Er

I have my first exam next week..Phonology..ugh
Wanted to come here and whine a little bit, but after reading this, it would make me sound like a serious tool..

breast cancer
10-year old girl
WTF, those two things just do not go together..
My effin exams are nothing compared to what that girl must be going through..
I'll just..um..
Come back another day









I heart Heartless Doll for having both - the funnies and the serious stuff...
Holy Sweet Jebus Christ tap dancing on a cracker how one needs some funnies after reading that..

I can't travel without an iPod full of music and a good book

Random bits & pieces

I was in Tallinn for a few days and the time flew by...Got there, did a couple of things and the next thing i know im up hella early, and trying to sleep on the bus..Which didn't really work..
______________________________________________________________________________
I actually understand what the old people were talking about when i was younger.."Time just goes by so fast, when you're older"..
pshh, "yeah right" was my answer to that..
And now..
Fuck, the prunes are right:)
My birthday is miles away, sort of, and im panicking already..
I think im gonna stay 22 for a while..:)It should be fun..imagine with me, if you will:
"Happy birthday!Wow, so 23 eh.."
Im 22
"Ee,yeah, well thats what i meant..you were 22 and now you're 23.."
Well, no..I decided that im gonna be 22 for about a decade or so
*blank face* "What the fuck for?"
Um, i dunno..im not good with numbers..my math skills are shit..?
_____________________________________________________________________________
So, what did i do@home?I'll try to remember..
Well, admired the new kitchen, fo shoo..
Figured out that there IS a difference when watching Halloween and A Nightmare On Elm Street at age 12 and then 10 years later..hah..Fell asleep before the second one ended..or maybe that was the alcohol..
Anyways..my lovely sister took me to the movies..some absurd comedy..with Rush music, cool..
Also, checked out the new digs of my crazy-cooler alter-ego..
And well, blablablaaa..
When i came back to Tartu, the sky was looking eerily rain-ready..so our picnic plan with the classic and nostalgic birthday food kartulisalat+viiner was down the drain, instead we replaced it with the equally classic crazy-kitchen-table-talk..And crazy it was..
Remember people:
Sleep is important!

And now I actually remember what I wanted to write in this post..about random things..After the kitchen stuffing, i dragged myself to school..And while waiting for the lecture to begin, this random old man walks in, looks around, walks towards the window and back..Then sees the piano and starts playing it!(and i have no frickin' idea why there is a piano in the room in the first place, tbh) And he wasn't bad..After a minute or so, he gets up, we clapped and he left..Like I said, random:)A very cool random thing..

Muthaflippin'

While skimming the world wide web, I came across this top 10 list and the thing is soo full of awesome! It listed the best songs from Flight of the Conchords..and I agree with the songs chosen for 1&2..but the other ones..no Sugarlumps?!
I mean, there are so many other good ones, that i couldn't list them all..and let alone only 10 songs..But still, the ones that were put there, are funny as shit!:)Thank sweetmarymotheerofjeebus for the show..



And this is just somethin' else;)

Oh, and Marit..if this doesn't make you wanna check out the original, then i don't know what will..should i bring the dvd with me?!:D..you know, where to answer

Moving Picture

May is a good month..
A movie month..

Which reminds me that i saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine on the 1st of May..The good things about the movie were Hugh Jackman, Gambit, naked Hugh Jackman and Deadpool..And guess what - the latter character will get its own spinoff X-Men movie..surprise surprise, right..
http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/wolverine-easter-egg-hatches-spinoff/

And considering that the movie was leaked, it still had quite the box-office..$87Million on opening weekend.

Anywhoo..I wonder how Angels&Demons turned out with Ewan McGregor playing a priest (not a bad thing,btw;) and whatnot else..

The drug takers and the law breakers and the bottom bashing fornicators

Fuck
fuuuck

Let me repeat

FUCK
FUUUUUCK
FUCK

Went to see The Boat That Rocked yesterday..I've been waiting for it to hit cinemas for quite a while now, and oh boy, i was not disappointed.Not.At.All!


Don't really remember the last time i laughed so much in the cinema..Very enjoyable and awesome..And the music..The music was sooooooooooooo bloody good&fit the movie perfectly(hence the fuck-beginning)..
So here are just some of the musical pearls:





I wanna see it again..and again..
For the actors, come on..Hoffman, Ifans, Nighy, Frost, Branagh..and the young one, who played Carl..or the ones who played Simple Simon or Thick Kevin..yeah..or the mystery silent dude...or the bearded fellow..They all did a fucking good job:D
Like i said: A.Fucking.Good.Movie!!!!
THE feel-good movie of the year..You will leave with a grin on your face..otherwise..you're just..odd :)

Oh man, i wish i could've been there in the 60s, so much shit went down then..But until they invent a time machine, i will count on music,books and films..Which reminds me - there will be another 60s movie hitting the cinemas soon:D
Its about Woodstock!!woooooooooohoooooooooooooooooo
A man working at his parents' motel in the Catskills inadvertently sets in motion the generation-defining concert in the summer of 1969.

And can i just say one thing..It's unbelievable how similar the curly haired dude is to the..um, original curly haired dude:D

Funnies 2

Okey, so after the laughter-slash-deathscare yesterday, i did some digging in my computer files and discovered some lol'worthy failblog things..








This bus-stop is located near the Pirita river, just a little before you can turn left and head towards the cemetary/Muuga..:D






Oh, and this is just something else...
There is this whole thing about Twitter, somebody tweeted this and that, and blablablaaa..i mean, i don't use it myself (don't have an account), but i look up 2musicians from time to time, and thats it..Now, apparently there is a certain number of characters for the message (if i understand correctly) and some people just don't know spelling..And the lovely woman, who wrote the post below makes a point about the Twitter thing by..well, Tweeting of course:D...(or um, is it twittering?!oh who gives a fuck anyway)

laughing+coughing=not enough oxygen in my lungs...

But those pictures are really..i mean..you just gotta look yourself:

Day 2 of conference

So, the thing is finally over..
Yesterday started veryveryvery early for me - i woke up a little before 7am..yeah, those who know me are going "WTF?!How on earth did you get up so early?"..well, it definately was not easy..took me about an hour to look less zombie-like, but i still felt like shit..the invisible ball was stuck down my throat..
Coughing my lungs out - check
Piercing headaches while coughing - check
Runny nose - check
With all three of the above, listening to the presentations and trying to think along was nearly impossible but somehow i managed.
So what new things did i found out on the second day?
Americans like stuff..a lot of stuff..Keeping up with the Jones's stuff..
Romero's zombie films have a point in them
Americans like big things (houses,cars,food etc)..supersize,people, it's all about supersize
American dream is not what it used to be..you know, crisis affects that shit and all..nightmarish rather..
Cary Grant thought his best side was his left one..or no, wait..er..right side
bad bank is the same as unmarried bachelor in some linguistic term (oxymoron, i think..)
Young kids are permanently attached to youtube..
Some small cities in the US are relocating their residents to different parts of the town to save some money..
Huh, guess i better start soon on the response paper before i forget things..

The weirdest part of yesterday was when out of the blue my left leg started to hurt..i mean like 'i-pulled-my-muscle-pain'..very weird..And it still hurts.
When the conference ended, i came back to the dorm, entered my room like a tornado, throwing everything either on the floor or the table and just collapsed on the bed..and slept until the morning..it felt soooooo good..And im slightly more human today..
Since today is Sunday, everyone seems to think about making pancakes.I woke up and the kitchen smelled like them,mm..I tried, but mine came out more waffle-like (next time - more flour)..haa haa, what a moron:D
I have a small amount of cognac left, so i guess its time for a final cup of tea with it..oh well:)

I find everything and nothing offensive

everything and nothing

Day 1 of conference

Today was the first day of the conference (check below) and it was soooooo mind-numbingly long..My brain wasn't functioning at all and i was huffing and puffing like a fish on dry land.Probably looked like a retard with my mouth open all the time:D But it is really hard to concentrate when all you want to do is blow your brains out of your nose or cough your lungs out..
The first plenary presentation (John F. Kennedy and the American Dream) was really interesting, learned some new facts about JFK.
It's just so weird how people actually see the things they really want to see.Only the positive aspects, but come on now - no one is perfect.

Anywhoo, hours passed in a hazeanddaze and finally the thing was over..
I was starving and my throat was killing me..And thank you, thank you, thank you my sweet roomie for the cognac..Tea with cognac is just heaven right now..Yeah, if i would have had a flask, that shit would be empty by now:)

Oh well, my eyes are shooting lasers at this moment.
Day 2 is sneaking up..

AAA-chooo..

I guess it makes perfect sense for me to catch a cold (again,btw) just a few days before the damn conference.Because there ain't nothing more fun to do with a runny nose and a throat that feels like someone stuck a ball down it, then to listen people talk about American dreams etc from 9am to 19pm for two days.Awesome indeed.
And goddamn, i just wasted 60eq on Theraflu, that i can't actually drink. Vastunäidustused, my ass..

Stupid Spring weathers - one minute it's hot, the other it's cold.I feel like im stuck in some stupid Katy Perry song..

Speaking of songs..
I was watching tv the other day and suddenly i heard Klaxons-Golden Skans as background music to a shampoo commercial..um, random much?!

Chimpanzees are really running things on Earth

Leave a party if you see no booze and hear crap music.

no booze and hear crap music.

The 9th International Tartu Conference on North-American Studies, AMERICAN DREAMS

This will be a really boring post, 'cause there ain't nothing to tell for now..
Only that i have 6 more weeks of lectures to go..
And that im going to some kind of a conference next week. Hey, i get 2AP's from it. For free..gotta take what is given. Though, i do have to write a 3-4 page essay on it to actually see the 2AP appear in ÕIS.
I just really hope it will be interesting, because i will need lots and lots of coffee otherwise..or a flask..or both:D..yeah, that would be ideal...hee hee *jk, jk*


The program seems pretty good. Definite ones are the plenary presentations, but the workshops..erm, i dunno,still deciding. And while reading the thing right now, i discovered sth..holy hell..*runs off to share w/ others*

Well, that sure was a nice surprise..sort of


And how am i supposed to be at two places at once, if there are two workshops at the same time?And i wanna hear them both..Im not good with decisions.
Well, scheisse.
Still got some time.
