Time to update!

So after not having blogged in almost a month I decided it was time to pull my finger out and write something, so here I am.

Today I spent almost 5 hours (if not longer) watching one single documentary, pausing every few seconds to scribble down the next fact to be able to write my Extended Essay. I used almost 50 post-it notes in various colours (for each different subject) and now my thumb is killing me, but on the other hand, it's a good days work!

I also rang a man about a horse and have finally sorted out a summer job (or just a general job). I have my interview on friday at 5pm in a dog park on the other side of Vara. Don't ask. but hopefully I'll be able to work some times during the school term too, so I should be able to save a little money towards whatever my latest MUST HAVE item is (currently Magic: The Gathering cards :P

Other than that, not much to report.

Royal Wedding moaning

Every single person who is complaining about the royal wedding costing so much when we could use it for better things (like third world countries, starving children etc) can stick it, misery guts. It makes me really angry to see some of the comments people are leaving on FB.

Amount of money spent annually on cosmetics in the United States: $8 billion. Amount of money spent each year on pet food in Europe and the United States: $17 billion.
-Carlos Dourado

Do YOU own a pet? Do YOU use make up (or any partners you may have)? So not only are you a misery guts, you're a hypocrite. Thanks for clearing that up!
Yes, the money could have been used for better things but did you say the same thing when Diana was married? What about when she died? Her funeral must have cost a lot. How about the Olympic Stadium that's currently being built?

They very well could of aired the wedding on a pay per view channel and donated the money to a charity.
-Vanessa Avalos

The wedding should have been pay-to-view with money going to charity? I bet you will watch the olympics. And I bet you'd watch the World cup, or Eurovision. Oh no wait, you're AMERICAN. That must suck, having such sour grapes over not really being able to join in the celebrations. Naww. How about we make it pay-per-view next time you get a new president, shall we? That'd make it sort of fair, apart fromt he fact a royal wedding only happens once every, shall we say, 20-30 years or so?

A marriage nowadays is a contract between the man and woman coming together with the controllers and the illusion the state. The illusion must be maintained otherwise the king is seen to be naked.
-John Mathieson

I think this is bloody disgraceful. Diana only met Charles about 10 times before they got married. Kate and Wills have been together for almost a decade. I bet you celebrated Dianas wedding. I bet one day you'll get married to your partner, is that only a "Contract between the man and woman together with the controllers and the state"? I'll know to not bother congratulating you then.

To be honest, if you all care so much about the New World Order or starving children, you'd all be giving every spare penny to the charities, or even better, working out there yourself. Anyone can sit at home in their nice comfy chair sat on their new computer with 3G internet and post on Facebook that the Royal wedding is a disgrace, but to be honest you're all as bad as eachother, you're all hypocrites and you're all misery guts.
The royal wedding was not about publicity nor making money, nor was it two people making a contract with "The controllers" whoever these controllers may be, it was about a man and a woman, who loved eachother and had been together for almost a decade, committing themselves to a lifetime with each other and the only reason it was so big was because one of them happened to be the son of the future king of England. I bet you anything that to Kathrine, William is not "Prince William of Wales" but just Wills, and that's all there is to it.

The Day After

Yesterday was mums birthday. I made a chicken pie and a rich Death By Chocolate cake, both of which tasted fantastic (if I do say so myself), but this morning I feel terrible. I don't know if it was the food or the tiny bit of wine I drank but my stomach hurts so much!
Just as he left, Jens said he felt the same so I don't think it's a bug (unless it's something I caught from him last night) so we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

No Ordinary Family..

..Is so good!
I have just finished episode 12 (Season 1) and just can't stop.
The story revolves around a family who's plane crashlands in a lake in a Brazilian jungle and who, upon returning home, find out they have developed superpowers. Each episode is another slice of their life as they try to keep their powers a secret while leading normal lives.
It's not cheesy, either, like other shows could be when handling this subject.
I give this show 5 out of 5!

Mindmelt

So today I youtubed Rebecca Black to see why Anton had said don't listen to her.
I almost died of laughter, it was so gay.
then I saw a comment saying the chorus sounded like the one from Justin Bieber's "Baby" and after almost 20minutes considering, I listened to the song to see.

What sucks is that I actually started mouthing the words to the chorus near the end of the song while concentrating on something else, and only ater did I realize my sin.

OH GOD, PURGE THESE DEVILS FROM ME!

Fateless/The Attic

Tonight I watched The Attic and Fateless, two holocaust films.

The Attic: The Hiding of Anne Frank is a 1988 TV film based on Miep Gies' book Anne Frank Remembered. The film tells the true story of Gies' struggle to keep the family hidden and safe, as the Nazis turn Amsterdam upside-down. (Based upon Gies' memoirs and Anne Frank's famous diary).

Fateless is the story of a Hungarian teenage boy who is sent to concentration camps at Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Zeitz. It's apparently semi-autobiographal.

Both are really good if you like these sorts of films. The first one is English speaking and Pretty sad, while the second is Hungarian speaking, subbed in lots of languages (Including Swedish) and is possibly one of the saddest films I've ever seen.
I'd reccomend both films to anyone who enjoys Holocaust films.
