Lazy update, lazy person.

I feel lazy today.

Spent the day with my parents, downtown. We didn't go on any rides, but we did ... "have some coffee", right in the middle of all the chaos.
All I could hear people talking about was "N.E.R.D cancelled the show" this, and "I got into uni" that...
Sigh.
Perhaps you didn't know?
I didn't get in.
I didn't...

So, of course I was delighted when an ex class mate came up to me to tell me that she'd gotten into law school! =D
No, I'm not being a sarcastic a-hole. I was actually really happy for her.

.... Maybe I was a little bit jealous.. But that's a whole other thing....

Oh, and I don't give a crap about N.E.R.D. Didn't even know they still existed. *smile*

Other than that, I just want to say to the people who kept staring at me today:
There is nothing wrong with holding your father's hand when you're 18.
*laughs*
Maybe it's a bit weird. But I like weird.
I saw this little girl walking down the street, holding her dad's hand in a firm grip.. And I thought: "You go girl" for no reason what so ever.

Oh, people might have been staring because of my red, super hot, suspenders too.
I know. I'm awesome.
I bought them over three years ago, right after I'd seen Kurosagi, for the first time.
I wanted to look like Yamapi, but I didn't. I still don't
Doesn't change the fact that I'm awesome though.

Ok, enough of this.
I told you I was feeling lazy.
Time for TV and sleep.


Because I really.. just don't know.



Love the make up at least.

I was watching this minor make up guru youtuber's videos, who was really in to the whole Visual Kei thing. I must've seriously watched like an hour's worth of videos.
And it wasn't til' I stopped that I realized that that might've been a bit strange for me.

Maria says it's not strange though, seeing as I love strong, bright colours, and sharp make up.
Which is true.

So, thank you to my bunny pop Ryo-chan for knowing me when I ... don't.

I am not a Visual Kei kind of person.. In fact, I have some very strong arguments against it. (Weird sentence. Arguments against music? But I'm serious non the less..... I have something against the voices of the singers. OK?!!)
But if I had a lot of money, and if I had a lot of time to get ready in the morning, and if I had the balls for it....
I would totally rock that style.


See? Gorgeous. And it's pretty mild.

The lenses are especially cool. (hehe)

 

This was random.

Probably because I'm random.

 

 

I have to sleep. Otherwise my whole 30-hour-or-so-no-sleep plan.. would be useless.

But a little bit of a: sorry to Billy, because I didn't have time today.

And a little bit of a: goodnight to the rest of you.


Circle lenses on the way... oh, and some paid-for mindless spinning.

Hola.

Today I went to the carnival downtown.
Did a lot of spinning, did a lot of ... hiding under a bridge...
Yeah, the weather wasn't great.

But other than that, I had a pretty great time.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go to the annual music festival, called Yran, this year. I usually don't go anyway, but this year it was about money, and other years it's most often about me not liking the music.
Why don't you just get a job? You ask. (douche)

Well, at the moment, I don't even have a finished resume.
I'm working on it though.
The hard part is the personal letter, since it's supposed to be different depending on where you want to go. And.. I haven't really decided that yet.

But, back to what I was talking about:
Carnival!

I had two friends with me, and one of them is afraid of carnival rides...
.... So instead of being nice and saying: ok, that's fine,
we let her hold our bags as we tried out one of the less scary rides.
Cuz that's how we roll. Evil. (And sissy)

--------------

I ordered my circle lenses yesterday, so I'll probably get them in two or three weeks.
THAT'S A REALLY LONG TIME!

Yes, I know.
But I ordered them from Malaysia, so it makes sense.

Here's a preview:

 

 

The Dolly Eye Violet obviously doesn't look natural. I was planning on buying the more natural looking ones, either from the Angel- or Nudy series. But then I heard that the blue from my eyes could possibly shine through (they're originally made for asians, after all... *bitter*) so I thought I should get the smaller, stronger ones. (Hence: the Dolly Eye Violets)

Later, I heard that the Nudy series was perfect for caucasians though. So now I'm just pissed =P

But I shouldn't be. Because really, purple eyes just don't look natural. Period.

 

 

 

The CK 105 lenses are really popular. For asian women, the effect is: bigger, cuter and more dolly-like. For me I think it will be a little bit different, seeing as my eyes are blue. In the middle you will see a streak of blue, and then the rest will be black. The contrast is obviously more obvious. But I think it'll look great.

What I'm a little bit worried about though, is whether or not you will see the blue at all! *laughs*
Because my pupils are ALWAYS huge. I really hope that won't affect the look too much.

I don't want black, serial killer eyes. =P

 

Anyway, this post was very girly. I think.

Cars!

 

There, now it's unisex.

 

Although, I think more guys should try out the circle lenses. *throwing out some hints*


Ramble RAMBLE!

Well, it's almost 9 pm folks,
which means, that if my project is going to have any value at all.. It's time for me to go sleep.

But first! Let me tell you how many times I almost fell asleep, but didn't.


Probably about 100 times.


I once read this book.. Oh no wait.. My sister once read this book (which is amazing in itself) about a geisha who had to work every single night of her life.
She was so tired sometimes, that she automatically fell asleep. No one noticed anything though.
Why? Because she kept her position (standing) and never actually closed her eyes.

I was very close to experiencing something similar today.

30 hours I've been awake....
I'm dumb.


.....
No. I'm not dumb.
Not yet anyway.
We'll see how this turns out in the morning.



Remember folks: drastic measures is always the right answer.


Goodnight.


*too tired... to insert.... picture....of ... any.... kind.......*



Amcakes!!!!!

Oh, and I made american pancakes yesterday.

... At least I think it was yesterday. It's all kinda hazy.

They were really good though.
I've made amcakes (just made that up. that's how super awesome I am) three times before,
but I think I'm getting better.
Because this time, they were actually edible.

It might be because I changed recipes though.

Make em like this:

~

2 ½ dl flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 ½ dl milk
2 tablespoons melted butter + butter for frying the pancakes
1 egg

~


The last time I made american pancakes, I made them out of a more genuine recipe, which meant adding lots and lots of flour, sugar and salt.
Made my tummy angry =(

So what have we learned today?
Don't do what americans tell you to do. Even when it's about their food.

*cheers*



jk.


Now I shall watch Dexter, until it's late enough for me to go downtown and talk to the people at the bank.
I need me some .. new stuff.. cuz I'm an adult and shiz.
Bet you didn't know that.
Yeah...


Oh god.
The weirdness is starting.
I need sleep.

Guten morgen.

Ok, so it's 07:35 am, and I'm still awake.
Yes, I am implying that I never went to bed in the first place.

Sleeping is for sissies.

No,
I'd give anything to get to take a nap.
But the thing is: I woke up at 3 pm yesterday.

In order to stop these bad habits, I will have to forfeit sleep today.
This technique has never actually... w.o.r.k.e.d..
But who knows, it might this time.

What to do now....?


I've been browsing around for fun colored lenses all night.
I think instead of buying a Buck T-shirt, I shall buy colored lenses.
What color?

*snicker*

You shall see.
Oh, you shall see.

PROJECT STAY AWAKE HAS STARTED!!!

Nostalgia Music

Hello world.
It's almost time for me to go to bed. But first I thought I'd share some stuff with you.

I'm still wearing my baseball cap, even though I'm not watching baseball, and there's no sun on my face.. I guess I just got used to it. I usually don't like hats.
Especially the ones that itch. (everyone knows what I'm talking about)

Anyway, this evening I felt this amazing urge to listen to old music. (not old like.. music from the 50s, but old like.. music from my childhood) So I went and searched for my top five nostalgia songs.
One of them is a Spice Girls song, yes.




Onitsuka Chihiro - Infection
(Maybe I should mention that this is still my favourite song of all time.)




Spice Girls - Viva Forever




Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal




Five - Inspector Gadget
(What?)




The Beatles - All you need is love



I remember seeing this really fun cartoon music video to All you need is love. I don't remember what that was.. Was it the official music video?
Maybe not.

I mention this many times, but.. My memory has never been great.


Goodnight everyone.
Except for those of you who don't sleep.

Small... HUGE sidenote.

 

 

This is the book that I got in my package.

 

I've been wanting to read this book for... e.v.e.r! (No. Since last year. But I'm still a teenager! I have two years left to exaggerate and act like a complete moron! >.<... and then it's all over.)

 

Dylan on WeReadBooks reviewed this book in the beginning of this month.

I spazzed like a crazy person, because I was still waiting to get it. AND NOW I'VE GOT IT!

I won't be able to do a video review of it,

but expect a review right here, as soon as I finish reading it.

 

 

This is going to be..... epic. *dramatic music*

 


I am an earth...woman.


I never give up


No, that's a lie.
I gave up on playing PWI a couple of days ago. If you're one of the few people who still play it,
how do you get past lvl 20? (über boring)

Anyway. Jade dynasty is made by the same people. I'm gonna try that.
*laughs*


............


Wow. This post was interesting.
Very informative.

I should go pro.

 

Oh, and to Billy, who said that "my song" was crappy.

There are several songs! And none of them are "crappy", thank you very much.

 

Try listening to Earthman, by Poets & Pornstars.

It's what you would call art, Billeh.

----Lesson over----


~


"We got bombs and we got guns
We got everything you could want
Under a sun

We got pleasure
We got pain
We got people here who think
That they're the same

We're the fallen in the war
We're the bullets and the law
We're the kiss of love that heals it all

And it's so pretty down here
It might move you to tears...

I am an Earthman
I was born to the out of hand
The Poets and the Pornstars
The Lovers and the Die-Hards

And I never met a madman
Who didn't have a cause
And I never met a pervert
Who didn't have a broken heart

And I am...an Earthman. "

GOOD morning, everyone! (emphasis on the good, everyone got that right?)

Well, yesterday was a weird day.
I literally sat all day switching headers, until I almost passed out.
And I don't know what's worse:
1) Passing out after working on your blog for almost 12 hours, or 2) Waking up the next day and hating the header once again.
*frustrated*

I don't know what's wrong with me. I really don't.

Anyway. On to more important things!!



I got a package in the mail today from a dear friend =3 It was supposed to be a graduation present, I think. But seeing as I got it in July, I'm just gonna call it The Awesome Package of Awesomeness. (and people say I have a small vocabulary... humpfh)
In the package was:

-A bracelet (at least I think so)
-A necklace (of peace)
-A Simpson's comic (that I can't bring myself to open T_T)
-A calendar (of peace AND love)
-A book
-Two baseball caps (both awesome)
-A blue teddy bear named Smurf (currently resting under my sheets)
-A note

I can't even begin to explain how happy I was when I got it,
even though I had to sign for it in my pyjama shorts.
The delivery man was kind enough to not mention my lack of clothing and f-ed up hair.
Thank you kind delivery man.
I could sense the awkwardness though.
I'm sure he could too. He kept looking at everything else around us.


.....Do I take that as an insult? Or do I just leave it be?......
I'm going with number two.


Thank you so much baseball star.

I won't ever forget this.



Maxie right now:



*dancing to One in a Million*
....because I can't get it out of my head.

Sleepless... WHAT THE BUCK!

Ok. Let me tell the story of why I went to bed at 6 am last night.



Around 1 am I was doing my last rounds, ("rounds", like I'm a nurse)
checking the blog, twitter, facebook, all those stupid sites where nothing interesting ever happens ANYWAY. (pent-up anger?)
And then I checked youtube, and saw that Michael Buckley had uploaded a new vlog.
I couldn't NOT watch it. And to my surprise it was just him saying: I'm live tonight on Blog TV! Come watch me. It's on at 10 pm EST.

I said: Yes! I've never seen Michael Buckley live!

If you don't know who Michael Buckley is, check the WhatTheBuckShow on Youtube, and also his personal vlog-channel peron75. He is the funniest, greatest, loveliest, kindest, most fabulous man alive.
I love him to death. (Which is the creepiest thing a person can say. Why is that an accepted phrase?)

But then I realised that I don't live in America. So 10 pm EST for me would be... 4 am.
That meant I'd have to wait 3 hours, and then stick around for an hour longer.... So technically, I wouldn't be in bed before 6 am. (Add an hour for being silly in the bathroom. Music and toothpaste: It takes time)

But thankfully, the Michael Buckley community is wonderful. I don't regret screwing up my sleeping patterns.
It's really an awesome experience. You comment, you laugh, you watch Buck being funny, you laugh again, you make friends, you win an autograph (I wish) and then you go to bed happy.


I think that feeling of being connected with so many people is why I often get involved with fandoms.

(----When I love something, I turn into Sherlock-frickin-Holmes or something... Or no. That was a terrible analogy.
I don't know much about much. But the things I do know.. I know better than anyone.
Does that make sense...?---)

Anyway, I'm sure a lot of people know what I'm talking about. Why do you go to concerts?
Is it just to see the band/artist live? Or is it also to feel that connection with thousands and thousands of strangers?
Huh?
Huh?

Well.


Have a great evening everyone.



WHAT THE BUCK




There's a huge elephant in the room, and I feel like shooting it.

I think Swedes all over are thinking the same thing right now.

Summer's kinda over.

When it starts getting dark outside at night, you get this feeling that summer vacation is over. It doesn't even matter if it's 19 degrees outside. It's fall right now, as far as I'm concerned.
....
That is such a depressing thing to say.
But it's also a very swedish thing to say.

Let's all get prepared for the dark ages, shall we?

--After-- Inception. The Review.

Right off the bat, let's give this movie a 5/5.

 

I loved every minute of if. And that's saying a lot, because this movie is 2,5 hours long. (And it was expensive)

When I saw the trailer, I thought that moments like when the city bent over itself would be the highlights, but no! This movie is way too good to say that it depended on special effects.

Sure, without them, it wouldn't have been as good. But let's agree that the special effects weren't the only reason you stepped out of the theater thinking: Wow! My mind is blown.

 

When I saw the first review of Inception, there was this old man who said that it was too pretentious for his taste. And at the time, I thought he was being old and whiny.

But now, I can't say I don't understand what he's saying.

Yes, this means I do have some problems with the movie. But not big enough to change my rating.

 

The ending was what bored me. I'd heard so much about how people were shocked, and how it blew them away and all that... But come on.. I saw it coming from miles away.
That sort of felt like the obvious ending to a movie like this. It was so obvious, in fact, that I was sort of hoping Nolan would come up with something else.

But no. He went with it.

The ending, and the complicated idea behing the storyline, are probably the two reasons why that old man called it pretentious. It was like Nolan made the movie, thinking first that he wanted to make something complex enough to make people pay a lot of cash to see it over and over again, and then figured out the storyline.

EDIT: What I'd really want is to sit down and talk to Nolan about this film, and about what details in the film led up to that ending. I want to know for sure that he didn't just put that in there to confuse us, but that he in fact planted small hints throughout the movie (that I missed) that explains the ending.

I'm sure a lot of people would like a one-on-one session with Nolan though. *laughs*



I don't really care though. Because like I said, I enjoyed every single moment.

This movie is so well made. I hate that people compare it to The Dark Knight. Because 1) I don't even like that movie. And 2) This has nothing to do with Batman. Shut up. Let the man make other movies.

 

I loved all the actors. Not just Leonardo (even though I do think that people don't mention him as much as they should when talking about this movie), but all of them.

I usually don't like Ken Watanabe, because he's in every movie that requires an older asian man and I was getting bored with his performances. But he was pretty interesting in this one.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has been a favourite of mine since the first time I saw Mysterious Skin (If you haven't seen this movie, jesus christ, what are you waiting for?) And when he rocked this role completely, I wasn't surprised.

Ellen Page isn't just cute. She's talented.

And then someone whose name I had to google. Tom Hardy. When he was in the scene, he was always the best one there.

 

So there you go.

If you haven't seen Inception yet, because you want to see Eclipse or.. Toystory 3.. or.. (god forbid) Shrek.. Get a grip. This is the movie of the year.

 

*yawn*

 

I don't have any plans for the evening. So I guess I'll just eat some ice cream and watch the fourth season of Prison Break.

Or maybe I should eat some food. I just realised I haven't done that today.....

 


--before-- Inception

It's time for me to find my shoes and step out the door.
Yes. It's movie time.

I've heard a lot about Inception. For example: that it's very complicated.
What a blow to my ego if I step out of the theater thinking: I didn't understand any of that.
But even if that happens, and someone asks me what I thought about it,
I'll say something like: I thought it had a very interesting underlying message about how religion can destroy empires, but also build them. (/random)
And when they look at me like I should be in a mental institution,
I'll say: I've heard that this movie is very different for everyone, depending on how you perceive it.... Shut up.


Some dog is dying outside my window.

*goes to check*

No.

----------

Well. I guess it's time to go.
Have a nice evening.


Lol. The hair!


Dexter season 5 trailer is OUT! *tears of joy*


Amazing news, people!


The trailer for Dexter Season 5 has just been released.
It was shown to the good people at Comic Con not too long ago,
and now, even us poor Comic Con-less folk get to see it.


 

Ok, people.

What do we think?

I think this will be the best season yet.

 

Some say this might be the last season. But I don't understand why they would end such an amazing show after just 5 seasons. Even crap like Desperate Housewives gets more screen time than that. (No offence to all you DH-fans... (probably 80% of all women))

If I were in charge, Dexter would never stop airing.

 

But I'm not .. Stop cheering. Jeez.


 


A little bit of .... rock? Ugh, labels frustrate me.

I've been listening to Evanescence a lot recently. Remember them?
Yeah. They're the band that exploded into the mainstream world with an AMAZING album in 2003,
then disappeared for three years, released an ok album in 2006,
and then disappeared again.

I looked them up, and it seems like they're going to release a new album this fall.

What is with their release rhythm?
They should get some japanesey in them and release at least three albums per year. *laughs*

But really. In all seriousness, Evanescence is a great band.
I remember forcing my dad to buy "Fallen" for me when it came out.
I was so excited and listened to it non-stop for weeks, months, years!! (on my cd-player (*nostalgia*))

That slow song "Hello" is still one of my favourite songs of all time.
I would sing it in our car when no one else was around, thinking no one could hear my off-key voice. (Later in life I've realised that people CAN hear things through car doors. Damn it)

------------

Amy Lee has always been one purrdy lady.



------------

Tomorrow is the day I go out with my brother and his mysterious friend(s).
That's right. I don't even know how many he invited.
Jesus Christ, what have I gotten myself into?


Dear Maxie,
remember to shower tomorrow. Because you were way too lazy to do it today.



Evanescence - Hello

Love it.

The Video.

Guess I shouldn't comment on a song without posting the music video.

Sing along with me!~
One in a mirriooooon!

 

 


Slight commentary on what is japanese and what is not.

God, I can't sleep again.
This is turning into a problem.


Thank you Spilledmilk25 for posting the lyrics to Yamapi's new single, One in a million.
But when I read them, I started laughing.
Not because I don't like the song.
But because I couldn't decide what language this song is in.

-------------

Itsukara kimi no kisu wa naozari?

Why even bother putting in the japanese? That's how I feel.
When writing this song, they must've thrown away all logic, because I can't make it make sense, no matter how I twist and turn it.

English is a beautiful language, and I know for a fact that Pi-chan is trying really hard to improve his english.
But this has gone too far.
I liked it when they would throw in random english words here and there, because that's normal. Everyone does that! No matter where they come from. But when it's the other way around, and you're throwing in japanese words here and there (as a japanese person) you have to realise that you're being ridiculous.
I say: Sing the song in english, or sing the song in japanese. (a bit of engrish is always ok, of course)


Anyway. I'm making this out to be a big deal.
It's not.


Go listen to the song. Let's support his solo career. I don't care that you think he should focus on NEWS activities. He's a grown man and he wants to do his own thing. Now shut your mouth and go buy the single.


That was harsh, M.


I know.


*smiles*


My feet hurt. So I've decided to not move for a few hours.

In the world of online gaming, I am just as shy as I am in real life.
Or maybe that's the wrong word...
I am just as secluded as I am in real life x'D
Don't ask me to join your squad and/or guild. I really would rather fight these simpletons on my own, even though it might take hours. Shoo!
The real reason I really don't want to join others though, is that I've realized that a lot of teenaged boys go around flirting with people in MMORPGs. How retarded can you get?
I could be 12, I could be 40.
Just because I play a girl doesn't mean I am one.
(Question: Why do a lot of guys play girl characters?)

Oh dear. I'm ranting yet again.


But here's an update:
My friend decided that she wasn't going to be able to go with me to see Inception. So I said, to heck with it, I'll go with my brother and his friends.
Yes, I really really really want to see this film.
Can you tell?


Who knows what kind of people my brother hang out with?


Just kidding of course.




......
No I'm not.

Let's swim duckies.

I've been struggling with insomnia for a while now,
but yesterday, I finally got some sleep.

This is what happened yesterday:

I woke up around nine, after sleeping for only five hours or so.
It's not like I went to bed super late. It just literally took me four hours to fall asleep.
Moving on.

Me and a friend took our bikes and went to the poolhouse to have some silly childish fun.
And we definitely got some.
It's been so long since I've splashed around in a pool, I think I actually shrunk and lost 10 years or so in that water. I couldn't stop laughing, and the pool guards kept looking at us like we were high and obnoxious and therefore had to be removed...
So we ran to the water slides before they could catch us.
Now, sure, we got some bruises from those slides. I'm pretty sure I banged up my friend pretty bad when I fell off of our ring and onto her head while still plummeting downwards. Some kids saw my boobs, and then I almost drowned. But who cares? It was fun.

The weather wasn't great. So we couldn't go outside.
But now that I think about it, that was probably a good thing. Everytime we went outside to check the temperature, 10 or so old guys kept zooming in on our derriers.

One thing I didn't miss about the whole.. pool experience, was the public showers.
I had completely forgotten how awkward that can be.
Naked people everywhere.
And somewhere in the middle of that, a mother came in with her 12(or so)-year-old son.
I get why small boys are allowed into the "girls' shower room", but teenagers? No.
I packed up my stuff and ran. That mother deserves some jail time.

I'm gonna skip the rest of the day, cuz it just wasn't as interesting.
But by the time I'd brushed my teeth and put on some kind of nightie, I was out.


And today I saw Kick-Ass for the first time.
Hell yeah.

A trip to the store

My dad came into my room as I was stubbornly trying to fall asleep again after lunch. He asked me if I was willing to make a cake for my mom's birthday (tomorrow), and I said.. yes. On one condition. I had to come with him to buy the groceries.

So we headed out, father and daughter, on our bikes, passing norwegians that were returning home on the way. Dad looked pleased.
Not because he had something against them, per se. But because he had something against them blocking the lines at the supermarket.

Somewhere along the way I looked down at my denim mini short shorts and see-through pantyhosed legs and then down at my conversed feet pedaling away slowly and crookedly, and I thought to myself: Why do I have to be the person that dresses up to go to the store with my dad? Why can't I be the person that dresses up to go out with my friends, and//or boyfriend?
But seeing the weird contrast between my black painted nails and my reddened pale skin, I decided I'm not the emo type of person to moan about how disappointing life turned out to be like this summer.

When we got there, the first thing I saw was donuts. But weirdly, my stomach said: No. I don't even feel like pretending those would taste good.
Maybe because I actually got off my ass and ran 2km today. (I was so nauseous afterwards, I collapsed in the shower. Much like last summer) Or maybe because I don't react too good to sweets now a days.
It's kinda like how a vampire views food. It may look good, but it wouldn't do much for me.

But I DID see a bottle of that weird blue soda that stores stopped selling ages ago, because of the alleged health risk.
I looked up at my father with puppy dog eyes, pleading him to please buy it for me.
He said: Isn't Pepsi good enough?
I said: But dad... It's blue.


I finally got what I wanted, plus a girly magazine, because my father seems to feel sorry for me.
It was about getting the perfect summer body, hot guys and other clichéd girl topics.. oh, and I got bronze powder for free.
But I'm pretty sure you have to have at least some sort of tan to be able to pull that look off.
I kind of miss the days when Ultimate Spiderman was the obvious choice on the magazine rack.
But then again, I've already got the entire series on my computer.
It's not like I've stopped being a nerd or a kid.. or both. I'm just more efficient now.

On the way home, though, the nice trip turned into a nightmare.

I decided we were going to take a short-cut through the woods, and daddy agreed, since the trees would protect us from the rain.
But what we didn't expect was a huge black swarm of flies attacking us head-on.
The cluster of yuck was so compact I had to cover my mouth and nose to keep from inhaling them, which in turn stopped my breathing.
By the time we came out of that hell, our bodies were covered in bold insects.
I'd heard of weird stalkers, flashers, robbers, freaky animals.. all taking up residence among trees.. But never had I been so afraid of the woods before.

I really do hate insects.

A day in photos

I'm creative at times... I think.
At least I'm known for having a bastardly good eye for details, which pretty much only comes in handy when figuring out how books or movies are going to end. Or just anything regarding books and//or movies. (A narrow skill, I agree)
Like, for example:

1. A brother of a friend showed this picture of his flatscreen TV, to show how awesome it was (obviously a douche?). On the screen, though, was a picture of a helicopter above a green forest.
I asked: oh, are you watching Tropic Thunder?
He asked: how the f*** did you know that?
I said, matter-of-factly: I recognized that shade of green.

2. When watching Remember Me, a movie with Robert Pattinson that ends quite strangely.. I figured out the exact ending 10 minutes before it happened, just because they were watching American Pie in the theatre. (if you haven't seen the movie though, this example makes no sense)

Anyway, I got off topic.. As per usual.


This was my day today
















18 is the new 78

Today I stepped out of my house and felt a breeze on my face.
It was nice.
A bit brief though.

Because the sun came down and banished the wind, scorching my feet in the process.
Doesn't change the fact that today was a good day though.
I was in such a good mood, I figured I could walk home.
After about 6 of those 8 km, my hips started breaking down. This was the moment when I realised I was experiencing the so called Old man boo boo. I couldn't walk without stopping every five minutes for damage control.
I refused to stop though... The 60 norwegian and spanish young boys rushing towards me (not really towards me, but towards the bus stop behind me.. scary either way) was my motivation. I needed to get away! Otherwise people would see me limping.
I pushed on.

That is why I couldn't move for about 5 minutes when I came home.

Oh, and btw. I'm 18. Bet you thought I was 78. Nice to meet you.
I need my beauty sleep now.

Deuces.

"Absolutely nothing."

I've decided to be sweet this time.
Because really, you need some sweet time in your life.

My sweet time usually consists of lots and lots of soda, lots of TV and very little sleep.
What do I mean by this?
Absolutely nothing.

But even though I did say I was gonna be sweet today. I will say this: sometimes.. Things get too sweet. And that makes me wanna get bitter.
For example: Too much fika (see an earlier post) (EDIT: earlier post doesn't exist anymore x'D. Fika= eating something sweet, like a cake of something, or just drinking a little coffee or soda, while bullshitting non-stop with friends and/or family) makes Maxie a dull.. girl.
No, it just makes me stuffy and moody.
I shouldn't have been born in Sweden, I've realized too late.

--------------
If there's one thing my friends know about me, it's that I don't need alcohol to get drunk.
My normal mode is beyond drunk.
That is why I'm a writer.
So basically, I don't need anything to be sweet. I just need a little bit of motivation.
Motivation, which I have now received, thanks to my little trip to the store today.

Noise. Cramped space. Lots and lots of people....
I mean sure, most of them were norwegian. But they were there! For realz.
It was my return to society. I feel human again.


Quote of the minute (yes I just said that): A culture is only as great as its dreams, and its dreams are dreamed by artists.

Can you believe a madman like L. Ron Hubbard said that?
That proves the fact that if you ramble on for years and years about nothing.. you're at least gonna squeeze out one or two awesome quotes. That's what I'm aiming for.


Some explanations...

I've been the owner of many blogs, all of which I have deleted (for numerous reasons).
This is the first english blog I've had on a swedish site,
and I know that the whole concept of writing in english on blogg.se is strange,
but the thing is:

Blogg.se is the best blogging site I've ever been a member of.

And I really want to write in english, seeing as a lot of my potential readers are foreign.
I'm not the alienating type~

*laughs*

SO!
This blog will seem very strange to a lot of people. But... well.. that's kind of the whole point of my blogs anyway.

Stay tuned.

....
Deuces.
