...learn Spanish! AND maths! Gaaaaaahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On the better side of the news: SNOW! Heck yes! White goodness has finally delivered me from the dull greyness. *fingers crossed for snow on Christmas*
PS: My AC entry is coming along rather nicely and I am espescially fond of my background. I hope i will finish by tomorrow.
Sunday will be my grandfathers birthday, and since my grandparents live 400km away, I'll be gone for the weekend.
I will take my sketchbook though and maybe work up something that'll be worth showing on here Maybe something for Halloween *hint,hint* ^^
In the meantime, I'd like to play another round of "ask me anything!" with you. So, if you have a question, random, serious, philosophical, ask away! I'll answer every single one when I get back!
I'll be gone for the next 2 weeks with limited or no internet access, so, you can PM me, leave comments, just don't expect replies.
Take care everybody! (Especiallly my frequent online convo-pals, you guys rock!)
PS: I'll leave you a little gift for my time being gone

Yup, that's us ^^ We got to introduce ourselves in front of the class with Nicknames.
Our Professors are "Tank" and "Blacksmith" respectively. And no, this is not a joke!
This was an awesome first day. I look forward to getting really started next week!
I am not a fan of games that get released together with movies to boost sales figures, as a rule of thumb.
Production is often rushed to meet the deadline and as such those games are generally infested with bugs.
What a pleasant surprise the latest Prince of Persia was.
The game was released a bit earlier then the movie and the titular prince is not Jake Gyllenhaal, but the nameless Prince from the Sands of time trilogy.
Action takes place somewhere between Sands and Warrior within as far
First of all: LK, I read your blog and I just wanna say two things:
First of all I wanna thank you for having me over, and secondly that I was never at any moment annoyed with you (only concerned when you weere hiding in your room)
Now, live from Brickfair, it's VF reporting in. I can just say it is awesome. I talked to official Lego employees and I am hanging out with some of the most amazing people!
Or like Darth Vader said, this is the purgatory for Lego Fans!
I can't write any more...
This is propably one of the most random entries in my Blog yet. And no, I am in no deep psychological well trying to see the bottom clearly, that is reserved for philosophy class and other times. Before you pity me, just know I am quite happy while typing this and this is just me wanting to ask you (who bother to read my stuff here) something that's been bugging me since I was ten:
Do you pay attention to your surroundings and the people around you?
If yes, you certainly know the following
On December 12th, Shire-year 2010 in the 3rd age of middle-earth, 9 companions will set out to view all three LotR-movies in one night.
And we'll have snacks and lots of caffeine for the night until we get out of the cinema around 4-ish.
Good times are ahead ^^
So this morning I actually woke up before my alarm clock because of some sort of inner unrest or something...which is quite amazing considering that I've spent the last two weeks sleeping in at about 2am, waking up at 6.30, waking 8hours straight and then repeating the process while still working on art and working out in the afternoon...how did I survive that?
Guess I sound pretty self-destructive now...
One quick word of advice before I rush over to the bathroom again:
Don't combine Pasta and Tuna with Doughnuts a chicken-sandwich and orange/chocolate-cookies.
*runs off to great the bowl again*
Listen to me kids...
Toa of Kenn just linked me this:
A TV special on the inner workings of Bionicle
It's a german TV feature on the design and production of the 2008 Bionicle sets from start to finish, including the reaction of the kids that test it.
Get a unique look at the Prototypes.
And to wrap this awesome short entry up: My favourite statement has to be the little boy that says "Before the only had sword, and now there is weapons that can fire...like pumpguns. Bang Bang, you know!"
Explains a lot
There you are, totally immersed in the movie happening in front of your eyes and then this happens:
*Light goes on, a guy is standing next to the controls*
"Excuse me, everbody!"
*Stops movie*
"But we've got a problem and we have to clear out the whole building."
But everybody got a free ticket to come back another day...
Dangit...upset stomach and generally being sick.
Would be no big deal, except my work offers a whole new range of possible infections I might have caught...
Raaaaaagh!
No, not the Pilgrim movie, that's a close second, I'm talking bout the project us gamedesigners at my college are currently working on
Stay tuned for more info ^^ I'll try to post a collage of all the chara-designs by the start of next week!
I just wanted to drop a quick entry here to explain a bit of inactivity from my side here.
School was keeping me busy and right now there are some issues that need to be taken care of. I need to get my routine back and increase my sleeping hours.
Midnight as average doesn't work...
I keep getting late too school ( not missing classes, but usually I am just in after the teacher arrives and at the frequency I hav now it is really bugging my classmates and me the most).
So I might be off earl
To put a famous quote here:
DON'T PANIC!
It is far from being a Pandemic. The reported cases are people who have been in Mexico and are already in hospitals for it and they are conducting checks in airports.
Just remember when your mommies all told you: Wash your hands, don't sneeze without putting your hand up and don't touch everything around.
You'll all be just fine ^^
The media needed something else to get hyped over besides the financial crisis.
Peace out.
Little Update entry. The Lappy is now running on Windows 7 Professional ^^
Already feels good. It's going to be a long night, but totes worth it!
Also if you read this entry you are required to go to a friends profile (not me, somebody from your list you care about) and give them a hug. We need more of those!
So what does VF do in his afternoons...if you say he's drawing geek stuff, that's definitely right but just a part of the activities.
He does play 1st Bugle in a Brass Orchestra as well ^^
And sometime in September we recorded our first CD!
And I thought I'd share a treat with you...you should all know it.

And yes, the Solo trumpet in "The Medallion Calls"-part of the Medley is me.
PS: Thanks to Nuhrii the Metruan for uploading this
Enjoy!
I felt the big big need to put Nano on hold for a day and play through the 2008 Prince of Persia game again, which I only noticed yesterday, I never tried out on my newer PC, where it runs pretty smooth these days.
So, I just finished it an hour ago and again this feeling of a wasted opportunity has struck me.
What I did remember from the first play-through was the time it took to finish.
It is a really beautiful world Ubisoft created here, very innovative too and the basic plot was esta
