Off to Barcelona tomorrow.

After that it's Prague and..um Brussels. *slides down in chair* Don't hate me. The point is, I'm going to be internet-less during that time :(. I shall also not be able to write anything since I don't have one of those little laptops like my dad has. *cries*

I bought a couple of CDs of Elizabethan music yesterday and can't stop listening to them. I should have bought more (do you ever get the feeling that your parent is glaring disapprovingly over your shoulder when you're spending too much money?). The world also keeps shifting on me because I took a boat ride and that always takes my body a couple of days to sort out.

I need to pack, shower, write, and watch Elizabeth. And sleep. Must remember to sleep.

Wow, that sounds crazy, and awesome. Crazy awesome. And I promise not to hate you if you come back and tell us all about it. And take lots of pictures.

Oh lord, all the time. And probably will for the rest of my life.

It is crazy, especially given my current health crisis (and I'm getting my period), but there's no more time left, so it has to be all right after the other. I don't know when I'm going to sleep.

It's horrible, isn't it. And my dad's an economist, so he's extra financially conscious.

Wow! Barcelona and Brussels sounds awesome! I hope you have fun.

Also, Elizabeth...I keep being tempted to watch it again. But I'd need to rent it. Hm.

Thanks. I hope so, too. *glares at stomach*

I never get tired of it. Cate Blanchett and CE? Hoe can I resist that?

I might prefer The Golden Age just a little bit more. I was mesmerized by Elizabeth/Cate's costumes and the way the color palette progresses from light to dark symbolizing the approaching crisis.

Uh. My Mom is actually a bit of an enabler. I always joke she would have been a top personal shopper: when she's around, I seem to have the tendency to find more clothes I like and/or be more willing to buy. My Dad is the other side of the scale. He's always "but do you really need more shoes"?

I'm the other way, myself. I found the love triangle quite weak. I find it hard to be drawn in by visuals when the story doesn't appeal to me. I do prefer the TGA score, though. It's more dramatic.

Really? I wonder what my mom would have been like, but given her what I know about her, she sounds like a penny pincher. Which is something I inherited. I drive all my friends crazy because I'm unwilling to spend 50 cents more than I have to, but then I spend huge amounts at once. But that's what the small savings are for. I bought 2 laptops from saving spare change. It adds up. But then my dad's the opposite. Small amounts? Whatever. Big ones? Heh, heh, not so fast.

Wow, have fun!! :D I actually used to live in Brussels...when I was like 3. :)
Couldn't you write in a notebook?

[guanin.livejournal.com]

Cool. I might head out to Brugge while I'm there. Maybe.

I could, but it doesn't do much for me. I can do tiny amounts if I'm not near a computer, but I don't feel it does much for me withdrawal wise (he simple act of typing gives me a rush) and I really hate passing stuff to the computer. It takes way too long and, well, bores me. Besides, I always stop three sentences in and discard what I wrote altogether. There doesn't seem to be much of a point. This is one of things in which I am not old fashioned.

[g0shawk.livejournal.com]

Oh interesting. It kinda depends for me...if I don't have my computer with me I just write in this one notebook I have - I end up scratching over a lot of it, but I get some pretty good stuff sometimes.

Waaaaah, let us know how that goes! I can't remember Brussels much, but Prague was beautiful when I visited (admittedly a very long time ago).

As for Elizabeth, I haven't seen it. Worth watching, I gather? =)
