First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Aiba-chan! ^^ I'm a day late sadly, yesterday didn't had the chance to post. We were at the usual face-showing at my grandma. As you can guess, I really don't like this formal thing. I only meet these people once a year, and if anyone WOULD ask me, and I could choose, I would so NOT go. Since the weather was quite warm, and there was no ice on the road, my mom decided we should go with the car. My brother was happy, since that way he didn't need to walk with a big bag around. Normal it would have been only us 4, my grandma, cousin & his girlfriend, aunt and her actual guy... Well, yesterday we got a surprise with my grandmothers sister, her husband and my dad's cousin being there to boot... which made the already bad day much worse. I really have a problem with the crowd, and my grandmother's apartment isn't big, so I couldn't even hide. So, what to do? Well, I decided on alcohol. First 4 pear-schnapps, and then 5 glasses of red wine to the lunch did the trick. Not that it could even make me drunk, but it was enough to damp the voices of others, and made their (or mine? X3) being there more bearable. I even talked with them without using irony, the most with the girlfriend of my cousin... though for the life of me I can't remember her name... >___<" I already meet her last year, but since it's really only a once a year thing, I don't find it so important. Not to say, I'm bad at remembering names. Always tell my friends, that they are safe, if I called their names at last once on my own. X3 The funniest though was, as we where on the way back home in the car, I asked my mom about 'cousin's girlfriend' name, and she said: "I don't know either." X3 Now the only reason why this bothers me is that she told me, that my cousin is called to Kyoto in 2011, and she'll probably go with him. Agh, I envy them so much!!! Not that I don't have an artistic soul, but as a child I really haven't thought that making photos could get me to Japan. T____T Maybe I shouldn't have quit the violin, and then they would call me too, as a prodigy. XDXDXD Anyway, as we got home, mom decided we need to drink the opened Amaretto (from what I only used about 1 cl for the marzipan-role)... so we drank it together. You may not believe me, but next to this honey-sweet liqueur the chocolate-mousse tasted salty... Mom made me drink 4 glasses of it. T__T I searched high and low for anything salty in our home to neutralize the taste of the drinks somewhat... but even after a hour I couldn't get it out of my mouth. It felt like the purest honey was dripping from my lips. T__T NOTE to myself: don't let Mom buy this drink EVER AGAIN!!! Tags: @home, aiba masaki, birthday, holiday, programs, thoughts

Well, this weekend was for the dogs again... First of all, I'm glad to tell to those, who were worried, that I'm feeling better after Friday. So no matter, if it was a bug, or maybe an overdose of Vitamin C, I'm over it. Thanks to that I went to shopping on Saturday. Bought some little stuff for my Mom's birthday. We plan to buy something together with my brother, but a little something next to it will not hurt. Or I just simply will give it to her on Xmas. XD Oh! And I bought an air fresher, thought to try out this Ambi Pur brand. Only as I got home did I realize, that the seller didn't put it on the bill. So that's why I thought I payed so little! - I thought. X3 Next to that I bought tickets for the operetta, to go with my mom in December. Since I had two extra, I gave them to Minami and Luluko. Hehehe, they seemed quite surprised that I just gave them off... X3 Bought two Poirot dvd's again... but to tell the truth, they were all a disappointment. ~~" Wasps Nest was the worst of all. Poirot just tricked an old friend of his, to ruin his desperate plan, and then say with a smile "you my friend, will only stay a killer deep in your mind..." Oh, please. ~~" The Plymouth Express I already read. To tell the truth the book was so much better. Not only did they re-think the story - and make the case closing unbelievable - but even the acting was lame. Like the actors actually know what a bull they were playing. Hercule Poirot's Christmas was a story I think I already saw in the series Murder, she wrote... Even if this wants to be a complicated story, and I know that it's just a tv series, so they have a time limit for everything, but this time Murder, she wrote actually wins over Poirot. Sunday I had a sleep-in day again. Then I woke up to Zeus cuddling into my stomach. It was so sweet, made me all happy. ^^ In other news Yuuki and Xira seem to have a competition going on for the attention of Zeus... and I guess, us. They don't seem to realize that with Zeus... well, that he can't really answer their expectations. ^^" But it's good to see that they seem to have come to an agreement, and play together just for the fun of it. It's another cute scene to watch. ^^ Then for the day we saw The Count of Monte Cristo and The Man in the Iron Mask, both with Richard Chamberlain as the main. This guy is really ideal for the main character in Dumas dramas. XD To tell the truth though, I can't take the Iron Mask serious as a film. The Count of Monte Christo - while shorter than the other remake of the Dumas story - has it's good points. For example here is a scene where Dantes learns from his friend in the prison while they dig, and how he thinks about who actually got him to the castle of If. Here the father of Dantes died of hunger... in the other the owner of the ship Edward was 2nd in command helped his father to have at last a normal life. Then the character of Cadrus (hope I wrote that one right) here is a young stealer - in the other an older snoop guy. Little things like that can make a lot of difference in a story if they come together.

Mom's birthday was great! As written I got early off, and did major cleaning, cooked. Since our tastes doesn't match in the family, I couldn't really bake a cake that would be part this, and part that. My dad only eats chocolate cake, I can't have any kind of milk products, and my brother doesn't like butter-creams. T_T So I bought a little bit of this and that, and even found a great fruitcake there were selling. Mom really loved it. ^^ As she got home she got really surprised looking at the house, dinner ready, and flowers on the table - from dad. He got her earrings and a necklace. Both were made like big I's - standing for her first name. I got her an mp3 player - my brother put a few songs on it - and a Carry On in the Jungle dvd. I could tell she was awed, since she only remembered to ask how I came home early, today afternoon. X3 So it was a good thing to do, I'm satisfied. ^.^ Another good thing is this: A few of you maybe remember that I did that Nagayan Overseas Postcard Project with Timi and Ayumi... Well at last we got a report about what really happened with it that you can read here. And WOW for Nagayan and his direct way. ^.^ Tags: @home, birthday, nagayama takashi

First of all:  HAPPY BIRHTDAY YUKI!!! 
I wish you a life full of handsome guys with beautiful voices, who only have one misson: to make you happy. ^_^
Saw a film on Sat1 again. From the title I thought, this could be nice to watch: Wenn liebe doch so einfach wär' [If only love would be so easy]. But it was just stereotypes mixed together into a film. x_x It was a long time that I saw a story this boring. The life of Katrina Lang wasn't so exiting till now, working as a ticket-seller by the Railways in the small station Pinnow, a place that will be closed in short, since the express train won't stop there. To demo against closing Katrina goes out to every express train to protest, but nobody even sees the sign on a train going 120km/h. One day a lawyer shows up, and tells her, she is part-heritor of a shipping company. Katrina knows that this is a missunderstanding, and she doesn't plan to accept the heirship, but the idea that she still could have lviing family makes her happy, so she goes to Hamburg to meet them.   There she is sad to see that the people living there in a house aren't really family. The only reason why she is staying is the sunny boy of the family, Moritz. She has some romantic feelings about him, and while the guy plays a lot around, he doesn't seem unaffected by her eather. While they only flirt a bit, there seem to be more going on between the more conservative brother of Moritz, David, who shows her all of the company. While this they are getting closer, and thanks to Katrina they can even avoid a strike. But as the reason why Katrina became a heritor comes clear, all hell breaks loose... The thing that I couldn't accept the most was the way she thought about love and marriage. Every guy that proposes to her she kisses, and if she doesn't see fireworks, rainbows or hears the symphony orchestra then she refuses... Seems quite hollow for me. Agh, I'm still feeling full. Today's lunch was chicken-ramen, since mom asked for it. So I called her, and together we went to eat some. Next to full, I'm feeling hot as well, all thanks to that soup. Not that it wasn't good! It was a lot, it was tasty, and I even loved the tea we got next to it. But I just think, maybe I should wait till it's winter to eat something this hot. ^.^" Tags: birthday, defilm

Happy Birthday to Me Happy Birthday to Me Happy Birthday to Me~e Happy Birthday to Me! =^.^= So, this was an interesting birthday, beginning with Saturday. On the meet I had good mood... till at one point someone just spit one one of my friends! That just done it, and I told them: I want to drink (alcohol). So I bought and on the meet we drank a choco-liqueur, then ate chocho-vanillia ice, and then drank red-wine. ^^ Suz was overjoyed. Ah, that was cute. X3 I must say, it is rare for me to drink, and how I remember, it was a long time ago that I drank with friends from the meet - maybe a few years ago on a j-rock party? or something like that. Well, it wasn't much for one person, since there were more than 10 that wanted to try these. Then on Sunday I let myself talk into a community, and then made it. X3 Icaizmus is an inside-joke on the meet, and how I see it, it has nothing to do with me, or my name... it's just simple something that holds a part of the meet together. ^.^ And just on the first day 6 members already! That was a nice feeling. ^^ Even if I'm just an 'object' of the belive. (T_T) XD Then, I got my Birthday-present yesterday: an mp3 player - I had already my eyes on one, so I was really happy ^^ - and a chrocus - that made me smile. I'm not a big friend of flowers. Ok, I like to watch them, but I don't really want to have them for myself. Maybe most find it strange, but I don't like cut flowers. It's like getting them dead. Ok, I know, that humankind wants to have beautiful things... but for me to get a tulip, that can't live anymore~ like getting a desperately wounded animal as a present. So last year I told this as many times, to as many people as I could. It seemed to have worked, since I got this flower tiled - and my favourite color too. It was a feeling like: 'A~ah, they are listening to what I'm saying.' ^^ It was nice. Today I got many-many HB greetings on the Izaizmus community. ^^ To end it, I watched 3rd part of Lost Time, a japanese tv-drama, and a part of Ai no Apron - a japanese cook-show. It was fun to spend a birthday like any other day. ^^ Tags: birthday, thoughts
