okay, i now also have a Live Journal where i will be posting mainly from now on.

go here!

thank you.

 
more shopping done today:

"Chocolat" soundtrack
"Shakespeare in Love" - DVD
a "LotR" poster i already liked before i even watched the movies. i just couldn't resist buying it now.

 
today i went on my first little shopping spree with some of my birthday/christmas money. i am allowing myself to give out 100 Euro of it just for fun and the rest of it will be saved on my bank account :D

today i bought:
"Toy Story" - DVD
"Don Juan De Marco" - DVD
"Return of the King" - Soundtrack

more will hopefully follow tomorrow. most probably more DVD's. hehe.

 
i am home from the cinema.

ohshit. WOW! amazing.

(i am still waiting for people to tease me to whom i told i don't care for those movies and will never watch them. surprisingly enough that didn't happen up till now. LoL!)

 
*uhm* yeah, still here. (and i see i lost a lot of my comments. ahwell.)

going to see "Return of the King" tomorrow. wheee :) and i am still kinda in denial that i am actually that excited about this movie. damnit. my Dad is going to tease me to no end when he sees how excited i am and then he will tease me cause i bet i am going to cry at some point. i know me. LoL!

 
i forgot to say something about the trailer. and i know i am repeating myself, but it just cannot be said often enough. Gary Oldman is brilliant. i love, love, love him! he alone is creating most of my excitement about this movie. it was so great to finally see him "in action" instead of all those still pictures. how he laughs in that "Wizard Wanted" poster is insane. i totally expect him to make me love Sirius. he will be amazing. if there is one thing i am sure about this movie then it is that he will be great!!!

and Boggart!Snape is hilarious!!! i love it that they put that scene in the teaser. LoL!

 
i've just seen the "PoA" teaser trailer. goodgoodgood! it looks absolutely wonderful! eeek, i cannot believe i am that excited about a movie that won't be released before June 2004!

 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HEARTY! i heart you!!!! cannot wait for the party weekend. *smooch*

 
OMG! with all these new pictures of "Prisoner of Azkaban" i am really getting excited about this movie. and it is far too early to get this excited already. LoL! oh, i am still sceptical about some things but also very, very excited!!!! i simply CANNOT wait to see Gary Oldman portraying Sirius. i am just so positive he will do a wonderful job.

 
Revolutions:

i better won't say anything about it, only this: Mary and I never left a cinema that dissapointed before :(

 
i had my first Stephen Fry video evening today :) before Pats left for London she left three tapes with various Stephen Fry shows/movies/interviews in my care. and then i taped two or three things when i was in England in september. so, i have still enough to watch.

 
i "accidentally" saw David Bowie in concert today. that.was.fucking.brilliant. that man got an awesome voice, whoa!!!! i really had a lot of fun.

well, but i still wish i hadn't cause my Mum was meant to go and see him. but as some of you know she's in hospital since Wednesday evening, so i went instead. i just hope she gets another chance to see him sometime cause this was actually one of her big dreams in live. she loves Bowie since she was a young girl and her first LP actually was from Bowie. *crosses fingers for Mum*

btw. Mary was there, too :D hehe.

from where i sat he looked like an innocent, sixteen year old boy. LoL! ohgosh, and when he sang "Heroes" he won me totally over and i jumped from my seat to my feet :D

only one thing did dissapoint me a bit: the end. that was much too quick! as far as i could tell from the reactions of other people, they thought the same. i sat there and thought: "Huh? that's it?" and my Dad was going: "He isn't finished, is he?" but ohwell, the rest was great. (Mr. Bowie, work on your encore a bit ;))

(and he just has to be Voldemort in Harry Potter. i need to write Warner Bros. a letter!! he is just perfect for that role!)

Vielen Danke!

 
This is for Mary. *snicker*

 
next wednesday at 2:45 pm Mary and I will be watching "Revolutions"! got our tickets yesterday and already got ourselves in the right mood for the movie :)

 
happy birthday, chelley-beans!!! i heart you! and i am ever SO sorry you didn't get a card from me but these last few weeks were so full of stress and now my Mum's been sick (still is) that i totally forgot. please forgive me? you know that you still get a pressie, right? *smooches*

 
here is a sentence i never thought i'd say: i am going to watch "LotR: The Return of the King" in the cinema!

as i said somewhere down there in this very blog i am not a very patient person and as i have seen the first movie now and liking some of the characters i wanna see how the whole thing ends (no, i haven't read (all) the books. obviously. i fought myself through the Hobbit though. and no, i don't wanna just ask people.) so, i asked Dennis if she'd like to go with me some time around my birthday as the movie will be released at that time. so, like last year Dennis will invite me to the cinema for my birthday :) *smooches*

okay, so what i have to do before that is to watch "The Two Towers". LoL!

 
wheee! Mary copied me "Schokolatt" (Chocolat) and "Schleppy Hollof" (Sleepy Hollow). I love "Chocolat", I never thought that would be a movie I like, but I really, really do. I forgot to copy it for myself when she first lend to me. but now i can watch it again. and i am really looking forward to seeing "Sleepy Hollow" in english, only have seen it in german so far. and yesterday i also bought the "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" DVD. my video cassette of that wasn't watchable anymore. LOL! I watched that movie so often the poor cassette gave up on me. i adore that movie, one of my all time faves!!! aahhh, so i have enough Johnny Depp for now :D

and it is not fair that they are selling the "Chocolat" DVD for only 10 Euro right now. I always have to force myself to not pick it up. I so wanna see the extras on it. but it has to wait till next year, I can only hope it will still be as cheap.

and no, "Schokolatt" and "Schleppy Hollof" are not the German titles for the movies. LOL! those are just Mary's and my own titles for them (and Mary wrote them like this on the cassette she made for me). we just do this all the time, you know. saying the english titles or names of people like someone who doesn't know any english at all would ;) or better: reading them exactly how they are written out ;)

 

Good stuff, you are "Wedding? I love
weddings! Drinks all around." You're the
life of the party and nothing gets you down,
not even certain death at the hands of your
zombie nemesis or the Navy. Come to think of
it, realism isn't your strong suit...


Which one of Captain Jack Sparrow's bizarre sayings from Pirates of the Caribbean are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

 
okay, Mary! you and me, our "Pirates" DVD and a bottle of Captain Jack rum have a date :D

let's play! heh.

 
yesterday i finished listening to my audiobook of "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". have i told you lately that i adore Stephen Fry? he is so far the only person who can make me really listen to and enjoy an audiobook. it only took me a week to get through "PoA". i intended on taking some more time cause i was (well... am actually) saving up for "Goblet of Fire". but i somehow ended up listening to it every evening for about 90 to 120 minutes. straight after i finished it i ordered "GoF". yeah, i only had saved up 20 Euro for it to this point but as they all are going for half price right now i didn't wanna risk it being more expensive again by the time i had saved up enough. so, i keep saving and as soon as i saved the amount i need i'll put it on my bank account. there you go. heh. (didn't i mention somewhere in a previous post that i am not a very patient person? :D)

and there was one scene yesterday night i never found particular emotional in the book (yeah, it was for Harry but it had never really affected me too much) but how it was read to me i all of a sudden had teary eyes. i am telling you, i am such a cry baby. but you all know that anyway, right?

ah, and i liked Lupin before but now i am positively loving that guy :D

and now i REALLY wanna see that movie. ack. i cannot believe i still have to wait till june next year till that one will be released. listening to the end of the book made me especially wanna see the whole Shrieking Shack scene and the scenes before and after. i cannot wait to see that acted out. i will probably have one giggle fit after another about Snape. the whole Shrieking Shack scene is definitely not his finest hour. LoL! and i am also excited about that scene cause that is where i finally get to see Gary Oldman portraying Sirius. wheeee. i have total faith in him. Sirius never was one of my fave characters in the books, but with Gary Oldman playing him it could actually make him loved by me. hehe. and of course the fact that Emma Thompson was just cast as Professor Trelawney made me even an ickle bit more excited about that movie.
(still pissed off though at the fact that there will be no Oliver Wood in this movie. and i am kinda still hoping there will.)

speaking of Stephen Fry: saturday evening i received a text message from my friend Pats who is living in London right now that only said: "i've seen Stephen Fry. Gonna send you his pants (trousers for everybody who might think of something else ;)) on a postie tomorrow!" LOL! that text message actually made my day!!!
*ggg* the pants part is a little joke between us. i actually asked for Rickman's pants to be send to me as a proof if she actually manages to see him (i am still crossing my fingers that he'll be on stage sometime in the time she is in London)

 
"and well, if mary and i were into girls, this would be the one we would have a cat fight over. yeah."
hehe, yeah, the Jenna Elfman splash page has to come back one day. still my fave one.



Mary: "Yeah, we are going to watch the movie again and right after we come out of the cinema we go and commit ourselves to a mental institution!" (you know, Mary, maybe the one in Langenfeld? Oh no, we never wanted to go to Langenfeld again. *tries to forget bus riding adventure unsuccessfully* LoL!)

and to my disbelief i actually had a discussion about "LotR" with Dennis today. i am still kinda shocked with myself that i watched the movie. LoL! with everything said my fave thing what Dennis said had nothing to do with the movie itself.
"Well I, myself, watched it in the cinema. And my butt hurt so much after that!" - when i feel sick and depressed i find this amusing, yes.

Me *rolling my eyes*: "Now I probably have to go and watch part three in the cinema!"
Dennis *sighing*: "We might just have to do that, yeah!"
Me: "Or I have to wait a year."

Thing is, now that I saw the first one and liking some of the characters I just need to see the other two parts aswell. "TTT" will be no problem as my Dad will get that Box Set for his birthday but with the third part now I actually have to make a decision if I go to the cinema or wait a year for the last box set (cause there must be one again, right? LoL!) but as I am not really a very patient person I don't know if I could do that.

oh, and Mary, if you read this here before we talk/meet again: "Freddie vs Jason" actually will be released on the 20th aswell. LMAO! now our original plan for that day would be great but as I said before, where to go afterwards?

 
newsflash:
okay, so i am going to that housewarming party. Dennis called. She doesn't wanna go as well, but we decided we'll go anyway and only stay for about two hours cause we both don't wanna stay the night. So we take the last train home at eleven o'clock and can both sleep in our own beds and we didn't dissapoint our friend :D

 
OMG! I cannot wait to see this movie!!!!
The trailer alone is hysterical. And gorgeous men in there! *yummy* And just look at the cast in particular: Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, Alan Rickman, Keira Knightley, Emma Thompson... and more! (but these being my fave ones in the movie). With Grant, Firth and Rickman there I won't know where to look. and think of all those gorgeous british accents in that movie. Gaaaah! Wheeee!

it opens the same day as "Finding Nemo" over here (i think it is the 20th November) and if the english cinema shows one of them in the morning (noon) and the other one at noon (afternoon) Mary and I plan to watch them both on the same day *ggg*

Oh, and "Freddie vs Jason" actually will come into german cinemas. but Mary and I already wondered if they might cut too much out of it ... which would be typical.

 
okay, this day was enough, i need to rant. and get some stuff out.

yesterday was a relatively good day, i felt a bit better but today was aweful.

first thing: a friend promised to call me over two weeks ago. well, she even said she'd come by the next day. no friend came. i tried to get hold of her asking why she didn't come and after three days and a few short messages i finally get an answer saying she had stomach ache. okay, that's fine, i understand that she didn't feel well and wanted to stay at home but couldn't she have told me that, couldn't she let me know? i was waiting for her to come or at least call as she said she would but nothing. and i am a person who tends to worry quickly. so, i worry about if i said or did something wrong or if something happened to her or a family member (i know i am paranoid but that's me) well, when i received that text message with the reason why she didn't come she also told me she would call me the next day. well, i haven't heard anything up till now. you know, normally i would have already phoned her but this time i am just too pissed off. and then again i feel guilty for being pissed off at her cause i know she doesn' t mean anything by it. but i just cannot help the way i feel. and i know the minute she calls me all my anger will be gone again and the whole thing will be forgotten. so, this whole being pissed off thing is just a waste of energy and making me feel guilty cause i love my friend. cause i just don't want to be pissed off at her. (and well, i worry about her, too. so in the end i will call her anyway as i am worried like heck that something happened... )

and then i am still depressed in general. it's the whole autumn/uni semester start thing. waaah. i am trying to stop the feeling but i cannot. i just don't wanna do anything. just stay in bed. another friend of mine invited me to a housewarming party next friday and even that feels like a dread to me. i don't know if i can get the energy to go to Düsseldorf and meet a whole bunch of people i don't know (cause whatever people may think: i am still shy!) and then stay the night. or party in general. these parties tend to go till early in the mornings and i just don't have the energy for that. but i also don't wanna dissapoint her. *sigh*

there is another thing which is getting to me but i won't discuss that in here. let's just say: i can see that it is only two months for christmas to come. *rolleyes*

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! everything is just going wrong right now. at least that is how it feels. when i found something to cheer me up, the next minute something else gets me terribly down again.

okay, sorry for that. but i need to write that down and let it out for once.

*tries to concentrate on good stuff* --> meeting Mary tomorrow.
