Quick update and a confession : I am a tad obsessed with making GIFs

Feb 18, 2012 20:07

Howdy y'all ! My life is quite uneventful, I don't do much, mainly I just have some Master's classes (now there's a break, exams are over) and some German classes .
Yes, I started re-learning German, did 4 years of it in middle school but abandoned it cause I hated the teacher and it made me hate not the language but the grammar, and now I thought it would be a good idea to start again since I seem to be going there on shorter or longer trips quite often and I have more contact in general with the language so it's easier to learn and remember what I once knew. I like it so far, the classes are twice a week at a German institute and the teacher we have is very nice ,the method of teaching is fun and modern and ....active instead of the countless theories and grammar we did in school.
Other than that....well I guess nothing exciting is going on, I am sure it's not exciting to hear about my random outings with one friend or the other at Starbucks, the Mall, movies or random pubs haha.

The gif situation now lol ! I think I will turn this love of gifs into a theme, I'll make gif posts, more organized than this one, themed. If you have suggestions of things you want to see, please share them with me. I can make gifs(not terribly complicated ones because I don't like wasting hours to change all sorts of things and settings and make them look unreal) of history related stuff (I have tons of WWII related documentaries) , tv shows like Fringe, Supernatural, Alcatraz, The Walking Dead, Grimm, Survivor, The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family ,Game of Thrones, Dr Who.


I give you some random GIFs . I think by the time I finish this ,the post will include some random gifs of : Erwin Rommel(The Desert Fox), Winston Churchill, WWII era planes (mostly Luftwaffe) cause I like vintage aviation, a few Survivor(yes, the CBS reality show) gifs, maybe one or two Supernatural gifs, other history related gifs.

I don't know how many people in my f-list are interested in history and particularly the history of modern wars but I would like to share my passion with y'all . My life is not that exciting , some

Ok, let's get started so u have an idea :

1. Erwin Rommel (Desert Fox, Generalfeldmarschall ,commander of the renowned Afrikakorps -among others- and the proud owner of an adorable ,gif-able face)
