Did I mention I love libraries?
BOOKS!
Anybody who knows the series "A Song Of Ice And Fire" by George R. R. Martin ?
After my mother recommended them to me, I've begun reading the first book "A Game Of Thrones". I LOVE it! *_* All the wonderful characters... or not, but that's what's wonderful about them. - There really are no words to describe it.
On the subject of randomly (or not-so-randomly) picking up a book -
"Abarat" by Clive Barker, anyone? The wonderfully illustrated cover caught my eye in a bookshop. Normally I don't just buy things out of the blue like that, but it was on sale so I couldn't help myself.
I downright love the way the story is all "Woohoo weird stuff that is there for no apparent reason. MAYBE IT'S FRIENDLY!". It's so wonderfully straight-forward and whimsical.
Movies...
Me and my fellow vampire-obsessed good friend went and saw Twilight about a week ago. We had to, it was a movie about vampires
A girl in my class is a HUUUUGE fan of the books, and about 5 of the other girls have read them, and they're all "You can't see the movie and not have read the books DADGUMMIT! Go read. NAO!"
So I've kindanotreallymoreorless started reading Twilight.
*TWILIGHT SPOILER* - Or not, since it's so DAYUMN predictable all the way through.
* Mild spoiler * mild spoiler *
Anyway, o_o I can't wait to get to the part where Edward sparkles!(or BloodBob Squareface as we've named him... don't ask.
When me and my friend saw it in the cinema, we cracked up. I mean, WTF?! I don't even think it was supposed to be funny, but it was so god damn ridiculous and un-expected, we couldn't help ourselves.
Actually, that scene, along with some others *cough baseballinathunderstorm cough* has made me kinda despondent to reading the book. Stephenie Meyer sounds like she's raping the vampire-genre.
It could be so much fun, though. XD
Hopefully the book(s) will clear up a thing or two. I hope...
*END TWILIGHT SPOILER*
OOH! And last night I went to the cinema with another of my bestest-buddies-ever and saw The curious case of Benjamin Button.
And very thought-provoking on how you view your life and growing old and living your life and seizing the day and all that deep philosophical stuff...
Um yeah. Or as I said:
Aaaaand... MUSIC!!
I like Danish Artists even if they don't sing in Danish.
Aura, anyone? Or Tina Dico?
Also, there's a French singer who sounds kinda like Beyoncé, only better. And in French
Randomness because it's 00:20 and because I'm LAME
I'm planning on taking up my old hobby, origami, again.
... That line above was so odd.
Oh god, I can't believe I'm actually writing all this. are you still reading? WHOA! You have a life to live! So do I! Good bye!
That RHYMED! 8D

P.S. if anyone who reads this, know these books/movies/musicians and love them as much as I do, come join me in the wonderful world of fantasy and escapism
