luinaldaI actually intent to update at least once a week, but apparently I can't even manage that... *fails*
But a miracle happened: I'm finally getting LJ notifs again! Woohoo! *lol* Getting loads of messages that were lost during these last few weeks now is a bit anoying though. Thanks, LJ. :p
A Happy St. Paddy's Day to everyone who cares for that kind of thing. :-)
Anyone here who celebrates it? I'm trying to think of some Irish/Ireland-related movies or TV shows I could watch later. Divorcing Jack, maybe? Father Ted? *ponders*
And I wore a green jumper for school today. :D No shamrocks though. *gg*
Speaking of school... We're in the middle of our 2-week test period at the moment. *eek*
Things aren't actually going too well for me. *sighs* Especially today's "Redacción de carta" (letter writing) as well as the "Specific Translation: German-English" yesterday were a complete disaster. :-( Spanish oral/interpreting today wasn't that great either...
As of now I only hope I somehow survive tomorrow (English interpreting *panics*) and the next week! All fingers crossed would be much appreciated. ;-)
Still don't have my new laptop. :-( It wouldn't boot anymore, so we had to give it back to have it checked/fixed. Hope they hurry, but it might take up to 3 weeks... Damn.
And in TV news:
The German DVD of Primeval series 4 will be released on 27 May. YAY!!! \o/ I'm really looking forward to that. :-) So I don't have to buy the UK version after all (I wouldn't have had a problem with that of course, but I already have the German releases of series 1-3, so... ;-)).
I'm halfway through Supernatural's season 5 now. There might be a slight chance for me to be all caught up before season 6 ends, after all. :D *lol*
And, after all the things I heard about it thanks to the FMM (Damn you! *lol* And I still wanted Eleven to win! *pouts*), I decided to give Community a try. ;-) So I watched the whole first season within 3 days (could have easily made that 2, but I had to at least pretend to be learning a little for my tests *lol*). I wasn't that enthusiastic about it at first, tbh. Didn't really think it was very funny either... But in the course of the season the characters have really grown on me. :-) I think my favourites are Abed, Jeff and Annie. And Troy might be up there with them soon, too. *g* But they're all great really.
And the paintball episode (1x23 "Modern Warfare") sure was awesome!! :D
Also, I just loved this scene. <3

Oh, you're that kind of person, too? :P I have many shows of which I started to buy the German dvds. Now, I think, I could get more of those shows from UK, cheaper and faster, as not all seasons of various shows have been released here, right? Anyway, actually, it wouldn't matter whether I have the German version or the UK one, as I'm only watching the English version anyway. But I still struggle to... "mix" the English and German boxes. Although it wouldn't matter at all, right? Am I making sense at all?? LOL I'm that weird, yes. :P
Aww, the Feivel song! :P

Date: 2011-03-17 07:50 pm (UTC)I didn't get any notifs for more than 2 weeks. *rolleyes* Really hope it's back to normal now...
Thank you! I'm losing more and more hope about "doing fine", so I can use all the good luck I can get. *lol*
Haha. That makes perfect sense. :D I feel exactly the same. ;-) I always want to continue buying the German boxes if I started with them, but if there is no hope for further releases (e.g. Will & Grace seasons 4-8 *waves fist*) I give in to buying the UK versions eventually. If you know what I mean. *g*
Yes, it is. :D Although, even though they called their mouse Feivel (and I actually understood the name reference!), I totally didn't get that until I read about it afterwards... *doh* Ah well, I have seen "An American Tail" only this one time in the cinema when I was about 6, so that counts as an excuse, right? :p Time for a rewatch, methinks. *g*

I haven't seen Divorcing Jack in ages! A friend and I quote it often, but now it's been so long since we saw it I'm not actually sure the quote is right. :-)
