And god, I do hate it actually. It makes me feel stupidly emotional and it makes me want so badly and because I have almost zero people skillz I can never be sure that anything means anything at all. So.
Also I am way behind on NaNoWriMo and I really should be doing my math homework.
- Music:Rise Against - Savior
Not to mention calculus is kicking my butt. But then I think it's admirable that I can even understand what they want from me, but nooo we have to solve the questions as well.
I'm considered going to the strike tomorrow because I didn't do my homework and the guy said it would be okay if handed it in later but I don't think that is the purpose of the strike. And then I would have to go and listen people complain about how bad the school system is and how we need a REVOLUTION! So I think I'll take class over that.
Mario Party is awesome and I love Yoshi. And Boo. Boo's victory dance is so cute. Also, I have officially adopted the PS2 that my siblings no longer want, but that also means I am now in the possession of High School Musical Sing Along! and that could get seriously embarrassing.

Cause for laughter and oh so true. No for real, I was think about this the other day. Actually I was listening to a song and...well it doesn't translate well into English but the line was something like 'The world is coming at its end'.
And then I started thinking about where exactly, in what aspect, are we worse of today than we were in the past? I really couldn't think of anything. Not to say that the present is perfect but its definitely better than anything before as far as measurable things like discrimination, equality, fairness, health and such go.
Also, today in Calculus 1:
"Someone give me a number. Any number 1, 2, 3, 200, 3 million..."
"42"
"42 is an awesome number. Okay, so let M equal 42..."
Hitchhiker's guide references make my day.
On that note, I finished And Another Thing... and I have to say, I quite liked it. it wasn't Adams of course (nothing is Adams) but it was funny and there were some really great lines in there and Zaphod was acting like a total idiot so...I'm only disappointed that Marvin didn't show up.

I also I went to a Ball this weekend. The Red Baron Night 2009, which is actually a military ball aaaaand it was a lot of fun. But the directions to getting home when Su and I decided to go at two o'clock in the morning were really messed up. As in 'Go right, then left, then keep going until you see the brothel and turn right just before it...'
Anyway, gotta keep going, gotta keep writing. Over and out.
- Music:YuGiOh The Abridged Series
...To be fair I did actually try to write my other story but it was just really hard going and the first person perspective totally didn't do and I just...didn't feel the flow. And now I'm almost as far with Moitin as I was with the other story and I only started today. But yeah, I'm totally not going to make the word count for today, because I'd have to write 3000 more words I do kind of want to sleep, thank you very much.
48899 Words to go.

At first he won't be willing to give up the treasure 'cause he'll be like 'hell no, this is mine' but later when he finds out why it is important he would totally give it to them if they would leave him alone. Unfortunately by now they also want to kill him. So he flees.
On his flight he will meet several people: Rubella Redress, famous prostitute with ruby skin who is currently on vacation (he doesn't recognize her and she gets very angry about this), a fuzzy, floating, telepathically communicating field journalist/author trying to get inspired for its newest story and Tier, a young, spoiled guy who is on his way home from boarding school and basically gets kidnapped because he has a fast and powerful spaceship and a credit card with almost no limit. He joins them on their quest as a chance to rebel against his parents. He's also Moitin's love interest. And has green hair.
But I am not throwing out my other NaNo, oh no I'm not (Goddammit I've been saving that story for a YEAR so I could write it for NaNo and three days before you give me a different plot??? Hell no!)

Still doesn't it sound like a plan? Isn't it awesome? And just who the hell is Moitin can Lumda anyway?
I think it would be a loner treasure hunter who travels through space with his bunny and hunts treasures and he accidentally picks up something that is rather important and gets hunted for it. How the hell the rest fits in there I don't even know yet/ But there must be slash. Because slash fills the world with joy.

Needless to say I could not resist and now own the book. Unfortunately I have a long to-read list but I think I just moved it to the top. I just have to finish Godslayer but I should be able to finish by tomorrow and then I will reeeeeeeeeeeead it. *nods happily*
By the way, the Baron likes to cross-dress. He was climbing into the fluffy pink dress that is part of Suzanne's Halloween costume. But then he's castrated so maybe his gender identity is messed up. Who knows?
- Music:Star Trek Episode 8 - Miri
But he came off the stage and into the audience and he wasn't wearing shirt and full of glitter (also a Johnny Depp style beard. No good, my dear) and I was jumping around and singing like a crazy person and now my leg hurts. But it was so awesome. I had so much fun!
And Daily Light Saving Time? We changed all the clocks in the house except the alarm clock. Which means, of course, that we woke up an hour early today. And though we checked the clock several times we somehow managed to look only at the minute hand and not realize that we were an hour early. We weren't the only ones though...
In other news, the Baron is still cute and likes it very much we he, Suza and I sit on the couch and watch Star Trek together.

Actually, there is no doom. There's just a kitty.
Suza and I picked one up from the shelter today and, well he's so adorable! We'd actually picked out two cats we wanted to look at over the internet but they were both gone by today so we just looked around and in the end it was the choice between him and another cat but the other cat was sick and needs a special diet which costs a crapload of money, not to mention he was used to havinga garden we can't offer that.
But now we have a cat and he's cuuute. He was called Tom but we've renamed him The Baron. He might end up as Tom The Baron.
Also, he's...well not exactly fat but a big cat. And he's very cuddly and I love him.( The Baron and moi in the Kitchen )
Yeah, I love him.

I'm currently updating my fanart collection with D. Gray Man fanart. LavixKandaxAllen? In any possible combination of two?
Last year I had a brilliant idea. It was Suza's eighteenth birthday and since I wanted to tease her a bit I decided I would give her something connected to yaoi and then I came up with the idea of making a calender filled with yaoi fanart. Said and done. The calender now hangs in our kitchen and we have to be very careful to remove it when someone comes over lest we accidentally out ourselves.
But now that the year ending we have to make a new calender, a bigger one this time. And so we're currently hunting through the fanart to find The Perfect Pictures. We have a small problem though...we don't own a printer. Ehehehe, this will be resolved somehow. We are determined.
Seriously though, that calander is a piece of therapy. If I'm having a shit day I just take it off the wall and flip through it and I feel better. Fanficiton often has the same effect but fanart just works more quickly. It's like an instant cheer up drug and that's probably one of the reasons I love it so much.

Yep, I'm still fangirling about D. Gray Man. Not likely to stop anytime soon either. They are so unbelievably cute.
So today was finally the first day of University and, well it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. To be fair, I'm still in the Orientation Week, so we're looking around campus and getting to meet each other.There are around 250 people getting the same degree as I am (Bachelor of Science in Verkehrswesen) but we got split up into different groups so I was mostly hanging around with the same thirty people. Of which six wer female, including me (see this is what you get for choosing an engineering degree). But some of them were pretty cute XD
Also, Berlin is the only city I can think of where this would happen:
The Kreuzberg (a hill) in the part Kreuzberg of Berlin produces a wine and, though it is not officially recognized as a vineyard-thingy, decided to vote for the Kreuzberger Wine Queen. Everyone was allowed to try out, no matter what gender or sexuality. Eight put their names forward, five showed up:
one German-Vietnamese woman, one American woman, one gay dad, one guy wearing a dress and one woman who used to be a man.
They had to carry wineglasses, waltz and hold a speech about 'diversity', ecologically and socially.
They guy wearing a dress, who I think was also gay, won. He is now the official Kreuzberger Wine Queen. He gets to do official appearances and everything and he received a certificate for 200 Euro, which he said he is going to use to buy himself high heels.
Power to you. ^^
I read about this in the newspaper and I just had to imagine how scandalized people would almost anywhere else that I can think of. And it made me laugh.
On another note the characters of D. Gray Man are the cutest fucking thing since...I don't know, tiny? They make me go 'squeee' in fangirly glee. And I love Lavi/Rabi. Yes I do.

The other day Suza and I were talking about Kougaji. The way everyone's like 'he's such a momma's boy' because of his obsession with freeing his mother and his complete willingness to abandon everything in order to save her.
That was my first reaction too. Thinking: 'well this is going a little bit overboard. He's willing to do anything to save her.' But then you know, we talked about it. And about our own mothers and how far we would be willing to go to save them.
Because I love my mother. Not just my mother, all of my family and not too few of my friends. They're some of the most important people in my life and yeah, to save them I would do almost anything. Definitely everything Kougaiji did. So taken like that Kougaiji's position seems less extreme.
My math teacher (who was big on philosophy) once said that there are political people and there are family people, so people who care about the world, and people who care about the people around them. (Not that political people wouldn't care about the people around them. Just the priorities are different) and I know that I am absolutely more a family person. I don't really care much about the world at large.
Also, the new Rammstein song? Sexual innuendos like whoa. XD

I have a new Umbrella. He's awesome. He has a head on top and the grip is two feet. I love him! And I have named him Joseph, Sepp for short. Somehow I seem to be surrounded by inanimte male objects. That probably tells you something about me right there.
I'm so excited about October and November. I think it's going to be great. October has the All American Rejects and the MMC, an actual convention in Berlin. It's tiny compared to something like Sakura Con, there probably won't be much more than a thousand people there, but I am so happy about it!!!
And November has NaNoWriMo, which I look forward to all year, specially since the idea for what I was going to write this year came to me shortly after last years NaNoWriMo ended. I am looking forward to this. All of it.

Aaaah, Coalition Time. CDU and FDP. Black and Yellow. That was not my vote but I guess we won't die from it.
I'm all alone here in the apartment. Just with my dog, who I'm taking care of for the week. Nico, yes I love you, even if you do lick my face at six o'clock in the morning. But I am locking you out of my room tonight.So the Sundering-Duology is made of awesome and I am going to start reading D. Gray Man scans now. Wish me luck.

One: Pokemon Colleseum. Suza's Hero's name is Seth and he is a total bitch. More specifically he is The Bitch of the female character following him around (Lou for us). Seriously, he's supposed to be badass and everything, coming from some evil team, the worst type of person, someone who betrayed his people, facial tattoo and now he has Miss Red-Head-with-Pigtails following him and does whatever she says. Therefor, he is clearly her bitch. Even the other characters know it, commenting on what a wimp he is. And Willy (Wally?) is totally in love with him and everyone hits on him. We're still working out whether Lou pimps him out or not.
Link, from Zelda: Wind Waker, on the other had, is totally badass. Runs around chopping up flowers and innocent trees, breaking into people's houses and stealing their money, not to mention breaking their vases, freeing crazy people from prison...he just oozes the badass-ocity.
Three: Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. I'm playing and it's fun. Question: Is it In Character for Axel to be totally cynical about everything, yet still have vast rêserves of knowledge at hand, which he spouts to prove why he doesn't believe in anything?
On the topic of voting: today was election day in Germany. The political system here is kind of complicated, sufficient to say that we have A LOT od political parties (CDU; FDP; SPD; NPD; Die Greunen, Die Linken, Die Violetten, Die Piraten...I think twenty were up for election today) and to get a majority they have to build coalitions. New up tomorrow.
And when I went to vote, after wards I accidentally threw my ID card in the trash. Haha. Not funny. Luckily I realized it and went back and got it out before it was too late. (I was holding it together with the stupid paper, okay? So I threw them both in the trash. I'm lucky I didn't put it in with the votes).
On another note, I FUCKING HATE NETBOOKS THE KEYBOARDS ARE TOO FUCKING SMALL: *cough, cough* I'm on my sister's netbook and it's not working for me.

Not that I really feel our society is all that chauvinistic. But the line came to me yesterday when Suza and I had to put fuzzy thingies under the furniture so they wouldn't scratch up the floor and we had to lift the table and beds and couches by ourselves. So.
Aaaah, why won't the retarded people at the Amt answer their phones? I kind of need to know what to bring when I change my address.And elections on Sunday. I know who I won't vote for. CDU, FDP, SPD, NPD, Die Gruenen, Die Violetten, Die Linken...so that leaves? Not much.

So, why can so many sexual innuendos be made while you're trying to build something?
See Suza and I were screwing- HA! I know what you just thought! - together the cabinets and my new chair and everything we said could somehow be turned into an innuendo. It led to hysterical laughter, because we're immature like that but it went on forever. There were a lot of innuendos.
So I am now officially moved. I've spent the first night here and the whole day unpacking boxes aaaaaaaaaaand we bought a GameCube. Yes, a motherfucking GameCube. The old thing. Isn't it awesome? We also have two games: Pokemon Colosseum and Zelda. And I'm looking into getting Mario Super Smash Bros and Mario Party. The happy.
My sister is spending the night here and tomorrow I visit my family and I have to steal coat-hangers. Yup.

Ha! My mother bought my Banewrecker and Godslayer. And I didn't even ask for them. See my brother had to order a book on Amazon and since you get free shipping at 20 Euro she wanted to buy more books. (Yes, yes, I know what Avery says about the magical number 0. But these books are not in vain. I would have bought them anyway at some point)
My room is a mess. I have five boxes packed and three bags full of books and I'm still not quite done. And now everything is lying around all over the place. Oh the joy.
So, yeah. Still lots of stuff to do but bit by bit its organizing itself out.
