Quite possibly the best rapper ever to walk the face of the Earth tbh. You should also check out 'Take U To Da Movie'. Instant classic. Forget Eminem and Jay-Z. This is the real deal.
So guess what you guys! I'm about to start week 9 our of 10 of this term! How fucking crazy isn't that? Personally, I cannot believe it. Seriously, I am pretty damn shocked my this relvelation I had. Week 9. You know what that means? In a week, I will start my last week in the last 'official' and proper term at uni. Mental, that is what it is! We will hopefully get our exam timetable this up-coming week, so I will finally be able to plan my summer a bit more and find out how I'm going to do the Euro + Exam thing. I hope I have my exams really early, just so I can be finished with them and so I do not have anything else to worry about except for tripping on my robe during graduation and not finding a place to stay while in Kyiv.
Because yeah, that thing called Graduation is coming up really soon! For those of you who don't know it, I'll be graduating on the 17th of July at 2:30 pm I believe it is. We got an email the other day about it. So I have now booked my place and got my mum a ticket for the event. But for those of you who can't be there in person, but who want to get in the action, you can still watch them mess up my name! Amazing news isn't it? Because I'm sure you all would very much love to watch me stumble across the stage, red-faced as hell. It will be glorious and not to be missed. So you are probably wondering how this is fact possible? Well, my dear friends, Lancaster University has an online stream that shows the graduation cermonies all over the world! Yes, it is magnificent, no? Anyway, I shall come back with more news about this as it is actually approaching, cannot be bother by doing it now.
There isn't a lot happening here in lancaster at the moment, at least not with me. I don't have time for silly student life things at this point. And that is actually sadly true. I have so much to do that I hardly have time to breathe! But so far, I've got it under control, I just need to stick to my plan, which though I have never been any good at, i will just have to do. There is no other option. Except for joining the circus. Because that is still my back-up plan if everything else fails!
I have to go to the learning zone again to day with Pia, as I am suppose to finish up this essay for this week. Its 4000 words, so I better get started to be honest. But ugh, I'm so fed up with Le'Zone at the moment! Pia and I have spent our whole weekend in there, just trying (and failing) to work. it's dreadful. But it has to be done so...
Labrinth at The Sugarhouse
Oh, we also went to see Labrinth on Sunday at the Sugarhouse! Though he didn't come until 3 hours later than expected, the show was really good. I really enjoyed watching him preform. For those of you who don't know who it is, it is this guy, check him out below. He even did a little jingle with his guitar, which was quite cool. I'd deffo go and see him preform again, once he has released his album. Another person I'd love to see is Tinie Tempah. I really love Tinie Tempah, he is awesome, and probably would be quite good like. Damn me, moving back to Norway! And who will I go to concerts and shit with now, when I'm moving to a place where I have no friends?! Christ, I haven't thought about this no friends aspect yet. Ah bugger!
Oh, shit, I better get going actually! lecture ahead! Much love, Keisha x
Earthquake ft Tinie Tempah by Labrinth on Grooveshark
Right, I don't have just one song, but I have three... because they all sort of fit together with this story that i read once. One of my favourites in all the world. Sometimes just thinking about that fic makes me cry, and I'm being totally serious. It just broke my heart in to pieces, and that is why I love it with all my heart. Seriously, just looking through it now, almost makes me feel sick. if you want to read it, you can find it here. i'd recommend it. you'll get a peak into my favourite fandom and my otp! jajajajaja!
Okay, so here they are:
I could sleep forever these days because in my dreams I see you again But this time fleshed out fuller face in your confirmation dress It was so like you to visit me to let me know you were ok It was so like you visit me, always worrying about someone else
and if you were with me tonight, i’d sing to you just one more time. a song for a heart so big, god wouldn’t let it live.
I just read it again now... I thought I wasn't going to cry this time, but here i am; tears rolling down my cheeks and a runny nose. The last part of it always gets to me. Always. Maybe its just me, maybe my imagination is just too active, but to me, she has written this so perfectly that i just feel everything as if i was the one who lost someone, you know? I can't really explain it to be honest. I just... it just makes me feel so much. You can just identify with Fernando... or at least I can. You know that feeling when something is just so horrible and so sad and your chest feels so so tight that you can't breathe and all you want to do is throw up? that's how it makes me feel.
But yeah, these three songs have a tendency of making me really emotional, but not only because of this fic, but just in general. They are all rather sad. i have never really been a huge fan of Snow Patrol, I'm still not to be honest, but this song, in the quiet hours of the night can move me to tears. again, with my imagination... i just imagine the situation, and put my self in it, and as i'm listening to that song, it is happening to me... i don't know how to explain in another way.
This fic is the reason i started listening to Bloc Party, actually. I heard Signs, but I didn't actually like it the first time, because i couldn't hear the lyric properly, but now, as you might now, it is one of my all time favourite songs. I simply don't understand how people cannot like this song. it is impossibly beautiful, and utterly sad. And i, of course, love Bloc Party. they have really meaningful lyric in general, which is my cup of tea. i wish they would have a reunion!
Here You Me is incredibly sad. Like Signs, it was written for a friend who died, I believe (but i'm not 100% sure so you know), and that makes it really powerful.
They are all perfect funeral songs really... and they are all my favourite songs... i'm not sure what that actually says about me... a bit worrying!
lørdag 16. juli 2011
I don't have anything of interest to say, so I'm going to leave a quote from one of my favourite songs here for you lot to stare at, because I'm nice like that.
Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
Just keep telling me facts
And keep making me smile
Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
I get tongue-tied
Baby, you've got to be more discerning
I've never known what's good for me
Baby, you've got to be more demanding
I will be yours
I'll pay for you anytime
This Modern Love - Bloc Party
They are quickly becoming one of my favourite bands this summer.
Way to start of my post on a depressing note. . . But whatever, it's from my favourite song by Bloc Party called 'Signs', so I don't really care. It's like, amazyn, no? You kind of just want to hug it.
And the last line? It's a totally killer, seriously. "I believe in anything that brings you back home to me" its so sad, no?But I could quote the whole song, because its just so beautiful. Like the first verse...
Two ravens in the old oak tree, one for you and one for me
Bluebells in the late December, I see signs now all the time
The last time we slept together, there was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me but I'm the one that's drowning now
Anyway! There hasn't been that much happening since I got back home. I've mostly been at home, practising my Español, like all the cool kids. At the moment I have been trying to learn the time and random tourist stuff, like when does this and that open, how much does it cost blah blah blah. Its fun though, and I understand more and more. Right now, I'm side-reading an article over at Macra about De Gea's move to (ugh, I hardly want to say it) Man United. Oh well, at least now I have some man-candy to look at (it was about time, Man United. How the hell does a club have that many unattractive men? smh). Anyway, the article just said stuff like; he passed the medical over at Man United, that he was very bery happy to be there and that stuff. It's a great chance for him though, and the I'm happy for the future La Roja Furia goalie. He's only 20, you know. And he, like, is going to be Man United's first goal keeper. Now that's impressive. I'm kinda sad he's leaving Atleticó though... His farwell to the club was touching, as he was fighting to hold back tears.
But like I said, I've been practising my Spainish everyday since I got home, and I find it really fun. I have yet to learn the hard stuff of course, like grammar and that, but I've downloaded a grammar thingy from ISLA, a language school in Salamanca, which I'm considering, and I'll have a look at that tomorrow or something. But I suppose it's one thing learning it on your own and to actually speak to other people. My wall is very non-treathing tbh.
Is it just me or does he have freakishly long fingers in this picture? O.o
I've hung out with both Maria and Gina, which is always lovely. I went to the opening performance for Festspillene i Nord-Norge on the Saturday I came home with Maria and her mum. It was really good. It was like, this street dance performance of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. It was seriously good, and the people in it were really talented. I also went to see Kråkesølv live, which is my favourite Norwegian band. They are from the north, and are quite possible the most charming band ever. Their cover of Karpe Diem's Snøhvit is seriously good, and people should check it out.
Also, I've come to the conclusion that more people need blogs, or they need to tell me about their blogs, because I feel like i'm seriously out of the loop right now. So GET YOURSELF A BLOG!
I'm gonna post two enties on this one, because I couldn't choose between the two songs. SafetySuit's 'Gone Away'.
I think about life, and oh how it changes so fast
And oh how it's so hard to last here waiting for something to give
I think about time, a luxury so hard to find
And I just can't figure out why I wasted it all here without you
But I'll be fine, and oh don't you worry
Cause I'll be fine, see I'm in a hurry to be
Gone away awhile, tell me all the things that I
I'll be missing here in this old life man cause I just don't know
I think about you, and all the times that we shared
And oh what a wonderful pair we made made it so far here we go again
I think about love, and oh what a beautiful song
And oh how it need to be sung here sing it so loud all the world can hear
I think I'll be
Gone away awhile, tell me all the things that I
I'll be missing here in this old life man cause I just don't know
But I'll be fine, oh don't you worry
Cause I'll be fine, see I'm in no hurry
No I'll be fine, oh don't you worry
Cause I'll be fine, see I'm in a hurry to be
Gone away awhile, tell me all the things that I
I'll be missing here in this old life man cause I just don't know
I started watching Supernatural again. I don't know why I ever stopped as its one of my favourite shows. It has everything from action and comedy to really attractive men. I mean, OH HELLO Sam! So weird seeing him as sweet and annoying Dean in Gilmore Girls, to you know, not so sweet and annoying, but very attractive man. I am missing vintage Sam however, because I'm not too fond of badass Sam with no compassion. Besides, as much as I like semi long hair on guy (something that developed after I fell in love with Sergio Ramos, of course), I think it's time for a hair cut bro. YES, I LIKE MY BOYS PRETTY, sue me. (though plz don't cause I'm only living on my student loan.)
But anyway, I kinda wish they weren't brothers because then i would totally ship them. But they are, and incest is never cool. Not even in Game of Thrones. Which btw, has a lot of it. It's a good series though, I really like it.
In other newsish things not a lot has been happening. i've been drinking coffee. I've written a drunken rant about the CL inc with Barca hate. I've written the most heart breaking chapter so far. I also read the most heart breaking chapter. It was really horrible to read because now... I don't know what's gonna happen. Because the two characters have jusr fucked each other up so so badly, and now, now they both just broke and yeah...
I've made some new friends over the weekend though, so hurraz for that. I also met a random Norwegian guy and he got me a veggie burger when we headed home because I didn't have any money. And I know someone how also lives on rice with soya sauce. Fuck yeaah! Because no one here seems to have rice with soya sauce, and I'm like, what? It's soya sauce, it's quite normal to have with rice I think, no?
And like, while we're on the topic of rice, I have now started to use my paella rice, because my basmati is gone. And it was weird like 'cause it is basically like pudding rice. Actually, it's the same rice. So it felt like I was eating grøt you know, just with soya sauce. It was nice though like, because it's rice. It's just really thick. Which of course is why it's used for dishes like paella in Spain. I have to make it when I get home me thinks, its just so nice.
Safetysuite is still like, the playlist that is constantly on when I'm only my laptop. The more I listen to them, they more I like them. Now i even like the song 'Annie', which I hated before.
I really want to go home now. I can't wait to be home. If I could go today, I would.
Also, if anyone wanna go somewhere this summer or whatever, let me know! I'm up for traveling anyday. Otherwise i'll probably and hopefully just end up going to Spain for the language course thing. We'll see. Pia y I are also thinking of Ibiza. Lol, I know right? But, I feel like it's one of those places every student should visit at least once in their lives. Anyone who want to join, please do! I think it would be pretty epic to go there, no? Besides, Ibiza isn't just partying, it's really a beautiful place and has lots of things to see and do (tihi). One could even do some celeb spotting (okay, I mean football hotties spotting, but would you really complain if you say Cesc Fabregas? He's single now as well, just, you know, so you know). So yeah, you should totally join us.
Um. Okay, I have nothing else to write now. So i'm gonna watch another episode of Supernatural because yeah. There's nothing for me to do yet. And like, I need to straighted my hair, and so I might as well watch supernatural in the mean time, no?
Edit: i totally failed to mention that it was (now) Captain Fantastic's birthday yesterday. Celebrating with this awsome macro.
