm about to watch the confidential.
maybe it'll make more sense after that.

good episode. but i can't express enough, that i don't know what to think about it.

hrgn.

so, i'm back.
still needing to get used that it's so dark here at night...
i was getting used to walking home at 2am in almost daylight.

dance camp was fabulous. i had such a great time.
of course it was exhausting. almost six hours lessons a day, meetings in the evenings, evening classes
(confidence on the dancefloor, anyone?) and then straight off to social dancing until the wee hours...

of course, there are downsides. i've got almost eaten alive by mosquitos (tragical_mirth: you should stay faaaar away from south sweden. the beasts are HUGE!), and i have seriously swollen ankles since yesterday (i blame the heat). and there might be a cold coming my way... :o( the famous herräng-bug... ah, well.

and off to work tomorrow... grah.

defenitely going again next year!

Your result for The Which Major U.S. City Are You? Test...

WASHINGTON DC!

You scored 63% Style, 36% Climate, and 59% Culture!

You are Washington, DC. The District of Columbia—identical with the city of Washington—is the capital of the United States. It is located between Virginia and Maryland on the Potomac River. The district is named after Columbus. The federal government and tourism are the mainstays of the city's economy, and many unions, business, professional, and nonprofit organizations are headquartered there. Among the city's many educational institutions are the Catholic University of America, Georgetown University, Howard University, and Gallaudet University. Cultural attractions include the National Gallery of Art, the Smithsonian Institution, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the Folger Shakespeare Library.


Alright, I'm biased. I practically live in DC, and I think it's a great city. You got DC because you love city life, you're stylish, and you appreciate culture and diversity. You don't mind crowds, in fact, you probably really like to people-watch. And I stuck you in a good place to do it. You like to go out and have fun and soak up the culture, whether it's to take in an artsy film, see a play, or even go shopping. I'm not too sure if you're a history geek or not, so if you don't like it, at least you can just look at the pretty monuments and take pictures. You probably have a very nice personality because you're accepting and more on the liberal side, and you know how to make a good impression. Well done.

the story goes on forever... [02 Jan 2010|05:28pm]
[ mood | geeky ]

i just finished "the end of time" back to back for the second time.
and believe me, i tried hard to be critical.
i only have two words, and you'll hate me for that:

UTTERLY BRILLIANT!

i made my peace with rtd...

A universe is trapped inside a tear
...

How much deception can you take
How many lies will you create
How much longer until you break
Your mind's about to fall

so, i'm back.

the last few days in liverpool have been bliss.
just strolling around, browsing through shops, reading...
i saw terminator: salvation. on opening day...
was pleasantly entertained and surprised how good it is.
*purrrrrrrrrrrr* christian bale is sooooo hot.
and sam worthington isn't bad to look at either.
and all the robots, they're genuinely scary.

and it's scary how i keep typing the "z" when i want a "y"...
(the're opposite on english keyboards, and obviously i have a swiss keyboard here.)

now off to unpack my bag.
laundry day tomorrow, very convenient.

ta-dah.

liverpool [01 Jun 2009|10:15am]
[ mood | calm ]

some thoughts about liverpool.

- why haven't i got "ferry cross the mersey" on my ipod.
would be so fitting.

- yes, they boast about the beatles.
even as hardcore-beatles-fan, you feel somewhat annoyed.

- i experienced my first fire-alarm. ever.
as soon as i entered the beatles story, the fire-alarm went off.
everybody was shooed outside. apparently it was false alarm, but the
firebrigade showed up, nevertheless.

- if they talk scouse, i don't understand one single word. honestly.

liverpool is fun.
but, i do miss manchester a bit.
