Yo, yo dudes, here I am again with a new entry. Hoho!
Today I had my presentation in my Anglistics seminar about the Victorian Age Culture and Arts.
It was a group work and, well, I have to say it turned out quite good, actually. YES!
At the moment the prof said that my mark is a 1.3 with a tendency to 1.0 (we have to hand an excerpt of one of our source-texts and another mini-task in until next week).
Let's just say: WOUHO! At least I have no problems in one of my subjects. Hah!
Well, I'm planning not to have any problems in Japanese as well. Next week on Wednesday I'll have my language exam. Ugh.. there's quite a lot to learn again (as always). But I think I can manage this. :)

What else? Last weekend I watched the Anime "Shiki" (屍鬼) which is the adaption of a light novel and also turned into a manga.
I have to say it was one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. The story is quite good, actually.
It's about a smal village called Sotoba and the people living there. One summer the great European style mansion in the village gets new owners - strange people who moved in at night. Around the time of their arriving people in the village start to die of uncertain reasons.
The only doctor in the village, Ozaki Toshio, tries to find out which disease hunts the village people down. A second main character would be Yuuki Natsuno, a 15-year-old high-school student who moved into Sotoba a year ago and only wishes to get back to the big city again. The two of them find out after a while what the real cause of the numerous deaths is...
Well.. that's the story without any spoilers in short form. If you like horror, psychological and gory stuff you should give this anime a try.
I started reading the manga as well, because due to the shortness of the anime (22 episodes) not all character plots are developed as they should/could be. I guess the novel is even better, maybe I'll read it, too... it's Japanese only, but maybe I'll be able to get one while I'm in Japan.
(Ah yeah.. lol I never mentioned this here, but I'll definitely go on an internship this year, starting in May/June, I assume. I want to work at a hotel (in Okinawa, when I get the place there for summer or in Hokkaidô for winter). I applied already and had an interview with the dudes at  the Australian organisation which provides the internship slots. Right now they're negotiating the possibilities. I hope everything will turn out well. I can't stand university at the moment and need to get out of here to regain some energy and positive thinking concerning my studies. Oh lol a few weeks ago I thought I would go nuts if I were to be stuck in university any more second. xD")

Hi dudes,

hope you're all well.
Today I planned to format my computer in order to fix the issues bothering me for the last 2 weeks.
My baby randomly shut down and error messages concerning RAM or drivers occured. Ugh... Saved all my data und was ready to go this noon, but then I got a cool idea. Hah, since the problems started after I installed new drivers for my graphics board, I decided to remove them and re-install it all. <-- Went good, until now. Afterwards I spent ~2.5 hours testing each of my RAM bars. Seems every one of them is fine. Hm... so I ended up not formating, which is cool... if the problems will be gone for real now. I'm still afraid that this is just the quiet before the storm.

Whatelse?
I passed my re-exam in Japanese. 3.0. Not that good, but well.. guess I really have to learn every day a little bit and not just randomly 1 day before those little tests. Hm... Uni started a week ago and I managed it to do something extra-curricular every day until now. Have to continue and then.. well hopefully my marks will go up, back to the status from one year ago. *_*"

My dad bought a new cat for my mum.
He's a ragdoll/persia mix and called "Tom", which is super funny because a friend of mine shares the same name. "Tomtom!!" Haha. :D

This is the young man residing at my mum's side.
Phoned my parents this afternoon and he seems to finally calm down. They had a sleepless night, because little Tom didn't feel too well.

I'm happy for my mum, because she really loves cats and I guess it's good for her to have one around again.
But to be honest I feel awkward... maybe it's because I can't be at home right now and get in touch with our new family member. Since I have money problems at the moment I'm not able to go home randomly. :(
But to be honest, I felt shitty when I first saw the photos today. My first thoughts were: "This is not my baby. It's not him." I guess I'm not ready for a new cat, yet. I don't know if it would change when I were there... sigh. I really hope it will get better, because I want to welcome him as a new family member, properly.

Okonomiyaki, anyone?

( ----------- )

Yo, yesterday I had a short holiday in Berlin, Germany's oh so big capital and one of the most cruel cities, I know.
As you can read: I survived.

Mainly due to Mrs Feder's "Let's give Qan some sweets!" tour, I guess.
I met up with her at the Alexanderplatz and went to a little cupcake café near the Hackescher Markt. I forgot the name and the exact place, damn! But oooooooh *_* I never ate cupcakes before and they were so... soo sweet and yummy and fuckin' cute looking. Even the interior of the café looked like those from a doll house. Mrs Feder fit perfectly in, 'cause she was wearing a sailor-like skirt and blouse and a cap and oh my gawd, she looked so cute (like all persons wearing the "Loli"-style, I know, do) and I somehow felt the strange urge to fold my hands before my mouth and squeaking all the time.
Wuah!

Actually we wanted to take a look at the Harajuku Day event near the Friedrichsbrücke, but since the weather was a whole mess we decided to go window-shopping. When we got in to the Claire's store, a saleslady approached us instantly and gave us one of those little baskets with glimmering hope in her eyes, screaming: "BUY SOMETHING GLIMMERING AND CUTE AND PINK, PLEASU!" Well... we destroyed her hope, I'm afraid.

Besides all the window-shopping we had really great talks about fandom and cosplay. WUAHAHAHA! It's sooooo good to have someone one can share the love, with *_*"""
Later in the afternoon we went to the Harajuku Day place and I had the chance to meet Jessy there, who was completely stunned and disbelieving that I would come to Berlin. Haha, her face was so awesome. ^^
Actually we looked for some friends of Feder, but when they seemed not to be there, we decided to go... la la la, just as we were about to leave the place, Feder took a glance of them.
So I met Nina, Mrs Krone, Hachi and Nina's boyfriend, whose name I.. aaaah forgot.
/shame on me!
We sat down on the grass and stared at other people, which was funny. Muaha. I somehow felt strange again, sitting between all those cutey Loli-girls in my baggy pants XD""" but the atmosphere was cool. Later another girl with beautiful locks appeared (I forgot her name, too.. this is so bad >__<). Most of the time we were opening and closing our umbrellas because the rain was coming and going like it pleased. Grah!
One funny aspect: One of the... hmm I guess she was kind of event-admin, approached us (it was around 4 pm) and said: "Ohayoooooooo you "Abseitssitzer" (people sitting aside from the main crowd)! The cosplay challenge is starting soon, maybe you want to come nearer?"
Instantly the student in me raised his evil mind and I hardly could resist from correcting her. Ohayô.. at 4 pm... thank you very much. >___>

Hrm. But since we wanted to go eating (crèpes, yay!) again, we denied. Hachi, Mrs Krone, the super locks girl and Feder wanted to go to the cinema later and since the first three wanted to eat something non-sweet, we said goodbye and went to the underground station of the Alexanderplatz. Down there are several little shops for food, such as Dunkin' Donuts and stuff. And... oooooooh "PomPom's Crèpes" it's a Japanese store and the crèpes are so... amazing there *_*
I took a strawberry crèpe listening to Feder's and Nina's advice. The shop-owner also had green tea ice cream *_*"" Next time, I will eat some of this. It's so yummy!

After getting stuffed again, I walked Feder to the cinema and waited there with her and the others for my later company to arrive. Hohoho.. when their film was about to start, I went to the world's clock at the Alex again and met up with Lisa, Stefan and Patrick. Those three I met in the "emo-forum" I attended like 2 years ago. It's so funny, those guys aren't one percent of emo at all but I guess they're three of the most active users there. Muahaha.
I learnt something, again. Don't meet with "normal" guys when you had a day full of fandom, Qan!
Lisa asked, how my day was so far and I was like: "EATING; VIDEO GAMU; COSPLAY; WAHAHAHAH!!!" And the three were like: Ahum... XD;; (Dudes, she is a fuckin' freak, maybe we should leave her and run for our lives?!)
Well.. they stayed, which was nice.
I drank one of the worst Mojitos I ever had in the Alex bar, beneath the television tower. If there's a cocktail-lover reading this entry: Don't go there! XD"

At 9 pm I had to meet up with the guys from my train ticket-sharing group. I was so damn tired. o_O"""
Around 12 pm I arrived at home again and fell onto my bed immediately.

Although the weather was a bitch, the day was wonderful *____*""
I'm very looking forward to see all the guys soon again. Feder and Co at the Connichi and the others at a concert in November. ... okay, this is not so soon, but at least in this year, so... it's okay. :D

Well, the day's summary would be: Went to Berlin, eating awesome sweets, having great talks about fandom and scaring normal people, yay! XD"""

Thanks for reading and  have a nice day, dudes!

PS: I'm afraid, I've a new favourite song. --> Kyosuke Himuro feat. Gerard Way - Safe And Sound.
It's SO strange, I hardly can stand Gerard Way's voice in MCR songs (there are only two, actually, which I kinda like), but in this song... it just sounds... awesome!
I keep telling myself that's only because of the fact, I always think of Cloud riding Fenrir, when I listen to it. XD
(It's the new ending for FFVII AC Complete)

今日の試験は。。。 ah sorry, I'm still in kinda Japanese-"mode".
What I wanted to say actually, was: Today's exam went... quite good. Honestly, I'm a bit shocked about how much I knew. o_O"""
I hope it's not just a feeling.

Thanks again to anyone who said "Good luck". ^___^

The English Presentation on Tuesday was cool, too. Only one quote from Dr. Ronny... eh Ronthaler: "Actually.. that made my day."
Yoooosh >_< \m/


Next exams to go: English History and Literature --> 14th July, and Japanese History --> 15th or 16th July.
Sa~ I should learn.. but I guess a day off is okay. Wah.
Saturday I will go out and blow off my mind *coughs* I need new room for knowledge. XD;

I want those exams to end soon. I'm sooo eager to sewing my costumes for the Connichi and the Death Note group shooting. Kyahaha!
Oh.. random note.. I FINALLY!!!! (after ... like... 6 years?!) started watching "Weiß Kreuz" and... oh my gawd! I was always so uber fascinated by it and now.. I hmm... I think Tsuchiya Kyoko should've put all of it in a manga. The anime is just so.. wtf. They're killers!! And the only blood that's visible is a little red on their weapons. Weeebooo! >___<

But oooh yes... 6 years ago I decided on Yôji to be my favourite character (and played his role in an online RPG, ne.. remember, Eli? ^^°) and wouh... he actually is my favourite. Hohohoo.. hentaiii ... and emo.. but they're all emo, so.. hmm ^^°

What else... aaaah a message for all the MUCC fans on my friends list:
18th October - Berlin. Who will be there?!
I know that some of you will be attending the concert in Munich (I would like to go there, too.. but it's too expensive >_<), but I hope that there're still some of you who will go to Berlin?!

Okay, that's all so far.
Have a nice day, dudes.

Ouh yeah. Last night the Hat Trickers came to a little Pub here in Leipzig and thanks to thond 's information my attendance was decided long ago. :)
I met up with Nagi, Angel and Kurai and some of Nagi's and Angel's friends around 8 p.m. The band had their sound check and then left the "stage" to have dinner and some beer. The dude who organised their European Tour recommended English ales to them and oha oha, the singer was like: English?! OMFG!!! I will die if I drink this, for surrrrre! <--- and ran to the bar, getting one. :D
I was in mood for beer, too and so I ordered 3 in 2 hours, it would've been more, but my purse decided not to assist my thirst. Hrm. ^^"

Anyways, the the pub was filled more 'n' more with punk rockers and dudes who wanted to check out the band... I guess we were the only one coming especially for the "Japanese".
Well, the concert started around 10:30 p.m. if my memory is clear ... and lasted like... uhm.. 30 minutes? 40 minutes? It was not a long one. They came back for an encore-song and then left again. Aaaah I was just getting warmed up >__<"".
The music was awesome, I especially adored the violonist and the girl on the bass guitar. Besides her skills she had legs like.. ouuuh yes. :D:D:D:D

Weell, after their little gig the funny part of the evening began. I was chatting with the guy on the merchandise-stand, who turned out to be the organisator of their European tour and the admin of their myspace profile, and meanwhile I looked at the buttons and wasn't able to decide on one. Angel wanted to have a patch and suddenly the singer appeared and unpacked some neon green and neon pink patches. The merchandise-dude (fack I don't know his name XD) and the singer were making fun and saying stuff like: pink patches = kakkoii and the buttons full of gory stuff = kawaii. And then.. it happened. I said (in ooh my gawd so bad Japanese) that the buttons were SO NOT KAWAII and suddenly they stared at me: "You understand Japanese?!" And I was like... well like everyone would be who had only talked to a Japanese person once in their life and stumbled something. All I managed to say was, how cool their concert was and that I was thankful for them coming to Germany (oh SO BAAAAD) and he was like: SUGEEE! Arigatouuuu~~~ and bowed and then I bowed and he bowed again and we laughed. Argh >_<!
After that he vanished and when he came back and saw me again sitting there with the others, he said: "Aaaaw Japaneeeeese~~~" and pointed to me. @__@"""
Seriously dudes, all my vocabulary was gone. XD;;; So embarassing. Aw ToT.

Well we left around 11:50 p.m. I guess... I accompanied Kurai to her dorm and then went homeward by bike.
I hope that I will get the photos Angel and Kurai took and then I will show them to you.
Plus, I bought a t-shirt which I want to modify a bit. Wouh it will be the first work on my new sewing machine. Harrr.

Anyway.. have a nice day.

Hier v-log und so.
Hab mich zusammengerissen. Tehehe.

... here I am.

Super interesting info #1:
I've survived the first two days in my new call center job. Lucky me!
:)
I've even got the feeling, that the calls aren't that frightening anymore. When I got the first, my pulse was ruuuuuuuunning and I was only staring at my trainer's face begging for help xD;;;
Today will be TEH crucial test - taking calls without an agent sitting next to me. OUH MY GOOOOD!
*coughs* So if you plan to change your energy provider, please be patient with the info-hotline-agents, when you call from 5 - 9 p.m. today, thanks XD;


Super interesting info #2:
I survived... AGAIN! one of Anna's parties. Hah, I donnu if it's only the date (all the parties of her I attended were around the 20th of a month) or if it's me or the company of her or whatever - I always end up being completely drunk XD;;;
It also went like this, yesterday.
Vodka and Tequila and ... a sip of beer (I accuse the beer!! xD) seem to be too much for me.
I mean, I went to bed around... okay - THAT's the question. Guess, it must've been like 2 - 3 a.m. *coughs* and wasn't in mood to stand up before 1 p.m. *coughs again* Aaaaah I'm getting old - or lazy - or just lucky, because I had nothing to do anyways this morning.
Right now I'm having my "breakfast" - bread roll, fried egg, fruits aaaand cocoaaaa~~~~ the best way to give your body everything back the alcohol took from it xD;

What else? Hmmmm I donnu if you people heard of it - but a young man killed 10 people and himself at his training school yesterday morning. When I read it in the news paper I was totally shocked. Again, someone felt so much hate for this world and the people living in it that he got urged to run amuck.... that affects me pretty much. I mean, nearly everybody knows the feeling, when the world seems to be full of shit and badass people, nearly everybody knows, how hate feels... but I will never be able to understand, how people could forget all those little things on earth, that make life itself worth living.
Saaah~ but what the real problem is - I did some research on this case - the media. AGAIN!
In nearly every article I've read the information is given, that he loved watching horror films, listening to heavy metal, bla bla bla. As if music and films and all this shit can be the excuse or explanation for someone to kill people. FACK YOU! It's always a personal problem, a problem in the mind of those people, hell!
Maybe the music he listened to or the films he watched gave him some kind of trigger or ideas - but the world's full of triggers and ideas for bad things - cause bad things happen everywhere. The problem is not the hobby a murderer has, it's the murderer himself.

Okay... that's my comment to this so far. I could write more, but I guess my English would not be enough for it to explain exactly what I feel - mother tongue, thanks a lot ^^"
I guess I will go shopping now - foods, of course, 'cause our refrigerator is empty.

Tomcat Piet's appearance describes wonderfully, how I feel today:



Hehe :D
All I wanna do is lying around and relax and... watch D. Gray-Man *_____*
Daaaammit, this series gets better with every single episode.
*coughs* Okay, more about that later on.

Holy Gaysus~
I can't imagine that this actually happened.
I slept like... 12 hours... TWELVE hours!
Wohoooooooooooooooo~
And I'm feeling kinda alive now... xD;

When I woke up earlier in the morning (8:47 a.m. hoho I watched the clock), I wasn't able to move o_O
It was just like my body said: "STAY HERRRRRRRRE!" I obeyed till 1:53 p.m. *cough*
But I guess it was needed.
Hah~ just had breakfast in my bed, now I'm gonna finding some asskickin music and then... siiiiinging under the shower. Or something o_O;

Wuhuuu I found the new Simple Plan album. Nyahaharrr :D

Have a nice day, dudes <3~
