My life, if my Mp3 player could decide

So guys... I found this note on Facebook and just had to try it. And when I finished it.. .It looked rather... good actually haha...

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE? (redux)
So, here's how it works:

1.
Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)--> In my case this item would be my little Creative ZEN STONE since my computer will crash ( and it did) if I try to play any kind of music on it

2.
Put it on shuffle --> Where the fuck is that stupid button... *looksalloverthefuckingthing* aaaah on top... duh...

3.
Press play --> okey here we go guys

4.
For every question, type the song that's playing --> oh fuck so this is where people will get to know how limited my library is atm...great

5.
When you go to a new question, press the next button --> okey...sure can do:-)

6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool... --> okey I'll try.-)

Just something something

You know if i was a nice girl i think i wouldn’t have been here where i am at this moment in my life. Have you ever considered the possibility of everything if you’d just walked the other way then the way you chose? For me it’s like that every day. I don’t know why but meh… guess I’m just weird like that… Anyways… It’s been a while since I really blogged about something worth blogging about… I just don’t know what to write about… ugh seriously I hate writers block… GRRR

So… Lady GaGa is singing about Poker Face right now… Really.. that song is getting annoying…. Just because the radio stations are overplaying it… Esp NRJ…God I hate it when you start hating your favourite song, but I guess that’s just part of life. When where on the part of Radio and radio station can I just say… that NRJ( Energy hit music only). They don’t play hit songs anymore… they play whiny I love you be mine fucked up songs. They suck. I think the only good thing they’ve done for years is put in some commercial so we can relax our ears from “ I neeeeeeeeeed youuuuuuuuu” *throws up* Gawd… anyways… I don’t know how updated you guys are but you’ve probably heard about Chris Brown beating the shitzel out of pop “princess” Rihanna… well now the Norwegian NRJ board/leaders whatever you want to call them have decided to stop playing his songs and promote her for all cost. I hate it when a man hits a woman out of anger and several times without her consent ( keep in mind some people actually like being hit, in a limited and erotic role play, check out the web about BDSM.) You know how happy I was when they announced that??

I though I was gonna cry! NO MORE CHRIS BROWN! I FUCKING HATE R’N’B. I loved it before but people nowadays have ruined it. Absolutely ruined it! Sloppy lyrics, dead beat and the same message in all the songs. Pretty much sucks.

I wish they could start playing more rock, punk and metal on the radio.. but that’s not an option is it? Everything has to be either super old ( Elvis), super annoying ( Surfrosa, The Ting Tings) or just plain ( Beyonce etc etc etc). I want something more… something less shallow.But my wishes aren’t their command… ( rather annoying isn’t it!) Lets take over the world people!!! MOhahaha

Underestimated: Books

The Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J.R. Ward.

Let me just make this short. I think I've read the six published books about 5 times now and they still amaze me. I love vampires. I love sex. I love action. I love vulnerability and I love men. And these books... they got it all. Man if you're a huge Bram Stroker fan you shouldn't read them but.. I'm not... So I love them.

Basically the books are split up in six..for now. One for each warrior in the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Let me just quote from Wikipedia...

"The Black Dagger Brotherhood is an erotic paranormal romance series by author J. R. Ward. The series focuses on six vampire brothers and warriors who live together and defend their race against Lessers, de-souled humans who threaten their kind."

I just love them... can't help it. It sounds like those sexed up granny books but their not. There is real questions about life and death, right and wrong etc. If you look beyond the hot steaming sex you can see that Ward is actually trying to tell you something about yourself. Like she wants you to find your own path to do what you want to do. Love is very much a key in the book but also respect, life and the question about beliefs.

Ward has made her own paradise of men. Really she has. And the freaky things is.. that I want to fuck..each and every one of them.. Haha.. Weird. Anyways.. The characters are really interesting, not because their vamps but because of who they are.

Wrath is the king of all vampires, the last pureblooded undead on this earth. He is also almost blind.

Rhage aka Hollywood is said to be the most beautiful and the strongest of the brothers. He's also cursed. A repercussion of something he did, that hurt another.

Zsadist, the scarred and soulsess one. Kidnapped and raped by a cruel Mistress until his brother Phury saves him for which he earns himself a nice scar across his face. Has no trust in anybody, not even himself. "Ruined...not broken"

Butch: The human go vampire cop. Funny character with lots of personality. A usual...fuck up man. In love with someone he can never have, cursed by the Omega. The devil himself

Vishous: The male dominant vampire. Sexy as hell.. with a gift from his mother that would easily deep fry anyone.

Phury: Zsadist twin brother, shot his foot of when he saved Z from his mistress. Drug addict, plus he's pledged a vow to be celibate for his whole life.

There are lots of other charries involved but.. I can't be bothered with writing them all down.

I won't tell to much about the seires, just that I'm addicted. And people who know me know... that I would rather read a book like Narnia or The Davinci code then this.. So here are the books in the order you should read them:













There is a seventh book on the day and I can't wait till it's out. The title is set and here it is:

Lover Avenged



So... Don't think they're just...romantic jerk off books. There is really something special about them. Though I know I've probably not said enough to get you interested... But I just wanted to blog about something, so if you want to check them out a little closer go to http://www.jrward.com/index-books.html and read all about them:)

I have nothing more to say...

That's exactly how I've felt since last week. Like crying. Giving up. I feel so rejected and alone it isn't even fair. I don't know why, I just feel like giving up. Turn of the lights in my room and crawl up like a ball in my bed.

"Nobody cares about anything but them selfs...not really..."

This has been playing inside my mind for the whole day. It won't let go nor will it just pass...

I just know... I could really need a real friend right now...but nobody is stepping up to the task....

OWWWW and other chit chat

Yeah so yesterday I went to the dentist to get the last one of my wisdom teeth out. I knew it would be a tough situation but holy mother of hell.. I don't think I'll be able to open my mouth for about a year now... I hate going to the dentist. It's the smell and the noise that bugs me... Especially the sound of a tooth getting pulled out. It's a little cracking sound, not that bad but bad enough... I hate it. Along with all the instrument they use.. Needles, the dental drill, sponges, sucktion thingy and that little mirror they stick in when they ask you to open up. God I hate all that.. Not the dentist himself... Anyways.. So I pulled that fucking tooth and now I have a stitch in my mouth, along with a jaw that feels broken and the taste of blood on my tongue constantly. Yummy in my tummy... EW.

What else has been going on since I haven't blogged lately? Well I looked after a horse for a friend and it left. Not that I mind really. It was getting annoying, my car is still dead after I ran it dry for water in November, I'm off to look at a place I might by on Sunday, My computer is dying ( I've fried my hard drive) or so the Dell Service people told me.

Oh when we're on that subject let me tell you what happened just so you know..
I got a number for the service people I was supposed to call... So I dialed the number and was good to go. I found my Tag service number and waited for them to pick up. It took him about 3 minutes to answer so I was lucky first time around. Then he asked me to turn of my computer and run a basic test on it. So I did and it started to sing so loveeeeeely.. Not. " Oh there seems to be an error in you computer" he tells me. Stop right here. I know there is something wrong with it god damned it. That's why I called you. Well.. then he tells me to run another test, then write down all the error codes and call him back in about two hours. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT? CALL BACK? *GRUMBLES*
I hate people like that. Please hold then call back. Well I did what he said and ran the test. Took about 3 hours before it was finsihed. And then I decided to call back... whooopdy... I think I gave up on the fifth Britney Spears song... I hung up and called back the next day. This time he asked for the codes, which I gave, then asked me to HOLD THE LINE!!!!!!! again... gawd anyways when he came back after the second Backstreet Boys song he could inform me that there was an error in my hard drive and I had to replace it, he could send someone to do it for me or he could just send me the part I needed and I could do it myself. !!!! FUCK ME. I asked him if it was cheaper to get a new laptop but he couldn't answer that one. My computer is an DELL INSPIRON 6400. 3 years old. There are three lines through the LSD screen and... I don't have the blocks for the I or the E. Sorta annoying but it works.
So I'm buying a new toy.. hehe=)

Annyways.. I've also been surfing the net trying to find some books I want for my collection.. I found sooo many... From Homer to Tolkien.. so many=))
So if you've read any please tell me if I should give it a shot or just leave it alone:

* DUMAS, ALEXANDRE:COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO
* HOMER:ILIAD
* HOMER:ODYSSEY
* HUGO, VICTOR:LES MISERABLES
* JOYCE, JAMES:ULYSSES
* LOVE LETTERS OF GREAT MEN
* POE, EDGAR ALLAN:EDGAR ALLAN POE'S TALES
* STEINBECK, JOHN:OF MICE AND MEN
* TOLKIEN, J. R. R.:HOBBIT
* VERNE, JULES:AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS
* WILDE,OSCAR: PICTURE OF DORIAN GREY
* BRONTE,EMILY: Wuthering Heights

I don't really know why I want to read them I just want to .

Also.. I've started to write poems and stuff with a fountain pen. God it looks like crap but man.. I don't know why but there is such inspiration for me to write with it. I can go on and on and on and the words just.. i don't know.. flow out of me and turns into something so much more beautiful then what it was when I just wrote it out on the computer. It will take me time to learn how to write with it properly but it will definitely be worth the sacrifice.e
