rambling on
2002-07-24
evening!
isn't it soooo pretty? well, actually, i find the peugeot 206 even prettier (especially in ice blue) but it's just that "beetle feeling" and stuff... and out current car is a peugeot and we've had sooo many problems with it. it was really expensive to get it fixed because those damn french cars need special tools and blah.
i can't believe i am rambling about cars. i sound like a guy. which is kinda ironic because i don't know the first thing about cars. i just go by the looks. my mom constantly goes like "but think of the safety...and the technical stuff..." and i go like "yes, that car might be pretty safe and all but...MOM, look at its colour...euw" i never really understood why you can't go by the colour anyway. i mean, i understand that you shouldn't drive a pile of shit because it has a nice colour. but i mean, you can exclude a few colours that you don't want, can't you? and i mean, there are sooo many cars out there (used ones especially) that getting the colour you want shouldn't be a problem. especially with a "normal" colour like black. if it was neon pink with purple and orange stars and little yellow dots, it might be a problem...but a simple black car?! and if you don't wait til the last minute you won't have to buy a car in a hurry and you can choose a colour. sorry but it just annoys me to always hear stuff like "yeah, it's not a car i like but i couldn't find anything else..." how stupid. there are more cars than people in the world and you can't find one you like? o.O
anyway, apart from getting a new car, i also got a new keyboard which scares me. it's one of those hightech-thingies. it's supposed to be an internet keyboard and it has all those buttons saying "shopping" and "private sites". i didn't dare install the software yet, so the buttons don't really do anything. i'm not sure if i want to know what happens after i installed it. i dunno if i really need such buttons. oh, except for one button which is the scariest one. i pushed it and my screen went black and my comp went into stand-by mode which was a shock because the button doesn't say anything. i could aswell have set off some missiles with it or so... o.O
i just did a really mean thing: i through sabrina's hamsters out of the room. they were just annoying me to death. i don't think i've ever had such a noisy pet in my life. i wonder how they can be still alive. i mean, if i was sabrina i would have put them in the microwave already. and i'm definitely not an enti-pets person. they were really...whoa! i mean, you couldn't even make them stop. if my hamsters are too noisy, i just move my hands over the cage and they think it's an eagle that wants to eat them and hide and that teaches them to annoy me. sabrina's hamsters don't care at all. i could be an eagle or an evil t-rex or a bomb or whatever. who cares? they just keep on scratching on the wall (for whatever reasons)
oh, through all this rambling i had almost forgotten to mention that maja has left today. i don't really like good-byes but this one was half as bad as i thought it would be. i think it would have been worse if she had gone straight back to munich where she has no comp. but instead she went to her parent's place so we'll be able to talk on the net for a while. ok, there are always phones. but i dunno...comp connections don't really give me as much of a feeling of being apart as phones do. i dunno why and i don't want to analyze this because it would only be another proof of what a sad little person i am.
gawd, i'm sooo not concentrated tonight. i am doing 239723 things while writing this entry. i sent approximately 10 e-mails, i uploaded some images to my webspace, i checked tv programme websites for possible placebo appearances, i posted on several message boards... *shakes head* it's also taken me over an hour to write this entry, now. ok, it is fairly long already, so at least i didn't take an hour to write three sentences. but probably i've made lors of typos and grammar mistakes.
i also spend some money on another computer game after all. i'm such a geek. but i just luv all sims-kind of games. it's called "dino island" and you can build your own dino theme park. it just sounded cool to me and like a nice change from all those "build your own city" and "build your own holiday island" games. and it only cost �25 so that's ok. yeah right, as if i wasn't spending enough time on this comp *laughs*
anyway, i am rambling on about too many pointless things right now. i think i'm gonna go to bed. 1.30am is a good time to do so, i suppose. maybe i am also gonna watch my new manics dvd (which i got yesterday). but i wanna be up before 12pm tomorrow because i am expecting to get the new silver rocket issue any day now. gawd, i'm such a dork. someone kill me, please! haha.
ps: i just created another diaryring. it's for an amaaaazing german band called donots and i suggest you either go here and join (if you know them) OR you go here and have a look at the tag first OR (if you don't know them - which is a sin) you go here and check them out! :p
i am soooo so so so so happy today. well, maybe a so less but i am really happy. as we all know... err...no, actually we don't know because i've never seriously mentioned it (i think) so let me start again...
i've always wanted to have a beetle (the new one) as a car. well, not always since it only exists for 2 or 3 years now. but ever since i saw it for the first time, i wanted one. but it looked like by the end of this year (which is when i'll have to go and have a look for my own car) i wouldn't be able to afford it because they start at �7000something and i only have �5000something on my account...- a few �'s which i'll need for living. :p but today, my grandpa told my mom that he'd give us both �5000 as soon as we're gonna buy new cars. that means i'll have �10000 (or a bit more...depending on how much i'm gonna spend of the money i'm earning soon) and i'll be able to afford a beetle. yeeeey. i was already pretty sad because i wanted my first own car to be a beetle and it was one of those dreams that you'll have to realise or you'll regret it forever and ever and ever. so, i am really happy now. of course, i'll have to test-drive one, first. but i am mainly doing this because my mom says so and if i'll complain after buying one, she'll give me her usual "told you so"s. but i mean...even if the car's crap while i am test-driving it, i am probably gonna buy it anyway because it is one of those dreams. i mean, i can always sell it after a year and buy a new car. (which is what my mom and me decided to do anyway...at least, we don't wanna drive any car for more than 10 years anymore because of our "nice" experiences with the current one)
so, soon, i'm gonna be the proud owner of a beetle. preferably a black one. mainly because i despise all the other colours. a red beetle is so clich� and never in my life am i gonna drive a yellow, orange or neon green car! it's also available in kinda metallic dark blue which is alright, too. but i think i'll need to get a black one because the colour was also part of the dream. oh well...we'll see...
just to get you in the mood...
it also has all sorts of other scary stuff a keyboard doesn't really need to have and the sheer presence of it scares me. i mean...what to i need a play and a stop button for? or an integrated mouse? oh and as if all that shit wasn't scary enough, there's also a big WARNING sign which says that experts say it's unhealthy to use computer keyboards. well, with this one i could believe that.
apart from that, it's also suspiciously silent. it doesn't go like "hack hack hack" while i'm typing. which is unnatural. keyboards are supposed to wake the whole neighborhood up when i'm typing. and i think i have a right to be scared because the highest price we've ever paid for a keyboard before was �10 and this one was �39. sooo...i never knew about the wonders of such things.
i still haven't taken a look at the babies. i don't really wanna see them. i mean, you don't go and have a second look at a dead body either if you don't have to, do you? and it's equally bah! i guess as long as they squeal, it's alright. sabrina called today but i didn't answer the phone. well, i was too late to get the mobile out of my bag so it wasn't really my fault. but i could have called her back. but i didn't want to. partly because i had just finished talking to mariam on the phone and mom was about to tell me the news about the cars. but mainly because i didn't want to tell her that i can't tell her how many babies there are because i find them too disgusting. her family's pretty much in love with their hamsters and the babies are kinda family babies and noone wants to hear that their baby is an ugly little worm.
however disgusting they are, i decided to let my hamsters have babies once, too. so i can have more boys and more girls. i wanna put girls in one cage and boys in the other but right now, i have three and that would mean that the princess would live all alone. so, she'll have babies once and then i'll have two nice little communities. and whenever they're getting too old, i'll let them have babies again so i'll always have hamsters without having to pay for them. that's what i call birth control. :D clever bitch, me! but they won't have babies within the next few months anyway...so i'll just let them enjoy the rest of their happy childhood together.
it just dawned on me that for the next week or longer i'll be totally alone here. maja's gone, mariam lives quite far away, too. sabrina is on vacation. and i don't want to see jenny at all. the only person left i could see would be danny and that's quite impossible because i decided that this time i'd be the bitch who loses contact. she's done that 4 or 5 times in the past and now it's my turn. and i have to do it before she gets to do it again.
i am also feeling slightly intimidated. there are two weird flying insects in my room. actually, they're quite pretty because they seem to be silver or so. but they're flying and they're insects so i don't like them...especially not in my room. i'm such a whimp. such insects scare the hell out of me and when it gets to spiders...no, i'd rather not think about that now *shivers* at least i'm not scared of mice and snakes. so, i'm not that pathetic after all.
i have to get down with some ideas for maja's and mine website as well. she spent ages working on something already and i feel like the badass because i haven't done a single thing yet. it's just that i haven't really anything in mind yet. or maybe i have too much in mind. there are so many ideas i like. i can't even decide which colours i would like and that decision would be a good start.
