luinalda: (DW - 11 xmas)
Wow, haven't updated in ages it seems... :-( Mainly because I don't have much to say (nothing new there *lol*), but also because this time of year is always quite busy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A big thanks to [livejournal.com profile] spirited_lizard! I received your card today. :-) It's really cute plus I love the mini!advent calendar. <3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm gonna spend New Year's this year with my friend in Berlin again! *squee* It didn't happen last year (sadly), so I'm very happy about it. \o/ I'll be away from 27 Dec until 3 Jan. :-) My aunt + uncle are taking me along to Berlin in their car as they are going to see a musical there, and then I'll get home by train next year.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lots of new stuff was being had in the last couple of weeks. :D


I'm lovin' Professor Layton (the series is actually one of my favourite for NDS!) and Mario Kart 7 (had never played a game of the series before. So. much. FUN!!! :D)! <3 Haven't had a go at Kingdom Hearts: Recoded and the Runaway game yet though...


Love him. And finally found this DVD for a good bargain price. :-)


<3<3<3

And some presents I got for St. Nicholas' Day:


Yay!!! :D


Reindeer "Jingle" <3


chocolate! *yummy*

Also got 3 dishcloths and a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream <3.
So all in all a pretty good haul for the occasion. ;-) We usually only give each other a trifle...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In TV news: I'm finally all caught up with Primeval. \o/ About bloody time too I'd say. *lol* Also watched the Warehouse 13 Christmas Special yesterday (which was good!), so I'm all up-to-date with that that too, as well as with The Big Bang Theory and Community. I'm afraid I'm way behind with everything else though... O_O *ahem*
Next goal is to catch up with Doctor Who series 6 before the Christmas Special. :D I've got 7 episodes left and 11 days, so it should be doable. *g* ;-)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And last but not least: This is the last call to everyone who still wants a Christmas card from me. If you let me have your address until tomorrow afternoon at the latest you'll still get a card from me. :-) Then everything will be send off! ;-)

luinalda: (Community - Jeff checkmate)
They are showing the first season of Warehouse 13 on German TV at the moment (2 episodes in a row every Wednesday). I started watching it out of curiosity and I must say that I really like it. :-)
The last two aired episodes were "Claudia" (1x04) and "Elements" (1x05). I had missed the pilot episode due to the Hugh Laurie concert, but just watched that one too (Yay for the internet! ;-)). Very enjoyable show with cool characters. :D Will definitely continue watching and probably get the DVDs when they are released over here. 
Oh, and nice to see Joe Flanigan in episode "Elements" btw. <3 Took me a bit by surprise though. *g* When I switched back after commercials and saw him, I thought for a few seconds that I had the wrong channel and was in some SGA rerun or something. *lol* (And yes, I should have noticed then that he wasn't wearing a uniform. :p *gg*)

Also watched the Community season 2 paintball finale. Which was pretty awesome! I especially loved the first part, "A Fistful Of Paintballs". <3 The opening credits sequence was already epic and it had Sawyer Black Rider. *yays* :D But the Star Wars themed "For A Few Paintballs More" was quite cool, too. Abed as Han Solo = ♥

And on an unrelated note I'd like to thank [livejournal.com profile] baka_yu for the vgift! *hugs*

luinalda: (Community - Abed come with me)
- I'm all caught up with Community. Hooray! *g* All in all I liked season 1 a little better than season 2, but I'm still enjoying it. :-) And I think next week the hiatus is finally over. *yay*
My favourite episode of season 2 (so far) is "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" (2x14). So cool! :D

- Finally got round to starting with Hawaii Five-0 (the remake, obviously) and watched the first 2 episodes yesterday. And what can I say... I think I'm loving it already! <3 Really, really entertaining! Plus a beautiful location and a very cool cast. :-)


So, hello new fandom. :D I definitely need 1-2 icons of the show (any recs for comms?), even though I'm almost out of free icon space already... *whines*

- Also watched the first 2 episodes of season 6 of Supernatural yesterday. Not sure if I'll finish catching up until next week (the hiatus is over then, right?)... but I'm quite confident I can at least make it until the week after that. :D

luinalda: (Sherlock - dear diary)
I 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
