♥ Still moving, still not really done, but then I took Monday and today off. I didn't do anything at all because I felt (still do) like crap. Everything hurts and it's not just the moving. Not sure but I guess it's allergies. Meh.. Also some trouble with the electricity company which I hope will be solved soon. I am so not willing to pay that much, especially not when I'm alone and know that it's way less for three people. Argh...

♥ I do have internet and will have a broadband line soon (including new telephone number).I just don't really have time to be online. All I did today was sleeping and sending out applications. I didn't write or read anything (which I'll try to change after I posted this, at least when it comes to the reading part). Still haven't had the time to really do anything about Big Bang and it's just a month left. So I hope once I'm really settled in that I'll have time to finally get it all done. I have an outline, scenes sketched out and still love the idea. I guess I'll be able to get it done.. I hope.

♥ Still nothing about the job, so I'm looking for other offers as well. Media says it's looking good right now, only I don't see it. Not in my field.

♥ F1 has started back up and I don't know if I'm liking it so far or am totally disinterested. I like Sebastian. I like Mark and Jenson. But I'm not sure if I like the sport anymore. Kimi was probably the only getting me to really like it and be interested. Well, Kimi might go for NASCAR this summer (not sure if it will be him or just his team) and I might have something to giggle about again.

♥ Still obsessed with "Hawaii Five 0", still have only one OTP there. I really do need more time in the day, if only to be able to read more.

♥ I wanted to say more but I forgot what it was. Oh yeah, I'm so totally in love with Sam/Dean again that I really want more to read. Rec me your favorites please??? Self-recs are totally welcome.

♥ Tomorrow IKEA, Saturday bed room set up. Oh I see light at the end of the tunnel. Might even be in my place completely by next week. Yay.

♥ Lot's of things to tell. Took a sick day Wednesday and it helped. I still have a cough but it's getting better. I needed a day to sleep it all off. Thank God it was okay with my boss. The day after was kind of chaotic. Mostly thanks to "Arthur's Day", which was only celebrated for the second time now. They are trying to build a tradition because it was so successful last year. This is the day they celebrate Arthur Guinness, which means a lot of free Guinness, VIP parties all over the Temple Bar District and live concerts. The thing about the live concerts though was that they were secret. You either had to have connections or luck (Snow Patrol, Manic Street Preachers, Kelis etc). There was a huge part at the Guinness Brewery as well, which meant that I had to take a detour to get into work because the streets were close for preparations.

♥ I've never seen a city this crowded, drunk and loud. Really. We were right in the middle of it because we had to get some grocery shopping done and then the buses were stuck in traffic and in the crowds and it took us way too long to get home. Took the right bus which was going into the wrong direction, which meant walking home in the rain and being told the wrong way by an old lady (Thank God I knew the right direction). Also, I'll never complain about the prices for cosmetics in Germany ever again. Holy hell is this expensive here.

♥ Yesterday then it was "Culture Night", which meant a lot of sights, churches and museums were for free and offered special shows and exhibitions. We went after work and took a look at St. Patrick's Cathedral and it's choir. Very interesting. Pictures... some blury though because I only had my cell phone with me )

♥ Today is an off day. Which I really need. Catch up on sleep, on e-mails, watch the F1 qualifying on BBC and then finally get the next part of my Camp!verse done. Anybody willing to beta for me? It's a J2 story, not long and should be done by tomorrow. Please???

♥ Tomorrow's plans look good. The weather is nice and is supposed to stay this way, so we decided to take the Dart train along the coast and take a look at the beaches, mountains and habors. There will so be pictures taken and postcard send.

♥ Also, won't read anymore reviews than I've already done. Don't wanna spoil my own view and I think I'm quite content with it right now. Sorry that I'm not commenting on any more. Have to rewatch 6.01 anyway again, I have the feeling that I might have missed some things.

So LJ, did it again and ate my entry... ARGH

Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] joanne_c and [livejournal.com profile] spiritcrow!
Have a great day guys!

Shoot me! I want to see "The ugly Truth" and I don't even like Kathrine Heigl.
But I want to see it. I really do.

Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] hd_obsession and [livejournal.com profile] incompletework2
Post a picture in my comments of what you think describes me when you think about what/who I am.

Give no written explanation. Just an image.

Post this in your journal and see what images you get.

Edit:
I actually expected nothing else from these election but that doesn't mean I am not disappointed.
I can see this fail so much that I don't even want to talk or think about it.
This sucks so much. And only for political reasons.

The most conservative government you can get and they are headed by a woman and a gay party leader.
It might be telling much about our society.
the_milky_way: (sammy)
Today is kind of boring and I really have nothing better to do than this. It is way too hot to do anything but read or watch TV. I am not setting a foot outside today, bad enough that I have the late shift tomorrow which means I'll get the full blast of heat during work.And well [livejournal.com profile] spicy_87 asked for pictures. The first four are from the shopping spree I had with my mum on Thursday, the others are from yesterday's accidental shopping.
Accidental in the way that I only wanted to go to the postal office to sent off a package and ended up in the mall having a late Starbucks breakfast, some sales shopping and the (mis-)fortune of grabbing the last DVD set of Gilmore Girls season 7, because I couldn't resist the 10€ offer. And all that after the early, early shift at work and in the middle of the starting event of the World Athletics Championships. And again Berlin seems to have real luck with the weather when it comes to huge sports events.

Pictures this way )

Meme, because I want to write again. So please help me out here... :)

So there are spots open (not sure how many yet). Give me a pairing (hopefully from a fandom I know and possibly even write) and maybe even a prompt.
Pretty please?

***
Oh and as for the F1 things going on.
Kimi? Take the money and run.
Man, working for a team that doesn't want you must suck so much. No wonder there is no motivation anymore.

***
And why is LJ not showing some of my flist entries?
the_milky_way: (dean (reading))
Still sick but no real fever anymore. My voice is almost gone, this will be so much fun during the next days.
I have a cough now (which I usually get) and it sort of hurts.
So maybe cleaning my room after work today wasn't the wisest idea but it had to be done. I feel kind of dead right now.

Instead of working on my thesis I am writing fic which so isn't good but I couldn't concentrate on the paragraph I was writing anymore. I need to start with the [livejournal.com profile] spn_meanttobe fic if I ever want to have a chance of finishing it.
I am also working on a sequel to the last college!AU thingy. I have no idea why I am doing it, probably to keep my mind off of things. I am also procrastinating like mad which is bad.. really, really bad.
I hope I'll be able to get some things done during the next days. No idea how often I'll be online though.

Man, I can't believe Asylum is a week away already and I am a day away from seeing [livejournal.com profile] anjaliss. I also can't believe that there isn't that much time left to finish my thesis anymore.
And on Monday the posting for Big Bang will start. Where did all the time go? How do I get it back?

Won't be able to see the race tomorrow since I'll be at the airport. But after this qualifying I sort of don't get why Ferrari wants to keep Massa and diss Kimi. It was sort of of obvious who is the better driver in this year's car.
I just don't get it.

Last but not least my sibject lines will be quotes from Asylum for a while. just because I like them.
This one was Misha to me and then to some others in the customer service line around 11.00pm on Friday.

I wasn't home all that much yesterday and today. Spent a really nice day with C and J yesterday (tasty pancakes and the usually craziness), which was kind of repeated today only that I visit J at work and handed in another application and met up with C to do some shopping. So I didn't have much time to check LJ repeatedly. I am trying to catch up now.
Shopping was in so far successful that I managed to get a new SD card for my camera for half the money they want on amazon.
I got root beer. I wanted Dr. Pepper and got root beer. Oh well...
I also got a new kind of shampoo which I want to try out since Herbal changed mine too much for it to work for me. So yes, success.

***
I am so not talking about the Qualifying. nothing against Jenson Button. It's cool that he has the pole. The only thing make it better for me though is Sebastian on three.
Oh Kimi. At least Kimi is way, way in front of the McLaren. *snorts*

***
Busy rest of the weekend ahead of me.
I want to be done with the major scenes for my [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang story.
I kind of have the plan to work on my thesis during the week and to work on fanfic and such things during the weekend. So far it's working out. No idea how long I will be able to stick to it.

Wanted to work on the Sam/Dean piece as well but I am still kind of stuck there.

***
I think I had too many gummi bears.
I feel slightly sick now.

***
*waits patiently for J2 to have their wrap party tonight and to show up in LA tomorrow*
the_milky_way: (dean/rory (dreaming))
My feet hurt!!!
Ouch.
I got some more books for my thesis, got my new public transport ticket for the semester and managed not to fall asleep while trying to finish a story.
Those are my accomplishments for the day. Nothing new on the job front, and yes I am getting tired saying that (so I guess I'll stop with that until there is anything to tell).
But hey, I left the house today. I am proud of myself.

I wanted to check out some shops but I didn't feel like it today. But I want some new skirts and maybe some new tops. I am on a skirt trip these days.
I just don't have the money to buy some new things and the way things are going I might new things anyway since I am kind of losing weight in places I never knew I could lose weight.
But then again in other places it's just hopless.

****
On to even more random things:

Changed some things with my layout, changed them back, tried new layouts, changed those and in the end I am back to the beginning with new additions.
I think I might like it this way even though it's still dark.

Today made me realise that the new F1 season isn't that far away and that I kind of miss Kimi... or your know, I miss seeing Kimi on my TV screen.
The news today even did me a favour and showed some Kimi and some Fernando.

And the new Fast and the Furious movie will be out on April 2nd around here, which is pretty cool since I am planning on seeing that one.
That and Watchmen some time soon.

Speaking of movies, I kinda of made myself watch "MBV" again (mostly because I was bored and wanted some Jensen) and again I just want more MBV/F13 crossover fic.
I really, really want more Tom/Clay, because yes it works so much for me... or you know anything involving any character played by Jensen and Jared because I kind of picture them together anyway.

Oh and I am soooo looking forward to the DVD releases of MBV and F13.
MBV will have both the 2D and the 3D version and a GagReel. Me wants... NOW!

Anyway, I was going through my picture folders for good icon pics or header pics. I didn't even know I had this one in bigger ) ... and I realised how much I kind of like his hips. And his hip hasn't really changed over the years. See? ). I just wish I had this one biger.
Yes, this is just a sorry excuse to post Jared pictures.
Just felt like it.
the_milky_way: (F1 (k/h))
Just a quick drive-by entry before I am off for the day.

I am pleased with the race result. Very pleased even. And I was even awake enough to watch it live, didn't need the alarm clock because I woke up on time.
I am just trying to imagine Ferrari's and McLaren's faces if Robert snags the title in the end. I don't even know why but that thought makes me gleeful.
Anyway, Fernando was awesome and I like how Kimi's start was awesome. Sebastian got points.

***
I am feeling better, would be even better if the cough was gone.

I actually wish I had time today to write, because I have so many ideas. I feel like writing.
But I am going to be kidnapped in about 20 minutes and that for the rest of the day.
Should be fun though.
the_milky_way: (F1 (k/seb))
The only thing making that result better is that Kimi wasn't the only one with a really shitty strategy.
Yeah, okay... at least Sebastian and Heikki are there. I seriously bounced. I hope they'll do good in the race as well.
*pats Kimi*
the_milky_way: (F1 (iceman))
  • Random things: I was so very unproductive today. Spent the day in bed and watched a load of uneducational daytime TV. Bleurgh. I still feel sore but not like I am getting sick. Well, not much anyway. Slept way too long today. But that happens when I don't sleep at all during the night. I wanted to finish the request for the Fall Fandom thingy. Will do that tomorrow. I want to have them done by Monday. Done and posted.

  • Brother dear got my Russian Chocolate, which always reminds of my childhood. *sighs* I love it. Got more Kinder surprise, and I have two sheep now. Wheee.. sheep. Uhm, just ignore me.

  • I love Jensen's BuddyTV interview simply due to the fact that his voice has dropped some levels and it's hot. He is all quirky and smiles, like he was during season 1. So I guess they are all excited about the season again. Yay.


  • And now to the good news of the day: Kimi staying until 2010! I just hope he really wants it. But two more years, which I kind of like. Not to mention that I'll get more of Kimi/Seb and Kimi/Heikki and Kimi/Heikki/Seb and... okay...

  • Got a call from Lush, which means I'll have to do some homework until next Thursday. I am curious how that will turn out. Oh boy.



ETA: Now I got me, too. The userpic bug on LJ. I suddenly had an African-American lady in pink as my Jensen headdesk icon. Uhm.. okay.
Had to re-upload it and now everything is fine. But this thing has been going around and I really want to know what that is.

Happy Birthday [livejournal.com profile] leeloo3!

With the season going like that my interest in F1 is kind of going into the negative range.
*sighs* Freaking car.

***
This day could have started better.
Freaking Fandom.
Am alone.. again. I can't motivate myself to do anything. I should though, I want to get done with the fic.

[livejournal.com profile] blue_ant, I can't access google.doc right now, so I can't go over the story. I'll try later again.
Sorry.
the_milky_way: (jared (dark))
Okay since it is official now, can we stop the wanks again?
Seriously, at times like this I am embarrassed to be part of the fandom.

Why am I still watching the race? Oh right.. I won't say anything in terms of cheering because I so know I'll jinx it.
*sighs*
ETA: Yes, I just cursed out loud and my cat complained. Like hitting my desk and all...
Seriously, this is so not a good day for sports... *headdesk*

Football... Hmmm. Should I watch it and see them lose?

And dude, Suke broke Mooney's 200m breast World Record and that before the Olympics. Dude!!!
the_milky_way: (alec (wild night)
... or better in, since we stayed in and watched the GNTM finale last night. We, as in Claudia, Josi, Josi's sister and me; bitched our way thnrough the show. And really this is the only to watch a show like that.
It was really predictable and well kind of boring.
Afterwards we got somehow stuck in front of the computer looking at F1 pics and icons and well talking... It's always weird to go to bed to birds singing and the sun rising (which happens freaking early these days).

I wanted to do so much today but right now I am dizzy as hell and about to fall asleep in front of my computer. At least it isn't that hot anymore. I wanted to start going through my books but got stuck on my flist. Haven't commented or checked all of it, so I have missed anything important yell at me.
After a year of not having a working bike I finally managed to get one of the two bikes we own ready for the summer. I took it out last night to get to Josi's place and right now I am trying to decide if it was a good idea or not. My legs feel like jelly and my back hurts even more than it did before. But I feel kind of refreshed after the hike back home and a nice shower (refreshed as in my body feels like but my head is still dizzy... a lot).

Can't decide what to do now, sleep or start to study (even though I doubt I get much done today) or write (same goes here as for the studying).
I want to know how The Cape would have gone on if they had gotten another season. But 12 years after it's rather pointless to even muse about it.
More creative freedom for me I guess.

I have to get things done this weekend but Klete as well as Aaron have decided to swim, and that at different meets. *sighs* More work for me but I actually don't mind all that much, gives me a reason to take a break from studying (well besides the F1 race ion Sunday, which I am not even sure I am going to watch. I have feeling I am jinxing things these days. Meh.. ).

Oh and my cat seems to have forgiven me for leaving her alone the whole night, she is all cuddling up to me right now.

ETA: I feel like I am forgetting something. I don't even know what it might be... it could be an important date or something.. I am not sure.
the_milky_way: (pained alec)
My grandma is a little better. Not okay but better. I hope she keeps up like that. I am still worried though.
Thank you for all the comments and nice words.
I appreciate it.

**
I have been telling myself not to get involved too much again. It has been years and the last time it became so bad that I couldn't really watch races anymore without feeling sick.
That has been years ago but this season seems to be like that again. It wasn't in the beginning but right now I just want to punch people (really punch them and get all violent) and then crawl back into bed and hide.
I shouldn't let it happen again. I know it's not good. And maybe I am still a little drunk from last night and I know I am not really awake but I seriously feel like crying even though there is no real reason.

**
I wanted to write down some of my notes from last night about the Eurovision Song Contest. I just can't be bothered to do it. It was a cool night and I had a lot of fun (and maybe a bit too much to drink even though I didn't feel all that drunk in the end. My head today suggests otherwise).
Anyway, I think our little group wasn't that far away from the general opinion since Russia won on our votes as well as on the real thing. Yeah, I think they deserved it most out of the top four or five.
I actually liked Turkey and Denmark as well. Finland, too. And even France, even if it was kind of scary but fun to watch.
I don't kow if I'll write more about it, right now I want to go back to bed watch some DA or anythign else I have on DVD just to not think too much about the things I have seen today. Maybe I shouldn't watch it anymore.
I don't even know where this emotional reaction is coming from.
the_milky_way: (F1 (iceman))
Can someone please shut Nicki Lauda up? Please? I would even beg.
Seriously what the hell is wrong with that man? Yes, we all got that he hates Kimi for some reasons but can't he just say nothing then instead of stuff like that?
Doesn't really make a good impression.

Oh well, at least third and points for the standings. Not so bad. I just hope the next races are better. *pats Kimi*
And points for Fernando.. yay.
Poor Heikki though.
And did I really hear that right? Ron Dennis mentioned Kimi? Wow.

***
I am thinking about closing one of my domains and just go on with the site as a sub-domain somewhere. I really don't want to spent $9.99 for a site I know I'll probably be giving up after Beijing.
So it's a little weird after all these years but I don't feel as sad I would have maybe a year ago or something. It's okay.

***
I should start studying. It isn't much time until exams and I so should do stuff instead of reading and being lazy as hell. But I haven't gotten back into things yet. And somehow I am still on London time.
I should start with the editing as well. I already was contacted by the artist doing the art for my story. I haven't looked at the file since I closed it on May 1st.Maybe I'll start tonight. I feel like I should do something.

Icon meme again, snagged from [livejournal.com profile] blue_ant

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick four/five of your userpics.
2. Make a post and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee.

The ones [livejournal.com profile] blue_ant picked: here )
the_milky_way: (F1 (k/f missing you))
Wheeee Kimi. I squeaked after the qualifying and not only because of Kimi but because of Fernando being second as well.. oh and because of the Kimi/Nando hug afterwards.

Met up with one of my oldest school friends whom I haven't seen in years (definitely more than one year). She is a mother now and married. So Jessi, Josi and me went to visit them and say Hi to the little boy.
He is cute and okay when he is entertained. Maybe this time we'll manage to meet up more often and not wait years again.

And why the hell did no one tell me that Shah Rukh Khan will be in Germany with his new show?
Me want to go. *nods*
I am off to watch "Don" now.

Big Bang post maybe later or tomorrow.
the_milky_way: (Klete (silly))
That start was something.
Kimi! Those points are important. Two places up. But what the hell was up with the times?
And what exactly was Lewis doing there?

Would they just please shut up about how unemotional Kimi and Robert are?
It's what now, the 1000th time they mention it? It won't change just because they are complaining about it. And serioulsy is it really that important?
Made caps of Kimi, Robert, Fernando and some others (haven't checked how they turned out though).

I am so not trying to think about the Lewis/Nico interview.
Okay I had tears in my eyes, I have to admit that.

***
And some swimming because it's Klete and I love how he is doing in Stanford right now.
Apparently he has the new Speedo suit. Hmmmm....

* Coughlin, Keller Close in on American Records at Stanford Grand Prix

"... Two-time Olympian Keller closed in on his own American record of 3:44.11, clocking a pool record time of 3:45.28 in the 400m free.
Keller outdistanced the contention by more than 14 seconds to win the event and post the sixth-fastest time recorded in the world this year.

“I actually wanted to go faster,” Keller said. “I am definitely ahead of where I have been in the past. But that’s not good enough these days. In an Olympic year, it seems like magical things happen all the time.”
..."


PS, icon fits for Kimi and Klete.. Hehe
the_milky_way: (F1 (iceman))
Kimi is sick? Meeep..
Middle ear infection? Ouch...
Qualifying wasn't that great either.

I think I am not really coherent enough to comment on the Torchwood finale.
Just.. whoa...
