Stormy McHurricany

Another end of January, another strong storm. It's like a tradition by now.

We're huge in Finland!

Hold me up against the light like Lupus

It would just be wrong not to listen to the Lupus CD, especially because the lead vocalist is an old high school friend/foe of mine. :D

Champions of Euro 2008!

:-)

CSI: Cool Suave Interface

Started playing the CSI game for Playstation2. It's got a damn funny user interface, especially having just played Fahrenheit. And no, I haven't forgotten about a review of that game either... :-))

A diet? Me?

Dinner, January 21 2008

It's incredible that I can eat foods like this and still claim to be on a diet. Looks like my masterplan to turn Malrick into a full blown mall rat is a success :-)

Blu-ray, anybody?

It looks like my cousin and the jewish doctor have reasons for celebrating....

It's a rainy day...

....but I don't care! I'm drinking hot cocoa and surfing the net and feeling fine :-)

R.I.P. Heath Ledger

Heath Ledger dies at 28, on the afternoon of January 22, 2008 in New York. What a waste. Drugs have once again claimed a soul. May he rest in the peace he didn't find in life.

Anything's for sale

It seems that there's nothing that can't be turned into a profit these days. When the kids see a show on tv, of course they also have to be able to buy their wheat buns with their favorite characters on. I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just saying.....it is. This story reminds me of the brawl about the McDonalds report card. Any student with straight A or B's gets a free Happy Meal. How any school board can approve of such a thing is way, way beyond me.

Sunshine in the park

I took a walk with Pelle today around the University. it's sunshine and happy days all around, though a little chilly. luckily, we had pepsi a plenty.

Time to rethink strategy?

Magasin du Nord is usually known for high end products and prices. It's kinda disturbing to find a sign like this 3 weeks into January.

It started out so well...

So it's the webcast of the second round of semifinals in the national eurovision song contest 2008. The first 2 songs were well written, well performed. And then Simon Mathew came on looking all suave, and with extremely silly and forgettable lyrics. Not that cool. Then it was a smoke and mirrors performance by Kendra Lou. A ballad with 4 dancers in a frame. Not an internatinal winner. And the songwriters love their own product waaay too much. Sweet memories of you is a motown rip-off, with the female having a weak vocal, and the male part having a terrible stage presence. Spanish soul sounded like a 2008 rerip of Aud Wilken, only way worse in its own regard. I immedeately raised my eyebrows when I heard that Lise Cabble had a song in the mix this year. 2 bad it was in English. It lost a lot of its appeal because of that. And also the singer toally exaggerated his performance. I think I'm starting to sound a little bitter, aren't I? Faroe punk finalized the show. It was actually the most entertaining entry all night. Totally predictable, and with 4 pharaoes. Straaaange. Phar out. My vote still goes to Juanes.

I feel like foot tapping!

I treated myself to a meal @ Burger King yesterday, to celebrate me passing my semester. It was well deserved (in my opnion) and while I was downing my "Angry Whopper" meal, Scissor Sisters come on in the radio....it was hilarious to see 4-5 people in the line starting to quietly sing along or tapping their feet....I guess the song's contageous :-)

Goodie bags!

Today I went shopping! Met up at noon with my new acquaintance Iben, she and I went shopping for birthday presents for Janni & Zenia. We had a lot of mullah to burn, so we bought jewelry from Pilgrim and mango and coco products from The Body Shop and got it all wrapped up in these lovely bags. I'm sure the girls are gonna love'em! :-)

It's bloody windy, 2008 edition

As my most faithful readers will know, I posted a similar post to this one back in 2007 during another winter storm. Anyways, it's on again. The wind is picking up speed, and in the northernmost part of the country there's gonna be hurricane conditions. Thank the lord that I live further down south. I kinda wonder if I'm gonna get any sleep tonight. Either way, I won't blame myself. I'll blame it on the weatherman. :-)

On my to-do list:

Count number of people signed up for the common gift for 2 of the girls from college. Count the money. Buy jewelry.

Done!

Yes darlings, the semester project examn is all over and done with. Just gotta print the cover page now and we're all set!!! Oh sweet baby jesus, FREEEEEDOM! :-))))))))))))))))
