Back home and unemployed..
Yes! We are back from Thailand. And let me tell ya, I ain't happy 'bout it. Who would want to go back to a cold country where I have no job, nothing fun to do, no diving sites around..just plain 'ol borin' Pennybridge..
Kinda depressed..but guess that happens right? lol Want to go away immidiatley..perhaps the reason I haven't really unpacked? Lol, it's been almost a week and my stuff is still on the floor, or in piles over other already-there-all-year-around-piles...or I'm just being lazy..
Need to find a new goal - next trip is def one..but I really want a skiing trip to the hills up north. Seems everyone else already done it or can't :(
Soo..Trainhoppin' around Europe for Summer of 2011, yes? Who's comin'?!? :D
6 weeks in Thailand is a must for everyone! or atleast months at a time..totally worth it, and totally affordable :P
We made it to the Full Moon Party in Koh Phangan, were at Chaweng Beach on Koh Samui for New Years Eve, we were at Koh Tao for Christmas and took our Diving certificates(best thing I have ever done!) and been Bangkok-inhabitats riding the Skytrain, shopping on Siam Square, MBK and Khao San Road, and, the most memorable in Bangkok - the Ping-Pong Show..! Google it if you don't know what it is(Beware!..it's def not for the prudish for sure!) lol..
Gosh, the things I've learned and experienced during this trip. I've even learned things about myself, and I'm proud of myself that I have done this trip. :)
More of this pleaaase! lol, have to find a job now for it to happen ^^
I HATE looking for a job, and talking to those people, but whatev. I'm just scared ;)
Ok so since I've been home(got home last tuesday, the 25th) i've been updating myself, and more importantly been searching for new music and o/c then listening to it. As you might know - music is what keeps me going, what makes me move forward, is something profound that I need..almost like the air I breathe. I would slip away if I went deaf. Just sayin' how important music is to me - to listen to since I can't play myself(which I deeply regret, but never is too late, I know :)) ok so back to the actual music lol
Best albums of January 2011:
this year has already started off great with:
¤ Iron & Wine's new album "Kiss Each Other Clean". Epicness. With songs like "Walking away from Home", "Me and Lazarus", "Tree By the river", "Half Moon" and my slowly-coming-to-be favorite song: "Big Burned Hand" - you just can't miss this album!
¤ Bruno Mars debut album "Doo-Woops and Hooligans". Love the singles o/c "Just the way you are" and awsome new "Grenade", but also "Marry You".
Songs:
¤ this february or early march Lykke Li comes out with a new album(long overdue if you ask me..;)) "Wounded Rhymes" but she has released already "Get Some" and recently "I Follow Rivers". The latter one gave me actual chills when I saw her performing it live on the swedish award show P3 Guld, and more so listening to it on YT! I've embedded it for ya :) (non-interesting fact: Lykke Li is my age..! weeeird :S)
..and browsing the Tube I find cool things: Sing-a-long! lol :D
¤ Then I saw this thing, referred from livejournal actually(my friends-page), and this had me big eyed! Loooved it! So I just had to look up the songs from it. and they are gooood songs!
But see the vid first :) 1st minute is THE best! The remix of Ratatats and Kanyes song is golden! download link on yt page!
"1,2, let me see what you can do" and "power..and control" pssst! look for Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson ;)
and so the songs are:
1. Ratatat - Nostrand - http://tinyurl.com/2ahhhj9
2. Kanye West - Power - http://tinyurl.com/27mpo83
3. Rooney - Not In My House - http://tinyurl.com/23vpakx - coool song by an already favorite band of mine :D, listen to "I Can't get Enough" from same album "Not In my House" is from - Eureka
4. Apartment - Fall Into Place - http://tinyurl.com/2fnsnkc
5. Civil Twilight - Letters from the Sky - http://tinyurl.com/2fwrlys - band from South Africa, and the lead singer looks like Rob! LOL!
6. SUNBEARS! - Little Baby Pines - http://tinyurl.com/26d9brn - unsigned band, but recognized already.
I'm totally impressed with what the guy does - he don't even work as a trailermaker or anything..which he should..imo atleast.
Love all the songs too. Apartment song has me in a flux - aswell as Civil Twilight song..that one is soooo beautiful! Almost makes me cry..
anyway, thats Januarys new-tunes update for ya :) Might come a february one ;)
Soo...flicks??
Yeah, so on the plane to Thailand, they had Remember Me..so that I whatched. and some other flicks I can't remember..
But on the flight home I saw
¤ "Wall Street: money never sleeps" - baad movie, but Carey Mulligan delivers perfectly.
¤ Then "Megamind" - not in 3D but on a 7" screen on the seat in front of me. Fun one. Thought throughout the hole film that the superhero-that-dies in the beginning (Metroman) was George Clooney, but it was Brad Pitt..! hehe.
¤ Then "Life as we Know it" had me entertained. I loved that chick-flick/romcom! Izzie Stevens and Danny McCoy are by themselves actors I looove. and together they were perfect :) Predictable stuff, but believable and I looove it b/c of great acting, and suuuch a cuute kid!
..Ooh and heyyyy. We saw Gullivers Travels in 3D(!)in Bangkok! Weird experience, they showed a vid honoring their King, during which everyone in the theatre was standing up...! LMAO!!! But nice of the Thaipeople to have such loyalty and devotion to their King.
But the best seats I've ever experienced in a theatre, and the biggest soft drinks I've ever seen! And weird cheese flavored popcorns..not sure of what I think of the popcorns..Anyway, Best 3D i've ever seen aswell, and the movie itself was ok bordering to good. :)
Water For Elephants is soon out!!! Yaayyyyy! April 22nd!
OH HELL!! Almost forgot - Red Riding Hood starring Amanda Seyfried comes out in theaters March 11th!!! :D:D Excited as hell! Catherine Hardwicke is remaking Twilight but with a bigger wallet..how will that go one wonders..I'm going to the premier that is for sure though :P
ok that's it! See yaa!
