Ninjas STILL can't catch you if you're on fire

First of all:, MY WEEKEND WAS GREAT and I am loath to see it over. Oh life in town and being ensconced in a cushy serviced apartment, leaving only to eat, shop and meet friends. ACH HOW BRILL. Got to see Ginger 'n Ploy, Migel and Bell scattered throughout Friday til Sunday, and always had dinner with Andy and Ma (+/- other friends and family), so I was actually pretty active in the social area. Haah. Talking with Bell again was especially lovely, and we got to trade internship stories (obvs. due to her hi-so-ness she had more classy things to do than me, but even she had the same issues with the ....special way some of the Thai interns always act, so it was a relief that it was not ALL IN MY HEAD lolol).
Super frustrating raaagh of Missed Opportunities is the following though: Bell had got to act as an interpreter for the foreign celebs who came to the events that the Event PR company she interned at organized-- she got to assist Verne Troyer (MINI MEEEE!), amongst others! Now there would be the Bangkok Film Festival coming up soon, starting on the 26th of September, with apparent guests being Jason Statham, Vin Diesel, and most relevant to my interests: RUPERT GRINT (I have no idea why they would be coming to BKK, but gj Film Fest organizers if they managed to score these dudes!). Since Bell would be caught up in her other internship, she couldn't jump in, but would have been able to GET ME AN IN TO WORK AS AN INTERPRETER FOR THEM. But uh, alas and alack, my flight back is on the fucking TWENTY-FIFTH. Auuuuuugh I could have quite possibly interacted with Rupert Grint!!1 Or even just Jason Statham and Vin Diesel would have been massively cool enough, ahhh. Mom was like "rebook your flight then!" but I really can't because I actually need to be back a bit earlier to handle the organisatorial shite for the next semester. BAWWW Rupert, I hope they find some more than half-way competent person to help youuuu.

NOW (mid morning): I am typing this entry from work at the new workstation on the lower floor that I have been "banished" down to, lolol new staff upstairs has apparently made in necessary, spacewise, to shove off unimportant schmucks like me downstairs ahhh I have already ran up and down the stairs 5 times and it is only been an hour and a half since the workday started. I look forward to my toned legs after I finish interning?? All the other interns are now GONE, leaving me the sole survivor (and probable candidate to do their shit work now, fuckerolaaaa). Met and talked to another new intern today though, but she's in a totally different department, le sigh. Had those CREEPY as fuck "Big-Eye" contact lenses on though ffffff I have such difficulties holding eye contact with these people ahh shudder shudder.

NOW (late afternoon): I have been sitting up here in the PR floor again. To be on stand-by for things to do lolol so much for staying downstairs. Nothing's really come up yet that has to be done by today, and I sure as hell hope I can leave at six. Am just still filled with momentary irrational rage-- well okay, not rage but maybe STRONG IRRITATION that I am being held to the two months I agreed to in the first place lol. I want to leave earlyyyyyyyyyyyy and okay, it's just me acutely feeling the shortage of time left if I stop on the 8th and have to fly back on the 25th of September already. I want an entire month of chillaxing instead, why won't the world bend to my whims wah wahh etc etc.

ACTUALLY NOW (eveninggg): *COPY PASTE*

MY FEEBLE HUMAN MIND CAN'T CONCENTRATE ON ANYTHING for more that half an hour at a time, all attempts to improve to the contrary :(( At the very least the one thing I am good at upholding is waking up at 8-9AM every day. I mean, I then fritter the day away nonetheless, but at least I have the delusion that the day lasts longer and I technically would have time to Get Things Done. Saturday evening, and I'll already be in a plane to Bangkok! I am super excited, but oh maaaaaaaan is there ever still a boatload of things to do and such little time to do them.

Tomorrow I will be heading over to Miss Olga's place, where I will be abusing her scanner (IF I HAD THOUGHT TO ASK EARLIER THIS COULD HAVE ALL BEEN SO MUCH EASIER lol faiiiil, self) and bothering her with my BAKK2 interview questions. Which I still need to polish a bit. Hooo. I think I have never had a lead in to my flights back home that weren't full of rushed OMGOMGUNISHITOMGOMG-ness.

But! That aside, have some links that have been pretty damn awesome and entertaining:

SPN BIGBANG-ERY
__ THIS CREEPYCOOL SPN vid by proofpudding. I've loved all of her work so far, and was thus quite interested to see this vid she made for her spn_j2_bigbang writer's fic and uh. Who knew that the Dandy Warhol's made such creepy music, too?? Lovely short vid that sets a mood up quuuite well.

__ THE COLORS IN THESE PICS, GAAAH by griseldajane. One of the BB art entries that is probably one of my favorites that I have seen so far. The sketchy lines + rough yet clearly thought through coloring are some of the things I wish I could emulate so much! But uh, I apparently like my solid lines + neat colors too much whoops. NEVERTHELESS, I just love this. The realism as well, ahh.

__ MMMH MANIPS by evenindeath. To round off the types of art mentioned here lol. This was just so breathtaking in how clean and smooth everything was formed together to make something new (since the majority of the art in this challenge IS CG/manip'd after all). And so creative, I love some of the images created here.

I'm too lazy to rec any fic, but I have basically been reading the ones from authors I recognize from other fic when I can squeeze the time in between Not Thinking of Uni, and what I've read has been pretty brill so far. And still so much to go, ahhh, BB is truly an embarrassment of fic riches ♥

OTHER FIC AND ETC:
Really good KHR fic about the girls in the Mafiaaaa by lysapadin. I always thought Kyouko and Haru got the short end of the stick in Reborn, and this fic fleshes out what they could be doing in the future of the series most excellently. The rest of this author's fic is also pretty great-- I enjoyed the one with Hibari and the constant time loop too lol it is basically a great explanation for the current ??? plot going on. Oh why do all the shounen series have to end up as such draaaaaaaaaaaaaagtastic fight scene after fight scene things?? :(

OH WAIT I HAVE A SPN FIC REC AFTER ALL by rivkat. SO this is basically what I never knew I wanted re: SPN and MBV coming together. OH TOM HANNIGER YOU POOR SOD. Where is the fic with Tom/Whatever Jared's character in F13 was called?? It must exist, right?

OH THIS DICTIONARY ...so perfect, asfkjhjkafsh ♥

.........maaaaaaaaaan, it is already past 12 and I haven't gotten my quote-typeage for uni done yet fff so much for that today. SERIOUSLY, WHERE IS MY DAMN CONCENTRATION D:

A FIRST ATTEMPT. 4:12 minutes of random chattering, using the word fantastic three times to describe fashion and dresses in less than two minutes (WHOOPS), some Thai (my a-accent ._.) and me actually using the words WUNDERBAR and SCHÖN far too many times in my German rambling. ALSO I NEARLY STUMBLE OVER THE WORD 'INTERAGIEREN' d'ohhh. I was magically not that vulgar for my standards though, and no internet acronyms were abused in this audio recording. SHOCKING, I KNOW. Normally I would say I don't have such a weird, halting cadence though-- even if apparently my voice levels DO go UUUUP and down lol. Sorry for the large file, converting it to mp3. from Audacity involved downloading weird fiddly bits and the wav. option went the easiest.

Here is the S.Oliver's website, by the by!

SO UH, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK LOLOL 8Db


ALSO: I couldn't wait and watched a crappy camrip version of Up yesterday, AND BASICALLY BAWLED MY WAY THROUGH THE ENTIRE MOVIE. SO BEAUTIFUL AND TOUCHING AND HILARIOUS AND WONDERFUL, holy shiny balloons and dodos! The talking dogs (EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE forever)! Russel and Carl! CARL AND ELLIE'S EPIC LOVE, oh my god, I could tear up just thinking about that opening sequence. MY HEAAAART. I need to watch this again in theaters and I will spring the cash for the original DVD when it comes out. Stunning work, and I think my utter favorite from Pixar now. AHHH ♥

I really should have my packing done right now, but WHOOPS *shrugs*. Still psyched about getting to visit my dearest darling ~*Carmen*~'s home base of NORDDEUTSCHLAAAAND for a week! Oldenburg! Hamburg! Hannover! WOOO ♥ We're even gonna constantly be having internet access, though I guess my participation in our FB and all other SPAM SESSIONS will go down drastically lololol. And then I'll be back in Vienna for a few days, before DAD, SUE AND AE are here!! and it's off to Krimml to celebrate my Opa's 80th birthday... During which I will supposedly have to finish nearly all of my uni work and will need constant internet. Oh that is not gonna be fun to have to wrangle from Silvia again, pre-emptive waaargh!

Our YAY!BAKK1 1-er dinner ended up not being delicious Lamb 'n more at the Stiegl Ambulanz because of a damn geschlossene Gesellschaft (FFFFF), but we decided to go for a real detour and dine at DOTS- Experimental Sushi at the Mariahilf instead. Preeetty damn expensive (we basically ended up paying 20€ per person-- they have 5€ Gedeckkosten!! WTF), but a really swank place and quite okay food. Though in my opinion their sushi rice was soggy, too sweet and the nori on my salmon maki wasn't crisp. I liked how they decorate their ~famous~ experimental sushi though, Carmen had some cute 'Geisha Lips' (Tuna+flying fish roe on top of a roll with avocado, surimi and something else) and my 'Goldfish nigiri' were little prawn nigiri sushi with an extra wedge of avocado shoved in and little googly eyes made from ....something. I can't remember. Still: adorable! And then we had some gelato on the walk down the Mariahilf-- blueberry, walnut and chestnut for meeee ♥

IN CONCLUSION, some links and additional awesome for you guys:
A PRETTY DARN FANTASTIC PICSPAM OF THE J2 PANEL AT THAT RECENT SPN CON <33
PART TWO ...one thing I gotta say re: SPN fandom is that I am hearing things from the pathetic batshit side about A)the massive and irrational Danneel hate that is existing amongst some people (some idiot apparently tried to get her 'thrown out of the con because that was negatively affecting her Jensen-squee' WTF WTF) and B)some deluded fangirl thinking it's a GOOD IDEA?? to give Misha a collection of slash fic??. Jesus christ SPN fandom, this is why you can't have NICE THINGS :||

MY LITTLE PONY MODS! ...remember to scroll past the first admittedly INSANELY ALARMING first one, the rest are pretty darn awesome :DDb

PS IS THIS PIC PRECIOUS, OR THE MOST PRECIOUS PIC EVER?? GOD, HOW CAN THEY BE SO ADORABLE UGH :DDD

God, has not getting all that much sleep yesterday been ever so worth it. Had an absolutely fabulous time last night spamming away on FB with ♥mah ladies♥ (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ALL ARE :DD), though I am sorry I started lagging after a while, as my ultimate dude partner in crime and best photobuddy EVERRR Migel started into the fray too, and I got distracted uploading an album of our ~greatest photo hits~ together. WHOEVER LOOKS AT IT, YOU KNOW IT IN YOUR HEARTS TO BE BRILLIANT ;D Man, if he and I ever live in the same country at the same time again, it is going to be so damn EPIC. Our summer sessions these past few years have been awesome enough!

And speaking of spam and all things RBR-related, behind the cut I present to you a piece of POP CULTURE that I now own. Mwahahaha!
( A WINNER IS ME?? )

ALSO, apple_scruffer: I FINALLY GOT YOUR POSTCARD! It is radiating Americanness and phallicness right next to my printer at them moment, thank you so much bb!

ALSO ALSO, a final link for you guys: THE MOST PURPLE PROSE IN THE WORLDDDD. Just read it. The mind, IT BOGGLE AND CANNOT DEAL XDD

LASTLY, because that 'final link' was a filthy lie, something that made the part of me that secretly still loves Naruto and is waiting for it to get better-- THE SHIPPU! KONOHA GAKUEN DEN! SPECIAL, by which they mean, NARUTO HIGHSCHOOL AU!!!!! I shit you not, it is glorious fanservice supreme, and I got such a kick of seeing the characters all school-ified! LEE AS A SOCCER PLAYER! Naruto as a gangstaaaa! Kakashi and his mask! BUT THE SAND SIBLINGS TAKE THE FUCKING CAKE. Fantasticccc ♥

Today is the first time since about half year that I have actually engaged in strenuous physical activity. After our day full of errands, Ma dragged me to our housing community/mooban's gym and I proceeded to wheeze my way through a half hour of the cardio machines on middle setting. IT FELT LIKE I WAS ABOUT TO DIIIIIE AFTERWARDS, lol I am so out of shape >_>;; (aaaand we're gonna try for longer tomorrow! Ahhh)

This suddenly willingness to be dragged to vaguely sportive activities on my side was perhaaaaaps prompted a bit by what happened at the hospital the last time we were there for some of Ma's check-ups. There was this fitness promo stand that was offering free blood pressure and body fat percentage measurements, and yours truly, masochist that I am went for a go of the latter option. It's amazing what these newfangled weight things can measure now, I got this whole barrage of data out of it. APPARENTLY, at 176cms/72kgs (5'8/158lbs) I am still in a normal weight range, but for my age class I am officially a "fatty" with my body fat percentage being a whopping 32,4% (over 30% pushes you over that mark, it seems. DAMN THE JUNK IN MY TRUNK). Lolllll the poor guy explaining the data to me was all trying his best to be ~tactful~ and ~optimistic~ about what I could do to change and I was just standing there cracking up because, wow, it sure is something to see that number black on white. But I also have a very good to extremely high bone density and an average muscle mass. Which would end the flood of data on a positive note, but nooo, I then got the memo that I apparently have the metabolism of a 30 year old, too XDD (my first reaction to that was basically 'WTF HOW CAN THEY MEASURE THIS BY ME STANDING ON SOME METAL BITS ON A SCALE?? XDD)


AH WELL, MUST TRY TO VAGUELY TOUGHEN UP*. Summer in Vienna is approaching! I am friends with Carmen and Hazel, both tiny and petite ladies! I do not want to look like their giant beached whale friend on our pictures! FIGHT FIGHT etc etc 8DD


*it seems that Carmen is going to sign me up for beginner's rock climbing classes with her at the USI anyhow?? Oh boyyyy~~

I will probably have a headache tomorrow, boo! Damn my grown even weaker alc tolerance. Two fucking cocktails (Mango Daiquiri and a Banana Colada) and I was completely red and had a pulse rate of OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAND. At least walking back to the U-bahn in the cold with Carmen was refreshing! But what fun and vaguely versaut convos were had at the Chillout Lounge, that okaaay partly were due to the cocktail's influence XDD. Hanging with Carmen really always is tremendous fun, one would think that we would eventually reach a point where we get sick of each other, but nope! Still awesomesauce all round ♥ILU MY UNI BFF♥

But today was a resounding failure uni-wise again, what with the houuuuuurs I spent at brunch at Michelle and Eli's, though I was heartily rewarded with homemade CREPES. With Grand Marnier mixed in the batter. SO DELICIOUS and I even got a few to take home, OM NOM NOM. Must wake up at 9AM tomorrow and get my shit together *sighhhh*.

And now you may all have a jarring segue to FANNISH HAPPY MAKING THINGS:
♥ MY 'I AM AMERICA (AND SO CAN YOU!) AUDIO CD HAS ARRIVED AND IS WAITING FOR ME IN THALIA. NEXT SATURDAY BB, YOU SHALL BE ~MINE~

♥ THIS GORGEOUS TAMAKI PIC that xinester drew for me. LOOK AT HIS FAAAAAACE :DD

♥ THIS SPN VID. There is no streaming link, but believe me when I say it is totally worth the download. The relationship between Dean and Mary Winchester, the parallels of their story and just basically a really tightly and well-edited piece of work that punches you in the gut. MY FEELINGS WHILE VIEWING THIS VID IN EMOTICONS: DDDD: AWW MAN DDD:

ALSO because I personally have been crazy obsessed about the song ever since my first viewing of the vid-- Sage Francis- "Sea Lion". LISTEN TO IT IT IS SO GRRRREAT *_*

...or at least it was for about two hours before it all melted and became the disgusting grey, lumpy GATSCH/slush that all city-dwellers in places that experience winter know and hate. MY BOOTS, THEY ARE CONSTANTLY WET AND GROSS :( At least I have handycam pics of when it was still pretty though!

Today was a chock-full uni day, and I am at least pleased to note that at least SOME of my uni things are going well. I might even get a 1 in PR-AT! Eee. But what I'm looking forward to is our final assignment in Werb-AT-- our prof apparently gave all of us a blanket 3er, and if we want to get a better grade, we're supposed to hand in either an A4 page of copy or some graphics that show a advertorial campaign explaining WHY he should give us that top 1er grade :DD I have a bunch of ideas already, but we'll see how they look on paper, because I have the sliiiight feeling that my prelim concepts are not so much advertising as they are 'almost parodist examples of shameless self-promotion' 8DD. Still: coolest assignment everrr! And to think we were wondering how he'd grade us, as it is always very evident that even after one semester, he has no idea who over half the people in our course are.

Off to watch ~DANIEL CRAIG~ on yesterday's The Daily Show, woo! "He is very handsome." WHY YES I DO AGREE WITH YOU ON THAT, JON ♥

I should actually be channeling all this typing for uni, but AH WELL :DD
