Dani's Journal

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 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! ;-)

Well, LJ finally seems to be back to normal. Hooray!! \o/

I was gonna post some more photos from during our living room renovation last week, but LJ was still quite a bit wonky at the time so I didn't... And now there's no need to anymore as the room's more or less finished (apart from a few little things like skirting boards). ;-) Also, the photo wallpaper thingy finally arrived yesterday. *yay* So as soon as we'll have that on the wall I'll take some pictures to show you. :-)


Bought some more My Blue Nose Friends stuff lately. <3 Guess I'm officially obsessed with them now. *lol*
But I can't help it, they are just too cute!!
( N'awww )
Also bought another plushie on Ebay, but it's from an UK seller so it might take a couple of days longer to arrive.
Luckily I'm all out of money now, so I can't buy any more for a while... ;-) *gg*


I'm about to finish my Warehouse 13 Season 1 DVDs this evening. Just 2 more episodes to go. I really like this show a lot. :-) It's so much fun and I think I actually like all the characters (so far).
Oh, and I might have squeed a little at the sight of Mark Sheppard in episode 10, because I had totally forgotten that he was a guest star in the show. *gg* Definitely looking forward to seeing more of him in the next season. *yeah*
I'd really like to have a few Warehouse 13 icons, but I don't have any free icon space left at the moment. *boohoo* Guess I'll have to delete some old icons I don't use that often anymore eventually... *sighs* ;-)

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 baka_yu for the vgift! *hugs*
