Reviving my journal

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Wow... This feels like an eternity ago (oO) ...

Anyhow, reason for posting: some of my friends are leaving for Tokyo in a few days to continue their study and some will stay there for more than a year. These lovely people mostly have their own ways of keeping us posted on what happens, but I figured I'd love to let them know what goes on around our base as well... This means this journal will become far more personal than before, I hope I can get used to that xD

Long story short: this journal will need a clean up and a better organization starting today...

I will create posts for a different categories and move my old posts into them. This will become my news post and will contain info on updates in special categories. Normal blog posts will appear under this post, as I will just post them to whatever date it is that I write them.

EDIT (25-06-2009): Edited the last paragraph...  Because I changed my mind xD

Boekenfestijn

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Yay, I've got so many books now and I'm so happy with them x3!   I've been to what's called the "boekenfestijn" in my hometown and it's an event where you can buy new books for next to nothing.

What I scored:
Geoffrey Chaucer - The Canterbury Tales (original with notes)
David Gibbins - Atlantis
Frances Hodgson Burnett - The Secret Garden
Sir Walter Scot - Ivanhoe
Bram Stoker - Dracula
Vergil - Aeneid
(I've got the feeling I'm forgetting one, so maybe I'll get back on this one...)

Manga:
Volume 6 of Model (a vampire series) (I've read it and found out there is only one volume more and now I want that one too xD)
Volume 13 and 14 of Tramps like us (kimi wa petto) (now I only need volume 12 (><) )

Of course they had much more and for one I've seriously been walking around with a beautiful book about Palladio (you know, the Renaissance architect?) in my hands for several minutes. In the end I realized I was still beyond broke and could buy that book at a store (for the same price as well) so I left it.


This event only comes to town for a few days each year and it's really something I'm saving money for when I have it. It's amazing how many English books there are, but I'm also time and again stunned by the amount of books about art and history and food and so on. Definitely worth a visit xD.



Edit: I knew it: I skipped a book xD  The one I forgot is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Caroll

Easter update!

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Even though this journal is far from ready to be viewed by the world, I couldn't resist posting these pictures of the cake I baked.

Picture time!


Close up! (fuzzy)

Some more information, in Dutch, because I don't feel like researching this xD

De taart bestaat uit twee lagen Moskovisch gebak en de chocolavulling en topping heet Pariser Creme (en ja, dit komt uit het nieuwe tweedehandse gebakjes boek dat ik niet kon laten te kopen xD).

De versiering die idd 'Paas-rose' is (><) is nog over van mijn verjaardag... De haasjes zijn nu op xD


Dja, more information will be posted in due time... When I've finally updated this crap xD



Peace out, may the smex be with you, keep the crack alive!



P.S. Photobucket is a royal pain in the ass... Links don't work as I want them to... As of today I'm in search of a better place to host pictures (><)

P.P.S. It is too effing win that my cake matches my layout xD

Geekyness ahead 8D

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I just decided to put up a shameless plug for a project I completely adore (and am probably going to be part of (^^) ). It's called Pokemon: The Lost World and the main informational source is a thread, situated here: Pokemon: TLW

I decided to make a seperate post in this journal, to create a place for our Glossary. Glossary? Yes, glossary *nods*. Nika, Nira and I often use words that are actually pretty non-existent. And although a lot of you might easily guess the meaning because of random fangirl knowledge and/or context, we thought it would be fun to put this growing list of words in a post for you all to see and learn from ^^



...Ok, so it's still a bit small and all, but we intend to fill it up as we write our fanfic. This post will be updated and if it gets off the first page, I'll create a link from te latest post to this one ^^

Edit: One more thing: should you stumble upon something in our fanfic that you don't understand and it's something we seem to be using as standard lingo, give us a call in the comments under this post and we'll add it for you ;)
