Life in outer space and in my office

Just a short shout out to say I'm alive (so might also be the case on the mysterious planet with only a number for name. Calling outer space...? ) and well, only working like mad.

Oh, and visit lillyallenmusic.com and listen to the mixed tapes. Brilliant workmusic!

Oh, and the Harry Potter-trailer? What a let down! Does this mean I'm starting to get too old for this?

Anywho, moving on with the paperwork. : )

Everybody loves good neighbours...

I hate my neighbours. Honestly. With a passion. I don't mind noise but I mind it when it's 3.30 in the morning. I also mind when they listen to best of 80s rock on full blast Sunday mornings... For some reason they've been extremely active all weekend and it's been driving me nuts. Anywho. I hope that will change now since I've talked to my landlord about it. *keeps fingers crossed enthusiastically*

The third and final Pirates of the Carribean is due May 25th. Woho! See the trailer below. I see piracy and Hong Kong-action ahead.



I've spent the weekend head down, feet up, watching the Lord of the Rings-movies. Partly with cast commentaries. Bernard Hill is one funny person. His comment when Éomer throws his spear into the Oliphantguy he says something along the lines of 'that is some Olympic standard javelin chuckin' that is'. Too funny. Although Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens are funny when they ask Peter Jackson to explain who the bloke on the left is in a scene where a body-double has replaced one of the cast in a lineup-shot and someone forgot to put the cast-persons head on the body-double person. It may not sound funny in writing but if you haven't listened to the commentaries on the extended versions, do it now!

Happy Anniversary!

I just realised that I've been working at the University exactly 1 year today. Happy 1-year anniversary! That deserves another post for the day. : ) It's kind of strange that it's also my last day in the office. Come tuesday I'll be stationed full-time in the new office. What can I say, there have been ups and downs, moments I've wanted to kill people, cry some, yell a bit, laugh my a** off, sleep etc and I've used the 'huh?!'-look more than usual. Even for my standards since people who know me know it frequents my face more than it does normal people. In the end I'm glad I came here and I'd like to stay a while longer, if they'll let me. At least it hasn't been boring! ; )

Happy Easter!

A bit too much? No?

Easter is one of those holidays that just sort of loose their glow when you're about 15 and easter eggs aren't enough to get you going anymore. Still, it's a nice holiday. Simply for being a holiday. Funnily enough easter has become more of a religious holiday with me. Strange, since I'm not particularly a religious person. Still, it's a colourful holiday. You can't argue with that.

I'm liking Sony more and more. There may be a lot you can say to their disadvantage but they've got one thing right. They're encouraging people to view their artists' videos and, lo and behold, to share them on your blogs. Well, who am I to argue with that. I know it's easter and yellow and stuff but my choice for today is Wintersong by Sarah McLachlan. Why be predictable and in tune? ; )


Play Sarah McLachlan’s “Wintersong”

Happy Easter! I'll spend the weekend relaxing, biking (indoors and outdoors...), and enjoying good food. :)
