They're palying it!

They're playing Jenny from the black! Oh God! I remember I made my own version of the song! hahaha!


Break!

The last post kind of pushed me into do something. I was like: "Get yourself together girl and do something!" and I did. I guess it's not a matter of will, but a matter of actually doing what one wants to do. So I started by reading and then I looked through 27 pages with 8 artists on each page and tried to find artist to the gig but it's so hard to get a hold on people. Either there's no contact information or they don't answer their phones. But, hey, there's an awful lot of talent out there! Wow!

Now I'm taking a well deserved break! But not a long one, I have to get back to my writing and artist hunting.


Look what's on TV:


JLO back in 99. (God! it's 10 years ago!)

OOOOh! It's a JLo special. Now they're playing "My love don't cost a thing". This brings back so much memories. Like when people used to call me JLo when she came out with her "Jenny from the block" (I bet they will play that one too) because I used to wear a hat like the one she wears in the video. That reminds me that I used to wear a lot of hats. I'm glad I got over that phase!

Freaking out!

I really and deeply wonder how the brain works and especially mine. Ok. Maybe it's just my brain that's damaged. It works in a very weird and abnormal way. Like right now. I have one hundred and thirty five things to do, yet I'm spending 45 mins on facebook watching stupid videos that my friends have posted and now I'm writing this and afterwards I'll probably read some blogs and then watch some TV because here's how my stupid brain works: A side of my brain or maybe it's my conscious is telling me that a have an exam paper to write to next friday, that I have to find an artist/band that's willing to play for free to next saturday, that I have to read about 2 chapters of a school book before monday and a lot of other things, but my brain get's really stressed, freaks out because it's afraid that it won't be able to do all this and controls my body into doing nothing or just doing stupidities like watching 2 movies in a row or watching 3 episodes of Ugly Betty. Sometimes, this conscious thing kick in again and I tell my self: "OK, after I¨m done with this episode, or with this gossip website, I'll start doing something". Well actually right now I'm telling myself: "After I'm done with this post, I'll definitely start reading my history book" but we'll see what happens. And that's how it goes on and on and on until I sit there the night before the exam and write down whatever and regret every single moment i spent on doing nothing. What is wrong with me? Am I stupid?

Apparently.

Fruits...


I like fruits

Me? Cooking?

Me? Cooking? I don't think so! It's not that I don't like cocking or food, it just that I don't have the patience. I don't have the patience to spend 3 hours in the kitchen, because afterwards I'm just so sick of it that i don't eat my own cooked food. I don't have the patience to wait for hours, to stir, to wait, to go back and stir again. I don't have the patience to wash all the things I use (and I use almost everything that's available in the kitchen). I don't even have the patience to warm up left overs like I'm doing now, I just warm it up a little bit then eat it half warm.|I really need a microwave.


Backpack vs. Bag

Yesterday when I was at the doctor, she told me that I had to use crutches! I'm not looking forward to it because I'm seriously the clumsiest person on earth and I'll probably end up hurting myself even more! Anyway, yesterday I had to convince myself to use them to a lecture I was going to and a came to this really scary conclusion: I can't wear shoulder bags anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!! Technically I can wear them, but being as I mentioned before the most clumsy person on earth I just can't, because my bag will slowly slide down my shoulder and land at my hand as I'm trying to mange the crutch so I'll have to stop and put it back on, if it doesn't fall completely off. This will happen every 5 min, so I realized that I have to wear backpacks! That's just a nightmare! Backpacks are so UGLY! I hate them!
I have to agree that they are comfier than a shoulder bag and that sometimes when I think about my future I imagine myself as a 70 year-old with her right shoulder a lot lower then her left one. That's because I always were my bags on my right shoulder and not only that, but I also carry my whole world inside my bag so my bags normally wight more that 50 kilos. But you know, you have to suffer for your beauty and that's what I have been doing. But i think that in my current situation I'll have to prioritize my health over my looks. So I'm starting to get used to this terrible idea...
But seriously, look at this:


God I couldn't find ONE nice looking backpack, this is seriously the nicest one!
(By the way it took me an eternity to find this picture because in online fashions stores they don't sell backpacks, you'll only find those in the sport section)

2 weeks

It's been 2 weeks now. 2 weeks since I had a patella dislocation or a kneecap dislocation or in normal human language: it's been 2 weeks since my left knee decided to pop out of place!
Anyway, today I went back to the hospital full of positiveness and hope waiting for a miracle to happen, expecting the doctor to tell me that everything was alright and back to normal and that now I could run and jump and dance and do whatever I wanted! Of course, as I kind of knew deep deep inside, that didn't happen. The doctor told me that I had to rest for 4 more weeks! Yey! another 4 weeks where I can't bend my knee, can't walk fast and have to accept everyones help!

As I was sitting there in the hospital, I though about Grey's Anatomy. When I first started watching the show, although I knew it was fiction, I got really respect for doctors and for their job and realized what an important responsibility they have. But the show have really damaged my mind because now I think that all doctors look like Mc Dreamy, Mc Streamy or Alex. When I was in the room waiting for the doctor I was imagining that one of them, or one that looked like them would come to my room, and I actually saw a doctor that looked a lot like George. It was really fun to watch him because he didn't know that I was watching him and what I was thinking. I was imagining things going on between the doctors! hahaha!


But back to the doctors responsibilities and work, I have to say that I have a lot of respect for the paramedics and the nurses. I agree that the doctors do the "hard work" or the difficult part but the paramedics and the nurses are equally important and has an equally important role. So, shout out to all the paramedics and nurses!!

Ashley, Sean and Pablo Francisco

Yesterday was a lot of fun!! It didn't start that good though. My friend and I had planned to go to a mexican restaurant before the show, but we were in a meeting that never ended. We actually had to leave before the meeting was over because I had to meet a guy I was selling my Madcon tickets to but hey that's another story. Anyway, when we finally were going to the restaurant we realized we only had 1 hour left to the show so we ended up going to T.G.I Friday's, ordered and just sat there chatting. After 35 min or more we hadn't got our food yet so we called the waiter and exactly as we though he had forgotten to place the order. Poor thing. I felt really sorry for him because I know how stressing it is to work at a restaurant. Anyway they offered us 50% off if we stayed but by then we only had 15 min left so we had to leave. They gave us some coupons for free appetizer or smoothie which is quite nice. The bad thing is that by then we were really hungry. I for example hadn't eaten all day because I know we were eating out and we couldn't just wait for the end of the show, so we went to Deli de Luca, bought some pizza rolls and Pepsi Max that we smuggled in.
When we got there I knew right away that the audience would be great because they were all buying drinks (I didn't think of that before!) and I wasn't wrong. People were totally crazy, screaming, laughing and making a LOT of noise.
Anyway, the show was great. At least the first part. It's started with Sean Savoy and Ashley Fils-Aime how were like the warm-up guys for Pablo. They were really hilarious and it was the kind of humor that I like, a bit like Def Comedy Jam. What I liked the most was that they had "local jokes", like about stuff happening here which means they have done some research. Really nice! I really appreciated!
After they did their thing Pablo came out and people went crazy! I have to be honest, it wasn't that funny. Ok, he has a real talent when it comes to different voices, he's really really talented, but he need to get some new stuff because spending like I don't know how much time just doing noises is a bit ennoying. There were no story, I don't know how to explain but it was like just different voices over and over again. I'm not saying it wasn't funny cause I laughed a lot but I was just not that funny (haha this reminds me of that movie title He just not that into you). Another thing that I didn't like that much was that most of the show was sex jokes and that can be funny but not when the whole show is about sex. I've always said that I feel that when comedians turn to sex jokes, they're not that talented. A talented comedian is one that can make jokes about everything, because using sex jokes is playing it too safe because it's something you know that people will laugh about. It's like making a fart noise to a kid over and over again because you know they will always laugh. But I had a lot of fun. I would give the show 4 out of 6 stars, 3 to Ashley and Sean and 1 to Pablo.

Who you foolin'?

Yey! Yey! I'm going to see Pablo Francisco tonight! I'm really excited although I'm keeping my expectations low because I don't want to be disappointed. I'm afraid he thinks that since we are a new audience and most of us have only seen him on tv or (in my case) on youtube, he could just use some of his old jokes, because that would be really uncool. I'm also a bit curious about how I'm going to behave because I've never been to a comedy show. I've seen a hundred on DVD and on those I've seen people laughing their asses off and clapping and screaming and stuff. Most of the time I find the jokes really funny, but I almost never start laughing loudly when I'm alone in my sofa so I don't know how i will behave tonight, am I going to just think "that was funny" or am I going to laugh loud like everyone else? I think that I'll probably laugh (if it's really funny of course) because I think laughter is contagious. Another thing I think about, is how is the scandinavian audience going to be? Like the american ones I've seen on DVD or very silent and cold like they usually are? I'll soon find out.


My favorite PF video:

"How long has she been calling you a puta?"
"Here, hold my baby!" LOOOOOOL

I woke up this morning, the sunshine was shining.

I didn´t sleep well tonight either BUT I had just wonderful dreams. I dream that I was hanging out with my best friends and that I had something going on with a guy I have a crush on. And you know how sometimes you wake up feeling this was not a dream, this happened for real? Well that happens to me a lot and this morning was one of those morning when I'm happy cause I had so much fun all night long with my friends and my crush. In addition, I don´t have that big stone that´s making me blue and depressed and tired. I feel fresh. Outside the birds are twittering/singing and the sun is shining. This is a beautiful day :-)

Happy face by Destiny's Child, I used to listen to this every morning when I was 15.

I hate misunderstandings

I hate when people misunderstand each other and end up getting mad and irritated at each other.

One of those days...

Sometimes you wake and it feels like you didn't sleep for 1 sec. You feel like you're having a 15 kg stone in the place of your head and that you just want to go back to bEd and sleep. This is one of those days...

I'm officially missing you

I just got home from my friends place. We had a great evening. We were going to watch a movie but since neither of us can shut up, we ended up talking about exes, funerals, death, love, life,... and listening to songs on youtube. We played all from that "the boy does nothing" chick from Mis-teeq to Jill Scott. That's when I remembered this beautiful song by Tamia: I'm officially missing you and I just had to listen to it now. Although maybe that's a bad choice, I should put on something louder and noisier to keep me awake coz I have some work to do for my dad and I recall myself telling him yesterday: "I'll do it first thing in the morning" so maybe it's time I get to it by now.

I'm officially missing you by Tamia

Back in the game!

Yes. I'm back in the game now. The blogging game. This is actually my 4th blog. Well, you know all good things are four. But there's a reasonable explanation to this:
My first blog: Le Metro was about the metro, which is a pretty restricted subject, in addition I stopped taking the metro when I moved so no more to write about.
My second blog: The Christmas Blog: about christmas. Not that interesting. In addition I had a very blue period so I stopped writing.
So after 2 failed attempts, I came up with a brilliant idea, write a blog were I could write about everything at the same time! Genius, isn't it? So I started my third blog. I wasn't that active at first until last week I decided to start writing again, and what happens? I forget my password and there's no way to get it back! I tried, you see, for a whole week, searching through my mind and piles of notes and papers without results. So, I decided to start a brand new one. This one.
