I should friends-lock this journal already... As soon as I figure out how, that is...
( work, lost in austen, spn )

till the next time

Two lovely people on f-list celebrate their birthday today - I hope you have a great day emmanette  and skywriter86  :)

( your birthday banners here :)  )

I am a fangirl. I am. ( *saving your friends' page* >> SPN  )

I am rather proud of myself. Took me about a month.... Not sure if that's a lot or not... Anyway, I feel accomplished now ;) 

If you want to have a look 100 Dean Winchester icons of Supernatural are HERE @ so_out_of_focus  .

We have a wedding aniversary this Saturday and I got my present early....



closer look...

pretty, isn't it?

We've seen Mamma Mia! today. The music is really great (go ABBA!) even though the majority of the cast obviously can't sing... 
However, I find the movie itself... really disappointing. The acting IMHO is really poor - Meryl Streep is such a great actress but she didn't manage to pull this one... Her portrayal of Donna is so unconvincing... The same unfortunately applies to Julie Walters, whom I generally adore.
The best impression was left by the male cast, I guess - Stellan and Colin, but that maybe due to the fact that they didn't spend that much time on screen. Pierce Brosnan was really ok too until he started to show up more and more.

As I said - the music's great but there maybe just a little too much of it. There are so many songs that the story itself falls apart to the point of loosing any credibility... The dialogs are really horrible.

Having said that I don't want to discourage you completely, should you happen to read this. Just don't expect too much. I obviously made that mistake.

 Yes! My season 3 DVD has been dispatched! *dances a happy dance*....

Here's the guy who really discovered the power of internet for me.... `LOL

Yet again I need to study for the banking test that I failed... I think it was May. That doesn't make me happy. Me not likey the subject.
But even worse is that I have been waiting for months now for a decision re my pay rise. I feel ignored and not at all appreciated while I really work hard and am good at my work.
On the top of that is that we'll have some guy on Sat at home making some improvements in our bathroom - really minor ones, but still... I like to have my weekend peaceful.

On the good side - OH loves Supernatural nearly as much as I do. He even says it's his favourite :D You think I should be looking forward to a pentagram-anti-possession sorta tattoo?

I just bought myself Final Cut Express 4..... I am thrilled but it's looks really scary....
I guess it's good that I don't feel too inspired at the mo, huh? LOL.  I think I may need to buy a book about this thing or something.

I got myself into watching SPN (if you haven't noticed... ) and I got really excited today with the new season 4 pics HERE. Oh, little joys of ife ;)

Apart from that looks like we will be doing some changes in the bathroom which makes me much less than happy and I need to study for work... bleeee

I would like to wish a wonderful birthday to my very special friend, flier_of_kites.
Started online and ended up IRL too. For me that's an amazing experience.
I hope you have a great day, hun!

sick off... first time ever 0.o
I don't know what it's called in English but my right ear hurts really really bad...
But apart from that it's nice to stay home :D Only now I need to decide what to watch - there are so many things I'd like to see that I will probably end up not watching anything :D

Also I am a bit worried as I need to organize a bachelorette party for this Saturday and with pretty high expactations of the bride and me being sick (oh, and the fact that I found out about the week about a week ago... ) it all doesn't look too good... :( Frankly saying I am a tad annoyed.... :-/

Oh, I am so happy it's Friday already (yeah, 's started 19 mins ago....)....
I find it really difficult to concentrate on work this week - dunno why....

Holidays were wonderful (THANK YOU, flier_of_kites) but I'd love to have one more week.... I guess.....
When I have the right mood I may post some pics here.

Anyway - I am going back to SPN now.

I am right now leaving home. Tomorrow early morning I will be at flier_of_kites '!
Yay!!!!

*dances happy dance*

I have changed my header @ so_out_of_focus
Need to find the right background yet though...

I finally watched Miss Austen Regrets yesterday evening.

I loved that movie. If any of you is not familiar with the story it starts when Jane is about 40 years old and reflects a bit on her choices while her young cousin Fanny is making hers. We get to see most of the Austen family, some of their friends.
The movie is rather slow-paced but I really liked it. There are feeling there but it's not too sentimental.
We hear about Tom Leffroy and about some other men in her life. We see Jane, the writer and Jane, the woman, who longed to be loved and who longed to stay true to herself. We also see Jane as a sister and a daughter and how her decisions influenced their lives.

It's a really beutiful story. So much truer that Becoming Jane could ever be.

I have been meaning to do so for a long time and now it's finally done - my graphic journal is up:

so_out_of_focus so_out_of_focus so_out_of_focus 
so_out_of_focus so_out_of_focus so_out_of_focus



I started it because I think sometimes I want to talk a bit more about my life here... I am not sure yet how it's going to work out but that's the general idea. 

 

I know I am one day late, but from the bottom of my heart - all the best to my special friend bonny_face!
Take care, hun!
