Long week with friends, friends and movies....

Well, that was that week then. Phew. It was awesome having [livejournal.com profile] astroflammante and [livejournal.com profile] tekiila here. It really was. But as always when something ain't as it usually is, I get easily stressed. Don't know why. I had no reason to really, but there you go. Now things are back in there regular tracks though.

Tuesday evening they worked on there masters thesis in preparation off there seminar, so they didn't get here until late. They meet up with some friends to, while in this city. Wednesday [livejournal.com profile] astroflammante and [livejournal.com profile] tekiila had there seminar and meet with a friend off theres in the evening. They got there masters thesis approved at that seminar, so now they are done! YAY! Why, yes. I am damn proud off them. Might add that during Wednesday it was a damn snowstorm to... :-P They got back here safely though, despite the fact that the public transport was less then reliable that evening... Back here at our apartment we celebrated with [livejournal.com profile] peting73s special caloric punch cake. Epic. Thursday was the last evening [livejournal.com profile] astroflammante and [livejournal.com profile] tekiila was to stay here, so we spent the evening playing Trivial Pursuit and talking and eating dried fruit and cheese. Awesome. :-D

Friday morning while I was working they both returned home. Always awesome having you guys here. My door is always open, and that sofa bed is here for the use if you need it. ;-) (That goes for all my RL-friends.)

So, Friday I was dragged to Gothenburg by [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit since she wanted to do some shopping and watch the movie Cracks there, that only played on theaters for three days during the Gothenburg International Film Festival. She and her friend [livejournal.com profile] diana_hawthorne have been chatting about this movie for ages about how bloody awesome it is, amazing... whatever superlatives you can think off... And that I would like it to, since it has a lot of femme-slash in it. Of course my curiosity was peeked, so it wasn't that hard to talk me into going with her. Besides, I needed to restock my stock off vampire-makeup... ;-) (Only place to buy that stuff is in Gothenburg.) So we had a great day walking around and shopping what we needed. :-) (We found a really, really nice outfit for [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit! She looked awesome in it!) Anyway, so off we went to watch Cracks. And yes, it had a lot of femme-slash in it. It was a nice creepy story. (School-girls in school-outfits in a boarding-school on the country-side off Great Britain, a charismatic teacher that later proves to be... less then stable...) So nothing wrong with the story. It was quite good, actually. Showing what manipulation can do to kids and young adults. The femme-slash was there with big red letters, holy shit it was. BUT! It was not as good as [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit and [livejournal.com profile] diana_hawthorne made it out to be. Far from it in my mind. Still a good movie. But not, to quote Chester A. Bum off the famous Bum Reviews, "The greates movie I have ever seen!!". Far from it. Still a good movie. But not that good. :-P I would recommend people to see it still. It is well worth seeing. I would have gotten it on a DVD though, instead off going to the movies. :-P Sorry girls!

Last night me and [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit were supposed to work on my pirate coat. And we did! I was even sewing by hand. Something I hate with a vengeance, but sometimes you don't have a choice. :-P Sadly we couldn't work the whole evening as the plan was, since she suddenly felt ill, so... That was that then. :-P I talked to her on the phone today, and it wasn't anything serious. Still never fun though. :-P

Today I haven't done much at all. Just lazed about. I think I needed that. X-D I am working on getting caught up with my f-list, so if you get random comments on week-old entries from me? That might be the reason. ;-)

True friends....

Sorry sis, to get your hopes up too high! But I just knew you´d like the femme-slash vibes in it... *grin* And speaking about those vibes, nice icon! Very nice!

You did a great work on the cuff. When that first string is done, just three more and the cuffs are done. I´m very positive we´ll have your coat done by the TH consert! :-)

That icon would be Marlene Dietrich in drag, thank you very much! YUM!

And yes, I did like the femme-slashy aspects off it all. :-) Very much so. So not a bad movie, just not... that good. ;-)

Yeah, I have high hopes off getting that coat done for the concert to. I mean, it is not impossible all off a sudden! :-D Only with my luck, it will probably be a snowstorm that day... :-P

If it´s cold, you should be able to fit a warm cardigan beneath the coat, don´t you think?
Snowstorm on the other hand... nah, not so good...

Exactly. :-P Gladly Scandinavium is indoors, but I have to get there after all. :-/ And the weather around here in March can be... unstable at its best. :-P

Sorry you didn't like it that much! Actually I've yet to see it (though I've read the book voraciously) and despair of it ever getting a release in America. But I hope I'm not disappointed!

Well, it wasn't a bad movie per say, it just wasn't worth the hassle to go by buss for an hour to Gothenburg just for a movie... :-P Eh. No. Would I rent it on DVD? Yes, I would. I would probably have gone to the movies to see it had it shown in theaters here to. But it isn't, so... :-P Still a good movie. Just not... that good. ;-)

Fair enough! Thanks for your review :D

No worries. :-D Glad you didn't bite my head off.... ;-D *grin*

;) Of course not!
