Monday is definitely my new favourite day of the week. Yesterday I spent the whole day with Tati, mostly playing Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance together. We arrived at the Symphony of Sorcery world, and let me tell you, the game would be worth its price even for that world alone. It's the world of Fantasia, the Disney movie, and you get to walk through highly detailed landscapes from the Centaurs sequence (Symphony #6 by Beethoven) and the Nutcraker Suite scene. While you fight, the original suites play in the background, all the way from start to end, and the keyblades make violin sounds. While climbing a tree in the scene with the Autumn Fairies, Riku's footsteps played actual notes on the leaves. At one point Sora had to run through the stormy greek country, avoiding Zeus' lightning, towards the director's stand where he could bring the sun back.
We both agreed this is the most beautiful Kingdom Hearts world since Hollow Bastion. We're both in love with the original Fantasia movie, we know it by heart, and we both adore Beethoven and Tchaikovsky. Needless to say, we were teary-eyed throughout that whole world. 10/10 from us to this game, and we haven't even finished it yet!
This morning I watched Teen Wolf 2x09 while having breakfast. Watch Teen Wolf, they said. It's fun and lighthearted, they said. During that scene with Stiles and his dad I got actual tears in my eyes. When did this show get so compelling and beautiful? And it's so LGTB-friendly, I want to hug the whole cast and writers and producers. ♥
Halfway through, the mailman rang, and it was another package from the USA, way ahead on schedule. It usually takes a month for anything to get here from the States, I wonder what happened. Anyway, it was these two beautiful guys:
Why yes, it's Sherlock and John, with the skull and John's laptop too. They are made of felt, and have little buttons for eyes, and they're so sweet and soft and adorable I instantly reverted to a six-year-old girl, cooing and squeeing. Just look at them! *________*
Bonus picture, because if I have my camera in hand I have to take bonus pictures, my very personal tea cupboard:
Look at them! So pretty and tasty, yessshhh. There's chamomile, green tea and herbal tea in the boxes in the background, you never know.
Tomorrow I'll have to go to the doctor because I had miscalculated, I finished my pills and I thought I had another box left. Which I didn't, and I blame it on the heat messing up with my brain, because I usually never get it wrong. I'm not really looking forward to spending two hours in my doctor's waiting room, but I'm happy at the idea of getting to talk with him sooner than I thought. ^^
