* Oh Whitney... Another great one gone.

* Joined some thousand others yesterday protesting against ACTA. [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and me met up to join a protest march. The weather was actually nice enough. The sun came out and the temperatures were bearable. Afterwards we went to a Mexican restaurant and had good food. After that kind of busy day I was so very lazy today. I wanted to clean my place but in the end just watched movies and listened to podfic.

* And I wrote fic. Not a long piece, just a little prompt I promised someone. It's not finished but there's only the ending missing. So I'll need a beta reader soon. Anyone want to read through a schmoppy little, non-AU J2 thingy for me?
It felt so good to write again. So good. Now I just have to save this feeling, this drive over to my Big Bang idea (and the last part of my AU).

* Two weeks until vacation. Plans are not final yet but if it works out it will be very cool.

... isn't a good idea. Really! After the last winter you'd think they' be prepared but that apparently is a word not part of the Irish vocabulary. And I thought Berlin was bad.Anyway, had to walk 20 minutes to the next bus station again on iced over ways this time. Fun not. At least we got a bus this time and didn't have to wait 20 minutes in the cold. Saw at least 15 men from the city working on the iced over walkways with ice picks and brooms. Sad thing is that it was all futile since it started snowing all over again. Yeah, how about using some sand or salt? No? I have the vague feeling that one of these days I might actually have 'snow-free' from work... uhm...

♥ My weeks was rather busy. It was really good to have [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish around and see some of the things in the city I hadn't seen yet. It was also nice to go to the pub almost every evening. We went to Howth (me for the second time because it's just beautiful there), went to Belfast (where I bought Punky the Dinosaur... well he looks like a punk so I named him Punky *hides* and yes there are pictures.), and on Friday we ended up touching a 800 year old mummy in one of the church vaults (was a crusader and it felt like stone, is supposed to bring luck. Well, we'll see).

♥ I also spent way too much money during that week... this city is way to expensive and too tempting sometimes. But it was fun and I don't regret anything.

♥ On to the writing woe. So today is the 29th, which means posting for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_xmas starts in two days. I haven't even started yet. Which means that I have started and deleted every attempt ever since. I just can't figure this prompt out and I don't have any ideas for the other prompts. *flails around* What am I gonna do? How am I supposed to write this?

♥ On the other hand the J2/Fast and Furious crossover works perfectly well and has crossed the 12k mark *headdesk*

♥ I feel random. I need J2 or happy Sam/Dean fic. Rec me? Please.

♥ Am off to watch some German soaps so that I won't have to think about getting ready to go home soon. I sort of don't want to but I miss home and stuff... and yeah.. but then, I do have a life here and I have work and... Meh... I'm torn.

♥ But I'm ready to be home for Christmas. Everything else will be dealt with afterwards.

♥ Hit me but I really like the Westlife cover of "The Reason"

Happy Birthday [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish!!
Have a great day.
*sends over cake and hugs*
the_milky_way: (spn (on the road))
Okay, so why did LJ randomly ate my entries?
Hmmpf.
Thank God for cache.

Fic first, for [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish, who gave me the prompt with:
SPN - Sam/Demon!Brady - It's not fun unless someone bleeds.
"Crash, crash, burn let it all burn (This hurricane is chasing us all underground.)"
R, 2.365 words

I wonder who will actually read this... Yay for rare pairings... LOL

♥ My weekend was good. First two days in the row that I was outside and didn't feel like I needed to sit down every two seconds.
Went shopping and grovey shopping on Saturday.. yay ice cream.

Yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and me decided to meet up and use the beautiful weather. There was a green environmental festival (like every ear) in the city organized by the group we both had interships at.
This year, due to the weather, it was very, very crowded. Got to see some things and there were SHEEP! See.. pic and video ).

On the way back we wanted to take the bus but it wasn't going the way we needed it to, even though it said so at the stop. Anyway at one of the most famous place in the city, right across from the Humboldt University and next to the State Opera there were masses of people and a huge video screen ). And a huge stage as well. It was the second day of the annual "Opera for Everyone" event that takes place every years, is held by the State Orchestra and sponsored by BMW. It was the last concert at this place for the next three years, since the house the State Opera will be renovated. It was very interesting to see people cheer fro classical music but Daniel Barenboim really is very much loved in this city. They played Tchaikovsky.

Stopped at Starbucks afterwards and had frappucinos. And I could rest my feet in the water. Which was very nice... for my feet ).

So yeah, I think I used the weather rather well and it wasn't too hot due to the slight breeze. I got a little color as well and don't look as sick as I did last week.

[livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang starts today!!!
Wheee...
Never thought I would have time right now though.
I so need a job.

I also should go back to editing my story for BB... oops.
the_milky_way: (alec (comfort))
All my thoughts and good vibes go out to [livejournal.com profile] mama24!
I wish I could send along the hugs I got from four incredibly sweet Irish guys yesterday.

So yeah yesterday was a really weird day and today I feel blah about everything.
At least listening to Westlife and to know how sweet those guys are is making it okay.

Also spending the afternoon today with my friends did wonders, too.
the_milky_way: (Default)
* I think I haven't done that in a really long time; meeting up with [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and going on a shopping tour. I didn't expect it to be this successful or to take this long. Finally got myself a penguin Starbucks tumbler. Yay... rather useless for anything but cofee or tea but pretty. And it has penguines on it. Not to mention the masses of chocolate and the Mike&Ikes that i bought. But I think I got some things that qualify as good outfits, among them a new coat, t-shirts and a dress I think I wouldn't even have seen or bought if Josi hadn't pointed it out to me. (BTW, [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish the yellow shirt looks awesome under the dress. Thanks. :)). My feet are dead now though. I hope I won't have to walk that much tomorrow, and seeing as the way from the train station to my cousin's place isn't all that long I should be fine.
Pictures anybody?

* I think when we were in one of the media stores we stumbled into the preparations for an iCarly autograph session. I distantly remembered seeing an ad for one of the actresses coming to this store but that was some days ago and I couldn't really be sure. When we left they were putting up the Nickelodean banner and I guess that means it was the iCarly thingy. I mean masses of teenies waiting in front of a small stage sort of points towards that.

* Is LJ eating entries again or is it my brower? My SPn review keeps on vanishing from my LJ but is back when I refresh again.
That is weird.
Also, question: what does it mean when the RealPlayer plays the audio but makes the pictures all scrambled and green? It's happening with various files and I have no idea what it is, since VCL is playing them just fine.
Any ideas?

* I want to make icons from last nights SPN ep but I suck at making them right now. I also want icons with Sam/Callen from NCISLA but the screencaps I get are shit and the frames are even shittier.
Meh.. Me, wants.

* I think I am off to watch my awesome new DVD that I got this morning and for which I had to go through an identity and age check: My Blood Valentine 3D Special Edition. At least i could prove I am over 18.
It is not really like the nice middle-aged sales lady at Douglas implied when she said I could aplly for a credit card like my mum when I am grown up. Hmm when exactly am I grown up when I am not at 28? I can't believe I am really looking that young that someone would actually think I am under 18. It's really flattering though.

Yesterday I met up with J and C (who generously sponsored my ticket. Thank you girls! *hugs*) to see Watchmen.
And even thoiugh this movie is long and has a lot of things to tell I liked it... a lot even. I am nto really awake enough to write anything remotely recognisable as a review but I did make some notes.
Spoiler for Watchmen ).

So not a real review. I just kind of woke up and I am still a little dizzy with sleep.
I only went to bed around 4am, because I couldn't fall asleep, which was weird sinvce I nearly missed my train stop on the way home because I was about to fall alseep. I guess a ride on the bike during 1am in the cold makes you wake up pretty fast, but I hate to walk home from the station so I always have my bike waiting for me there.
I spent the night watch the day's reruns of Life (which started here on TV early that evening and which I actually like. It's a good show to watch that late ebcause you are still able to grasp the concept despite being tired as hell) and Torchwood (which started as well and which I have seen a number of times already. I have to say the dubbing is not as bad I thought it would be. I have to find out who Jack's and Ianto's voices are, I know them).
I feel the urge to rewatch all of Torchwood now. *sighs*

***
Later today I'll be off to J's place to have our long planned *serial killer evening*, and I am aware of how that sounds. It's nothing bad though, just watching some movie and TV show episodes.
I am actually glad we are doing that today because I am kinda of stuck with some things again and I have the slight hope that one day away from things will make it easier to get back into it.
So not being home means I'll probably watch SPN a little later than usual (but there will still be a review... I can't go without my notes on that show. :)).
I am looking forward to it, it's the first time since season 2 that I am only minimally spoiled and so far I like it that way.

***
I on the way to finally finish my [livejournal.com profile] whenboymeetsboy fic.
First part is already with the beta and I am working on finsihing the second part.
I have no idea how this thing got so huge. I only had to start three times with it and I just wanted to have the word count and be done with it.
Now it's on the way to being epic and I don't really want that.

***
The best news I got yesterday is that [livejournal.com profile] anjaliss booked her flight for June to come up and visit me. I am so excited. We haven't seen each other in almost two years.
It will be so awesome. We have been making plans on what to do for ages now.
Wheee.

***
ETA: Is it me or is LJ not loading icons? I am not sure if it's me or not since it doesn't work in any browser I open.
*shrugs*

Bloody computer.


ETA2 And why the hell did my entry move up on my flist? There I go, leaving my LJ alone and my entries moves? WTF? I only unlocked it like half an hour ago, nothing more.
the_milky_way: (steve (where my river flows))
Had a nice day out with [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish. We went shopping and I found two nice tops for wheather like we have now.
We mad half a world tour through the city but it was fun, especially in this weather.

Anyway, I am off to London tomorrow morning (or should I say night?). So don't too many exciting things while I am gone.
I'll see you on the weekend of after Asylum. For those you are going to Asylum, have fun guys!!!!
And now I am going to check my things again because I always have the feeling that I have forgotten something.

And a little meme for when I am back. Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] kros_21
If you want me to do this, please tell me it precisely in your comment:

a) tell you why I friended you,
b) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.,
c) tell you something I like about you,
d) tell you a memory I have of you,
e) ask something I've always wanted to know about you,
f) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
g) in return, you must post this in your LJ.
the_milky_way: (Sam (geek))
She is at least playing with me and cuddling up every chance she gets.
So being away for a night is not a problem, good to know. Anyway, some pics just because I can and yes my camera is still broken (so all a bit blurry).
Kitty ). The date is obviously not right (I took the pics today).

Spent the night at Josi's place because I didn't want to drive home after her birthday party. The party was the gathering of the usual crowd (which is always fun) with food and drinks and talking and so on. I think we were quite silly, but hey that's nothing new. Talking through half of the night isn't new either but right now I am tired. Anyway, I had a good time yesterday.
So me being at a party last night and being tired now was the best excuse the send of brother-dear (who surprisingly showed up today, I have no idea why) in search of food.
the_milky_way: (sam/dean (can't get))
Josi and me met up with Claudia after uni last night. The conclusion that we are all crazy is nothing new and will probably never change, but that we can totally lose it, is actually a newer notion. Anyway, keywords are handporn, fandom, threaths to lives and stories and icons, mocking of fanish loves and obsessions and so on.
Since I am so bad at remembering all the good stuff and [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish has it all anyway, read it at her journal.

And on the way home I again was privileged to experience the non-information politics of the S-Bahn (namely DB). They actualyl think that when they close up half of the train netowrk every second weekend that people will get used to it and that they won't need to put up info after three or four weekends anymore. You know, I don't think they are aware of the fact that there are "different" passengers (people getting pissed at them) every weekend. It would have been nice to actually see info charts before I had to change from train to bus and not after I was actually at my home station. It would have been nice to have those when I left home and actually was at train stations on my way to uni. So it took more almost an hour to get home instead of 20 minutes. Argh...

On to the nicer parts again... Supernatural is back! This was what I needed after my odysee home, so I watche dit last night before I went to bed. I don't know if this was a good idea though. I had weird dreams, but at least I slept. I feel considerably awake now, despite the dreams. Anyway, SPN is back and the ratings seems to go back up again. Might be the eps getting better and well hiatus is over... So I hope things are looking okay.

I knew why I missed swimming meets. Pictures... and and...

Wow, LJ is back....

So here we go:
I seem to be unable to get things organized or at least make them less stressfull. Anyway, this week wasn't as stressy as the last one but it came close and I still feel like I haven't done anything useful. Oh and since LJ seems to have gone and vanished I have some time to actually sit down and write this entry. And it figures that when I am online no one else is.. hehe. Anyway, back to last week, before I really forget everything I wanted to write (not that is matters).

So Wednesday was spent mostly on trains since my prof at uni just doesn't know the concept of 90 minute classes. So I went to uni, spent like 40 minutes there to get sorted into working groups, went back to the station, caught the totally late express train (which was good for me, no waiting another 40 minutes at the station), went home, changed clothes because it was freezing (Hell it isn't winter yet and it started snowing for god's sake), went back to my station to go on a train to meet up with Claudia. She had a free press ticket for Aida and since I had time and was curious enough I said I'd come along. I am not really a Musical fan, and not at all of German versions, but this one really surprised me. And I liked it. I like the music and the acting. t was a really nice evening (despite the fact that we both kinda shivered through it).

So I was actually thinking about skipping uni on Thursday because I really needed a day to sleep but when I came home Wednesday my Mum presented me an appointment for a lung specialist. So I went. Which resulted in me having a camera shoved down my throat, the doc telling my lungs are scared and that I sghould watch out and better never cath pneumonia (d'uh I think I have to get away from all the infected people I am haning around with). I think I will do that, not that I planned on getting it. Anyway, spent the rest of the day sleeping and reading and watching DVDs. So yeah at least half a day to relax.

Yesterday was spent at Claudia's place. [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and I invaded it again. And I think it is common knowledge that we are crazy but I think sometimes we kind of over do it. Just a bit. It's fun though and I think I am still a shipper of a pairing I never ever in my wildest dreams would have thought of supporting/shipping (and I am still getting seasick and it's all YOUR fault. You know who is meant). Anyway, we wathced The Descent and I think as much as I like caves and stuff my claustrophobic tendendcies have doubled now. *shudders*

Today Halloween Party (and I will so cheer on my SPN obsession *nods*) and my cousin's birthday tomorrow. So full weekend and I am about to fall asleep again... And since LJ still is n't back I am going to rant on this weeks SPN ep now and got to answer mails afterwards.

****
So Supernatural this week. Spoilers ahead.
No Exit kinda disappointed me and I am not sure why. I think this one was the first ep of the 2nd season I partially fast forwarded, mostly due to that fact that I didn't want to see the scenes at 2 in the morning while being as tired as I was. I think I will rewatch it again, and maybe then my oppion will change a bit. For now though I think I am happy that this was the last Jo ep for a while )
I am looking forward to next week.. Because JASON GEDRICK!!!!
So SPN tied The OC season premier in ratings. Not bad for SPN, a drama for the OC and FOX though.

**
Do my entries get longer and longer now? I have no idea what's up with that though. I guess I am just lazy as hell some days.
the_milky_way: (jensen (smile for me))
I know I said it already but anyway...
Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish!! Have great one!
the_milky_way: (jensen (pout))
So I brought the mp3 player back to the store and got a new one. Seems like this one works. Even the radio does. Hopefully it'll stay like that.
While being there I used my gift certificates I got from my grandparents.
[livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish, I got "Les amants criminelles". :)

Some pictures of my birthday presents. Yes I was extremely bored today and I ecen started with my paper. See how bored I am?)
Piccies )

As for birthday presents, got my mum hers but still have to find some more.
[livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish you have to help me a bit.
3 options: - your favourite (slashy) Bollywood film, Keanu Reeves movie (I guess you know which one), or some kind of cosmetic stuff (you have been rambling about, to me at least :P, I just say Hair stuff). Tell me so I can decide, you know how bad I am with things like that.

[livejournal.com profile] sandrine, well I am still trying to come up with an idea (I guess I just had one). Anyway, I am looking for Blonde and will yell when I have it.

**
Back to the paper. God, I hate it, with vengeance.
Or I'll just go back to rewatching season one of SPN.
