Long time no update. Wow. New Years was good, nay great. We've now just been in Portugal for a week, and are back. Im exploring the Capital Wastelands and beating down those scary Radscorpians and Lisa is going to making frappachinos and when we cross paths we're visiting with Scully and Mulder and the gang from Cheers. What else can you do when its so nasty and cold outside?

So, its the 31st of December once again. Time literally doesnt stand still, and sometimes I forget that.
Christmas was great, despite being sick with a sinus infection or something like that, everyone got what they wished for, no family blow-ups, great food. Very good christmas in deed.
Now im packing up a few things and getting ready for tonight; friends of ours (a couple) invited us over for a fancy new years with awesome drinks and food and games...(including WII!) and im really looking forward to it (even though i normally HATE new years)
Well, I hope you all had a great Christmas and I hope the same for your New Year celebrations.

The weekend was a super lazy one. My mom came to visit, since she was in the area on business. We honestly were the 2 laziest people while she was here : it was awesome. We just hung out and played wii, (Cubello) and watched movies (Sweeny Todd) and watched TV (the daily show) and showed eachother things on youtube. It felt good to forget about stuff for a while.
And we ate really good. Since everyday I cooked at least once with my Nintendo DS cookbook : yummy! So it was a very good weekend.
So far this week has been strange. From my mom staying on monday, until now, I havent really found much time for myself. Sounds like a small complaint, but this can make me really frustrated and short tempered. Slap on a few annoyances at work - and you got yourself the feeling i got right now : only a few more days and then its homefree....for the weekend....
Good news is, that Markus and Marie have their Wii finally hooked up to the internet so we can play mario kart against eachother, which is always fun.

Tuesday after my Adults english lesson, I packed up and headed out to band practice. Alpha. Brand new, thought it would be strange, but it turned out pretty good. hope i can remember everything when we meet next time. Didnt get home until 230am and had to walk the whole way. Arg. Then, Wednesday was a holiday here, so we went to the Zoo with friends - didnt really get a chance to eat anything and was VERY hungry. The only thing that saved me was stopping by at Starbucks just before. The zoo is always nice, getting some pictures is always good - but this time my friend took better ones then me, so i was bummed out. Afterwards we went into the city, first to Burger King, then to a döner shop (and it was really really good - maybe because i was so hungry) and then to see QUANTUM OF SOLACE at 20.30. After almost 1hour of commercials the movie finally started. It was in english, but everytime someone spoke a foreign lanaguage it was with German subtitles, how mental is that? Afterwards we both went stright home, and im sure stright to bed. It wasnt much sleep though, i was so tired from the zoo, and had to be at my private lesson today at 7.30. ARG. i need sleep. I slept a little more this morning, but it didnt help much, this coffee isnt helping either. ARG. tonight I need my FRÜHE!

Today started well, while looking for something else, I actually found my favourite grey touque. Very cool, since Im always wanting to wear it and I thought it was lost.
Then we made breakfast, which we were going to eat in bed while watching an x-files episode or two, when I noticed : no sugar. So I called Glori, who lives two floors under us, then since i woke her up, I bribed her to come up with food - except that she had to PAY for the food with sugar.
So all of us, sat on the bed and watched the funniest x-files episode ive seen so far (in season 3, withe the roaches). After we headed over to Seeblick across the street where salo & ryan were having a late breakfast. After that, we kinda had band practice, and maybe thought of someone who could finally become the SINGER in the band, and now we're getting ready to head over to watch a show tonight...
...its going to be a long night, so I hope it doesnt suck....please dont let it suck.

Having a strange day today. I feel like I never woke up. Took the time to upload some stuff to myspace and other places, update & erase. Watched "Im not there" found is strange and despressing. Too bad, I was looking for something else.
I finally got my KORG DS-10 sent to me. So im playing all day. When Im not surfing (while the battery is recharging again in the DS.)
Things are good. Life is good.

Had the strangest dream yesterday. About, well, a tidal wave...not wanting to cook tomatoes for a wedding...asian squatters in a house i was supposed to be house sitting...and a cowboy in white, who, while i sat eating a mouth full of cinnamon, he began to glow under he white garments and sang a haunting tune....
none of that was a lie....now im trying to concentrate and practice a bit before the party that im playing at tonight with ashen fall...except im instead writing this crap on myspace....procrastination at its best.

Im having one of those strange nights. Where I feel over-energized - there are all these ideas wanting to burst out, but I cant harvest them. Cant control them. So I walk back and forth....play a little xbox. Im out of it.
Wed. 27th August 2008 12:48
Its all official now. Things have been signed. Names have been changed : im married. Now that the weekend is over, 'the dark knight' watched, the zoo visited, the games convention bid adieu to....now after the family has left, there is a strange quietness left behind. And an urge to restructure, rebuild, redesign. But most likely, things will remain the same. My time now divided between a language school for young learners where I earn the rent and my wii (usually) where I divide my attention between SSBB and Mariokart. Ahhhhh, for the days when there was nothing else. These days are also not bad, and so I am content. More then content. I am happy.

Married life is pretty easy actually.....its not all serious now.
Lately ive been pretty busy working at a language school for small children, had a show with Ashen Fall (very small one, but got to play my new songs....)
The free minutes I use to play HARVEST MOON, HALO, WII SPORTS, ZELDA DS....or watch GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND ALONE COMPLEX, COYOTE RAGTIME SHOW or SOPRANOS - or Ill even read, imagine that - VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER, THE GLASS BOOKS OF THE DREAM EATERS or THE MAGIC OF RECLUCE - or Ill listen to the audio book from STEPHEN KING - THE CELL....yeah I got a few things to fill up the last few days of being 24....ill have been a quarter century on this earth.
Anyways im once again tired and sleepy. So wont be online much. Ill spend it rather lazing around and watching stuff. bye.

Back home, in the new year, came home to a perfectly clean and well-stocked apartment! Thanks Anne and Ivan!! Left my camera bag on the train back from the airport - thankfully it was not destroyed as a "terrorist bomb" or something, and I got all my camera stuff back - yikes! Glad to be home - still getting used to it.
