if life was a movie...
2003-01-31
you know, songs that get stuck in your head are bad but smells that get stuck in your nose are just horrible. i've been smelling coconut the whole day.
uhm...yes, actually i wasn't gonna talk about that. i just had to mention it though because you guys can't tell me i suck which i've been told quite a few times today cos i keep talking about coconut smell.
whatever, i'll go back to my awfully sappy movie now. kill me!
anyway, i'm excited. i got another journal from 1000journals. as i mentioned in a previous entry (how can tina always be bothered to look for the entry?) i kinda lost the last one. ok, i didn't lose it but i still feel bad for it getting lost. so now this one has to be exceptionally good. i don't know what to do with it, though. i think i'll just look around my room for random stuff to put in there. that's always the best way to create something, me thinks.
another exciting thing happened: placebo announced their german tour dates. that's so amazing. i am going to bielefeld and bremen to see them. unfortunately i can't include hamburg because of my stupid work. damn. but i guess since it's only january having three placebo concerts planned already is quite alright. and who knows...maybe i'll find a way to get to more gigs. or i'll go to festivals. i'm sure i will see them more than three times this year.
the not-so-great news are that germany's covered in snow now. i hate snow, so that's not good. i would have liked it when i was ickle and i could have got my sleigh out and all. but now it just bothers me. infact it kinda screwed the whole country up. it took me three hours to get to school today and i heard in some places people actually had to sleep in their cars last night because they got stuck. also, we had no power this morning. which sucked big time because it happened exactly at the time when i had to get up so i had to dress and do my make-up only with the light of some small candles. kinda looked like that, too.
but at least we went shopping yesterday. i think i kinda lost it but i found so many lovely things. i bought two DVDs (die �rzte and sex and the city season I) and two CDs (kelly osbourne and JJ72), loads of clothes (had a gift voucher for that, though) and some make-up. i finally got blood red lippy which will only be worn for gigs and stuff, though. and i found some super-cool make-up thingies. one is an eye shadow pencil. it has those little applier thingie on both sides and then you can buy the actual eye shadow seperately in little...oh...caps which you screw on the pencil and this way there'll be enough eye shadow on the applier. AND you can use the pencil as often as you like. i like the idea a lot because you can carry the pencil around with you instead of having those packs. oh and i also bought eye shadow base which saves me loads of money because it even makes cheap eye shadow stay on my eyes instead of smudging itself all over my face. and it all wasn't even expensive. ok, the lippy was as i only buy that by really exclusive or at least better brands. my fave is lipfinity by ellen betrix. this has nothing to do with me being posh or so but i can't stand cheap and bad lipstick. it never stays on my lips anyway and is just plain awful. the other stuff is by art deco which is rather cheap but kinda the macgyver among the make-up brands.
i can't believe i am watching 'dirty dancing'! i haven't seen that movie for ages. and i didn't really miss it, either. but lately i'm kinda going back to my younger self. i keep buying 80's toys i used to own on ebay and i watch movies i used to love.
next week is gonna suck so much school-wise. 4 exams! i don't think they'll be hard but i can't skip school then. by now, i am really pretty much sick of school. sitting there and listening just bores me to death. ok, i don't listen much anyway. it all seems like a repetition to me. i'm glad it's friday today, anyway. i think i'll spend the whole weekend sleeping. well, except for tomorrow evening when i'm gonna watch my daniel win the next round. i don't think i'll get much rest next weekend. i'm even looking forward to the rhcp concert now. ok, i'm still not too keen on them but a gig is a gig is a gig. the venue bothers me, though. as far as i remember it sucks quite a bit. one of those modern 'let's squeeze as many people in as possible' thingies. ok, i don't like big places in general. placebo-size gigs (in germany) are ok. you always get quite a decent view of the stage and it seems a little...dunno...more comfortable than bigger gigs. and it's not about the band. i know that i liked robbie's smaller gigs better than the new stadium ones. smaller gigs are also loads cheaper which means you can afford going to more than one.
you know what bothers me about that movie? they're always dancing. ok, it's the point of the movie but how can you justify couples dancing EVERYWHERE? i mean, the main actors are walking around and in the background there are always some random figures dancing, no matter where they are. also, the story is pathetic! how can an ordinary girl like that baby-chic change like that within a few days? i mean, she's boring, she has nothing and is nothing and in the next scene she wants around all dressed-up and sexy and all. that's impossible. life isn't easy like that...unfortunately, i might add. yeah, ok, probably everything would suck a little if you could just get anything you wanted like that. but sometimes i wouldn't mind that. like...i'd just like to turn into a rich millionaire-bitch for a few months, so i could go to all gigs/festivals i wanted to. that would be lovely, wouldn't it? *sigh*
