Home is Behind, the World Ahead...

Dammit, I so wish I'd been there.
Ah, well. Two more weeks.

I absolutely can't stand Grimm-Sensei. To me, she is a very unlucky mixture of Renate Künast, Gilderoy Lockhard and Prof. Umbridge (though I imagined Umbridge more like Angela Merkel *cough*). Just had to get rid of this.
At least she let us go after one hour.

Finally got the soundtrack! I love it - more than the first though less than the second. Billy Boyd rocks (even though the tune reminds me of Reis Glorios melodywise); and I absolutely adore the Gondor theme. A worthy sequel to the Bridge of Khazad-dûm and Forth Eorlingas which were my favorites the last two years... And I really can't listen to The Grey Havens without having to fight back tears. Ngah.

Found my mobile phone again - I'd left it in Cologne. Stupid me.

I'm slowly but surely going insane. Looking back on last year, where I was basically hysteric during Kanji and Reading Practice (which took place about three hours before the Premiere), this is going to be even worse. Wouldn't be at all surprised if I decide yet to go to Berlin for the tenth, just for the heck of it. Once in a lifetime, and afterwards I'll be a good girl and never so madly indulge in my fandom again.
Yeah, right.

Bought Aztec tea and Christmas cards. The guy in the tea-shop still remembered me, even though I haven't been there for over one and a half years. "Ah, you're the one who bought the last Carroux copy of the Lord of the Rings." Heh.

*nerdnerdnerd*
... long shall fade, long shall... fade.

Something I found...

... and liked. Don't know who wrote it, so I can't give credit. It's not by me, anyway. And it's long ( so it's cut. )

Bin über diesen Text gestolpert und fand ihn ziemlich gut. Weiß leider nicht, von wem er ist; jedenfalls nicht von mir. Von mir ist nur die Übersetzung. Und er ist lang ( und darum hinter einem Cut. )

By the way...

... something the RIAA might find interesting: The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King OST is, right now, on selling rank 11 at amazon.de. Eleven. That means a hell of a lot of people ordered it there. That means a hell of a lot of people purchase/ purchased it legally. And there is not even copy protection on the disc (now just don't ask how I know that). And what do we learn from it? You don't need to threaten us, and you don't need to sue us. All you have to do is make us care... and impatient.
