I Love Berlin

I keep apologizing at the beginnings of my posts. So here it is again: SORRY for not being regular and organised anymore! The thing is, my life is quite a mess at the moment, so it is hard to keep on track with all my obligations or wishes. :( I still haven't surfed :( and I havent gone to dance since Xmas either..... now after admiting that, I feel somewhat guilty.
What I have been doing is moving house.... well appartment really, from the 2nd to the 12th floor; which I don't ming but my mom can hardly look out the window without getting a heart attack. I find the view quite nice as I can see my old ''house'' and my school (what a joyfull sight, meehhh..) and the sea from the window. So right now I am sitting in an unbrearibly empty living room of my ''old'' appartment and am supposed to be doing school work... Ooops.... History Coursework to be precise. Procrastination is one of my biggest qualities :D

History has been an important part of my half term holidays, which now saldy lie behind me. I went to Berlin, and I even got to miss a few days at school :D No one can resent that.... Berlin was a very exciting experience, first of all I had never been to Berlin, even if it is the capital of my home country, but also I enjoyed being in the company of my frinds for longer than a few hours, and in a different environment than school. The trip still had a lot to do with history, as we visited a large amout of museums, memorials and such to learn about the time of anti-semitism and the cold war era in Germany. But even if we did have a lot to do there was always still alot of time to have fun. One night we went ice skating, which was definightly one of the main reason I wanted to go on the trip in the first place. I love it so much! I might not even be the best at it, but I enjoy it very much! 

The hostel/hotel in which we stayed was amazing! For 12€ a night, and included 3 meals, free internet, pool and SAUNA. Amazing. Loved it. Seriously, it was also one of the best things from the trip. evryone crowded into the tiny 6 person sauna, and we ended up having to stand because there were 14 peole in it. 

The bad thing was the weather, when we arived it snowed and when it left it snowed again, but inbetween there was rain, and wind, and freezing coldness. It was so cold, I was semi-ill immediately and I lost my voice for basicly the entire trip. Here again, I need to credit the sauna, with out which I would have been way more ill then Ireally was. But appart from that the trip was absolutely amazing, and I really already miss it. 

Part of why it was so fun also was because even though we where in seperate corridors, we did manage to ''smuggle'' some boys into our room every night, to have more fun. Sleep? We had 4 hours at the most. Which explains why I slept 19 hours once I got home. And also alcohol. I'm not going to say much about it except for that it ended in us getting in trouble over someone throwing up in their bed. Not good. But most of us where OK actually. Including me.
One of the new discoveries I have made since I have come home, and boredom has shook me is Downton Abbey, which is a british television series playing in they early 1900's and which includes Maggie Smith, who makes everything hilarious, even though she is a very dry and posh woman. I have now finished the first season, and I must say I like all the characters very much, especially Anna the head housemaid. Of course I hope that Mry and Matthew will end up together happily every after but we will see. I knew about the show for sometime through the blog of one of my favourite authors Kristin Cashore who writes about it, and made it seem interesting for me. But I only started now, when I felt I had nothing else to do. (Which is not true there is always a lot to do, the problem is, they're things I don't feel like doing most of the time.) And I regret leaving it for so long because I really like the show.

My first longer blog post and I am talking about history throughout most of it..... I hope I didn't bore you too much.

My Berlin songs:

Sweet Dreams - Marylin Manson

I'm Sorry!

I'm sorry for the break!! Soo with my birthday being nearly two weeks ago, I now feel guilty with not writing anymore. As some prezzies I got the Mission Impossible boxed set, Whoooop Whoooop! I love it, I love ittt! I've already watched them all!
Also I finished Eragon, finally! Not finally because I was bored with it, but because I couldn't wait to get to the end! Galbatorix dies, thankfully! And basically the only thing that I didn't like was the fact that Eragon and Arya ended up seperated. I'm such a hopeless romantic! :( I can understand that it doesnt work since she is queen and he has to look for new land and stuff but I still cried in the end. Which just proves that it is really an amazing book! Inheritance is known to be the last book of the series, but Christopher Paolini said that he would return to Alagaesia at some point, so I am still hoping fiercely for another book! I really want them to end up together. Also, is Saphira going to lay an egg? Awww, Saphira is gonna be a mommy!

Otherwise, I am up to date on all my series, yayyy, and I was seriously shocked when Louis tells Blaire that she is basicly forced to be his fake wife. I mean, I really always wanted her to be with him so that she could become a princess! But I was also happy because she did love him to some extent! And because Chuck was a serious twat for a a long time now. And Oh My Goodness, Georgina as GG!? No Thank you! The best thing about the last episode was the two Charlie's meeting, I found that so cool!
I am off to Berlin for a few days tomorrow since next week is carnival holidays! Yayyyy! I am really looking forward to going to Germany with all my friends, and showing of my awsome language skills, and eating currywurst and going ice skating and evverythinggg! So this wil be an extremely short post :(
Ps.: I've still got to pack :S
Night! XX

Song of the next few days:
Disco Pogo - Die Atzen

Are You OK?

WOW, I just watched the new glee episode, and I had not expected to be so amazed. I am a glee fan and I watch it regularly but this is probably the BEST cover they've done! Without a doubt! WOW. AMAZING. I'm so flattened. I don't even have words. Just this: I'M OBSESSED.
Glee (not my FAVOURITE TV show) + MJ (not my FAVOURITE performer) = SOMETHING ABSOLUTELY FRICKING AMAZING.
I think this composition of the voices together and the Cellos is making me speechless. I am now listening to it for the 7th time consecutively. I JUST LOVE IT! The Cellos and the voices.... Wow. I'm getting all upset, that's how good I think it is.
You can just see how this impressed me by the fact that I'm ignoring my Mondays posting schedule. Just Wow.
OK, I better stop now. I don't know if you even begin to understand how amazing this is but. I won't bore you any longer with random outbursts or emotion.
And you can already guess my Song of the Moment, so all that remains for me to say is, Night. XX

PS.: 8th time. Just Wow.

''Two can keep a Secret, if one of them is Dead''

''Got a secret, can you keep it?

Swear this one you'll save.

Better lock it, in your pocket,

taking this one to the grave.

And I show you that I know 

you won't tell what I said.

'Cause two can keep a secret, 

if one of them is dead.''

As some of you might have guessed from the title, my newest ''obsession'' is the American TV series Pretty Little Liars and that^^ is the into song. I especially love that song. It's kinda creepy, but it sticks to your brain and tays there... My favorite characters from the series are probably Aria and Spencer because I can somewhat identify myself with Aria and I just love the way Spencer's brain works. Hehe, I don't know but she is so amazingly clever but seriously sporty and modern and cool, and no one would dare to ever call her a nerd. I find it cool that the 4 girls are all so completely different, with Hanna the drama queen, Aria the crazy/hippie one, Spencer the intelectual and Emily the sweetheart. 

Also the show has quite a cast of hot guys. My personal favourite up to now is still Spencer's ex-boyfriend Alex Santiago (Diego Boneta). I fell in love with him mostly because he knew how to dance. Demonstrated in the kitchen scene. If you can remember.

The storyline is also really good, because it keeps the tension there, and there are always unexpected twists and turns. I also find that annoying though, because I just want them to finnaly find out something that is actually important. But before that ever happens ''A'' just makes sure that all proof of what ever is lost.
So in a very few days I have watched all of season one and nearly half of the second one. Thats just how exciting and good it is. I've even somewhat neglected Eragon because of it :/ 

I am now halfway through book 4. Oromis and Glaedr died, which was pretty obvious to happen but still annoyed me soo much... and then Roran succeeded with his crazy plan to ''capture'' Aroughs. Eragon and Arya are sword fighting and Glaedr finally comes out of his depression to instruct Eragon again. (Yup, he IS dead, but is ''heart of hearts'' survived and is with Eragon which means that only this physical body really died.) The funnies thing recently is that Saphira is so vain, she lost one of her scales on her nose and makes a huge fuss about it, like and human girl would about a spot :D

Tomorrow we are having an interhouse crosscountry ompetition... -.- YAY.... Not. I can hardly jog for the length if the run without stopping.... I haven't surfed in 6 weeks either..... :( so I am completely unfit. But good news is that we are now finally doiing basket ball in PE, instead of volley ball (which I hate) and also because of the competition, we are allowed to wear homeclothes tomorrow! Yayyyy!

This is my monday post, so byeeeee! oh and Thanx for the NEARLY 300 views this month! XX

International Love

Brian Jeong & Ethan Leeman: "International Love" by Pitbull (Ft. Chris Brown) - YouTube

I absolutely love, love, looooooveee this! Especially Ethan.... the guy on the right, with the white cap. Wow those guys are so amazing! My lovely friend Laura showed me this video because she was researching dance for her GCSE PE Dance and she found it and now we are both absolutely obsessed.
I am still reading Brisingr but I am on the last 100 pages so I will hopefully finish it fairly quickly. Eragon is now in Ellesmèra and Oromis just told him that Brom is his father rather than Morzan! So that is a veryy good thing, and also Orik is now King of the dwarves thank god. Nasuada is really annoying me because she has become so posessive of Eragon, I kann understand that if you are on the brink of war, you woudn't want your best fighter to disappear but a) for a small about of time they would be fine without him and b) I think it's stupid of her to be like that, when her behaviour only aggrivates and alienates Eragon even more than necessary. It seem like she is really full of herself...
The some of the other books I bought via amazon have finally arrived, I was really beginning to worry. I have now got The Power of Six (by Pittacus Lore) which is a sequel to I Am Number Four and I had allready read on epubbud.com but now I have the book, which I preffer way more than just reading it. And a third squel was announced which is called The Rise of Nine. Yayy! Also I have now got Pretties by Scott Westerfeld and Extras also by him. Now I just need Specials to complete the series.
My birthday is in a little less than 2 weeks which on one hand is reallt good but on the other hand not because I have not fullfilled my list of things to do befor I'm 16.... But I am staying in Portugal this time! I'm going to Berlin another 2 weeks after thaat though, because I am taking a trip with my History class there in the Carnival Hols. I am really excited mostly because the program is quite fun (we're going ice skating!!!!) and also because I will be very much enjoying to boast about my German skills..... hehe...

This post isn't particularily long as I a) have to still do my homework and b) am watching Sherlock 2 again, for the 3rd time. Soooo byee! XX

'via Blog this'

Consulting Detective: Sherlock.

At the moment it seems I am quite obsessed with Sherlock Holmes. No wonder, with the second film being even more brilliant than the first. (I have now already seen it twice and the devil pony and the urban camouflage are still as good as the first time! A lot of my friends said I should watch the BBC version of Sherlock. And because of this so called obsession, I did. I have now finished the first season :( which only has three episodes anyways :'( and I am absolutely in love with this modern portayal of Sherly, Watson and Moriaty. Where I have to compare Robert Downey Jr. and Benedict Cumberbatch I just have to say that they are both brillian in their own way and completely suited for the different portrayals of Holmes that they act as. Downey Jr. is perfect in his 1890ish area in which modern technology has to be replaced with an even higher level of unike brilliancy which edges onto madness. And Cumberbatch presents Sherlock as a modern megamind who is droven by an aspegerish focus which repersents the modern day life well. Both Watsons are portayed amazingly as well of course, where I have to say that where in the film Sherlock is the childish one in the series Watson is the one who I worry about most of the time.
I have moved on to Brisingr. It is amazing as are all the others. I have just realised that he is only 28 and he has released four 1000-page-bestsellers already! WOW! I know that there is not going to be a 5th book of Eragon, since he had already only planned on writing tree books in the beginning but I really hope that there is another one to come beause I know I will miss Eragon once I have finished his story.
Brisingr is as espected, and already said a really good book, and Murtagh reappears. Yay... kind of... or not. I absolutely loved him in book one, but now he has become Galbatorix' tool and tries to kill his own brother, what a f**ktard! Also Elva, the girl who Eragon intended to bless, but actually cursed, has become a slightly annoying character. I find her decision to keep her gift good, it was exactly what I wanted, but I never wanted her to ABUSE her power!!! I guess she is just a two year old toddler but for the adult brain she owns she shud behave more wisely.
So one and a half more Eragon's to go and I am already dreading the end (which doesn't cause me to read any slower but still,..). I did buy the rest of the Uglies on Amazon some time ago but they havent arived yet... Arghhhhhh! *rage* I want them noooww! Also I want my newest Sookie book! I miss True Blood.
This is the first week I went back to normal school, mocks are over and I have already got some results... thre B's in History, Chemistry and Maths.... In all of which I am aming for A's at the end of the year. So life is just going on I guess... Oh, and I also had my first Little Shop of Horrors rehersal yesterday, which was basicly only learning parts of two of the songs but I am really happy because it sounds really good!
Nothing else to tell.... Byeeeeee!


Music of the Moment:
Little Shop of Horrors Song (Sorry, I don't know the composer)

29th of February

Ok, I am really sorry. I said I woudn't be late again but now I am -.-
So that said first, I only have one more day of examss! Yayy! Portuguese Foreign Language tomorrow and them I'm finished!
I DID get Crossed (by Ally Condie, sequel to Matched) the same day I posted the last post, and I've already finished it. I must say, I do not particularily like the books, mostly due to the fact that I still live Xander more, even if you did get to know Ky a bit better. I actually started to like Ky, since half of the chapters are written in his perspective but, even if I now sympathise with him more as an individual, I still don't like the fact that Cassia runs after him while Xander is just perfect for her. Also, Indie, I liked her in the beginning but seriously, get over yourself, your an Aberration, fine, I get it, but you dont have to steal peoples Matches...! So, I liked this book if I can block out the stupid love story...
More books arrived: Eldest, Brisingr and Inheritance which are the rest of the Eragon series, YAY! I'm halfway through Eldest right now so Murtagh is still ''dead'', which is actually better than being a traitor I think, and Arya was just prooven to be a 100 year old princess... Nice... I really do hope Eragon and Arya will end up together, even if there is a massive age difference, she could basicly be his great-great-great-grandmother.... WOW! I just realised tht....
Then I just watched Leap Year which is such a nice film!! I really liked it! It's about Anna (Amy Adams) who wants to marry her long time slimy boyfriend and when he doesn't propose to her she goes to Dublin to propose to him, on leap day. But since there are weather problems, she lands in Brittain and then has to make her journey with the slightly arrogant guy who is willing to drive her to Dublin because he is broke... An then the car breaks and they have to pretend to be married and they slowly fall in love.... yaayyyyy.... it's an absolute chick flick but every girl needs those once in a while....
Then some funny things happened in school, 1st of ll I found out that my friend Ines has a photographic memory of something ;P and 2nd the other day after school a guy from one of the higher years lost his glove and didn't notice and she ran after him screaming ''Your Glove!!! Your Gloooovee!!!! YOUR GLOVEE!!!'' and he and she hadn't even noticed that she had behaved really embarrassingly..... I still love you sweety don't worry, sometimes you are just hilarious!
So not a very long post today.... since I don't want to annoy everyone by posting up every little detail about my failed exams (aka. all of them), Byee XX
